Chapter 130 Yang Wenjing
A few days later, Yu Qiwen's parents came to see Xia Mufan.
Yu Qiwen's parents are professors of the Chinese Department of Hunan University. They are nearly fifty years old and have gray hair on their temples. When they saw Xia Mufan in the reception room of the Criminal Investigation Brigade, they said with tears in their eyes: "Blame me, blame us. We taught Qiwen to be too obedient, too well-behaved, and too kind. We didn't teach her how to protect herself, and we didn't tell her that the most important thing when encountering difficulties is to save her life."
Thinking of the lonely grave in Hongfeng Village, Xia Mufan felt heavy in his heart.
I heard from Yeats that when Yu Qiwen was in her senior year and was collecting folk songs, she was lured to a secluded place at the train station by a poor old woman who asked for directions. After she fainted, she was sold to Hongfeng Village.
After discovering that she had been abducted, Yu Qiwen was extremely angry and determined. She resisted countless times and tried to escape whenever she found a chance. As a result, her legs were broken and she died from infected wounds.
After receiving the call from the police, Yu Qiwen's parents rushed to Hongfeng Village immediately, dug out their daughter's body from Hongfeng Village, cremated it on the spot, and then returned home with the ashes. Every day when they looked at their daughter's photo, they were filled with regret and guilt, and the self-blame almost suffocated them.
Because the pain was too great, the two wanted to know more about their daughter's life after being abducted. It seemed that only in this way could they fill the gaps in their memories and make the regret less severe.
Yu Qiwen's parents found out that Yeats had a good relationship with their daughter, so they went to find Yeats. But after hearing Yeats' words, the pain in their hearts not only did not subside, but increased exponentially. They didn't expect that their daughter, who was cherished by both of them and was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, was beaten to death in that small mountain village.
It was not until Yeats accidentally mentioned that Xia Mufan's mother Xu Shumei was writing a documentary novel about trafficked women that the attention of the two Chinese professors was immediately attracted.
Looking at Xia Mufan, who was wearing a police uniform and looked so handsome, Yu Qiwen's parents pleaded with their eyes: "Please tell your mother that the book she is writing now is very meaningful. We have some connections in the publishing industry, and we are willing to sponsor the publication once the manuscript is completed. Please give us this opportunity, we are willing to do our best to help those women who have been trafficked and warn innocent girls to be wary of bad people. I think Qiwen would also be willing to see the publication of this book if she knew about it in her afterlife."
The two elegant professors cried loudly in the reception room, their voices choked with sobs, but they still tried to remain calm and restrained. Seeing them like this, Xia Mufan couldn't bear it, so he nodded and promised, "Okay, I will tell my mother that as soon as the book is written, I will ask you two to review it as soon as possible."
After getting Xia Mufan's promise, Yu Qiwen's parents supported each other and left the Criminal Brigade. Their sad backs made people cry.
What a good family! What a hateful human trafficker!
After hearing what Xia Mufan relayed, Xu Shumei suddenly felt pressured. Because of the pressure, Xu Shumei devoted most of her time to writing, and naturally she relaxed a lot more on housework at home.
However, Xia Mufan understood and supported it very much. Originally, she was supposed to go to the cafeteria to get meals every day, but Gu Shaoqi volunteered to come and cook as soon as he got off work. The three of them, a cat and a dog were chatting and laughing in the same room, having a great time.
Life passed slowly in the daily necessities, and the relationship between Xia Mufan and Gu Shaoqi gradually warmed up.
On the National Day, Gong Weiguo and Qiao Zhimin held a banquet at the Mayflower Hotel near their workplace. They set up more than a dozen tables at once. A large number of police officers and teachers came, and the scene was very lively.
Feng Xiaoyu and Ye Rong sat side by side at the wine table. She looked up and saw Xia Mufan and Gu Shaoqi sitting together tacitly. The naturalness and familiarity between their eyebrows made her happy. She leaned close to Xia Mufan's ear and asked, "Hey, are you guys... together?"
Xia Mufan nodded generously: "Yes."
Gu Shaoqi didn't expect Xia Mufan to acknowledge his status so quickly. For a moment, he was so happy that he almost exploded. He opened his mouth for a long time without saying anything.
Sun Xianbing heard the conversation between Feng Xiaoyu and Xia Mufan, and looked at Gu Shaoqi carefully. Although there was no news about Xia Mufan's love affair, he felt a little ignored as a senior. But when I think about it, Gu has a rich medical background, good looks, and a gentle personality, so I guess he is worthy of being our team leader.
Xia Mushi looked at the curious team members and said in a natural manner: "I think he is very good. He is good-looking, can cook, and listens to me in everything. Compared with coal ash and ice cream, he is more considerate."
Hearing his girlfriend's comments, Gu Shaoqi just smiled and said nothing, feeling very happy.
Feng Xiaoyu quietly asked Xia Mufan: "When did you two get together? How come I didn't hear anything? I told you before that forensic doctor Gu liked you, but you didn't believe it and said that having a pet is worse than having a boyfriend, hehe."
Xia Mufan glanced at her and Ye Rong and joked, "Seeing you and Ye Rong being so sweet, I also want to fall in love."
Feng Xiaoyu patted the back of her hand and said angrily, "Speak seriously."
There are only two girls in the Serious Crime Unit 7. Xia Mufan and Feng Xiaoyu have a good relationship. Seeing that she really wants an answer, Xia Mufan thought for a moment and replied, "I don't know either. When I looked up, I saw him."
Feng Xiaoyu covered her mouth and laughed secretly: "It seems that Forensic Doctor Gu is pursuing her in a subtle and silent way. It doesn't matter if you don't understand. Anyway, he is always by your side, so he won't miss you."
Xia Mufan was silent for a moment and nodded.
I don’t know when it started, but Gu Shaoqi has slowly infiltrated every aspect of her life. He has a good relationship with his mother, who helped him get an apartment. He also maintains good interactions with Coal Ash and Ice Cream. Whenever it comes to anything related to the Serious Crime Unit 7, he is always the first one to appear in front of her.
Thinking of this, Xia Mufan's eyes moved, he glanced at Gu Shaoqi, and smiled gently with his lips pursed.
Xia Mufan's eyes were already full of spirit, and the corners of his eyes were slightly raised. This slight glance, with eyes full of life, made Gu Shaoqi stare at him in a daze for a moment, unable to utter a word.
The wedding host on the stage was wishing the bride and groom a happy wedding, and a bunch of people were cheering in the audience, but all the excitement was due to others. For Gu Shaoqi, as long as he can be with Xia Mufan, it will be paradise on earth.
Seeing that Forensic Doctor Gu had changed from his usual cold and aloof demeanor to a silly look, everyone in the Criminal Investigation Team burst into laughter.
In fact, everyone had noticed forensic doctor Gu's feelings for Xia Mufan a long time ago, but Xia Mufan looked like a dullard, so no one could say much. Now Forensic Doctor Gu's feelings have finally come true, and everyone is happy for him.
It was the bride and groom's turn to toast, and the hotel was once again bustling with activity.
Gong Weiguo and Qiao Zhimin were wearing bright red wedding dresses. The man was tall and handsome, and the woman was petite and delicate. They looked like a perfect match standing together.
Gong Weiguo raised his glass towards Ye Rong and Feng Xiaoyu, and said to his wife, "I went on this business trip just to save this guy. If Feng Xiaoyu hadn't been alert and gone a day later, this guy would have died in that cave a long time ago."
Qiao Zhimin smiled sweetly and raised her glass to Ye Rong: "Then you must treat your girlfriend well in the future. She is your lifesaver."
Ye Rong raised his glass and drank it all, drawing cheers from the people around him.
Gu Shaoqi quietly approached Xia Mufan and whispered softly: "You are also my benefactor."
Xia Mufan was annoyed by his cheesy words: "Why are we talking about this between us?"
Although it was just a simple sentence, it made Gu Shaoqi feel warm and comfortable. He poured a cup of tea into Xia Mufan's cup and smiled: "Well, with you, I am not alone anymore."
Xia Mufan's brain was naturally lacking that string of tenderness and sweetness, and he laughed: "You have me, and I have my mother, coal ash, and ice cream behind me. It's not easy to be lonely."
Xia Mufan's laughter was crisp, and Gu Shaoqi's mood soared with it, and the corners of his mouth curled up high: "Remember the grass tortoise Xiao Mo? It and its new wife have always wanted to meet you."
Hearing him say this, Xia Mufan smiled even more happily: "Oh, then we have two more pets. It will be even harder for us to be lonely."
Hearing the word "we", Gu Shaoqi's heart seemed to be soaked in hot spring water, warm and swaying: "Yes, from now on, the two of us will be together and we will never be alone."
If Gu Shaoqi had said this to someone else, Xia Mufan would have rolled his eyes at him for sure, but for some reason, when these words came out of Gu Shaoqi's mouth, there was an indescribable lingering feeling in them, which made Xia Mufan feel itchy in her heart and she wanted to kiss him on the face.
There was a gleam in Xia Mufan's eyes, which made Gu Shaoqi's chest feel hot. Gu Shaoqi's heart beat faster. He turned around, picked up the teacup on the table, and took a big sip of tea. However, he ate too quickly and choked on the tea, starting to cough violently.
Xia Mufan glanced at him and said, "What's wrong? You choked on a sip of tea like this."
Gu Shaoqi waved his hands repeatedly, finally recovering: "I'm fine, I just drank too fast. You're hungry, eat quickly."
The dishes on the banquet were served one by one.
This time, Gong Weiguo really spent a lot of money to host a banquet, with ten dishes and a soup, including chicken, duck, fish and meat.
Xia Mufan didn't say anything polite. She picked up the chopsticks and started eating. She had a good appetite to begin with, and seeing so many delicious foods, she naturally didn't hide her appetite. Seeing her eating big chunks of meat and vegetables, Gu Shaoqi felt happy and paid close attention to her taste.
Xia Mufan likes to eat meat and is not very interested in fish.
Xia Mufan likes spicy food, so she takes very few dishes with light flavors.
Xia Mufan likes to eat snacks. He doesn’t like to eat tomatoes with the skin on. He doesn’t like to eat bitter melon, but he does like the flesh inside.
…
I don’t know why, but even if he didn’t eat a single bite, Gu Shaoqi felt extremely happy.
Having liked her for so long, Gu Shaoqi was very satisfied and finally got a response today.
The most noisy people at the banquet were those from the Criminal Investigation Brigade. After eating half full, they started toasting everywhere. Sun Xianbing and Yu Jing were dragged by Gong Weiguo to Qiao Zhimin's colleague, who introduced them to young girls in a serious manner, which made Sun Xianbing and Yu Jing blush.
Another group of people started to ask Ye Rong and Feng Xiaoyu when they would host a banquet. Feng Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Maybe in December. You guys wait for my post."
The leader of the logistics department over there was drinking happily, and patted his chest to guarantee: "Don't worry, the bureau is building new houses. Those who are getting married this year should apply quickly, there are houses for everyone!"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was another round of cheers in the hotel. The young people present became excited, clapping their hands on the table and shouting, wishing they could get out of being single right away.
In the midst of the excitement, Gu Shaoqi said to Xia Mufan: "A few days ago, I received a call from my senior sister Yang Wenjing. She was deeply impressed by you."
Xia Mufan immediately perked up when he heard this: "Are you talking about Yang Wenjing, the forensic doctor from the Guangdong Provincial Department? I'm also very impressed by her. Every time she participated in a murder case, she would preserve the DNA sample of the deceased. It was precisely because of this good habit that the hair follicles of the four members of the Huang Yongkang family massacre were preserved to this day, allowing us to find a breakthrough in Boss Mo's murder."
Gu Shaoqi knew that Xia Mufan liked the job of criminal police and he would be beaming with joy whenever he talked about cases. He smiled and said, "Yes, Senior Sister Yang is very professional."
Xia Mufan asked curiously, "Girls rarely become forensic pathologists. Why did Yang Wenjing make such a choice?"
Gu Shaoqi's voice became a little deeper: "Her father is missing, and his life or death is still unknown."
