Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife

Chapter 570: We’re Still Enemies

“Okay then. I’ve indeed troubled you too much these days. Since you don’t like it, I’ll pack up and leave tomorrow morning,” said Feng Shanshan.

“It’s up to you.” Tang Yan left the table.

Feng Shanshan was dumbfounded. “You can just finish the food. Or did you think I put poison in it?”

Tang Yan thought for a while and sat back down.

Feng Shanshan knew he felt awkward so she did not disturb him anymore. His cold sweat of awkwardness was enough to drown her already.

Actually, Feng Shanshan had mentally prepared herself for that. Tang Yan was not a sympathetic person. It would actually have been weird if he had agreed to it. He was not someone who liked to trouble other people, so he would also not want others to trouble him.

It’s just that Feng Shanshan had noticed that the house beside Tang Yan’s had been left empty for quite some time. If she could buy it and become Tang Yan’s neighbor, she would not be worried about her safety anymore, and she would not cause him trouble nor disturb him.

Thinking of this, Feng Shanshan curled up on the sofa and slept peacefully.

Also, she wanted to buy a similar sofa, because it felt very comfortable.

Tang Yan ate quietly and did not pay attention to Feng Shanshan. When he finished cleaning up and was walking to his study, he saw that she had fallen asleep on the sofa.

Previously, he would not feel sorry for rejecting a person, because he felt that offending someone was not a big deal as he did not need anything from anyone. But he didn’t know why, when he rejected Feng Shanshan, he felt a bit guilty.

He had never felt this before.

As a man, when Feng Shanshan was betrayed by her friend and became homeless, he should help her out. However, he did not want to become entangled with anyone, especially in a personal relationship. He did not want to get distracted because of another person.

But surprisingly, Feng Shanshan did not act pitifully and beg him. On the very next day, she actually packed her things and left his house.

This made Tang Yan feel uneasy when he went out. He was actually thinking about where she could go.

Was that something he should ask?

Thinking of this, he felt even irritated. So, he rode his motorbike and left his house.

The interrogation of Xie Lin did not go smoothly. He was even more cunning than Xie Yingsheng. He insisted that he was abroad at the time Shen Qing died, so it was impossible for him to kill someone in the country. Now that the police had not found enough evidence, they could only let Xie Lin go.

What really happened between Shen Qing and Xie Lin? What secrets did they have? Why were there no clues at all in Shen Qing’s villa?

Tang Yan was rather annoyed because of this, so he had no time to bother about Feng Shanshan’s matter. Using work as an excuse, he totally forgot about this.

What about Feng Shanshan? She didn’t seem to worry about where she would stay at all.

At campus, Mu Qiqi saw Feng Shanshan coming to class, so she asked, “Where have you been these two days?”

“Can’t you smell it? You know but still you ask.” Feng Shanshan looked at Mu Qiqi helplessly. “Officer Tang might be a bachelor his whole life. He really makes me speechless.”

“Did you strip naked to seduce him?”

Feng Shanshan glared at Mu Qiqi. “Although I am an open-minded person, I don’t like to mess around. I simply suggested he rent me a room in exchange for me cooking and doing the chores for him. But still, he rejected without hesitation! Zero hesitation!”

Mu Qiqi couldn’t help laughing. “He is a single-minded person. What can you do about that? What’s your plan now?”

“Thanks to Grandpa Sheng, I have enough money to buy the house next to Tang Yan’s. This way, I won’t have to worry about my safety.”

Mu Qiqi stretched her hand out and gave a thumbs up. “Cool.”

“This is the sad life of a single woman. Right, I heard that after Xie Lin was brought to the police station, but he did not admit to anything. The police have lost their direction again in the investigation.”

The only hope we have is to decipher whatever is and was in Shen Qing’s computer. I wonder what information was in the computer and if we can recover it.” Mu Qiqi sighed. “It’s such a big case. Everyone knows he is the murderer yet we can’t do anything to him. I always thought that such things only happened in dramas.”

“Just wait for the news.” Feng Shanshan took the notes and smiled. “Did you know? I always want to be your enemy. But it’s hard for me to do that when you do this.”

“We’re still enemies.”

They were chatting happily and suddenly, someone sent Mu Qiqi a parcel.

Mu Qiqi opened it and saw a bloody fake human palm. Her classmates were so shocked that they ran away. However, Feng Shanshan and Mu Qiqi looked calm. They looked into each other’s eyes and smiled.

“There’s someone who actually dares to threaten you? Looks like he wants to learn about how Chief Sheng protects his family.”

But Mu Qiqi was not in the mood for joking. “Doesn’t this show that that person is guilty?”

“Are you going to the forensics laboratory with me tonight?”

Mu Qiqi shook her head and said, “You go alone. I’ve some family matters to take care of.”

She did not forget that she had to go to the hospital with Sheng Xiao tonight to listen to the outcome of the discussion with the doctors. Although that old man had humiliated her before, she was not angry with him anymore since he was already so ill and would not live long.

…

When the doctor asked him to stay in the hospital, Grandpa Sheng had actually already guessed that the reason for his fainting was not that simple.

So, while Hu Ran and Gu Ziling were not there, Grandpa Sheng went to his doctor’s office alone. “Doctor, now that there is nobody else, can you tell me honestly that I don’t have much time left?”

The doctor looked into Grandpa Sheng’s eyes and knew that he understood what was going on. So he said, “There’s indeed a small problem, but it is still not hopeless.”

“Now that you have said it, I will understand. Just leave it to God. I have never feared anything in my life.”

“Old sir, please be optimistic. I’ve met the specialists today and I am entrusted by your grandson to come up with a treatment plan today. I would have already been on my way to meet him had you not come by.”

“Which grandson?”

“Who else is there besides the one who has a problem with you? Eighth Young Master, Sheng Xiao.”

After hearing the name, Grandpa Sheng was silent for a moment. He then asked with uncertainty, “Doesn’t he wish for my death?”

“Why do you think so? That young couple told me seriously to let you live. As commoners, we cannot understand the grudge of the rich. However, the child who always goes against you might not be the one who wants you to suffer. Human heart is made of flesh. If you don’t believe me, you can come to the meeting room and see for yourself.”
