Order was quickly restored in the restaurant. Lan Youyin organized the waiters to clean up the mess on the ground. While they were busy, a few gossipy waitresses gathered together to discuss Chu Wuzheng, and then pulled Shen Shiyu over to ask. For half a day.
Shen Shiyu didn't want to answer their messy questions. After pushing and pushing, he couldn't push them away, so he had to find an excuse and hide out.
She took two bottles of water and got into Chu Wuzheng's car.
"What's wrong with your hand?" She glanced at his wrist wrapped in gauze.
"Oh, I scratched it accidentally." Chu Wuzheng said.
Shen Shiyu didn't ask any questions and handed him a bottle of water.
"Thank you."
"Just use this to thank me?" Chu Wuzheng shook the bottle in his hand.
"Then what do you want?" Shen Shiyu asked.
"I want you to treat me to a meal." After saying that, Chu Wuzheng smiled.
Shen Shiyu knew he did it on purpose, but she pretended not to understand. "You can stay and eat, it's free."
Chu Wuzheng stopped teasing her, turned on the water, took a sip, and let out a deep breath. "Why didn't you tell me?"
"Why should I tell you?" Shen Shiyu asked.
"You happen to be on the phone with me. Even so, you are not willing to ask me to help?" Chu Wuzheng frowned solemnly.
"This is my family matter and I don't want the police to get involved," Shen Shiyu said.
Chu Wuzheng's eyes flashed cold for a moment. He tightened his grip on the bottle in his hand and his tone became a little deeper. "To you, am I just a policeman?"
"Otherwise, who are you?" Shen Shiyu said, meeting his gaze.
He pursed his lips, and the bottle in his hand creaked as he squeezed it.
The two stared at each other for nearly half a minute, and finally Chu Wuqian closed his eyes first.
He slowly leaned his head on the seat and exhaled a cold breath. The smile on the corner of his mouth seemed to be laughing at her and himself.
"I'm going back. Thank you for today."
After Shen Shiyu finished speaking, he turned around, but before he raised his hand, he heard the sound of the car door being locked.
"What do you want to do?" She rolled her eyes and asked.
"Don't you want to thank me? Why are you leaving in such a hurry?" Chu Wuzheng turned slightly.
"I said, you can go to the store to eat, it's all free."
"I don't want to eat food from your restaurant."
His face was expressionless, but the brewing storm could be seen in it, and Shen Shiyu knew that his energy was rising again.
Shen Shiyu really feels that he should not be called Chu Wuzheng, but Chu Daoge, because he has a completely crazy face!
"Okay, I'll treat you to dinner, and you can drive and go wherever you want."
Her tone was brisk and she followed his wishes, but both of them knew that she was deliberately competing.
Chu Wuzheng looked at her indifferent expression as she looked straight ahead. The fire in his heart was tumbling back and forth, burning more and more intensely. How could he still think about eating?
He leaned sideways and remained motionless, his cold gaze resting on her face.
"What? You're not going?" Shen Shiyu put his hand on the car door. "If you're not going, please open the car door. I want to get off."
"No." Chu Wuzheng said.
Shen Shiyu was so angry that she hit it anywhere. The place was so hard that it made her bones hurt. "Open the door for me!"
"I can't fucking stop talking!"
Shen Shiyu was forced to panic.
She stretched out her hand to press the window, hunched up in the car and leaned out, and then raised her legs. As a result, her center of gravity was unstable and she almost fell.
"Are you crazy?"
With quick hands and eyes, Chu Wu Zheng grabbed her clothes at the back and pulled her back.
The back of her head hit his shoulder, Chu Wuzheng's hand stopped her waist, and the other hand quickly closed the car window.
"Are you okay?" Chu Wuzheng lowered his head and asked her.
Feeling the hot air blowing against her ears, Shen Shiyu's whole body became awkward. She wanted to pull away, but the hand on her waist did not loosen.
"Let me go!" she shouted hoarsely.
"I'm asking you, are you okay?" Chu Wuzheng roared in a low voice.
Shen Shiyu reached out to push him, but the space in the car was only so big. How far could he push him?
While pushing, Chu Wuzheng noticed that her knuckles were a little red. Thinking of the muffled sound just now, he guessed it was quite painful.
He frowned and reached out to hold her little fist in his hand.
Feeling the warmth of his palm, Shen Shiyu couldn't bear it anymore and cursed loudly. "You should really let your wife see you like this!"
"who?"
Chu Wuzheng didn't understand what she said.
Shen Shiyu was stunned, and the car was quiet for a moment.
His rhetorical question made her nerves twitch. Impulsively, she repeated, "Your wife."
Chu Wuzheng frowned more and more. "My wife?"
"Are you married?" Shen Shiyu asked.
“…Who the hell am I marrying?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Wuzheng's cell phone rang.
I took it out and saw that it was a big face. He was on duty today.
Normally, the bureau wouldn't call him at this time, so Chu Wuzheng already had a bad feeling when he answered the call.
"Team Chu, we found another one."
Sure enough, Chu Wuzheng felt pain in his temples. "Is it the same as the previous scene?"
"It's roughly the same, but there are some details that don't match up, and it's a bit suspected of imitating the crime, so you'd better come and take a look."
"Okay, I'll be there soon."
"Are you okay?" Shen Shiyu asked after watching him hang up the phone.
"Um."
"oh."
Chu Wuzheng lowered his head and looked at the information in his hand. His mind was now full of cases, and he didn't know how to tell her about the consultant. He was grinding his teeth in worry.
"Get off the car first."
He unlocked the car and said without raising his head.
For a few seconds, the only sound that could be heard in the car was the sound of Chu Wuzheng flipping the information bag.
But soon, the car door was opened and Shen Shiyu got out of the car.
Today is another freezing day.
The weather forecast said that a cold wave was coming, and the temperature dropped sharply. At night, she couldn't help but sneeze even when she was in bed. She was really freezing, so she turned on the electric mattress.
But before she could warm up, she was woken from bed by a knock on the door.
She knew it was him.
The man walked in and took off his cold coat, leaving only a thin shirt on him.
"Brother, it's hot inside the quilt. Lie in it and warm it up."
The man came over and took her hand.
It was so cold, she felt the coldness from these hands spreading from her skin into her bones and blood, but she still smiled at the man.
"Are you sleepy?" the man asked.
"Kind of."
She was indeed sleepy, after all, she was too busy during this period.
The man picked her up and put her on the bed, and then she lay down, face to face.
She rested her head on the man's arm, looked at the fair face in front of her, and felt a hand rubbing her hair behind her back.
"Do you like him?" Just when she was about to close her eyes, the man asked.
"who?"
The man's eyes were as calm as water. "You know."
At this time, the electric mattress on the bed was as warm as a heated kang. It was so hot that she couldn't sleep, but she still felt a chill in her chest that couldn't be warmed away.
"No." She replied with trembling lips.
“That’s a lie.”
This sound in the middle of the night was like the whisper of a devil.
Men can always tell when she lies, and they don't allow her to lie.
She has no choice.
"Yes." she said.
The man's hand was not warmed by the warmth around him, and was still cold. When it was pressed against her body, it was like an anaconda that had just gone through hibernation, slowly but non-stop scratching her with the scales on its abdomen.
"Okay." The man leaned against her ear, kissed her gently, and said this word.
