The more Mu Qiao thought about it, the more worried she became. She suddenly thought of a way to help Deputy Captain Qiao, and immediately applied to Captain Lu, "Captain Lu, my second sister may know something. I want to go home on leave and ask her. Perhaps, I can learn something about Chen Shoucheng from her."
Lu Feng thought for a moment, "As Chen Shoucheng is the first victim, the people around him should have noticed something unusual."
With Lu Da's permission, Mu Qiao left the camp and went home.
After she got home, she found out that the police had visited her home every day for the past two days. As a result, Mulan's mood became worse and worse and she was close to collapse.
Mu Qiao immediately called the criminal police captain Ma Fei, hoping that the police would not come to her house again, and that if they wanted to ask any questions, she would ask them in person.
Ma Fei told Qiao Lubai about Mu Qiao's return home.
The military and police are cooperating, Qiao Lubai and Ma Fei are jointly solving the case. Ma Fei wants the murderer, while Qiao Lubai wants the mastermind behind the creation of the C+ virus.
Hearing that Mu Qiao had returned home, Qiao Lubai did not delay and stepped on the accelerator directly to the door of Mu's house.
Instead of just barging in, he called Mu Qiao.
...
...
At this moment, Mu Qiao was trying to calm Mulan down. After he said a lot of nice things, Mulan finally calmed down.
At this time, Mu Qiao's cell phone rang, and the caller ID showed Qiao Lubai.
Mu Qiao avoided the sight of her family and walked out of the house. After she went out, she actually saw Qiao Lubai leaning against the SUV, holding a mobile phone in one hand to call her, and rubbing his aching temple with the other hand, his handsome face full of fatigue.
Seeing him like this, Mu Qiao felt distressed. She hung up the phone, turned around and went home to get a bottle of Red Bull.
"Drink it and replenish your strength." Mu Qiao's voice came from behind. Qiao Lubai had actually noticed it, but he did not turn around.
He hadn't slept for three days and looked very haggard. He was worried about scaring Mu Qiao.
There was actually another reason, "He didn't want Mu Qiao to see him in this state."
He came here regardless of anything just to see if she was okay.
Feeling her breath was steady, he knew she was fine. Reassured, he opened the car door and was about to leave. Unexpectedly, Mu Qiao blocked the car and stared at him in a daze.
Qiao Lubai raised his hands to cover his haggard face, fearing that Mu Qiao would no longer like him after seeing it.
Mu Qiao didn't know what he was thinking. He opened the passenger seat, sat in carelessly, opened the Red Bull, and handed it to him, "Here!"
Qiao Lubai took his hands off his face, took the Red Bull that Mu Qiao put in front of him, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Drink slowly, no one is going to snatch the drink from you." Mu Qiao stared at him as if he was a thirsty ghost.
Qiao Lubai didn't look at her, but looked straight ahead and asked indifferently, "How are you?"
"I'm fine." Mu Qiao patted his chest, looking like he had a strong body, which amused Qiao Lubai, but he still didn't look at her.
Mu Qiao was a little puzzled. What was wrong with this man? He always stared at her when he spoke before, but why didn't he dare to look at her today?
Mu Qiao couldn't help herself and took action directly. She turned Qiao Lubai's face without any hesitation and forced him to look at her.
When she looked at him from a closer distance, she found that Qiao Lubai's face was pale, his eyes were scarlet, and there were scary red bloodshot. He was suffering from severe sleep deprivation due to staying up late.
"You woman, do you understand that there shouldn't be physical contact between men and women?" Qiao Lubai pushed Mu Qiao's hand away and turned away from her, seeming angry.
"How many days have you not slept?" Mu Qiao didn't care about his anger. She only wanted to care about his current physical condition.
Qiao Lubai didn't want to answer this question.
Mu Qiao didn't bother to waste time with him. He got out of the car, walked around to the driver's seat, opened the door, grabbed Qiao Lubai's wrist, and dragged him out of the car.
"Mu Qiao, why are you pulling me?" Qiao Lubai was shocked by Mu Qiao's arrogance.
Mu Qiao replied very loudly, "Drag you to my house to sleep!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Qiao Lubai's handsome face turned red, but Mu Qiao didn't notice anything at all. He grabbed Qiao Lubai's hand and took him home.
When Mu's father and mother saw this scene, they gasped. Didn't their eldest daughter dislike men? Why did she force a man home to sleep with her and directly send him to her own bedroom? Was this an official announcement?
Although Mu's father was surprised, he immediately pulled Mu Qiao to the yard to question him.
"Qiao, who is the man you dragged back and stuffed into the room? Does he have money at home? What kind of business does he run?"
When Father Mu saw that Qiao Lubai had handsome features and was dressed in luxurious clothes, he concluded that he was the son of a wealthy family in Yishui City.
Mu Qiao knew his father too well, and he knew exactly what his father was planning.
"Dad, listen carefully. Who he is has nothing to do with you. You can't ask about his identity. Also, he is the person I like. He is borrowing my room to sleep for a while. You are not allowed to disturb him!"
Mu Qiao's domineering words shut up Mu's father, but who is Mu's father? How could he, who has been working hard in the business world, be so easy to deal with?
Not long after, Mu's mother came to get Mu Qiao to talk.
"Qiao, who is that man you stuffed into the room? What is your relationship?"
Facing his mother's questioning, Mu Qiao was much calmer, "He is my leader, he hasn't slept for many days, I lent him my room to sleep."
Mu Qiao's answer was not what Mu's mother wanted. She wanted to ask more, but Mulan woke up. Mu Qiao quickly said to her mother, "Mom, I have to go talk to Xiaolan about something. We'll talk later."
Mu Qiao quickly pulled away and entered Mu Lan's room.
Neither Mu's father nor Mu's mother could get any information out of him, so Mu's father was unhappy and he began to seek help from outside forces to investigate Qiao Lubai's identity.
However, Qiao Lubai, who was locked in her room by Mu Qiao, was already fast asleep.
For some reason, he felt so sleepy as soon as he touched Mu Qiao's bed and pillow that he fell asleep after a short while, and he slept very soundly.
It was already evening when Qiao Lubai woke up. When he got up, he saw a note on the table that said, "If you wake up, go to the bathroom and clean yourself up, then come out for dinner."
Qiao Lubai obediently went to the bathroom, and when he saw the new towels and toothbrushes prepared, his heart was beating fast.
In the restaurant outside, Mu Qiao helped the nanny to set the table, glancing towards the stairs from time to time.
Dad Mu sat in the middle of the dining table like a big boss, holding a newspaper in his hand, but his eyes were secretly watching Mu Qiao's every move.
Mu's mother helped Mulan walk out of the room. After Mu Qiao's counseling for an entire afternoon, Mulan's mood improved a lot and she was not as irritable as before.
Mu Qiao helped her mother pull out the chair for Mulan. While she was talking to Mulan, a tall and strong figure appeared at the stairs.
Father Mu was the first to see it. He didn't even bother to hit him. Instead, he stood up swiftly, rushed over, shook Qiao Lubai's hand, and complimented him for a while.
"Mr. Qiao, you are such a handsome and elegant man. It is a great honor for me to have such a distinguished person like you visit my humble home. I, Muling, welcome you on behalf of my whole family. Come and take a seat!"
Father Mu pulled Qiao Lubai to sit in his seat.
Qiao Lubai was a little flattered by Mu's enthusiasm. Before he could say thank you, he saw Mu's father opened a bottle of 1982 Lafite for him. This treatment was too good!
Qiao Lubai felt a little dizzy.
