Yin Shaojie knew that she didn’t understand, so he didn’t need to worry that she was looking.
After watching for some time Mu Xiaoxiao yawned.
Yin Shaojie said tepidly, “If you are sleepy, go to bed.”
Mu Xiaoxiao shook her head. “I want to keep you company.”
Yin Shaojie chuckled, reached out, and touched her head. Then his hand stopped. He picked up the house phone on the coffee table and called the helper to bring him a cup of hot milk and a cup of water.
Seeing that he had stopped, Mu Xiaoxiao asked curiously, “What are you doing? I don’t understand.”
“Checking some information.” Yin Shaojie thought for a moment and explained to her, “Didn’t we suspect that Su Lin was behind the previous incidents? I’m looking for evidence. The guy who used to sit in front of you gave us some clues. I started with the clues he gave us to see if there was anything that would point us to Su Lin.”
Mu Xiaoxiao suddenly understood it from his simple explanation, “Is this called proving by contradiction?”
“Smart!” Yin Shaojie gave her a smile of approval.
Just then, the helper brought in hot milk and water before leaving.
Yin Shaojie put the hot milk in front of her. “Drink it. You’ll sleep better.”
Mu Xiaoxiao yawned and refused the hot milk. She wasn’t a three-year-old child anymore. Why would she need to drink milk?
“I don’t need it. I’m quite sleepy now.”
“Yes. Hurry up and drink it. Be good.” Yin Shaojie urged her. Actually, he wanted to let her sleep early. With her by his side, there were some things that were inconvenient to do.
Mu Xiaoxiao pouted. “Okay then…”
She picked up the hot milk and drank it slowly.
Yin Shaojie leaned over and kissed her cheek. “That’s more like it. If you feel sleepy, go to bed, alright?”
“Yeah.” Mu Xiaoxiao nodded and put the cup back on the coffee table. Then she continued to ask, “So have you found anything?”
Yin Shaojie’s expression was a bit complicated. “I found something. Let me do a thorough investigation and I’ll report it to you in detail, okay? Go and sleep.”
“Don’t worry about me. Keep going,” Mu Xiaoxiao said. She was not planning to go back to bed and just wanted to stay with him.
Yin Shaojie didn’t know what to do with her, so he let her be.
He continued to tapping on the keyboard.
After some time he felt thirsty. When he picked up the cup to drink, a window appeared on the screen, and there was an English sentence.
——J, I heard that you were injured?
Yin Shaojie was stunned for a moment and he quickly minimized the dialog box.
Reminded that Xiaoxiao was sitting next to him, he quickly glanced at her, afraid she might have seen the sentence.
However, he saw Xiaoxiao holding the pillow, her little head lying above it. She had fallen asleep without him knowing.
Yin Shaojie breathed a sigh of relief and couldn’t help but chuckle.
He stood up and walked to the other side of the room, gently picked her up, and walked over to the bed.
When he placed Mu Xiaoxiao on the bed, she still hugged his arm as though she depended on it and didn’t want him to go.
Yin Shaojie lowered his head and his thin lips kissed the corners of her mouth before she could let go of his hand.
He covered her properly with the blanket and dimmed the light in the room before he walked back to the coffee table.
On the computer screen, the dialog box popped up again with a new line of English.
——Was the other party too powerful or were you too weak?
Yin Shaojie’s eyes narrowed, looking annoyed, as he quickly typed the words.
——Me, weak? Who was the one who fell for the honeytrap, later found out that the beauty was actually a man, and almost went to bed with him?
