Chapter 310: Chapter 222: Detective Yang… He Died in the Line of Duty

Jin Qiu covered her mouth, pointing at him, and it took her a while before she managed to say, “I…I can accuse you of sexual harassment!”

Yang Zijing didn’t take it seriously, acting as though he heard nothing, “Alright, let’s continue our discussion, the theme of the propaganda, just come up with anything, give me a video for formality’s sake.”

“Then please find someone else for the job! A novice like me isn’t up for it.”

“I said you can do it, you can do it! Hand it over next week, and I’ll treat you to a meal.”

Jin Qiu still tried to decline: “Thanks, but no thanks! If I said I won’t take it, I won’t take it!”

“If you don’t take it, I’ll cry you a river!”

Jin Qiu: “…” That was much worse than using profanity, wasn’t it!

Yang Zijing gave her a threatening glance, then passed the menu on the table over to her, just about to ask her to order food when his cell phone started to ring.

He picked up the call with a frown, simply acknowledged with an “Alright,” then he grabbed his car keys and the coat next to him, saying, “Order whatever you like, it’s on me. I have something urgent to deal with now, don’t forget about the promotional video, if you don’t deliver it next week, I’m a man of my word!”

Jin Qiu swallowed nervously, rolling her eyes at him, more than eager for him to leave quickly.

Although that previous remark sounded like a joke, Jin Qiu felt that with someone like him, he might possibly make a move on her…

He walked outside, came to her seat, and knocked on the window. When she looked over, he made a flying kiss gesture with two fingers.

Jin Qiu responded with a vomiting gesture, and watched as he jogged to his car and drove away.

Suddenly she remembered he was a cop, ah, he hadn’t even eaten before he left in a hurry after receiving a call, was it some kind of order?

Staring in the direction he left in a daze for a while, Jin Qiu finally retracted her gaze, ordered a set meal, and filled her stomach.

Upon returning home, Jin Qiu diligently began planning the promotional video, working until two o’clock in the morning. Taking out her phone, she felt somewhat unaccustomed to not seeing any new messages.

Scrolling up, it was all messages sent by him. Every night, without fail, he would say goodnight to her, but tonight it was eerily quiet.

Yawning and scratching her head, she flopped onto the bed. Unknowingly, she ended up reading all the messages he had sent, heart fluttering as she read, even though she considered herself a veteran in the game of love, why was she feeling shy like an innocent young girl now?

Shaking her head, she turned off the messaging interface, and after browsing Weibo for a while, she saw a photo of Ziyan.

In the photo, she looked much more beautiful than before, her face rosy, holding her adorable daughter, with Su Yuecheng standing right behind her. In a trance, she thought they looked just like a family.

Since she was bored, she asked casually: What’s the baby’s name?

The reply came quickly: The nickname is Dudu, haven’t thought of the formal name yet. It’s late night over there, isn’t it? Why haven’t you slept yet?

Jin Qiu checked the time, indeed feeling sleepy, so she just chatted briefly before preparing to rest. But unintentionally, she saw the Weibo trending topic: #Mai City Police and Criminal Pursuit#

Upon seeing it, Jin Qiu immediately thought of Yang Zijing, and couldn’t help but click on it.

Thousands of reports exploded onto the screen.

This police and criminal pursuit was the largest in fifty years. The suspects were armed with firearms and ammunition, and they were many in number and ruthless; they’re currently active in the northern area of the city. The police force has dispatched a thousand special officers. So far, they have killed two suspects and successfully apprehended a key leader and four accomplices. Three officers are wounded, with one still in life-threatening condition. Further progress will be reported.

Jin Qiu’s heart started racing. Mai City… one person in life-threatening condition… these two clues kept recurring in her mind, and she selfishly wished that the person wouldn’t be in danger.

She immediately searched for more related Weibo posts, hoping to get more information, eager to find out if he, who hadn’t sent her a goodnight message tonight, was still okay…

Frantically scrolling through, Jin Qiu suddenly stopped her fingers, her attention no longer on the screen. Was she… worried about him?

Yes, she couldn’t lie to herself even if she could deceive others, her desire for sleep had disappeared with worry, she just kept checking Weibo, hoping that the message tone would ring, hoping to see those three words “old pervert” again…

As dawn began to break, her phone showed a low battery warning. Jin Qiu rubbed her eyes, tossed her phone aside carelessly, and closed her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.

The data kept updating, the number of suspects caught was increasing, and so were the casualties of the police. There has been one officer killed in action, and the information has been released.
