Chapter 770: Got Impatient From Not Hugging You For One Night
Tang Yan found a reliable informant and made a special trip to get close to Zhou Qin and Su Hong. There would be news soon.
Bai Xinyi couldn’t die in vain. Her crazy mother was extremely cunning. There must be a lot of things that the police couldn’t get out of her.
However, after being a police officer for so many years, the best thing he learned was to be patient and wait for the big fish to take the bait.
..
The first thing Mu Qiqi did when she returned home was settle the score with a certain someone.
Was she kidding? She was heartbroken all night yesterday.
However, when she entered the house, Mu Qiqi found Sheng Xiao taking a shower in the bathroom without closing the door. Mu Qiqi immediately had the urge to peep.
In the bathroom, Sheng Xiao lay in the bathtub taking a nap. Just the exposed chest muscles alone were enough to make Mu Qiqi’s nose bleed.
After so many years, he was still so devilish.
“If you want to see it, then do it openly,” Sheng Xiao said to Mu Qiqi behind the door with his eyes closed.
It had been so long. How could he not know that there was a burning gaze aimed at him?
“You were so angry yesterday. Why didn’t you let me transfer to another faculty?” Mu Qiqi leaned against the door frame and asked him, “It wasn’t easy for me to make up my mind.”
“That’s not called making up your mind.” Sheng Xiao snorted as he lay in the water. “If you really had made up your mind, you wouldn’t have gone to Feng Shanshan to complain.”
“She told you that?”
Mu Qiqi thought about it and felt that it was impossible. Feng Shanshan was not a tattletale.
This man must have heard it himself. No wonder he did not even go out to look for her.
“I don’t like you taking risks and I can’t tolerate you being in danger, but I’m not so dictatorial as to deprive you of your ideals. In the future, I’ll still be angry where I should be angry, but you don’t have to change your major just because of that.”
When Mu Qiqi heard this, she walked to the side of the bathtub and squatted by it.
“I want to change my major not only because of you, but also because of other things…”
There are so many unsolvable cases in the world. If you face them with such a mentality, it would be a waste of Tang Yan and the others’ efforts…” Sheng Xiao suddenly stood up and splashed Mu Qiqi with water.
“Last night, I dreamed of Bai Xinyi. She stood in front of me covered in blood and begged me to avenge her.”
Hearing Mu Qiqi’s words, Sheng Xiao put on a towel and pinched her cheek. “Don’t think too highly of yourself. You only have importance when you’re with me.”
“Even if Bai Xinyi appears in a dream, she’s looking for Tang Yan. Why would she look for you?”
Mu Qiqi nodded and agreed with Sheng Xiao. The unhappiness in her heart was also relieved.
Then, she followed Sheng Xiao out of the bathroom. Sheng Xiao sat on the edge of the bed, and she proceeded to sit on his legs.
Sheng Xiao looked at her and she put her arms around his shoulders.
“What? You can’t sit properly?”
“I haven’t hugged you all night, and you’re already so impatient? If you have anything to say in the future, just tell me directly. Don’t look for outsiders, okay?”
“Okay.” Mu Qiqi nodded.
Sheng Xiao gave Mu Qiqi a good beating. Then, she stayed at home, reading books and watching TV.
Because she didn’t need to investigate cases now, nor did she need to work overtime.
However, just as she was getting bored and watching the news, she saw that Sheng Bowen was trending.
The news reported that Sheng Bowen’s car had hit a little girl who had fallen to the ground when the car was pa.s.sing by a junction, and it immediately drove away. The little girl, with the help of pa.s.sers-by, was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment. The little girl’s mother had already called the police.
“According to the surveillance footage, the car that ran over and injured the little girl was a Blue Lamborghini. It belongs to Sheng Bowen, the current head of the well-known company, Huang Yao.”
“Huang Yao has yet to respond to this. The police are conducting further investigation of the case.”
After Mu Qiqi finished reading, she immediately looked at Sheng Xiao who was flipping through the information. “Did you already know? Is it Third Brother?”
“It’s his car, but I don’t know who was driving it,” Sheng Xiao answered.
“We’ve got to call him.” Mu Qiqi took out her phone. She wanted to call Sheng Bowen, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that it was inappropriate, so she called Ren Yufei.
On the other end of the line, Ren Yufei was sobbing.
“Third sister-in-law, what’s going on? I just saw the news…”
“At that time, your third brother and I were on our way home. Because there was another car on the right side, we didn’t notice that there was someone under the car because of the blind spot. We thought that it was just a rock.
“We only found out afterward that a child was involved. Your third brother had already gone to the hospital. It wasn’t like what the media reported. We are all very concerned and worried about the child’s safety.”
“Since that’s the case, let the police investigate carefully.” Mu Qiqi comforted Ren Yufei. “I also hope that the child’s life is not in danger. But why did the child fall to the ground at such a moment? Where was the child’s guardian?”
“The police are currently checking the surveillance footage.”
“Don’t panic. The child will definitely be fine.”
“I hope so. Your third brother won’t let me go to the hospital at all.”
Of course, if they went, they would inevitably be scolded by the child’s guardian, or be treated even more harshly.
How could Sheng Bowen bear to let her experience that.
“When there’s new news or you need help, you must remember to call us. “Mu Qiqi instructed Ren Yufei. Those two people were both kind-hearted little sheep who never knew when they had been devoured by the ferocious beasts.
“Okay.” Because she still had things to deal with, Ren Yufei hung up the phone.
After Mu Qiqi ended the call, she couldn’t help but sigh. The biggest hope in her heart was that the child was fine.
Sheng Bowen was probably going to suffer a little.
..
In the hospital, Sheng Bowen had already brought professional lawyers and insurance company specialists to the child’s parents.
When the child’s mother saw Sheng Bowen, she broke down and shouted, “If anything happens to my daughter because of you, I will definitely bury you with her.”
“You are that hit-and-run driver. I will sue you until you lose everything,” the girl’s father pointed at Sheng Bowen and said angrily. “You don’t even let the child go. You have no heart.”
Sheng Bowen listened to the two people’s scolding silently, then, he solemnly bowed and apologized. “I really didn’t mean to hit the child. I really hope that the child will be safe. For this, I’m willing to pay any price. I’m not a hit-and-run driver. I really didn’t know that I actually hit a child.”
“Don’t be so hypocritical. You ran away after hitting someone. If you’re not running away, then what are you?”
“I think, if you weren’t the CEO of some big company, you would have run away long ago.”
The child’s parents were obviously very unhappy with Sheng Bowen.
“There’s no need to put on an act in front of us. You’d better go to the police and tell them what you did.”
