Chapter 491: Murder In The Secret Room Of The Dormitory
Unexpectedly, Qi Youxuan arrogantly said, “Mumu, rember to respect Sergeant Jiang even more next ti. Rember to call him Uncle Jiang when you et him again!”
Every single person fell into common silence.
It seed they had underestimated the extent of how truly shaless Qi Youxuan could be.
As the al was served, Qi Youxuan imdiately served Wei Muran so food and had even picked out the tiny fish bones for her. As long as Wei Muran could eat comfortably, it never bothered him much. There was no need for Wei Muran to do anything on her own other than using her chopsticks and drinking water.
Wei Muran felt guilty and whispered, “It’s fine, go ahead and eat, alright?”
“It’s my sole responsibility to take care of my girlfriend,” Qi Youxuan said as he picked out the tiny fish bones for Wei Muran while shalessly tilting his head to the side. “I know Mumu cares about the most,” he added.
“...” Wei Muran could no longer contain herself, pinching him with all her might and rebuked him, “You... Behave yourself now!”
Everyone else witnessing this scene cringed extrely hard. Zhang Ming felt like puking but knew nothing he said would even go through Qi Youxuan’s head, so he had no choice but to continue resisting the urge to do so. Of course, he kept staring at Qi Youxuan with an unrelenting judgental gaze.
Qi Youxuan never noticed his stares and instead glanced over at Wei Muran with an extrely depressing look. “It’s an arduous journey for to gain this official acknowledgnt from you,” whined Qi Youxuan, “can’t you allow to show off a little?”
“You...you had your fun now!” Wei Muran glared at him. She then said, “If you keep this up, I’ll ignore you!”
“Alright, alright, alright.” Qi Youxuan frantically placed so food on her plate. He then coaxed, “Don’t get mad alright, Mumu?”
...
After that al, everyone proceeded to head back ho.
Since Wei Muran knew Qi Youxuan was still suffering from jetlag and that he was extrely tired, she vehently told him to rest, adamant on not going on a date with him at this mont.
On the other hand, Qi Youxuan was aware of how hard Wei Muran had worked on this case, all the all-nighters she had pulled, and the hectic schedule which forced her to wake up extrely early. He never objected too much so he drove her back ho.
Wei Ziqi was still working in his office at this mont so she was not worried about Wei Ziqi running into them.
As the car was parked by the entrance of her ho, and the instant Wei Muran unbuckled her seatbelt, Qi Youxuan suddenly hugged her tightly.
It was as if Qi Youxuan was hugging a body pillow, literally cuddling up to her and nuzzling against her entirely. He then said, “Mumu, why don’t you sleep with in the car for a bit? It feels too good hugging you, I really wanna sleep now.”
The tone of Qi Youxuan’s voice sounded really exhausted and tired. He did not move an inch the instant he hugged her, collapsing into Wei Muran’s body.
Wei Muran actually assud he was asleep at this mont thus she did not dare move an inch, allowing him to cuddle with her. Nonetheless, she was uncomfortable in this state.
As she tried to move to a slightly more comfortable position, Qi Youxuan would crawl up to her, making her even more uncomfortable.
Qi Youxuan had only intended to act coquettishly to her, but he noticed Wei Muran had not moved an inch. It was incredibly quiet and after slling the amazing scent that was emanating from Wei Muran’s body, he genuinely fell asleep.
This nap alone was two hours long; Wei Muran too had napped for a little while.
Qi Youxuan was the first to wake up. He noticed Wei Muran’s eyes were shut tight and was sleeping peacefully. He noticed her soft, tender white skin had a slight subtle hint of blush. It was as if her skin was completely transparent.
Qi Youxuan chuckled before sneakily kissing her lips.
As she felt a slight itch on the edge of her lips, she gave it a gentle scratch before slowly opening her eyes. The instant she opened up her eyes, she was greeted with Qi Youxuan’s incredibly close-up face.
Startled, her face blushed almost imdiately as she shoved his face to the side. “What the hell are you leaning so close to for? You scared the life outta .”
Qi Youxuan shalessly leaned back at her while puckering his lips, begging for a kiss. However, after doing so, his expression morphed into a strange look.
Wei Muran felt odd as she noticed Qi Youxuan’s line of sight was a little weird, so she turned around to find Wei Ran standing beside the car with arms crossed, seemingly teasing them as she stared.
Wei Muran imdiately shoved him aside and got out of the car. The instant she got down, she rushed to grab onto her mother’s arm and said, “Heheh, mom, what are you doing out here?”
“I was about to do so work in organizing my garden when I saw a car that resembled Qi Youxuan’s parked right out the door when I did, so I decided to head outside to investigate.” As Wei Ran explained, Youxuan had also got out of his car.
Qi Youxuan proceeded to walk toward her. He said with an extrely sweet voice along with a clean and wide smile, “Mom!”
Wei Ran smirked but there was not exactly a huge reaction from her. After all, she was used to Qi Youxuan calling her mother-in-law. She was unsure if he had done it on purpose, but it was no-brainer she was brainwashed by the way he addressed her ever since he was little.
Fortunately for them, Wei Ziqi was not present with them. If he had noticed them, this shaless brat would end up beaten and bruised all over before sending him back ho.
“Now that you’ve already sent her ho, you’ll need to head on back for so rest too, you know?” Wei Ran said. She added, “Your father returns quite early from work recently, and he’ll run into you both the longer you two stand out here.”
Wei Muran stuck out her tongue at Qi Youxuan. Qi Youxuan was also aware that he should not rush things with Wei Ziqi so he walked over to Wei Ran’s side and proceeded to grab onto her shoulders and whined in a sad, depressing tone, “Mom, when Dad cos ho later, you’ll have to put in so good word for , okay? You’ll have to hurry up and help officiate our relationship okay. Otherwise, I’ll be left without any official status within our family, and I’d feel so conflicted!”
Staring at Qi Youxuan’s sad look, Wei Ran could not help but grace him with so motherly love.
She patted Qi Youxuan’s hand and said, “Don’t you worry. No matter what happens, it’s best for to give him so prep ti and so heads up first. This will allow him to be fully prepared, so when the ti cos, he wouldn’t react too drastically.”
As he thought about his father-in-law, Qi Youxuan felt slightly anxious. He said, “You’re the best, Mom. Don’t you worry, I’ll make sure I’ll treat you extrely well in the future.”
Wei Ran chuckled as she was completely chard by Qi Youxuan.
After sending Qi Youxuan, Wei Ran brought Wei Muran ho as they walked side by side. She proceeded to gently poke Wei Muran’s nose and said, “I knew it! I’ve always known he’d win your heart.”
“Oh my god, Mom. Was I truly... that easy to be won over? I’ve made him wait for over 20 years now, you know!” Wei Muran replied with a pride-filled tone.
Wei Ran nodded in content. She said, “That’s great that he’s decided on you since he was a child. Otherwise, judging from your dad’s attitude and temper, I believe he’d actually want you to not marry anyone.”
“...” Wei Muran was speechless.
That possibility was not too far-fetched.
...
Qi Youxuan returned ho in order to retune his body’s natural circadian rhythm. Of course, it was never a one-day recovery as he had taken a long nap at noon, coupled with his flight back ho from Europe. It was morning over in Europe, and he had also taken a nap in flight since he was bored. He thus beca wide awake in the middle of the night. He only felt tired when it was three in the morning.
He was plagued by severe insomnia yet was too afraid of disturbing Wei Muran. Eventually, he fell asleep after a long and painful struggle. He was too tired to wake up in the day.
The blaring of his ringtone woke him from his slumber, and he initially intended to ignore the call and wanted to just hang up. His hands had already reached his phone but as he seemingly recalled sothing, he imdiately struggled to open his eyes. Before his vision focused, he could see the na ‘Mumu’ displayed on his screen. Hence, he imdiately picked up the call.
“Mumu, do you need to head to work? Just wait for , I’ll drive you there.” Qi Youxuan got out of bed to collect himself as he spoke.
“No, Sergeant Jiang called earlier, told a male victim had died in University A.” Judging from Wei Muran’s tone, she too sounded groggy, a proof she had also been awakened by a phone call.
He knew for fact that she had also been told about this incident and had called him imdiately. Qi Youxuan’s smile was wide enough to touch the very edge of his ears.
“We’re leaving now, and we’ll be gathering in University A,” said Wei Muran.
“Just wait for , I’ll pick you up from your house,” Qi Youxuan replied as he jumped off his bed and started to get ready.
“You don’t have to. Jiang Yuecheng told that he’s going to University A with since he’s going the sa route,” Wei Muran replied.
“Colleague, Wei Muran!” Wei Muran was startled by the serious tone Qi Youxuan used on her. Although Qi Youxuan could not see it, Wei Muran sat up from her bed the instant she heard that tone through the phone call.
“What...what’s wrong?” Wei Muran was shocked; he had never used that tone with her, even from when they were children.
“You have a boyfriend now, how could you allow another man to drive you?” Especially when that man had clear feelings for you.
However, he had only kept the last bit of the sentence to himself, since he dared not to tell Wei Muran. If Wei Muran knew about how Jiang Yuecheng felt about her, he would have done him a favor.
“Sergeant Jiang told he’d also be picking up Xing Jiadong. It’s on the sa route anyway,” Wei Muran replied in a soft tone. However, she had never doubted anything Qi Youxuan had told her ever since she was little. Most of the ti, whatever he said turned out to be true, which resulted in her current lack of resistance.
“Heheh,” Qi Youxuan chuckled. He knew Jiang Yuecheng would be alone in that car when he would arrive.
When that happened, he would have said that sothing turned up for Xing Jiadong, so he took off to University A first.
Such a pathetic, shaless man to push soone into a corner.
“I’ll call him and tell him you’ll be picking up then,” Wei Muran said.
Feeling extrely satisfied with her reply, Qi Youxuan swiftly got ready then proceeded to drive over to Wei Ziqi’s house. However, upon his arrival, he was shocked to see Jiang Yuecheng had still shown up at the door.
Wei Muran was awkwardly waiting with him, thus, Qi Youxuan imdiately got out of the car with a huge smile on his face.
“What a coincidence, Sergeant Jiang,” Qi Youxuan said with a huge smile.
“Oh, it’s on the sa route anyway, so I decided to drive Muran to University A with ,” Jiang Yuecheng replied with a cold expression.
