Chapter 607: I Heard That You Were Taught by Sheng Xiao
“I’ll go with you,” Feng Shanshan said enthusiastically. Since she had reached a new consensus with that man last night, she was very happy.
“You’re in a good mood today.”
Feng Shanshan glanced at someone in the office at the corner of her eyes and nodded. “Not bad.”
“It seems like Officer Tang pleases you very much.” Mu Qiqi laughed.
To outsiders, he was a captain and she was a small a.s.sistant. The worlds of the two seemed to overlap, but there was a gap in their ident.i.ties.
Soon, the two went to the field with their seniors. After a while, Mu Qiqi was brought into Ye Jingcheng’s office.
“Qiqi, this is his office.”
Mu Qiqi nodded and took a deep breath to calm down before knocking on the door.
“Come in.”
She pushed open the door and entered without any other policemen. She walked to Ye Jingcheng’s table alone. “May I interrupt you for a while?”
Ye Jingcheng stopped his work and smiled at her, nodding. “Of course.”
“Jingcheng, have the police investigating the case caused you inconvenience?”
“Not really,” said Ye Jingcheng.
“In that case, can you cooperate with the police more? After all, solving the case quickly will be helpful in restoring the peace in Ye Holdings.”
“Then, won’t it mean that the time I can see you will be greatly reduced?” Ye Jingcheng laughed deeply. “I have been deceived by my parents for a few years when I was abroad. They told me that you two were living very happily and I should not disturb you. So, I have endured all these years without contacting Tangxue. But now that I’m back, I can’t find her. Do you know where she is?”
He was still so strange.
“Since you have gone to the Mu family, you should know that many things happened between Mu Tangxue and I.”
“I know. You even dumped her at the slums.” Ye Jincheng continued to laugh. He looked calm. His sly and sinister face was still the same as when he was little.
“Since you know already, why are you asking me about her?” Mu Qiqi also looked at Ye Jingcheng seriously.
After all, she was not scared now.
On the contrary, Ye Jingcheng’s perception on Mu Qiqi changed drastically. The once submissive girl no longer existed.
He knew Mu Qiqi had Sheng Xiao as support. What he did not know were the changes in Mu Qiqi herself.
“You’re the one who dealt with her. Who should I ask if not you?” Ye Jingcheng c.o.c.ked his eyebrows. “Tell me Tangxue’s address and I will cooperate with the police. Isn’t this a win-win situation?”
“I don’t know where she is now. Even if I do, I won’t want to tell you. So, don’t threaten me with this. The police can still solve the case without your help. In fact, let us warn you. The stock price of Ye Holdings is not affected yet since the matter has not spread yet. But, it doesn’t mean that it will not happen later!”
“Qiqi, you have changed so much.” Ye Jingcheng looked at Mu Qiqi in surprise.
“I thought you’d be scared when you saw me yesterday.”
“Scared?” Mu Qiqi chuckled. “Of you?”
“Shouldn’t you be?”
Mu Qiqi shook her head and smiled. “I admit that I did feel a little scared in the beginning. But now, I know that it is just trauma from my childhood. I don’t have to be scared of you now. Why should I be?”
“I heard that you were taught by Sheng Xiao. In that case, show me your ability, and show me what a student taught by the famous man in Jianchuan looks like.”
“You don’t deserve to mention his name.” Mu Qiqi got up from the chair.
After the two had a not-very-happy conversation, Mu Qiqi left the office and walked to the entrance of Ye Holdings.
“How was it?” The seniors approached her.
Mu Qiqi shook her head. “Don’t count on him. He threatened me.”
Tang Yan’s face sank after hearing Mu Qiqi’s answer. He told the team, “Just follow the procedure. We’ll summon him when we have to.”
Tang Yan and Sheng Xiao were of the same kind. They were very protective of their people.
Since Mu Qiqi was a member of the police station, he would protect her as well. Was he asking for his death when he threatened the people from the forensics laboratory?
As a matter of fact, he had another reason to protect Mu Qiqi. Feng Shanshan had only this one friend. If she was bullied, Sheng Xiao would not be the only one annoyed. Feng Shanshan would also feel miserable.
“What did he use to threaten you?”
“Mu Tangxue’s whereabouts.” Mu Qiqi answered Feng Shanshan.
“He seems to like Mu Tangxue very much. I don’t think you should come to this horrible place anymore. With you here working on the case, I don’t know what kind of trap the young master of the Ye family will set for you.” Feng Shanshan shrugged.
Tang Yan glanced at Feng Shanshan and said to Mu Qiqi, “She’s right. If Ye Jingcheng picks on you, he picks on the police as well. It does not help us in solving the case.”
“You’re wrong. If I don’t come, he won’t give you any hint.”
“I thought he was your childhood sweetheart and that Chief Sheng’s finally met with an opponent. Unexpectedly, he doesn’t even like you.”
Mu Qiqi glanced at Feng Shanshan and said, “You don’t know.”
Did Ye Jingcheng want to know where Mu Tangxue was? She never regretted sending Mu Tangxue there. No way. After all, she had done many vicious things.
“Well, the victim’s parents have just arrived in Jianchuan. They should be waiting at the police station now. Mu Qiqi, you go back and find out more from them. It’s part of the investigation as well.” Tang Yan made arrangements for her.
“Okay.” Mu Qiqi did not refuse.
But when Mu Qiqi turned around and headed to the police car, Feng Shanshan shouted, “Be careful!”
Right then, a flowerpot came smas.h.i.+ng down onto the ground beside Mu Qiqi.
Everyone looked up the big building of Ye Holdings but saw nothing. It was a very tall building. Who knew from which floor the flowerpot was dropped?
But everyone knew that the flowerpot was targeted at Mu Qiqi.
“If Chief Sheng knows about this, I bet Ye Jingcheng’s head will be smashed into pieces.” Feng Shanshan snorted. “Let me go with you.”
However, before leaving, she gave Tang Yan a deep look.
Her intention and message was very obvious.
‘Don’t you dare work for a long time. Try me if you don’t rest.’
Although Tang Yan did not say anything, he understood Feng Shanshan’s threat. The two agreed last night that she would take care of him and he would take care of her.
Although he did not say it, he had agreed in his heart.
After all, why would he not like having someone caring for him?
