Chapter 302: 115 Chen Bureau major action_2
“Assistant Xu,” the officer glanced toward the direction of the meeting room before lowering his voice, “You even got Chief Chen out of retirement, do we even need to discuss this case? Xiangcheng is about to have an earthquake.”
The suspicion in my heart turned into reality.
Chief Chen…
It was really that Chief Chen.
**
As soon as Assistant Xu left, Bai Lian couldn’t be bothered to face Ji Mulan anymore.
She came today to see how Xu En was doing.
After saying a word to Ji Heng, she left.
“Dad,” Ji Mulan didn’t dare to speak until everyone else had left, “The Mr. Chen just now is…”
She remembered Chief Chen. When she had gone to see Ji Heng before, Chief Chen was always carrying a creel with him.
But the “Xiaochen” Ji Heng had just mentioned was so different from the one she had met at Ji Heng’s home.
“He is a policeman,” Ji Heng looked at Ji Mulan and didn’t continue talking about Chief Chen, but instead questioned, “After you left the Bai Family, how did Alian live? Why did she suddenly leave the Bai Family?”
Ji Mulan detected the tone in his voice, “She could have gone further with the Bai Family, why leave and then just go jump into the lake…”
Jump into the lake?
Ji Heng suddenly looked up, his cold gaze fixed on Ji Mulan, “From now on, you don’t need to involve yourself in any matter related to Alian. When I am dead—”
Ji Heng’s gaze shifted to the comatose Xu En, “I would rather trust him.”
“Dad!” Ji Mulan exclaimed in shock.
“That will be all,” Ji Heng said, picking up his pipe and rising to his feet, though he didn’t add any more to it.
But his heart felt heavy.
From the time Bai Lian first returned to Xiangcheng, he felt he owed her an apology.
Because he hadn’t raised Ji Mulan well.
Each one of them, Ji Shaojun, Ji Shaorong, had been educated by Ji Heng from a young age, and his wife taught their two sons literacy.
But not Ji Mulan.
His wife was also of the rare Panda Blood type, and she passed away from a difficult childbirth and excessive bleeding when Ji Mulan was born. Since then, he became reticent and focused solely on making a living for the three children, giving almost no education to Ji Mulan, who grew up under the protection of her two older brothers.
She had never suffered.
Which indirectly caused all of today’s issues.
Ji Mulan was in her forties, even having gone through a divorce, but Ji Heng felt she was too lucky, and thus still hadn’t grown up.
Sometimes Ji Heng was relieved that Bai Lian had truly grown up.
And sometimes it was inevitable to feel pity for her.
