Besides, even Boss Nie didn't care, so why should Song Yuanchao care about his wife drinking a little beer?
Yue Zhongqi felt that he was taking on too much responsibility by using only one chopstick to eat a meal.
Song Yuanchao understood Yue's jealousy, so he deliberately showed off his own expression to provoke Yue.
He added, "Captain Yue, it's very late. Drinking at this hour is bad for your health, especially for my wife."
Yue Zhongqi glanced at Chen Ke, winked, and thought to himself, "Look at how arrogant Song Yuanchao is now that he's gone through the proper channels. He's even starting to boss around other people's wives. He's a bit of a usurper."
Chen Ke said sternly, "Shut up."
He then said to Song Yuanchao, "It was just half a glass of beer, which Arou drank with me. Captain Song, please, don't tell your boss, or you'll upset him and his wife."
Although Song Yuanchao was a chatterbox, he certainly wouldn't talk nonsense about such things. He waved his hand and said, "No, Captain Chen."
Yue Zhongqi's lip movements: You, traitor to the people.
To prevent him from arguing with Song Yuanchao, Chen Ke quickly said, "Alright, we should go back now."
Chen Rou also stood up, gesturing for Song Yuanchao to pay the bill, and then caught up with the two of them: "Shall I drive you home?"
Just as Yue Zhongqi was about to suggest taking a taxi, Chen Ke said, "Let's walk back."
Chen Rou said, "It's dozens of kilometers; it's not an easy journey."
Chen Ke looked around. In the darkness before dawn, the city was deserted, with only a few food stalls still open and fish balls simmering in pots for who knows how long. He said sincerely, "Arou, actually I want to take a walk."
He stomped his foot again and looked at Yue Zhongqi: "We are the first batch of police officers to set foot on this land. I want to take a walk and see this place. There are fewer people now, so it's the perfect time to walk. Don't worry about us."
Chen Rou smiled and said, "Okay."
They're truly on the same wavelength, father and daughter.
She recalled her past life when she first came to the island to handle a case. After finishing overtime, she came out of the Hong Kong Police Station in the middle of the night and the first thing she did was exactly the same as Chen Ke: walk around and slowly look at the island.
But at that time she had no idea that, by fate, her husband would be working not far away, nor could she have imagined that she and her father would meet again, and on this very island.
In that sense, she should have been more compassionate towards everyone on the island.
Although she lived not far from the hotel, Song Yuanchao had driven there, so of course she had to drive back.
On the three-meter-wide bed, Nie Zhao had long since fallen asleep, curled up like a shrimp beside his son.
As for A Yuan, he can take up half of any bed, no matter how big it is.
He lay sprawled out, fast asleep.
Chen Rou took a quick shower, tiptoed to lie down on the other side of her son, and just as she closed her eyes, Nie Zhao said leisurely, "You've been drinking, haven't you? Beer, and it smells like you've had quite a bit."
Chen Rou had taken a shower and brushed her teeth, but the smell of alcohol was still in her stomach, so her breath reeked of alcohol.
Nie Zhao then said, "Sleep over here so the smell doesn't bother the child."
Chen Rou was speechless at this person's nitpicking.
But seeing that his son's nose was wrinkled, he had no choice but to turn over and sleep next to Nie Zhao.
She asked in a low voice, "You've been back for so long, haven't you slept at all?"
Nie Zhao hugged his wife and said, "I took a nap, but I had a dream, a nightmare."
Chen Rou understood: "She must have been too tired during the day and frightened."
Nie Zhao shook his head, slowly buried his neck in his wife's shoulder, and whispered, "I dreamed that A Yuan grew up and then went to a very far place. I traveled thousands of miles to find him, but he asked someone to tell me that he was too busy with work and refused to see me."
What kind of nightmare is this?
Moreover, in Chen Rou's subconscious, children should leave their parents when they grow up.
She couldn't offer any comfort either. She said, "Since the child is busy with work, parents shouldn't bother him. Once a child is over 18, he should be independent and self-reliant, not dependent on his parents. That's normal."
Nie Zhao paused for a moment, then asked tentatively, "If he grows up and leaves us, can you accept that?"
Chen Rou said, "Of course, children are destined to leave their parents when they grow up."
Nie Zhao suddenly couldn't continue the conversation.
Because you can tell what a person will be like at three years old, he could sense that A Yuan was growing up and would only be more rebellious and opinionated than him. And such a child was destined not to stay by his parents' side forever.
But what if it were a daughter, well-behaved and adorable, and just like Nie Han, attached to home and never leaving him? How wonderful that would be.
But if his wife doesn't respond, wouldn't all his moves be wasted?
However, Boss Nie will not give up. He himself abstains from smoking and drinking and exercises diligently. He also doesn't let his wife drink too much alcohol to maintain her health. In a few years, when A Yuan is older, he will definitely have a daughter.

Because of Cheung Siu-fai's avalanche-like downfall, the Hong Kong Police Force has started electing a new Commissioner of Police.
The initial nominees all seemed excellent at first glance. They had wives and children, and stable married life was a must for every candidate. At the same time, once they were publicly nominated, the competition began.
Who has an extramarital affair, or is secretly keeping a mistress, or is having an affair with someone's wife? Paparazzi will take photos and investigate these things. Anyone who is unwilling to spend money to cover up the scandal will be exposed, and in the end, not only will they not be selected, but they will also get a lot of shame.
Even so, the competition for the position of director was still extremely fierce, with several candidates taking turns appearing in newspapers, on television, and giving speeches at events, creating quite a stir.
Cheung Tze-keung has been quite timid lately, keeping a low profile and not letting a sound out of the ordinary.
In the words of the media, as the gun surfaced, he finally chickened out, fell silent, and dared not utter a sound.
But Chen Rou felt that this was the calm before the storm.
Cheung Tze-keung was also observing and waiting to see if his white master would step in to protect him. If he was protected, he would continue to endure, but if not, he would go all out and do something big before being re-arrested.
Of course, for now we can only observe and wait, hoping for the right opportunity.
Thanks to his older sister's strong efforts, Xiao Ayuan will be meeting several babies like himself for the first time in his life. Before that, he was the only baby in his world.
He thought he was the only baby in the world.
In order to give his son the same social experience as other children, Nie Zhao was on the verge of a breakdown.
