Chapter 356 - A Wonderful Moment (2/2)
“Mm? What do you mean?”
“I’ve always thought that the photography skills of men who have strange tastes in women’s clothing… would be terrible!”
“Of course.” Sir Little Bai raised his eyebrows. “In ten thousand such men, only one is good. Congratulations to you, baby, for that one in ten thousand, is me!”
“…” Xiang Wan was stunned for a moment. “Don’t you feel awkward singing your own praises like this?”
“No, not the slightest bit!” Bai Muchuan looked serious. “Actually, you can’t blame the rest of the men.”
“Why do you say that?”
Bai Muchuan’s sexy lips curved into a half-smile. That smile unexpectedly enchanted Xiang Wan to not react for a moment.
“This is because… even if they have great skills, it will only work if they have good looks!”
Hahaha!
Xiang Wan laughed heartily again. “Are you talking about yourself?”
Bai Muchuan pinched her face. “Silly, I’m talking about both of us!”
Cough! Xiang Wan stopped laughing and nodded her head. “In that case, then I must agree with your point!”
Bai Muchuan patted her head and put his hand on her waist. “Let’s go now, we, the two good-looking ones, should go and have our lunch.”
“Goodbye, Wen Xin Nunnery!”
“… Goodbye, Wen Xin Mountain!”
“Goodbye, Wen Xin Town!”
…
When they were leaving the town, the hotel owner sent them off at the entrance with teary eyes.
He held Quan Shaoteng’s hands; his face was full of reluctance…
When they were settling the final bill with the owner, Quan Shaoteng showed the owner the page of the online store that sold the same series of the high-valued watch he was wearing with a serious expression…
“Young brother, you should visit here more often!”
Quan Shaoteng stroked his shiny ear stud.
“Sure… but you’d better not hope for us to come!”
The hotel owner could not stop looking at his watch. “Why?”
Quan Shaoteng showed a ravishing smile at the owner.
“If it’s not because of a crime, who would want to come to such a remote place and endure such cold winds?”
The hotel owner’s face distorted into a grimace. “… Please take your leave! Goodbye!”
…
Although the snow had stopped, the road was still tough to drive on.
The young Salimu who had never undergone military training was like a delicate baby who cried out in pain throughout the journey when he was carried out of the hotel.
Hence, Bai Muchuan had to order everyone to reduce their speed…
His decision made Quan Shaoteng felt like a knife slicing his heart. He had wholeheartedly wanted to return to Nanmu City as soon as possible, so he could enjoy a hot water bath and change into a set of fresh, clean clothes.
“That young fellow Salimu, we should ‘throw’ him to the Special Police Force in the Capital for a few months of training?”
He had said that to Bai Muchuan.
It was actually a fair suggestion.
Salimu had his forte, but he was timid and afraid of pain. Going ahead, they would not know what cases they might encounter; bringing Salimu along would be equivalent to bringing along a kid with them since he seemed to ask for a lot of attention…
“No! No!” Salimu immediately replied before Bai Muchuan said anything and he was pulling a long face. “Captain Bai, after all I’ve done to save all of you, you won’t be treating me like this, right?”
Bai Muchuan had an unconcerned look. “How did you know?”
Salimu instantly showed a smile. “I know you’re the kindest…”
Kind, huh!? It’s this word again.
Bai Muchuan touched his face and seemed to be deliberating over it.
“Generally, for officers who have done well in missions, the organization would encourage them to keep improving themselves. In this way, they would have better advancements in future…”
“How to keep improving?” An expectant Salimu pricked up his ears.
“Of course, it’s to go for a few months training with the Special Police Force!”
“Ahhhh…. No!”
…
The dull and boring journey became interesting because of Salimu.
They would chit chat and someone would tease Salimu…
It was Quan Shaoteng who seemed to enjoy doing so.
However, everyone inside the SUV benefited from it as they guffawed from the jokes.
When their SUV got out of Wen Xin Town and drove for dozens of miles, the roads were no longer as wet and slippery.
The area they were now cruising along did not have snow.
They could then accelerate as the road condition improved.
However, by the time they arrived in Nanmu City, it was already dark.
Nanmu Hospital.
The signboard of the hospital was clear and bright at night.
One could see it from afar in the dimly lit city of Nanmu.
When they stopped their SUV in front of the hospital, everyone saw Tu Liang who was standing under the street light.
The injuries he suffered were burns, open wounds, and the like due to the whip. Besides recuperating for two days, he had been working on the case.
He received news from them that Salimu would be sent to this hospital, so Tu Liang had already informed the hospital to standby and waited for them.
He was indeed worthy of the title of the Butler of Serious Crime Division One!
Bai Muchuan was the first to hop off the SUV. He gave Tu Liang a hug and gave a few pats on his back.
“Brother, you’ve worked hard!”
Tu Liang felt his eyes warm. “Everyone has worked hard too!”
Everyone there had experienced a difficult period in their life for what happened for the past few days.
Everyone gave each other friendly hugs but did not say more.
After Salimu was carried into the hospital, Tu Liang looked at Bai Muchuan.
“Boss, all of you can return to the hotel to rest. I will be here.”
“Mm!” Bai Muchuan patted him on the arm. “I’ll leave him to you now!”
Tu Liang smiled then showed a serious expression. “Meng Chi is at Nanmu Hotel. Just 10 minutes ago, he called me up to ask when you will be coming back to Nanmu.”
Bai Muchuan sneered, “What did he want?”
Tu Liang replied, “He said, he wanted to talk to you!”
