The crowd let out a sneering laugh.

"Kai, come with us." Liu Cheng spoke up, "Domestic development has reached a bottleneck. Opportunities are boundless overseas."

"You know shit." Zhou Kai snorted lightly before adding, "Overseas is nowhere near as comfortable as home."

"Kai," at this moment, Lu Dapao patted Zhou Kai's shoulder and said, "Whatever choice you make, I respect it. But if you really insist on staying domestically, I support that too. After all, our substantial domestic industry indeed needs someone to guard it. I'll take the brothers and fight abroad. How about that?"

"Bullshit!" Zhou Kai suddenly jumped up angrily, "Fuck, I'm also a founding member of Feixiang Company, if we're really going to expand overseas, how can it be done without me?"

Lu Dapao chuckled, "That's more like it."

"You..." Zhou Kai was taken aback and said, "Are you provoking me?"

"Not at all, these are your own words," Lu Dapao chuckled.

Ha ha ha...

The restaurant burst into laughter once again. Zhou Kai felt helpless; once the words are spoken, they can't be taken back just like water that has been thrown out.

......

In the afternoon, Lin Chuan returned home.

In the living room, Mrs. Lin's portrait was placed on the table, with an incense burner in front filled with dense incense sticks. Nuo Xiaoxi would come every week to clean inside and out, and also offer incense to Mrs. Lin's portrait. Everything was tidy and well-organized. Tang Yumeng and Zhou Rui would come every week to offer incense as well. The room still smelled of incense.

Entering the room carefully, Lin Chuan took three sticks of incense from the table, lit them, and respectfully offered them up.

"Mom, if you have a spirit in heaven, please bless your son," Lin Chuan said tenderly, wiping the dust off the portrait. "I hope you can meet dad in heaven and continue your world for two."

Last night was really exhausting, and Lin Chuan almost exhausted Yang Zi to death. After having lunch, Lin Chuan felt a bit tired and fell asleep on the bed, sleeping until after five in the afternoon.

Thump thump thump...

At that moment, a fierce knocking on the door sounded.

Lin Chuan opened his bleary eyes, wearing flip-flops and with messy hair, he slowly walked towards the door.

Upon opening the door, there stood Song Xiaojia in a crisp police uniform, with a trim figure, blue police uniform topped with a policewoman's hat, exuding a strong allure of uniform temptation. Lin Chuan looked at Song Xiaojia puzzled, "Xiao Jia, what... what brings you here?"

"What? Not welcome?" Song Xiaojia frowned.

"Of course not," Lin Chuan shook his head awkwardly, "Come in and have a seat."

Song Xiaojia walked in slowly; she was very familiar with the room, having been there many times, and occasionally coming to offer incense. Once inside, Lin Chuan poured a glass of water for Song Xiaojia.

"Is there something you need?" Lin Chuan asked.

"I need your help with something," Song Xiaojia glanced at Lin Chuan.

"What kind of help?" Lin Chuan asked curiously, sitting next to Song Xiaojia. Song Xiaojia's face blushed, and she hastily moved away. Lin Chuan laughed and said, "What? You've become so shy?"

"Don't sit so close," Song Xiaojia's face turned completely red.

"Hey, we're in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, right?" Lin Chuan suddenly reached out and embraced Song Xiaojia.

Song Xiaojia shivered all over; she suddenly found herself stiff, unable to move. She said awkwardly, "Lin Chuan, you... you shouldn't do this. Even though I'm your girlfriend, you can't just..."

Lin Chuan whispered teasingly next to Song Xiaojia's ear, "Can't do what?"

While speaking, he deliberately blew into Song Xiaojia's ear, his tongue sliding over her earlobe. This caused Song Xiaojia to convulse with shivers, nearly collapsing. Her voice trembling, she said, "Lin Chuan, please don't... don't do this!"

Lin Chuan's hand was not behaving; he embraced Song Xiaojia then slowly pushed her down.

To Lin Chuan's surprise, Song Xiaojia didn't resist at all, and Lin Chuan easily had his way. Not only that, but he even started to unbutton her police uniform successfully loosening the buttons at her chest.

Despite not being overweight, her bust was surprisingly large.

Catching a glimpse, Lin Chuan was stunned. Truly a beauty with 'huge assets'.

Song Xiaojia covered her face, hardly daring to look at Lin Chuan.

For Lin Chuan, she had always maintained a certain relationship with him. To say Lin Chuan was her boyfriend could be justified, after all, there was historical evidence; but to say Lin Chuan wasn't her boyfriend was also acceptable since Tang Yumeng was his official girlfriend. Having Tang Yumeng, then what was she? Thus, Song Xiaojia was always in a state of conflict, unsure of what kind of relationship she should have with Lin Chuan. Or should she just keep her distance from him?

Hiss...

Suddenly, Song Xiaojia felt a shiver run through her body...

"No!" Song Xiaojia hastily pushed Lin Chuan away.

Lin Chuan almost fell off the sofa, nearly toppling over.

Song Xiaojia quickly grabbed Lin Chuan, who awkwardly said, "Xiao Jia, are you trying to kill your husband?"

"You... who let you assault me!" Song Xiaojia, true to her job as a police officer, used such formal and technical language.

"You're my girlfriend, isn't a little encroachment okay?" Lin Chuan chuckled.

"Not okay!" Song Xiaojia decisively shook her head.

"Why?" Lin Chuan asked.

"Hmph, if you want to assault me, you should marry me first," Song Xiaojia almost yelled.

Lin Chuan immediately became speechless, putting away his advances. Seeing Lin Chuan back down, Song Xiaojia hurriedly fastened all the buttons on her clothes.

A moment later, the atmosphere between the two in the living room immediately became very constrained and silent. The awkward aura quickly permeated the living room.

After a long time, Lin Chuan spoke up, "Are you used to being back home?"

"Yes." Song Xiaojia nodded.

"Has May contacted you?" Lin Chuan asked.

"Contacted." Song Xiaojia nodded and said, "But I haven't really paid him much attention, though now he's found a girlfriend. So, he won't come to find me anymore."

"What about your dad?" Lin Chuan asked.

"My dad?" Song Xiaojia paused for a moment, then said, "I don't know exactly what you guys talked about last time, but now whenever I return home, my dad scolds you. He says you don't know how to respect your elders, that you lack respect, and not someone to entrust for life. He also told me not to meet you."

"Haha..." Upon hearing this, Lin Chuan couldn't help but laugh and said, "Actually, your dad is a good person. I lost my temper during our last conversation because my mom had just passed away, so I was filled with frustration. But now that I think about it, I do owe your dad an apology. If I get the chance, I'll find him and apologize to him in person."

"Okay." Song Xiaojia nodded.

Lin Chuan smiled and said, "Right, did you come to find me today for something?"

"Yes, I almost forgot if you hadn't mentioned it," Song Xiaojia hurriedly said.

"Tell me, I'm all ears," Lin Chuan said.

Song Xiaojia quickly spoke, "I wanted to ask you for a favor."

"What favor?" Lin Chuan was curious since it was rare for Song Xiaojia to ask for his help, which meant the matter must be quite serious or complicated. Lin Chuan immediately adopted a serious demeanor.

"About the Liu Group, Liu Shaoqi's death," Song Xiaojia looked at Lin Chuan seriously and said, "I find Liu Shaoqi's death very strange. That car accident, it felt like it was man-made."

"Is that so?" Lin Chuan was startled, his mind filled with various excuses, but he didn't know what to say at the moment.

"Yes!" Song Xiaojia hurriedly took out some documents from her bag and seriously said, "Firstly, we have inspected Liu Shaoqi's car and found that the brake system was tampered with, so we can essentially determine it was a man-made accident. We immediately started an investigation and after conducting interviews and inspections, we identified several suspects. However, after eliminating them one by one, the final target fell on Liu Shaoqi's driver. But when we went to find him, we discovered he had already disappeared."

"So... how am I supposed to help?" Lin Chuan asked.

"Of course, you can help," Song Xiaojia chuckled, and said, "I know you have extensive resources. Last time Song Hao tried to frame you with drug trafficking, and you managed to find the criminal through a portrait drawing, something even the police admired. So, this time I decided to seek your help, hoping you could help me find this person."

"I'm sorry, I can't help you," Lin Chuan immediately shook his head.

"You haven't even tried, how do you know you can't do it?" Song Xiaojia was somewhat angry, glaring at Lin Chuan, "Why don't you want to help me?"

"It's not that I don't want to help you," Lin Chuan said helplessly, "I simply can't help you."
