Pan Zhenghui's mouth twitched and he made an act of threatening to hit him. ”What nonsense are you talking about? Alright, those in our industry all hope for peace in the world. That way, we won't have so much trouble.”

”Chief, if there's peace in the world, do you think the higher-ups will still need us to come to work?”

”That's true. Anyway, there are always endless cases to investigate. It's like that all the time. Everyone, get your spirits up. You'll all have a new case soon.” With that, Pan Zhenghui left.

An Xiaoning got up and closed the door. Reaching out to grab a bunch of melon seeds, she sat on the chair and stared at her other three members. ”So, during this half a month when I was locked up, what were the three of you busy with?”

”We had to work for the Serious Crimes Investigation Unit.” Ma Jianguo sighed. ”Even then, we were still despised by them. Team Leader, when you were locked up, do you know what Officer Zhang, the team leader of the Serious Crimes Investigation Unit, said about it?”

”What did he say?”

Ma Jianguo replied in a low voice, ”He was full of bitterness towards you, and his tone was completely pessimistic about your situation. He said you were in a big mess and our group would be disbanded.” Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

”Oh? I see,” An Xiaoning replied lightly. ”Don't take it to heart, let him say what he wants. We'll use our actions to prove to him that this group will not be disbanded.”

”Yes, Team Leader is the most powerful!”

”Give me a break. Let's wait for the Chief to give us a new case, then we'll need to start working again after a short rest.”

”Team Leader An, there's someone looking for you.” The door was pushed open, and a police officer came to inform her.

”Who?”

”It's Mrs. Jin.”

At present, news of Mr. and Mrs. Jin's divorce was not yet known to the public. She placed the melon seeds on the table and walked out.

Outside, she saw Mrs. Jin's figure.

”Why are you looking for me?”

Mrs. Jin looked at her and found it difficult to open up. She hesitated for a long time. An Xiaoning already expected what she wanted to say, so she did not hurry her either and just stood there waiting.

”That… Xiaoning…” Mrs. Jin still opened up eventually. ”If you can get him out, I won't interfere in your and Qingyan's relationship anymore, regardless of whether you can have children or not. I won't meddle in it anymore.”

”…” An Xiaoning placed her hands in her pocket. She did not find what she said enticing at all. ”Although you're still Qingyan's mother, you're no longer the Madam of the Jin family. I haven't married him yet, but even if I do, your words won't have any effect. If there's nothing else, I'm going back in.”

”Can you just take it that I'm begging you?”

”I'm sorry, the case has already been set in stone. I can't do anything about it.” An Xiaoning turned to leave. Regarding this matter, she had nothing much to say.

”Xiaoning…” Mrs. Jin stood there in disbelief. It seemed like the end of the world to her. She had gone to find everyone she could, but the result was still the same.

An Xiaoning had her gaze fixed ahead as she walked back in, very soon disappearing amongst the people in the cafeteria.
