Chapter 433 Creating an Opportunity to Meet

Xiao Xu quickly pulled the person away, "Tang Yiping, did you date Qi Shuo?"

"He's terrifying." Tang Yiping repeated this phrase incoherently, "He's a devil, no, he's more terrifying than a devil."

Jiang Yuan washed the drool off her arm with rainwater and said in a flat tone, "Qi Shuo used to love you very much, didn't he?"

Tang Yiping looked somewhat dazed. "Does he love me?"

She could hardly remember that Qi Shuo had ever loved her.

The past flashed before my eyes like frames from a movie.

With tears welling up in her eyes, Tang Yiping choked out, "Yes, Qi Shuo used to love me very much, but later he hated me so much."

Jiang Yuan followed up by asking, "Can you tell me why?"

"Because I was wrong." Tang Yiping cried helplessly. "I did something wrong, and Qi Shuo got angry. He was furious."

Xiao Xu: "What did you do wrong?"

"I..." Tang Yiping trembled all over, "I just didn't mean to."

Jiang Yuan narrowed her eyes slightly, "What did you accidentally do?"

"I hit him..." Tang Yiping covered her mouth and murmured, "His wife and children... I hit them."

Jiang Yuan frowned slightly, it seemed that Qi Shuo's words were very likely true. "Are you willing to come with us to the police station to give a statement?"

"Go to the police station?" Tang Yiping thought for a moment, then said excitedly, "Okay, I'll go to the police station with you. I killed Qi Shuo's wife and children, so arrest me."

She wants to go to jail.

Rather than living a life that's neither human nor ghost here, I'd rather go to jail.

**
In the interrogation room, Tang Yiping confessed to her past with Qi Shuo and admitted to the crime of driving her car to hit Qi Shuo's wife and child.

Her account matched Qi Shuo's perfectly.

Not only that, Tang Yiping also said that she was not forced to marry by her aunt back then. She just felt that Qi Shuo's family was rich, and if she could live in the Qi family, she would definitely live a better life than in her aunt's family.

Xiao Xu looked at her in disbelief, "You were only a few years old back then, and you already had such thoughts..."

"It's all out of necessity." Tang Yiping was unusually calm at this moment, looking like a mentally sound person.

Jiang Yuan and Xiao Xu left the interrogation room, both feeling somewhat emotional.

Tang Yiping and Qi Shuo both made mistakes.

Life is indeed like a game of chess; one wrong move leads to another.

Qi Shuo's case has now come to an end.

Jiang Yuan left the police station and drove to the wildlife conservation base to check on Xiao Wang's younger brother.

Duan Yunzhou told her that Xiao Wang's younger brother would have a chance to fly again once he recovered from his injuries, but it would take time.

Jiang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good that there's hope."

Animals, like humans, sometimes cannot accept becoming disabled.

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "Dr. Duan, thank you so much for your help this time. I'll treat you to dinner another day."

"Another day?" Duan Yunzhou smiled gently. "Miss Jiang, you don't have time today?"

Jiang Yuan blinked and immediately understood what the other person meant. "Do you have time today, Dr. Duan?"

"Convenient." Duan Yunzhou nodded. "I can leave work now."

Actually, he was on leave today and didn't have to come to the base. He only came because he heard that Jiang Yuan was coming to see Xiao Wang's younger brother.

"Okay." Jiang Yuan asked, "What would Dr. Duan like to eat? Are there any dietary restrictions?"

"I don't have any dietary restrictions," Duan Yunzhou said with a smile. "I'm not picky about food; I'll just choose whatever Miss Jiang likes."

Jiang Yuan couldn't think of many dishes at the moment. "How about hot pot and barbecue?"

"OK."

"Then I'll send you the restaurant's location, and we'll meet there?"

Duan Yunzhou hesitated and said, "Miss Jiang, if it's convenient, could you give me a ride?"

Jiang Yuan gave a blank "Ah". Duan Yunzhou looked embarrassed: "My car was taken to the 4S shop for maintenance. I took a taxi to the base."

"I see." Jiang Yuan nodded. "Then Dr. Duan will ride in my car."

"Thank you," Duan Yunzhou said gratefully.

As night fell, the car sped along the highway. The car was quiet, and Jiang Yuan gripped the steering wheel, her eyes full of seriousness.

She was afraid the other person would strike up a conversation with her.

Duan Yunzhou turned his head to look at her profile through the car window, a smile playing on his lips.

He didn't speak to Jiang Yuan the whole way, worried that it would affect her driving and also that it might offend her.

Only after the car stopped did Duan Yunzhou praise, "Very few girls can drive so steadily."

"Really?" Jiang Yuan said, a little happy. "It's probably because I was driving very carefully."

She asked Fu Xiaoxiao to help her reserve a table, so she didn't have to wait when she entered the store.

"This restaurant was highly recommended by my friend," Jiang Yuan said after we sat down. "You can have barbecue or hot pot."

“Perfect,” Duan Yunzhou said with a smile.

Jiang Yuan handed the menu to the other person, "Dr. Duan, please see what you would like to eat."

"Okay." Duan Yunzhou took the menu.

After he finished ordering, Jiang Yuan noticed that he had also chosen a dessert, and raised her eyebrows slightly, saying, "You like cake?"

Duan Yunzhou replied with a smile, "I ordered it for you."

Jiang Yuan paused for two seconds before saying, "Thank you. Aren't you going to eat?"

"Then please help me choose one, Miss Jiang."

"it is good."

After ordering and placing the order, Jiang Yuan took a few sips of tea and forced herself to start a conversation: "Is Dr. Duan usually busy with work?"

"It depends." Duan Yunzhou also took a few sips of tea. "Although I'm busy most of the time, I still take vacations. After all, people need to relax sometimes."

“Indeed,” Jiang Yuan agreed. “A balance between work and rest.”

Duan Yunzhou also started a conversation, "Sometimes I can even find time to watch your live streams. I think the last one was at the zoo."

Jiang Yuan: "Yes, in the Lion Garden."

"Thunder and Aofeng are both adorable."

"They're like a pair of bickering lovers."

"..."

When it comes to animals, the two have quite a few things to talk about.

Jiang Yuan consulted about some animal health issues, while Duan Yunzhou envied her ability to communicate with animals.

The meal was very enjoyable.

When Jiang Yuan went to pay the bill, she discovered that Duan Yunzhou had already paid.

She turned to look at the other person, her brows furrowing slightly. "Dr. Duan, didn't you say I was treating?"

"I don't have the habit of letting girls treat me to meals," Duan Yunzhou explained. "Miss Jiang, how about you treat me to a cup of coffee instead?"

Jiang Yuan nodded: "Okay, next time we'll send it directly to your base."

Duan Yunzhou didn't mean that; he just wanted to create an opportunity for their next meeting.

As they reached the restaurant entrance, Jiang Yuan turned to the other person and asked, "Dr. Duan, where do you live? I'll take you there."

"Miss Jiang, there's no need to trouble yourself," Duan Yunzhou said with a smile. "I'll just take a taxi back."

"No trouble at all," Jiang Yuan waved her hand. "It's just a step on the gas."

Duan Yunzhou: "I live not far from here. Maybe I can walk home by taking a stroll to digest my food."

Hearing this, Jiang Yuan smiled and nodded: "A walk after dinner will help you live to ninety-nine. Dr. Duan, I'll be going now. Goodbye."
