Chapter 166 Everyone is protecting Zhou Xiaohua

The man knew very well that Zhou Xiaohua's agitation couldn't have been without reason.

As usual, Zhou Zhinan took out a tablet and asked Zhou Xiaohua to type on it.

Although Xiaohua was a little upset, she still told Zhou Zhinan about her dream on the tablet, but she didn't tell him that she was almost scared to death.

After listening, Zhou Zhinan patted Zhou Xiaohua's head and said, "It was just a dream, it's okay."

"Meow!"

"But she's really scary!"

After saying that, Xiaohua realized something was wrong; it should have been meant to scare the cat.

However, she belatedly realized that the woman couldn't possibly have hurt her, since she was already dead.

Zhou Zhinan looked tired. He raised his hand and ran a hand through his hair, saying in a slightly hoarse voice, "I'm going to sleep for a while."

Xiao Hua had just woken up and wasn't actually sleepy, but she could tell that Zhou Zhinan was tired.

"Meow~"

"it is good."

She obediently agreed, and then stayed quietly by Zhou Zhinan's side without moving around anymore.

Before long, Zhou Zhinan had fallen asleep leaning against the chair. Xiao Hua wasn't sleepy at first, but after lying quietly for a while, she also closed her eyes.

The next day.

Xiaohua almost fell again after rolling over, but luckily she suddenly woke up and quickly steadied herself.

I opened my eyes and looked around in a daze. I was in the office inside. There was no one there, but I could hear sounds coming from the office area outside.

Xiao Hua yawned widely before stepping outside.

Everyone was already busy with work, but Xiaohua stood there, seemingly unsure of what to do.

Xiao Tao noticed and immediately said, "Hua Hua is awake. Does she want something to eat?"

As Xiao Hua spoke, she looked over and saw Xiao Tao walking towards her. He then squatted down in front of her and was about to hug her. Xiao Hua did not struggle and was picked up by Xiao Tao.

"The boss is in the interrogation room right now. He prepared breakfast for you. I'll bring it to you." Xiao Tao said as she walked to another, slightly empty area. There was no dining table there, but they would make do with their meals there when they were busy.

Xiao Tao placed Xiao Hua on the table, then took out a thermos from a nearby insulated bag. Inside was Xiao Hua's breakfast.

After opening it, Xiao Tao arranged the layers neatly, saying, "Okay, you can eat now."

Looking at the food Xiaohua wanted to eat, Xiaotao seemed somewhat surprised, yet not surprised at the same time. In any case, she didn't say anything, but just looked at Xiaohua gently.

Little Flower had no idea what Little Tao was thinking. When it saw breakfast, it also felt hungry, called out to Little Tao, and then began to eat.

Xiaohua had only taken a few bites when she suddenly stopped and remained motionless in one position.

After watching for a few seconds, Xiao Tao asked with some confusion, "What's wrong with Hua Hua?"

Xiao Hua glanced at Xiao Tao, a strange emotion flashing in her eyes.

Xiao Tao was completely bewildered, having no idea what was going on.

Just then, a "tap tap tap" sound came from the doorway. Xiao Hua looked towards the door, and Xiao Tao followed suit.

Soon, a man and a woman appeared at the door, and a hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Tao's eyes. Xue Ning stood at the office door and immediately saw Zhou Xiaohua inside. She smiled brightly at Zhou Xiaohua.

Xiao Hua just watched without making any move.

The next moment, Xue Ning pretended to knock on the door, and when everyone looked over, she casually asked, "Good morning, I'm here to see your team leader Zhou."

Everyone paused for a moment before someone answered, "Team Leader Zhou is busy right now."

Xue Ning nodded. "Is it convenient for me to come in and wait for him?"

This was, after all, a criminal investigation office, and no one knew whether or not they could let her in. After some hesitation, they all looked at Xiao Tao.

After a brief two-second silence, Xiao Tao nodded and said, "Come in first."

Xue Ning then walked over, followed by the clueless Chen Meiqiu.

When Xiao Tao saw Xue Ning walking towards her, she suddenly felt a little nervous for some reason, and almost instinctively she stepped in front of Xiao Hua to block her.

When Xue Ning saw this scene, she was actually quite surprised. She wondered what was going on with the person in front of her.
Do you also know about Zhou Xiaohua's situation?
What's going on with Zhou Zhinan? Why do so many people know about such a serious matter? Isn't he afraid of causing problems?
Whether it was at the Zhou family's house last time or with this Officer Tao, her first impression was that they were protecting Zhou Xiaohua.

This made Xue Ning's emotions somewhat complicated.

This seems to be different from what she imagined.

"Hua Hua, we meet again." Xue Ning tilted her head slightly to look at Zhou Xiaohua behind Xiao Tao. She was not only greeting Zhou Xiaohua, but also letting Xiao Tao know that they had met before.

Sure enough, after hearing Xue Ning's words, Xiao Tao's wariness lessened and was replaced by a hint of doubt, as if she was wondering when they had met before.

Xue Ning only came for a couple of days recently, while Hua Hua didn't come to the bureau at all during that time.

They hadn't met at the bureau, so they must have met privately.

Xiao Hua squatted on the table and responded faintly to Xue Ning's greeting.

"Meow~"

"Hello there."

Xiao Hua looked at Xue Ning, wondering what they were here for.

Was she looking for Zhou Zhinan because of herself?
Xiaohua's eyes also showed confusion and bewilderment.

As they were talking, Xue Ning walked over, first glancing at Xiao Tao, and then reaching out to pat Zhou Xiaohua's head.

After touching it, Xue Ning couldn't hold back any longer. Like a cat-loving fanatic, she excitedly and exaggeratedly said, "How can you be so cute?"

Xiao Hua was given a pat and struggled to stay upright so as not to be pushed onto the table. However, when she looked at Xue Ning again, her eyes were a little strange.

Chen Meiqiu snorted arrogantly, but Xue Ning ignored him completely and instead said to Zhou Xiaohua, "Can I hug you?"

Xiaohua hesitated for a moment, then decided to refuse Xue Ning.

But Xue Ning didn't give her any time to refuse and simply picked her up in his arms.

The commotion here was quite significant, but everyone was busy with work, so after watching for a while, they stopped paying attention.

Xiao Tao did the same, except she took a moment to send a message to Zhou Zhinan, and while busy with work, she would occasionally check on the situation here.

Half an hour later, just as Zhou Xiaohua was about to run away from Xue Ning's embrace, Zhou Zhinan returned.

Upon seeing Zhou Zhinan, Xue Ning slightly composed herself, and Zhou Xiaohua seized the opportunity to quickly run away from her arms.
