Chapter 224 - Chapter 224: Visit
“Xiaotao, don’t curse me. I’m an upright and timid person. What crime could I be capable of committing?”
Bai Luo shrunk her neck in fear. It would be terrible if she had really committed a crime and was really targeted by Yin Tao. After all, Yin Tao could dig out evidence from anyone, dead or alive.
“Alright, rest early. It’s Saturday tomorrow. Do you have any plans?” Yin Tao lay back on the bed. She had a lot of things to do this weekend.
She had to visit Cheng Fei the next day and attend Yin Nings stage performance the day after next. She had to report to the Wan Corporation the following Monday. Yin Tao planned to prepare a set of clothes that she usually wouldn’t wear. She had to try her best to keep a low profile when she arrived at the Wan Corporation. After all, she had seen Wan Zhe a few times. Yin Tao didn’t want him to recognize her.
“I’m accompanying Su Yan to the hairdressers, and I have to be on standby, as master might need me to go over.”
At the mention of Su Yan, Yin Tao asked Bai Luo curiously, “It seems that you and Su Yan are getting along well. How’s her performance? Is she used to working in the police station?”
Because of Su Ning, Yin Tao was a little concerned about Su Yan. Moreover, Su Yan has had a tough life, and Yin Tao felt sorry for her.
“Su Yan was born to be a police officer.” Bai Luo said to Yin Tao with an exaggerated expression, “Not only has she adapted to the work at the police station, but she’s also excelled in every aspect. Her physical fitness is much better than the other police officers in the police station.’
“Is that so? Then Ji Yu’s attitude towards Su Yan has changed, right? Isn’t he happy to be assigned such a good partner?”
Bai Luo shook her head and said with a bitter smile, ‘The two of them started fighting the moment they met. I couldn’t dissuade them.’
“Su Yan will quarrel with Ji Yu?” Yin Tao really couldn’t imagine what the quiet Su Yan looked like when she was fighting.
“That’s right. They went from arguing to competing in physical fitness. The two of them competed from arm wrestling to push-ups,” Bai Luo said.
“In the end? Was Xiaoji any fight for Su Yan?” Yin Tao knew Ji Yu quite well. Although Ji Yu’s physical fitness wasn’t the best in the police station, he was definitely amongst the better ones. Under normal circumstances, he shouldn’t completely lose to Su Yan.
“Of course not. It made Ji Yu depressed for a while. I don’t know what Su Yan grew up on. Not only is she strong, but she’s also outstanding in many skills. Not many people in the entire police station are her match.”
What Bai Luo said reminded Yin Tao of a conversation she had with Su Yan previously, when she happened to mention her criteria for a life partner. Yin Tao felt that it would be even harder for Su Yan to find a suitable candidate.
“Sometimes, it is good to admit one’s weakness.” Yin Tao smiled and suggested to Bai Luo, “Find time to comfort Xiaoji. He has always been competitive, so he must have felt lousy losing to a girl.”
“Xiaotao, you should comfort him yourself,” Bai Luo hurriedly said. “Right now, the name ‘Su Yan’ is taboo in Ji Yu’s presence. I don’t want to ask for trouble.”
Yin Tao thought of the usually talkative Ji Yu’s aggrieved expression when he met Su Yan and felt a little amused. It seemed like she should talk to Ji Yu. After all, both physical and mental health were very important. If Xiao Ji lost his confidence in front of Su Yan, his work would probably be affected.
Yin Tao and Bai Luo chatted for a while more before the two of them went to bed. The next morning, Yin Tao went to Cheng Fei’s house with Feng Jing at the agreed time. Feng Jing parked his car opposite Cheng Fei’s neighborhood.
“Call me when you’re ready to leave. If you encounter any trouble, press the speed dial. The button on the left connects to my number, and the button on the right connects to the police. There’s also a location tracker built in. You’d better keep it on you.”
Yin Tao took the small and handy device from Feng Jing and was a little surprised that Feng Jing would actually prepare such a thing for her.
“I’ll keep it with me. Brother Feng, are you going to visit your friends later?”
“I’m going to visit my master, he was the one who mentored me when I first joined the police station. He just moved to City A recently. I’ve been looking for an opportunity to visit him.”
Yin Tao was intrigued by what Feng Jing said. She wondered if the master Feng Jing mentioned was the one Bai Luo talked about the night before, the one who made a mistake at work.
“Then let’s contact each other later.” Yin Tao didn’t probe further. She knew that she wouldn’t verify with Feng Jing whether what Bai Luo said was the truth. It didn’t matter as Yin Tao wouldn’t reopen someone else’s wounds..
