Seeing Bai Qianmo, Chen Jingwen couldn't help but think of her equally eye-catching cousin.

If the two of them stood together, the scene would be as beautiful as a painting.

Qin Jingwen's thoughts drifted away, so much so that she didn't even realize the tea she was pouring was about to overflow the teacup.

A slightly cool hand suddenly hooked the teapot handle and gently lifted the teapot.

Qin Jingwen lowered her eyes in a daze, only then realizing her loss of composure.

She was holding a teacup in her hand; if she added any more tea, she would burn her hand.

How embarrassing!

She blushed slightly, feeling a little embarrassed: "Thank you, Miss Bai."

"Did you burn your hand?" Bai Qianmo asked casually as she sat down.

Qin Jingwen smiled and shook her head: "I was a little distracted just now, but luckily Miss Bai reminded me in time, otherwise my hand would have been in trouble."

Bai Qianmo replied calmly, "Just be more careful in the future."

The girl in front of me had a cold and aloof aura.

But Qin Jingwen felt that there was a glimmer of light in those deep eyes that warmed her heart.

Old Qin glanced at Bai Qianmo with his deep gaze.

"Wenwen, your Aunt Cao is making some snacks in the kitchen. Why don't you go and help her?"

Knowing that her grandfather and Miss Bai must have something important to discuss, Qin Jingwen nodded obediently.

"Miss Bai, Grandpa's legs aren't very strong. If he needs to walk around, could you please help him?"

"Okay!" Bai Qianmo nodded in agreement.

Only then did Chen Jingwen leave, relieved.

At this moment, only Old Master Qin and Bai Qianmo remained in the courtyard.

Old Qin said gently, "Speak if you have something to say."

Bai Qianmo looked at the old man in front of her and slowly said, "I want to see your son."

Seven years ago, the paranormal bureau employee who became a vegetable was Qin Lao's son, Qin Dongze.

According to data

Qin Dongze received a mysterious phone call back then and hurriedly left home, subsequently disappearing from contact.

There was something she urgently needed to confirm, but to see Qin Dongze, she needed Qin Lao's permission.

After a moment of silence, Old Qin readily agreed.

Since he had already handed over the 314 case to Bai Yatou for investigation, he naturally expected that Bai Yatou would make this request.

Before leaving the Qin family

Bai Qianmo went to Qin Jingwen privately and asked, "Miss Qin, may I use your dressing room?"

Qin Jingwen stared blankly at Bai Qianmo, somewhat puzzled by her request.

After realizing what was happening, he quickly nodded in agreement.

"Miss Bai, this way please!"

Bai Qianmo thanked Qin Jingwen and followed her upstairs to the second floor.

About twenty minutes later

A little girl with a sallow complexion and freckles on her cheeks walked downstairs.

Old Qin was sitting in the living room watching TV when he saw the little girl walking towards him with Qin Jingwen.

I almost spat out the tea I was drinking.

The girl was pretty, and I thought that no matter what I did, things wouldn't turn out too badly.

It seems he was grumbling about the little girl's drastically altered makeup techniques.

Bai Qianmo remained calm, not feeling that there was anything wrong with her appearance.

Old Qin took a sip of tea to calm his nerves!

"I'll have Chen Bin take you there later."

"Okay!" Bai Qianmo replied calmly.

*

Military Region General Hospital.

Qin Dongze's ward is located on the far east side of the top floor.

Sunny, well-ventilated, and quiet.

Two guards stood at the door of the ward, and immediately saluted when they saw Chen Bin.

"Lieutenant Chen!"

Chen Bin nodded: "How is Director Qin doing?"

One of the guards replied, "Everything is normal. The nurses have just gone in to provide care."

Bai Qianmo glanced at the closed door, her small ears twitching slightly.

A series of crisp "tap tap tap" sounds came from inside the ward.

That was the sound of high heels clicking on the floor.

Do nurses wear high heels?

With a slight change in expression, Bai Qianmo said in a deep voice, "Open the door!"

The guard then turned his attention to Bai Qianmo.

The girl in front of me was in her early twenties, ugly and with a rustic air about her.

Because they didn't know Bai Qianmo's identity, the guards were unsure what to do.

He could only look to Chen Bin for advice.

"Lieutenant Chen, who is this little girl?"

Chen Bin glanced at Bai Qianmo and coughed softly.

"Open the door."

He really couldn't understand why Miss Bai had to dress up so...eye-searingly!

Upon hearing Chen Bin's words, the two guards finally stopped looking at him with prejudice.

They were all from the Bureau of Paranormal Affairs and had seen many hidden masters.

Since it was sent by Elder Qin, their background must be extraordinary.

At that moment, a dark, blood-red light flashed in Bai Qianmo's eyes.

Just as the guard raised his hand to open the door, she suddenly kicked the door open.

Immediately, his figure flashed and he rushed inside.

The series of actions happened in the blink of an eye.

The guard who opened the door still had one arm outstretched.

They stood frozen in place, stunned.

What did he just go through?

Bedside

A nurse in white was bending over, holding a syringe, preparing to inject an unknown liquid into Qin Dongze.

Suddenly someone barged in, interrupting her plans.

She paused for a moment, then immediately put away the syringe, her cold gaze shooting towards Bai Qianmo.

Seeing that the person who barged in was an ugly little girl, the woman raised her eyebrows slightly, and a hint of contempt rose in her beautiful eyes.

He then quickly turned around and rushed towards the balcony.

Bai Qianmo suddenly raised her leg and kicked a glass on the coffee table away.
