Chapter 143 Zhou Zhinan smells like a cat!

Then Zhou's father brought up another matter, "I called your great-aunt yesterday, and I'm planning to visit her at a suitable time."

“You might not be free during this time, and,” Zhou’s father glanced at Zhou Xiaohua, “Xiaohua isn’t suitable to see anyone right now. When you’re free later, and Xiaohua has returned to normal, the two of you will go and visit your great-aunt.”

Seeing that his father had changed the subject, Zhou Zhinan breathed a slight sigh of relief and then nodded to his father in agreement, "Okay."

After a quick breakfast, the men prepared to head out to work.

Zhou Zhinan was in a hurry and left in a rush. Moreover, because his mother had suddenly mentioned the "wedding," he couldn't help but feel flustered, so he left even more hastily.

After giving Zhou Xiaohua a few words of advice, Zhou Zhinan left the Zhou family's old house.

It's rush hour now, and as the saying goes, no matter how good your car is, you'll still get stuck in traffic.

Zhou Zhinan was stuck in traffic, which made him a little distracted. He remembered that his mother had suddenly brought up the wedding at the dinner table that morning.

He and Zhou Xiaohua were not actually in a romantic relationship, so how could there be a so-called wedding?

Zhou Zhinan found it amusing, yet he couldn't help but wonder if making the relationship between Zhou Xiaohua and Zhou Zhinan so complicated was a wise choice.

As the traffic moved slowly forward, Zhou Zhinan, lost in thought, actually began to imagine what his wedding with Zhou Xiaohua would be like.
Given Zhou Xiaohua's unpredictability, if something unexpected happens before the wedding, the Zhou family will at most face criticism. But if she suddenly turns into a cat during the wedding, it will cause a huge uproar.

He found it hard to imagine such a scene.

"Beep!"

The car horn suddenly brought Zhou Zhinan back to his senses. He subconsciously turned his head to look at the situation behind him, but it was just a normal horn sound, and nothing unexpected had happened.

Zhou Zhinan turned his head back to drive, but suddenly remembered what he had been thinking about.

The man couldn't help but click his tongue, and finally muttered a curse under his breath.

When Zhou Zhinan arrived at the police station and got out of the car, all his chaotic emotions had been sorted out, and he strode into the building.

However, after walking a few steps, Zhou Zhinan suddenly stopped and turned his head to look at the few small heads that were peeking out from the grass beside him.

Zhou Zhinan looked at them and said in a serious tone, "Zhou Xiaohua is busy these two days. Come and play with her again in a while."

After saying that, without waiting for the children's reaction, Zhou Zhinan walked back into the building.

When he arrived at the office, everyone was having breakfast. Seeing Zhou Zhinan come in, he casually asked, "Captain Zhou, are you eating?"

"I've already eaten," Zhou Zhinan shook his head in refusal and quickly walked towards his seat.

The others quickly finished their meal, and after Zhou Zhinan sat down, he looked at the two workstations that had just been set up the day before.

Those were Xue Ning and Chen Meiqiu's workstations, and both were still empty at the moment; they hadn't arrived yet.

Zhou Zhinan stared in that direction for a long time, and no one knew what he was thinking at that moment.

After everyone had almost finished breakfast, Zhou Zhinan said, "Let's tidy up and have a meeting first."

Everyone quickly tidied up, and instead of going to the meeting room, they simply moved a space out of the office, pulled over a whiteboard, and started the meeting.

Halfway through the meeting, Xue Ning and Chen Meiqiu finally arrived late. Chen Meiqiu seemed very happy, with a bright smile on his face, but he was stunned when he saw the scene in the office.

After a moment of silence and staring at each other, Chen Meiqiu said, "Are we too late?"

Zhou Zhinan didn't say whether it was late or not, he just told them, "Please sit down first."

After saying this, Zhou Zhinan ignored them and continued talking about the case.

Xue Ning and Chen Meiqiu came in, but they didn't go up to disturb them. Instead, they went to the desk that had been arranged for them and sat down.

At this moment, Zhou Zhinan was completely focused on the case and did not pay attention to the two people. Because of this, Zhou Zhinan missed some small details.

After sitting down, Chen Meiqiu originally intended to behave himself for a while, but as soon as he sat down, he vaguely smelled some unusual odor and couldn't help but sniff.

The more he sniffed, the stronger the scent became, but just as he caught a glimpse of it, the scent faded away, as if it had just been his imagination.

Chen Meiqiu couldn't resist taking an even stronger sniff.

Xue Ning was right next to Chen Meiqiu and naturally noticed his little actions. She lowered her voice and asked, "What are you doing?"

Chen Meiqiu glanced at Xue Ning, then looked around, seemingly to check if the area was safe; his actions appeared somewhat sleazy.

Xue Ning resisted the urge to roll her eyes and looked at Chen Meiqiu, wondering what stupid thing he was going to do next.

A moment later, Chen Meiqiu looked at Xue Ning again, his eyes sparkling. He moved slightly closer to Xue Ning and said in a low, mysterious voice, "I can smell it!"

Xue Ning, who had initially looked impatient, became slightly more serious upon hearing Chen Meiqiu's words. She moved closer to Chen Meiqiu and asked in a low voice, "Tell me."

Chen Meiqiu continued, "It's the smell of that cat. I smelled it on that man. They must have seen it last night."

As he spoke, Chen Meiqiu glanced at Zhou Zhinan, who was speaking, and Xue Ning also glanced at him before quickly looking away.

"What do you think we should do next?" Chen Meiqiu was a little excited. He really wanted to see the cat and see what was going on.

Xue Ning hesitated for a moment before saying, "Let's not rush, let's wait until we're sure."

“But how can we be sure if we don’t see the cat?” Chen Meiqiu felt that Xue Ning’s arrangement was problematic.

Before Xue Ning could speak, Chen Meiqiu said with absolute certainty, "There's definitely something wrong. Otherwise, why didn't Zhou Zhinan bring that cat? Wasn't it because he was afraid of being discovered?"

"No, there's another possibility." Chen Meiqiu suddenly looked at Xue Ning with a look of horror. "Do you think it's possible that Zhou Zhinan suddenly noticed the cat's abnormality, so he just imprisoned it?"

"There are so many bad humans out there! What if he discovers something unusual about the cat and wants to study it?"

Xue Ning couldn't help but look at Chen Meiqiu speechlessly, "Your imagination is indeed quite rich."

"Is this just my vivid imagination? This is based on my experience!" Chen Meiqiu was unhappy again when he saw that she didn't trust him.

"Then what do you want to do?" Xue Ning asked back.
