C31 (2/2)
Jian Fan couldn't help but raise his eyelids to look into his fierce eyes. The only thing remaining in his numb pupils was intense hatred. ”I don't dare.”
These three words tore apart all of her strength and self-esteem.
”Very good. If you had been so obedient earlier, you wouldn't have had to suffer so much.” Ling Chen released the hand that was holding her chin, then picked her up and carried her towards the bedroom.
Everything was like a movie with the curtain falling. After the people left, everything was as calm as if it had never happened.
After the kingone quietened down, Jane Fan was carried to the bathroom by Ling Chen and placed in the massage tub.
He threw away her cotton pajamas and adjusted the water, filling the tub with warm water in no time.
Jane Fan was like a puppet, at his mercy.
”Is the water warm enough?” Ling Chen started the shower, washing her hair. Her gentle movements and gentle expression made it seem as if she had suddenly become a completely different person.
Jian Fan stared at him blankly. He felt a chill coming from the bottom of his feet that went all the way down to his scalp. He was so scary.
”Is it appropriate?” Ling Chen asked again, his tone light.
Jian Fan nodded his head like a frightened deer, ”Yes.”
Ling Chen raised his eyebrows and smiled, and a few stars appeared in his eyes. ”I like your obedient look.” No matter how ruthless she was in carrying out her mission, she was still a woman, a woman who always believed herself to be an emissary of justice. This was her weakness, and he could see through it with one glance.
After showering, Ling Chen laid her down on the bed, a towel under her wet hair, all of it hanging over the bed. He picked up the hair dryer, turned on the warm wind, and blew on her hair.
His technique was not considered good, but the warm wind caused the coldness on Jian Fan's body to ease down slightly.
His mood was so jittery that she couldn't keep up with it. So much so that even though she thought that she had thought it through thoroughly and was confident of winning, she was still unable to escape his Fiery Eyes of Truth. She was like a tiny ant in his huge Tathagata palm. She could be crushed to pieces at any moment just because he was unhappy.
The next morning, while Ling Chen was still eating breakfast, Yan Qirui, the Chief of the Serious Cases Department, came in with a search warrant and a team of police officers.
Ling Chen ate slowly without showing any signs of emotion.
”Young Master Chen, I have a case that I would like to ask you to cooperate with me in my investigation.” The police chief displayed the search warrant in his hand with a dignified posture.
When they returned to the police station last night, someone had already placed a smartphone on the desk of the officer on duty. It contained a video containing important information. The guard said the person who delivered the phone was a scavenger, and that when they found him in the park early in the morning by surveillance, he said it was a woman who asked him to give it to her.
”Oh?” Ling Chen slowly put down the spoon and wiped his mouth: ”What do I need to trouble Director Yan to come and see personally? If there's anything you need to know, wouldn't it be easier for me to go over myself? ”
”You are too courteous, Young Master Chen.” Yan Qirui did not bother with him and went straight to the point. ”Last night, there was an important arms smuggling incident at the Lishui Sand Field on the shore of the shallow river. I saw you at the scene, how do you explain that? ”
”Heh.” Ling Chen stood up, pointed at his own face and could not help but laugh. ”You saw me? Are you sure that the person you saw was me? ”
Ling Chen was not unfamiliar with Yan Qirui. They had fought before. Their homicide squad had been keeping an eye on him, waiting for an opportunity to get hold of him. It was a pity that they were still lacking in a single move. After so many years, they still hadn't found anything on him.
Yan Qirui was slightly annoyed by his teasing. ”Whether it is you or not, you will know after coming back with me to the police station. There's a piece of evidence in the Bureau that still needs Young Master Chen to personally verify. ”
”Okay, no problem. I am a good citizen who follows the law and am extremely willing to cooperate with your law enforcement efforts. ” He turned his face to the wall next to him. ”Get Marvin to get me a lawyer.”
”Please, Young Master Chen.” Yan Qirui stepped aside. Ling Chen was a first-class player in Shallow Water City's black and white streets. Without any concrete evidence, he didn't dare to go too far, even though he had been trying to catch him.
Ling Chen followed him into the car and headed for the police station in Shallow Water City.
When Jane Fan saw them leave, she went downstairs. Ling Chen had told her not to show her face this morning. He was really well-prepared and accurate in everything he did. The investigation this time wouldn't be too painful, he would be able to get out soon.
”Joy?” Jian Fan looked at the pale face of the young man in joy and felt very worried.
”Miss Jane, are you awake?” Lian Xi, as usual, greeted her with a smile.
”You guys …” She felt a pang in her heart. It was not a good feeling. They must have suffered a great deal of trauma in their hearts.
”Miss, please eat breakfast. I've already prepared it.” Lian Xi seemed to be afraid of bringing back painful memories as he hastily changed the topic.
Fine, let it all pass. They won't be in pain if they don't remember. All she could do was hide her sharp thorns and use a softer method to achieve her unwavering determination. They were innocent, and she could no longer allow innocence to be a constraint on her.
”En, I'm hungry. I want to drink the soup from Xi Er's cooker.” Jian Fan softened his expression and changed his expression. He had to start from every single detail of his life, otherwise, it would be hard for him to escape from Ling Chen's golden eyes.
Lian Xi seemed to heave a sigh of relief. A smile once again appeared in his innocent eyes: ”Please sit. I'll go get it for you.”
After Lian Pang finished his call, Ma Wen and Song Chengyou received the news and were prepared to rush to the police station.
