Everybody soon realized that this man's eyes were on Xu Xu. That's why there were many who turned to Xu Xu with curiosity. Xu Xu started to turn hot and coldly glanced at Ye Zi Xiao. Xu Xu hastily got off at the next stop. Of course, Ye Zi Xiao followed after her. Seeing her cold, yet lightly blush face, Ye Zi Xiao's mood became really good.

During the time after that, Ye Zi Xiao kept following Xu Xu like a shadow. Xu Xu walked around the park while he found a bench to rest; his eyes still following her, not letting her out of his view. Xu Xu got on the underground train; while he follows suit and used the affectionate look to stare at her in front of everyone. Xu Xu got on a cab, and he quickly threw the driver $100 and got in the front seat and continued to look at Xu Xu through the car's rearview mirror.

At first, Xu Xu felt really uncomfortable and looked at him with killing eyes and coldly told him to go away. But Ye Zi Xiao just kept on saying repetitively: "I want to have a meal with you."

In the end, Xu Xu decided to completely ignore him and focused on her task of investigating the crime scene.

It was already 10 PM when she reached the park. This park was already closed. Xu Xu took out her work's card telling the manager to open the gate for her. Ye Zi Xiao was about to follow in but Xu Xu quickly told the manager: "I don't know him. Don't let anyone who doesn't have the authority to come in."

Seeing Ye Zi Xiao's special aura, the manager politely told him to leave. Ye Zi Xiao looked at the petite Xu Xu going in alone, and with a cold tone, he said: "You can't tell? She is my girlfriend."

While the manager is still indecisive about it, Xu Xu coldly said: "If you let him in, I will prosecute you for obstructing me working on the case."

That resulting in Ye Zi Xiao being stopped outside the park.

Seeing that Xu Xu hasn't come out yet after a long wait. The park's manager curiously asked him: "Is that officer really your girlfriend?"

Ye Zi Xiao replied in an uncaring tone: "Sooner or later, she will be my girlfriend."

The manager laughed. Ye Zi Xiao threw him a cigarette box, the two of them talked back and forth, then Ye Zi Xiao went to find a chair to sit down while waiting at the gate.

Xu Xu walked out, and the manager winked at her. Following his eyes, Xu Xu found Ye Zi Xiao sitting a couple of steps away. He was leaning on the chair with closed eyes in place, just his chest was moving a little.

The sunlight softly shone down on him making Ye Zi Xiao look like a sleeping statue. Xu Xu just got a new clue about the case causing her to be in a good mood. That's why she didn't find him as annoying like she did in the evening while watching Ye Zi Xiao's sleeping face.

"Officer, it is really easy to catch a cold while sleeping in the cold weather like this. You should hurry to wake him up," the manager said.

Xu Xu glanced over at him once: "Good bye!" Then quickly walked to the underground train.

When Xu Xu was no longer in sight, Ye Zi Xiao quickly opened his eyes and stood up to see where she was going thinking that this girl was really strong-minded. Wasn't she an officer? Even if they were a stranger, shouldn't she feel some kind of sympathy seeing someone sleeping on the streets?

Not bothering about the teasing eyes from the manager, Ye Zi Xiao zipped up his jacket and stood up...thinking it's really cold!

The next day...

Ye Zi Xiao really did get a cold. He was already sneezing first thing in the morning. His mind was blurry. His face looked really bad when he got to the company.
