Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Captain Tang, who was usually the most hardworking, had been abnormally reminding everyone to rest these few days. This made the people in the bureau very surprised, and they looked at him with curiosity and suspicion.

Tang Yan swept his gaze over them and snorted lightly. “Or, are you guys going to stay behind and continue to investigate the mastermind behind The Dark Abyss?”

When everyone heard that, they immediately scattered.

Only when Feng Shanshan and Mu Qiqi were left did he say to Feng Shanshan, “You go home first. I’ll go to the chief’s office and give a briefing.”

“I’ll wait for you in the car,” Feng Shanshan said.

Mu Qiqi could not stand the sudden friendly behavior of the two and immediately called her man. Of course, she wanted to see Sheng Xiao the most at this moment because he always gave her a lot of ideas.

The deeper they went into the case, the more they saw, but at the same time, the more questions arose.

Soon, CEO Sheng’s car accurately pinpointed Mu Qiqi’s location and picked her up while Feng Shanshan sat in Tang Yan’s off-road vehicle and waited quietly.

She did not expect to see Officer Gao at this time. It was obvious that Officer Gao knew that Tang Yan was in the chief’s office, and she came to Feng Shanshan on purpose.

“Guess... what Tang Yan and the chief are talking about in the office?”

Feng Shanshan sat in the passenger seat and looked at Officer Gao with interest, wanting to know what trouble she was going to stir up again.

Officer Gao leaned against the door of the off-road vehicle, curled her lips, and told Feng Shanshan, “I told the chief about your relationship.”

After Feng Shanshan heard her words, her eyes naturally darkened.

“Do you think you will affect Tang Yan’s career?”

Feng Shanshan felt a wave of anger in her chest. She was close to getting out of the car and losing control. However, in the blink of an eye, the thought that she was Tang Yan’s girlfriend came to mind. No matter what Officer Gao did, she had no chance of getting Tang Yan.

Therefore, she burst out laughing instead.

“You really don’t understand my man, do you? He’s naturally rebellious. The more people forbid him to do something, the more he has to do it. Not to mention that we’re currently in a romantic relationship, even if we break up one day, you still won’t have a chance. Do you know why?”

Feng Shanshan stuck her head out of the car window and looked at Officer Gao. “Because he doesn’t like your style. He doesn’t like older ones.”

Officer Gao seemed to have been provoked. She stomped his feet, glared at Feng Shanshan, and left.

Although Feng Shanshan had the upper hand verbally, she was still worried about Tang Yan.

She did not know what this person would say to the chief.

..

In the chief’s office, the chief was indeed talking to Tang Yan about his private matters. “I heard that you fell in love with an intern assistant from the forensics department. Is this true?”

Tang Yan was originally reading the file. After hearing this, he paused for a second and asked the director, “Is that not possible?”

“Of course it is. But, Tang Yan, I hope that you can consider other people. After all, you are now my right-hand man. Without doubt, I hope that you have a bright future. Don’t tell me that you hope to still work in the criminal investigation field till you’re old?”

“There’s nothing wrong with that,” Tang Yan said straightforwardly.

“I hope that you will consider it some more.”

“In the future, she will also be very outstanding and won’t disappoint you. But if I speak up for outsiders, I think that you may lose more than you gain.”

The chief was stunned for a moment and pointed at Tang Yan, helpless, as he said, “Alright, I won’t care about this matter. I also believe that you are a person who keeps a clear distinction between public and private affairs. However, you should try your best to keep this matter a secret. After all, someone is about to come out of the den that you destroyed previously. This is also out of consideration for your safety.”

“Thank you, Chief. I understand.”

After the two of them finished their conversation, Tang Yan walked out of the chief’s office. At that moment, he bumped into Officer Gao at the door.

Officer Gao thought that Tang Yan was not good with words. At the very least, he looked like he was a little dull when it came to relationships.

However, Tang Yan said to her directly, “If your purpose for coming to the Jianchuan branch office is not to help us solve the case, then I can call the chief of the Internet Police and suggest that he transfer you back. Because you seem to be quite free that you even care about other people’s personal relationships.”

“I...”

“You are not qualified to be a police officer.”

Having said that, Tang Yan turned around, went downstairs, and quickly returned to the car.

Feng Shanshan saw that he looked calm, so she didn’t ask any questions. When they were halfway home, she asked, “So... you admitted it to the chief?”

“The chief is only my superior. He can’t meddle in my personal affairs.”

“You won’t fall out with the chief because of me, right?”

“Read less romance novels,” Tang Yan said coldly. “Do you think everyone in the world is a wicked old woman in novels? It still depends on what I think.”

Feng Shanshan felt relieved. She felt that she was thinking too much.

“I’m afraid that you’ll give up on me, even though my reason reminds me that it’s impossible.”

At this moment, the chief’s words crossed Tang Yan’s mind, because the chief was the one who reminded him that the group of people he had gotten arrested was about to be released.

He was worried about Feng Shanshan’s safety.

“If one day I really disappear from your sight without saying a word, then I’ll definitely be doing something very important. You just have to wait patiently, because even if I have to crawl... I’ll crawl back to your side.”

After Feng Shanshan heard this, she looked at Tang Yan in surprise.

This person was serious, she knew that.

So, she was relieved.

“Although I don’t know where my courage comes from, I do understand that you as Tang Yan are willing to sacrifice your life to solve cases. I will not stop you. On the contrary, I am very infatuated with you. So, you only need to remember that I am your woman.”

Tang Yan listened to her quietly. Although he did not say anything, he was greatly touched.

This woman was really worthy of a man’s soul.

Therefore, the first thing he did when he returned home was to press this woman to the bathroom and kiss her from top to toe.

..

Late at night, at Banyan Courtyard.

After Mu Qiqi took a shower, she sat in front of the computer in a daze because she just could not figure out how the people behind the forum had managed to control those young people and make them willingly give up their lives.

Sheng Xiao came out of the bathroom in his pajamas.

Seeing that Mu Qiqi was still in a daze, he immediately went up to her and tugged at her collar. “You said that you would let me do whatever I want. Isn’t it time to fulfill your promise now?”

Mu Qiqi turned around and hurriedly hugged Sheng Xiao. “Xiao Xiao, stop fooling around. Wait until I figure this out.”

“Is investigating a case more important or am I more important?”

“You...” Mu Qiqi immediately answered. “But I need you now...”
