Beneath the cartoon dinosaur's wide-open mouth lies a delicate and beautiful face.

"Where are we going? Where should we start moving?"

Chu Yuying's face was full of excitement, and her eyes were shining.

After waiting for so long, Chu Yuying finally got the chance to win over Xia Che. She vowed to do her best to make Wen Chenlu like her the most!

"No rush, they're downstairs, I'll take you there."

Wen Chenlu turned and walked towards the entrance. As she turned around, a hint of coldness slowly rose in her eyes.

Behind them, Chu Yuying cheered and grabbed Yu Shiyue's arm, hurrying to catch up.

Neither of the two women realized the faint killing intent lingering in the air.

Though faint, it has solidified into something substantial.

...

Xia Che, far away on the other side, was naturally unaware that Wen Chenlu had actually harbored murderous intentions towards her roommate, Yu Shiyue, whom she had no connection with at all. At the moment, he had other worries on his mind.

Xia Che's life used to be a simple routine between his home and school.

After getting to know Jiang Yu, a third point was added: Jiang Yu's home.

Besides, Xia Che didn't even know if there was anywhere to rest near his home, and with an law enforcement officer by his side, Xia Che was under immense psychological pressure.

After wandering around for a while, Xia Che still didn't know what kind of shop he was looking for. He only knew the location of the nearby internet cafes. He couldn't very well take the policewoman to an internet cafe.

What if we catch another elementary school student stealing their parents' ID cards to play games? That would be a disaster...

Xia Che did the same thing when he was a child, unwilling to harm his past self.

After going around in circles, I chose a coffee shop, thinking that given the intensity of law enforcement officers' work, they probably can't do without coffee on weekdays.

Just as Xia Che had predicted, Xiao Yihan held a cup of hot black coffee, looking very satisfied.

"I didn't expect you to be so perceptive. Did you notice that I looked a little tired?"

Xiao Yihan's face flushed red. She glanced at Xia Che shyly and then quickly looked away.

Today was not a workday, so Xiao Yihan naturally didn't wear her uniform. Instead, she changed into a beige long dress and wore a khaki beret to match. Her slightly blushing and shy appearance would make anyone think she was a law enforcement officer if she didn't say so herself; most people would just think she was a female college student.

Knowing Xiao Yihan's identity, Xia Che didn't dare to breathe too loudly and forced a smile, "Hahaha... Yes, I noticed you looked tired a while ago. Did you work overtime last night?"

"Yeah, it's almost the end of the month, and the department has a lot of cases that need to be closed. If the boss says something, we're basically running ourselves ragged. Yesterday I worked until the early hours of the morning, I'm so tired..."

Xiao Yihan sighed. That's how it is for working people. Even if they get into the system, they still have to work like beasts of burden.

But thankfully, Xia Che gave me this cup of hot black coffee to warm my cold heart.

We still have a long day ahead of us, so where should we go for fun?

It's a rare opportunity to be with Xia Che, so I need to plan this out carefully. Isn't this the date I've been dreaming of?

Xiao Yihan's eyes darted around even faster as one idea after another popped into her mind.

Who wouldn't be happy to go out with someone they like?

This is a rare opportunity, and I can't afford to waste it.

I need to do something meaningful...

For example, going to a wrestling gym is a good option. I often go there to relax in my free time and maybe challenge someone.

Or should I take Xia Che for a race on the mountain road?

Or perhaps...

Want to go bungee jumping?

Xiao Yihan became happier the more she thought about it, and her smile grew sweeter. However, to Xia Che, this smile looked like it was full of ill intentions no matter how he looked at it.

This woman...

Is he plotting to kill himself?

Xia Che sighed deeply, his expression one of profound grief.

Although some time has passed, Xia Che still feels that it's a messed up thing that Yu Shiyue was arrested for drawing her own book, which led to him being implicated as well.

What on earth is going on here...?

"Oh right, I almost forgot, I have a dinner party with my parents tomorrow... Oops... Am I too early? Should I have come tomorrow?"

Xiao Yihan slapped her forehead, realizing this thorny problem.

After the last video call with his parents, he had already made a boast to them. If they came to Jiang City this time and didn't see Xia Che, the marriage-urging storm that had finally subsided for a while would definitely come back again.

Moreover, the level of exaggeration will definitely far exceed that of the last time!

That won't do...

Why don't we postpone this one and come back tomorrow?

Xiao Yihan glanced at Xia Che furtively and noticed that his expression was also not very pleasant. In a flash, she understood Xia Che's thoughts. As an experienced law enforcement officer, she was very good at inferring the true intentions of others from their micro-expressions.

In that case...

It seems like I have a lot of room to maneuver, huh?

A plan gradually formed in Xiao Yihan's mind. She then smiled gently, breaking the silence, and said, "Didn't you invite me this time? So, what do you want to talk about?"

"Well..."

Xia Che touched his nose and tentatively asked, "According to the laws of our country, how long would someone like Yu Shiyue be sentenced to in this case?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yihan's heart beat even faster, and pink hearts seemed to be popping out of her eyes.

Such a caring friend, willing to go on a date with me for his friend's sake... this man is still damn charming.

That's responsible!

"Officer Xiao?"
