Can We Say No to Divorce?-Chapter 766 - 517: Extra Jealousy Madness (2)

"Okay, I won’t leave!" Su Tianqing said, and then spitefully added: "Give me a kiss..."

But before he could finish, he let out a wail – Song Ziyu had bitten him hard!

"Song Ziyu, you heartless thing! I’m here keeping you company, and you bite me?" Su Tianqing looked at the teeth marks on the back of his hand.

Song Ziyu glared at him: "It’s what you deserve for trying to play ghost games!"

Seeing that she still thought he was messing around, Su Tianqing wanted to get angry, but upon looking at her, he changed tactics: "Even if it was me, what are you afraid of?"

"I’m not scared!" Song Ziyu released him and straightened her back.

"Then walk out by yourself!" Su Tianqing snorted.

"Fine, I’ll walk out!" Song Ziyu walked towards the door but stopped in her tracks when she saw Chen Hui’s puppet on the floor. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Su Tianqing watched her intently, "Song Ziyu, if you’re scared, just admit it! Nicely ask me, and I’ll take you out!"

Song Ziyu certainly wouldn’t ask him!

When Su Tianqing pretended to leave, he took several steps before Song Ziyu finally called out to him: "Su Tianqing..."

"What is it?" Su Tianqing’s lips curved into a smile, quite pleased with himself, "Yu’er, beg me, and if I’m happy, I’ll take you out..."

"For example?" Song Ziyu stared at him, her eyes almost turning into weapons, wishing to chop him into pieces!

Su Tianqing laughed: "For instance, you could act spoiled: ’My dear Tianqing, carry me out, will you?’ Or say, ’Husband, Yu’er is scared...’"

Song Ziyu snorted coldly: "Su Tianqing, you are unbelievably childish! Keep those fantasies to hypnotize yourself!"

Even if there were ghosts ahead, she would step out of the office building!

Seeing this, Su Tianqing said, "Alright! Since you don’t want to, I’ll leave first..."

With that, he strode off towards the exit!

Truth be told, he didn’t really want to leave her behind, but the girl’s tongue was too sharp. He had to teach her a lesson!

Moreover, he genuinely saw someone playing tricks!

So, he wanted to go out and catch the real culprit!

It might also be someone related to the case; why would that person wail in front of the government building? Maybe the wailer isn’t the murderer but could be linked to solving the case.

Seeing that he was truly about to leave, Song Ziyu hurriedly ran after him, wanting to leave with Su Tianqing, but in her haste, she stumbled and fell to the ground.

It was such an unfortunate fall, as she was just above Chen Hui’s complaining puppet...

In that instant, Song Ziyu was truly terrified out of her wits!

Crime scene.

When Qiao Xiaoyan and Gan Zi arrived, the entire mansion was pitch-dark. Qiao Xiaoyan felt a bit uneasy: "Professor Gan, it’s dead of night, and so dark, how can we see anything? I’m a bit scared!"

Gan Zi assessed the surroundings, "You are a forensic expert, but you’re somewhat afraid to be at the scene. Think about it, at 3am when the crime happened, what do you think went through the murderer’s mind?"

Qiao Xiaoyan nodded in admiration: "The killer must have been scared too, so they must have left meaningful clues at the scene."

"Exactly!" Gan Zi said, "Let’s observe from outside first, without disturbing the scene."

Just as the two were talking, someone suddenly rushed out, and a ray of white light shined over, with the person holding up a gun: "Put your hands up!"

"Officer Bai!" While dodging the white light, Qiao Xiaoyan called out.

Although it was dark and they could hardly see each other, they were very familiar with each other’s voices.

"Xiaoyan..." Bai Ye also called out, hurriedly holstering his gun.

When the flashlight’s beam lit up the newcomer, Bai Ye said, "Xiaoyan, why aren’t you sleeping so late? What brings you here? You scared me, I thought the killer was revisiting the scene! And Professor Gan, why are you here too?"

Qiao Xiaoyan said: "Professor Gan will join our investigation team. He is concerned about the impact on the town’s development and hopes to solve the case as soon as possible. So, in the dead of night, he came to empathize with the killer’s psychological state. We were in the middle of that when suddenly you showed up with a gun."

"I see!" Bai Ye scratched his head, "I’ve got brothers taking turns guarding this place. How about this: we can’t see much of the scene now, let’s go rest at the village chief’s house and continue the investigation early tomorrow."

So, the group headed to the village chief’s house.

The village chief’s house served as a makeshift task force center. The village chief had never seen such a brutal case before. He was still awake, waiting for Bai Ye’s return.

He had met Qiao Xiaoyan before, but when he saw Gan Zi, "This is..."

"This is Professor Gan!" Bai Ye introduced: "He’s helping us solve the case with his expertise in criminology and psychology."

The village chief was utterly astonished that such a professor had been brought in.

"Please sit!" The village chief invited them inside, "You all must be hungry! It’s still a bit cold in the village during spring, let me cook some late-night snack for everyone!"

Qiao Xiaoyan stood up and said: "No need to trouble yourself, village chief, we can handle it. You go and rest!"

Bai Ye was already hungry. As a strong young man, after being busy all night, he had indeed expended a lot of energy.

"You can cook?" Bai Ye stepped forward.

"My sister owns a restaurant." Qiao Xiaoyan said, "You must be hungry! Just wait a moment, and you’ll have a late-night snack!"

"Thank you!" Bai Ye felt a bit embarrassed, having thought that a delicate young lady from the big city would be too refined for such worldly concerns!

At this moment, Qiao Xiaoyan turned to Gan Zi, who was deep in thought, walked over to him and whispered, "Professor Gan, I’m going to cook some noodles, would you like some?"

"Okay!" Gan Zi nodded, without saying anything else.

After Qiao Xiaoyan went off to cook the noodles, Bai Ye stayed in the room with Gan Zi. He wanted to talk, but seeing Gan Zi wrapped up in his thoughts, decided to head to the kitchen instead.

In the kitchen, Qiao Xiaoyan was starting a fire. Because this rural area was extremely poor, there was no gas or induction cooker, only firewood for cooking meals and boiling noodles.

"Wow, you know how to do this too?" Bai Ye walked in, "Let me help you with that!"

Qiao Xiaoyan had already lit the fire: "I’ve never done it before, but in theory, I know how! You could help me add some firewood then!"

Bai Ye was more than willing, adding wood to the fire from time to time.

Qiao Xiaoyan added water to the pot and took out some eggs, then washed some greens, "We only have plain noodles, you can have meat when you get back to the city!"

"I can’t eat meat anyway!" Bai Ye admitted, "After seeing that murder scene, I nearly couldn’t hold back, just like the Mayor was about to throw up! But, Xiaoyan, you’re amazing!"

"Actually, my heart is heavy too, but it’s my profession. No matter how upset I am, it won’t help. I have to find the killer and let her rest in peace," Qiao Xiaoyan said softly.

Seeing the mood grow somber, Bai Ye said, "Yeah, we’re all the same in this respect. By the way, how big is your sister’s restaurant? Once this case is over, I’m going to A City to feast, and you’re treating!"

"No problem!" Qiao Xiaoyan agreed cheerfully, "No need to add more firewood now, Officer Bai. The noodles are ready, this largest bowl is yours, the smallest is mine, and the medium one is for Professor Gan..."

"Then I won’t hold back!" Bai Ye said happily, "In such cold weather, after such a tiring time, having a bowl of steaming noodles really feels like bliss!"

"You’re too easily satisfied!" As Qiao Xiaoyan took Gan Zi’s bowl of noodles to him, she saw that he was still sitting by the window deep in thought and didn’t disturb him, placing the bowl by his side before returning to enjoy the late-night snack with Bai Ye.

When Qiao Xiaoyan brought back the noodles, Bai Ye had already finished speaking at length, and seeing him relish the food, she said, "Take half of my noodles too!"
