Tang Hao blended among the crowd after he got out of the bank, lingering around for a while to see.

He left after seeing the robbers escorted into the police cars.

It was evening when he arrived home.

Tang Hao went to the nearby wet market.

The vendors at the wet market knew him very well. They greeted him warmly when they saw him. A few of them asked about Ling Wei.

“Where’s that girl, Tang boy?”

Tang Hao was at a loss for a reply whenever he was asked that.

It had been a month since the incident. He also wondered how she had been.

‘Her life must be good now!’ Tang Hao thought.

He made dinner for himself when he got back. He chatted with Qin Xiangyi over the phone as he ate, listening to her talk about her business and her everyday life.

He enjoyed the simplicity of it all.

The call lasted for more than an hour.

After dinner, Tang Hao sat down in the living room and took out the raw jade stones he bought earlier that day. He broke the rocks open and cut the jade ore into thin slices.

The night got darker.

Tang Hao sat there, making talismans with full concentration. An unknown amount of time passed before the sudden vibration of his phone broke his concentration.

He was surprised when he saw the call notification.

It was from Officer Zhao.

He held the phone in his hand for about ten seconds before answering the call.

“Hello, Officer Zhao!”

The other end of the phone was silent.

Tang Hao also fell silent. He did not know what to say.

A long while later, she spoke hesitantly, “Come down!”

“What?” Tang Hao was confused.

“I said… come down here! I’m at the entrance of your residential area!” Zhao Qingxue said. She sounded a little tipsy.

“You drank?”

She was silent for a while. “Just a little!”

“I’ll be downstairs soon!” Tang Hao said.

He ended the call and lifted his head to look at the clock. It was already eleven o’clock.

“She’s not asleep yet at this hour? And she’s been drinking too..” Tang Hao mumbled and furrowed his brows.

He left his house and went to the entrance of his residential area. He looked to his left and right and saw a car parked nearby.

He walked toward the car, opened the door, and sat inside.

Zhao Qingue was sitting in the driver’s seat. She turned her head over and looked at him.

She was not in her police uniform, but rather a red dress.

She continued staring at him.

Tang Hao furrowed his brows. It seemed that she took quite a lot of alcohol, but she was not drunk yet.
