Chapter 211: Miss Su?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Mu Chenyan did not dare to arrive in any of those luxurious cars from the Yuan Family. She had taken the bus and the subway early in the morning.
Mu Chenyan had on her a pair of newly bought white shoes and jeans, revealing the outline of her long legs. Coupled with the slim fit black low-collar sweater she was wearing, her outfit was modest.
In the morning when Yuan Xuan woke up, she was writhing her slender waist left and right. As Yuan Xuan watched her changed into a light and casual attire, he was stunned.
The usual elegant dresses on her had indeed overshadowed the natural beauty of this woman. Having worn an extremely ordinary piece of clothing, this woman looked even more gorgeous now.
While Yuan Xuan felt amazed, she was like a fairy who had descended onto earth in Zhang Xin’s eyes. He strongly believed that luck was on his side, and it was unstoppable!
In this trip to the major crimes department, they had to bring over some files and items. Mu Chenyan and Zhang Xin used the department’s official car and moved all their personal belongings to the police station.
Zhang Xin appeared to be very solicitous. He would do everything that required effort, and there basically was nothing for Mu Chenyan to do.
Seeing that Zhang Xin was exhausted and sweating all over, and he even wanted to be the driver, she felt a little apologetic. She went and bought two bottles of water; one for herself, while the other was given to Zhang Xin. Zhang Xin was overwhelmed by the favor and was happy and giddy during the entire journey.
Zhang Xin and Mu Chenyan enquired of the location to report for duty and found out that the recently cleared up cubicles upstairs were to be their temporary office.
When there was a case, they could tag along and report; when there were no cases, they could write articles in this office or head back to the news office legal channel.
Zhang Xin looked at the small-s.p.a.ced office and grumbled, “Could this have been the storeroom before this? Every year the major crimes department receives much favor from the taxpayers, how could they be this stingy? Look at the wallpaper. They’re all coming off…”
While speaking, Zhang Xin took a cloth to wipe the table. There was still a disdainful expression at the corner of his lips.
Mu Chenyan was rather satisfied with the office environment, however. “This is quite good. It’s quiet here, and writing articles needs such an environment.”
Hearing that, Zhang Xin turned his thoughts around. Since it was just the two them here, and they could have face-to-face contact every day, this was surely a good place to promote their friendly relations.h.i.+p. His mood improved vastly, and he even hummed a little song while wiping the tables.
Mu Chenyan went out of the office and asked around for the location of the team leader’s office. She wanted to exchange some pleasantries with Wu Huai.
The moment she reached the entrance to the administrative department, she saw the unexpected figure of a woman!
Today, she had changed into a refres.h.i.+ng black sports attire and was wearing a pair of black and white sports shoes. Her fine short hair was fluffy and cool-looking, and she seemed to be waiting for someone.
“Miss Su?” Mu Chenyan blurted out, and the woman at the door turned around. Her pretty face was somewhat striking. This woman was Su Qingcheng!
Su Qingcheng was a little surprised, her eyes dazzling. She asked in a low voice, “Miss, do you know me?”
She was certain that she did not know Mu Chenyan, but upon seeing such a beauty, even the cold-shouldered Su Qingcheng would lower her guard.
“I’d witnessed Miss Su’s act of bravery at the lantern show a few days back.” Mu Chenyan explained truthfully.
Upon the mentioning of the lantern show, Su Qingcheng’s expression immediately changed. She coldly sized up Mu Chenyan. “You are…”
“I’m a friend of Shao Yibai’s.” Mu Chenyan knew that only Shao Yibai had called out her name at that time, hence it was impossible to say that she did not know Shao Yibai.
Su Qingcheng became alert, and her body froze. A sense of precaution flashed through her pretty eyes. She kept mum as she watched Mu Chenyan. Mu Chenyan smiled faintly, “Don’t worry, Miss Su. I won’t tell Shao Yibai that I saw you here.”
