Chapter 244 Is Your Friend a Man or a Woman?
Fang Li didn't pay attention and was shocked.
When she looked up in surprise, she was met with a tough and serious face.
"you......."
"Why, you don't recognize me?"
"Third brother!"
Fang Li never expected to meet her cousin here.
Seeing that the seriousness on Xu Chengchuan's face disappeared, he opened his arms towards him with a smile on his lips.
Fang Li's eyes became hot and she strode into his arms.
She didn't cry when she was chased by Yan Haoyu's mother, and she didn't cry when she saw a living person turned into a fireball. At this moment, feeling the unique warmth that belongs to her loved ones, Fang Li couldn't help but sniff.
"Are you scared now?"
"......." Fang Li buried her head in his chest and said nothing.
Feeling the T-shirt on his chest getting wet little by little, Xu Chengchuan sighed helplessly and raised his hand to gently pat the back of Fang Li's head.
"Cry, I allow you to cry secretly for a minute."
The sniffling sound suddenly turned into a low whimper.
The next moment, Xu Chengchuan said again: "But, in one minute you must explain to me exactly what happened."
The sobbing in my arms stopped.
Fang Li raised her head slightly, looking at the large wet spot on her gray T-shirt, her eyes moving rapidly.
"Are you done crying?"
“.......”
Xu Chengchuan let her go and said, "Start now after you've finished crying."
Looking at her cousin who had distanced herself from him again, with his arms folded across his chest and a serious expression on his face, Fang Li's face was still stiff.
After being silent for several seconds, he tried to put on a little smile, "Actually..."
"Think it over first. Do you know what I do? If you confess, I'll give you leniency. If you lie, I'll punish you severely."
Fang Li's heart couldn't help but tighten.
The fingers hanging on her lower abdomen kept twisting, and after thinking for a long time, she took a deep breath and raised her eyes and said, "It was an accident, actually. I just happened to go to help a friend pick up his niece, and I didn't expect to encounter something like this."
"A friend's niece?"
"Yes, she was very scared and is still in the hospital."
Meeting her sincere eyes, Xu Chengchuan raised his eyebrows coldly, "What friend?"
Fang Li: “…….Ah?”
"What kind of friend would bother you to pick up a child? A boyfriend? A girlfriend? The child is already that old. How old is your friend?"
Faced with Xu Chengchuan's series of questions, Fang Li moved her mouth but didn't say a word.
Xu Chengchuan stared at her with a knowing look on his face and said, "I went home a while ago, and my grandfather told me that you and your ex-boyfriend had broken up, and that you're now starting a business in Beijing. I didn't expect that your business would also include helping people pick up their children?"
Fang Li frowned. "What nonsense are you talking about? It really just happened. My friend happened to have something to do these two days, so I..."
"So, you still haven't told me whether your friend is a man or a woman, and how old are you this year?"
"I..." Fang Li choked.
The two siblings faced each other, staring at each other with wide eyes.
After a while, seeing Xu Chengchuan's sharp eyes and his refusal to give in, Fang Li gritted her teeth and raised her chin, "Why should I tell you, Grandpa doesn't care about me!"
"Hey, I'm...are you going to tell me?!" Xu Chengchuan pretended to be fierce.
Fang Li: "Don't say."
"You're not going to tell me, are you?" Xu Chengchuan looked around but couldn't find any suitable tools. He rolled up his sleeves and raised his hand towards Fang Li. "If you don't tell me, I'll beat you up, believe it or not!"
"You dare!"
"Provoke me? Okay, let's see if I dare!"
Seeing that Xu Chengchuan really swung his hand down, Fang Li seized the opportunity and turned around and ran.
“Dare to run!”
"If you dare to hit me, I'll tell grandpa right now!"
Fang Li took out her cell phone while running and pretended to make a call.
Xu Chengchuan chased after him slowly, "Alright, if you can, go ahead and fight me. I want to see how you're going to explain what happened today to Grandpa later!"
"Did you tell grandpa what happened today?!" Fang Li suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at Xu Chengchuan behind her with a serious face.
Xu Chengchuan's expression froze, then he raised his eyebrows, "Are you scared now?"
Fang Li's face turned serious, and she came over with gritted teeth, "Who told you to tell Grandpa! He's so old, and you're making him worry for no reason. Is this how you treat your grandson?!"
"Now that they know your family will be worried if something happens to you, why were you so stubborn just now?"
"I..." Fang Li was furious and angry, "Did you tell Grandpa about this?"
Xu Chengchuan looked down at her, her face full of anxiety, and curled his lips, "No."
Fang Li immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
His face turned cold again and he said, "However, you know how serious this matter is. If you want me to not tell Grandpa, you can, but you must tell me everything in detail. Otherwise, I can't control you and Grandpa will have to make the decision!"
"As long as you don't tell grandpa, everything else is fine."
Xu Chengchuan's expression softened slightly, and Fang Li took the opportunity to put on a flattering expression. She leaned over and asked, "You haven't told me why you're here yet? I heard from my brother that you were going to Kuncheng to carry out some secret mission?"
"I'll naturally come back when the mission is completed."
"Shouldn't you stay in Haicheng when you come back? Why did you come to the capital?"
"Are you sure I can still do my job well if I stay in Haicheng? Given the old man's domineering personality, if I occasionally come back with injuries, will he still let me continue working?"
Fang Li's eyes flashed cunningly, "So you came to the capital without telling grandpa?"
"I..." Xu Chengchuan paused, then realized, "Okay, you cunning guy, you're actually trying to trick me!"
Fang Li immediately stepped away, folding her arms and looking smug: "Third brother, now we're even. You'd better keep my affairs a secret, otherwise I will tell Grandpa about your visit to the capital!"
"Xu Fangli, are you threatening me?"
"yes."
".......Ha!" Xu Chengchuan was so angry that he laughed.
This was the scene Deng Xiulin saw when he came out of the interrogation room.
Fang Li and a man were face to face, both of them looking at each other and smiling softly.
He frowned slightly, thought of his good brothers who were rushing back, and walked towards the two of them.
"Miss Xu."
"Lawyer Deng, are you all right?"
Deng Xiulin nodded and said, "Just wait for Yang Miao to take another statement."
Speaking of Yang Miao, Fang Li subconsciously worried: "Although Yang Miao has woken up, his emotions are still not very stable. I am afraid of taking his statement now..."
Deng Xiulin smiled and said, "Don't worry. I've already told the police. Everything depends on Yang Miao's recovery. We can wait until she's fine."
"That's perfect." Fang Li breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Deng Xiulin with some gratitude. "Thank you for troubling me today. You're so busy, but you're still taking the trouble to come here."
Deng Xiulin: "Miss Xu, that's really awkward."
Fang Li smiled, "That's right. I won't say any more polite words. How about I treat you to a meal when I have time?"
"OK."
I didn't expect Deng Xiulin to agree so immediately.
Fang Li thought that given his personality he would refuse.
However, she said that inviting someone to dinner was not something she could just do casually, and since she had asked, she had to keep her word.
Fang Li smiled lightly, "How about you set the time and I choose the restaurant?"
Deng Xiulin glanced vaguely at Xu Chengchuan beside Fang Li and said, "Since that's the case, why not do it now?"
"Ah? Now?"
