When that tall figure of six-foot-one walked into the office and appeared before her, Qi Yuqing had already adjusted her mindset.
The black hair was still so neat and ticulous, the pitch-black eyes had not changed.
Still so observant, smart and sharp, absolutely persistent and tough, the kind of persistence and toughness a police officer must have, and if lacking, it’s best to search for another line of work.
As his determined police gaze swept over her, it beca even sharper.
It caused certain past mories to flash through her mind without any forewarning, just like that, leaping into her thoughts.
Once, this man was always like this, no matter how she teased, he always pursed his lips seriously, yet his flushed earlobes betrayed his bashfulness.
So people, once thought after the turbulent years, would eventually fade away, but until one day he stands before you again, you suddenly realize, everything actually has never changed, he still lingered on your heart.
Go away.
Why?
We’re really not suitable! I don’t like you anymore, why are you clinging? Is there only one man in the world?
Three years ago, he said this to her, severing all her thoughts.
Heartless and unsympathetic, fearless.
When seeing him again, the lights flashing between his hair suddenly gave her an illusion of a different life.
This man was almost unchanged from when she first t him.
As if they were eting for the first ti.
After three years, she was already furious.
Being humiliated by a man like this, she was too angry, later she really didn’t think of looking for him.
She also had dignity.
After being trampled, she would absolutely not want to continue.
Her dignity allowed her to pretend she didn’t know him at all.
"Yuqing, are you okay?"
Bai Song walked very close to her.
What does it have to do with him?
Qi Yuqing showed a surprised but sowhat guarded expression, like how won typically react when they find a stranger too close, too intimate, and she secretly moved her chair a little farther away.
"Oh... nothing, I’m fine. And you are?" she said lightly.
While pretending to calmly replace her expression with one of confusion as she looked at him, as if she seed to rember his face but couldn’t find the na associated with it in her mory.
Indeed, she saw a flash of rage in his dark eyes.
"Bai Song!" he said curtly.
Qi Yuqing cautiously retreated a bit more.
His eyes were filled with anger, seemingly about to erupt at any mont.
This made her feel very proud.
"What did you say?" Qi Yuqing leaned to the side to look behind him, as if to confirm whether there were other police officers present, her expression very innocent yet irritating.
"I am Bai Song." These words were bitingly spat out from his tense lips.
He might think Qi Yuqing’s act was too heartless, but Qi Yuqing was actually quite delighted.
Turns out hitting back at others also brings a kind of joy.
She silently repeated the na, her lips moving slightly, her face then displaying a dawning realization. "Oh, I rember now. Sorry, I just can’t rember nas. Too many things happening, too many people to et every day, sotis face blindness."
Bai Song’s silhouette was reflected in the nearby glass window as he stood with his hands in his pockets.
And those deep black eyes set upon her made Qi Yuqing feel embarrassed with nowhere to hide.
Trying to act unconcerned, the feeling of helplessness within her grew stronger.
"Dr. Qi, your statent is complete, this person is very likely the suspect of the recent robbery murder investigation, thank you for your cooperation, now you may leave."
Pretending to be calm and ignoring the pressure Bai Song exerted on her.
She could see that he was sowhat angry.
But this was the police station, what else could he do?
"Can I go now? I’m exhausted, I’ve been performing surgeries all day, and on duty for a day and a night, if I don’t sleep for a while, I’ll collapse." She was truly tired.
The adrenaline earlier had fired her up.
Now she felt so exhausted she wanted to collapse.
"You can leave now, sign here and press your fingerprint, yes, right here, I’ll take you ho!"
The last sentence was absolutely not Bai Song’s style.
Wasn’t he trying to draw a clear line with her?
What was this about!
"No need!"
Three years ago, he was hot and cold to her, especially throwing her aside like an old rag, now he was offering to take her ho?
Were they that familiar?
Qi Yuqing disliked him being so close to her.
"I think you need it!"
Bai Song’s tall figure enveloped her surroundings, their bodies were very close, in the dim light it’s ambiguous.
Bai Song’s voice was low and steady, when he lowered his head to speak to her like this, there was an indescribable magnetism, and a hint of deliberate seduction.
Undeniably, even after so many years, she was still moved by it.
"Bai Song, you know what I an, I don’t need you! The last thing I need is you sending ."
She wanted to shout hysterically! But afraid of being heard, she still spoke in a lowered voice.
"Don’t make a fuss, you’re too tired now!"
All her actions seed just like a child’s tantrum.
"Who’s fussing with you? You’re not worth it!"
Qi Yuqing blushed.
"So now you’re not pretending not to know ?"
Bai Song was quite satisfied with her current behavior, it was much more vibrant than that brief mont when she didn’t recognize him.
Qi Yuqing was too lazy to continue pretending, after all, Bai Song didn’t buy it.
"And so what? Clearly it doesn’t an much to !"
"I owe you an explanation, I..."
Bai Song looked down at her, his breath sprayed onto Qi Yuqing’s forehead.
"Save your energy, the ti for explanations has long passed."
"I..."
"I’m already indifferent, are you still not indifferent?"
Qi Yuqing pretended to be shocked, after being hurt once, she would no longer chase after him like before.
Let him go to hell.
"I know you’re very tired now, let take you ho."
Packing up the record book in his hand.
It was clear he did not intend to waste words, he picked up his coat and car keys and walked out.
Qi Yuqing didn’t want to follow, but knowing this man’s stubbornness, she might end up letting everyone know about their past relationship.
She was a bit skeptical that letting him take her ho might make him talk about their past; she no longer wanted to bring up the past, so in that case! They should have as little interaction as possible.
Wounds would heal.
She’s not one to be entangled.
She yawned a big yawn.
Then she couldn’t stop once she started, by the ti several consecutive yawns finished, her eyes seed a bit teary.
Damn those eyes.
Bai Song, however, smiled quite happily.
"Co on, I’d best get you ho before you collapse from exhaustion."
She hadn’t had ti to counter his previous words, he just pressed his hand against Qi Yuqing’s waist and gently nudged her towards the door.
