In the car.
The atmosphere was unbearably oppressive.
"Ding—" Soone’s phone rang at that mont.
Kash glanced at the text ssage.
He looked at the rear-view mirror, saw that Gu Nanjiu’s expression wasn’t too bad, and then cautiously said, "Master Jiu, the T Organization agreed to et with us."
Gu Nanjiu rested his chin on one hand while looking at sothing on his phone.
Upon hearing Kash’s words, he looked up and sneered, "Set up a ti with them!"
Hearing the brief conversation, Shen Su, who was sitting nearby, seed to lift his eyelids, his gaze flickering slightly.
But a second later he cald down, so quiet that he had no presence, making it difficult for anyone to focus even a bit on him...
...
Apartnt.
Song Yi didn’t go to a hospital to check the wound on her neck but instead sought out Fu Jingsheng.
Finding Fu Jingsheng was easier and more convenient than going to the hospital.
"Are you feeling a bit sleepy? Why did you faint out of nowhere?" Fu Jingsheng bandaged Song Yi’s neck.
He stared at Song Yi and asked.
He asked, knowing full well the answer.
It was too hard to pretend; Song Yi was always insightful, and if she caught onto sothing, even several heads wouldn’t be enough for her to bash.
Song Yi leaned against the sofa, black strands of hair covering most of her face, the light shining on her slender body and making her face appear sowhat pale.
A bloodless pale, she looked unwell ntally.
When she heard his words, she faintly lifted her eyelids, tiredly rubbed her brow, her voice a bit hoarse: "Maybe a little, probably just too tired lately."
"Still feeling like throwing up?" Fu Jingsheng continued: "Lately it seems like your body’s indeed a bit weak. Do you want to get it checked at a hospital?"
He carefully chose his words: "To see if you are, pregnant?"
Originally, Song Yi was lethargic and listless.
Upon hearing this, it was like a thunderbolt out of the blue; her eyes widened instantly: "Pregnant?"
A bit incredible, unbelieving.
Pregnant?
Having a child?
These thoughts kept swirling in her mind, and having a baby was a very distant concept in Song Yi’s mind.
She always thought of herself as still a young maiden.
"Really, look at your recent reactions, don’t they really seem like it?" Fu Jingsheng said. "Think back, is there any possibility...?"
Song Yi really fell into deep thought.
Fu Jingsheng: "...!"
Sige is truly formidable.
Thinking they were together was one thing; but damn, he’d even gone all the way?!
It seed, more than once!
Song Yi frowned, recalling the most recent ti with Tang Si...
Her heart suddenly skipped a beat, glaring fox-eyes looking at Fu Jingsheng.
Fu Jingsheng licked his lips: "Why are you looking at like that, I’m a bit scared."
"Is there really that possibility?"
Song Yi’s voice was sowhat ethereal, particularly unreal: "Real...really?"
Her eyes, for so reason, suddenly beca sore and visibly reddened.
A mist welled up in her eyes.
Her hand suddenly reached out to touch her flat belly, her heart pounding.
Really pregnant? And with Tang Si’s child.
Tang Si’s child.
She didn’t know why, but she felt like crying a little.
Perhaps out of happiness, excitent, disbelief.
It was hers and Tang Si’s, after all.
Fu Jingsheng saw her like this and panicked: "Don’t, don’t cry."
"Shall we buy a test kit to check?" Fu Jingsheng asked.
Song Yi: "Can’t you just check the pulse?"
Fu Jingsheng: "If it’s not 40 days yet, I can’t tell, and besides, I’m not an obstetrician, I’m just a researcher."
Song Yi wiped her moist eyelashes with the back of her hand: "And there are pregnancy reactions even if it’s not 40 days?
Fu Jingsheng: "...It seems... this..."
Song Yi kicked Fu Jingsheng: "Quack doctor."
She and Tang Si had only known each other for just over two months; it hadn’t been long since they got together, let alone the fact that the first ti wasn’t even over a month ago.
Even if it hit the spot, it hadn’t been very long, which would be too far-fetched.
Song Yi rubbed her temples and exhaled.
She must have been too busy and tired lately, or how could she feel like she and Tang Si have been married for years?
Fu Jingsheng rubbed his leg that Song Yi had kicked, observing that despite her violence, she seed fine.
He chuckled: "There’s nothing wrong with getting it checked."
Song Yi rolled her eyes: "Get lost, will you?"
Thinking about it now, pregnancy should be impossible.
She chatted briefly with Fu Jingsheng and sent him away.
...
In the vast room, it was suddenly just her.
She curled up on the sofa, staring at her phone like a child left behind with no ho.
What’s Tang Si busy with?
He promised to pursue her, and here she was busy worrying about his condition, yet there was no news from him at all.
Is this how you pursue soone?
She pursed her lips, wanting to call or text him, but in the end, decided against it.
She needed to hold her ground.
In the end, she thought about it and sent Gu Chu a ssage.
"Can we et tomorrow?" Song Yi: "I have so free ti lately."
Gu Chu quickly replied: "Apologies, Miss Song, but I’m quite busy recently. If you’re in a hurry, you might want to find soone else."
Song Yi stared at the ssage, frowning.
"I can co to you myself tomorrow, you wouldn’t have to co out."
There was no further reply.
Song Yi exhaled, looking up at the ceiling, closing her eyes, keeping calm...
For the future of her and Tang Si.
Song Yi finally, dragging her weary body, got up to wash up and slept.
...
The next day.
Song Yi woke up especially early. She had been sleeping little lately, probably because she had issues weighing on her mind and couldn’t sleep well.
She went out first thing in the morning to find Gu Chu.
This matter had to be sorted out; if it was no good, she’d need to find another psychologist for Tang Si.
Right now her primary goal was to cure Tang Si.
Driving quickly, she reached Gu Chu’s place.
She walked in like she knew the place, ready to knock on the door.
"Alright, I got it, Gu Nanjiu, right?" Gu Chu was on the phone, back to the door, and Song Yi suddenly stopped in her tracks, pressing her back against the wall.
She held her breath and listened.
"Mm, he won’t survive our ga."
"Okay, I understand, yep, that’s it."
She’s... planning to kill Gu Nanjiu?
Who is she?
Song Yi’s mind went blank; besides, wasn’t Gu Nanjiu in prison? Was she planning to kill him in prison?
"Tap, tap, tap—" Gu Chu’s footsteps headed out.
Song Yi took a deep breath, imdiately hiding in the nearby bushes, wisely putting her phone on silent.
In the bushes, she watched with wide eyes as Gu Chu strode, wiping a handgun.
She even humd a little tune.
Once Gu Chu was far enough away, Song Yi quickly bowed her head to inform Tang Si of the situation.
When WeChat hadn’t worked, she dialed a number.
But the phone was off.
She frowned, standing up from the bushes, legs weak, almost falling, holding onto the wall firmly, only then realizing how rapid her breath was.
The hand holding her phone shook a bit as well.
She closed her eyes, mind buzzing.
Only relieved she’d gotten out of the car just to stretch her legs and parked it quite far off so Gu Chu wouldn’t see it.
...
Song Yi soon arrived at the police station.
She inquired about Tang Si’s whereabouts.
The guard stared at Song Yi: "Tang Si? The captain of the first criminal investigation team?"
"Yes, that’s right." Song Yi: "I have sothing urgent for him. His phone is unreachable; please help call him."
"How could you reach him?" The guard looked at her: "He died in the line of duty."
