The Third Watch!
“Chenfeng, it was all Auntie’s fault before, I was blind to recognize Mount Tai.
I’m apologizing now, if it weren’t for you, we would never have been able to live in such a big house!” Wu Li actually apologized.
Shen Yuqin expressed some dissatisfaction, “I remember someone once said that Brother Ye could struggle his entire life and still couldn’t afford even a toilet?”
Wu Li, with a face full of embarrassment, awkwardly smiled and explained, “I was blind, I spoke too harshly before, Chenfeng, please don’t take it to heart!
Auntie will cook food for you today!”
“Mom, really, what you said before was uncalled for.
My brother Chenfeng is clearly a capable person, and you still mocked him.
It’s only because of brother Chenfeng’s generosity that he didn’t take your words to heart!” Wang Lulu also stepped out to blame Wu Li, repeatedly calling Chenfeng ‘brother’ in the sweetest manner.
Wu Li’s face turned red, feeling quite embarrassed, yet she silently thought: Lulu, you have the nerve to criticize me, you were quite fierce when mocking Ye Chenfeng before, how come you’re pushing everything on me now?
Ye Chenfeng didn’t bother dealing with Wu Li and her daughter, turning to Shen Tianfang instead, “Uncle Shen, from now on you can live here peacefully.
Someone will come soon to deliver the deed.
Just go through the formalities.”
“Ah?
Really?” Wu Li and Wang Lulu’s mouths were wide open, unable to hide their shock.
They had originally thought that the house was just for them to live in, never expecting that the deed would be handed over as well.
Ye Chenfeng nodded, “Right, the deed will be under Uncle Shen’s name!”
“Gah!”
Wu Li and Wang Lulu’s expressions immediately darkened.
“Another thing, Uncle Shen, pay attention.
If anyone asks about it, just explain everything about last night’s fire.
Don’t hide anything!” Ye Chenfeng instructed.
Shen Tianfang and the others were momentarily taken aback, but then nodded, “No problem!”
“Yuqin, let’s go, let’s check out your room!”
Ye Chenfeng led Shen Yuqin, about to leave, but just as they reached the door, he encountered someone familiar: Chen Xijun.
“Captain Chen, hello!” A sharpness flitted through Ye Chenfeng’s eyes, but it was quickly concealed.
He had anticipated Chen Xijun’s arrival, but hadn’t expected it to be so soon.
“Ye Chenfeng, please step aside, I am here to see the Shen family,” Chen Xijun said straightforwardly.
Shen Yuqin looked puzzled, “What’s the matter, Captain Chen?”
“Nothing serious, I just want to understand the situation,” Chen Xijun replied.
“Please, go ahead!”
Ye Chenfeng automatically stepped aside.
“Ye Chenfeng, stay a moment after this!
I have something to discuss with you,” Chen Xijun’s gaze was complex as he glanced at Ye Chenfeng.
“Alright!
Yuqin, go check the room by yourself, I can’t accompany you!”
“It’s okay, Brother Ye!”
…
Soon, Chen Xijun left the Shen Family’s house, but the information he gathered was limited.
Shen Tianfang and the others had no idea how the fire started, and they didn’t even know about the murder of Hao Long’s family.
“Shall we go?” Chen Xijun’s gaze flickered as he looked at Ye Chenfeng.
“Where to?” Ye Chenfeng couldn’t help but ask.
“The police station!” Chen Xijun’s gaze chilled.
Ye Chenfeng smiled, “I heard the tea from that place is quite good, I’ll give it a try!”
Just like that, Ye Chenfeng and Chen Xijun arrived at the police station.
But this time, it wasn’t for an interrogation, but Chen Xijun’s office instead.
True to her style, the office decor was minimalist with not much stuff around.
The only highlight was the office emitted the same fragrance as Chen Xijun, and Ye Chenfeng couldn’t help but take a few extra sniffs.
“What would you like?” Chen Xijun asked.
“Tea, I came here for tea, didn’t I?” Ye Chenfeng retorted.
Chen Xijun was silent, “…”
“Captain Chen, did you call me here for something important?
Surely it’s not to discuss romance, right?” Ye Chenfeng asked.
Chen Xijun’s mouth twitched fiercely, “Ye Chenfeng, I hope you can be serious.
You know very well what happened last night.
I won’t ask where you were but look, you lost something, and I just happened to pick it up!”
Chen Xijun put on rubber gloves and carefully took out a black card from her bag, with a lifelike Divine Dragon on it and a simple “kill” character that contained a scalp-tingling aura.
This was what Chen Xijun found at the fire-destroyed scene of the Hao Family apartment.
It was unclear what material it was made of.
The fire had burned the apartment completely, but this card was undamaged.
“Is this a card from Three Kingdoms?
I’ve played it, it’s quite fun.” Ye Chenfeng’s eyes lit up.
Chen Xijun observed Ye Chenfeng intently, but unfortunately, Ye Chenfeng was an elusive tough guy, and Chen Xijun’s skills were no match for him.
Chen Xijun shook her head, “I don’t know yet, but I believe I will find out someday!”
Ye Chenfeng sipped the fragrant tea and strangely smiled, “I’d advise you it’s better to never find out!”
Chen Xijun’s expression changed, and she looked at Ye Chenfeng incredulously.
Ye Chenfeng held the cup, brought it close to his nose, and smelling the tea’s fragrance, he casually said, “Captain Chen, you’re not getting any younger, right?
It’s time to start thinking about romance.
If you really can’t find a man, you can ask me, I provide help 24 hours a day!
Stop being so obsessed all day!”
“Ye Chenfeng, you…” Chen Xijun was so frustrated she was at a loss for words.
“The tea at the police station is indeed very good, I’ll come again next time.
Before I leave, I suggest you throw that thing away.
It’s no good for anyone!” Ye Chenfeng’s lips curved into a mischievous smile.
“You…”
Chen Xijun could only watch Ye Chenfeng’s retreating figure, but her heart was filled with even more doubts.
She was sure that the item belonged to Ye Chenfeng.
Through a series of analyses, she knew that the fire at the Shen Family’s place last night was set by people sent by Hao Jian, and the house next to the Shen Family’s was where Ye Chenfeng had lived before.
But soon after, the Hao Family’s building was also burned down, and people like Hao Long and Hao Jian didn’t make it out alive.
All fingers were pointing at Ye Chenfeng, but there was still no conclusive evidence.
Chen Xijun placed her hopes on this “kill” card, attempting to find out what it was, but to her disappointment, her efforts through various channels turned up nothing.
“That’s the only way!” Chen Xijun murmured to herself, then silently dialed a phone number.
Her body almost trembled, obviously requiring a lot of courage to make the call.
“Dial tone… Hello!” Soon, an elderly voice came through.
“Hello… Grandpa!” Chen Xijun sweetly called out, and had Ye Chenfeng heard this, he would have definitely been shocked, as it was unheard of for Chen Xijun to speak in such a coquettish voice.
“Is that you, Junjun?
It’s really great.
After two years, I finally hear your voice again!” The voice on the other end of the phone sounded particularly excited.
