Chapter 81



The anger in Su Jinyu's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and he felt a hot current rushing to his forehead, and his cheeks turned red in an instant.

She stared at Zhou Youchen with her eyes wide open, her eyes seemed to be able to spit fire, she gritted her teeth and said word by word: "Get out of here!"

The voice was sharp and carried an unquestionable determination, echoing in the room.

Zhou Youchen looked at her like this, his lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but he finally turned around and left the room with heavy steps.

Zhou Youchen was upset and returned to the police station early the next morning.

놛 went straight to the commissioner and applied to replace the police captain who was responsible for guarding Su Jinyu's small villa.

At this moment, the police station was filled with a depressing atmosphere, like the calm before a storm.

Inside the police station, the chief sat at his desk, his brows tightly wrinkled into a shape of the Chinese character "川". His hair seemed to be thinner than a few days ago, as if he had turned a lot whiter overnight due to worry.

Looking at Zhou Youchen in front of him, he slammed the desk suddenly. There was a loud "bang" that was particularly harsh in the quiet office.

"What do you think we should do with this batch of arms?"

Zhou Youchen had several private letters in front of him. After checking them one by one, he calmed down and said in a steady tone: "Everyone wants this batch of arms, but the arms case was solved by the police station, so the arms should be handled by the police station. Various forces in the military are coveting this batch of arms. If we give it to any one party, we will offend the rest."

"Yeah." The director sighed, his voice full of fatigue.

"Originally, solving an arms case is something worth celebrating... All major newspapers compete to report on it, bringing great honor to the police station. Now these people want to fight for the arms, and we are caught in the middle, like a mouse in a bellows, getting bullied from both sides. What should we do?"

놛 said this while shaking his head helplessly, his eyes full of worry.

"Just give it to the Marshal directly." Zhou Youchen suggested, his voice clear and crisp, breaking the dullness in the office.

The director sighed again, it's not that he hadn't thought about this method.

Logically, this batch of arms should have been handed over to the Marshal, but...

The chief said slowly, "Although Marshal Su is a bit domineering, he is very reasonable. The police station lost many brothers because of this batch of arms. The marshal promised to give the police station a certain amount of compensation and hand over some of the arms to our police station for processing."

"This... is the best result." Zhou Youchen nodded slightly and said in agreement.

"yes!"

The chief responded, then sighed again, "Our police station is weak and powerless. Compared with the military, it's like an egg hitting a stone... Someone called me and asked me to take one-tenth of this batch of arms, and I will take the rest."

Zhou Youchen had an answer in his mind, but he still asked, "Who is it?"

The director did not answer, but just looked straight at Zhou Youchen, his eyes seemed to convey some unspeakable message.

"I can't refuse... So, you know what to do about this, right?"

Zhou Youchen was in charge of the arms case from beginning to end, including finding the real account book and discovering the Taoist temple where the arms were hidden...

Zhou Youchen understood the director's look, "What the director meant was that concealing the amount of munitions... would give an explanation to both parties."

The director nodded and said, "This is the only way... The accounts and munitions need to be reorganized. You should handle these two things thoroughly and don't let others catch you."

Back at the small villa, ever since Su Jinyu proposed the fake engagement, Zhou Youchen seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth.

Su Jinyu was extremely anxious and called the police station again and again to inquire about Zhou Youchen's whereabouts.

The police officer's voice was very calm in the receiver, like a deep, bottomless pool: "Investigation, please let me know if it's convenient."

Su Jinyu felt a nameless anger surge in her heart. She held the receiver tightly, and the veins on her back popped out. Suddenly, with a "bang", she threw the rotary phone to the ground, and the receiver collided with the ground, making a crisp sound.

"You're hiding from me on purpose, aren't you? Good job, really good job!"

She screamed loudly, her chest heaving violently, and every breath was filled with anger.

She stood up from her wheelchair and paced rapidly back and forth.

The wooden floor creaked as she stepped on it, as if accompanying her anger.

When Aunt Wu heard the noise, she hurried over from the kitchen. Seeing the phone on the ground, she frowned slightly, leaned over to pick up the phone, and put it away gently.

"Why are you always so angry with me? I've noticed something over the past few days."

Aunt Wu walked over to Su Jinyu, stretched out her hand and pulled her, saying softly, "Your foot is fine, you should walk less."

Aunt Wu's voice was gentle, like a spring breeze, trying to calm the anger in Su Jinyu's heart.

Aunt Wu continued, "Zhou Youchen does look handsome and delicate, like a well-fed young master, but in fact he is a very responsible person..."

Su Jinyu pouted like a sullen child, "I didn't say anything, why are you running away..." There was a hint of grievance in her voice.

"So what did you say?" Aunt Wu asked, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

Su Jinyu curled her lips, looking very ashamed, "Because there are some things to investigate, I want you to pretend to be engaged to me... You are happy to do it."

As she spoke, she tapped the ground lightly with her toes.

Aunt Wu loosened her lips, looked at her seriously, and raised her voice: "Miss!"

"ah?"

When Su Jinyu heard Aunt Wu's call, her heart skipped a beat and she had a good feeling.

She turned away subconsciously, her eyes flickering, "It's just... fake, fake."

Her voice was as soft as a mosquito's hum.

Aunt Wu sighed and said earnestly, "You said before that your marriage to Shen Jing'an was fake... and now your engagement to Zhou Youchen is fake... Have you thought about your own affairs carefully?"

Her eyes were full of concern and worry.

Su Jinyu knew what Aunt Wu meant. She raised her head slightly and said firmly, "I think very clearly. I don't care about these reputations. I know that when I separated from Shen Jing'an, the world would say that I was domineering and barbaric... Now that I am fake engaged to Zhou Youchen, there will be people who will frame me... But, Aunt Wu, what I want to do is just to protect everyone and keep everyone safe. I don't care about these reputations, money, and feelings. As long as everyone lives a stable life, that's enough."

Aunt Wu was stunned. She knew that the young lady had a lot of things to worry about, but she never knew why the young lady was worried.

She looked at the young lady anxiously and asked softly, "What happened?"

Su Jinyu shook her head lightly, a trace of pain flashing in her eyes.

Although it has not yet been discovered, in the past life...

Everyone around her was there.

She couldn't lose them again.
