A criminal police captain of the same level couldn't help but joked, "Xu Yao, you really found a treasure. Officer Mo is not only capable at work, but also a good cook. He can handle both the kitchen and the kitchen."
He looked up at Mo Xiaoqing and couldn't help but sigh, "Hey, why didn't I notice her at the time?"
Xu Yao reached out and punched her lightly, "I'm sorry, she's already mine."
As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately cheered and applauded.
When Mo Xiaoqing came over with a large pot of barbecue, she only felt the eager eyes and smiles of everyone around her.
Her head was dizzy and she didn't know what was going on.
Suddenly, a bold police officer asked, "Captain Xu, when are you going to get married?"
Xu Yao was in a good mood today. He held Mo Xiaoqing in his arms and said loudly, "As long as she is willing to marry, we can get married anytime."
The atmosphere in the open-air restaurant was warm and joyful.
Not far in front of the garden, there was a pool of water with a shimmering light. On a convex stone sat a depressed beauty in a long dress.
She held a wine glass and poured strong liquor into her mouth.
She was none other than Lin Yaling, the chief of the forensic department of the criminal police team. Mo Xiaoqing and Xu Yao had confirmed their relationship, and she naturally knew about it.
Although she knew that this day would come sooner or later, when it really came, she still felt extremely bitter and painful.
Recently, she felt exhausted physically and mentally, and she was in a bad mood. She had always been in good health, but she had a cold for a week.
What made her feel even more miserable was that Xu Yao would always come to greet her or buy medicine for her whenever she caught a cold.
But now she has taken several days of sick leave, but Xu Yao still didn't notice.
Mo Xiaoqing was really bored listening to the girls talking about cosmetics and gossip, so she got up with a glass of water and went to stroll in the garden.
She came to the pool aimlessly, looked up, and saw Lin Yalin sitting alone on a rock drinking.
Mo Xiaoqing knew that Lin Yalin had taken sick leave these days, so she walked over with concern and asked:
"Sister Ya, why are you sitting here alone? I heard that you took sick leave a few days ago. Are you better now?"
Lin Yalin raised her head slightly and replied expressionlessly: "Nothing."
Mo Xiaoqing was slightly shocked and stood there awkwardly, not knowing how to respond.
Lin Yalin smiled slightly again, but this smile contained too many emotions, including sadness, unwillingness, and disgust.
Mo Xiaoqing actually knew in her heart that this emotion was clearly shown to her. Women have the clearest sixth sense.
She had long seen that Lin Yalin's feelings for Xu Yao were not just as simple as colleagues and friends.
But Mo Xiaoqing had no way to expose it, because it would be mistaken for showing off her military exploits in the posture of a victor.
Mo Xiaoqing had no choice but to say softly, "Sister Ya, I'm leaving first and going somewhere else."
After saying that, when she turned around and was about to leave, Lin Yalin's voice came from behind,
"Mo Xiaoqing, please protect Xu Yao well. I hope you can break the curse in front of you."
"What curse?" Mo Xiaoqing asked in confusion.
"Nothing, you go and get busy first." Lin Yalin didn't intend to say anything more.
The dinner ended at 10:30. Xu Yao took Mo Xiaoqing's hand, got in the car, and sent her home.
He suggested, "Mo Xiaoqing, you can actually live with me."
Mo Xiaoqing immediately became nervous, "Living together...living together, I...Captain Xu...I'm not mentally prepared yet."
"We are already in this relationship, don't call me Captain Xu all the time, it sounds awkward." Xu Yao frowned and said.
Mo Xiaoqing blushed and lowered her head to ask softly, "Then what should I call you?"
"You can just call me by my name, or you can call me by Western names, such as Darling or dear, I don't mind at all." Xu Yao couldn't help but make a joke again.
Mo Xiaoqing got goosebumps when she heard it, and hurriedly said, "Captain Xu, then I'll just call you Xu Yao."
