Be in low spirits

Chapter 83: Road to Rebellion

It was indeed the person who got off the car that day. She walked forward and asked seriously, "Are you the one who reported the case?" Fu Yan raised his lips and nodded. When the child saw the police coming, he ran to the nanny and hid.

She glanced at the child, then at Fu Yan who was sitting on the sofa, and frowned and taught him, "Sir, wasting police force is occupying public resources. It's wrong for you to do this."

He raised his eyebrows and snorted contemptuously: "So?"

"So now we are giving you a verbal warning." Although she knew that the person sitting in front of her was Fu Yan, she had no authority to manage other cases. "Isn't your husband here too? Don't you want to hear what I've been through all these years?" He still looked unruly. She glanced at the auxiliary police behind her and warned seriously: "Sir, if there is nothing else, we will close the case." As she was about to leave, the child saw that the person was about to leave, so he stood up and whispered: "Bye, police sister."

Li Li didn't show up. She checked her phone and saw only four words from him on WeChat: Be safe.

The next day after get off work, I drove home and fell asleep. When I woke up, I felt hungry, so I called my mother. Just as I was about to go home for dinner, Li Li came back with some food and put it on the table. I saw her coming out of the room barefoot and talking on the phone, so I asked, "Who are you calling?"

"Uh, Mom, no need. I have dinner tonight." She looked at the bag of vegetables and hung up the phone. "Why are you back?"

"I want to cook you a meal and ask you for a favor." He looked at her bare feet and wanted to get her shoes, but she ran to the entrance and put on her shoes. "What is it?" She was a little confused.

"I want you to meet Fu Yan, but I'm afraid you might be in danger, so I'm a little hesitant." He also sat on the stool at the entrance. "What danger is the police afraid of? If he really wanted to do something to me, he wouldn't have waited until now." I don't know when Li Li started to become timid.

"But I've already lost you once, I don't want to lose you again." He hugged her, the dream in the hospital was still so real and scary. Kong Zhixi patted his back, wondering why he was always like this after leaving the hospital, could it be that he had some sequelae? "I'm right here, how could it be? You cook at home, and when it's done, I'll be back, okay?" She coaxed him like a child, hoping that he could get out of this mood.

"You said you would come back." He hugged her tighter. "Don't you believe he betrayed you?" She glanced at the sky in front of the French window. If she didn't go now, it would probably be dark soon. He finally compromised, said "hmm" softly, and let her go. She changed her shoes, took the key and rushed to Dinghu Villa.

When they arrived, it was the nanny who opened the door. She said, "Hello, I'm looking for Fu Yan." The nanny looked at her, and then Fu Yan's voice came from the room: "Auntie Liu, let her in." The nanny gestured for her to come in.

"Captain Li asked you to come?" He sat on the sofa, holding a financial newspaper in his hand and a cup of coffee on the table. "Are you unwilling to see him, or is he unable to come to see you?"

"Strictly speaking, neither of us has the right to see each other." He lowered the newspaper, glanced at her, picked up the coffee, put down the newspaper, took a sip, and said, "This guy should really thank me. He really did marry you."

"What do you mean?" She found a stool and sat down. Aunt Liu poured her a cup of tea.

"This guy has been secretly inquiring about you ever since he saw you at the airport. He didn't dare to check openly, and he secretly inquired about you for half a year before he found out that you are Lao Kong's daughter." He kept looking at her, which made her very uncomfortable.

She didn't want to listen to his nonsense, nor did she want to waste time. "These are our affairs as a couple. They have nothing to do with you."

"What a joke, you two, ha ha ha, it's really funny. You are in danger alone, all thanks to him!"

She really didn't understand what he was trying to say, "So?"

He finally stopped looking at her, just looked into her eyes and said calmly, "So he's just using you."

"Fu Yan, I came here to know what you've been through over the years, not to listen to your attempts to sow discord."

"Haha, why don't you ask him what I went through? If he wants to check, there is nothing he can't find out." He didn't want to continue this topic and picked up the newspaper.

"So why did you come back? This child?" Speaking of the child, he glanced into the room, "Don't you want to hear who drugged him?" Then he looked at Kong Zhixi with interest. She was shocked and couldn't speak for a long time.

Fu Yan picked up the newspaper again and said, "I won't keep Officer Kong here for dinner. Aunt Liu, show him out." After leaving the house, she sat in the car and thought for a long time. She had doubts about who would dare to drug him, a criminal policeman from the Criminal Investigation Detachment, in public. It just so happened that she was nearby, but what did he want? Her as a person? The phone rang. It was Li Li, urging her to go home for dinner.

During the meal, he asked about Fu Yan. She only said that she came back for the child. As for where she had been in the past few years, he did not say. He just provoked her with many words, as if he had a lot of dissatisfaction. "That's all she said?" He was a little unconvinced. Kong Zhixi raised her eyes and looked at him. Suddenly, she felt that he was a little strange. She picked up her rice and said, "Maybe she has suffered a lot in the past two years and doesn't want to talk about it. If you are worried, you can go to him alone."

He sighed and stopped asking questions. After dinner, he returned to the team, and Kong Zhixi also returned to the station. When she got off work at noon, she remembered the USB flash drive, went back home, and took the USB flash drive away. In the evening, she cooked for Li Li and sent it to the gate of the detachment. She saw him saying goodbye to another girl, and the girl's eyes were full of admiration and love. He changed into a police uniform, with an upright posture, a righteous look, and a tired face. She put the lunch box in the security room, told the security uncle, and left.

She went to Dinghu Villa again, found Fu Yan, showed him the USB drive, and made a deal with him. "Tell me what happened over the years, and I will help you find the password and open the USB drive."

He played with the USB flash drive in his hand with disdain. "Why do you think this is what I need?"

"The death of Accountant Tian is related to Cheung Kong's people. Now, some of Cheung Kong's people have been arrested and some have been sentenced. Sooner or later, you will be found out too. Isn't the evidence in his hand what you need now? This is it." Although she didn't know what was in the USB flash drive, based on what Uncle Qi and Uncle Jiang said, she boldly guessed that this might be the reason why Accountant Tian was killed.

Fu Yan had no way to prove her authenticity, but he knew that she began to believe him. "Okay, what do you want to know?" No matter what was in the USB drive, he just wanted Li Li to be unable to live or die.

"Where have you been for the past two years? Why did you suddenly come back? Why did you lose contact with everyone in the detachment?" She sat upright, thinking that she would have to listen to a long story. "I was in Southeast Asia and joined a gang. Xin Qi is the son of the gang boss's daughter, and I am his stepfather." He picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. "So you came back for the child?" She still didn't understand.

"Hey, do you know why he's called Xin Qi?" He put his hands on his knees with a creepy smile on his face. "Why?"

"Because he is just a hard-working chess piece. His mother died, and I should have taken over the gang, but those old men insisted on letting this kid take over. I want to see how he can take it over!" He smashed the teacup on the table to the ground. There was a crisp sound in the villa. Kong Zhixi trembled and closed her eyes, fearing that the ceramic fragments would pierce her body.

"But, aren't you an undercover agent? How did you end up in Southeast Asia and join a gang?" The fragments fell to the ground, and he regained his composure. "Undercover, hahaha, what a joke." He rolled up his sleeves, which were covered with scars, and unbuttoned his shirt, revealing long scars one after another, which shocked Kong Zhixi.
