Chi Jiao wasn't hungry at first. It wasn't until she smelled the fragrance of breakfast that she realized that her stomach was already rumbling.
She quickly sat down opposite Quan Jue and took a bite of the steaming bun. It was so hot that she exhaled, but she didn't forget to mutter, "It's delicious."
"Little greedy cat, eat slowly. Don't burn yourself." Quan Jue looked at her helplessly as he picked up food for her.
Chi Jiao ate a lot in one go. When she was done with the porridge, she raised her hand to cover her stomach and patted it. Only then did she burp in satisfaction. "I'm so full, Brother Quan. If I continue eating like this, will I become as fat as a little pig?"
Chi Jiao was also a girl. In front of the boy she liked, she still cared a lot about her weight!
When Quan Jue saw her worry, a faint smile quickly appeared in his eyes. "You don't have to be afraid even if you become a little pig. I can still carry you."
"Brother Quan, you're so annoying. I'm not a little pig." Chi Jiao raised her fist and knocked on his body. Then, she lost her strength and wanted to doze off again.
"She Qi should be back in the basement by now. I wonder how he will react when he finds out that Bai Wanxi's corpse has disappeared. "Although Quan Jue said that, he looked like he was enjoying the show.
"If I had known, I would have installed a camera in the basement before leaving. It's a pity that I can't see She Qi's exasperated expression now," Chi Jiao said seriously as she snuggled into his arms.
"Don't worry. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. We can slowly torture him until he goes crazy. Jiaojiao, I'll rest with you for the rest of the morning. We'll go back at noon and have lunch with Uncle and my mother, "Quan Jue suggested.
Chi Jiao was like an obedient little lamb. As she spoke, she was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes. She nodded and shrank into his arms.
Quan Jue's smile deepened. He carried her and lay down on the sofa to rest.
About two hours later.
Zhan Tingting brought Huo Chen all the way to Chi Jiao's office.
Zhan Tingting had an extremely bright smile on her face as she looked at Huo Chen and said, "Officer Huo, our boss is inside. If you need anything, you can knock on the door and look for her directly."
Huo Chen also returned a kind smile. He nodded and thanked Zhan Tingting, "Thank you. I can go in by myself. Thank you for your help."
Zhan Tingting waved her hand calmly before bidding farewell to Huo Chen and leaving.
Huo Chen stood outside Chi Jiao's office, unable to suppress his excitement. He raised his hand and knocked on the door. "Miss Chi, it's me, Huo Chen."
With that, Huo Chen saw that the office door wasn't locked, so he opened the door and poked his head in. "Miss Chi …"
Huo Chen's words froze on his lips. He stood outside the door and saw a scene that he would never forget.
Quan Jue was lying on the sofa with Chi Jiao in his arms. It was obvious that the two of them had rested for some time. They looked so lovey-dovey.
Huo Chen felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He stood there in a daze, not knowing how to react.
Quan Jue looked up at Huo Chen and asked calmly, "Officer Huo, how long do you plan to keep watch?"
Only then did Huo Chen react. He took a step back and slammed the office door shut.
