At this moment, Lan Xinxixi, also a police officer, squeezed in with excitement and said to the arrogant woman in front of her, "Are you the legendary police beauty Shen Mengqi? I’m Lan Xinxixi, a police officer like you."
"What, you’re Lan Xinxixi? I’ve heard your name for a long time, but never had the chance to meet you. I didn’t expect to meet under such circumstances today. Hello, I’m Shen Mengqi, not as amazing as you say."
"I’m so happy to meet you, about that last case—"
The two women happily started chatting, completely ignoring Han Xiayang standing nearby. For more chapters visıt novel-fire.ɴet
His fierce gaze never left a certain woman, and if looks could kill, Shen Mengqi would have died a thousand times over.
After some conversation, Shen Mengqi didn’t forget the purpose of her visit here.
Turning to Lan Xinxixi with a slight smile, her gaze unexpectedly landed on An Nan who looked indifferent, and she said something that puzzled everyone, "Have you had enough fun? Want to play a serious game?"
Even knowing many would be infuriated next, An Nan shrugged indifferently at the other party’s look, "Whatever."
Lan Xinxixi, standing closest to the two, watched their familiar interaction and asked in confusion, "Do you know each other?"
The two women with similar auras nodded simultaneously, An Nan habitually chose silence, giving the chance to the other, "We’ve known each other for many years, but haven’t seen each other for many years as well."
Saying this, Shen Mengqi’s eyes filled with excitement.
Lin Mubai stood not far away, for the first time, he didn’t approach An Nan but stood afar. Suddenly, an unfamiliar unease arose in his heart, for the first time he felt he knew so little about this woman, so little that he suddenly felt he didn’t know her at all.
From their conversation, he couldn’t tell that An Nan actually played billiards and wasn’t bad at it. So why did she act that way just now? Was it just to mess with him?
If that’s the reason, he could accept it, but feared it wasn’t.
His brows furrowed ever deeper, the light in his eyes growing colder and sharper. Xi Shaoqi appeared by his side at some point, gently patting his shoulder, sighing silently, "Doesn’t she feel unfamiliar ? I felt the same way back then. I thought I had entered her life, but in an instant, she seemed so far away, beyond a world I could never enter."
Xi Shaoqi’s words hit Lin Mubai’s heart again. Yes, that was exactly how he felt right now. Just when he felt a bit closer, it suddenly became distant again, a feeling that was really uncomfortable.
Amid Lin Mubai’s complex emotions, the two similar women each picked a cue and headed to the billiard table, Lan Xinxixi and her group gathered around, Lin Mubai was also pushed to the table edge by Xi Shaoqi, "Since you chose, don’t overthink. I believe An Nan chose you after careful consideration. She’s someone who wouldn’t bother with you if she wasn’t interested. If she took the initiative to let you be her boyfriend, it only means one thing, she’s moved."
After saying this, Xi Shaoqi didn’t speak again, many things need to be figured out on your own.
