Chapter 50: Tan Jiao 08 (1)
I never thought I could detect a hint of something interesting from this somber and stressful situation.
It all started that night when I was at the police station, waiting in a questioning room for my turn while feeling tired yet enthusiastic. From time to time, my mind would have thoughts about Wu Yu, worrying about how he was doing. However, my worries subsided when I recalled his ability to tackle difficult situations.
Right then, the door got pushed open, and I saw Shen Shiyan talking on the phone. His voice barely made its way into the room.
Yes, shes with me. Her phone has been seized, so you wont be able to reach her. Dont worry, miss Zhou, shes fine.
Miss Zhou? Does he know another female?
... We wont interrogate her Of course not. Miss Zhou, youre overly concerned. Tan Jiao is also my friend.
Then it struck me that Miss Zhou meant Zhung Yu. Oh my, how did she get to Shen Shiyan?
Sleep? I need to check whether our station allows Its fine, you dont need to come over Alright. I promise you that Ill make arrangements for her to sleep. Food? Fine, Ill make arrangements for that too. Ill hang up now.
Initially, I felt somewhat moved by how Zhuang Yu had called up to care about me. However, shock immediately replaced those feelings when I saw a subtle and helpless smile develop on Shen Shiyans lips after he ended the call.
Theres something going on between them. With my experience from writing countless romance novels, I immediately picked up on the subtle changes that had developed on Shen Shiyans face. However, this matter between them still needed nurturing before it could develop into anything substantial.
Shen Shiyan fancies Zhuang Yu? Perhaps Shen Shiyan, this dull monk, cannot resist the temptations of a sexy succubus. This was possible given Zhuang Yus mature and alluring appearance.
As for Zhuang Yu taking an interest in him, that was difficult to say. Zhuang Yu is straightforward and aggressive at times. Would she fancy a dull and slow guy like Shen Shiyan? Would such an easy prey excite goddess Zhuang Yu?
When Shen Shiyan and another officer finally entered the room, I put on a subtle smile containing profound contentment and asked him before he said anything, Hey, did you talk to my friend Zhuang Yu just now?
A look of surprise covered Shen Shiyans face before he quickly suppressed it, putting on an impassive professional look. Miss Tan Jiao, please sit properly. Well begin our questioning.
Oh, okay.
Their questioning was within my expectationsdetailed and comprehensive. However, I was able to answer everything smoothly with a clear conscience, as I did nothing wrong.
Their questioning ended around dawn. As expected, Shen Shiyan prepared a canvas chair for me to rest on. After a few hours of light sleep, he brought me my favorite food, Xiaolongbao.
Zhuang Yu must have told him about this.
While having my meal, I would look at him with occasional meaningful smiles.
Tan Jiao, what are you so happy about? he asked with a dash of redness on his face.
Nothing much. I just suddenly thought about my good friend Zhou Yu. The thought of her makes me happy.
Shen Shiyan relaxed slightly after hearing that. Shes still a college student, right? You two sure seem close.
I munched on a Xiaolongbao and answered, Yeah. I should let you know that shes pretty popular in school, and she has a handful of admirers interested in her. So, who knows how things will go.
I must say, I was quite impressed with my ability to reuse this sentence that Zhuang Yu said to Wu Yu.
Shen Shiyan took a quick glance at me but said nothing. He probably did not know how to respond to that.
My somewhat elated mood lasted until Shen Shiyan accompanied me out the door of the police station when I looked around but did not see Wu Yu.
They told me he had left. I figured that he had probably felt extremely tired after all that commotion. Plus, there was no reason compelling him to wait for me.
