Tang Yan didn’t want to go to the hospital to see Feng Shanshan and the child. Instead, he wanted to bring the mother and son back home.

  With the chaos outside, who knew if the Song family would turn on the three of them again.

  In the past, there were two of them, but now, they had a child.

  After going through so many twists and turns, he wasn’t willing to put his wife and child in danger.

  So, after arriving at the hospital, he helped Feng Shanshan pack up her things.

  “How’s the investigation going?” Feng Shanshan asked as she held their child in her arms.

  “It’s almost done.” Tang Yan carried the mother and son’s belongings and placed them on the chair. Then, he carefully took his son from Feng Shanshan’s hands. “Go pack up. We’ll leave the hospital immediately.”


  “Okay.” After lying in the hospital for a few days, Feng Shanshan had long missed home.

  “After this case is over, I’ll stay at home and accompany you for a few days.” Tang Yan coaxed his son as he said gently to Feng Shanshan, “I haven’t changed his diaper yet. I also don’t know how much he weighs. The child has already been born for a few days. As his father, I’m still out of condition.”


  “Okay.” Feng Shanshan nodded with a smile.

  After listening to Feng Shanshan’s answer, Tang Yan stretched out a hand and put it around her. Then, he gently kissed her forehead. “It’s been hard on you for the past few days.”


  Feng Shanshan shook her head again because she knew that although this man had been running around outside all day, he was still worried about her and her son.

  “After your confinement period, we’ll go and thank Fifth Aunt and Auntie Sheng.”


  “I’ll listen to you.” Feng Shanshan was very satisfied now that she had a husband and a son.

  The husband and wife brought their son home together……

  Sheng Xiao had been investigating the new people who had recently appeared around Song Jiang. With the joint efforts of a few people, they finally had a decent harvest.

  According to the information sent by Xu Che, this person’s surname was Feng, and he was known as Uncle Rong. He had been in the underworld for twenty years, and later, he had cleaned up his career overseas. He was ruthless and merciless.

  “This Uncle Rong and Song Jiang have been in cahoots overseas. I’m afraid Uncle Rong was the one who handled Lou Zhao’s matter this time.

  “The two of them have been close friends for many years, but they are not completely united. Song Jiang’s overall goal is to take revenge, but this Uncle Rong is seeking money.”


  “This person is also in Jianchuan right now?” Sheng Xiao asked as he flipped through the information.

  “Yes, I checked his schedule. He’s only been back in the country for a few days. In just a few days, Lou Zhao……” Xu Che nodded. “Just Song Jiang alone is already making people very uncomfortable. With Uncle Rong, I’m afraid that we will encounter a lot of dangers. Look at the Lou family’s incident this time. Everyone has stepped forward to block the disaster. I’m afraid that those two people have long seen you as a thorn in their side and will soon try to pull you out.”


  “No matter what, I’ll always be their obstacle.” Sheng Xiao did not take this to heart.

  “Next, investigate the relationship between Shen Mei and Uncle Rong and see if we can find any clues.” Sheng Xiao put down the information and gave Xu Che a task. “Tomorrow is Lou Zichen’s inauguration press conference. We have to attend as well.”


  “After what happened this morning, I’m afraid Lou Zichen’s family is scared out of their wits.”


  “Next, you take care of the security. The three of them will naturally be safe and sound.”


  Song Jiang should know by now that all the problems lay with him and not the Lou family.

  Next, there was no use in dealing with the Lou family other than using his own strength.

  “Then…… aren’t you taking on all the danger yourself?”


  When Sheng Xiao heard Xu Che’s words, he put down the pen in his hand and leaned back against the office chair. He smiled. “If these two really work together to deal with me, it’ll save me some effort. I’m just afraid that they’ll set their sights on the wrong person.”


  Xu Che knew that the ‘wrong person’ Sheng Xiao was talking about was Mu Qiqi.

  Everyone knew how important Mu Qiqi was to him. Moreover, she was pregnant, so it was much easier to deal with her than to deal with him.

  “This time, the Lou family is suppressing Yashang Group. The Song family’s business will expose more flaws. It won’t be long before Song Jiang won’t be able to sit still anymore.”
……

  Soon, it was late into the night.

  Mu Qiqi was at home, anxiously waiting for the results of Shen Mei and her assistant’s interrogation. However, even when faced with the evidence, the two of them displayed extraordinary mental strengths and did not reveal anything at all.

  When Sheng Xiao returned home, he saw the pregnant woman, who was eight months pregnant, not abiding by the rules at all. He immediately carried her in his arms and placed her on the bed. “In the future, when it should be time for you to sleep and I don’t see you on the bed…… Don’t even think about helping at the branch office.”


  Mu Qiqi leaned against the bed and pouted. “I just want to know if Shen Mei has confessed.”


  “You know very well that she won’t. That’s why you’re walking around the room.” Sheng Xiao exposed her thoughts. “These two people are well-trained. They have a lot of experience in dealing with this kind of thing. They won’t give up unless they make a ruthless move.”


  “Do you know who the person supporting them is?”


  Sheng Xiao reached out and hugged Mu Qiqi. He really wished that this thing was a little more muddle-headed and silly.

  “You’re pregnant now. You need to recuperate.”


  Mu Qiqi knew very well that she had indeed gone a little overboard during this period of time. Sheng Xiao had already fulfilled every single thing that she wanted to do. She could not ask for anything more than that.

  “I’m just afraid that Song Jiang’s sword will go off the rails and hurt you instead.”


  “Your man isn’t that easy to deal with.” Sheng Xiao let go of Mu Qiqi’s round body and pulled the blanket over her. “Sleep first. I’ll be in the study.”


  Mu Qiqi took the opportunity to pull Sheng Xiao back. “It’s been a long time since you’ve told your daughter a bedtime story.”


  Sheng Xiao looked into her eyes and they sparkled like stars. He nodded. “Let me wash up first. I don’t know why you’re so passionate about bedtime stories.”


  “Because I can lean into your arms, listen to your voice, and feel your heartbeat. Just thinking about it makes me feel very happy.”


  Sheng Xiao chuckled and pinched Mu Qiqi’s nose. “Wait for me.”


  Ever since they found out that she was pregnant, she had been trapped for eight months. She could not eat or play anything she liked. She had not even gone shopping or visited any beautiful places. Other than her home, she could only go to the forensics laboratory.

  Sometimes, just thinking about it made him feel bad.

  Hence, Sheng Xiao quickly washed up and returned to his bed. He lay down beside Mu Qiqi and hugged her. “What do you want to listen to today?”


  “Let’s talk about something scary,” Mu Qiqi said as she leaned into Sheng Xiao’s arms.

  Sheng Xiao frowned and put down the fairy tale book in his hand. It seemed that he had no choice but to make it up as he goes.

  It was a cold winter’s night……

  Meanwhile, the interrogation room was still lit up with a faint yellow light.
