Ming Shu peeked at the files of four cases from the special investigation team. They had screened the networks of four victims, but found no overlapping suspects.

  Not daring to wait any longer, Ming Shu secretly photographed the files and took the pictures back.

  “Little Qi.”


  The living room was dimly lit. Qiao Cheng sat in the dim light and called Ming Shu.

  “Father.”


  “Has the policeman questioned you again?” Qiao Cheng’s tone sounded a little gloomy. “They said the murderer come out and did it again.”


  “Yes.”


  Qiao Cheng covered his face. “This time…… Will they catch the murderer?”


  Ming Shu was silent for a few seconds, then smiled slightly. “Yes.”


  Qiao Cheng seemed like he had been assured. “Don’t tell this to your mother now, tell her when the result is out.”


  “Yes.”


  Ming Shu told Qiao Cheng to go rest early, but Qiao Cheng only waved his hand to let her go upstairs.

  Yu Jing hadn’t returned and the room was dark.

  Ming Shu turned on the light and sat before her desk. She began to study the pictures she took at the station. The killer must have left other clues……

  Yu Jing was busy with affairs in the Yu family and came back late every day, but he insisted on returning.

  When he came back today, Ming Shu was already asleep.

  He took his clothes and went down to bathe. Then he went to bed softly and held Ming Shu from behind, nuzzling her neck. The exhaustion of the day seemed to be appeased at this time.

  Ming Shu turned over. “Yu Jing.”


  Yu Jing asked lightly, “Did I wake you up?”


  “Do you want me?”


  Yu Jing: “???”


  Was that his imagination just now?

  This girl who would turn her back on him after sex just now asked him if he wanted her? Did she mean what he was thinking?

  Yu Jing was still hesitating when Ming Shu slid her fingers under his clothes.

  “Wife……”


  Ming Shu could still divert her attention and ask, “Has anyone in the Yu family caused you trouble?”


  “They…… wouldn’t dare……”


  “Did you find out who’s targeting you?”


  Yu Jing’s body tensed and he breathed heavily. “I, I know who it is, but I haven’t…… I haven’t got evidence. Wait, wait for me to get evidence……”


  Ming Shu didn’t talk anymore. Yu Jing took the lead and soon there were only ambiguous gasps left in the room……

  The next day……

  Yu Jing looked at the person who was yawning beside him. “You don’t need to send me off.”


  “Who’s sending you off?” Ming Shu shrank into the passenger seat and yawned frequently. She said in a soft and weak voice, “I just want to eat soup dumplings.”


  Yu Jing: “.……”


  Were soup dumplings as delicious as him?

  As soon as he saw her face, Yu Jing felt all his anger drain away and his heart became as soft as a cloud.

  “How will you go back later? Or I could send you back again?”


  “Are you so idle? If you have so much time, just earn more money and buy me soup dumplings.”

  Yu Jing: “.……”


  Yu Jing pulled the car over and went to buy soup dumplings in a very long line. Yu Jing took advantage of his personal charm and soon got himself in the front of the line.

  After buying soup dumplings, Yu Jing got in the car and handed them over to Ming Shu. “Be careful, it’s very hot. Eat slowly and don’t choke. Here’s the milk.”


  Yu Jing stuck the milk straw in place and didn’t bother to wait until Ming Shu took it herself, but instead held it for her, feeding her.

  “Yu Jing, I remember that you said you’d never like me. What do you say now?” She didn’t forget that.

  Yu Jing’s hands shivered and almost spilled the milk.

  Did he ever say something like that?

  When?

  He didn’t remember anything!

  He never said that!

  “You remembered it wrong,” Yu Jing said, “I’ve never said something like that.”


  “Then who said that?”


  “How would I know which idiot said that.”

  Yu Jing leaned over and placed a light kiss on Ming Shu’s cheek. “I like you the most.”


  “Oh…… An idiot.”


  Yu Jing: “.……”

  Yu Jing parked the car under the company building. Ming Shu was wiping her hands slowly.

  Yu Jing unfastened the safety belt while asking, “Wife, do you want a goodbye kiss?”


  “No, I don’t want to be oxygen-deprived.”


  “.……”


  This relationship was really nearing its end.

  Break up?

  “Come, wife, let me transfer some oxygen to you.”


  “Get out!”


  They stayed in the car for several more minutes, then Yu Jing got out and asked his assistant to arrange someone to send Ming Shu back…… Special request: it should be a female who got married and become a mother.

  The woman who was called down was very uneasy. The newly appointed boss of the group was terrifying.

  So the woman was clearly stunned to see a soft and tender young girl in the car.

  “Hi…… Hi……”


  Ming Shu nodded with a smile.

  Yu Jing stood outside the car window and bent down to talk to Ming Shu. “It’s cold these days. When you get out later, remember to put on more clothes.”


  The woman was so nervous.

  Finally, as the woman was barely hanging on, Yu Jing touched Ming Shu’s head and said, “See you tonight, wife.”


  Then Ming Shu waved to the woman to drive.

  The woman could see Yu Jing from the rearview mirror, who was standing in place and watching their car leave.

  She thought she heard him call her his wife just now……

  Boss Yu had a wife!

  And he treated her so nicely!

  The woman quietly looked at Ming Shu; the latter was focusing on her phone with her head lowered. She wore a stay-at-home dress and her hair was a little messy, but with that pretty face, she gave out a kind of chaotic beauty, of just waking up in the early morning.

  She deserved to be Boss Yu’s wife with that amazing appearance……

  “Turn left ahead.”


  “Okay, okay……” Her voice was also so pleasant.

  Ming Shu leaned over and honked the horn, and the person walking on the main road was startled.

  “Are you sleepwalking on the street this early in the morning?” Ming Shu rolled down the window and looked at Ruan Xiaolian who walked by the roadside with a pale face.

  “.……Sister Qi,” Ruan Xiaolian greeted Ming Shu in a murmur.

  “Get in the car.”


  Ruan Xiaolian seemed to be unable to think and got in the car as Ming Shu ordered. Then she fell into a daze when she sat in the car.

  “Sister Qi, is it really very important to be matched for marriage?”


  “Did Feng Heng’s mother offer you a check to leave him?”


  Ruan Xiaolian was shocked a little. “You…… How did you know that?”


  “It’s all the same as on TV.”

  Ruan Xiaolian: “.……”


  The woman: “.……”

  “But you see, in the end, won’t the male and female cope with numerous difficulties and dangers and then end up together?”


  Ruan Xiaolian asked in a weak tone, “What…… What if it’s a tragedy?”


  “Sounds reasonable…… How much did his mother give you?”


  “.……Two million.”


  “Two million?” Ming Shu was shocked.

  “It’s……”

  Ruan Xiaolian assumed Ming Shu thought it was too much, even the woman also thought so.

  “What did she think she was doing? Driving away a beggar?!”

  Ming Shu searched out Feng Heng from the WeChat address list and directly sent a video call invitation.

  Feng Heng was probably having a morning meeting when he suddenly received Ming Shu’s constant invitation for a video call. Thinking that his girl was very sticky with her, Feng Heng lifted his hand to tell the others to continue while he went out to answer the call.
