Chapter 322 Someone was kidnapped
As a result, Xia Weiwei was like being possessed by a demon. She still stubbornly blocked Shen Ci's way and begged for peace earnestly: "Ah Ci, we are also looking for a restaurant, why don't we eat together?"
"You can eat whatever you want. I'll treat you. That's my apology to you."
"And I just arrived in Longcheng today and I'm able to meet you here unexpectedly. Don't you think it seems like fate? Maybe this is an opportunity arranged by God for us to sit down and talk it out? Don't you think so?"
Her tone was particularly sincere and her attitude was flattering and humble enough.
But Chen Ci looked at her and responded coldly: "I just feel unlucky!"
It seemed that she didn't expect that she had already humbled herself so much, but Shen Ci didn't care about their old relationship at all and didn't give her a bit of face, even in front of her boyfriend.
Xia Weiwei's smile froze on her face, and her eyes were full of astonishment.
Her boyfriend Wen Kai seemed to have noticed something was wrong, but before he could figure it out, the man and woman in front of them had already passed them by and left.
Xia Weiwei came to her senses and turned around quickly, and saw Shen Ci holding her boyfriend's hand and entering a private restaurant.
She pursed her lips unwillingly. Although her eyes were red, they were full of jealousy.
Because she and her boyfriend had just come out of this restaurant, but they didn't leave after finishing their meal. Instead, they looked at the prices and thought they were too expensive and were reluctant to leave.
Her family conditions were not bad, but she still couldn't bear to go to a restaurant where the per capita cost was several thousand yuan.
"Weiwei, are you okay?" Wen Kai asked cautiously, "Did you have a misunderstanding with your friend?"
Xia Weiwei suppressed the emotion in her eyes and shook her head, saying pitifully, "It's okay, let's just leave it at that. Let's go."
Wen Kai didn't ask any more questions when he saw this. He just pretended to be happy and said, "I just found a restaurant downstairs that has a very good group buy. Should we go check it out?"
The word "group buying" seemed to have immediately irritated Xia Weiwei.
She had just said "it's okay" but immediately turned her head and glared at Wen Kai with red eyes, shouting out of control: "Group buy? Why do I have to use group buy? I came all the way to see you, and you take me to eat group buy? I only deserve group buy, right?"
Wen Kai was dumbfounded for a moment, not knowing why Xia Weiwei, who was always considerate, suddenly said these words.
He was a bit at a loss to comfort her: "That's not what I meant. Don't be angry. I'll take you to any restaurant you want to eat. We don't need group buying."
But the more Wen Kai said this, the more helpless Xia Weiwei felt.
Although she admitted that she was not as pretty as Chen Ci, at least in high school she was better than Chen Ci in everything except appearance. Why did everything change when she went to college?
Is it because Chen Ci chose the university in Longcheng?
If she had known this earlier, she would have chosen a university in Longcheng.
In the restaurant, Chen Ci and Tang Song sat down at a window seat. Tang Song had been silently observing Chen Ci's expression, fearing that her appetite would be affected by the person just now.
As Chen Ci flipped through the menu, she glanced at Tang Song, then suddenly smiled: "Why do you keep looking at me?"
"What happened to my own girlfriend?"
"I'm fine." Shen Ci didn't want to make Tang Song worry: "He's just an insignificant person."
The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and she didn't want irrelevant people to affect this rare date.
Tang Song was relieved to see this, but he still said to Chen Ci in an apologetic tone: "I was busy for a long time before I squeezed out this day off. I may be even busier in the future."
Chen Ci looked up at him and asked in confusion, "I can understand the nature of your work, but aren't you working in the internal affairs "Inspection Department" now? Why are you so busy all of a sudden?"
She wasn't complaining, she was just curious.
If you are working in the frontline "Criminal Police Team" or "Investigation Department", it is normal for them to become suddenly busy when there is a major case.
Tang Song explained calmly, "The city is carrying out a 'special operation to crack down on gangsters and eliminate evil.' This is a large-scale crackdown operation, and it will take a long time. All the police stations are coordinating closely with each other."
Tang Song couldn't help but laugh and asked, "You don't usually watch the news, do you?"
The Municipal Bureau even held a press conference specifically for this matter, calling for social supervision and encouraging citizens to actively report all illegal and criminal activities involving gangs. People who often watch the news must have known about this.
Shen Ci was slightly stunned when he heard this, and Yan Wenxi's face instinctively popped up in his mind when he listened to Tang Song's words.
Thinking of her brother's recent abnormal words and deeds, Chen Ci's heart sank.
But she quickly covered it up and nodded as if nothing had happened: "I see, then work is more important. Don't worry about me. It's just a few months of being a widow. At worst, I can go to a nightclub and order some male models to quench my thirst."
"If you dare, I will bring people to clean up the nightclub!" Tang Song said.
Seeing this, Shen Ci smiled: "I know you are capable, I was just joking. But no matter how busy you are at work, you must pay more attention to your health."
Hearing this, Tang Song whispered, "You know best whether I'm in good health or not."
Shen Ci gave him a glare, then turned and called the waiter: "A dozen Ginado oysters with lemon, thank you."
Tang Song: “…”

The next morning at nine o'clock.
Ji Yongxiu was still handcuffed to the bed in the hotel, lying on his back, waiting for the entire night.
The air conditioner was on in the room, and he looked like a shriveled orange without water, with a pale and yellow face and a listless look.
But he couldn't move, didn't dare shout, and couldn't get a phone to call for help.
I just vaguely felt like I was being fooled.
“Ding Di—”
Suddenly, there was the sound of a card swiping at the door. Ji Yongxiu couldn't help but look happy when he heard it, thinking that Dang Ning had returned.
But after the door opened, a middle-aged lady in cleaning clothes walked in.
"ah!"
"ah!"
The auntie couldn't help but scream when she saw Ji Yongxiu lying on the bed. Ji Yongxiu was also frightened and stared at the auntie and screamed.
The aunt ran out screaming and ran all the way to the housekeeping department on the floor to find the manager.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
When the manager saw the cleaning lady's panicked expression as if she had seen something terrible, his heart began to tighten as well. People working in hotels are most afraid of encountering murder cases, and the manager had already anticipated something bad.
But the aunt exclaimed: "Someone has been kidnapped!"
"Kidnap?"
110 and 119 arrived almost at the same time. Ji Yongxiu never imagined that the most shameful scene he would experience in his life was that he had to use tools to forcibly uncuff the handcuffs on his hands under the strange gazes of firefighters and police.
Because he had been handcuffed for too long and couldn't change his position, his limbs became involuntarily stiff due to stress, and as soon as he got out of bed, he knelt down in front of everyone with a thump.
The police officer stood in front of him and said expressionlessly, "Sir, please come back to the police station with us to take a statement."
