CHAPTER 531: CHAPTER 325: THE COLDEST 2
Lu Mojing picked up his phone and sent Bei Ran a photo of him with his sister: "Her name is Lu Xiao, nicknamed Miao Miao. Her greatest wish is to become a police officer in the future."
"She’s beautiful!" Bei Ran received the photo he had sent, "Mojing, you too must live well, and watch Miao Miao graduate and become a heroic police officer, okay?"
"I will!" Lu Mojing nodded.
Having come from the seaside, Bei Ran naturally wanted to visit A University to find Lu Xiao. Thinking about how Zhuo Yufeng also worked in the police force, she decided to invite Zhuo Yufeng to accompany her to see Lu Xiao, believing it would be better that way.
However, upon seeing the photo, Zhuo Yufeng commented: "It’s a small world after all, she’s on a date with Gu Yucheng! In that very western restaurant where the incident occurred."
"What?" Bei Ran frowned, "Since when did Gu Yucheng develop a penchant for younger women? Is he reminiscing about his past with Ji Su? Or is he constantly seeking some lost flavor of the past in young and pretty girls?"
"I can’t say!" Zhuo Yufeng sighed, "I would never have thought that Lu Mojing, that big villain, actually has a sister who is studying at the police academy!"
"Since when is Mojing a big villain?" Bei Ran was displeased, "Zhuo Yufeng, let me tell you, you’re not allowed to speak of Mojing that way!"
Zhuo Yufeng glanced at her, "Alright, since you’re so protective of the kid, I won’t be jealous. Naturally, it’s someone else who will be!"
The two arrived outside the police academy. Given that Zhuo Yufeng was returning to his alma mater, he naturally didn’t need any pass to enter the campus.
After asking a few juniors, they were told that Lu Xiao was playing basketball on the court.
Upon reaching the basketball court, indeed they saw several girls playing. Some had ponytails, others sported neat short hair. Youth was flying unrestrained on this winter afternoon.
Bei Ran showed Zhuo Yufeng a picture of Lu Xiao. With a nod of acknowledgment, he approached, "Lu Xiao, I need to have a word with you!"
"Who are you?" Lu Xiao glanced at the tall and formidable Zhuo Yufeng, his skin chocolatey, his expression resolute and composed.
Zhuo Yufeng showed his work ID, and Lu Xiao then looked at him with admiration: "Hello, senior! You’re here about the western restaurant poisoning case, aren’t you?"
"Smart!" said Zhuo Yufeng, "Let’s talk over there!"
After greeting her classmates, Lu Xiao accompanied Zhuo Yufeng to the benches outside the court, where Bei Ran handed her a bottle of mineral water: "I’m Bei Ran! Mojing’s friend..."
Upon hearing her brother’s name, Lu Xiao blinked her beautiful eyes, "Do I get a chance to call you sister-in-law?"
Bei Ran smiled: "You do... "
"Really? Hello, sister-in-law!" Lu Xiao immediately exclaimed.
But Bei Ran said: "When you can marry Gu Yucheng, naturally you can call me sister-in-law, because I am his brother’s wife!"
"Ah..." Lu Xiao’s face turned red, "Then my brother won’t stand a chance..."
Bei Ran observed her. She likely didn’t know yet about Lu Mojing’s terminal illness. Lu Mojing had also instructed Bei Ran not to tell Lu Xiao. Seeing Lu Xiao so carefree, Bei Ran felt that the youth and happiness that belonged to her shouldn’t be shadowed by Lu Mojing’s bleakness.
Zhuo Yufeng glanced at her, perhaps due to the connection with his junior sister, felt a closer bond and asked, "Do you truly like Gu Yucheng? He’s a man who is divorced and has a child!"
Lu Xiao looked at him, "Mr. Gu is a very charming man!"
Thereupon, Zhuo Yufeng was at a loss for words: "..."
"Senior, ask away! I will spare no detail and withhold nothing," Lu Xiao was a very cheerful lady.
"Did you notice anyone suspicious around the restaurant’s humidifier?" Zhuo Yufeng asked her.
Lu Xiao shook her head, "At that time, Mr. Gu’s daughter came over, so I left and headed straight back to school, I didn’t notice anything..."
"Alright, if you come across any clues, remember to call me." Zhuo Yufeng gave her his phone number.
"Yes, sir!" Lu Xiao playfully saluted with a straight posture!
"Ran sister, how is my brother doing?" Lu Xiao turned to her, "I haven’t seen him for a long time!"
"He’s doing well!" Bei Ran said softly.
Lu Xiao whispered to her, "My brother likes you, doesn’t he? But you already have a lover, right?"
"You’re such a gossip!" Bei Ran gently wiped the sweat from her forehead, "Alright, you’ve just finished playing ball and you’re wearing so little. Go take a hot shower, put on more clothes, and during winter break, spend some time with Mojing!"
"Sure will!" Lu Xiao said goodbye to them and then returned to her dormitory.
Bei Ran and Zhuo Yufeng also left. As they looked back at the school, Bei Ran sighed, "Being a student was truly a happy time. Under the deep blue sky, youth could fly unrestrainedly."
