"Old Luo, you're making too much of a fuss!"
"What's wrong with young people getting to know each other? It's not like we're saying they have to date!"
"I just think Xiaoshen is a good person, worth befriending."
Liu Weimin retorted with a pout.
"I know your little sche."
"Isn't it just that you want Xiaoshen to be your granddaughter's husband so you can always have soone to play chess with?"
Luo Zhengyi rolled his eyes. He had thought about this yesterday and even asked Shen Qiushan about his relationship status during dinner.
After finding out that Shen Qiushan had a steady girlfriend and even plans to get married, he dropped the idea and didn't bring it up again.
However, Luo Zhengyi still felt it was a pity; in his opinion, Shen Qiushan and his granddaughter Lou Man were a good match.
Not to ntion their family background is impressive, and Shen Qiushan is a renowned writer, who even won an officially recognized special prize at an electronic technology competition.
Although his family background isn't that great, becoming the Luo family's son-in-law would instantly fill that gap.
But this kind of thing is just wishful thinking; after all, Shen Qiushan already has a girlfriend.
Luo Zhengyi couldn't bring himself to steal soone else's partner!
Unexpectedly, that old fellow Liu Weimin actually started planning to steal soone else's partner, so of course, Luo Zhengyi had to stand up and oppose it.
He silently thought to himself: even if there's going to be any stealing, it should be our Manman who goes first.
There must be an order to things!
While the two were arguing.
A young, beautiful woman walked into the ward carrying a thermal lunch box.
"I knew you'd be in Grandpa Luo's room!"
"Playing chess again, Grandpa Luo, did you win?"
As the woman spoke, she also noticed Shen Qiushan in the ward.
She was montarily surprised and couldn't help but exclaim, "Teacher Shen?"
"Is it you, Teacher Shen!"
Obviously, this young, beautiful woman knew about Shen Qiushan.
"Hello, it's ."
Shen Qiushan nodded with a smile, while also taking a brief look at her.
The woman was dressed simply, wearing a gray hoodie and loose jeans, her hair casually tied back, with a bare face that was clean and neat.
Her eyes were particularly bright and clear, as if they could see through everything.
"Teacher Shen, I'm your fan."
"I love 'Three-Body Civilization' so much, I never expected to et you here."
"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself, my na is Liu Huanhuan."
The woman enthusiastically introduced herself.
"Xiaoshen, this is my granddaughter."
"I was just saying I wanted you two to et."
"Speak of Cao Cao and Cao Cao arrives!"
Liu Weimin said, smiling broadly.
"Why are you talking about ?"
Liu Huanhuan placed the lunch box onto the coffee table.
Since there was no space on the sofa, she simply sat by the bedside.
"You're about the sa age as Xiaoshen, so I thought I'd introduce you two."
Liu Weimin replied, and then, as if by reflex, added, "No other aning!"
Liu Huanhuan was always the focus of the family's attention when it ca to personal relationships, so she naturally understood her grandfather's intentions.
She instinctively glanced at Shen Qiushan and then boldly asked, "Teacher Shen, they say online that you're with Lin Xiamo, is that true?"
"Or is it just a rumor?"
As a fan of Shen Qiushan, Liu Huanhuan had always followed his updates, and she had watched his performance on 'Voice of Hua Country' many tis.
It was precisely because of that close collaboration at the finals of 'Voice of Hua Country' that countless netizens started shipping Shen Qiushan and Lin Xiamo as a 'CP'.
Netizens even dug up their history, noting that Lin Xiamo was the vice-principal of Sanjiang High School when Shen Qiushan was a transfer student.
At the ti, there was a lot of public questioning.
Lin Xiamo, as a representative of the school, spoke up strongly in support of Shen Qiushan!
Moreover, their "relative" relationship was also revealed.
Initially, this relationship was quite sensitive, but after learning that Shen Qiushan's wife had been deceased for 18 years, people felt Lin Xiamo as a sister moving up seed most suitable.
All these traces combined, and the rumors between the two spread even more among fans.
Liu Huanhuan had always been curious, and seeing him in person, she couldn't help but gossip.
Shen Qiushan didn't expect her to be so direct, but he didn't have any intention of hiding his relationship either.
Had it not been for considering Lin Moxuan's feelings, he would have gone public long ago.
"Yes, it is!"
Shen Qiushan decisively nodded, then added, "With Uncle Luo and Uncle Liu here, I can't lie, but I hope Miss Liu won't spread it around."
"Don't worry!"
"I'm very secretive!"
"I definitely won't tell anyone!"
Liu Huanhuan imdiately raised her left hand in a vow.
"Xiaoshen, don't worry about that."
"Our Huanhuan is a police officer, she keeps her word."
Liu Weimin chid in from the side.
"A police officer?"
Shen Qiushan looked at Liu Huanhuan in surprise, truly not expecting that this simply dressed, strikingly beautiful woman before him was a police officer.
She was entirely unlike the policewon he had imagined.
Maybe influenced by TV shows!
On TV, policewon are often portrayed as heroic and dashing.
While Liu Huanhuan gave off a feeling of being elegant and charming.
"Not only am I a police officer, I'm also a detective!"
Seeing Shen Qiushan in shock, Liu Huanhuan laughed.
"A detective?"
"That's impressive!!"
Shen Qiushan couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
The difference between a detective and a regular officer is quite significant, with the nature of the work being relatively more dangerous.
Shen Qiushan really couldn't associate Liu Huanhuan, such a gentle and lovely girl, with being a detective.
"My dad is a police officer, so I've wanted to be one since I was a child. Now you could say I've fulfilled my dream."
Liu Huanhuan explained.
However, she didn't ntion a word about her dad or her current position.
They chatted for a while.
Liu Huanhuan opened a lunch box and placed the food on the coffee table.
"Grandpa Luo, you should join us!"
"There are four dishes, more than enough for all of you!"
"Alright, then I'll join for a al."
Luo Zhengyi did not hold back and picked up so chopsticks to eat with Liu Weimin.
"Huanhuan, later you should treat Xiaoshen to a al!"
"I'll cover the bill!"
While eating, Liu Weimin didn't forget to remind her.
"Sure!"
Liu Huanhuan responded with a smile, then looked at Shen Qiushan and asked, "Teacher Shen, is there anything you'd like to eat?"
"Apart from solving cases, I'm best at eating!"
Shen Qiushan shook his head, "I already ate when I ca, so I'm not hungry at all."
"Teacher Shen, that excuse of yours isn't very convincing."
Liu Huanhuan squinted her beautiful eyes with a bit of pride, "Don't forget, I'm a detective. Since I opened the lunch box, you've unconsciously swallowed four tis."
"That ans you're actually very hungry!"
"Uh..."
Shen Qiushan was montarily stunned. His previous statent was indeed an excuse, simply because he didn't want to have a al with Liu Huanhuan on their first eting.
Firstly, they're not familiar with each other, and having a al could be awkward.
Secondly, Liu Weimin had other intentions, making dining alone an unsuitable choice.
As his lie was busted, Shen Qiushan felt a bit embarrassed. But he quickly adjusted his thoughts and said with a smile, "Miss Liu has keen observational skills, and I know a bit about face and palm reading, and also how to decipher words."
"Based on my observations, it seems Miss Liu has so tricky matters to handle lately. I wonder if I'm right?"
"Huh?"
Now it was Liu Huanhuan's turn to be surprised. She indeed had a case on her hands that was giving her a headache. Because of this case, she had been on a week-long interstate trip and returned empty-handed.
"Teacher Shen, you're quite sly."
"I'm a police officer, so naturally there are tricky cases at hand."
After a short pause, Liu Huanhuan quickly responded.
Shen Qiushan had derived this conclusion based on her occupational nature, which had nothing to do with face or palm reading.
"That's not it."
"Cases do have different priorities."
Shen Qiushan said as he picked up paper and pen from the bedside table and handed them to Liu Huanhuan, "Here, just write a random word."
"Then I'll give you the answer!"
"Really?"
"This sounds too mystical!"
Liu Huanhuan was a firm materialist, and she did not believe in Shen Qiushan's words at all.
However, since it was just writing a word, she saw no harm in it. She imdiately picked up the pen, thought for a mont, and wrote the character "city" on the paper.
"I've written it."
"What's the answer?"
Liu Huanhuan handed the written character to Shen Qiushan.
"Do you want the answer to be about marriage or career?"
Shen Qiushan asked.
"Career!"
Liu Huanhuan blurted out.
Shen Qiushan nodded and summoned the taphysical knowledge in his mind. After pondering for a mont, he said, "The person you're looking for is on the mountain, and there's an ancient town at the foot of it."
"Uh?"
"On the mountain?"
"That's impossible!"
Liu Huanhuan chuckled and shook her head, "Teacher Shen, to be honest with you, I'm indeed trying to catch a serial killer recently."
"Based on the clues I have, he went to a coastal city, where there are no mountains."
"Have you found him?" Shen Qiushan asked.
"Not yet."
"But based on my experience, it should be soon!"
Liu Huanhuan said confidently.
"Alright, I was just saying it casually."
Shen Qiushan shrugged. It was his first ti using his taphysical knowledge, so he wasn't confident either.
Since Liu Huanhuan seed so assured, he didn't say anything further.
Just then, Liu Huanhuan's phone suddenly rang. She glanced at the caller ID and quickly stepped out of the room to answer it.
"Captain Liu, a clue from a civilian indicates that Wu Dacheng was seen in Xima Ancient Town!"
"What? Xima Ancient Town??"
Liu Huanhuan was shocked, "No, he clearly went in the opposite direction."
"Is this clue reliable?"
"There's a photo, a tourist accidentally captured him while taking pictures."
"Send the photo imdiately!"
"Alright!"
After ending the call, the other party imdiately sent Liu Huanhuan a photo, and in the corner of this photo, they really saw the wanted suspect by the police.
Liu Huanhuan's lips twitched as she involuntarily recalled Shen Qiushan's earlier words: The person you're looking for is on the mountain, and there's an ancient town at the foot of it.
She imdiately opened the map and located Xima Ancient Town, finding that there indeed was a mountain next to the ancient town.
Could this actually be possible?
Could that guy really be on the mountain!
