"Brother Yue, how's the investigation of the surveillance footage going?"
Ayi sensed that Sun Yue was angry, so he quickly changed the subject to Lu Yi's capture.
Without hearing Sun Yue speak, I heard a dial tone on the phone; Sun Yue had already hung up.
"What did the boss say?"
Another person saw A Yi put his phone away and came over to ask him a question.
"What are you going to say? Just hang up on me."
Seeing the person approaching, A-Yi rolled her eyes at them and said.
After leaving the hospital, He Xiang drove back to the police station while wiping away tears from the corners of her eyes.
The atmosphere in the police station was very oppressive. Although Lao Wu was only a section chief in the police station, he had worked there for a long time and was very popular in the station.
"What's wrong?"
Du Feng, who was walking in the corridor, brushed past He Xiang. Seeing that He Xiang was crying, he quickly walked up to her and asked her what was wrong.
"nothing!"
Seeing Du Feng blocking his way, He Xiang didn't want to say anything to him at all. He simply walked past Du Feng, said something coldly, and left.
"Why have you become so strange since you started dating Sun Yue?"
Du Feng watched He Xiang's departing figure, shook his head and said something before going back to his own business.
Still angry, He Xiang went straight to the director's office and sat down on the sofa, ignoring the fact that Lao He was talking to someone.
"Well, you go down and do as I say. If you have any difficulties, go find Sun Dahai, the captain of the criminal investigation team."
Old He watched as his daughter barged in, noticed the displeasure on He Xiang's face, turned to look at the police officer who was still reporting to him, waved his hand, and gave him a few instructions.
"clear!"
The reporting officer watched as a trainee officer entered the chief's office without knocking, simply sitting down on the sofa. This surprised the reporting officer. When the chief told him to leave, the trainee officer saluted, turned, and left the office, closing the door behind him.
Although the police officers didn't know He Xiang's identity, the fact that he could enter the chief's office like this, without the chief getting angry yet, meant that the two of them certainly didn't want anyone to know what they were going to talk about.
"I've told you countless times, don't let anyone know about our relationship in the police station."
Old He sat in his chair, and only after the reporting officer left did he stand up and walk over to He Xiang.
"Why are you hiding it? Almost half the people in the police station already know about our relationship."
Already feeling annoyed, he was further angered by his father's talk about hiding their relationship, and he spoke to Lao He with some rage.
"What? They know everything? How did they find out? Didn't I hide it well enough?"
Hearing that most people already knew, Lao He quickly sat down next to He Xiang, scratched his already thinning hair, and began to wonder why.
"Pfft, have you forgotten where we are? If the police can't even find this much, it just means that all your men are good-for-nothings."
Seeing Lao He scratching his head, He Xiang, who was originally angry, couldn't help but laugh out loud. Then she told Lao He why.
"Oh, right! If they investigate you, they'll know who we are right away."
After hearing what He Xiang had said, Old He suddenly realized and slapped his thigh, "How come I didn't think of that?"
"Old He, you'd better stop scratching your head, or you'll go bald."
Seeing his father's expression, He Xiang put his unpleasantness with Sun Yue behind him and put his hand on his father's shoulder.
"Why aren't you angry anymore?"
After seeing that He Xiang had stopped crying, Lao He turned around and looked at He Xiang, asking her a question.
"You were faking it all just now, you old rascal!"
He Xiang looked at Lao He who had suddenly asked him the question and realized that he had been tricked. He lightly punched Lao He with his fist and then turned his head to the side and said.
"Alright, do you think your old man is really stupid? I also worked my way up from the bottom to become the bureau chief. If you don't even know this much, you really underestimate your old man."
Looking at He Xiang's expression, Lao He confidently spoke to him.
"Tell me, what made my precious daughter so angry?"
Hearing that He Xiang had stopped talking and crying, Old He walked up to He Xiang and asked his daughter with concern.
"It's all because of Sun Yue! He actually yelled at me in public today!"
Thinking of Sun Yue's appearance at that time, He Xiang could no longer hold back her tears and started crying as she recounted the story to Lao He.
"Sun Yue is really outrageous! How dare he yell at my daughter! Just wait and see how I deal with him!"
Upon hearing that his daughter was crying because of Sun Yue, Lao He immediately became furious. Before he could even scold his daughter, he angrily grabbed He Xiang and went to confront Sun Yue.
"Dad, don't go."
Seeing his father about to go find Sun Yue, He Xiang quickly grabbed his father, wiping away his tears as he spoke to him.
"I wanted to go talk to Sun Yue on your behalf, but you wouldn't let me. What did you yell at me about? I don't think Sun Yue is the kind of person who loses her temper easily."
After being pulled back by He Xiang, Lao He gradually calmed down and was no longer as impulsive as before. He looked at He Xiang with some suspicion and asked him a question.
“Actually, I was also at fault in this matter. When Sun Yue and I went to check the surveillance footage... After he yelled at me, I drove back crying.”
He Xiang didn't dare to look Lao He in the eye, and then told Lao He what had happened.
"What? The woman you're talking about is named Nangong Qi?"
This time, Lao He was genuinely surprised. Hearing his daughter arguing with the Nangong family's daughter, Lao He, fearing he had misheard, asked He Xiang again to confirm if it was the name he had heard.
"Is this the Nangong Qi you mentioned? Is she really a member of the Nangong family?"
Seeing the shocked look in Lao He's eyes, He realized he had made a big mistake, so he kept his head down and nodded.
"It's over, it's over. The Nangong family treats Nangong Qi like a precious gem. Last time, Lu Fan was able to cause a scene at the police station because the Nangong family supported him behind the scenes. Since then, everyone in the police station involved in Lu Fan's affairs has been demoted and transferred. Otherwise, would your father and I, Sun Dahai, have been able to get our positions?"
Old He covered his head, leaned back on the sofa, and felt as if a mountain was pressing down on him. He closed his eyes and spoke to He Xiang.
"But we're police officers! Why should we be afraid of the Nangong family, or the Dongfang family?"
