Chapter 1173: She Met Him again and Felt that He Was Still so Nice
“I’m I that kind of person?” Nian Xi rolled her eyes, said, “I am rich, and I have a perfect body. I’m one of those pretty rich girls who have snow-white skin, and always keep low profiles. Will someone like me get married merely for marriage?”
She wouldn’t have broken up with Feng Ji Chuan if she was that kind of person.
She admitted that she refused Jiang Yuning in France. First, it was because she was not yet over her failed relationship with Feng Ji Chuan yet, and second, her families didn’t want her to be with Jiang Yuning. She didn’t want to make them worry. Besides, Jiang Yuning was in a complicated condition at that time.
She regretted it slightly when she returned from Dance and saw the love letter in her suitcase.
She regretted not giving him any chance, and not having the courage to give it a try.
Later on, he disappeared, and she gradually forgot about those thoughts.
Now, she met him again and felt that he was still so nice.
It was not impossible for her to give it a shot.
After all, they needed to spend some time together to find out if they were the perfect match for each other.
“You’re right, though,” Fang Qi teased her, “But, you don’t have snow-white skin. You can be a black pearl.”
“Go away,” Nian Xi even wanted to kick him.
‘So annoying,’ she thought, ‘I’m not a black pearl. I just got over-tanned in the summer. I’ll turn white again.’
...
The next day, the report from the forensic department proved that the blood found in the floor tile seam did belong to Duan Yang.
Nian Xi instantly summoned all four suspects and interrogated them.
The day after that, while she and her teammates were having lunch in the canteen, Zhan Hong’s voice was suddenly heard from behind Nian Xi, “Can we sit here?”
Nian Xi turned to see Zhan Hong and Feng Ji Chuan stand behind her, both in uniforms, tall and strong, especially Feng Ji Chuan. He was a muscular man with dashing eyebrows.
She stayed silent. Fan Yi, who was sitting beside her quickly nodded and responded with, “Zhan, what are you talking about? Of course, you can sit here. It’s not like we own the canteen.”
Zhan Hong nodded, sat down together with Feng Ji Chuan, then laughed and asked, “What are you guys talking about?”
Fang Qi said, “About the case that Director Chen gave Nian Xi and me. It’s a murder happened in a university.”
“I heard that it’s a quite difficult one,” Feng Ji Chuan abruptly turned to Nian Xi and said, “Do you need help?”
“Thank you, but no,” Nian Xi paused briefly with surprise, then said no blandly, “We’ve already found the suspects. I think we’ll be able to solve it within this week.”
“Oh,” Zhan Hong raised his eyebrows and asked with curiosity, “Who’re the suspects?”
Fang Qi filled them in with the information about the case. “both Nian Xi and I think that Zhao Yi is the most probable suspect. Duan Yang and Zhao Yi were working on the jet mill project together. I heard that Duan Yang planned to sell the project to a company, but Zhao Yi disagreed. They had a fight about that. Many other students from the school can prove that. We’ve watched the surveillance video. Zhao Yi walked into the lab not long after Duan Yang went in. He had the time to commit the crime, and he doesn’t have an alibi.”
Feng Jichuan thought for a second, then said, “For some case, you can’t be overconfident. Before the suspect pled guilty, everything can still be upturned.”
His tone of speaking made Nian Xi felt a little uncomfortable. She said, “I admit that you’re a capable man because you’ve solved some big cases, like the child abduction case and the drug-dealing case. However, we’ve handled more murder cases like this than you have.”
The atmosphere was a little tense for a moment. Feng Ji Chuan responded with a frown, “Nian Xi, you are, indeed, a more experienced police officer than I am, but all the cases you solved before were small. Also, I heard that you guys haven’t even found that weapon yet.”
