"Did you work all night last night?" Ye Zi frowned. She looked at Lin Yan, whose eyes were slightly red and had dark circles under his eyes. She couldn't help but feel a little distressed. Flash Dance Network
Lin Yan smiled lightly, sat up, and intimately rubbed against Ye Zi's body. He stretched his body, and his bones made a crisp sound. "I'm going to acquire two companies soon, and I need to make an offer."
Ye Zi didn't know what Lin Yan did for a living. In her impression, Lin Yan was only constantly acquiring other companies in Binhai City.
She didn't know much about it, but looking at the thick stack of documents on the coffee table, Ye Zi knew that Lin Yan must have been exhausted last night. "You go wash up. I'll make breakfast today."
"You?" Lin Yan frowned slightly and looked at Ye Zi with a smile. It seemed that he didn't trust her cooking skills.
Ye Zi glared at Lin Yan. "Don't look down on me."
She raised her sharp chin, got up, and walked toward the kitchen. After a while, two bowls of instant noodles were placed in front of Lin Yan. "Laotan pickled cabbage and braised beef, which one do you want?"
"Your cooking skills …" Lin Yan was quite shocked. He touched his angular chin. It seemed that Ye Zi had been busy for a long time, and only made two bowls of instant noodles. Lin Yan's lips twitched slightly, but he still made a choice between laotan pickled cabbage and braised beef.
After breakfast, Lin Yan sent Ye Zi to the detective agency. Ye Zi just got out of the car and kissed Lin Yan goodbye. When she was about to enter the detective agency, someone suddenly patted her shoulder from behind. Ye Zi turned her head, and a beautiful face was reflected in Ye Zi's eyes.
It had only been a day, but Ye Zi still remembered her. To Look Around's classmate, Li Xue.
Although the late autumn weather was a bit chilly, it wasn't like Li Xue, who was wearing a thick turtleneck sweater and dark blue jeans. It was very different from the office lady's suit yesterday.
Li Xue's lips showed a shallow smile, and she nodded to Ye Zi. "Miss, hello. To Look Around, does she work here?"
Obviously, Li Xue didn't remember Ye Zi. Ye Zi smiled and said politely, "That's right." She looked at her watch, and it wasn't time yet. "But it's not time yet. You can go in and wait for her."
As Ye Zi spoke, she opened the door of the detective agency and welcomed Li Xue inside. She was Gu Panpan's classmate. Out of courtesy, Ye Zi poured her a cup of coffee.
But Li Xue tactfully declined, "Sorry, I only drink water."
Ye Zi raised her eyebrows slightly, but she still maintained the smile on her face. She brought the coffee into her office and then brought a bottle of mineral water for Li Xue.
"Thank you." Li Xue nodded at Ye Zi.
Ye Zi smiled back. There were still fifteen minutes before work. To Look Around, Li Xue was rarely late, so she should be here soon. Ye Zi did not say anything to Li Xue. She went straight to her office and flipped through the files of the recent cases.
When she picked up the file of Du Weiwei's kidnapping case, a piece of paper fell out.
Ye Zi squatted down and picked up the piece of paper.
"Hey, have you finally realized?"
The content was written on the piece of paper.
Ye Zi frowned slightly. Du Weiwei's file was organized by Jian Xia. She was sitting next to Jian Xia at the time and saw Jian Xia put the file into the filing cabinet. She did not remember that Jian Xia had ever let go of this piece of paper.
Hey, have you finally realized it?
What have you discovered?
Who discovered it?
Just as Ye Zi was feeling puzzled, she heard the sound of high heels. She turned around and saw Li Xue standing at the door.
She stood up and asked in a gentle voice, "Miss Li, what's the matter?"
Li Jia looked at the time on her phone. "I can't wait. I'm going to be late for work."
Ye Zi looked up at the quartz clock on the wall. "Panpan should be soon …"
Before she could finish speaking, To Look Around pushed the door open and entered. She was humming a song and seemed to be in a good mood. She took off her headphones and saw Ye Zi and Li Xue.
To Look Around was startled. She did not expect Li Xue to come looking for her. She hurried over and greeted her. "Xiao Xue, why are you here?"
Li Xue said, "I wanted to see you, but now I have to go back to work. Panpan, I'll come and see you another day."
"Xiao Xue …"
To Look Around wanted to say something, but Li Xue walked past her and quickly walked toward the door. She did not look back and walked quickly and impatiently, as if she was about to miss the bus.
To Look Around frowned and scratched her head in confusion. She turned to look at Ye Zi. "What's wrong with her?"
Ye Zi shrugged and shook her head.
She really did not know what was wrong with Li Xue.
Ye Zi narrowed her eyes and looked at the piece of paper in her hand. She had never seen the handwriting on this piece of paper before. This piece of paper …
"What are you looking at?" Jian Xia wrapped her arms around Ye Zi's shoulders from behind.
Ye Zi was startled and glanced sideways at Jian Xia. There was no trace of fear in her eyes. Her elegant brows furrowed into a deep crease. She smoothed out her chest and said, "Please, scaring people will scare people to death."
Jian Xia stuck out her tongue mischievously and said, "Sorry."
Ye Zi's heart was beating very fast. The "BAM BAM" sound kept echoing in her ears. Her heart felt like it was going to jump out of her throat.
She walked to the desk and picked up the cup of coffee. She gulped it down in big mouthfuls. Only then did she feel that her heart was not beating so fast.
"Xiaozi, what's wrong?" Jian Xia frowned and slowly walked over to her.
Ye Zi handed the piece of paper in her hand to Jian Xia and said in a low voice, "I saw this piece of paper in Du Weiwei's kidnapping case file. Du Weiwei's case was closed by you. Did you put it in there?"
Jian Xia took it and looked at the piece of paper. She shook her head slightly and said, "This is not my handwriting at all."
Ye Zi had seen Jian Xia's handwriting before. Compared to this, her handwriting was more elegant.
She could not help but think back to the few books that she had lost at home that day. Every word in the book title was connected together — Hello, Ye Zi.
Could it be …
Ye Zi bit her lower lip and panicked for a moment.
Jian Xia waved her hand in front of Ye Zi and asked with a frown, "Xiaozi, what's wrong with you?"
Ye Zi came back to her senses and shook her head. "Nothing. Maybe I accidentally sneaked in during the renovation."
That was what she told herself in her heart. It was the only reason that could make her relax a little.
It was getting late, and the detective agency was open for business.
Outside the window, the dark clouds were so dense that they seemed to be within reach. The damp smell in the air was getting stronger and stronger. It was going to rain soon. After this rain, it would be cold. To Look Around, Ye Zi leaned against the door frame and looked at the busy street.
Drip … Drip …
Raindrops fell from the sky like soybeans. To Look Around stretched out her hand to catch the raindrops. She turned her head and shouted to the detective agency that no one was interested in, "It's raining. Time to collect the clothes."
Ye Zi came over with a cup of hot coffee. The coffee cup in her hand was steaming. She took a sip of the coffee and frowned. She did not like this kind of weather, especially the cold autumn rain.
"Boss, it seems that there will be no business today." To Look Around smiled embarrassedly and looked up at Ye Zi.
Yes, there would be very few customers on such a day.
Ye Zi stuffed the coffee cup into To Look Around's hand and said, "Believe it or not, I'll let you go to the streets to solicit customers."
"Solicit customers?!" To Look Around's lips twitched slightly. This word, no matter how she heard it, sounded so awkward.
Ye Zi was too lazy to bicker with her. She yawned and turned to go back to the office.
"Boss."
To Look Around suddenly exclaimed. Ye Zi frowned. When she turned her head, she saw Li Xue run out of the detective agency. Because of the rain, her face was as pale as a piece of white paper. On the left side of her face, there was a red and swollen palm print. The white turtleneck sweater she was wearing was stained with demonic and dazzling blood.
Ye Zi's brows furrowed even more. She pulled out an umbrella from the door and quickly ran towards Li Xue. She opened the umbrella for Li Xue and welcomed her into the door.
"Xiao Xue, you …"
Ye Zi glanced sideways at To Look Around, who was just about to speak. She quickly stopped and took a towel for Li Xue.
Li Xue looked like she was scared silly. She sat on the chair and trembled. Ye Zi took a set of clean clothes for Li Xue and handed it to her. "Change your clothes first. You'll catch a cold easily."
Li Xue acted like she didn't hear Ye Zi's words. Her hands were clenched tightly and she trembled endlessly. Her frightened look made it seem like she had just killed someone.
She lowered her head as big drops of tears rolled down her cheeks. Occasionally, she would glance at Gu Panpan before quickly lowering her eyes again.
Ye Zi could see that she was very nervous and scared.
She poured a cup of hot water for Li Xue and stuffed it into her hands. "No matter what happened, you have to calm down first."
Li Xue finally came back to her senses. When she looked up, she hugged To Look Around and burst into tears.
To Look Around also froze. She didn't know what to do and allowed Li Xue to hug her. "Xiao Xue, what happened to you?"
Li Xue slowly raised her head. Her tears blurred her vision. She wiped them away and sobbed. "I just … just … stabbed someone with a knife!"
To Look Around suddenly frowned. She looked at Ye Zi with some fear in her eyes. Her gaze seemed to be asking Ye Zi what she should do now.
Ye Zi bent down and squatted down. Her clear eyes were clean and beautiful. She looked at Li Xue without blinking. She wiped Li Xue's hair and said in a gentle and soothing voice, "Did he hit you again?"
When Li Xue heard Ye Zi's words, her body suddenly trembled. Her eyes shrunk and she bit her lower lip. Ye Zi could clearly see blood flowing from the corner of her mouth.
