CHAPTER 335: CHAPTER 277 IT’S GREAT TO BE WEALTHY AND FREE

At that moment, Xu Ke had no intention to resist, her whole body filled with fear.

If it had only been the matter of the potted plant, she wouldn’t have been afraid.

Even if Ming Liping had pinned everything on her, she had already thought of an exit strategy... But now things were different; those human traffickers... were all taken down.

If they had all been caught, it would have been fine, but what if some were not? If those people came looking for her, would she have any way to survive?

Xiao Song had taken someone away without any effort.

Now, only Qi Yan and Rong Yan were left in the police station’s lobby.

"Comrade Rong Yan, how did you know the traffickers were after Xu Ke? How did you know they were following her?"

Rong Yan countered bluntly, "May I ask, how did you become the team leader here?"

Qi Yan: ?

"...Of course, I was promoted."

As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed the girl’s gaze turn inexplicably strange.

"Wait, what do you mean by that?"

"I just bluffed her casually, and you, as a team leader, couldn’t even see it, perhaps it’s time for some reflection," she said, her voice quite calm.

Qi Yan: ...

Was his intelligence being looked down upon?

This girl really had a sharp tongue.

"Anything else? If not...my family has come to pick me up."

Hearing her words, Qi Yan noticed Qin Zhen’s cousin had arrived.

"...Nothing else, you can go." Better leave early!

He could stand others being sassed, but that did not mean he enjoyed being sassed himself.

Before leaving, Rong Yan dropped a line: "I hope to hear some good news in the end."

Qi Yan: ...

Goodbye, no need to see you out.

Rong Yan walked towards Qin Ye coming her way, "Let’s go!"

Hearing her, Qin Ye knew she had handled her affairs here, so he nodded, "Okay."

They hadn’t ridden bicycles when they arrived, but luckily the weather was quite cooperative today, it was very overcast and there was a cooling breeze.

"Shall we go home now or to the Qin Family?" Rong Yan asked.

Qin Ye: "Wherever you want to go."

Rong Yan looked at him, "Then let’s go to the Qin Family first."

Qin Ye immediately nodded, "Okay!"

As the two walked back, Rong Yan asked, "Was the evidence for the report helped by your research institute?"

If it wasn’t the Qin Family, then it must have been Qin Ye himself leveraging his contacts, probably those from his new job.

What kind of speed was this? To gather the evidence in less than half a day?

Qin Ye knew his wife was always sharp-witted, yet he hadn’t expected her to guess so quickly.

"It was investigated by a special department, so the results came very quickly," Qin Ye had no desire to use the Qin Family’s power.

If the Qin Family could have done it that quickly, those two wouldn’t have been released so soon.

Seeing him admit it, Rong Yan didn’t ask further.

Qin Ye paused, then said, "I might come home less in the coming years, sometimes a few months, sometimes half a year."

Rong Yan, very understanding and generous, responded, "No worries, work is important."

Not having her husband around, but still having money to spend, that seemed like a good deal...

And seeing each other only after months or half a year, that felt like a honeymoon.

Qin Ye: ...

He felt like his wife didn’t seem to miss him much.

"Actually, if you want to find me, just come to my school."

Rong Yan felt she might be too busy to do that.

After all, if he was busy making a career, she had to get busy making money.

One of them had to make money, otherwise, what would support her wonderful life? Love? Don’t joke.

Love can’t be spent as money.

She had a whole family to support! Their home was a veritable gold-eating beast.

But sensing Qin Ye’s expectant gaze, she played her part dutifully, "Okay, when I miss you, I’ll try not to disturb you, but if it’s unbearable, then I will come to see you."

Qin Ye’s earlobes turned feverishly and frighteningly red.

As Rong Yan had just said those words, a passerby happened to overhear.

The passerby was quite shocked by her words; my goodness, how could she say such a thing in public...

***

Meanwhile, all other members of the Qin Family had gathered at Old Sir Qin’s place.

Mr. Qin was furious: "The Ming Family has gone too far, daring to use such vile methods."

Seeing his father’s rage, Qin Xiangnan hurriedly said, "Dad, don’t be so angry, take care of your health."

He shouldn’t have spoken. As soon as he did, Mr. Qin’s anger turned towards him, "Where is Qin Zhen? Hasn’t he come back yet?"

Qin Xiangnan immediately responded, "He’s busy, he hasn’t returned yet!"

Hearing he hadn’t returned, Mr. Qin continued glaring, "Look at your splendid son, can’t even clean up his own mess, this trouble has even fallen on Qin Ye and his wife; if it weren’t for their competence, who knows what might have happened."

Anyone less versed in medicine wouldn’t have detected such harmful substance in the potted plant.

Qin Xiangnan: ... My heart aches!

This was trouble caused by Qin Zhen, what did that have to do with him? Why was the anger directed at him?

"Alright, this isn’t Qin Zhen’s fault, it’s all because that Ming girl acts too cruelly. Plus, Ming Zuoshun’s current wife is also malicious, originally harboring a grudge against Qin Ye’s wife."

Once Old Master Qin spoke, Mr. Qin silenced himself.

"I just went to inquire a little, it seems there was some pressure from above, who exactly is it?" Qin Xiangbei was somewhat puzzled.

He had intended to go to the police station himself after knowing the Ming Family members were to be released.

Unexpectedly, there was no need for him to go at all.

This was rather strange.

Qin Xiangnan didn’t think too much and directly said, "What’s so strange about that, the nature of the matter is different... Jing City isn’t a place the Ming Family can completely control."

He and Mr. Qin were indeed father and son, both quite straightforward in personality.

Qin Xiangnan didn’t think so.

Mainly because the whole back and forth... was too quick.

Old Master Qin knew the reason, but he remained silent.

At this moment, Qin Ye and Rong Yan came in.

Upon seeing this young couple return, the Qin Family members immediately gathered around.

"Qin Ye’s Wife, those two were sent to the police station, what did the police say?" Qin Xiangnan asked.

Rong Yan, with a gentle smile, replied, "For those who make mistakes, the police station is a place of justice, they will surely be thoroughly investigated."

Qin Xiangnan nodded, "Well said, they should be thoroughly investigated."

Looking at how composed the couple was, Qin Xiangbei couldn’t help but give them a thumbs up.

"By the way, that Ming Zuoshun has been taken away, where did Qin Ye get the report materials from?"
