"Xiao Ning, be strong. You should learn from Anâan not to panic when facing situations."
Sheng Ning wiped her tears again, "Iâm just hopeless, what can I do?" She wasnât usually someone who cried easily; she didnât know why she had become so sentimental lately.
"Bring all the involved parties back to the police station." Zhao Changqi nodded apologetically to Xu Qigang.
He supported the person and exited the scene.
Anâan, who was already in handcuffs and wearing Sheng Ningâs coat, was being escorted to the car by two policemen. As she passed them, she said coldly, "Sister, call my mom and tell her I killed someone, I killed Han Xiaoqiu."
The icy tone and attitude deepened the doubts in Xu Qigangâs heart.
"Okay, Iâll call right away." Sheng Ning nodded, worriedly reminding her, "Donât...donât worry, Iâll save you. I will definitely save you."
Anâan didnât say a word, bowed her head, and was taken away in the police car.
"Xiao Ning, didnât you notice something off about Anâan?" Xu Qigang finally voiced his doubts.
"It...it seems a bit off, but in a situation like this, being off is normal, right?"
Xu Qigang contemplated for a moment and didnât continue the topic, "Donât be sad anymore, now go call Dad and Mom!"
"How...how do I explain it to Mom? I promised her I would take good care of Anâan, and yet...this happened." Sheng Ning was almost overwhelmed by her guilt.
"Itâs all Han Xiaoqiuâs fault, they tried to harm first."
"Yes! Anâan was just acting in self-defense, donât worry, itâll be fine."
"Really?"
Xu Qigang nodded seriously, "Really!"
At the same time, Qin Yue was at the train station to pick someone up. His second sister had been clamoring to see him for a long time, but hadnât gotten a leave of absence before, and their parents didnât agree. Now that she finally got approval, it really troubled him.
She wasnât there to see him, but clearly to scout out the situation.
Qin Yueâs second sister, Qin Shuang, was a bright and beautiful woman, also working for the union as a correspondent. Wearing a formal work uniform, she stood out as she walked out from the crowd.
Qin Yue spotted her right away and sat in his chair without moving.
"What? You donât seem happy to see your second sister?" Qin Shuang looked down at her brother, "You look thinner, have you not been eating well?"
"No such thing?" He scoffed, "Hurry up, I have class to attend."
"Attending classes? I heard youâve been skipping classes to follow some girl around all day?"
"Thatâs not following around; thatâs pursuing." Qin Yue rolled his eyes at his sister and corrected her, "And, sheâs not just some girl; sheâs your future sister-in-law."
"At first, when we heard you were serious, we didnât believe it, but now it seems true."
"So youâre here this time just for this matter?" Qin Yue stood up, his tall stature instantly shifting the dynamics between the two. Qin Shuang had been looking down initially, but now had to tilt her head up.
"If it was just for fun, it doesnât matter, but if youâre serious, itâs not okay. That girl isnât a match for you."
"Itâs not that sheâs not a match for me, itâs that Iâm not a match for her."
"Just her?" Qin Shuang couldnât help but sneer. Her brother was the hope of the Qin Family, a deputy director of the Southern Union Special Action Department; who wouldnât be a match?
"Sheâs outstanding, extremely, extraordinarily outstanding. Even if sheâs a penniless, dull village girl, as long as Iâve set my eyes on her, sheâs better than anyone else."
