  “Uncle Kun, how do you feel today?”


  Yuan Xuan sat beside Ye Kun and used a gentle tone when he spoke to him as though they had been friends for more than a decade.

  Ye Kun faintly opened his eyes and smiled once he had gotten used to the light. Although he had gone through numerous hardships, his handsome looks from the past could still be faintly seen on his face.

  Ye Kun’s tone sounded faintly distressed as he spoke, “Young Master, I’m still alright. I’ve recently been eating more than usual so I’ll probably start getting better soon!”


  Yuan Xuan took a box of cigarettes out from his pocket and reached out to pass them to Ye Kun. “This is the flavor that Uncle Kun likes!”


  Ye Kun glanced at the box. This brand of cigarettes called 1979 were specially supplied to the army. They were harsh cigarettes that could not be bought on the market.

  “Doctor Yuan will scold me if he finds out!”


  Ye Kun took the box from Yuan Xuan although his hands were trembling intensely. “I’ll hide them from him so that I can smoke them.”


  He sounded childish.

  Yuan Xuan smiled. “Third Uncle is an expert in the medical field. Frankly, you shouldn’t smoke because of your overall health!”


  Ye Kun sneered. His hand trembled terribly when he extended it.

  Since this condition had persisted for over a decade, he could not even lift bowls anymore.

  No one could have imagined that Ye Kun used to be the greatest sharpshooter in the past. His arms were long and slender while there were tough callouses that neatly lined the bases of four of his fingers. These bruises symbolized the discipline that he went through after experiencing hundreds of battles.

  “My hands are worn out while the rest of my comrades are dead. I’m the only one living a miserable life today. Aside from the times when I smoke and temporarily forget these things, I feel as though I don’t have a single redeeming quality……”


  Ye Kun’s eyes clouded over. He had been tormented by PTSD for nearly fourteen years!

  Yuan Xuan reached his hand out and held Ye Kun’s before whispering, “Uncle Kun, it’s all in the past.”


  Ye Kun’s lips faintly trembled before he shut his eyes. His hoarse voice sounded melancholic, “Young Master, you shouldn’t have saved me this time…… If you allowed me to go over there and accompany them, I actually think that it would have been rather nice……”


  “Uncle Kun, the last name of the person who wanted to harm you this time is Mu!”


  Yuan Xuan’s voice was deep and flat while his stern eyes were brimming with coldness.

  Yuan Xuan had remained silent about the Zong He poisoning case for a long time.

  Ye Kun’s body violently shuddered when he heard that the murderer was a member of the Mu Family. He clambered up from the deck chair and gritted his teeth together so hard that they made screeching noises.

  “I understand. Don’t worry, Young Master. I won’t die at the hands of this person named Mu!”


  “The woman who directly administered the poison committed suicide today! However, she’s not the only person that the Mu Family is manipulating.”


  Yuan Xuan exerted more force with his wrists and tightened his grip around Ye Kun’s trembling hands.

  Ye Kun laughed bitterly. His furious gaze was not as weak as before. His voice sounded rough and aged, “I have stayed alive miserably for so many years in hopes that I would see the Mu Family pay the price!”


  He turned his head and looked at Yuan Xuan when he spoke. His voice was incomparably miserable when he said, “Young Master, I’d like to see your pretty little wife……”


  Yuan Xuan nodded. This was the first time that Ye Kun had revealed his coaxing attitude. “Then be good, eat your meals, and go along with Doctor Yuan’s treatment. I’ll take you to see her once you’ve healed.”

  Major Crimes Department

  Mu Chenyan’s arrival shocked everyone. Had she not said that she was ill? Why did her complexion look rosier?

  Who could have guessed that this woman’s rosiness stemmed from the Third Young Master of the Yuan Family’s nightly lessons?

  There was a new case in the department. However, everyone was more surprised at the new development that Mu Chenyan had revealed regarding the Zong He poisoning case.

  As he had solved cases for many years, Wu Huai was filled with anger at the thought of such a simple case reaching a deadlock and becoming a dead case.

  He had certainly thought of visiting the hospital to forcibly pry open the mouth of the woman who was admitted there. Nonetheless, Zhao Yanni herself had been a victim of the poisoning case. She was fortunate that she did not die earlier despite being severely poisoned in comparison to the others. However, her testimony was barely useful in the eyes of the law on account of her mental illness.

  There were sequences in solving cases and rules that had to be followed.

  Although Wu Huai’s manner had always made him resemble a rebel, he certainly did not possess the characteristics of an actual one.

  He had allowed a golden opportunity to slip by because people were already dead. As of today, the only person who could tell the truth had committed suicide as a means of taking on the offender’s blame themselves. This forced them to close the case and Wu Huai was unwilling to accept this.

  There was a wooden square table inside his average-sized office. Wu Huai pushed a pile of files aside carelessly before opening a piece of paper on the table and carefully reading it over and over again.

  There were hundreds of doubts arising in his mind. Had Zhao Yanni really addressed her one and only suicide note to Mu Chenyan?

  That meant that Mu Chenyan was the only person who was worthy enough to be trusted in the eyes of the deceased woman. Although she was a suspected murderer of her daughter, Zhao Yanni still displayed an unusual amount of trust in her.

  Wu Huai raised his head and looked at Mu Chenyan. This woman seemed fragile on the outside but really she was actually full of vigor!

  He had initially assumed that she was only a beautiful but superficial woman who had asked Wu Ze for this job. It seemed as though the situation was not as simple as he had originally imagined.

  A new plan for Mu Chenyan emerged in Wu Huai’s heart.

  “Miss Mu, you may not be a criminal police officer but helping us solve cases is the duty of every citizen.”


  Wu Huai’s gaze shifted back and forth across Mu Chenyan’s body in consideration as he suddenly opened his mouth to speak. This upright man had never looked at his wife or in fact, any other woman in this manner.

  Mu Chenyan secretly laughed to herself when she heard Wu Huai spouting this official jargon. She could guess that this was not actually Wu Huai’s field of expertise.

  “Captain Wu, I’ll keep an eye on Ruoxin so don’t worry!”


  Mu Chenyan stopped speaking to Wu Huai in a roundabout manner without even waiting for him to directly state the conclusion.

  Mu Chenyan had always been humble towards Wu Huai. She was even more likable now when she treated him like an older brother whom she worshiped.

  “You’re so smart!” Wu Huai laughed while he deeply sighed in his heart. It was not surprising that Yuan Xuan doted on his Little Mistress so much.

  “Thank you for taking the trouble, Miss Mu! Did you enjoy your holiday?”


  Wu Huai had no idea what Yuan Xuan was doing. Why was Yuan Xuan keeping the Little Mistress at home after she had returned from East Bridge?

  The main point was that he did not know about the dangerous situation that Su Qingcheng and Mu Chenyan had encountered in City C.

  “Captain Wu, I should be able to return to work already!”


  “No, no, no. I meant that Mis Mu should stay at home and get more rest if you’re unwell.”


  Wu Huai’s smile was beaming.

  This normally completely serious middle-aged man would always laugh like this when he needed to make a request of someone.

  The people in his team would say that Captain Wu could only put on a false smile while others said that he looked worse when he smiled than when he cried……

  This much was expected!

  Mu Chenyan pursed her lips together and quietly chuckled when she recalled the things that her team members had previously said behind Wu Huai’s back. “Yes, I can even meet Miss Zhao more often if I spend more days lying around at home……”


  Wu Huai grinned and sighed. “Miss Mu is brilliant!”


  Su Qingcheng came out of Wu Huai’s office and approached them. “Tell me, what’s going on?”


  Mu Chenyan threw the file she was carrying into Su Qingcheng’s hands. “It’s exactly as it seems. Someone has acted as the scapegoat for the Zong He case!”


  “What are you planning to do later about that problem with Zhao Ruoxin?”


  Su Qingcheng suddenly felt that the Yuan Family Mansion which belonged to Luo Hai’s most illustrious family had become an extremely dangerous place. It was really difficult to determine the good people from the evil ones.

  Su Qingcheng was worried for Mu Chenyan.

  “Whatever!”


  Mu Chenyan laughed when she said that.
