Chapter 855 - Misinterpretation (2/2)
Xu Long sighs inside and gives Lin Hui a severe expression.
'Sh. Everything will be fine.'
'...'
Oblivious to the two subordinates' unspoken conversation, Lu Tian put Chief Ren in a distraught position. He (Chief Ren) decides not to drag on this misunderstanding and puts up the white flag.
”When I said this is a misunderstanding, it really is.”
He leans forward and places his cup of tea on the table. He then pours himself some more tea.
”No one here is in trouble, so can you give this old man a little face?”
At first, he was confused as to why Lu Tian was here, but now he knew the reason.
Based on his (Lu Tian) overprotective behavior, it can only mean he (Lu Tian) thought he (Chief Ren) was trying to find pin something on Yue Ling.
”You can put that dangerous aura of yours away now.”
Lu Tian was never to take words lightly. He parts his lips to ask why his wife was brought in, but he suddenly feels the softness of a familiar touch on his hand.
The darkness that clouded his judgment disappears, and he looks at the owner of the hand.
His eyes gaze into the bluish-green eyes that he loves, and his entire being softens like melted butter.
Yue Ling held his hand and smiled up at him.
”Tian, what Chief Ren is saying is true.”
Seeing that her words had subdued the anger in him, she goes on to explain the situation.
”No one is in trouble. Lin Hui is here to write a statement for an incident he was involved in while I'm here to visit an elder.”
Hearing her response and her calm expression. Lu Tian was able to sigh in relief.
He sat down on the empty chair next to her without letting go of her hand.
”You should have told me. Do you know how worried I was when Xu Long told me that you came to the police station?”
Yue Ling couldn't help but chuckle at him. She never expected something like this would make him so worrisome.
”I'm sorry. I'll tell you from now on.”
”Ahem.”
From across the couple, Chief Ren interrupts with a cough. His cheek was vaguely pink, and one could see the awkwardness in his expression.
”Young people nowadays are so straightforward.”
He murmurs to himself and clears his throat. He looks at Lin Hui and decides not to waste any more time.
”Hui, I was going to take in your statement, but you can go find Officer Xin and write your statement. I'll read it later.”
Lin Hui was rooted in his seat with heavy eyes staring straight at Xu Long. He had been going around in his head how such a scene unfolded.
However, it turned out, he and Chief Ren almost suffered from Lu Tian's wrath, all because of Xu Long's misinterpretation.
He shakes his head and follows Chief Ren's words. He stood up to leave the room but didn't forget to drag Xu Long out with him.
Lin Hui: ”Be thankful we were able to clear up this misunderstanding.”
Xu long: ”Hey, a thank you would be nice. I could have died on the way here. Besides, how was I supposed to know that this was all a misunderstanding? You hung up on me before I could ask any questions. So if anyone is to blame, it's you.”
Ignoring the two men's conversation, Lu Tian kept a stern expression but looked at Chief Ren. He felt regretful for what he did and awkwardly smiles.
”I apologize for your door. I will compensate you with a new one.”
Chief Ren was just about to take a sip of his tea when he choked at Lu Tian's sudden apology. He pats his chest and stares at the man with uncertainty.
'Who is this young man? Is he really Lu Tian? The same Lu Tian who never apologizes to anyone. Is he smiling? Oh God, he is smiling!'
He subconsciously glances at Yue Ling, and seeing that Lu Tian was shamelessly holding her hand, he chuckles while shaking his head.
'I see. Love can really change a person.. Look at what it's done to Lu boy.'
