“Kiki? Kiki?” Mu Yu desperately wanted to follow her but was stopped by the policeman who was cordoning off the area. “Please stay back. This building is temporarily…”
“She is Doctor Mu from the forensic lab,” Liu Xiaofan who just got out of the car pointed at Mu Yu, introducing her to the policeman.
“Oh, Doctor Mu. I’m sorry.” The policeman immediately made way for her.
“What’s the situation here?” While hurriedly walking toward the apartment block, Mu Yu anxiously asked Liu Xiaofan.
“Wang Linhua knocked Nie Xiaoxiang unconscious and took Little Guo hostage.”
“Little Guo?”
“Yes, he’s the four-year-old son of Zhao Yongli and Nie Xiaoxiang. Little Guo is his nickname.”
Her predictions came true after all. She took a deep breath and quickly followed up, “Why is he holding the kid hostage?”
Liu Xiaofan shook her head. “I’m not sure about the details. Anyway, right after I shared Chie
In Wang Linhua’s hand was a body checkup report from a hospital in An City. The report clearly stated that the patient tested positive for HIV; the patient’s name was Luo Jiahua, which was Kiki’s real name.It took Wang Linhua a long time to collect himself, and with a trembling voice, he commented, “I heard that some HIV-positive patients live up to ten or twenty more years.”Kiki only shook her head at him. “The doctor says that I have three months tops.”“No! How is that possible? How did that happen?” Wang Linhua grabbed his hair and yelled in sorrow and disbelief.“Dad…” Kiki was at a loss for words to comfort her grief-stricken father, and she ran up to give him a hug while crying. The father and daughter hugged each other and cried hard.“Dad, promise me that you’ll live well. Okay? Please don’t get involved in Zhao Yongli’s case. I beg you,” Kiki pleaded to him in tears. He let go of her and wiped away her tear
"Don't move!""Little Guo!""No!""Dad!""Don’t come close!" Wang Linhua had shoved Kiki away and glared at Rong Jian and the rest. "Nobody can stop me today!""Dad!""You stay away too!" he yelled at Kiki. "Today, I'll end things with the Zhao Family!""Dad, don't do it…""Hua, listen to me!" Due to his excessive movements, his injured hand bled even more and was scary to look at, especially for Kiki, who had been staring at his hand and crying nonstop.Feeling pained and scared, Nie Xiaoxiang had fainted upon hearing Wang Linhua's declaration. Mu Yu and Liu Xiaofan were busy performing first aid on her."He's just an innocent child! He's got nothing to do with this!" Rong Jian stared angrily at Wang Linhua, who was ready to harm his hostage."Innocent child?" Wang Linhua sneered. "What about Hua? Isn't she an innocent child too? What right
“Chief Rong, look out!” When everyone screamed in unison, Rong Jian stood frozen on the ground, shaken by the fact that he’d killed Luo Mingan. He had only wanted to prevent Luo Mingan from hurting Little Guo and did not intend to take his life.Rong Jian found Zhao Yongli and Sun Meilan utterly despicable, and he had much sympathy for the father and daughter of the Luo Family. However, he was a police officer who could only educate the public to protect themselves with the help of the law, and he could not allow for criminal activities. Moreover, the hostage whom Luo Mingan planned to hurt was an innocent four-year-old. He fired the shot out of desperation.Seeing that the sharp blade in Kiki’s hand was about to pierce into Rong Jian’s chest, Mu Yu, who was the nearest to him, flung herself on him.“Yu!”A loud gunshot and a scream were heard. The bullet hit Kiki’s leg, and she promptly fell onto the ground about a meter away from
“What? Luo Mingan was not the murderer? H-How is that possible?” Liu Xiaofan’s eyes widened in disbelief. “But he admitted to it! He even turned in the murder weapons!”Mu Yu wiped away her tears and explained, “There’s no fingerprints on the blade, so there’s a possibility that it’s not the weapon.”“He had a very strong anti-reconnaissance ability. He would have wiped away the fingerprints when he got back from the murder. Anyway, the murder weapon he handed in was shaped similarly like the one used at the scene. If he was not the murderer, how could he have submitted a similar murder weapon? If he was not the murderer, why would he admit to it? He’d get the death sentence for it!” Liu Xiaofan was puzzled.Mu Yu only replied with a heavy sigh as she looked at her colleagues moving away Luo Mingan and Kiki’s bodies through teary eyes. She really had no mood to explain to Liu Xiaofan.Sensing her sadness, Qin Jinhuan hugged her gen
“Who was that? Mu Yu immediately asked. “Do you remember Linda? She’s Kiki’s good friend.”“Yes! I remember Kiki had been staying at her home recently.”“Yes. She’s in a hurry to meet me probably because she has something to tell me about Kiki,” Rong Jian responded while heading toward the entrance of the rooftop. Mu Yu and Qin Jinhuan immediately followed up.“Yu, it’s almost dawn. Just head home with Huan and rest,” Rong Jian suggested when they entered the elevator.“I want to…”“You need rest!” Qin Jinhuan rudely cut her off. “Huan also needs to work in the morning.” Rong Jian helped to persuade her, but instead she suggested, “Huan, why don’t you go home? Chief Rong and I…”“No!” Qin Jinhuan gripped her hand tightly and said firmly without any room for discussion. “Yu, Linda has stated that she only wanted to see me. Even if you follow me back, you cannot meet
“She told us that if something happened to her, we should hand this to you.” Tears streamed down Linda’s face.“Stop crying. Your makeup is going to be ruined, and you’ll look ugly.” Abby wanted to wipe away Linda’s tears but she lifted her hand toward herself instead to wipe away her own tears.“I can’t hold it back too,” Eve declared and promptly burst into tears. Her make-up was instantly running, looking like a mess.“What’s the point of holding back?” Jin was sobbing loudly. “Who cares if we look ugly? There are no customers around here.”“But Chief Rong is here!” Abby hid her face behind her hands and retorted between sniffles.“Chief Rong is not a customer. It doesn’t matter if he sees us like this.” Even though Jin sounded unbothered, she followed Abby and hid her face while carefully wiping away her tears.“Who knows one day Chief Rong would visit Camphor Forest?”Rong Jian, who was d
“Yihan? Why are you here?” Astonished, Mu Yu stared at Xin Yihan who had appeared behind her.“I’m here to get breakfast.” He looked at her with a smile. But his house was a twenty-minute drive from the breakfast place.“Xiaotian loves the custard bun and red date soy milk from here. Are you here to buy breakfast for Young Master Qin?” Xin Yihan saw her taking the two portions of exceptionally hearty breakfast, and he gave her a look with conflicted emotions.“No, no, I’m buying for my colleagues.” Knowing that Xin Yihan was concerned about her, she was worried that she’d give off a wrong expression of mistreatment by the Qin Family. Xin Yihan checked his watch and asked doubtfully, “Are you going to work this early?”“I’m not going to work. It happened that some acquaintances of mine passed away. Their burial is today and I planned to pay a visit. I’m bringing breakfast for my colleagues on the way,” Mu Yu glossed over the details
Mu Yu stared at the two in shock. “Do you know each other?”Xin Yihan took a few glances at Eve and shook his head in the end. “I don’t recall. Did you mistake me for someone else?”“No, cute guy, we…”“That’s enough! How could you even have the mood to chat up guys?” Linda irritatedly shut Eve down. Eve shrugged and grinned at Xin Yihan before she hurriedly rejoined the queue of people.Looking at the group, Mu Yu hurriedly whispered to Xin Yihan, “Yihan, you should head home now. I will ride my colleague’s car later.”“I don’t have anything in the morning. I will head in and pay my respect to the deceased. After hearing their story, I feel sorry for them.”Since Xin Yihan looked touched, Mu Yu did not object to his participation. She nodded and ran up to the others with him. Everyone proceeded to the grave plot that was allocated for Luo Mingan and Kiki. Under the coordination between Rong Jian and his m
"You ...""Dad, mom, you guys go back first," Shang Qi Qiang stopped his father who was about to have a seizure, and turned to Qin Jinhuan to apologize, "Big brother, a thousand mistakes are my fault, you let me meet Xiao Xi, I'll make amends to her and beg for her forgiveness.""Why are you the one making amends and begging for her forgiveness? It's not like she caused the accident! She caused it herself, okay?" Chen Juan was very dissatisfied with her son's words and immediately spoke out angrily, "It was her own fault that she deliberately found a reason to quarrel with you in the middle of the night and then ran out to meet another man before she got into the accident! Wasn't she at fault?"Chen Juan said while presenting the cell phone page about the intimate contact between Qin Chengxi and Fu Shaoyan to Qin Jinhuan and Mu Yu to see, afraid that they do not know as if, completely ignoring the side of the husband and son who made all kinds of winks.Mu Ye
"Sister-in-law, go and pull my brother, but you can't ...""I know I know." Muyi pressed her to lie down, "You don't want to hurt the wound!""Don't mind me, I'm fine!""Okay, okay, I'll go persuade your brother." Knowing that she was in a hurry, Mu Yu waited for her to lie down and then ran out and instructed the nurse who had made special arrangements to take care of Qin Chengxi before leaving in a hurry.Seeing that Qin Jinhuan's figure had long since disappeared from the elevator entrance, she hurriedly called him and, upon learning that he was in the underground parking lot, immediately ordered him to wait for her to go down."What the hell is going on? Wasn't Shang Qi always good to Xiao Xi before?" Mu Yu expressed her disbelief after getting into Qin Jinhuan's car."That's for Shang Qi to ask." Qin Jinhuan glanced grimly at Bian Zijun.Bian Zijun answered, "I've already gotten through to Mr. Shang, and he said that he'll immediately a
Qin Chengxi had never actually thought of leaving the Shang family because she never thought she would have such a rigid side."Xiao Xi ah, you're too honest and have a weak nature, your brother is always worried that you'll be bullied outside, and always asked me to advise you to put on a stronger personality. You are a member of the Qin family, you should show the Qin family's vigor. Your brother said, no matter when, no matter where, no matter what happens, he will always be your strongest backing. You have to memorize these words."Her ears rang with the words her sister-in-law had spoken to her so eloquently today.Previously, she had been silently putting up with Chen Juan's mouthiness in the Shang family because of Shang Qi, and now that Shang Qi was talking to her in such a tone, what reason did she have to put up with them?Today she was going to show them that she, Qin Chengxi, wasn't as weak as they thought, and that she also had a personality!
"Isn't it just a picture? Making a big deal out of it is not something the Hoshi I know would do!""Is this just a picture in your eyes? Is it not your disloyalty to our relationship?""When have I ever been unfaithful to our relationship? Hoshi, you're breaking my heart when you say things like that, do you understand?""Your attitude breaks my heart even more!""My attitude ..." Seeing her crying more and more sad, he only had to give in, "Okay, okay, it's my fault, I'll make amends to you, I'll apologize to you, okay?""It would have been your fault. Think about it another way, if the picture was of me with another man ...""No ifs!" He immediately interrupted her with a scowl."You know to be angry too.""Haven't I already admitted my mistake?""You drove Joey Zhi Yun.""No way!" Shang Qi refused Qin Chengxi without even thinking, "I need her badly now!"Qin Chengxi bit her lip, "So do you need me?""That's
Seeing that it was Chi Sihui's caller, he wanted to not answer it, but after a moment's hesitation, he answered it.In the end, the two families were family friends, and he and she had grown up together as little ones."Shangqi, where are you?" As soon as the phone was connected, Chi Sihui's petite voice came through."What is it?" He asked back, faintly."Let's have dinner together, we haven't seen each other in a long time.""Not available.""Alright, alright, don't be angry with me, I invited you to dinner today just to apologize to you.""Apologize to me? Isn't it an apology for Hoshi?""To her?" Chi Sihui's voice was through contempt, but she didn't continue, turning to say, "I'll give her an apology, but I only want to see you today. Come on, I've reserved a seat at the Fate Restaurant.""No time.""Eh!" Seemingly knowing that he was about to hang up the phone, Chi Sihui immediately exclaimed, "You're going home for d
"Uncle, Auntie."With Shangqi gone, Qin Chengxi has no one to rely on, and Chen Juan makes her apprehensive.Chen Juan didn't enter the room either, but just looked at her with a face full of compassionate concern,"Xiao Xi ah, how's your body toning up these days? Why are you getting thinner and thinner?""I've been a little sick the last few days, so I've been eating very little. Always sleepy."Afraid that she would bring up another topic that she couldn't face, Qin Chengxi made a gesture of yawning, looking really sleepy, hoping that it would make her realize that she was leaving."You can't even take care of yourself, how can I expect you to take care of Sang-ki in the future?"Qin Chengxi wanted to say, "Shangqi will take care of herself," but thought better of it and smiled dryly, "I'll get my body well as soon as possible. Don't worry, uncle.""You just can't carry on the flavor for the Shang family even after you've toned up your bod
"Eh! Shangqi, let go!" Qin Chengxi struggled sharply."Shang, Mr. Shang?"The group of people who came in originally wanted to ask Qin Chengxi to look into the break because there was an argument, but they didn't expect to run into this scene, so they were all embarrassed and subconsciously tried to turn away."If you're here, why don't you finish before you leave?"The one who spoke, Shang Qi, at this time he had let go of Qin Chengxi, but his hand was still on her shoulder, as if he was swearing a kind of sovereignty, as if he was saying, you guys can watch out, your boss is my daughter-in-law, if you dare to bully her, you are bullying me.The corners of Qin Chengxi's mouth twitched as he looked at him unnaturally, but he let him.The crowd exited her office immediately after saying what they had to say briefly and succinctly.He grinned and held her hand as he took her out to dinner.She finally smiled at the thought.Since s
Qin Chengxi answered Mu Yan's call.She knew that her sister-in-law was worried about her situation, and immediately stated that she had the support of Shang Qi as well as the Shang family's parents, and only then did Mu Yan say nothing, and advised her a few more times to take care of her health."I know, I'll go back in a few days to see you and Redeemer. I miss Redeemer." She responded with feigned relief."Isn't it easy to miss her? I'll come home from work and bring her to video you.""Okay, that's a deal."A few more words were exchanged before she hung up.When he came back to the office again, Sang-ki was already buried in papers.Looking at him, who had also lost weight, she felt both guilty and heartbroken.She's the one who dragged Sang-gi down.If it weren't for her, the papers in front of him wouldn't have accumulated like a mountain.Meetings were pushed back and forth, and some matters that needed to be handl
"Brother! Don't!"Qin Chengxi was also terrified and cried as she went up to beg Qin Jinhuan.Although she has been in her heart not ashamed of what her parents did, but in the end is her biological parents, she can not sit back and do nothing, not to mention the grandfather's corpse is not yet cold, and in any case the family can not be so farce."Ah Huan, calm down!" Mu Ye also immediately stepped forward to dissuade Qin Jinhuan.Qin Jinhuan didn't make a sound, but just looked askance at Qin Wentao with a chilly face, without the slightest look of being persuaded by them.The sound of running footsteps outside approached.Qin Chengxi, who was afraid of seeing blood, was terrified, but she knew she couldn't say anything about her big brother and could only cry and go up to her father and beg him to leave.Qin Wentao knew that he couldn't restrain his son, and was worried that he had no place to vent his anger, when Qin Chengxi crashed into
