Walking to the living room, Chu Wuzheng stretched and touched his pocket. Then he turned around and saw Lan Youyin holding the lighter he had casually placed on the table, playing with it curiously.
"That's cool." Lan Youyin saw Chu Wuzheng coming over and smiled twice before handing it back to him.
After Shen Shiyu washed his face, he quickly walked out of the bathroom, hugged Chu Wuzheng from behind, and asked him what he had for breakfast.
"Just eat here, didn't your roommate say he wants to cook?" Chu Wuzheng glanced at Lan Youyin.
Shen Shiyu put his chin on Chu Wuzheng's shoulder and showed his teeth to Lan Youyin.
"I don't want you to eat his food," she said.
Chu Wuzheng didn't understand what was wrong with her for a moment and raised his eyebrows. "What's wrong with you?"
After watching the loving teaching for a long time, Lan Youyin remembered the pot of water boiling in the kitchen, so he hurried in and started to open the instant noodles.
Chu Wuzheng turned on his mobile phone and looked at the news. The popularity of Feng Mian's murder case has not diminished, and eight of the ten hot searches on the web are related to it.
While he was scrolling the page, he received a call from Xiang Hang, saying that Li Qi had been taken to the police station based on what he said.
"Captain Chu, he keeps saying that he has a class in the morning and asks us to release him. We have no evidence to prove that he is related to the case. Is it okay to just hold him captive like this?"
Chu Wuzheng breathed a sigh of relief. "Wait until I go back."
After seeing Chu Wuzheng answer the phone, Shen Shiyu, who was standing next to him, stretched out his little paw and pinched him secretly.
Chu Wuzheng glanced at her.
Shen Shiyu smiled and stretched out his hand to touch the muscles on his waist and abdomen more aggressively.
This time Chu Wuzheng didn't let her go and grabbed her hand and pulled her back. Shen Shiyu gave in instantly. "It hurts, it hurts, let go."
"Let you be naughty."
Shen Shiyu bit him unconvinced, and Chu Wuzheng hugged her.
"Go to my place next time." Chu Wuzheng said.
Shen Shiyu lowered his eyes and did not answer.
When the kitchen door opened again, Shen Shiyu was pulling Chu Wuzheng to go out. Lan Youyin held two bowls of noodles in his hands and smiled warmly at them.
"Let's eat some together, the instant noodles I cook are delicious." Lan Youyin said.
"..." Shen Shiyu couldn't help but stepped forward and punched him. "Why didn't you say that the boiled water you boiled was delicious?"
Lan Youyin put down the bowl and touched his arm. "Be gentle."
"You have such tender skin and tender flesh." Shen Shiyu felt sorry for him and helped to rub it.
Normally, if Chu Wuzheng saw this scene, even if he didn't get angry, he would definitely rush forward and separate the two of them.
But this time there was no movement for a long time.
When Shen Shiyu turned back to look at him, she felt that his expression was a little strange.
"What’s wrong with you?"
At first she thought he was unhappy, but as she looked at it, Shen Shiyu could see that his expression was getting worse and worse, as if he was suppressing some physical discomfort.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Lan Youyin also noticed it and asked.
Chu Wuzheng raised his hands to cover his face, then opened his mouth with difficulty, his eyes finding the two bowls of noodles placed on the table.
"this……"
He frowned so hard that he couldn't speak clearly. Halfway through his words, he ran to the balcony and hurriedly opened the window.
When Shen Shiyu ran over, she saw Chu Wuzheng with his head hanging out, breathing the air outside. She stroked his back a few times and looked at him uneasily.
Chu Wuzheng waited for a long time before he could speak normally.
"I...I can't stand this smell."
Shen Shiyu turned around and looked into the room, then realized what smell he was talking about.
The smell of instant noodles.
The last time they had a fight six years ago, she dropped the bowl, scattering the noodles on the floor and filling the room with the smell of soup.
She remembered that they had been arguing for a long time with this smell.
Shen Shiyu hugged him from behind.
"Are you feeling better?" she asked softly.
Chu Wuzheng said "hmm".
He couldn't smell the smell, and when he smelled it, his scalp became numb and he had difficulty breathing. This was something he discovered a few years ago.
There are a lot of instant noodles stored in the corner of the bureau. Usually when they are busy at work or too lazy to go to the cafeteria, the police officers will make a bowl and eat it conveniently. There are various flavors, so it is not surprising that he smelled this smell in the office.
The first time he smelled it, he almost couldn't walk.
This was probably Chu Wuzheng's most humiliating experience. He was tall and strong, capable of beating and scolding, but his legs became weak because of a bucket of instant noodles. Naturally, he couldn't tell others this.
Later, he learned to be smart and could not afford to be provoked and could hide. When he saw someone taking it out, he would immediately avoid it, but he would inevitably feel uncomfortable for a while afterwards.
This is the fastest he's ever gotten better.
Touching the hand on his waist, she was here.
Chu Wuzheng couldn't tell for a moment whether his reaction was because of the smell or the memory of the figure who was acting wild with him. He couldn't see or touch it.
The two walked back to the living room, and Lan Youyin had already brought two bowls of noodles back to the kitchen.
"Sorry, I just hate this smell." Chu Wuzheng rarely became serious.
Lan Youyin didn't pay too much attention, smiled magnanimously, and even joked that he wouldn't let them have breakfast, just to let them go out to spend their time together.
Chu Wuzheng drove to a random breakfast restaurant, and Shen Shiyu ordered something.
While waiting for the meal, Chu Wuzheng went out to smoke. Shen Shiyu heard the cell phone ringing on the table and saw a series of unfamiliar numbers, so she picked it up for him.
There was a thick male voice on the opposite side. "Zhengzi."
Apart from Sun Ting, Shen Shiyu had never heard anyone call him that.
"Hello." Shen Shiyu said politely. "Wuzheng is not here right now. Who are you?"
"Who are you?" the other party asked.
"I……"
When Shen Shiyu didn't know how to answer, Chu Wuzheng walked back to the store, and Shen Shiyu handed him the phone.
Chu Wuzheng took it and saw that it was Chu Shiyuan's phone number.
"Hey, Dad."
Shen Shiyu was startled.
She had never met Chu Shiyuan, and Chu Wuzheng rarely mentioned it to her.
In fact, this is normal. After all, Chu Shiyuan and Sun Ting have been divorced for many years, and their father and son have different ideas. They always quarrel over their job as police officers. So let alone Shen Shiyu, even Chu Wuzheng spends the whole year with his father. I can't see him more than a few times.
Chu Wuzheng was talking on the phone with one hand and pulled out a stool with the other to sit down.
"It's New Year's Day soon, why do you have a day off?"
"busy these days."
"You're so busy!" Chu Shiyuan still had the same bored attitude when it came to Chu Wuzheng's work. "Before the holiday this year, several bosses from my company had a dinner together."
"What's the matter with me?" Chu Wuzheng was very annoyed with this kind of commercial drinking game.
But Chu Shiyuan wanted this face. "You come here too! Everyone has their wives and children. How about your father and me alone?"
Breakfast was put on the table, and Chu Wuzheng asked Shen Shiyu to eat first.
"I understand, let's talk about it."
After he finished speaking, he was about to hang up the phone, but Chu Shiyuan immediately stopped him.
"Little bastard, who answered the phone just now? Girlfriend?"
Chu Wuzheng glanced across the way. Shen Shiyu was concentrating on blowing the noodles. He lowered his head and smiled.
"yes."
"How did we meet? How old is she? What kind of job does she do?" Chu Shiyuan asked questions one after another that he wanted to know. "Can't she be your colleague?"
"No." Chu Wuzheng held up the phone helplessly, picked up a bun and stuffed it into his mouth. "I'm eating."
"Then bring her with you when the time comes." Chu Shiyuan said.
Chu Wuzheng hung up the call and threw the phone on the table.
