Xia Shige nodded and replied, "Yes, Officer Zhou...what do you want to talk to my mother about?"
Zhou Hong opened his mouth, seeming to be hesitant to speak.
He was stunned for a few seconds, then shook his head and replied: "It's okay... I'm just asking."
Under Xia Shige's slightly puzzled gaze, Zhou Hong gave her a few more instructions, then turned around and left with Zhou Ran.
After leaving Xia’s house, Zhou Hong and Zhou Ran got into the car together.
Zhou Hong was not in a hurry to drive. He just looked at the night scene outside the window, slightly absent-minded.
Zhou Ran on the side rubbed his face numbly. During this period of time, he had been sending things to the Xia family according to Zhou Hong's request.
He could see that the Xia family didn't lack these things, and he could also see that Xia Shige was embarrassed every time he collected things. But he didn't know whether he was more embarrassed or Xia Shige was more embarrassed...
Zhou Ran really didn't understand Zhou Hong's intention in doing these things.
Zhou Hong even personally applied for two pistols for the Xia family - Zhou Ran felt a little resentful that his own nephew did not receive such treatment.
Zhou Hong was unaware of Zhou Ran's inner struggles. He tapped the steering wheel lightly with his slender fingers.
During this period of time, he was busy investigating the He family and the cult. Whenever he had some free time, the image of Xia Huiyin saving him from the sea of fire that day came to his mind.
Zhou Hong had to admit that human nature is to admire the strong. Now when he recalled that scene, his heart would still beat uncontrollably.
He clearly remembered that he was lying on the ground, on the verge of death, and it was Xia Huiyin who came over in the flames, holding a pistol. Her expression was solemn, her eyes were firm and bright, and she shot and killed Zhao Kuntai, pulling him back from the brink of death.
Zhou Hong is now not even sure whether the bullet that Xia Huiyin shot at that time hit Zhao Kuntai or his own heart.
Maybe it wasn't just because of that night - Zhou Hong still remembered that Xia Huiyin had shot and killed her ex-husband, Yadong, with a single arrow in the same way.
It was clearly her first time to kill someone, but her move was steady and accurate. When she was questioned about it later, she calmly said that she was willing to bear all the consequences. She was so determined and calm in the face of danger. The more Zhou Hong thought about it, the more he felt moved.
During this period of time, Xia Huiyin's figure was all in his mind. When he was in his 40s, for the first time in his life, he had the thought of being with another person.
This thought was like an old house on fire. It first lit a spark in his heart, and then that spark grew bigger and bigger like a prairie fire and could no longer be extinguished.
Today he came with two pistols that he had applied for, and he originally wanted to meet Xia Huiyin.
When he was about to succeed, he backed off again - he had no experience in pursuing women in his knowledge base, and he really didn't know what to say when he saw Xia Huiyin.
While Zhou Hong was deep in thought, Tang Shiqi and Xia Shige also got in the car and headed towards Yunjiang Hotel.
Watching the two people driving away, Zhou Hong showed a puzzled expression - where are they going so late at night?
Zhou Ran took the initiative to explain: "They should have gone to Yunjiang Hotel to attend the Wu family's celebration party for Aunt Wu Peiyi's research institute. The special medicine they developed was very successful, and it directly lowered the mortality rate curve of volcanic ash infection!"
"Aunt Peiyi, do you still remember her? Her mother and our old man were comrades-in-arms. When I was a child, I was fishing with her son Shen Zehuai. When the adults came, the boy ran away, leaving me alone to be beaten..."
Zhou Hong frowned when he heard this. Opposite the Yunjiang Hotel is the He family's Hanhai Hotel... He remembered Xia Shige's deeds of lurking in wolves' dens and tigers' lairs, and was afraid that she would cause trouble again and put herself in danger.
Besides, Xia Shige is Xia Huiyin's only daughter after all, and the mother and daughter depend on each other. If anything happens to Xia Shige, Xia Huiyin will definitely not be able to accept it.
Thinking of this, Zhou Hong interrupted Zhou Ran's chattering and said, "Send a few more bodyguards to follow them. There are still many criminals who take advantage of darkness to rob. Don't let anything happen to these two girls."
