Chapter 565: Such a Miraculous Little One
Mu Qiqi took the advantage of the lunch break to go to the hospital. When she arrived, seeing Feng Shanshan and Tang Yan were glaring at each other, she decided not to disturb them. She felt that the scene was pretty good.
It was only when Tang Yan left the ward did she make her appearance at the door.
“Did your enemies seek revenge on you?”
“Do I look like I have many enemies to you?” Feng Shanshan glared at Mu Qiqi. “You know I have many friends.”
“Why were you still hit if you have many friends? Alright, I’ll stop joking. You’re injured now and you can’t go back to your apartment. What’s your plan? Is there really no relative you can contact?”
“I have the ‘huge’ sum of money given by the Sheng family. Don’t you think my friends and family will be eyeing it?” Feng Shanshan said coldly. “So, I often think that it’s no wonder you rich people never make friends with the poor.”
“You’re poor but I count you as my friend.”
Right then, Tang Yan came back. Seeing Mu Qiqi, it was as if he saw his life savior. “Since you have come, I shall leave.”
“Officer Tang, I have another lecture to attend. I just came to see how she’s doing. Now that Shanshan has suffered a serious injury, she is surely unable to go for the lectures. Perhaps she will continue to trouble you,” Mu Qiqi said quickly. “Please help her. She is a girl. It is not safe for her to be alone.”
“What will it take to be considered not dangerous?”
Tang Yan couldn’t help asking, because Feng Shanshan seemed to not have any difficulty in taking care of herself. The only problem was that she had no place to go and she couldn’t keep staying in the hospital.
“Having a place to stay. I don’t mean she needs care, but at least that way we won’t have to worry about her safety.”
“Go then,” Tang Yan said immediately. Once Mu Qiqi left, he planned to get Feng Shanshan discharged from the hospital and then throw her into his house. Would that be considered safe?
“Then I shall leave.”
Feng Shanshan was still figuring out what they meant by that when both of them were gone. And when Tang Yan returned to the ward, he had got the papers for her hospitalization. “Let’s go.”
“Where to?”
“Where else can you go? Don’t you have no choice but to keep troubling me?” Having said that, Feng Shanshan was picked up from the bed. Then, he really took her to his house and threw her onto the sofa. “You can take care of yourself now. I’ll go back to work. There’s some food in the fridge. There are new toiletries at the bottom shelf of the closet. That said, other than that, don’t touch my things.”
And then, he left.
Feng Shanshan looked around Tang Yan’s house once again. She felt helpless. She was not as lucky as Mu Qiqi to have a complete family and so many people to love her. She was simply… alone.
After her parents divorced, they remarried and lived their own separate lives. She didn’t even know where they were. Apart from the living expenses they wired to her monthly, she almost forgot that she had a father and a mother.
Now, even her friend had betrayed her. Perhaps this was the punishment for her ridiculous actions in the past.
…
Although Mu Qiqi wanted very much to help with Shen Qing’s case, besides being able to perform an autopsy, she really couldn’t talk about many things because she was not experienced enough. Therefore, instead of going to the police station to have a headache, she would rather stay at home and do some reading and revise the lessons. Now that Feng Shanshan was injured, she had to make notes for her.
When Sheng Xiao saw Mu Qiqi arrived earlier than him, he was surprised. “Is the case solved?”
Mu Qiqi shook her head. “The investigation has stagnated because there aren’t any more clues. The team is having a headache at the police station. We could solve those seemingly complex cases. But now despite this case appearing very simple, we’re not able to proceed.”
“Why are there two copies of notes?” Sheng Xiao took off his coat and sat on the sofa.
“Feng Shanshan was beaten up. She is in the hospital,” Mu Qiqi answered casually. “I can’t just ignore her and not help.”
“There is an annual function tomorrow night. Are you coming?”
Mu Qiqi put down her pen and looked at her man. “Of course, I am. Your female partner can only be me. Besides, there isn’t much use of me going to the police station.”
“It’s almost New Year. There are more of these functions this year. Please bear with it.”
“What do you mean? I don’t have to bear with it, I’m very happy to go, okay? Didn’t Secretary He said that he was going to introduce his wife to us?” Mu Qiqi did not show any impatience or dislike.
“Going to these functions are not related to your profession at all. I thought…”
“I don’t need you to feel sorry and I don’t dislike it. Whether it is being a forensics doctor or your wife, I feel very happy.” Mu Qiqi reached out and wrapped her arms around Sheng Xiao’s neck. “Trust me. I will take care of everything perfectly. Although I know my husband will be with me for the rest of my life, I can’t be too audacious, can I?”
Sheng Xiao chuckled and pushed her away. “Go on reading your case document. I’ll go and get changed.”
“Actually, reading the document is rather boring. Why don’t I help you change?” Mu Qiqi blinked.
Sheng Xiao immediately grabbed her collar. “You’re such a miraculous little one.”
That’s what Mu Qiqi thought. No matter how focused she was on one thing, she would not forget that he was the person who provided her such a relaxed environment to do whatever she wanted.
Xiaoxiao had taken the burden of taking care of the Shen family from her shoulders. If she was still too stingy to contribute, she would hurt the person she loved the most.
It’s just that, although they were talking about getting changed, they were actually doing a pretty intimate workout in the dressing room.
Young people had such good stamina. They could do it anywhere and anytime they liked.
On the other hand, at the police station, the team was reorganizing the information of the case. Three days had passed, and the public was still talking about it. However, they simply could not find any trace of the suspicious man.
It was just too bizarre.
Late at night, when Tang Yan got home, he saw Feng Shanshan sitting in the living room watching TV. So, he asked, “Have you eaten?”
“Yeah, I found noodles in your kitchen, so I made you some. If you are not interested in the noodles, you can just leave it. I’ll make it my supper.”
Hearing that, Tang Yan went to the kitchen and saw the noodles which were still steaming hot. He tried a bite, and surprisingly, it did not taste bad.
“I never imagined that you can cook.”
“I have been living alone since young. What’s there that I won’t learn?”
“Well, not me,” Tang Yan replied casually. “I don’t like to.”
“Give me a thumbs up if it’s tasty. Consider it rent.” Feng Shanshan lay on the sofa. “How’s the progress of the case?”
“Still no progress,” said Tang Yan. “If you are injured, there is no need to ask so many questions. I’ll still sleep in the study. You can help yourself.”
“What a boring man. If you continue to be like this, you won’t get a girlfriend,” Feng Shanshan commented.
