Silver Snow Line [Criminal Investigation]

Due to her biological clock, Xie Qingfei woke up before dawn. When she opened her eyes, Wei Cheng was lying beside her, sleeping uneasily. A little morning light shone on the outline of his face, with a hint of light red in the pale gold.
Xie Qingfei touched his forehead and found that he had a low fever.

The temperature of her palm was comfortable compared to his abnormal body temperature. Wei Cheng also longed for this coolness in his sleep, and unconsciously put his head in her hand like a puppy. Xie Qingfei did not get up immediately, and cooperated for a while as a human-shaped temperature-reducing device. He seemed to be comforted, and his breath became longer and longer. When the sky was completely bright, his body temperature finally returned to normal.

After getting up, Xie Qingfei helped him pack his things for discharge from the hospital. After Wei Cheng finished washing up, his girlfriend had already packed her luggage and was waiting for him to come home.

Of course the most important thing before going back is to go to the pet store to pick up He He. As something happened suddenly, Wei Cheng had to ask the store clerk to help take care of He He for a few days. The cat probably thought that Wei Cheng was serious about what he said, "Don't go home if you don't listen". After being "exiled" for so many days, it didn't know how to think about its "cat life". After getting in the car, the way it looked at Wei Cheng was not right, and its usual cute and coquettish moves turned into a respectful "meow".

Xie Qingfei was amused when he saw this: "I've never seen it scare anyone. You're just too proud."
"It listens to me, and I listen to you," Wei Cheng tilted his chin, "Isn't that right?"
Haha, I didn't want to pay any attention to this hateful human being, but due to his tyranny and my own low status in the family, I had no choice but to admit it.

Its PTSD continued until Xie Qingfei ordered Wei Cheng not to leave the room and rolled up his sleeves to cook himself.
The faucet in the kitchen was just turned on, and the sound of water stimulated a cat who didn't like taking a bath. He stretched out his front legs and bared his teeth. Obviously, the tyrant had been punished by the shit shoveler, but he still jumped into the sink reflexively, shivering with an expression as if he was about to be executed, signaling Xie Qing to come quickly if he wanted to wash or rinse.

"I'm washing vegetables, go play while I do it." Xie Qingfei took it out and said with a smile, "Have you fallen in love with taking a bath?"
Hehe took the opportunity to complain to her in a wronged manner. Most humans could not understand what it was saying. Xie Qingfei automatically understood that it was accusing Wei Cheng of abandoning the baby. She comforted the giant baby in front of her and generously gave it more food.
The food at home is so delicious. Haha, when it sees the food, it immediately forgives the whole world and happily returns to its territory to enjoy lunch.

When Wei Cheng waited until Xie Qingfei really brought the casserole to him, he thought very seriously whether he should go and ease the relationship with Hehe so that he could share some of its cat food.

Captain Xie's cooking skills were not influenced by him at all. The color, aroma and taste were not complete, and his best level was to process some simple semi-finished products. But considering that his nutrition needs were guaranteed during his special period, he insisted on buying fresh ingredients to make some nourishing soup for him.
Wei Cheng looked at the pot lid and hesitated to lift it. He asked, "Is this sweet or salty?"
Xie Qingfei thought for a few seconds and said with a lack of confidence: "Cooked."

Yeah.

He encouraged himself in his heart, then opened the lid of the pot, and a wave of hot air hit him. He couldn't see what was inside, but suddenly his eyes felt a little hot. After many assumptions, he felt that no matter whether it was too salty or too sweet, it would at least not be harmful to the human body under the guarantee of being "cooked".
But he really never thought that this thing could be smelly.

Wei Cheng suddenly became serious and looked at Xie Qingfei solemnly: "I love you very much, you know that, right?"
Xie Qingfei was confused by his sudden commotion: "What's wrong?"
"No matter what happens in the future, I will always remember that safety comes first and I will never put myself in danger again. I want to be with you forever and walk with you forever."
Xie Qingfei slowly raised his eyebrows.
"So I won't eat this for now. Haha, you must be tired from being so busy. Thank you for your hard work. I'll go cook."
After saying that, Wei Cheng ran out swiftly with the casserole in his hand, bringing with him a gust of wind.

But he was reluctant to throw away his kindness. After all, he had tasted all the strange things Xie Qingfei made every time he went to the kitchen. So he picked up the spoon, scooped a mouthful and put it into his mouth.
After thinking for a moment, Wei Cheng vomited into the trash can, thinking: the drug reaction has started again.

The next day, colleagues from the team came to visit and enjoyed Dr. Wei’s cooking. They had a very enjoyable meal.
Hehe is a show-off. The more guests there are at home, the more he shows off. He knows how to act cute around people without the owner's instruction. However, after being hugged and sucked by Xi Ming for 800 rounds, his happy eyes began to fade, and he finally had to crawl under the sofa to avoid his fanatical fans.

After dinner, Zhao Chongyun helped put the dishes into the dishwasher. When there were only him and Wei Cheng in the kitchen, the atmosphere seemed to be separated from the lively atmosphere outside.

Wei Cheng didn't intend to pay attention to him. Instead, he stood by the island, hesitating several times and seemed to want to say something.
Seeing that the marble tabletop was about to be scratched by him, Wei Cheng spoke first helplessly: "What do you want to tell me?"
"Nothing." Zhao Chongyun touched the back of his head and looked away. "Oh, by the way, are you feeling better? I heard that the blocking period will be very uncomfortable. Will it be better after this period?"
Wei Cheng said concisely: "Yes."
He breathed a sigh of relief.

Wei Cheng was a little surprised that he was actually worried about him.

Then Zhao Chongyun whispered, "You must be healthy and live a long life, so that you can always take care of my master."
Wei Cheng immediately smiled: "It is my duty to take care of your master all the time, but wouldn't it be too difficult to live forever?"
Zhao Chongyun realized that he had said something stupid, and turned around in annoyance: "Anyway, this is what I meant, you can do whatever you want."
Wei Cheng looked at his back as he almost walked away with his hands and feet twitching, but he didn't laugh at him.
Love is protection, and you will feel satisfied when you see the other person happy. He understands Zhao Chongyun's feelings.

Back in the living room, the group of people were talking about something that made Xie Qingfei blush.
Wei Cheng walked over and sat down beside her, pulling her into his arms, only seeing her pink earlobes.
Lu Shaohui was the first to start the commotion: "Doctor Wei, we are helping you to ask Captain Xie for recognition. If you have any ideas, please say a few words."
"Captain Xie's ideas are my ideas," Wei Cheng put his arm around Xie Qingfei's shoulders and smiled a little roguely, "What do you think, Captain Xie?"
"What are you talking about?" Xie Qingfei looked at him with a smile, and raised his chin with his index finger, "Will you come home with me for the New Year?"
Wei Cheng raised his eyebrows at Lu Shaohui: "Now you know who I am?"

The onlookers looked impressed and laughed at him for not knowing how to entertain guests. Who would serve dog food as dessert after a meal?

At this time, Xi Ming suddenly stood up with his phone in hand: "Okay, everyone, please listen to me."
He typed a few words very seriously, and then said in front of everyone's puzzled eyes: "Director Cheng, ask if I am free to have dinner together tomorrow night."
Xie Qingfei: "So?"
"Tsk, what are you so proud of? The food is here, can spring be far behind?" Xi Ming snorted, "Don't think you're the only ones who can show affection."
Then he was dragged down by several claws. Amidst the chaos, there were several accusations: "Xi Xiaoming, how dare you betray the organization!"
Hehe took advantage of the chaos to pop his head out from under the sofa, and stepped on his godfather a few times in the confusion: Who told you to almost pull out my fur?

The twelfth lunar month seems to be created to wait for the New Year, and the pace of work has slowed down as a result.

The day before New Year's Eve, the hospital called and said Jiang Ke had woken up. Wei Cheng's one-month checkup report happened to come out on that day, so he went to the hospital with Xie Qingfei.

The two guarding police officers greeted the visitor and entered the ward. Jiang Ke seemed to be in good condition.
The doctor said that he was lucky to be young and in good physical condition and to have met Wei Cheng passing by. Although he could not make it home for the New Year, he could still have Yuanxiao with his family.

Jiang Ke's chest was wrapped in bandages and his head was covered in white. He had been unconscious for more than half a month and his spirit was almost dampened. When he saw Xie Qingfei, his first reaction was to cover his face: "Why did you come to see me? I told you I was going to wash my face."
Xie Qingfei: "I don't care whether you are handsome or ugly, I just came to see you and have a few questions to ask you."
Jiang Ke: "No need to ask, I am willing."
Xie Qingfei: "..."

Although Wei Cheng acted separately from her and was not here at all, he was a jealous person in his previous life. She immediately warned him: "Paralysis can't stop you from talking."
"My mouth was broken again." Jiang Ke had half his head covered with gauze, but he still had the leisure to flirt with her. "But I'm really surprised that you came to see me. Have you finally discovered my charm and are planning to give Qin Jiashu a try instead?"
Xie Qingfei raised his eyebrows: "You keep calling Qin Jiashu, do you still care about Gan Tian?"

When Jiang Ke mentioned this, his expression turned cold for a moment, but he quickly covered it up and said in a nonchalant tone, "Have you inquired about my affairs and heard other people talking nonsense?"
Xie Qingfei: "I just had a chat with Qin Jiashu."
Jiang Ke sneered: "Do you believe whatever he says? Damn it, this green tea girl doesn't know how to make up stories about me behind my back, but everyone buys into his lies. I tell you, do you know what it means to be slandered by the public?"
"You actually understand this as well?" Xie Qingfei said in an exaggerated tone, "I thought people like you who make dirty jokes about girls online had no moral bottom line. It turns out you're also afraid of rumors."

Jiang Ke was obviously panicked: "What do you mean online? What did I say?"
Xie Qingfei sneered at his pretense of calmness: "Don't play dumb. The website that ranked the most beautiful girls in the school during the days you were unconscious has been shut down by the police. Everything you said on it has been recorded. Do you want me to read a few sentences to you?"
"What on earth do you want to do, Xi?" Jiang Ke said through gritted teeth.
"I'm not a student at Shenggong University, and my name isn't Xi Ming." Xie Qingfei unfolded his ID in front of him as he stared at her in shock. "When I first met you, I was investigating a dismemberment case."

Jiang Ke was filled with shock one after another. Before he could recover from her identity, he was struck by another sentence and forgot to speak.
He recalled every time he met her before the accident, and the characters that appeared in their conversations...
Jiang Ke asked with trembling lips: "Who is the dead person?"

Xie Qingfei: "Sweet."

Jiang Ke's pupils shrank suddenly. He grasped the bed sheet with the needle in his hand and raised his upper body a little higher. He said in disbelief, "Did Qin Jiashu do it? Damn, is he crazy?"
Xie Qingfei didn't comment: "You just said that Qin Jiashu was plotting against you behind your back, why? What happened between you and him? Is it related to Gan Tian?"
Jiang Ke struggled to digest her barrage of questions, took a deep breath, and then spoke slowly.
"It's because of Gan Tian. She didn't reject me because she didn't like me. It was that bastard Qin Jiashu who stole my girl behind my back!"

Jiang Ke said that he did fall in love with Gan Tian at first sight after seeing her photo on the website, so he went to the Foreign Languages ​​College to meet her by chance and found an excuse to talk to her.
And he was a boy with pretty good physical conditions. Although his way of pursuing people was a bit awkward and overbearing, it didn't annoy Gan Tian. From her initial polite refusal to her acceptance to go to the cafeteria with him, everything went smoothly. It was just because she had never been in a relationship, so she was inevitably a little defensive, and most girls were shy in this regard, so their relationship had not made any progress. However, Jiang Ke was already very satisfied that she was willing to talk to him, so he treated her as his girlfriend and occasionally pushed a little further. Xie Qingfei heard his tone that was increasingly inconsistent with his personality, and frowned and said, "Do you really like her?"

"Nonsense, if I didn't like her, I would have nothing better to do than feed her cat. The golden lion king in our school is so dirty, how can he be cute? I squat on the roadside after class every day to guard him. If anyone bullies him, I will find someone to settle the score. My friends laughed at me to death. Also, she and her roommate, whose surname is Huang, something like Yao, went out to play too late and the school gate was closed. Wasn't it me who put my head down as a stool for her to climb over the wall? Do you think anyone can bully me? What's the use of her participating in campus activities just because she is beautiful? They are all selected internally. If I hadn't secretly bought cigarettes for those people in the student union, she wouldn't be able to go on stage no matter how talented she is. And I don't like her, and I worry about her every day and I'm almost like her biological father."

"Then why aren't you together?" Xie Qingfei could tell from his expression that he was not lying, so he became even more curious.

"It's all because of Qin Jiashu!" Jiang Ke said, "I treated him as a good friend and asked him how to pursue girls and how to get Gan Tian to agree to be my girlfriend. I followed his advice every step of the way, but Gan Tian became increasingly cold towards me. After I confessed my love at the music festival, she was so angry that she refused to talk to me anymore. I still don't know why."

Of course, it was because no girl liked being forced into agreeing to something she was unwilling to do in public in such a moral kidnapping way. If they truly respected and loved each other, they would not be willing to embarrass each other. Jiang Ke did not understand this detail, and he did not know how many thunder points he had stepped on in the usual interactions with girls. He only knew that Gan Tian did not want to pay attention to him, and he was eager to confirm the relationship with her as soon as possible to wait for the relationship to warm up, and all this pushed Gan Tian further and further away.

"You asked Qin Jiashu for advice? Aren't you a..." Xie Qingfei said, "a playboy" and then changed his words, "A romantic who has been in many relationships?"
Jiang Ke's face turned pale, and he said with some shame: "It's not like I was born in love with a girl. I was still a virgin when I pursued her!"
Xie Qingfei: "..."

She rubbed her forehead and asked again: "Do you have AIDS?"
Jiang Ke was stunned for a moment, and said in horror: "How can you spread rumors like this?"
"No?"
"Of course not! I neither visit prostitutes nor have affairs with other women. No, who do you think I am?" Jiang Ke felt insulted.
Xue Kai wanted to avenge his dirty words and wanted him to die with such infamy.
Xie Qingfei breathed a sigh of relief: "Go on. What happened after you were completely rejected by Gan Tian."

"Later... I knew they were together. I wasn't too angry at first, but I felt uncomfortable. I went home and talked about it with my cousin. I couldn't understand why Qin Jiashu was better than me. But my cousin told me..." Jiang Ke's mood turned bad again when he said this, "This kind of pursuit is what girls dislike the most, so even if I'm Daniel Wu, Gan Tian won't even look at me. It's so funny. I did lose to Qin Jiashu, but not in terms of feelings. This bastard has never had good intentions! I'm still on good terms with him? Get out of here."

Xie Qingfei didn't know what to say. He felt like Jiang Ke had a sign with the words "vicious" on his head. "So you're just going to let it go? You haven't spoken for yourself?"
"Who would believe me if I said that?" Jiang Ke laughed at himself. "Qin Jiashu is a gentleman and a great man. What about me? No matter how much I say, people will only think that I can't stand losing and am desperate."

Even the police didn't take him seriously at first. Qin Jiashu's statement to the police was that Jiang Ke was a playboy who always changed girlfriends. This was true, but without emphasizing the timeline, it was easy for people to mistakenly believe that Jiang Ke was such a person from beginning to end. On this basis, Qin Jiashu would be believed no matter how he described Jiang Ke's bad character and made some montage-style lies about his relationship with Gan Tian.

After being backstabbed by his brother, the girl he liked also hated him. Jiang Ke had never suffered such an injustice before. Not to mention that his temperament changed drastically, he was really a rotten person. He simply gave up on himself and became a playboy. Others knew what kind of person he was, and their purpose of dating him was also very pure. This kind of relationship without talking about feelings and just seeking comfort quickly paralyzed his nerves, so when he met Qin Jiashu, he couldn't help but get angry.

As for the sweetness...

"I feel uncomfortable when I see her and Qin Jiashu being so close. She is also a fool. She is being played around by a green tea girl and she doesn't even know it. I have been licking her like a dog for so long."

He really liked her, but the hatred he felt later was also real. He followed the trend and made fun of other people's sex life, but he didn't feel good after it was over. They were a perfect match, but he was a lost dog who could only curse on the Internet. If he had this free time, he might as well find two beautiful girls to cool off.

Xie Qingfei didn't sympathize with him at all. He sneered and said, "Is it difficult for you to respect women? You really deserve it."
Jiang Ke had no confidence to refute her accusation. After all, he still remembered what he had done behind her back because he didn't have her contact information, and all of this might have been clearly investigated by the police.

"You are very beautiful. I admit that I was attracted to you the first time I saw you, but I never force anyone. If I hadn't seen you walking with Qin Jiashu later, and you had deliberately used him to irritate me..." Jiang Ke's voice became weaker and weaker, "I didn't actually want to do anything to you."

"Forget it." Perhaps knowing that he had no credibility, he changed the subject and asked, "So why did Qin Jiashu want to kill Gan Tian? Was he the one who pushed me down the stairs?"
Xie Qingfei shook his head: "The murderer of Gan Tian was not Qin Jiashu, but Xue Kai, just like the person who pushed you down the stairs."
"Xue Kai?" Jiang Ke couldn't remember who this person was. He thought about it for a long time before asking incredulously, "The dog following Qin Jiashu?"
"No, no," he almost forgot he was talking to the police, he immediately changed the subject, "His roommate Xue Kai?"

Jiang Ke could not accept the affirmative answer even more than if the murderer was Qin Jiashu. He asked in bewilderment, "How could it be him? What's wrong with this idiot? How did Gan Tian offend him?"
Xie Qingfei briefly told him the situation that could be made public. Jiang Ke was stunned for a long time after listening to it: "Fuck, I'm really convinced..."
Then came the fear: "He killed me because Gan Tian was really interested in me?"
Xie Qingfei asked him back: "How was your relationship at the beginning?"

The relationship...is pretty good.

Jiang Ke closed his eyes and could still remember the day when he dragged Qin Jiashu to the Foreign Languages ​​College. Gan Tian came out of the teaching building with her classmates, holding her textbooks. The sunlight was glaring, so he couldn't see anyone around her clearly. Only her smile was engraved in his heart and he could not forget it for a long time.
Later, he stood beside her for a short while, and that smile became his exclusive, lighting up many of his days and nights.

When Xie Qingfei left the ward, Wei Cheng was already waiting at the door with his report.
Seeing her coming, he turned sideways expressionlessly.

Xie Qingfei stepped forward and punched him rudely: "Don't pretend. What's the result?"
Wei Cheng opened the report sheet and smiled, "Negative."

On the way from the hospital to the parking lot, the two of them happened to run into Xu Siruo. He spotted Xie Qingfei first and ran over to her, shouting, "Sister!"
Then he looked at her worriedly and asked, "Why are you in the hospital? Are you feeling unwell?"
Before Xie Qingfei could say anything, Wei Cheng, who was standing next to him and was ignored as if he were invisible, coughed twice.
Only then did Xu Siruo notice his presence and called out "Uncle" stiffly.

Xie Qingfei didn't answer his question, and said, "What about you, are you sick?"
"No, no!" Xu Siruo held a stack of papers in his hand and said to her as if to ask for credit, "I'm here to get my physical examination report. Because of you... so I come here for a physical examination every six months. My physical condition is very good. Sister, do you want to take a look?"
Xie Qingfei: "..."

She can now confirm that this child is her walking dark history.

But Wei Cheng was still instigating, "Don't you want to take a look, sister? People are so enthusiastic."
Xie Qingfei glared at him. He called her "sister" in a weird tone, not sweet at all.

Xu Siruo couldn't tell whether what she said was good or bad, so he looked at her expectantly.
Xie Qingfei was in a dilemma and pressed his temple: "Is it appropriate for you to call Wei Cheng uncle and me sister?"
Xu Siruo tilted his head in confusion: "But didn't we agree on this last time? Then, what else can I call you?"
"Aunt." Xie Qingfei said, "Aunt, do you understand what I mean?"

Xu Siruo opened his mouth in astonishment, looked at her, and then looked at Wei Cheng who was trying hard to suppress the corners of his lips.

"Let's go." Xie Qingfei patted Xu Siruo on the shoulder.
Seeing Wei Cheng still standing there, she turned back in surprise and said to him, "Let's go."
"Oh."
Wei Cheng followed behind her with light steps.
I thought to myself: Cool.
