Chapter 297: Guilty Conscience

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Yin Tao was wondering if she should call a car later. After all, this place was still quite a distance away from the company. When she reached the entrance of the villa, she saw Ji Yu, who had already parked the car outside.

“Sister Xiaoyin!” Ji Yu waved at Yin Tao enthusiastically, as if he had been waiting for her.

“Xiaoji, why are you here?” Yin Tao tugged at the corner of her clothes nervously. For a moment, she didn’t know how to explain why she was at Feng Jing’s house again.

“Captain Feng asked me to pick you up.” Ji Yu scratched his head and explained to Yin Tao with a smile, “Captain Feng said that he brought you to the crime scene handled by the Linjiang Branch last night. He only came back from the scene in the early morning and asked me to pick you up here at noon.”

Ji Yu took out the buns and soy milk in the car and handed them to Yin Tao. He explained, “Captain Feng asked me to prepare these. He said that you probably won’t have time to eat.”

Yin Tao didn’t expect Feng Jing to be so meticulous as to ask Ji Yu to send her to work and also specially prepare food for her.

“Sorry to trouble you, Xiaoji. Please send me to the Wan Corporation.” Yin Tao thanked Yi Ju very politely, took the bag from him and got into the car.

…..

“You’re too polite, Sister Xiaoyin.” Ji Yu walked to the driver’s seat and smiled at Yin Tao. “If it weren’t for the fact that Boss really couldn’t leave, he would have personally come back to pick you up.”

“There are a lot of things to deal with at the police station, right? Captain Feng didn’t have a good rest last night. You have to remind him to rest well.” Yin Tao thought of Feng Jing and couldn’t help but think of the ridiculous dream she had last night. She coughed awkwardly.

“There have been a lot of things happening at the police station recently. Boss tends to forget everything when he gets busy. I’m telling the truth. Sister Xiaoyin, you should show him more concern.”

Seeing Ji Yu’s fearful expression, Yin Tao asked curiously, “Why? Isn’t Captain Feng friendly to you guys?”

“Not really. Captain Feng is especially kind when we are not working on cases, but he is especially strict when we have a case to handle. We don’t dare to affect him when he’s working.”

Yin Tao knew this about Feng Jing, but she seldom get to see Feng Jing in this state.

Yin Tao took out the steaming bun and took a big bite. The phone in her pocket suddenly vibrated.

When Yin Tao saw Feng Jing’s caller ID, she tried her best to swallow the bun in her mouth before answering the call.

“Hello, Captain Feng.” Because Ji Yu was around, Yin Tao addressed Feng Jing more formally.

“You’re awake?” Feng Jing sounded a little tired and muted.

“Yes, I’m already with Xiaoji. We are on the way to the Wan Corporation,” Yin Tao replied.

“Xiaotao, I need you to promise me something.” Feng Jing’s words made Yin Tao fall silent. Why did this line sound so familiar?

“Go ahead…” Yin Tao replied with a guilty conscience. Her heart was in a complete mess. However, dreams and reality were different after all. Feng Jing probably wouldn’t use such old-fashioned lines in reality.

“If you really decide to see Wan Zhe, you must tell me the location and the exact time before you go. Remember not to be too impulsive when you are alone.” Feng Jing said.

Yin Tao finally relaxed and hurriedly replied, “I understand. I’ll be especially careful.”

“Alright, contact me anytime if you need anything.”

Seeing that Feng Jing was about to hang up the phone, Yin Tao thought for a moment and said to him, “You have to take care of your health too. If you have time, take a little nap. Don’t burn yourself out.”

Feng Jing paused for a moment and replied seriously, “I understand. I will take good care of myself.”

After ending the call with Feng Jing, Yin Tao finally calmed down. She didn’t know when she had started to feel nervous when facing Feng Jing.

Yin Tao took another bite of the bun in her hand and felt very satisfied.

“Sister Xiaoyin, you’re so close to Boss,” Ji Yu said faintly as he drove, causing Yin Tao to nearly choke on her bun.

“Cough!” Yin Tao took a small sip of soy milk and gently patted her chest. She explained in a panic, “How is my relationship with Captain Feng close? He just took care of me because I am a girl.”

“Then you don’t know how Boss treated other girls in the past, especially those who liked him.” Ji Yu pursed his lips, completely disagreeing with Yin Tao’s words..
