Chapter 538: Chapter 529: Jiang Yu Goes Missing
To be honest, even he was quite surprised, never expected that the once so-called "queen of the sea" would actually reflect on herself and admit she was wrong.
After Wang Xing and Jiang Mengting broke up, she regretted it and went looking for him, causing a big scene, which didnāt surprise him at all. He even thought it was typical for someone like her to act that way. But today, it indeed shocked him a bit.
Turns out a person can really change, and itās not just a minor change, but a fundamental one.
Maybe after being hurt herself, she realized how deeply and cruelly she had hurt others back then!
To put it simply, she learned to empathize. Of course, it may seem simple, but achieving empathy is not easy at all. After all, some people are just purely bad and will never regret, even if they eventually face the consequences, theyāll always think itās someone elseās fault, never reflecting on themselves.
Clearly, Jiang Mengting hasnāt reached that hopeless stage yet. Itās possible she might turn into a good girl in the future, but she and Wang Xing just donāt have that fate anymore.
Of course, these are all things to consider as they happen. If they hadnāt broken up, Jiang Mengting definitely wouldnāt have changed as she has now. You could say itās all fate.
"What did you just say to her?"
In the car, Wang Xing was driving his little second-hand car to take him home and asked with a smile.
Although itās a second-hand car, itās actually quite nice. Whether itās the interior or the condition of the car, for a young man in his early twenties to buy such a car through his own efforts is already quite impressive.
Hearing his calm tone, Su Qing knew he wasnāt affected by what happened earlier and had truly let go. Otherwise, he would have felt injustice for Lin Miaomiao.
"Oh, nothing much, just said a few words to enlighten her!" Su Qing replied with a smile.
"Enlighten her? You? What a joke!" Wang Xing instantly showed disbelief three times over.
To this, Su Qing shrugged: "Whatās impossible about it? You might not know, but at the police station, Iām an expert in psychology, and even the psychologists have broken down talking to me!"
Regarding his words, Wang Xing naturally didnāt believe them, thinking his eyes must be suffering cataracts.
"Okay, letās not joke. Honestly, I feel Jiang Mengting has really changed a lot this time."
"Youāre not thinking of persuading us to get back together, are you?"
"Get lost, am I that kind of person? I told her that missing out isnāt a mistake, itās just passed. I also hope you can take this to heart. Since itās passed, you should focus on the person by your side. Iām not saying you should get married right now, but at least give someone the status of a girlfriend, right? Otherwise, what are you two doing now? Itās not good to keep things unclear; itās okay if you waste time yourself, but donāt waste someoneās youth."
Itās true, one shouldnāt affect others because of their own issues. After all, Lin Miaomiao is the one putting in effort right now.
Hearing this, Wang Xing thought for a while and nodded: "Iāll think about it. I used to think we could be together once I passed the civil service exam, but now it seems that itās another year if I want to retake the exam. I canāt just let her wait for nothing."
"Good if you understand. Hurry up and try to give me good news before the year ends. Oh, right, I almost forgot to tell you, I bought an apartment. Itās where Iām living now, along with the next door, totaling 700." Su Qing suddenly said with a smile.
"700... thousand?"
"What else? Can 700 bucks buy an apartment?"
"You bastard, youāre such a scoundrel!!!"
He just likes Wang Xingās frustrated look; it feels so fulfilling. After all, itās like he only has the chance to show off to him. Other people are either not familiar with him or richer than he is, so thereās no chance to show off, and itās actually quite uncomfortable.
He thought that the peaceful life could last for a while longer, but soon he encountered another problem.
The next day, Su Qing rushed to the police station.
"Whatās going on, Captain Zhao? Asking me to come over in such a hurry, is there a big case?" As soon as he entered the office, he saw Old Zhao, Lin Chengcai, and Li Zijun all there.
"No, no, Jiang City has been quite peaceful lately. There might be a lot of small cases, but there havenāt been any major criminal cases. Itās another issue." Old Zhao explained with a smile.
Hearing this, Su Qing felt relieved and rolled his eyes at him: "Whatās the rush then, Captain Zhao? If an outsider heard you on the phone, theyād think the station was under attack or something."
But what Zhao Minghui said next left him absolutely flabbergasted.
"Hmm... pretty much, itās an internal breach!"
"What the heck, thereās a mole?"
Su Qing instantly jolted, jumping up from his seat.
He had grown up watching crime movies like āInfernal Affairsā, āMission: Impossibleā, āDrug Warā, āCold Warā, and the most thrilling parts aside from the shootouts were the undercover battles.
Yet until now, working at the police station, he hadnāt seen any so-called undercover moles. Of course, he knew that the narcotics department definitely had them. It was an external matter, and he wasnāt aware of it because his level wasnāt high enough. Naturally, those secrets wouldnāt be disclosed to him.
But hearing Old Zhao mention a mole in the station made him excited because he felt confident in catching the mole in no time.
"Mole my ass, what are you thinking? Do you think this is a movie?!" Zhao Minghui was amused and helpless seeing his overreaction.
"But didnāt you say itās an internal..." Su Qing argued with frustration.
Unable to bear watching anymore, Lin Chengcai interjected: "Itās about Qiangās situation. Lately, heās been out of sorts, and I heard from Xiao Li that thereās a girl named Jiang Yu who heās quite close with?"
Hearing this, Su Qing instinctively glanced at Li Zijun sitting nearby. Wasnāt this matter already resolved? How could there be follow-ups? Could it be that theyāre together now?
"Well... yes, I heard sheās a high school classmate of Qiang Ge. As for their relationship... Iām not sure, but I do know the girl likes him. Captain Zhao, is Qiang Ge and her..."
Upon this, Zhao Minghui thought for a moment and said: "That Jiang Yu... is missing."
"Missing? What do you mean? Is it that Qiang Ge canāt reach her, or..."
Seeing this, Lin Chengcai spoke up: "Itās not confirmed yet, but her mother... died."
In an instant, Su Qing felt like his head was about to explode, almost frying his CPU. What on earth was going on!
And Zhao Minghui continued to explain: "And the body was found in a rental house, but she canāt be contacted. As you know about Qiangās situation, heās not himself since he found out, and now heās frantically searching."
