Bai Muchuan’s face fell.

Xiang Wan looked at him. “I don’t like this! Although I still love you very much, I will not give up on what I believe in. Bai Muchuan, I’m willing to go through thick and thin with you… But if you don’t love me anymore, or for some reason, you can’t love me the way you used to… Then please forgive me, for I will really choose to give you up.”

It was easy to say things like giving up.

But if she really chose to give up, she knew that it would be a daunting task.

When Xiang Wan said that, her nose even felt a slight stinging sensation along with her eyes becoming a little watery.

That felt like she was giving him the ultimatum. A few seconds later, tears suddenly fell from her eyes and she quickly wiped it away.

“I’m serious,” she stressed.

“I know!” Bai Muchuan’s knee was slightly numb after getting it treated. But he struggled to get up from his seat when he saw her like that, and embraced her tightly. “I know, Xiang Wan. This matter really has nothing to do with you. Everything is my fault…”

Xiang Wan was sniffling. When she was in his arms, her sadness got stronger.

And she started to cry.

She didn’t try to hold back her tears, but allowed them to flow freely as she clasped his shirt with a hand. “What kind of matter is it that you need to take so long to get over it? Share it with me please, we can get over it together.”

Bai Muchuan: “I…”

He stopped again after saying a word.

All those words that nearly came out from his mouth were stuck at his throat.

Bai Muchuan lifted his head slowly and stroked Xiang Wan’s hair. “You need not be involved. Just let me be the only one… and that is enough.”

Xiang Wan cried even more bitterly. “D*rn, why is this so?”

Bai Muchuan: “…”

She seldom spew profanities.

But that was actually how she was feeling then.

“I don’t know anything, yet I have to endure your cold shoulders. Do you think you are being fair to me?”

“Little Xiang Wan!” Bai Muchuan patted her back. “It’s my fault. Be good, don’t be angry. I promise that I won’t have such emotions again…”

Xiang Wan looked at him piteously.

“Really?”

“Really.” Bai Muchuan saw her pouting like a child and let out a relieved sigh. “My emotions are not directed at you… But I can understand that you will feel uncomfortable when you saw that. So, I will try to control myself and not act so abnormally!”

“You also know that you’re behaving abnormally? No, that isn’t abnormal, you’re totally acting crazy! Especially that day, your look then almost made me feel as though I’m your arch enemy…”

“…” Bai Muchuan was amused by her words. “Okay, I was crazy earlier, don’t cry anymore?”

“Alright, you’re crazy.”

After Xiang Wan let out her emotions, half of her anger was gone.

Seriously speaking, besides that one time, Bai Muchuan did not really give her the cold shoulder…

Xiang Wan knew that he was really good to her.

And that he didn’t change at all.

Xiang Wan also knew that there was something bothering him.

Although she couldn’t understand what could really bother him so much.

“Is it because of your family?” Xiang Wan looked at him, still trying to let him know how she felt. “Your stress is from your family, right?”

“…” Bai Muchuan remained silent.

Xiang Wan took it that he had admitted it.

“If it’s about this, you need not be worried. Whether or not your family recognize me or dislikes me, it’s not important. I can tolerate how they treat me. As long as your stand is clear and stay by my side… I’ll be with you!”

Bai Muchuan felt a lump in his throat.

His eyes were reddened and his embrace got tighter.

“Alright.” He suddenly kissed her.

Eh! Xiang Wan’s eyes went wide-opened.

She was trying to talk things out, why did this suddenly become an intimate scene?

“Close your eyes and don’t look at me.” Bai Muchuan was panting.

“… Jerk, you only know how to bully me!”

Xiang Wan mumbled and hammered him at the shoulders lightly before she slowly closed her beautiful dark eyes.

She enjoyed his deep affection for her.

Sometimes, she also had to accept his imperfection.

That was what she was thinking.

…

Sometimes, for love, there wasn’t always a reason for everything.

If they were tight, then all was good.

Whether they were angry or upset with each other, because of love, they were able to get past it.

All the unpleasantries in Xiang Wan’s heart was defeated in his tender kisses.

When they calmed down after a while, she helped him sat down and asked him softly.

“How did you hurt your knee?”

“Mm?” Bai Muchuan paused for a moment. “I accidentally slipped when I went out with Laowu for a mission last night!”

“You slipped?” Xiang Wan cupped his face and looked at him seriously. “You should rest, do you know that? You’ve worn yourself out and you’re under too much stress. If it wasn’t because you felt dizzy, how would you slip and fall?”

Bai Muchuan let her fuss over him while he held her waist gently.

He was satisfied, calm and continued to let her chide him.

After Xiang Wan said her piece, she asked again, “What kind of mission was that? Is it related to the case?”

“Mm.” Bai Muchuan gave it a thought. “Last night, we busted one of the hideouts of An Ying.”

That’s certainly an important mission! she thought.

“Huang He told you this, right?” Xiang Wan was startled for a moment.

“Yeah,” Bai Muchuan nodded his head. “This hideout of An Ying specifically handles the dissemination of the drugs. If we don’t bust it, it will be tough for Huang He to get anything useful…”

Oh, no wonder!

“So the mission was a success?” Xiang Wan’s line of sight fell on his hurt knee.

“Of course! We caught more than 10 people.”

Bai Muchuan suddenly crumpled his eyebrows. With some hesitation, he asked Xiang Wan a question. “Do you know who is Feng Min?”

Feng Min? The one who died in the slums?

“Do you mean Feng Kui’s father?”

“Yes.” Bai Muchuan’s eyes soon dimmed and seemed to lose its lustre.

“Who is he?” Xiang Wan’s curiosity was piqued.

“He used to be one of the teachers of that special school.”

Although there was not a hint of any stirred emotion in Bai Muchuan’s voice, his look had told her that he was unable to forget those dark days back then.

His words were like a bomb that was thrown into Xiang Wan’s heart.

“Feng Min… he already had the habit of abusing his students back then?”

“What do you think?” Bai Muchuan showed a bitter smile and stroked her face. “I’ve seen your analysis. Teacher Xiang, you’ve made great improvements!”

Without knowing anything about Feng Min when he was alive, Xiang Wan had actually wrote an accurate profiling analysis about Feng Min. It could be said that she was considered to be a very qualified criminal profiler.

Xiang Wan felt herself blushing. “Don’t praise me, I might get ahead of myself!”

“I allow you to be proud…” Bai Muchuan narrowed his eyes. “For three seconds!”

“Alright, alright, three seconds it shall be. I’m proud!”

The two of them exchanged a few sentences as they bantered with each other when Bai Muchuan suddenly wore a serious expression. “There’s one more thing that I have to tell you, Teacher Xiang!”

This form of address made Xiang Wan a little embarrassed.

But she was a woman after all, she couldn’t help feeling thrilled.

Bai Muchuan had acknowledged and was glad with her work, as well as recognized her ability in her profiling job.

“Please say it, Captain Bai!”

Her attitude was respectful with a slight bantering tone!

Bai Muchuan raised an eyebrow and smiled. “We received news from the Ji City police. They took Xuan Yue’s photo and showed it to Xuan Yue’s family members… Guess what happened?”
