Chapter 614 - You Mustn’t Know How Charming You Are

Tang Yan stopped talking and this irritated Feng Shanshan even more.

“Apart from the cases, you seem to be silent on everything. You do things by halves and say things by halves. Aren’t you tired?”

“I’m used to it.”

Alright, Feng Shanshan felt as if she was punching at a soft cotton pillow. It was meaningless.

“Tang Yan, the woman who marries you will surely die of exhaustion!”

After that, Feng Shanshan looked out of the window angrily and stopped having any interaction with him. It was so hard to pry this man’s mouth open. If he did not want to open his mouth, she would just let him suffocate himself.

After returning to the police station, even the professor could see that Feng Shanshan was still angry. “Why are you so angry?”

“Professor, does Tang Yan always dislike interacting with people?

The professor couldn’t help laughing. “Because of him?”

“I find it tiring interacting with him.”

“You can’t blame him for that. After graduating from the police academy, he worked as an undercover agent in a drug gang for a year. He has always been a quiet boy. And after that year, he became even quieter and more thoughtful. When he was a spy, he was forced to do many things he was unwilling to do. Although he managed to wipe out the whole gang in the end, he became very gloomy afterward. And the few years after that, he was basically a workaholic. He never lets people know about his thoughts and is always alone. He won’t say the thing you want to hear from him like a normal man. He is someone who will support the sky alone if it collapses. So, it’s indeed a bit tiring when a normal person interacts with him. And because of this, all his relationships did not go smoothly. He was either betrayed or cheated on.”

“Didn’t you say he hasn’t got a girlfriend?”

“He doesn’t have one now. It has been several years since he had a girlfriend,” said the professor. “Have you misunderstood anything about him when he first came? He likes to pretend to be an innocent man when he goes to a new place. It’s a habit he developed while working undercover. Perhaps he felt that he can get along with you guys better that way. If I have said anything that made you misunderstand, I’m sorry. I was just trying to make him look a bit more friendly. Since you don’t like him, then knowing this doesn’t matter anymore.”

Feng Shanshan did not tell the professor that she had always thought that Tang Yan had a low EQ and was an innocent man.

“So what happened to his last girlfriend?”

“That boy was too busy and so she cheated on him and got another man. Then, she was infected by a disease and died,” the professor told her casually. “And so, he has been alone until now. it can’t be helped. After knowing this, he used his money to treat this girl. After she passed away, he made her a gravestone and still visits her occasionally.”

Feng Shanshan fell into silence after listening.

She felt that she was somehow too pretentious. In Tang Yan’s eyes, was she a bratty woman?

That’s why he could resume work the next day after being shot and could ignore his pain directly.

Thinking of this, Feng Shanshan felt that the pain she had suffered was nothing compared to his.

She was in distress and stopped believing in love just after being hurt by a man. When Tang Yan was betrayed, he still wanted to get treatment for her.

In his mind, what did feelings mean to him?

Feng Shanshan felt that she could not get any closer to Tang Yan anymore. This man was a blackhole. The more she explored, the more she couldn’t find answers, and the more she wanted to go deep into it.

...

In the evening, Sheng Xiao wanted to call Mu Qiqi when he got off work to ask her where she was. Instead, he received a call from Su Zipei. “Young Master Sheng, are you free? I’ve encountered some problems here. Can you come here for a bit? I can’t tell Qiqi about this.”

“Okay, I’ll be there in half an hour,” said Sheng Xiao.

“Sorry to trouble you.”

Su Zipei seldom called him, unless it was about Mu Qiqi.

This also proved Su Zipei was really in trouble that she had to call him for help.

So, he called Mu Qiqi. “Where are you?”

“At the police station,” Mu Qiqi said casually.

“When are you coming home? I’ll let Xu Che fetch you.”

“I might be late, maybe after nine,” said Mu Qiqi. “What’s the matter?”

“Nothing. You go on.”

Having said that, Sheng Xiao ended the call and drove to the villa.

On the other side, Mu Qiqi looked at her aunt. “He’s coming.”

“It’s dark and it may snow soon. We should have reminded him to be careful.” Su Zipei patted Mu Qiqi’s cheeks. “Go get ready.”

This time, Sheng Xiao did not know that it was the little one’s trick for real. He was still thinking that Su Zipei was in trouble.

When he rushed to the villa, he found the courtyard decorated with small light bulbs, blinking like stars. And at the door, there was a dining car, on the hood of which were red roses and scented candles.

This was a small paradise.

Opposite the dining car, there was a love letter written by Mu Qiqi.

Sheng Xiao chuckled. He did not expect the ritual he was anticipating to be happening now.

However, at that moment, Mu Qiqi was not there. There was an arrow pointing to the location where the love letter was hung.

Sheng Xiao walked to the letter and took it down. He was not expecting the letter to be written by Mu Qiqi, with the feelings she had at the time when she wanted to confess to him.

“Xiao... Brother? Actually, I am more willing to call you Xiaoxiao. But I know you wouldn’t have liked a young girl like me. You brought me here just because I saved you once. You mustn’t know charming you are. At first, I thought I should be focusing on how to deal with Mu Tangxue every day and night after my rebirth, but I realized that I am more attached to you. I want to stay close to you more. I have a crush on you. You mustn’t know about this, right? I want you to know, but I’m afraid that you might know. If you don’t like me, or even hate me, what should I do? And I’m scared that Aunt will know. I’m scared that she will think that I will destroy my life savior when I fall for you. Every time I see you, I want to go near you. I even dream of you, dreaming of intimacy with you. But, you’re so unpredictable and uncontrollable. Even if I work hard for another ten thousand years, I won’t be able to catch up with you, right? This are just my one-sided thoughts. Because I like you, to the extent that I want to shout it out loud. I really can’t control myself. But I’m worried that you will hate me once you know about this. If you don’t hate me, then open the door to the house. If you hate me, then just consider me having a beautiful dream.”

Sheng Xiao’s heart became mush after reading the letter. He revealed Mu Qiqi’s feelings directly that time, without giving her any chance to write a letter to him.

So, was she making up for his regret?
