Chapter 347: Vacation
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“I am taking leave next week, so I have to settle the work at hand. Otherwise, I’ll feel bad leaving so much mess for Captain Chen.”
Although Feng Jing had leave, if not for the Old Master pressing him this time, he wouldn’t have been able to go back. There were a lot of things to do in the police station, and Feng Jing couldn’t find time at all.
“Can I help?” Yin Tao was worried about Feng Jing’s health when she saw that he was always staying up late.
“It’s fine. I can do it myself. Rest early. I’ll bring you to the Ji family tomorrow. We can’t let this case go just like that.”
Feng Jing knew that he would not be able to obtain any useful information from the people who abducted Yin Tao. However, letting Ji Wei off just like that was still a relatively big threat to Yin Tao.
“Are we going tomorrow?” Yin Tao didn’t expect Feng Jing to be so anxious. She had planned to choose a birthday gift for him tomorrow.
“Do you have other arrangements?” Feng Jing asked.
Yin Tao shook her head and explained to Feng Jing, “No, it seems we can’t pin my abduction on Ji Wei for the time being. What are we going to say when we go tomorrow?”
“Didn’t Ji Wei have a conflict with you and Zhang Rui in the mall? We can only use this as an excuse to see if we can make her tell the truth.”
Yin Tao nodded thoughtfully. Previously, she had planned to go to the Ji Family to quarrel with Ji Wei. When dealing with a domineering woman like Ji Wei, blindly enduring would only make the other party more brazen. However, with Feng Jing around, the matter should be easier to resolve.
As soon as she returned to the dormitory, Yin Tao smelled barbecue.
“Xiaotao, why are you back? Didn’t you leave with Captain Feng?” Bai Luo looked at Yin Tao in bewilderment as she ate the meat skewers in her hand.
“Ah ha! Did you secretly buy so much delicious food because you thought I wouldn’t be coming back?”
Bai Luo smiled in embarrassment. She picked up a meat skewer and handed it to Yin Tao. “No, it’s just that I ate a light meal in the canteen and wanted to have something better.”
“Does eating these count as improving your diet?” Yin Tao took a bite of the meat skewers and took out her phone to open the takeout interface. “I’ll order some more food for you.”
“Xiaotao, you’re the best!” After saying that, Bai Luo pounced on Yin Tao and tried to kiss her with her oily lips.
Yin Tao tried her best to avoid Bai Luo. She took out a few pieces of napkins and threw them to her. “Wipe your mouth first. Didn’t you want to lose weight? Is it really alright to eat so much at this time?”
“Don’t be a killjoy. Let’s talk after this meal.” Bai Luo smiled, as if she had forgotten everything while eating.
“Xiaotao, Captain Feng will be on leave next week. Will you be returning to the dormitory? If I work too late in the future, I’ll rest at the police station. It won’t affect your sleep.”
When she heard Bai Luo mention the matter of her leave, Yin Tao didn’t know how to explain it to her. If she directly said that she was going home with Feng Jing, then Bai Luo would definitely misunderstand. She didn’t know about Feng Ya after all.
“You should return to the dormitory as usual. I plan to take my annual leave next week…”
“What? Xiaotao, don’t tell me you’re going back with Captain Feng to meet his parents?” Bai Luo looked like she had heard big news as she stared at Yin Tao curiously.
“I’m taking my annual leave. It’s not easy for me to be abducted alright! I’ll take this opportunity to rest.”
Yin Tao couldn’t find a suitable excuse, but to be honest, it was definitely impossible. With Bai Luo’s personality, if she told her, everyone in the police station would know the next day.
“That’s true. You should rest well.” Bai Luo seemed to have suddenly thought of something. She smiled and said to Yin Tao, “But isn’t it too easy for others to misunderstand that you’re on leave with Captain Feng?”
Bai Luo’s words further confirmed Yin Tao’s intention not to tell the truth. She said to Bai Luo helplessly, “I’ll be thanking the heavens if you don’t go out and spout nonsense.”
“Don’t worry, I’m not the type who gossips about others.” Bai Luo wiped her mouth and took a sip of soda before continuing to say to Yin Tao, “Do you know that when Su Yan and Ji Yu went on a mission yesterday, and the two of them almost fought?”
Only then did Yin Tao realize how unreliable Bai Luo was. She helplessly echoed her and asked, “What’s the matter again? Haven’t they been doing well recently?”
“That’s just because they appear to get along, but in actual fact, they dislike each other.”
“How do you know?” Yin Tao looked at Bai Luo in confusion. She felt that she was even more imaginative than a detective..
