Chapter 835: Chapter 835: Forehead Turning Dark Again

When Zhao Rubing got close to Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu caught a faint fragrance in the air. However, he couldn’t shake the feeling that Zhao Rubing was planning something against him.

"What do you want to eat?"

"I want to eat at a buffet!"

Zhao Rubing said.

After drinking last night, she felt especially hungry now.

"Alright, let’s go then!"

"Not inviting my sister?"

"Let her rest for now."

After leaving the Norwegian Forest Bar, Zhao Rubing got into Ye Qiu’s car, and he started driving toward the seafood buffet restaurant that Zhao Rubing had mentioned.

The seafood buffet was located by the Qinhuai River, a newly opened establishment with a price of 688 yuan per person, making it a rather upscale buffet option.

Upon arriving at the parking lot below the restaurant, Ye Qiu and Zhao Rubing stepped out of the car and took the elevator directly to the top floor.

When they reached the top floor, they realized it was a high-end revolving buffet. Perhaps due to the expensive price tag, there weren’t many patrons enjoying the seafood buffet.

Ye Qiu and Zhao Rubing entered, bought two meal tickets, and were guided by a waitress to a couple’s booth. Ye Qiu went to wash his hands, while Zhao Rubing hurriedly went to grab her favorite dishes.

When Ye Qiu returned and sat down, he saw that Zhao Rubing had already collected a variety of delicious food on her plate.

"So much food, and my sister isn’t even here."

"After your sister achieves a major victory, I’ll treat her here too."

Ye Qiu said.

Zhao Rubing pouted and then began eating with gusto.

The buffet lasted two hours; Zhao Rubing spent an hour and a half eating and was thoroughly full by then.

Ye Qiu had finished earlier and was now just waiting for Zhao Rubing to wrap up.

Once both had finished eating, they washed their hands, took the elevator downstairs, and got back into the car. Ye Qiu drove Zhao Rubing back to the Norwegian Forest Bar.

At the moment, Zhao Ruxue was still asleep, so Ye Qiu said, "When your sister wakes up, give her this photo and tell her it’s from the surveillance footage, showing the suspect. I’ll head back for military training now and come find her tonight."

Ye Qiu left the Norwegian Forest Bar and drove back to Jin University. It was just past two in the afternoon.

The classmates were still practicing military boxing. Ye Qiu changed into his uniform, returned to the training grounds, and joined the others in practicing military boxing.

By six in the evening, when Wu Shuang declared dismissal, Ye Qiu and Luo Yang walked back to the dormitory. Once there, Ye Qiu changed out of his uniform and into casual clothes, planning to return to Peach Blossom Spring Villa to take a shower.

"You guys go grab dinner yourselves. I have something to handle, so I’ll head out first."

Ye Qiu headed towards his car, got in, and drove back to the Peach Blossom Source Villa Community.

As his car drove off, Leng Xue, who had been practicing military boxing like the other female students over the past few days, didn’t seem any different on the surface.

However, the day she witnessed Ye Qiu disciplining Instructor Zhang left her utterly shocked. She realized that Ye Qiu was completely different from what her files had described.

If she were to complete her mission, Leng Xue knew it would be exceptionally difficult.

The only way forward was to get closer to Ye Qiu, which might give her a chance to act.

But from the first day, she found that getting close to Ye Qiu—even using her beauty—seemed to have no effect on him.

This was a huge blow for Leng Xue, who was always confident and had a perfect success rate for her missions. This time, she feared failure!

Watching Ye Qiu drive away, Leng Xue finally averted her gaze. To play her role for this mission, she was pretending to be a girl, which meant returning to the girls’ dormitory to take a shower.

However, unlike the other girls who might shower together in groups of two or three without a care, Leng Xue always showered alone. Only after finishing would she let others in, which made her seem a bit intimidating. Her dormmates were slightly afraid of her.

...

After returning to Peach Blossom Source Villa Community, Ye Qiu took a shower and learned that Zhao Ruxue had already gone back to the City Police Bureau. Ye Qiu got into his car and drove towards the police bureau.

Reaching the police bureau’s parking lot, he entered Zhao Ruxue’s office.

When she had woken up that morning, Ye Qiu had already returned to Jin University. However, the suspect he identified from the surveillance footage greatly aided her investigation.

She had rushed back to the City Police Bureau, instructing staff to dig up information on the suspect.

During the investigation, they discovered that the suspect had no record in the national household registration database. This only made him all the more suspicious.

In Zhao Ruxue’s eyes, the two recent major jewelry heists were likely linked to this suspect.

But since no detailed information could be found, they could only spread the photo through appropriate channels and hope the suspect would emerge soon, allowing them to bring him down in one strike.

Of course, it wasn’t certain yet whether this individual was the main suspect or mastermind behind the jewelry heists, but he had to be identified first.

Additionally, Zhao Ruxue still planned to return to Zhou Dabao’s jewelry store to ask the sales assistants if they had any record of the buyer’s details.

When Ye Qiu arrived, Zhao Ruxue happened to finish up and decided to go out with him.

As they left, Zhao Ruxue got into Ye Qiu’s car, and he asked, "Did you eat anything after waking up?"

"I had Rubing get me a boxed meal. I’m not hungry now."

Zhao Ruxue replied.

Right now, solving the case was her top priority; food was the last thing on her mind.

"Let’s head to the first store and ask the saleswomen if they remember the man who came in to buy the jewelry that day."

As Ye Qiu drove toward the jewelry store, he suddenly noticed that Zhao Ruxue’s complexion didn’t look right—especially her forehead.

Her forehead was noticeably darkened.

A darkened forehead often indicated the potential for imminent calamity or danger.

If it were just fatigue from lack of sleep, there’d be no issue. But the darkened forehead hinted that Zhao Ruxue might encounter something serious soon.

Ye Qiu had observed this phenomenon in people before, and it had always proven accurate.

Not once had his observation failed.

"Why are you staring at me? Focus on the road."

Zhao Ruxue asked.

"Ruxue, there’s a shadow over your forehead. Take a look in the mirror yourself."

Unlike other women who carried purses with mirrors inside, Zhao Ruxue didn’t have one. Hearing Ye Qiu’s comment, she instead used her phone camera to check her face—but the phone wasn’t able to capture it well.

When Ye Qiu arrived at the first jewelry store, Zhao Ruxue seemed a bit unsettled, possibly due to what Ye Qiu had told her earlier.

Upon entering the store, the doors and display cases, damaged earlier, had already been repaired. The shop was set to reopen for business tomorrow.
