"Captain Chen won't be here for more than ten minutes."
After hanging up the phone, Pei Sui put away his phone, grabbed her hand, and feeling that her hand was a little cold, he took off his coat and put it on her.
"It's cold outside, let's go wait in the car."
Pei Sui opened the back door of the car and pulled her in to sit.
After thinking about it, I took out my phone and moved the restaurant reservation time back about an hour and a half.
Perhaps it was because of the warmth in his palm that the blood, which had just been cooled by the early summer night breeze, began to flow again little by little.
Meng Sheng just leaned his head quietly on his shoulder, letting his mood slowly calm down.
More than ten minutes later, Captain Chen came over with a subordinate.
Since they were all acquaintances, Meng Sheng didn't feel strange. She followed Pei Sui out of the car and greeted Captain Chen with a smile.
Captain Chen nodded, and seeing the coat she was wearing and Pei Sui holding her hand, he suddenly felt as if the clouds had cleared and the light had come to light.
He raised his eyebrows at Pei Sui meaningfully, but didn't ask any more questions. After taking the black locator handed to him by Pei Sui, he started to get down to business.
After checking the driving records on Meng Sheng’s mobile phone, he circled the car again to check for brake problems.
"It was tampered with. But the tampering was quite sophisticated. The signs of tampering aren't very obvious, but as long as the car starts moving and the brakes are pressed a few more times, the wire will break.
"When a car accident happens, I'm afraid the traffic police will inspect the accident vehicle and only find that the brake cable was worn out and broken because the driver pressed the brakes too hard and too frequently during the accident."
Captain Chen gave his conclusion with a somewhat gloomy expression.
This was a premeditated murder!
He looked up and said to Meng Sheng, "I'll have the traffic police to tow the car away for investigation. Miss Meng, if it's convenient for you, please go back to the police station and give us a statement so we can file a case."
Meng Sheng nodded, "Okay, I should."
She took Pei Sui's car to the police station and stayed there for about forty minutes.
When Captain Chen asked her if she had any enemies, she only mentioned Ning Weiwei's name.
Captain Chen knew about the dispute between Meng Sheng and Ning Weiwei. Two months ago, Ning Weiwei spread rumors and framed Meng Sheng and Pei Sui online.
The result was two months in jail.
Captain Chen also felt that Ning Weiwei had a strong motive for committing the crime.
He said, "I understand. I will investigate this matter. Please rest assured, Ms. Meng, I will inform you of any progress in this case.
As for the car, I'll call you after the traffic police inspect it and collect evidence, or I'll have it sent directly to a 4S shop for repairs."
"Okay, then I'll trouble you." Meng Sheng nodded.
After they had explained the situation to the best of their ability and helped them obtain evidence from the driving records, Meng Sheng and Pei Sui came out of the police station.
Pei Sui took her to the restaurant they had booked in the evening. Perhaps her mood was ruined by this incident, as she looked a little dull and her brows were slightly furrowed.
He tried to comfort her a few times, but it didn't have much effect.
When I got home, the elevator stopped on the 11th floor.
When Meng Sheng was about to turn around and say goodbye to him, Pei Sui followed her out of the elevator.
He stood in front of her, put his arms around her slender waist, held her in his arms, and whispered in her ear, "Are you worried or scared?"
If she hadn't been sharp-eyed and noticed the locator, he himself didn't dare to imagine what the consequences would be tonight.
Meng Sheng was stunned for a moment, then raised his arms to wrap around his waist and put his face against his chest.
Listening to his strong heartbeat, she whispered, "It's not that I'm scared, it's just... I feel uneasy."
Ning Weiwei is now like a time bomb buried in the gutter. Who knows when it will explode completely beside her.
Anyone who knew that such danger was always around him would have been scared out of his wits.
And now she just feels uneasy.
Come to think of it, it was all thanks to the text message reminder.
She is truly her reborn mother.
I don't know how many lives I saved.
Pei Sui hugged her tighter, tilted his head and kissed her temples, then said after a moment, "I'll stay with you tonight."
Meng Sheng shook his head gently, "Goodbye, you should go back and see Sisi. I'm fine on my own, and I'll feel much better after holding her for a while. Ning Weiwei won't be a threat to me."
Although the two are together, they still maintain a good sense of distance between them.
We didn't just live together just because we lived close to each other.
The chance of sleeping together at night is not even occasionally.
Pei Sui didn't say anything, just held her quietly, resting his chin gently on her head, then slowly lowering it to her shoulder.
He tilted his head slightly and buried it in the crook of her neck.
Smelling the unique light camellia scent on her body.
After holding him for an unknown amount of time, Meng Sheng pulled out of his arms, raised her head and kissed his chin, "Go back and get some rest."
Pei Sui paused, raised his hand to hold the back of her head, and pressed down with his cold lips.
He gently traced the shape of her lips, sucking and licking them, kissing her slowly and steadily.
When her breathing became uneven and she tried to open her mouth slightly to breathe, he inserted his long tongue and gently rolled up her soft tongue, making the kiss become passionate and lingering.
But Pei Sui strictly controlled the situation and let her go after a while.
Looking at Meng Sheng's sparkling eyes, his throat tightened.
He never tried to hide his desire for her, nor did he feel embarrassed.
Liking someone or loving someone carries desire in itself.
But he will restrain and suppress this desire.
She wouldn't let them break out of their cages easily and scare her.
Suppressing the restlessness in his heart, he pecked her lips again, his voice hoarse, "Go in, go to bed early, and call me if you have anything."
"good."
Meng Sheng crawled out of the gentle and affectionate swamp, a smile in his eyes, "Good night."
Pei Sui raised his hand and touched her face, "Well, good night."
After watching her go in, he turned and got into the elevator.
Meng Sheng threw his bag on the independent round sofa in the bedroom, ignored everything, and went straight to the bathroom.
While filling the bathtub with water, she threw in a camellia essential oil bath ball, then returned to the sink to wash herself.
After the bathtub was full, he put on a facial mask, stepped in and lay down.
Let every pore of your body feel comfortably relaxed and comfortable.
More than ten minutes later, she got up, drained the water in the fish tank, took off the mask, washed her face, casually applied some essence water and facial cream on her face, and was too lazy to do anything else.
He skipped and ignored all other steps.
It’s not that I’m tired, I’m just lazy and don’t feel like moving.
Not long after lying in bed, she fell into a deep sleep.
She had another dream, in which she saw her mother Xu Li. The picture was still blurry, including her mother's face.
She only saw her sitting in the yard, holding a paintbrush and a palette in her hands, and the warm winter sun sprinkled gold on her body.
This was the mother she had known for decades.
The distance was too far and she couldn't see what her mother was painting. She wanted to take a few steps forward to see the painting clearly.
But as soon as he took a step, the scene changed.
It was my mother who was holding her cell phone and talking to someone. She was walking hurriedly, her expression was a little tense, and there was a hint of anger in her. I didn't know where she came from or where she was going.
This dream is not kind, it is even a little bad.
It did not give Meng Sheng the answer he wanted, but instead it showed a lot of messy and illogical pictures.
When she woke up, she couldn't remember anything except that short scene about her mother.
Meng Sheng rubbed his aching neck, checked the time on his phone, threw back the quilt, got up, washed, and changed his clothes.
When she came out, she saw Pei Sui squeezing fresh juice for her in the kitchen.
She paused, this was not the first time she had seen such a scene.
Although they did not live together, they had breakfast together because they lived close to each other. As long as Meng Sheng did not work overtime and did not go to the hospital, Pei Sui would cook dinner for her.
She walked over and gently put her arms around his waist from behind, like a couple in love, and tilted her head to look at the several plates of breakfast on the counter.
His voice was cheerful and cheerful, with a hint of agility and playfulness that was rarely seen. "Well, breakfast is quite rich today."
