When A Snail Falls In Love

Chapter 36

"Xu Xu, only my girlfriend has the right to control me, my apprentice cannot." Finishing the sentence, Ji Bai naturally stared at her.

Xu Xu also looked at him, she replied directly: "I don't want to control you."

Seeing her pure and sparkling eyes, Ji Bai felt stuffed in his chest. She had always been outspoken, to say it like that means she doesn't have the slightest interest in him.

Irritation gradually spread throughout him, Ji Bai held the cigarette up his mouth.

Surprisingly, she went on to say: "Master, I was concerned about you."

She looked serious and sincere. Perhaps Xu Xu rarely took the initiative to express good intention to others, her pale little face was flushed.

Ji Bai is silent for a moment then his mouth curls up.

He put out the cigarette then threw it in the ashtray and looked at her: "Alright, I'll listen to you."

Xu Xu smiled and continued: "In fact, there are many methods to de-stress, smoking is an unhealthy method. I believe, you also know that; also, it isn't hard to quit smoking."Xu Xu said seriously.

Ji Bai listened to the soft voice beside him, his heart seemed to have become lazy and comfortable.

He thought: "Ji Bai, Ji Bai, her thoughts are simple and very slow. Today, because of a few words from her, your mood has been up and down like a little child. You have to make her heart unconsciously follow you, you cannot lead her by the nose."

He thought for a bit and then, Ji Bai dully said: "You're right, but I'm a heavy smoker and it's very difficult to quit. You are a professional, and concerned about me. You should help me quit smoking."

Xu Xu nodded: "Yes. I'll look up some information and we'll make a plan."

While the two were talking, the room's door was pushed open.

Officer Wu was on the phone and nodded at the two of them. After, he pulled a chair to sit down, seeing that there were people who followed officer Wu, Ji Bai naturally changed his behavior, he was about to pull back his arm placed behind Xu Xu's chair when Yao Meng walked in.

Seeing Ji Bai's action and Xu Xu who was sitting obediently next to him, she felt shocked.

Ji Bai's expression didn't change, he also didn't move his arm. He calmly gazed over Yao Meng's face. Yao Meng's mouth pulled out a smile, she put down her bag then sat down.

At this time, Ji Bai naturally pulled back his arm. Yao Meng dazedly once again met Ji Bai's eyes. Seeing his placid face, a faint feeling of disbelief and lost arose in her heart. But since she couldn't see through Ji Bai, so she could only drop her gaze.

After officer Wu hung up the phone, his face was full of excitement: "Boss, there are two important new discoveries."

What officer Wu discovered was justly very important.

Firstly, the second daughter had an alibi. According to her statement, that day later than eleven o'clock at night, she was sitting alone downstairs in the garden. The Ye family had a driver who is nearly fifty years old, and was on leave for the past few days, returned today. He told the police that on the night of the murder, he had seen Ye Jin. He lived in the worker's place not far from the second daughter couple's place.

Since he slept late every day, he had seen Ye Jin strolling in the garden.

Hearing of the sudden alibi, Ji Bai and Xu Xu frowned.
