It wasn't that she didn't want Hanhan to know, she just felt there was no need to inform him about such a thing...
After all, no one wants their loved one to know about something so unpleasant, even if it was just something they were framed for…
"I happen to have a mission..." He stopped short of saying more, his expression suggesting he wanted to say something more...
His eyes darkened, his expression becoming somewhat ambiguous.
Mo Xiaoqing blinked. She was a smart and sensitive person, and even though she noticed something was wrong with Mengzi at this moment, she wouldn't ask him rashly.
She simply said softly, "I understand."
That was the Xu Meng of the past, who might have joked with Mo Xiaoqing a bit, but the Xu Meng of now…
"I'll probably be staying here for a while. If anything comes up, you can come find me anytime." He gave a token smile as he said this.
He did indeed only give a symbolic smile; now his eyes and face were filled with aloofness, as if he wished he could keep people at arm's length!
"...Huh, shouldn't they usually be on standby in the special operations brigade?" Mo Xiaoqing's big, clear eyes were full of curiosity.
Mengzi answered all the questions without any intention of hiding anything: "I've been transferred to the SWAT team!"
Mo Xiaoqing lowered her eyes. Although she didn't know what had happened to make Xu Meng transferred to the special police team, judging from his expression, it was obviously better not to ask.
Since Mo Xiaoqing didn't speak, Xu Meng was even less likely to take the initiative to speak. In their team, apart from the captain, only Shen Shaolin and Mo Xiaoqing had the best relationship.
He could only exchange a few words with Mo Xiaoqing at most, and as for what to say... he didn't know where to begin!
"Aren't you busy lately? If you have anything important to attend to, you can take care of this first. I can handle it myself!"
Mengzi curled his lips nonchalantly, "Of course, our captain has to come this time."
Mo Xiaoqing noticed that Mengzi didn't seem to smile as much as before, and his expression seemed to be getting closer to Ji Muhan's.
"What we did today was very likely planned in advance!"
"Our captain said he'll come over later and discuss the clues he just investigated with you in detail."
Mo Xiaoqing, with her delicate and pretty baby face, simply smiled habitually upon hearing these words and did not continue to ask questions.
Now that Hanhan has returned from the special operations brigade, what else is there for her to ask Xu Meng?
So after hearing this, she remained silent for a long time, until Mengzi thought Mo Xiaoxin wouldn't answer anymore, before she responded softly.
When he looked over again, a head of jet-black, glossy hair fell down, completely blocking Mengzi's view. He saw that her body was on the sofa, with her legs together and slightly bent.
Her slender arms were wrapped around her calves, her head slightly lowered, lost in thought...
If it were the old Mengzi, he might have been interested in guessing a bit or two, but now...
He only lingered on Mo Xiaoqing's hair for less than two seconds before immediately looking away.
Inside the office, all was silent, but at the far end of the corridor outside, a tall figure appeared.
The pale moonlight shone on him, casting a long shadow in the corridor. The tall figure standing with his back to the corridor somehow gave off a deep, aloof, and proud feeling, with an innate sense of detachment.
He unconsciously inspires fear in people, making them hesitant to approach him.
The bureau chief, feeling uneasy, went to greet him with a smile, saying, "You're too kind. The Special Operations Brigade has so much to do every day, and it's really kind of Captain Ji to come all the way here in person. How can I accept this?"
Upon hearing those words, the young man remained silent for a long while. The corridor returned to silence once more, so quiet that even breathing could be heard clearly.
The bureau chief had no doubt that if a needle were to fall to the ground at that moment, he would probably hear it clearly!
He frowned slightly in annoyance, glanced up at the tall, aloof figure, and then quickly looked away in less than a second, being careful not to let the young man in front of him notice!
