Can We Say No to Divorce?-Chapter 788 - 539 Extra Close Heart (1)

He pointed at Song Ziyu standing next to him, and for the first time in front of everyone, he analyzed his own thoughts.

Song Ziyu was stunned, as he had always concealed his thoughts, and she had no idea he would suddenly say so many heartfelt things.

At that moment, Su Tianqing looked deeply at Song Ziyu, then withdrew his gaze amidst her astonished eyes, and said, "Because I trust her, whether it results in a loss or a profit, your town will develop rapidly. Within three years, you will be able to escape your current poverty. Your children will be able to study in spacious and bright classrooms, and moving on to higher education, even pursuing doctorates, will soon be within reach!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present was deeply moved.

All the people present were parents.

As parents, what they most wanted was for their children to succeed and achieve something great.

These big men, who were not well-educated and used force to solve problems, each of them bowed their heads, deeply contemplating the words Su Tianqing had spoken.

At last, Su Tianqing declared, "Whether we come to develop the town or not, the homicide has already occurred; don’t use it to threaten us, we won’t be intimidated! In short, happiness is our own to achieve!"

Happiness is the only thing that truly belongs to oneself!

Stirred by Su Tianqing’s words, all of them continued with their work, starting their tasks.

Each person, more or less, always has these kinds of problems.

The superstitions of the people in the town.

Song Ziyu’s grand ambitions, the challenges of implementation.

Su Tianqing’s route to love, the pursuit involved.

Gan Zi’s urgent case-solving.

Bai Ye’s burgeoning emotions, the rawness of a first crush on a girl.

Qiao Xiaoyan’s love dilemma, a choice of whom to be with.

Song Ziyu had never been this silent before, she had been under an enormous strain lately, something she hadn’t shared with anyone.

She had always handled all problems herself; the town was her blood, sweat, and tears, her personal initiative to establish, and no matter how hard, she must see it through.

Successful entrepreneur Ma Yun once said, "If you’ve committed to a dream, you must fulfill it, even if you must crawl."

She has never been one to give up easily, thus, the dream of the town is something she must fulfill.

However, Su Tianqing’s speech still took her by surprise.

As Song Ziyu was preparing to leave the craft site, she saw Su Tianqing going to see David: "What are you looking for him for? Don’t lecture him anymore; he’s also eager to establish his work!"

Su Tianqing glanced at her, "What do you think I am going to do with him? Really fight?"

Song Ziyu didn’t reply, for the first time not arguing with him.

Su Tianqing took her by the wrist, "Let’s go together!"

Both of them then went to David’s office, where David stood up and looked at them: "Ziyu, don’t scold me first, I was too anxious, I wanted to complete the work, I shouldn’t have made the field manager do those things..."

"I don’t have time to bother with these things!" Su Tianqing cut him off directly, "Draw a model of a toy, Qiao Xiaoyan has already roughly outlined it, it’s like this, you see, help me make it more three-dimensional, preferably like the prototype in this book..."

While speaking, Su Tianqing opened Yang Ji’s account book, and David immediately took it and started to draw carefully.

Song Ziyu stood by the window, the cold spring wind blew in, and she felt a bit cold, instinctively tightening her neck.

She watched as the tree branches budded, sprouting tender green shoots, full of vitality.

Su Tianqing draped his jacket over her shoulders, and as she was about to refuse, his look turned stern, threatening her if she didn’t wear it!

But, Mr. Su, chasing your ex-wife isn’t done by being fierce! Despite having a tender heart, he just couldn’t show it.

Su Tianqing waited here, not idling, he flipped through Yang Ji’s account book, carefully checking the entries line by line.

Here, Song Ziyu was the one left with nothing to do, so she said, "I’ll go to the hospital and check on Xiaoyan."

As a result, Su Tianqing said without lifting his head: "Bai Ye is taking care of her, why would you go and be a third wheel?"

"Don’t you dislike Bai Ye being with her?" Song Ziyu retorted.

At that moment, Su Tianqing looked up, his gaze intensely fixed on the somewhat haggard woman, believing that women should be like his mother, not needing to strive in their careers, and that shopping and dressing up sufficed.

Or perhaps, it was exactly because of Song Ziyu’s ambition and career-mindedness that he felt anticipation and fondness.

Song Ziyu felt somewhat uncomfortable under his direct and intense gaze, and although she tried to fight back, she had never experienced such a burning look from him before.

She blushed slightly and then pretended to casually look away.

Su Tianqing saw her clearly feeling shy, yet pretending to be nonchalant about it, and said, "Song Xuyao doesn’t know how to cherish her, so naturally she is ready to start a new mode of romance! If Song Xuyao truly treated her well, the outcome would be different!"

Is he talking about himself?

Song Ziyu did not respond, and currently, no one knew where Song Xuyao was!

But a woman’s youth really can’t wait!

Su Tianqing didn’t expect her to say anything, as the most urgent matter was to find the murderer, so he lowered his head and went back to inspecting the physical evidence.

The room was very quiet.

For the first time, Song Ziyu felt somewhat uncomfortable being idle.

David was busy drawing, looking very focused.

Su Tianqing was busy with the investigation, totally absorbed, to the extent that he even stopped teasing Song Ziyu, which he usually enjoyed.

Su Tianqing was accustomed to drinking coffee, thinking he was still in his office, he reached for his cup, only to find no cup there and then realized he was actually in David’s office.

He thought about making coffee himself, but given he had never actually done it, he decided against it!

Song Ziyu prepared instant coffee for him and David, one cup each, and also one for herself.

When she handed it to Su Tianqing, he naturally took it.

Hospital.

The hospital in this small town was quite rudimentary.

As the doctor cleaned Qiao Xiaoyan’s wound and applied medicine and bandages, Bai Ye said, "Be very careful, try not to leave any scars."

"Officer Bai, the expertise in this small town can’t ensure no scars," the doctor reluctantly said, "I can only ensure it won’t get infected and the wound will heal. If you are really worried, take Ms. Qiao to a bigger hospital in the city!"

"Alright!" Bai Ye immediately pulled Qiao Xiaoyan onto the police car.

Qiao Xiaoyan followed him into the car, "Where are we going?"

"To the hospital in the city," Bai Ye said, "You don’t want to be left with scars."

"Do you care so much about appearances?" Qiao Xiaoyan raised her eyebrows, which tugged at her wound causing a bit of pain, making her inhale sharply.

Bai Ye’s hand rested on the steering wheel, "What do I have to care about, as a police officer I only care about life!"

Qiao Xiaoyan didn’t respond.

"I heard you say you really care about your looks. Think about it, you had an accident on my turf, got injured by villagers, how can I be at peace?" Bai Ye added, "I definitely can’t allow you to be scarred!"

Qiao Xiaoyan felt warmed by his concern, yet, she did not forget her duty, "But, the case is more important..."

Bai Ye stopped the car, looked at her and said, "You know, in our line of work, when maltreated, we complain daily about quitting, but when it really comes to stepping back from work, we feel we’re betraying our hearts..."

He was saying this when his phone rang.

Bai Ye answered the call, then excitedly said, "Good news, the toy sample we took from Master Yang Ji’s house today matches the wood found with the woman’s corpse a decade ago, confirming it was a toy made by Master Yang Ji. I hadn’t expected Chief Su’s investigation to be so thorough..."
