The Magnificent Son-in-law

Chapter 187: No Goodbyes


It's worth mentioning that nowadays, no matter how you look at it, Liu Zeng and others have achieved their ultimate goal. The grudge between Xiao Feng and Wu Tian is already strong enough, and both sides are bound to fight to the death.

In fact, many irreconcilable conflicts often stem from small matters. However, the Wu Family, being a prestigious family from Kyoto, can't possibly afford to lose face.

Xiao Feng and others stayed at the hotel for one night, and early the next morning, they followed Song Keren back to the police station, then together with Lu Yao, prepared to leave.

"I took the time to make a program, maybe it'll help you in solving cases in the future." Lu Yao said as she handed over the USB drive in her hand.

Song Keren received it with a smile, "I also have a gift for you."

Saying this, she opened the drawer of her desk and took out a laptop adorned with pink stickers and cartoon patterns, "This is the highest configuration available on the market. I hope you like it."

Lu Yao did not refuse, "Thank you, I really like it!"

Little did she know, the equipment Lu Yao usually used was several times superior to the so-called enthusiast-level top configurations, with various parts individually selected and assembled, full load overclocking was essential.

But the computer Song Keren gave her felt particularly meaningful.

Lu Yao didn't have many friends to begin with, and Song Keren giving her a gift seemed like a new beginning, indicating she would have more and more friends in the future.

To empathize is to have a Buddha's heart; Lu Yao sincerely treats people, and this sincerity can be felt. She hoped that her sincerity would bring back others' sincerity.

"What about mine, what about mine?" Mu Shihan raised her hand and said, "Keren sis, you're too biased, only preparing a gift for Yao sis, I don't have one yet."

As she spoke, she stomped her little feet, her cheeks puffed up, looking adorable.

"Can't forget our little princess." Song Keren pretended to be mysterious, "The gift I prepared for you was carefully selected, now close your eyes."

"Really?" Mu Shihan asked suspiciously, but still obediently closed her eyes.

"Three, two, one, you can open your eyes!" Song Keren said.

Mu Shihan opened her eyes, and opened the gift box Song Keren handed over, exclaiming in surprise, "Wow! A butterfly hairclip? Keren sis, you are so thoughtful."

Saying this, she took the hairclip out and inspected it carefully.

The butterfly hairclip was light purple, its wings would flutter as she moved, decorated with crystals; the little girl always liked pretty accessories, and this was perfect for her.

After putting on the hairclip, she spun around and expectantly asked, "Does it look good?"

Everyone nodded, expressing that it looked great, and the little girl was immediately happy, "Keren sis, Yao sis just gave you a gift too. Let me think about what to give you..."

Song Keren smiled gratified, "It's enough that you have that in mind, sis doesn't need you to give me anything."

"No way!" The little girl insisted, "I must give you something."

After saying this, she opened her backpack and took out a plush keychain, reluctantly saying, "I've carried this keychain for a long time, Keren sis, you must take good care of it."

Song Keren chuckled, nodding and promising, "Definitely!"

At this time, Wang Lubo, sitting on the sofa, yawned and said, "It's just a temporary separation. We're all in the same city, so we can meet every day. Why make it seem like life and death parting? Is it necessary?"

But after he said this, all the women in the room glared at him angrily, and Wang Lubo hurriedly smiled apologetically, "Okay okay, my bad for talking too much."

Xiao Feng patted Wang Lubo's shoulder helplessly, "Bozai, when you can control that mouth of yours, it'll mean half your success."

Wang Lubo smiled bitterly, thinking he was clearly not wrong, why do I always end up being the target?

Taking advantage of the farewell moment, Xiao Feng found Shi Jiaxin.

Shi Jiaxin was a bit surprised at Xiao Feng's arrival, and forced a smile, "You've come to say goodbye to me?"

Xiao Feng said amusedly, "I'm just temporarily leaving the Public Security Bureau, not leaving Jiangcheng, what's there to say goodbye for? I'm just here to check if you've been slacking off lately."

When it came to serious matters, Shi Jiaxin became composed, "Your training method really works."

"Isn't that obvious?" Xiao Feng joked, "If it doesn't work, why would I make you train like that?"

Shi Jiaxin shook her head seriously, "Initially, I didn't notice much, but as I got used to it, when I hold the scalpel, I can clearly feel it, more confident and precise than before."

Xiao Feng laughed, "Looks like you've trained steadiness and precision pretty well. Speed doesn't have much use for your career. Congratulations, you have almost mastered it."

Shi Jiaxin sighed, "Actually, even if you didn't say goodbye to me, I was planning to say goodbye to you."

"Goodbye?" Xiao Feng was slightly startled, "You're not planning to stay in Jiangcheng?"

"Do you remember the night Keren got shot?" Shi Jiaxin asked.

Xiao Feng replied, "I remember."

Shi Jiaxin continued, "That night, when I saw the knife wound near where Keren was shot, I immediately judged that the person who removed the bullet was a knife expert. At that time, I was worried about not finding a teacher, so I nagged Keren to introduce the person who removed the bullet to me..."

Hearing this, Xiao Feng understood Shi Jiaxin's meaning, "You're saying the reason you came to the Jiangcheng Public Security Bureau as a forensic expert was partly because of me?"

"You could say it's part of the reason." Shi Jiaxin admitted, "Back then, Keren had just taken up the post and lacked people around her, so I stayed to help her as much as possible."

After saying this, Shi Jiaxin stood up and stood in front of Xiao Feng, "Before I leave, I want to give something back to you."

Xiao Feng frowned, "I don't think I lent you anything, did I?"

Shi Jiaxin didn't answer, her hand suddenly clenched into a fist behind her, then she mustered all her courage, stepped forward, and kissed Xiao Feng on the cheek.

Xiao Feng's mind went blank instantly. So the thing Shi Jiaxin wanted to return to him was actually a kiss?

By the time he reacted, Shi Jiaxin had already walked to the door, hands in her white coat pockets, "Hope you won't forget me, and hope that we can meet again. I'm leaving!"

With that, Shi Jiaxin laughed freely, but at the moment of turning around, a tear gently fell from her eyes.

She hoped to meet Xiao Feng again, so didn't say goodbye at their departure...

Standing in place for several minutes, Xiao Feng suddenly smiled, thinking there's no such thing as an eternal banquet, and what's more, everyone's at an age where they strive for their dreams. Comfort is something one enjoys only when old.

Understanding this point, the entanglement in his heart naturally disappeared.

After arriving at the criminal investigation team, Xiao Feng went straight to Miao Yueqian's office, "Captain Miao, I've brought my people here to join you. Will you give us a meal?"

Miao Yueqian was delighted, "I'd be honored if you came. As we agreed before, I'll pay you three times what Song Keren did."

"That's not necessary. When I said join you, I meant temporarily." Xiao Feng waved off the offer.

"What do you mean?" Miao Yueqian asked puzzled.

Xiao Feng smiled, "After helping you win this competition, we'll leave. Your place is more dangerous than Song Keren's, might even cost me my life, I don't want to take that risk."

"Alright, just worry you'll be reluctant to leave then, even chasing you away won't work." Miao Yueqian confidently said, "If you don't believe me, we'll see!"

Xiao Feng was about to reply, but his phone rang first. After checking, he found it was a call from Gong Kaishan.

Once the call connected, Gong Kaishan's voice came through, "Brother Xiao Feng, didn't we agree before? A group of foreign people has arrived in Jiangcheng. You're supposed to assist us in the investigation, right? Have you forgotten?"

Xiao Feng was silent for a moment, then remembered there was such a matter and said, "I'm at the criminal investigation team now, you come over."

"Okay, okay, okay." Gong Kaishan agreed enthusiastically, as if fearing Xiao Feng might suddenly change his mind.

The little girl next to Xiao Feng had shining eyes, "Brother Xiao Feng, is there some special mission? Take me with you, I promise not to cause trouble."
