After dinner, Luo Fei tidied up the dishes and sat on the sofa chatting with Wu Yan for a while before heading back to the bedroom.
He wanted to read, but his mind couldn’t settle. Ultimately, he was still too inexperienced. After taking a shower, he managed to calm down quite a bit.
On the other side, after finishing dinner with her family, Yang Mei hurried back to her bedroom and was currently on a video call with Wu Xiaoyue.
"Yang Mei, did that guy Luo Fei message you?" As soon as the call connected, Wu Xiaoyue hurriedly asked.
"No." Yang Mei’s mood was somewhat downcast.
"That guy, is he playing hard to get? Or is he really patient? From my experience, at this point, shouldn’t guys be eagerly sending messages and desperately trying to showcase their perceived wit and humor?"
"Luo Fei isn’t that kind of person." Yang Mei replied.
"Then what is Luo Fei thinking?"
"No idea, maybe he doesn’t have that kind of interest in me?" Yang Mei said, pretending to be carefree.
"Impossible, today I helped probe him, and he clearly expressed that he wants to pursue you." Wu Xiaoyue quickly said.
"Must be bogus, you’re surely talking nonsense. How could Luo Fei say something like that? He definitely couldn’t say that, you’re tricking me, aren’t you?" Yang Mei asked with some excitement and suspicion.
Wu Xiaoyue quickly responded, "It’s true. When you went to get the car, I asked that guy Luo Fei if he wanted to pursue you. I said if he really wanted to, I’d help him, and he said yes, he wants to pursue you. If I’m lying, may I be struck by lightning five times this life and never find a boyfriend. Now you should believe me."
"What! Wu Xiaoyue, how can you be so straightforward! Luo Fei might even think it was my idea, really, you’ve put me in a tough spot." Yang Mei’s face instantly turned red, feeling awkward yet quite happy inside.
"Oh, Sister Yang Mei, let me tell you, with matters of the heart, you need to seize them timely. Opportunities often come only once. I can see that Luo Fei is like you, someone who doesn’t like to take the initiative. If I don’t add some fuel to the fire, I wonder when you two would reveal each other’s feelings. It’s tiring, and problems can easily arise. Now that I’ve helped reveal it, Luo Fei has feelings for you, and you for him, so you don’t have to overthink if he likes you or not. Now you can just relax and focus on being in a relationship with Luo Fei." Wu Xiaoyue said earnestly.
"What relationship? He hasn’t even started pursuing me yet!" Yang Mei retorted.
"Fine then, wait for that blockhead of yours to pursue you, hahaha, I’m just curious, given Luo Fei’s character, how will he pursue my Sister Yang Mei!" Wu Xiaoyue said, unable to hold back her laughter.
Yang Mei was about to respond when she suddenly saw Luo Fei’s message come through.
"He messaged me." Yang Mei said, feeling very happy.
"What did he reply? You look so happy." Wu Xiaoyue hurriedly asked.
"I’ll tell you later, call you in a bit." Yang Mei said and hung up the video call directly.
Wu Xiaoyue was stunned for three seconds seeing Yang Mei hang up the call, then muttered, "Ditching friends for romance, the ancients truly knew what they were saying."
Yang Mei hung up Wu Xiaoyue’s call, then got off the bed to sit in a chair, wearing a happy expression as she seriously replied to Luo Fei’s message.
As for Luo Fei, after showering, he read for a while, thought of Yang Mei, and his emotions stirred again, so after hesitating for a second, he took the initiative to message Yang Mei.
Unexpectedly, Yang Mei replied swiftly, making Luo Fei realize she probably had feelings for him too, which made him quite happy.
After that, the two supposedly mature and steady detectives started chatting like ordinary young people, from elementary school to college, hobbies to life ambitions, chatting from domestic to overseas.
Around three in the morning, the two finally wrapped up their conversation. Neither felt sleepy, but knowing they had to work tomorrow, they couldn’t continue chatting.
For two people who hadn’t seriously dated before, this hazy sense of romance was something both of them liked.
"Is this what falling in love feels like?" Yang Mei looked at Luo Fei’s goodnight message, a sweet smile remained on her face, talking with Luo Fei made her feel warm and happy.
On another side, Luo Fei finished chatting with Yang Mei, just switched off the light and was ready to sleep.
"Doo doo doo"
The phone rang.
Luo Fei grabbed his phone, seeing it was Zhao Donglai calling, Luo Fei frowned, Zhao Donglai calling at this hour surely meant something was wrong.
Sure enough
Zhao Donglai informed Luo Fei that a massacre had occurred in Peach blossom Village, just that evening, Jin Dayuan’s family of four was murdered at home. The neighbor, Zhao Wanqing’s family heard some noise, went to check, saw the crime scene, and called the police.
Upon hearing it was a massacre, Luo Fei quickly dressed up and phoned Sun Jun and Wang Yong, instructing them to swiftly gather at the police station entrance.
Luo Fei left a note on the living room coffee table for Wu Yan and the others, then rushed out the door, heading quickly towards the police station.
By the time he arrived, Zhao Donglai was already there waiting; the others hadn’t shown up yet.
At that moment, Zhao Donglai looked very serious, a massacre, this was Zhao Donglai’s first encounter since becoming a detective in Ningjiang County.
