Chapter 203 - Don't Laugh

Huo Yunqi will remarry Xia Luobing into the Huo family in a more grand way, becoming the most popular news in City A.

Xia Luobing flipped through a few pages of news and threw the tablet aside. She pressed her temple with a headache. She didn’t want to be a household name. Wasn’t the news spreading a little too quickly?

“Why are you unhappy?” Huo Yunqi hugged her daughter and sat at the side reading. Seeing Xia Luobing sitting on Ou Zuo’s seat with a sad expression, she gently pinched her daughter’s face and said, “Go upstairs and play with the building blocks.”

Duo Duo stared with round eyes and went upstairs with an expression of “I know everything”, leaving the living room for Daddy and Mommy, who were tired of thinking about it all the time.

“Bing Bing, what’s wrong with you?” Huo Yunqi closed the fairy tale book in his hand and sat down beside Xia Luobing. He reached out to embrace the woman who was sitting on the side with a sad face and said, “Tell me about it.”

Xia Luobing sat on Huo Yunqi’s lap and said unhappily, “I don’t like being noticed by so many people.”

Yunqi Huo picked up the tablet that had been thrown aside and scratched a few pages before realizing that the woman who had never been afraid of the heavens and earth was actually worried about this.

If it was any other woman, she would have cheered and jumped for joy long ago. Probably, only this fool in her arms would feel annoyed.

“Isn’t it good to let everyone witness our happiness?” Huo Yunqi smiled while playing with Charlotte’s hair.

Xia Luobing rolled her eyes and coldly snorted, “I don’t like being watched.”

The more things she experienced, the more she liked to live a simple and happy life. It was best for people all over the world not to pay attention to her and the people she cared about. It was good for them to live a simple life quietly in a small corner.

“Alright, I’ll handle this matter.”

Hearing this, Xia Luobing curved her lips and said, “That’s more like it.”

“Dingdong! Dingdong!”

The phone on the table suddenly rang. Huo Yunqi handed it to Xia Luobing and said, “Director Zhang’s number.”

Xia Luobing grabbed her phone and sat up, “Director Zhang, it’s Xia Luobing.”

Ever since she was injured last time, Director Zhang had let her rest temporarily and asked Li Xiang to keep an eye on the case for her temporarily. He didn’t know why she suddenly called at this time.

“Luo Bing, your case has made new progress. Come to the station immediately.”

“Alright, I’ll be right there.” Charlotte hung up the phone and frowned. How could the director call her personally for such a small matter? It was too abnormal.

Huo Yunqi looked at Xia Luobing’s puzzlement and frowned, “What happened?”

“I’m going to the station. You and Duo Duo don’t have to wait for me to have lunch.” Xia Luobing smiled. “I’ll be back as soon as I’m done with my work.”

Now, she didn’t want to part with Yunqi for a minute, but luckily, she still had a bit of rationality and didn’t want to waste her work.

When Xia Luobing arrived at the police station, Li Xiang was standing in the courtyard and was surprised to see Xia Luobing, “Boss, why are you here?”

“Isn’t there a new development in the case?” Xia Luobing frowned and felt uneasy, as if something was wrong

Li Xiang was stunned for a while before shaking his head, “No, I went to investigate after taking the case, but the flood washed away all traces and there was no progress at all.”

Xia Luobing frowned and looked in the direction of the director’s office. He patted Li Xiang’s shoulder and said, “I’m going in.”

“Boss, you can be careful!” Li Xiang warned worriedly. Obviously, he didn’t have a good impression of the new director.

Xia Luobing smiled as he entered the office and knocked on the door of the director’s office. When he heard a low “Come in” coming from inside, he pushed the door open and saw that there was another person who was stunned for a moment.

“Luo Bing, you’re here. Quickly sit down.” Director Zhang greeted Xia Luobing and pointed at the man beside him. “This is my university alumnus Ai Dasheng. He has important information for you.”

Ai Dasheng? Aiwei Wei ‘s father?

Xia Luobing looked in the direction of Director Zhang’s finger. A man with golden eyes was sitting on the sofa and looking at her. He was only around fifty years old. Unlike ordinary businessmen, Ai Dasheng had a scholarly style on him.

“Hello, Mr. Ai.” Charlotte greeted him politely and sat on the sofa opposite Ai Dasheng. “What important clues did you find?”

As Charlotte looked at Ada, he looked at her. When she asked, he handed her an envelope and smiled, “Officer Xia, take a look at this first.”

Taking the envelope, Charlotte knew that it was a photo based on her touch.

“Hualala!”

Just as she took out the photos, Charlotte’s ice hand trembled, and the photos fell on the floor in a mess like the wind blowing through autumn leaves.

The photos were all of one person, with a side face, a front face, a blurry face, and a clear face. Nan Qi, how could it be Nan Qi?

Charlotte looked at Ai Dasheng in shock. “Where did you get these pictures?”

Could it be that he knew that she had a good relationship with Nan Qi, so he wanted to block her for the sake of Ai Wei’s future?

Thinking of this, Xia Luobing’s panicked heart stabilized a lot. Her fingertips swept across the photo with a slight chill. She placed the photo on the table and continued to look at Ai Dasheng waiting for his answer.

“Luo Bing, are you alright?” Director Zhang looked at Xia Luobing doubtfully. He didn’t have a good impression of this subordinate who always liked to show off.

In Director Zhang’s eyes, Xia Luobing was neither a good policeman nor a good woman, and she had a deep prejudice against her.

“I’m fine. I just want to know the basis of Mr. Ai’s judgement that this person has something to do with the case. It’s not good for us to investigate others just because of these sneak photos.” Xia Luobing said indifferently, her calm voice carrying a suppressed anger.

She definitely wouldn’t allow them to go to Shanghai because they hated her. No one could!

Director Zhang knew what Xia Luobing said was reasonable, so he could only look at Ai Dasheng and say, “We comrades are the most serious in our work. Darsheng, quickly tell her the situation.”

“Officer Xia is really responsible for his work.” Ai Dasheng pushed the golden eyes on the bridge of his nose and smiled. “This man used to extort a sum of money from me, and I’ve been having people follow him ever since. It’s only recently that I’ve heard of him.”

“Too much!” Director Zhang slapped the table, “Da Sheng, don’t worry, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter!”

Ai Dasheng took a sip of tea and nodded, “Alright.”

Outside the director’s office, Xia Luobing sat on a chair, her brows knitted tightly as if she could not be smoothed with an iron. How could Nan Qi have anything to do with the extortion and serial murder cases?

His greatest dream is to be an excellent people’s policeman

“It must not be him!” Xia Luobing threw the photo in her hand into the drawer and locked it. She had already made a decision in her heart. She must solve the case as soon as possible.

Only in this way could Nan Qi’s dislike be cleared away. Otherwise, if the director really believed that it was him, he might send someone else to take charge of this matter. At that time, it would be even more troublesome.

All afternoon, Xia Luobing was thinking about Nan Qi. It wasn’t until Li Xiang knocked on her desk that she suddenly regained her senses. She widened her eyes in surprise, “What’s the matter?”

“Boss, President Huo is waiting for you outside.” Li Xiang pointed at someone outside the window and teased, “It’s been so many years, your relationship has always been so sticky!”

Xia Luobing looked out of the window. The man in the dark blue suit was leaning against the black Lincoln. He was looking in her direction. He could tell that he was in a very happy mood when he saw the corner of her mouth twitch.

“I have to go.” Xia Luobing glanced at the time and then looked in the direction of the director’s office. He warned Li Xiang, “Tell me when he, Ai Dasheng, leaves.”

Li Xiang snapped his fingers and laughed, “Don’t worry!”

Xia Luobing took her coat and left. Ho Yunqi saw her come out and smiled. “I’ll pick you up from work.”

“Hard work.” Xia Luobing said half-jokingly. He glanced at the two people standing at the door and said, “Ai Dasheng is here.”

Huo Yunqi looked in the direction of the office door and quickly retracted his gaze. He supported Xia Luobing’s shoulder and said, “Get in the car.”

Charlotte was stunned for a moment, but when she thought of Ai Dasheng ‘s slander of Nan Qi, she immediately pulled open the car door and got into the car. She looked through the window at Ai Dasheng who was still staring at them. Her mood was indescribably happy.

“Is it related to him that you came here today?” Huo Yunqi asked while driving.

Originally, Xia Luobing was still thinking about telling Yunqi about Nan Qi. Now that he took the initiative to ask, he thought for a moment and said, “Do you still remember Nan Qi?”

After the two of them made up, they had a confidential conversation. Xia Luobing mentioned the matter of South Seven to Yunqi Huo.

“What’s wrong with him?” Yunqi’s fingers holding the steering wheel stiffened.

Of course, he remembered Nan Qi. This friend, who was very special to Xia Luobing, had once made him feel threatened.

“Ai Dasheng sent a stack of photos to the police station to tell me that Nan Qi had something to do with the serial killings.”

Huo Yunqi turned the steering wheel and parked the car in the middle of the street garden. He frowned and asked, ” Ai Dasheng specifically told you about this?”

Charlotte nodded. “Yes, that’s why the director called me back. Is there a problem?”

Huo Yunqi’s expression was very strange, as if he knew something

Thinking of this possibility, Xia Luobing’s heart tightened as she stared at Yunqi and waited for him to speak.

“Ai Dasheng will never do anything that is not good for him. He is not a busybody.” Huo Yunqi said in a deep voice. His fingers on the steering wheel curled up and knocked. “Of course, he is not a person with a strong sense of social responsibility.”

So there must be some other reason why he sent the photos to the police station.

‘”Could it be that he knew that Nan Qi and I knew each other, so he deliberately …” Xia Luobing probed, but after thinking for a while, he shook her head. “No way, this is too childish.”

Yunqi nodded in agreement, “You’re right.”

The two discussed for a long time before coming to their senses. Xia Luobing smiled happily and said, “Don’t worry, I will handle this matter properly. It’s you who should be careful that Ai Wei doesn’t continue to pester you.”

A few days ago, Huo Yunxi called her to complain about Ai Wei Wei and reminded her to be careful of the woman who was said to be very scheming.

“Bing Bing, can I understand that you’re jealous?” Huo Yunqi smiled and said as he started the car, “Gao Yi’an will take Duo Duo away.”

Xia Luobing widened her eyes and asked in surprise, “Is there anything wrong?”

“He misses each other.” Huo Yunqi curled his lips. The craftiness in his eyes proved that this was not what he had said.

As a criminal police officer, Xia Luobing keenly noticed Huo Yunqi’s unusual behavior and coldly snorted, “Do you think I will believe it?”

She believed Gao Yi’an, but why would Huo Yunqi let Gao Yi’an pick him up because of this?
