Chapter 829: Chapter 829: [Extra] Long Time No See
After leaving the dormitory, Sheng Ning’an returned to her and Xu Weiran’s residence.
Seeing her come back, Xu Weiran took the coat from her hand and hung it up before asking, “How did the investigation go?”
After leaving the bar, he accompanied Sheng Ning’an for a blood test and also accompanied her to report to the police.
Knowing the police would investigate and collect evidence.
However, he couldn’t conveniently go to the girls’ dormitory, so he returned first.
Sheng Ning’an said while changing shoes, “Lacking critical evidence. Although Shi Yue is the most suspicious, without evidence, the police can’t do anything against her.”
Xu Weiran pondered for a moment and said, “If you can’t find evidence of her spiking the drink, then start with the source of the drug. If someone did it, it’s impossible to leave no trace whatsoever.”
“The police should investigate that.”
It’s best to leave professional matters to professional people. In such matters, Uncle Hat is definitely more experienced than them.
After saying this, Sheng Ning’an looked at Xu Weiran and said, “I think we should talk more about Shen Ying’an now.”
Xu Weiran looked at her suspiciously, “Didn’t I already explain to you? We’re just college classmates.”
What else is there to talk about?
“Why didn’t you mention that she also confessed to you?” Sheng Ning’an raised an eyebrow at him.
Xu Weiran: “Really? I don’t remember that!”
Sheng Ning’an reminded him, “You better think carefully before answering.”
She’s not someone easily fooled.
Xu Weiran: “I really don’t remember. There are so many people confessing to me every day. How could I remember each one? And I truly just regarded her as a normal classmate.”
Sheng Ning’an stared at his face for a long time, determining that he didn’t really seem to be lying. Then she took out a photo of the two and asked, “How do you explain this photo then?”
Xu Weiran glanced at the photo, and after thinking carefully, said, “This must’ve been when our group received an award together during an experiment. Oh, right, your Young Uncle was also in our group, but he refused to be in the photo, which is why it’s only the two of us.”
“Are you serious?” Sheng Ning’an looked at him, not seeming like he was lying.
And whether he’s serious or not, she could ask Young Uncle when she goes back.
However, her Young Uncle is only concerned about the experiments, so he might not even remember this kind of thing.
“Of course, it’s true. If I had someone I liked, do you think my mom would still be arranging blind dates for me everywhere?”
It does seem reasonable!
“Alright then, I’ll reluctantly believe you this time.”
Just when Sheng Ning’an thought Shen Ying’an was just someone Shi Yue purposely found to disgust her.
Moreover, since the person has already gone abroad, there’s no need to affect her relationship with Xu Weiran over something that’s just a piece of gossip.
Unexpectedly, they met the person in question.
That day, Sheng Ning’an went to wait for Xu Weiran to finish work, planning to have a western dinner together in the evening. Just as they were about to leave, they saw the director of the institute accompanying a young woman walking out from the institute.
Looking at the young woman, Sheng Ning’an felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
At this moment, the director saw Xu Weiran and immediately waved to him, “Weiran, come over. I want to introduce someone to you. This is Professor Shen Ying’an, who has just returned from abroad and will be working at our institute. By the way, I remember she also graduated from Jing University,” he said, looking towards Shen Ying’an for confirmation.
Then he saw Shen Ying’an smiling in the direction of Xu Weiran, saying, “Director, no need for introductions. Xu Weiran and I are old classmates.”
