You went on a blind date and presented an A-level wanted criminal as a meeting gift?

The cool evening breeze dispelled the effects of the alcohol, but also stirred up the hearts of some.

The moonlight, like water, filtered through the gaps in the leaves, casting dappled shadows that stretched Lin Chen and Su Qingge's shadows long and thin, sometimes overlapping and sometimes slowly separating.

No one spoke, enjoying the rare tranquility.

When Su Qingge reached the old locust tree at the entrance of the compound, she suddenly stopped.

She turned around, and her usually aloof phoenix eyes were now glistening with tears in the moonlight, so gentle that they seemed capable of melting even the hardest steel.

"you……"

She spoke softly, as if she wanted to say something, but swallowed the words back.

In the end, she simply reached out her slender hand, with a hint of caution that she herself didn't even realize, to straighten the slightly disheveled collar of Lin Chen's expensive suit.

The fingertips were warm and slightly cool, gently tracing the skin of Lin Chen's neck.

A faint electric current surged through me, bringing an uncontrollable tingling sensation.

The two were extremely close at that moment.

Lin Chen was so close that he could clearly smell the faint fragrance emanating from her hair and feel her warm breath gently brushing against his cheek.

Lin Chen lowered his head.

Under the moonlight, Su Qingge's face was breathtakingly beautiful, and her sharp, cold eyes were now filled with intoxicating tenderness and shyness.

His gaze finally settled on her luscious red lips.

His Adam's apple bobbed uncontrollably.

Su Qingge felt his burning gaze, her heart skipped a beat, and her breathing became rapid.

She did not back down.

Instead, it seemed as if she had made up her mind; her long eyelashes trembled slightly as she slowly closed her eyes.

She tilted her head slightly, her snow-white neck forming a beautiful and delicate arc in the night.

This is a silent invitation.

It is tacit approval after the iceberg has completely melted.

The air was instantly filled with an ambiguous atmosphere that reached its peak.

A surge of heat rose in Lin Chen's heart, and he could no longer suppress that primal urge. He slowly lowered his head and moved closer to that alluring rosy hue.

Their breaths mingled.

Their noses touched.

Just as their lips were about to touch, and that warm, soft touch was about to be imprinted on their skin!

"Ring ring ring ring—!"

A sudden, piercing cell phone ringtone rang out without warning in the quiet night!

The enchanting atmosphere shattered instantly!

Su Qingge suddenly opened her eyes, took a step back in a panic, and increased the distance between the two.

Her stunningly beautiful face flushed crimson, turning as red as a boiled shrimp, even her earlobes turning an alluring pink. She was too shy to look at Lin Chen again.

"Hold!"

Lin Chen cursed inwardly, feeling that a deal worth millions had just fallen through.

He was furious and took out his phone.

Caller ID: Su Ke'er.

Why is this girl making a phone call so late?

Lin Chen frowned and answered the phone in a bad mood.

"Feed?"

On the other end of the phone, Su Ke'er's usual lively and cheerful voice was not heard.

Instead, there was a suppressed, terrified sob that sounded like a cry.

"Brother Lin Chen... help me..."

Her voice was extremely low, as if there was some terrifying presence nearby that made her afraid to even speak loudly.

The impatience on Lin Chen's face vanished instantly, and his eyes suddenly became sharp as knives!

"What's wrong? Don't be afraid, tell me slowly!"

"I...I'm at home..."

Su Ke'er's voice trembled violently with fear.

"But I feel... I feel like... someone's in the house..."

Lin Chen's expression suddenly changed drastically!

His languid demeanor vanished instantly, replaced by a chilling, murderous aura that sent shivers down one's spine!

Su Qingge, who was standing to the side, noticed that something was wrong. She immediately put away her shyness, regained her capable demeanor as a criminal police captain, and asked urgently:

"What's wrong?"

"Something happened to Ke'er."

Lin Chen put away his phone, without saying a word, and turned to open the door of the Audi RS7.

"Get on the bus!"

"boom--!"

The roar of the engine, like that of a beast, shattered the tranquility of the military compound. The black phantom shot into the deep night like an arrow released from a bow!

In the car, Lin Chen explained the situation at top speed.

Su Qingge's expression also became extremely solemn.

"The city police station is closest to Kerr's house!"

She made a quick decision and immediately contacted Li Mingyu, who was on duty.

"Li Mingyu! Take your men to Room 1602, Building A, Sunshine Waterfront Residential Complex immediately! Right now!"

Upon hearing that it was Su Qingge speaking, Li Mingyu on the other end of the phone immediately felt that his chance to shine had come, and hurriedly agreed loudly.

"Yes, Qingge, I'll take people there right away!"

……

Twenty minutes later.

The Audi RS7 screeched to a halt in front of the Sunshine Waterfront residential complex.

As soon as Lin Chen and Su Qingge got out of the car, they saw Li Mingyu standing in the apartment lobby with two young police officers, smoking listlessly.

Upon seeing Su Qingge, Li Mingyu immediately stubbed out his cigarette and greeted her with a boastful expression.

"Qingge, you've arrived."

He shrugged and said in a relaxed tone:

"I just took some people up there to check. It's just the little girl scaring herself; she's being overly sensitive."

"We searched the place thoroughly, inside and out. The doors and windows were intact, with no signs of forced entry, so no one had gone in."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but make a complaint.

"Young girls these days, they just love to make a fuss. I bet she watched some horror movie last night and is scaring herself, insisting that there's someone else in the house. Isn't that just making things difficult for her?"

Lin Chen glanced at him coldly, too lazy to waste a single word on this idiot.

He completely ignored Li Mingyu and rushed straight into the elevator.

Su Qingge frowned and immediately followed.

"Oh, Qingge..."

Li Mingyu was left standing there, his face turning pale and then red, extremely embarrassed.
