34: Living together with Li Qingyan

“There’s no point in revealing the culprit of the Mu Yurous Case!”

Gao Ze shook his head, not revealing the culprit Zheng Yiren. Without evidence, there was no way to deal with Zheng Yiren, and it could easily cause problems.

However, he already had a definite plan for capturing Zheng Yiren.

“Captain Shen, I hope you reopen the Mu Yurous Case!”

Shen Gang said firmly, “Of course, even if you don’t say it, I won’t give up investigating the true culprit of the Mu Yurous Case!”

Gao Ze shook his head and said, “Captain Shen, what I mean is, when you reopen the Mu Yu Rou’s case, you’d best make a big fuss, so that Jinghai District and the Municipal Bureau all know you’re investigating this case!”

“Why is that?”

“This is part of my setup for the true culprit!”

Gao Ze didn't hide anything, but he also didn't reveal his entire plan.

Regarding the culprit Zheng Yiren, he had not yet obtained clues and evidence from the case files, but this did not mean that he could not get Zheng Yiren's evidence.

Gao Ze had already thought of a strategy to 'beat the grass to startle the snake' to draw Zheng Yiren out and make him fall into the trap.

“Okay, I will try my best to follow your request.”

Shen Gang nodded, his expression complex, but he still trusted Gao Ze.

Since Gao Ze could sense problems with the Mu Yurous Case beforehand, there must be a reason for him to do this.

“Also, hand over all the previous case files of the Flower Season Girls Murderer for me to examine.”

“Alright!”

Shen Gang agreed and followed Gao Ze's instructions.

After getting the other Flower Season Girls Murderer case files, Gao Ze continued to read them carefully.

And as time passed little by little.

His plan for Zheng Yiren became clearer in his mind.

“Brother Gao, I’ve done as you said, and I’ve high-profilely publicized to the Municipal Bureau and Jinghai District’s Criminal Investigation Brigade that you and I are reopening the investigation into the Mu Yurous Case.

But are you still staying at the Criminal Police Center?”

Shen Gang glanced at the dark night outside the window and advised, “Even if you’re investigating a case, you still need to pay attention to rest. Most of us at the Criminal Police Center have already gone off duty.”

“Okay, I’ll take these case files home to read!”

Gao Ze looked at the moonlight shining through the window and did not insist on staying at the Criminal Police Center. He had done too many things today and wanted to see the follow-up results in the news reports.

Moreover, the system intelligence would refresh today.

Maybe it will refresh important intelligence about the Mu Yu Rou case, and it's better to stay at home.

“Then I’ll drive you!”

With someone to give him a ride and save on taxi fare, Gao Ze naturally agreed and followed Shen Gang out of the Shanghai Public Security Bureau.

But at that moment, he saw a familiar figure at the entrance of the Public Security Bureau.

Li Qingyan!

“Husband, why are you getting off work so late?”

Li Qingyan stood in front of her BMW 5 Series. The moment she saw Gao Ze, her slightly annoyed face broke into a lovely and charming smile, and she rushed into Gao Ze’s arms as if flying.

What's going on, husband?

Captain Shen's eyes widened, more shocked than when he faced Gao Ze solving multiple cases in a row.

And Gao Ze's partner was too beautiful.

Smooth and delicate skin, wrists like congealed snow, a face that could be happy or annoyed, and when she looked up, she was pure and lovely yet radiant, even more beautiful than a female celebrity.

What luck did Gao Ze have!

Captain Shen took a breath, even he felt a little jealous.

“Husband, is this uncle your colleague?”

Li Qingyan held Gao Ze's arm, tilted her head, and smiled sweetly at Captain Shen, “Hello, Uncle!”

Am I that old?

It was difficult for Captain Shen to feel resistance or even anger. He gazed at that stunning smile, and even the last trace of displeasure in his heart disappeared. He grinned and said, “Hello, hello, I’m Shen Gang, Brother Gao’ friend. Are you his girlfriend?”

“Husband” might be an intimate term between male and female lovers. Captain Shen thought Gao Ze and the girl in front of him were too young to be married.

“Of course not, I am my husband Gao Ze’s wife!”

Captain Shen immediately looked at Gao Ze: “…”

“Yes, I’m already married. Qing Yan is my wife!”

Even though he didn’t know why Li Qingyan was waiting for him at the Shanghai Public Security Bureau, they were husband and wife, and Gao Ze wouldn’t undermine her.

You brat, you hide things too well!

If looks could speak, Captain Shen would have a lot to complain about to Gao Ze right now.

“Brother Gao, you are truly fortunate to have such a wife.

Since your wife is here to pick you up, I won’t bother you any longer.”

Captain Shen tactfully left, and a moment later, only Gao Ze and Li Qingyan remained at the entrance of the Public Security Bureau, their two shadows intertwining under the streetlights.

“Why did you suddenly come here?”

He scrutinized Li Qingyan, who was so close. Under her long, upturned eyelashes were lively, deer-like eyes, and her moist, small mouth was like a dew-kissed cherry, mysterious and alluring, making one want to cup her chin.

“Of course, I missed you, husband, and I also wanted to see what you look like when you’re working.”

With no one else around, Li Qingyan's hands, which had been holding Gao Ze's arm, boldly wrapped around his neck, her milk-scented skin pressing tightly against Gao Ze's chest.

“And as your wife, I think I should fulfill a wife’s duty!”

“What duty?” Gao Ze asked curiously.

“Of course, cohabitation!”

Li Qingyan's lips curved into a mysterious smile, her eyes filled with temptation.

“You’re really bold,”

Gao Ze was caught off guard and asked with a frown, “Why are you doing this? I don’t understand. Aren’t we in a marriage of convenience?”

“Of course it’s a marriage of convenience, but even so, I want you to fall in love with me.”

Li Qingyan smiled, “Because my mom said your ability and temperament are stronger than I imagined, and I can’t control you. So I was thinking, if I make you fall in love with me, will I be able to gain the upper hand?”

Gao Ze: “…”

“Husband, why aren’t you speaking?”

Li Qingyan’s finger traced circles on Gao Ze’s chest.

“When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Those who play with fire will be burned. Don’t you understand this principle?”

Gao Ze felt that another side of Li Qingyan’s personality was quietly revealing itself at this moment.

Strong, self-centered, unlike her usual gentle and lovely demeanor.

“I don’t believe it. I just want to make you fall in love with me, so what?”

Li Qingyan pouted, raised her eyes, and gazed, her coquettish tone making one’s bones melt, her eyes stubborn yet wronged.
