I became the police station's darling after I could understand what the furry creature was sayi

"Yes, it really likes Second Brother."

It might be different from what Nan Sinian understands as liking, after all, who would have thought that such a small gecko's brain would contain such colorful things?

While the two were talking, Little Tiger's mother rolled the tiger's paws in Nan Sinian's palm several times.

Nan Si Nian let it be.

The brother and sister chatted like this, and for dinner they ate braised lion head goose that Nan Sinian had airlifted from Guangcheng, which finally made up for Nan Shu's disappointment at not being able to eat lobster.

Life is peaceful here.

the other side.

When Wei Jingxing got home early from get off work, he saw Ji Yan standing absentmindedly by the sink, wearing an apron.

It became clear immediately.

"Has Xiaoshu eaten?"

Wei Jingxing took off his coat and hung it on the rack. Jin Gang stepped forward and nuzzled his head against him.

Ji Yan gave a frustrated "hmm" and put down the scissors. "Brother Jingxing, I think Xiaoshu is avoiding me."

This is the real reason why Ji Yan is unhappy.

It must be said that, despite Ji Yan's outgoing personality, he is extremely perceptive when it comes to capturing emotions.

Upon hearing this, Wei Jingxing paused in stroking Jin Gang's head, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.

As presidents of the same group, managing their own companies, Wei Jingxing and Nan Yannian have been extremely busy lately.

So when he heard Nan Shu say she was busy, Wei Jingxing was actually quite relieved, because even if he couldn't be attentive to her, everyone else could be.

Very fair.

But now it seems that during the time Xiao Shu was busy, something might have happened that he didn't know about, making Xiao Shu realize something...

He knew Wei Yue's itinerary very well. After thinking it over, a pair of emotionless fox eyes appeared before him.

Kui Jingxing shared his guess with Ji Yan.

Ji Yan's brows furrowed instantly, her earring gleamed, and a sense of panic and helplessness surfaced in her heart.

Does the senior know that she likes him?
If she rejected him today, does that mean he has no chance?

As Kui Jingxing waited for Ji Yan's response, he saw the boy's eyes slowly redden, as if he had thought of something.

Kui Jingxing: ...

"If you want to cry, go cry to Xiao Shu."

What's the point of crying in front of him?

"I didn't cry!"

Ji Yan spoke in a muffled voice, then looked up and glared at Wei Jingxing like a little wolf cub.

Wei Jingxing: "If you go knock on Xiaoshu's door looking like that, she might actually fall for it."

Wei Yue, that pretty boy, is the best at this, and Xiao Shu really likes it.

Kui Jingxing practiced in private, but then gave up.

"real?!"

Ji Yan's eyes lit up.

He had an expression that suggested he was eager to try.

"..." Wei Jingxing's lips twitched. "But not today, Nan Sinian is back."

Ji Yan pouted.

"Oh…"

Wei Jingxing pinched the bridge of his nose, increasingly regretting his decision to join the alliance; it was a case of one plus one being less than one.

"Ji Yan, I think you could learn a thing or two from Wei Yue."

Kui Jingxing was a businessman whose greatest skill was knowing himself and his enemy.

That bastard Wei Yue is shameless, but surprisingly effective.

"Why should I learn from him?" Ji Yan frowned, her heart filled with repulsion. She lowered her head to look at the lively giant freshwater prawns in the pool, her eyes darting around under her eyelids.

Ok.

It is not impossible.

……

The brother and sister chatted for two or three hours at a time.

It wasn't until the video call rang that Nan Shu realized it was almost eleven o'clock.

Nan Shu pulled out her phone from under Tie Dan's stomach, and her eyelashes trembled when she saw the name displayed on it.

Nan Yannian caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of his eye, then looked at his younger sister, his peach blossom eyes narrowing slightly.

Nan Shu didn't answer the phone until it went silent, and Nan Sinian knew that his younger sister had finally figured it out.

He sighed softly to himself, raised his hand and ruffled her hair. "Just follow your heart and let nature take its course."

Nan Shu put down her phone, tilted her head to rest on Nan Sinian's shoulder, and softly hummed in agreement.

Nan Sinian's lips curled slightly.

The siblings chatted for a while, and if Nan Sinian hadn't had to catch a flight early the next morning, the conversation might have continued even longer.

Nan Shu spent two days at home adjusting and finally got her sleep schedule back in order.

During this time, the four of them seemed to have agreed not to disturb Nan Shu, which gave her plenty of time to sort out her thoughts.

As the 8 a.m. bell rang, Nan Shu, unusually early, glanced at the calendar, got out of bed, and put on a more formal outfit.

I was stuck in traffic on the overpass for more than half an hour when I arrived at 8 a.m. I rushed and finally managed to get a seat in the audience before the closing ceremony.

"Xiaonan..."

When Shi Lei saw Nan Shu arrive, it was as if he had seen a savior. His lips trembled and his eyes immediately reddened. Sitting in his seat, he looked like a small mountain, except now he was a fragile one, trembling as if small stones were about to fall down at any moment.

Nan Shu: ...

Nan Shu raised her hand and patted Shi Lei on the shoulder, "Brother Gao said we can't cry."

His muscles were so hard that Nan Shu's hands hurt from patting them, so she switched to patting his arm.

It's also very hard.

Nan Shu withdrew her hand.

Shi Lei didn't realize that he was currently immersed in a sad atmosphere. Upon hearing this, he held back his tears for a long time and finally managed to stammer out a "hmm" from his throat.

As the judge arrived, Gao Mingyao was also brought to the dock. He was questioned, presented evidence, and remained very calm throughout the entire first trial.

In the audience, there were not only Shi Lei and Nan Shu, but also the victim's family members. Nan Shu had seen the people or photos at the brigade and could recognize their faces one by one.

Seeing Gao Mingyao so calm and composed, she stared fiercely at the back of Gao Mingyao's head with red eyes, her eyes filled with resentment and venom.

The Nan family didn't come. Now, the Nan family's business is teetering on the brink of collapse. The Nan family is too busy taking care of itself. Moreover, although Nan Jianye was burned and hospitalized by Gao Mingyao, the real killer was someone else.

Of course, whether there are other reasons behind this, only the Nan family knows best.

For Gao Mingyao, those he killed were all people who deserved to die.

But for the deceased's family, he was her husband, father, and brother.

Different stances lead to different emotions, so when the first instance verdict sentenced Gao Mingyao to death, Shi Lei couldn't help but burst into tears, while the others all showed expressions of satisfaction.

Nan Shu sighed inwardly, but still reached out and patted Shi Lei on the shoulder.

Gao Mingyao saw Shi Lei and Nan Shu, but he didn't turn around at all. When he was being taken away, he heard Shi Lei's cries, paused, and turned his head slightly, but ultimately didn't turn back. Instead, he quickened his pace and left.

"Brother Gao!!!"

Shi Lei yelled and grabbed the railing of the gallery, trying to get over, with one hand reaching out in the direction Gao Mingyao had left.

Despite Nan Shu's gritted teeth and all her strength, Ren Cai was unable to flip over.

When Shi Lei came out of the courthouse, he had stopped crying, but he was still sobbing and his eyes were swollen.

Outside the courthouse, Lao Liu and the others had been waiting in their RV for quite some time. (End of Chapter)
