Dabao sent over something that resembled a record of GPS locations. It was a list of the places Feng Minsheng had visited.
From the record, Feng Minsheng had headed in the direction of the city’s east side after they split ways outside the restaurant just now. He had stayed at a place for very long before he left.
It seemed to be a hotel near Cheng Xiangyun’s house.
He must have stayed there on a long term basis for me. But what exactly is his motive?
Dabao had also sent Feng Minsheng’s phone call record to her. He had called three numbers frequently, and one of the calls was made immediately after they split ways.
Ning Ran felt an urge to dial the number to find out who the mysterious caller was, but decided against it as it would be too dangerous.
I can’t rush this matter. I have to take it slow.
…
The next afternoon, Qin Lan received a call informing her that Nan Chen was coming.
Thinking back, Master Chen has not come for a long time. I wonder if he was too busy or he just doesn’t need any psychological counselling anymore.
Qin Lan rushed to prepare for his visit. First, she had her assistant cancel all her appointments to ensure that no one would see Nan Chen in her clinic.
Next, she changed her reclining patient chair to a new one. Nan Chen had always disliked it, claiming that her chair was too dirty as it was sat on by different patients every day.
In Qin Lan’s eyes, he was too fussy. Of course, public amenities would not be squeaky clean – that was a known fact. I can’t possibly change a new chair every day. But since the great Master Chen wants to be so fussy, I can only accommodate him.
Nan Chen turned up as scheduled, in his typical black formal suit and white shirt. I haven’t seen him for so long, but he hasn’t changed a bit. In fact, over the years, he hasn’t aged much. He’s still as tall and dashing as ever.
At times, Qin Lan felt jealous of him. Why did God give him everything beautiful in this world? He has exceedingly good looks, ridiculously high IQ and a prominent family background. Anyone would be blessed if one owns any of these traits, but he alone possesses all three of them.
Nan Chen frowned the moment he walked into the room.
Seeing his frown, Qin Lan knitted her brows too, “What’s wrong? What has annoyed you again?”
“The fragrance is too overwhelming.”
“Fragrance? I use perfume during my working hours.”
“Sandalwood fragrance.”
Astounded, Qin Lan asked, “You smell sandalwood fragrance?”
Nan Chen could not be bothered to reply her.
“Gosh, you must have a dog’s nose. I only used the sandalwood incense yesterday, not today. But you can actually smell that? Do you know that the smell will dissipate after the incense is used up? It’s amazing how you can smell it!”
Nan Chen kept quiet. After ensuring the chair was clean, he lay on it and closed his eyes.
“You haven’t come here for a long time. What have you run into this time? Which girl have you taken a liking to now?” Qin Lan asked in jest.
Nan Chen did not reply her.
“I am a psychologist. You have to tell me what’s going on so I can help you. How do you expect me to help you when you’re always brooding in silence?”
But Nan Chen still kept quiet.
“Fine, then just sleep if you don’t want to talk. Anyway, I charge by the hour. You can sleep here for two hours. I will still charge you my counselling fees.”
Nan Chen crossed his legs without saying a word.
Qin Lan was helpless against the uncooperative patient who refused to talk to her. Thus, she sat down beside him and played with her phone.
Anyway, I will still get paid without doing any work.
Suddenly, Nan Chen uttered a single sentence, “I have children.”
Qin Lan could not understand him, “What?”
Again, Nan Chen kept quiet. Why is she uttering nonsense? Can’t I make a woman pregnant?
But now, her views of him had turned topsy turvy in an instant. He has actually made someone pregnant! This is too interesting!
Nan Chen was getting more impatient by the minute. The psychologist I have come to see turns out to be an idiot. I told her I have children now, yet she keeps harping on about pregnancy.
Suddenly, she got his meaning. The kids whom Nan Chen are referring to, are the ones I have met before. But I have inquired about them. Aren’t the kids Nan Xing’s? Why have they become Nan Chen’s kids all of a sudden?
