NovelEnglishChapter 4137: Mian, It’s Mom (7)
“Bella… Very good.”
She said that with a smile plastered on her face, but the smile made others feel uncomfortable.
Bella thought that she was just overthinking, so she just nodded.
“Anyways, take care of yourself… If you need anything, call me.”
“Okay, I will.”
“I’ll get going now…”
“Mmm.”
“Right, Mian, Zhixin is almost back… He should get home tomorrow afternoon. You guys should come home for dinner, since we haven’t gotten together in a long time. Bring Pudding and Little Bean, Mom really misses them.”
“Okay.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHuo Mian was still smiling, keeping up her graceful facade at all times.
As soon as Bella stepped foot out the door, Huo Mian’s face dropped.
With a clenched fist, she cursed, “002, you fool… It looks like we can’t stay for long, otherwise my plan will be ruined.”
In the city, inside a high-class neighborhood.
After Gao Ran ate some food, he rose and put on his police uniform.
“You’re going out again…”
Zhu Lingling just came out of the bathroom, and she was in a pink semi-sheer bathrobe made of silk. She was very seductive.
Her hair was damp too, so the scenery made the imagination run wild.
“Ah, just checking in at the Bureau.”
“You haven’t slept in two days. Even if you’re working overtime, you need a break. You’re not made of steel. Anyways, the superiors told you to take a day off. I thought that we could… We could use the opportunity when our son isn’t here to…”
Zhu Lingling didn’t say what came after, but it was evident that Gao Ran knew what his wife was going to say.
Gao Ran was a normal man, and Zhu Lingling was a normal woman. They were adults that had normal biological needs.
However, it seemed to be a long time since the two had been intimate. Gao Ran needed to be at the City Bureau, and Zhe Lingling had to take care of their son.
Finally, Gao Boyuan was at school and Gao Ran had a day off.
Zhu Lingling took the time to prepare, however…
“Honey, please understand. These cases have been too stressful, I’m really not in the mood.”
“Understand, understand, why should I? Why can’t you understand that I’m your wife and not your caretaker… I’m not an old nanny raising your kid, cooking your food, and washing your clothes.”
Zhu Lingling angrily threw her towel onto the ground as her temper rose.
“Of course I know, I know, I promise… Once I finish this case, I’ll take my annual vacation and take you and Boyuan to Barbados, okay?”
“Go away.”
Zhu Lingling clearly didn’t seem satisfied. After all, it was too difficult for Gao Ran to get a break.
“My dearest and beloved wife, if you feel bored, you can visit Mian,” Gao Ran suggested.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“No, Mian just lost her kid and she’s in a bad state. If I go, we’ll just end up brooding together. Once she gets some time to work it out, I’ll force her to go to yoga, badminton, and the gym with me.”
It seemed like Zhu Lingling had a plan.
“Okay, baby, behave…”
Gao Ran left in a hurry.
Her anger made Zhu Lingling lose her appetite, as she simply sat on the living room couch and brooded.
At the City Bureau.
“Director Gao, I thought you had a day off today?”
“Mhm, but I’m not taking it. I’ll just sleep as soon as I get home. Anyways, how’s the situation looking?
“There have been no leads.”
“How many have been missing?” Gao Ran’s face was filled with worry.
“Four in total, three boys and one girl. Their ages are four, six, six, and seven.”
“Any other common traits?”
“They all lived in Sky Blessing Court. Their times of disappearance varied from morning to noon.”
“Sky Blessing Court, isn’t that when Zhixin lives?” Gao Ran scratched his head and thought about how weird this case was.
