Chapter 101: Fall Into My Trap Part 3

When they were at Jiangcheng, she investigated the case while he examined the bodies and gave her very valuable conclusions just like this. And in this big case with a massive amount of dead bodies, it showcases his talent clearly. His remarkably professional findings make her criminal psychology profiles even more complete.

She continues to flip through the photos enthusiastically of the victims with their hearts extracted. Although they're a bit gross, it's just like how he said it; the cuts are done perfectly……And Xu Si Bai is sitting beside her quietly.

The sun is setting at an angle, glaring at the computer screen. Su Mian squints her eyes. She raises her head inadvertently and notices two shadows on the wall behind her.

She's sitting while he has one arm over the back of her chair with his head turned to the side staring still at her.

The two of them are about ten centimeters apart, but their shadows are already touching each other.

As if he notices her falling into a daze, he lifts his head and looks at the shadows on the wall.

They both fall into silence; as if they're both in a daze.

Su Mian's heart feels stuff suddenly. She lets go of the mouse, stands up, turns her head toward him and smiles, "I think this should do. Thanks, Old Xu. I'll go back now."

He stands up as well, "Sure."

Just when she steps out of his office, he calls her suddenly, "Jin Xi." 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝒆w𝚎𝙗nov𝘦𝗹.𝐜o𝓶

She turns around to look at him.

Both of his hands are in his lab coat's pockets. He smiles calmly and gently, "After we're done with this case, I'll cook and invite all of you over?"

Su Mian feels her heart sting and a kind of damp yet warmness surging up in her chest. He is still……

She walks over, looks up at him and gives his arm a hard swing, "You promise! It's a deal."

Su Mian leaves Xu Si Bai's office. Just as she walks down the stairs, she sees Han Chen not far away. As if he could feel her gaze, he lifts his head and looks in her direction.

The setting sun gives the entire room a golden glaze. He and Cold Face are standing in front of the map. His sleeves are rolled up, revealing his lean and muscular arm and making the platinum ring on his left hand even more noticeable.

Just by looking at him like this, she can feel her heart throbbing.

It's just that his eyes seem a bit gloomy. He looks quite like he's jealous of something. Is he complaining that she and Xu Si Bai have been in the room together for too long?

Su Mian smiles politely and walks over.

"What are you busy with?"

Now that she's here, Cold Face puts down his marker and walks to the side for a cup of tea to take a break. Han Chen glances at her and looks at the map with his arms crossed, "We're almost done. All of the main locations have been marked. We just need to go back to do some analyses and we'll be able to identify the approximate areas of where the serial killers live."

Su Mian wants to stick out her tongue in her heart. When it comes to anything to do with geography, she is completely oblivious. And on top of the fact that Han Chen is a king in mathematics and logic. But their main goal today isn't to draw conclusions from these findings, but rather, it is to uncover "that person." Therefore, she doesn't ask about the details. Instead, she turns to look at him, "Do you want to go out and take a walk for a break?"

Her voice is crisp and in medium volume, showing her openness and relaxed manner. This is what Han Chen taught her in the morning; not confirmed yet not denying. Since everyone knows that they're together, she might as well ask him openly and then vent to him privately.

Han Chen naturally knows what she thinks. He takes a look at her, tosses away the whiteboard marker and gets up, "Okay." He turns his head and says to Cold Face, "I'll go take a walk with her." Cold Face nods naturally.

Therefore, Su Mian turns around and walks out of the door. Han Chen stuffs both hands into his pockets and follows her. Everyone is able to sense the aura from these two as a couple.

Once they get to a quiet garden, Su Mian takes a look around to make sure that there's no one before pulling Han Chen with her to sit on the bench.

Han Chen rests his arm on the back of the bench. He looks at her from the side and says in his deep and unhurried voice, "I see that you've run around the office like a radar. What have you found?" While he talks, he fiddles with a strand of her hair; he loops it around his finger twice, pulls down on it and lets go, causing it to hit the side of her face lightly.

Su Mian glares at him, "What are you doing?"

Han Chen smiles.

Su Mian has found quite a few things and is anxious to tell him, so she doesn't scold him. She tells him everything that she has seen and heard today, making special emphasis on Xu Si Bai's performance and then says while looking into his eyes, "You see? Old Xu's findings are so useful. It's definitely not something that we had thought of but it makes a lot of sense. If he is a serial killer, how could he have revealed everything to me without holding back? Therefore, he must be innocent."

Han Chen thinks for a moment and then nods, "I'll consider him trustworthy for now."

Su Mian remembers his fierce words from before——If Xu Si Bai doesn't let go, he won't be able to tolerate it. She leans over to him and pacifies him, "And he said to me that once the case is over, he would cook and invite everyone over for dinner. This means that he takes both of us as good friends, so you should stop minding so much about him."

Han Chen looks into her eyes. He lowers his head suddenly and pecks on her lips, "I know how to handle it. If you don't care about him, I will naturally not care about him."

These words still carry a hint of jealousy in them. Su Mian's mouth twitches. She wants to get up and leave but is pulled back by him. It's a rare break time that they're having nonetheless. He grabs onto her waist, lowers his head and kisses her, not letting her refuse.

The smell of flowers surround them and the leaves rustle above their heads, leaving mottled sunlight to shine through. They both remain silent and observe the area quietly. Han Chen leaves her lips and starts kissing her cheeks; his eyes are smiling the whole time.

After a while, he pulls her in and hugs her tightly. He lifts his head and coincidentally, he notices a person standing at the window of the second floor and looking at them from Black Shield Team's white building.

It's Xu Si Bai.

Their eyes meet. Xu Si Bai is expressionless. He turns his head and shifts his gaze elsewhere.

Han Chen grabs onto Su Mian's hand and stands up.

Su Mian looks up at him, "What's the matter?"

Han Chen stops looking Xu Si Bai. He smiles and pulls her along to go deeper into the garden where there's more privacy. He grabs onto her waist again and kisses her.

"Nothing……" he says indifferently, "Here is better."

Su Mian giggles. Her back is against the fake mountain as she lets him kiss her. Han Chen kisses her for a while before lifting his head again. This time, he can only see the clear blue sky; the view of the white building and Xu Si Bai has been blocked.

Han Chen presses one hand onto the fake mountain while holding her waist with the other and kissing her forcefully with his head down.

In reality, just a simple eye contact between men is enough to explain everything.

The way he looks at you is full of persistence, so how could he possibly stop loving you?

It's just his wishful thinking. I won't even let him have the opportunity to think about it.
