At dawn the next day, all the family members of Mr. Chen got up early because they needed to entertain guests today.

Chen Xinli had the habit of getting up early. After getting up, she walked to the door of her eldest brother Chen Xinyu. When she was about to knock on the door, she found that the door was ajar.

She gently pushed the door open and walked in. When she was about to call her eldest brother to get up, she found that there was no one in the room and the quilt on the bed was neatly folded.

Chen Xinli thought that her eldest brother should have gotten up early to arrange the birthday banquet today. Although there were not many guests, there were about a hundred of them. From arranging accommodation and rest to the birthday banquet, it was still a time-consuming and laborious task.

Chen Xinli returned to the room, woke up her husband, and asked her fourth brother Chen Xinfu and his wife to get up together.

The weather is much better today. The storm outside the window has eased a little. Although there is still wind, there is no sound of rain.

It is a good sign.

Today is particularly busy in the villa. Because there are about a hundred guests, the birthday banquet is not held in the villa, but in another reception building next to the sea.

It is about eight minutes away from the villa. Xu Yao and his men did not sleep last night, so they went back to the small villa to catch up on sleep after eight o'clock.

The Chen family was busy preparing for Mr. Chen's 60th birthday.

Xu Yao slept for two hours and woke up at 10:35.

After getting up, he quickly brushed his teeth and washed his face, and then quickly went out and walked towards the reception room.

Xu Yao just walked to the street outside the living room, and looked up to see a familiar figure walking towards him.

He looked up and met the eyes of the person opposite him. The other party also saw him, and immediately retracted his gaze, turned around and prepared to leave.

This made Xu Yao feel very uncomfortable. Although the two of them have broken up now, in today's society, there are many people who can still be colleagues and friends after breaking up.

"Mo Xiaoqing, wait a moment." Xu Yao called her.

Mo Xiaoqing turned her head with a stiff smile, "Haha, good morning, Captain Xu."

Xu Yao asked directly: "Why did you hide when you saw me? Do you have time now? If you have time, let's go over there and chat."

Mo Xiaoqing suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She was afraid that Xu Yao would talk to her in such a tone.

Chat? What were they talking about? Was it about asking her not to be a police officer, or about transferring her away?

She followed Xu Yao with a heavy heart, and finally stopped in front of the stone bench in front.

Xu Yao motioned for her to sit down, and Xu Yao also sat next to Mo Xiaoqing.

The two of them sat down in silence, and could only hear the sound of the wind blowing in their ears, which seemed very awkward.

Finally, Xu Yao coughed twice and spoke first, "Mo Xiaoqing, do you know? It turns out that in my criminal police team, colleagues were not allowed to fall in love. But in the end, I broke this rule myself.

Do you know why I was against office romance before?"

Mo Xiaoqing shook her head in confusion.

"I'm actually afraid that one day we'll be in a situation like this, which will definitely affect the entire team. Our criminal police team investigates cases based on division of labor, cooperation, absolute trust and obedience.

If there's a gap between us, and the trust that's been built up collapses in an instant, then what's the point of division of labor, cooperation, and team spirit?"

Mo Xiaoqing understood a little bit after hearing this. Xu Yao was blaming her for letting her feelings affect her work.

If he wanted to fire her, he should just say so. When did Team Xu become so roundabout?

Mo Xiaoqing became more and more flustered. She clenched her fists, lowered her head and said, "Captain Xu, I understand. I... I will absolutely obey your arrangements. Captain Xu must give me a week. I need to go back and sort out my things. And you have to give me time to find another job."

Xu Yao was confused by Mo Xiaoqing's words. When he heard that Mo Xiaoqing was going to find a job, he became anxious.

"What did you say? You don't plan to be a policeman anymore?"

Mo Xiaoqing shook her head, then nodded, "No, I really want to be a policeman, but..."

"Mo Xiaoqing, this is a problem of attitude. You won't decide to give up your lifelong ideal just because of such a small blow."

Xu Yao said this, but in fact he was afraid that Mo Xiaoqing would disappear from his sight.

Although Xu Yao took advantage of his quick tongue after that night, he thought about it later and felt that the breakup was a bit too hasty.

Maybe Mo Xiaoqing really thought of Li Tianfeng as herself.

Mo Xiaoqing was completely confused by what he said, "Captain Xu, I have tried my best not to let my personal feelings affect my work in recent days. But if Captain Xu still wants to fire me, then I have no choice but to obey."

"Who wants to fire you! When did I say I would fire you?"

"Ah?!"

Mo Xiaoqing opened her mouth wide and stared, and when she reacted, her face was suddenly filled with a smile.

"Captain Xu, you don't mean to fire me.

" Xu Yao shook his head helplessly, "I called you here today and talked to you alone not to fire you, but to tell you that although we are not a couple now, I hope we can still return to the superior-subordinate relationship at the beginning. Do you understand?"

After hearing this, Mo Xiaoqing jumped up from the stone bench. This was the most comforting news she had heard in so many days. Although

she broke up with Xu Yao, at least she could watch him and know his movements. She was already very content.

She should regard the short three months of love time with Xu Yao as stolen, and she would treasure it for the rest of her life.

After seeing Mo Xiaoqing's smile, Xu Yao's inner haze, which had been accumulated for a long time, seemed to be swept away by more than half in an instant.

He couldn't help but ask again, "That... that night, did you really mistake Li Tianfeng for me?"

Mo Xiaoqing pursed her lips tightly, but still decided to tell the truth, "Captain Xu, you may think I'm quibbling no matter what I say, but in fact, I have never lied to you.

That night, I accidentally went to the bar to comfort Li Tianfeng, and then I drank a glass of wine with a hallucinogenic aphrodisiac in it. After I drank it, I was really thirsty, and then I saw you in the room.

Finally, when you rushed into the room, I knew that you were Li Tianfeng.

Captain Xu, you can believe it or not. I just want to tell the truth. If you don’t believe it, you can ask forensic doctor Lin. She found the antidote for me. "

When Mo Xiaoqing said this, the other half of the haze hidden in Xu Yao's heart was swept away, and he felt that why the weather today suddenly became so good?

Xu Yao coughed twice in a pretentious manner and replied in a rather cold tone, "Okay, I get it.

It's getting late, let's go to the reception room to do some business."

He stood up, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but keep rising up, twitching.

Xu Yao and his friends came to the reception room, which was full of busy staff and Chen's family members.
