“Then how should I do it?” Looking at Xu Lan’s expression, Bai Wu finally released his pursed lips to smile.
“Like this.” Xu Lan tiptoed and gave Bai Wu a light peck on the lips. “Bai Wu, have you grown taller again?”
Science lessons described how a dragonfly lays its eggs in the water 1 – Xu Lan’s actions were no different. He took a step back after posing the question.
Bai Wu carried Xu Lan up and placed him on the sink. Bai Wu then pried open Xu Lan’s lips and gave him a rough and sloppy kiss. Xu Lan then weakly took a fist to Bai Wu, but to Bai Wu, it felt merely like a tickle.
A pair of reddened eyes, ready for the hunt, stared back at Xu Lan. Such a simple kiss was completely unable to satisfy Bai Wu. He wanted more!
Xu Lan poked at the notebook with a pen. He had no idea why Bai Wu was so enraged.
There was only one reason for the anger – Bai Wu wanted a cell phone. According to him, it was easier to contact Xu Lan. On the days that he would not have to go to school, he felt really bored at home.
Even though Xu Lan had just been reimbursed, he spent the money on the dinner treat as well as new clothes for the both himself and Bai Wu. His wallet became empty again! In light of that, Xu Lan told him that a phone could wait.
Bai Wu said, “What if I wander off? What if Papa is unable to find me?”
To which Xu Lan replied, “Why would you wander off? Are you really going to nitpick and start a scene?”
Bai Wu refuted by saying, “Well, I’m making a scene because Papa never means what he says!”
The conversation shifted quickly from cell phones to nitpicking at each other. It escalated rapidly to a point where the both of them accused each other of not being considerate enough toward each other. Once the spectacle turned intense, the both of them parted on bad terms.
Due to time constraints, Xu Lan dashed back into the bathroom and told Bai Wu to shut it. Then he hurried to work. He had no idea how Bai Wu was doing, much less whether Bai Wu had taken breakfast or was still angry.
“What’s wrong? Something bothering you?” Xiao Feng fished out his notebook. The once-proper notebook had been reduced to tatters due to his constant jabbing.
“Er...nothing, Officer Xiao. It’s just, I can’t figure out what’s the connection between the miners and the developers.” Xu Lan immediately stood up and blurted a random issue on the case while scratching his head.
“If there isn’t any connection, don’t try and force out a connection. What good would it do to simply connect the two together?” Xiao Feng looked at the page that he was jabbing. On each of the possible connections, Xu Lan had drawn a big cross on them. It demonstrated that he was still able to think of a genuine issue notwithstanding his inattentiveness.
“Mm, okay. May I ask if there’s any other news about the remaining two miners? I feel that the criminals might be thinking of a way to target both of them.”
Xu Lan came back to his senses immediately and asked.
“One of them died seven years ago. Another hasn’t been found as of yet,” Xiao Feng replied. “Oh yes, the information regarding the real estate developers have been obtained, would you like to come have a look?”
“Mm, sure!” Xu Lan immediately followed Xiao Feng into the meeting room. On the way there, he saw Wang Meng coming out of Xiao Feng’s room. Upon seeing Xu Lan, Wang Meng wanted to speak to him but after noticing that Xiao Feng was there, Wang Meng refrained from saying anything.
Later on, Xu Lan asked Wang Meng puzzlingly, “Why did you want to speak to me at that time? You know well that doing so has landed you in trouble.”
Wang Meng cheerfully replied, “I don’t know. I just felt that you and I could get along, so I wanted to get to know you better. Maybe it’s because I feel that you and I are alike.”
By then, of course, Xiao Feng no longer had his guard up against Xu Lan. He was happy to let both of them get along for the sake of doing their part to deal with such a tricky case.
Everyone else had already seen the information – they sorted them and earnestly handed them over to Xu Lan.
