A man trying to seduce the police captain: Captain Lu, you're doomed!

3 PM.

The office of Lu Chenyuan was filled with the rich aroma of cake and cream.

He looked at the pink cake box on his desk and felt like he was possessed.

Just because Su Wan fed him a bite yesterday, he actually had someone buy the same thing today.

But after buying it, he didn't want to eat it anymore, and even wanted to throw it away.

He picked up the cake box, preparing to get up and throw it in the trash can, but his fingers suddenly tightened.

Clutching the box tightly, it took a long time before I slowly opened it—

I picked up my fork, scooped out a small piece of cake, and put it in my mouth.

The sweet cream melted on his tongue, carrying the fragrance of strawberries, just like the taste Su Wan fed him yesterday.

But he found it utterly boring.

Just then, the office door was gently pushed open, and a subordinate walked in carrying a stack of files.

He saw Lu Chenyuan eating cake, paused for a moment, and then smiled in surprise.

"Captain Lu, you like sweets too? My girlfriend likes this cake, but I don't like it because it's too sweet. I didn't expect you and my girlfriend have the same taste."

This subordinate was the one who had been thoroughly berated by Lu Chenyuan in the cafeteria last time.

Lu Chenyuan was annoyed and wanted to curse, but when he heard the words "My girlfriend likes to eat it too," he swallowed the swear words that were on the tip of his tongue.

He looked up at his subordinate, his cold expression softening slightly, and said calmly.

"Yeah, I've been having a bit of low blood sugar lately, so eating something sweet has been quite good."

The subordinates were completely stunned.

Captain Lu actually chatted with him casually?

Why didn't she find him annoying?

Last time in the cafeteria, he casually asked, "Do steamed buns taste good when you squeeze them?" and was coldly scolded by Lu Chenyuan, which made him feel down for several days.

Today, Captain Lu not only didn't scold him, but also explained to him why he ate sweets. This is like the sun rising in the west!

"So that's how it is."

The subordinate nodded hurriedly, a fawning smile on his face.

"If Captain Lu says it's good, then it must be good. Next time my girlfriend buys some, I'll try it too."

After saying that, he didn't dare to say another word. He put down the file, quickly left the office, and gently closed the door behind him.

After leaving the office, the subordinate excitedly told the other colleagues about Captain Lu eating strawberry cake.

"Can you believe it? Captain Lu was eating strawberry cake in his office!"

"Really? Isn't Captain Lu the one who hates sweets the most?"

"Absolutely true! I saw it with my own eyes. He even said he had low blood sugar, so eating something sweet was good for him."

"I think this isn't low blood sugar at all; it's clearly because Miss Su gave him a strawberry cake yesterday, and he went out of his way to buy the same one today!"

An old colleague who knew the inside story said with a smile.

"So what exactly is their relationship?"

"Captain Lu's girlfriend just came to the office. It seems like they have a pretty good relationship."

"You don't understand, do you? Captain Lu is handsome and comes from a good family, so isn't it normal for him to have several women around him? A gentle and lovely girlfriend, and a hot and charming suitor, tsk tsk, Captain Lu is really lucky with women."

The whispers among his colleagues grew louder and louder, but none of them reached Lu Chenyuan's ears.

At this moment, he was sitting at his desk, eating strawberry cake bite by bite, but he felt no joy at all.

He even considered breaking up with Lin Man.

He initially got together with Lin Man simply because he found her dignified and proper during their blind date, which met his basic requirements for a future partner.

The matchmaker asked for his opinion, and he said he was open to it.

And so began this lukewarm relationship, one in which they never even held hands, and a year passed in the blink of an eye.

He had no love, no desire, and not even much affection for Lin Man; he simply saw her as a suitable marriage partner.

But today, Lin Man's act of secretly recording and slandering Su Wan made him feel deeply disgusted.

That indescribable feeling of disgust clung to him like vines, making it hard for him to breathe.

On the contrary, Su Wan, the woman he once loathed, let go of him so quickly that he was caught off guard.

What about all that relentless pestering, those blatant confessions, and all that desperate entanglement she's been doing these past few days?

Is this treating him like a fool?

Is it a boring game?

After finishing the last bite of cake, Lu Chenyuan slammed his fork heavily onto the plate, his face frighteningly gloomy.

He suddenly felt a strong urge to go find Su Wan immediately, grab her wrist, and question her about the meaning behind her actions over the past few days, demanding an explanation.

He even wondered what would happen if Su Wan told him that she was deliberately trying to annoy him, and that she actually still liked him.

He might forgive her heartlessness, or perhaps...

Just as he was thinking this, the phone on his desk suddenly rang, interrupting his thoughts.

It was Director Zhang calling.

"Shen Yuan, a knife attack has occurred in the city, in an old residential area in the south of the city. Your criminal investigation team is to depart immediately!"

Director Zhang's voice was slightly hurried.

"Police officers from the local station have arrived, but the situation is not optimistic. We need to provide backup immediately."

"receive."

Lu Chenyuan hung up the phone, took a deep breath, and forced himself to put those sentimental thoughts aside.

He stood up and straightened his police uniform.

The irritability and gloom on his face were instantly replaced by a professional seriousness and calmness.

He is a police officer, and it is his duty to arrest criminals and uphold justice.

As for those complicated and tangled emotional entanglements, they can only be put aside for the time being.

He picked up his coat from the back of the chair, strode out of the office, and spoke in a deep voice to his subordinates outside.

"Everyone assemble! Head to the scene of the incident!"

His subordinates immediately stood up, responded in unison, and quickly followed him toward the police car downstairs.

The siren shattered the city's tranquility as it sped off towards the south of the city.

Lu Chenyuan sat in the passenger seat of the police car, his sharp eyes fixed on the road ahead.

Su Wan's face kept flashing through his mind.

The way she smiled, the way she got angry, the way she was resolute, and the sly way she fed him cake.

I felt completely lost and confused.

South of the city.

The wind is strong on the rooftop of the old residential area, carrying the noise and dust of the city, making people's cheeks sting.

A man in a food delivery uniform was tightly gripping a fruit knife stained with blood.

The blade was pressed firmly against a young girl's neck.

The girl was wearing a white dress, and her abdomen was soaked in blood.

His face was as pale as paper, and his eyes were filled with fear and despair.

His body trembled uncontrollably from the pain and fear.

"Why? Tell me why?"

The man's voice was hoarse and trembling, filled with hysterical madness.

"I delivered takeout to support your college education, scrimped and saved, only sleeping four hours a day. I gave you all my money, I pinned all my hopes on you, and now that you've succeeded, you want to dump me? You ungrateful woman!"
