【Resourceful and Charming Widow X Patient and Rugged Detective】In the eyes of the public, Jiang Shuiying married well. In just three years of marriage, she transformed from a rookie actress int...
You are the boss, listen to you.
Luo Yuwen's bed had been changed with new bedding, and it was clean and tidy, with only the smell of detergent. Jiang Shuiying took out her favorite perfume from her bag, sprayed it in the air, and finally lay down in the quilt and fell asleep comfortably.
On the other side, after Luo Yuwen finished washing up, he tossed and turned for a long time. As soon as he closed his eyes, Jiang Shuiying's eyes, shining in the darkness, appeared in his mind again.
What does she mean?
Finally he took another shower before he finally fell asleep.
Jiang Shuiying was delayed for a long time the night before and slept until noon. When she came out, she rubbed her eyes and found that Luo Yuwen was not there, but there was breakfast on the table.
After Jiang Shuiying finished washing up, she sat on the dining chair, drank soy milk, and took out her cell phone to send a message to Luo Yuwen.
Jiang Shuiying: [If you dare to leave your employer alone at home, be careful or I will deduct your salary.]
Luo Yuwen quickly replied: [I still have a salary? ]
Jiang Shuiying: [No.]
Jiang Shuiying: [So where did you go? ]
Luo Yuwen: [Zhong Yun called this morning and asked me to record a statement. I was the only one who saw Captain Guo kill Li Zhengzhong, so I need to testify.]
Luo Yuwen: [I've finished recording. I'll be back soon. What would you like to eat for lunch?]
Luo Yuwen in the Municipal Bureau had just sent out this message when he subconsciously felt something was wrong.
The two of them get along so naturally now. It doesn't seem like employer and bodyguard at all, but more like another kind of relationship.
Luo Yuwen wanted to withdraw the message, but found that the time limit had expired and he could not withdraw it.
Jiang Shuiying on the other side didn't think too much about it. She swung her feet and swallowed the steamed bun in her mouth, and replied: "I don't want to eat for now. You come back first. I may have to go to the court this afternoon."
Luo Yuwen: [I also work part-time as a driver?]
Jiang Shuiying: [So what? You don’t want to?]
Luo Yuwen: [No, you are the boss, I listen to you.]
Jiang Shuiying put her phone aside without replying to him. After throwing her breakfast into the trash can, she went into the bathroom to change clothes with peace of mind.
Luo Yuwen came back from the Municipal Bureau and told Jiang Shuiying that Yan Ying had confessed everything and also told the burial location. The children they killed were finally able to rest in peace, including his younger brother.
Jiang Shuiying nodded slightly and said that she would cooperate with the court as soon as possible and donate Yan Ming's property as soon as possible.
The subsequent investigation went more and more smoothly. A week later, Yan Ming's property was counted and Jiang Shuiying did not need to be involved in the subsequent donation matters. She had completely put an end to this matter and turned from a so-called wealthy widow back into an ordinary person.
They were both closely connected to the case, and no one said anything when they went out together. Their relationship became more and more natural, more like a partnership than an employment relationship, except that no one broke the silence.
After eating together for a long time, Luo Yuwen even remembered Jiang Shuiying's taste clearly, and consciously helped her pick garlic, chopped green onions and coriander, even though he himself didn't know why he did this.
The two of them had more and more physical contact, and Jiang Shuiying would even occasionally help Luo Yuwen when he was cooking. However, Jiang Shuiying never had such close contact as the last time.
Things like this cannot be rushed. Jiang Shuiying supported her chin and waited slowly for the man in front of her to help her pick out the fish bones.
As for moving, Luo Yuwen asked several times, but Jiang Shuiying said that she would have to wait for Yan Ying's verdict and execution before she could leave with peace of mind.
"I don't want them to know my address, and I want to see this through to the end. You won't have the heart to refuse me, right?"
Jiang Shuiying sat on the chair, looking at him with her head slightly tilted, her long eyelashes fluttering as she blinked.
Of course Luo Yuwen would not refuse her. In Luo Yuwen's heart, he really regarded Jiang Shuiying as his benefactor.
As for his other thoughts, Luo Yuwen pretended not to know.
A month later, the 613 organ trafficking case went to trial smoothly. Jiang Shuiying and Luo Yuwen, as important witnesses, also needed to appear in court to testify.
The two men were dressed in black and sat in the witness stand. Jiang Shuiying looked at the defendant Yan Ying, whose head was shaved and his hands were resting on silver handcuffs. She felt no emotion at all, as if she didn't know the person in front of her at all.
A month ago, Yan Ying was full of vigor and ambition, even imagining himself in a foreign country, holding a high position and countless wealth. But a month later, he became a prisoner, awaiting trial with regret on his face.
The final verdict was handed down, Yan Ying was sentenced to death and executed immediately. Yan Ying pleaded guilty and did not appeal.
The evening of the day the verdict was announced was the last time Jiang Shuiying came out of the court. There were no reporters outside the court at this time. Only Luo Yuwen was beside her, and she walked into Luo Yuwen's car side by side with him.
If the incident a month ago was the end of a stage, then this time was the real end of the drama. The stone in Jiang Shuiying's heart finally fell at this moment.
Another week passed, and one morning, Zhong Yun called and told Luo Yuwen that he could go and claim his brother's body.
"Okay, I'll go there later."
The two of them were having breakfast at the dining table, very close to each other, and she heard everything Zhong Yun said clearly.
Jiang Shuiying bit her chopsticks and bumped Luo Yuwen with her shoulder after he hung up the phone.
"Luo Yuwen, shall I go with you?"
Luo Yuwen put the phone in his pocket and looked at her. Jiang Shuiying's face no longer had the cunning and teasing of the past. Instead, her smile was gentle and warm. Their eyes met at this moment.
"good."
After coming out of the Municipal Bureau, Luo Yuwen came across his brother's body and came to the crematorium. The brother he had been looking for for many years turned into a small box, which he held in his hands.
Later, Jiang Shuiying also accompanied Luo Yuwen to find a cemetery and buried his brother next to his parents.
On the day of the burial, Luo Yuwen did not hold a funeral. It was just him and Jiang Shuiying.
Luo Yuwen originally wanted to go alone, but Jiang Shuiying said that she also wanted to see his brother off. Luo Yuwen changed his mind and thought that without her he might never find his brother, so he agreed.
The boy on the tombstone was only eighteen years old, and Luo Yuwen's younger brother remained forever in that rainy day.
Luo Yuwen stood in front of the tomb in a black suit, and Jiang Shuiying stood behind him in a black dress. Jiang Shuiying sensed his emotions and took the initiative to walk forward and hold his hand.
"We have already avenged him. I think your brother will know."
Jiang Shuiying's gentle whisper brought Luo Yuwen out of his emotions and he looked at her standing beside him.
Luo Yuwen knew that without her, none of this would be possible and he would be blinded by Yan Ying forever.
As he thought about it, a strong emotion rose in his heart. Before he could react, Luo Yuwen's body took the lead in his brain.
He pulled his arm out of Jiang Shuiying's hand, gave Jiang Shuiying a tight hug, buried his head in her neck, his voice trembling a little.
"Thank you, Jiang Shuiying, thank you so much."
Jiang Shuiying only took a few seconds to react before hugging him back and gently patting Luo Yuwen's broad back.
***
The approval of the death penalty takes time. During the waiting period, Jiang Shuiying still lived in Luo Yuwen's house. After Luo Yuwen's brother was buried, the two spent more time together.
Jiang Shuiying watched Luo Yuwen busying around in the restaurant, and a plan came to her mind.
She wanted to give Luo Yuwen a push.
So one afternoon, Jiang Shuiying dragged Luo Yuwen to the supermarket, under the pretext of wanting to make cakes.
Luo Yuwen was walking between the shelves with her arm in arm, and his expression was a little strange.
"If you want to eat it, just order it. Why do you suddenly want to make it yourself?"
Jiang Shuiying let him go and lowered her head to look for cream in the freezer.
"I don't care. I just want to eat what I cook. I can't get used to what others cook. You have to keep me company."
Luo Yuwen held his forehead, helped her pick out a cream with a better taste and threw it into the cart, and responded: "Yes, yes, I'll listen to you, boss."
The two came back from the supermarket with bags full of things, and Jiang Shuiying went straight into the kitchen. Luo Yuwen was curious and leaned against the door frame to watch her.
In Luo Yuwen's impression, Jiang Shuiying can cook. When they were at Yan's house before, Jiang Shuiying took the initiative to invite him to dinner.
He remembered that Jiang Shuiying was holding a soup spoon at that time, which surprised him. He thought that rich ladies generally would not cook soup.
After moving into his house, Jiang Shuiying was not polite at all and always asked Luo Yuwen to cook. She was just helping out.
But the more Luo Yuwen looked at it, the more strange it seemed. It seemed that Jiang Shuiying... didn't know how to bake at all. She spent a long time just whipping the cream, and the cream flew everywhere, making the kitchen a mess.
Luo Yuwen twitched his lips, walked over to her, and took the half-dead cream from her hand.
"Jiang Shuiying, can you really do it?"
"Or maybe you can cook but not bake?"
Jiang Shuiying was wearing home clothes, a white apron tied around her waist, her hair tied back, and there was still some cream that had just flown on the tip of her nose.
She blinked her eyes, held up the egg beater and said to Luo Yuwen:
"I can't cook. Why do you think I can cook?"
Now it was Luo Yuwen's turn to be stunned, "You can't cook?"
"I can't. I've never cooked before."
Luo Yuwen looked at her with a frown, but saw a mocking smile on her lips.
Jiang Shuiying grabbed the egg beater tightly to stop herself from laughing. "W-what happened?"
"Okay Jiang Shuiying, it turns out you were teasing me back then!"
"How did I trick you? I didn't say I cooked that meal myself. It was obviously your misunderstanding..."
Jiang Shuiying couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter. Luo Yuwen, with a smile on his face, dipped his finger in some cream and was about to smear it on her face. Jiang Shuiying dodged to the side and the two of them laughed together.
Luo Yuwen smeared cream all over Jiang Shuiying's face, and Jiang Shuiying was no less impressive, smearing cream all over Luo Yuwen's entire upper body.
Finally, Jiang Shuiying leaned against the cupboard. Luo Yuwen stood in front of her, grabbed her hand with one hand and pulled it aside, then smeared the last bit of cream on her face. Only then did the two of them finally stop fighting.
Both of them were laughing so hard that they were panting. After they stopped, Luo Yuwen realized that their posture was extremely ambiguous.
The air was filled with the sweet aroma of cream. Luo Yuwen's shoulders were broad and taller than Jiang Shuiying's, practically covering her entire body. Jiang Shuiying's gaze moved directly from his eyes down to her lips, her intentions obvious.
Luo Yuwen put her hand down, supported his hands on both sides of her, and slowly closed the distance between the two of them. The distance between the two of them was very close. Jiang Shuiying could even see the stubble on his chin. In addition to the creamy aroma around them, Jiang Shuiying could also smell the clean soap scent on Luo Yuwen's body.
However, just when Jiang Shuiying thought it would work, Luo Yuwen seemed to have thought of something and suddenly pulled away, and the two of them distanced themselves again.
Luo Yuwen's eyes were panicked. He avoided Jiang Shuiying's annoyed gaze and went straight to the bathroom without saying anything.
Jiang Shuiying looked at his back as he hurriedly ran away and gritted her teeth.
