She reached out and pushed Tang Si: "You’re pressing against ."
"Don’t move."
Song Yi looked at him: "I’ve noticed, you’re not at all worried about having to go to work with your clothes all rumpled."
"What’s there to be scared of?" Tang Si chuckled, "Even if they see it, who would dare say a word to ?"
"Oh, Big Boss Tang is really sothing." Song Yi giggled, "If you’re going on field duty, be careful."
She returned to a serious and earnest expression, reaching out to tidy his clothes: "Go on, I’ll head back by myself. No matter when, I’ll always be waiting for you at ho."
Though she said that, Song Yi’s hand clung to Tang Si’s clothes and didn’t let go.
To say she could easily part with him, that was a lie.
She’s just a young girl experiencing her first love; what girl wouldn’t want her boyfriend by her side all the ti?
Tang Si was naturally sensitive and, of course, noticed Song Yi’s little gestures.
He sighed softly: "Go ho and wait for ."
"I’ll have Ningxia Chuan take you back first."
Song Yi thought for a mont and agreed.
"Then I’ll head to the bathroom first."
...
As Song Yi just ca out of the bathroom, she t Lu Yu while washing her hands.
The two stood side by side washing their hands. After Lu Yu finished, still wearing a white coat, she flicked the water off her hands, glanced at Song Yi, and gently spoke: "What’s it like dating Brother Si?"
"Doesn’t he feel difficult to get along with?" She spoke with a teasing note, as if exchanging small talk with Song Yi.
Song Yi turned off the faucet, pulled out a paper towel to dry her hands leisurely, without answering Lu Yu.
Only after calmly drying her hands and tossing the paper into the trash did she lift her eyes to look at Lu Yu.
She lightly patted her hand, then tucked both hands into her pockets, looking lazily seductive at Lu Yu: "Calling him Brother Si so affectionately, you must’ve liked him for quite a while, huh?"
Song Yi was born with a natural pride and elegance.
Standing there, she calmly and confidently asked Lu Yu this question.
Lu Yu felt a sense of inferiority rise up from within her.
Unlike Song Yi, who had such a strong and flamboyant presence and knew when to hold back or flaunt it.
Just like she did when she walked in with Tang Si and allocated the seats, and Song Yi hadn’t said a word or even shown any displeasure.
She knew restraint and remained calm, after all, it was a formal occasion.
But now, Song Yi was dazzlingly bold.
"I always thought Brother Si would find soone refined and gentle. Didn’t expect it to be soone like Miss Song."
Song Yi raised an eyebrow, smiling: "What kind of person am I?"
"You seem... very enchanting, very charming," Lu Yu spoke with these adjectives.
But Song Yi wasn’t just that, she was gentle, soft, with delicate features not sharp or aggressive, yet undeniably exquisite.
The allure was in those fox-like eyes, every smile and frown was enchanting, as if it seeped from her bones.
Lu Yu frowned, feeling she was being led astray by Song Yi.
"What I an is, I’ve known Brother Si for many years and worked with him for many years, so I understand him quite well."
"We all thought he wouldn’t find a girlfriend, he’s so cold-blooded. I just feel like, is he just looking for soone for amusent?"
"I an no offense, just wanted to say, whether you’re serious or not, don’t get too deep. We who’ve worked with Brother Si for long know he’s soone who can let go decisively, no matter how important sothing seems to others."
"He’s even soone who can disregard his own life."
"I’m saying this because I don’t want a nice girl like you to end up heartbroken over Brother Si. This being his first relationship, maybe it just feels novel to him."
"Oh~" Song Yi burst into laughter: "Thank you for your concern."
"But, have you heard a saying?"
"What?"
"It’s better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all," Song Yi said, "I’m approaching this relationship with that mindset."
She chuckled and added, "But now I don’t feel that way anymore. Now I just want it to last forever."
"Thanks for the reminder." Song Yi continued, "Since you’re so kind-hearted, let give you so advice: If you et soone you like, don’t hold back, just go for it."
"Waiting for soone who doesn’t like you to pursue you is unrealistic, like Tang Si; if you’re not proactive, you won’t catch him."
She patted Lu Yu’s shoulder, "When you’re busy, focus more on work, don’t waste ti worrying about trivial matters. Otherwise, people might think Tang Si is your real brother."
Lu Yu was left speechless.
This woman’s elegance and charm were undeniable, but her words carried a sting, aiming precisely where it hurt the most.
After speaking, Song Yi turned and left, no longer concerning herself with Lu Yu.
In the end, it was Ningxia Chuan who took Song Yi back.
...
On the other side of things.
Tang Si entered the criminal investigation team office.
Everyone inside was busy with Chang Yue’s case.
Tang Si clapped his hands lightly: "I need a couple of you to co with to check the surveillance from the building opposite Night Entertainnt."
"Boss, we already checked that footage on the day and found nothing unusual," Zhou Liang said.
"Check it again," Tang Si said, "These things need to be repeatedly sifted through."
Going to review surveillance footage was truly a hassle.
Zhou Liang and others in the office instantly wore gloomy expressions, reluctant to speak.
Even so, they were eventually selected to go retrieve the footage with two other team mbers.
Opposite Night Entertainnt was a comrcial building.
Inside the building’s surveillance room, Tang Si sat in the middle, seriously examining the footage in front of him.
Beside him, Zhou Liang and two other team mbers were sluggish, relatively exhausted lately.
Tang Si, with a faint and drawling tone, said: "Stay focused. Don’t just get excited watching movies; you need to thoroughly check this footage too."
"...Boss," Zhou Liang cheerfully turned to him, "You say that, but aren’t we all n here? Have you never felt that kind of excitent?"
As he spoke, he raised an eyebrow mischievously at Tang Si.
And beneath Zhou Liang’s hand, he had already opened up the chat with Song Yi, pressing the voice ssage, just waiting for Tang Si to speak.
Tang Si didn’t notice, lazily glancing at Zhou Liang with a smile, speaking with a mischievously bold tone: "I have a girlfriend, what’s there to be excited about? Do I need to watch that?"
With these words, Zhou Liang’s voice ssage was sent out.
He knew, given his boss’s character, he had to be flashy.
So flashy, he needed to be properly put in his place.
"Cough..." Zhou Liang said, "You’re discriminating against us single dogs! Whatever, let’s just watch the footage!"
Ti passed slowly, second by second.
"Ding—" Tang Si’s phone suddenly chid, a new WeChat ssage.
Zhou Liang sneaked a glance.
It was from Song Yi.
