Detective: I, Cao Jianjun, started by arresting my brother-in-law.

She got up from Cao Jianjun's arms, looked at her husband with teary eyes, and her gaze was somewhat complicated.

"and then?"

"And that's how it is."

Cao Jianjun chuckled self-deprecatingly.

"When I was in Dong Son, South Vietnam, I received a call from the director. He told me that I had given birth..."

As he spoke, Cao Jianjun took out his phone, retrieved the last text message Huang Xi had sent him a few months ago, and then showed it to Zhou Hui.

The words conveyed an attitude of never contacting each other again, and also offered blessings to Cao Jianjun and his wife.

Zhou Hui was engrossed in her phone.

"At the time, I also thought, - this is just a farce."

"Think about it in Tazhai, think about being an undercover agent. I took drugs, killed people, and I might even be killed myself..."

"In that environment, everything that happened between me and Huang Xi was forced upon us."

"Once the case is over, we should all return to our normal lives. That would be fine."

"She deleted me on WeChat, blocked my number, and even changed her phone number."

“I think it’s really good. This girl is very sensible and knows what she should do.”

"but……"

As he spoke, Cao Jianjun hugged Zhou Hui's upper body tightly and looked down at her.

"Right after the provincial department's special task force concluded its operation, He Yong suddenly told me..."

"She is pregnant."

"Based on the dates, He Yong suspected me, so... he had a good talk with me."

"If you don't believe me, you can call He Yong and ask him. You can trust his character, right?"

The fact that He Yong was holding a photo of his deceased wife at the commendation ceremony established his image in Zhou Hui's mind.

During her narration, which lasted for more than ten minutes, Zhou Hui's mood was noticeably less pessimistic than before.

However, it's hard to accept for a while.

She moved her little feet off Cao Jianjun and sat down beside him, gradually calming down.

"Then... knowing that this child's existence was absurd, why didn't she abort it?"

"Just like you."

Cao Jianjun chimed in, "Twins."

"pair……"

Zhou Hui opened her mouth, then fell silent.

She is a woman and a mother, and she knows all too well what twins mean to a woman who wants children.

Blinking and pursing her lips, she still couldn't quite understand.

"Even if they are octuplets, it's still wrong if the children are born without a father, isn't it?"

Cao Jianjun nodded in agreement, saying, "That's why she didn't contact me."

"So what does she want to do?"

Zhou Hui asked in astonishment, "She wants to give birth to the child alone and never get married? Do her parents agree to that?"

"She is an orphan."

Cao Jianjun smiled helplessly and said, "She's in Beijiang, renting an old house that's been there for thirty or forty years. It's going to be demolished soon."

"A person can use their savings to raise their child until they can go to school, and then go back to work."

"Sometimes, I can't quite understand what you women are thinking."

"But, this is the fact."

“Wife, this is the whole story. I haven’t lied to you at all.”

After Cao Jianjun finished speaking, he let out a long sigh.

"Even if you hadn't noticed, I wanted to find an opportunity to tell you, because carrying all this on my shoulders is really exhausting."

Zhou Hui's emotions had mostly dissipated.

She certainly didn't want to accept all of this, but it was clear that none of it was Cao Jianjun's own subjective will.

By a twist of fate, he encountered a woman during a mission, and then, by yet another twist of fate, became pregnant with twins.

"How old is she?"

"Twenty-eight."

"So young."

As Zhou Hui spoke, she rolled her eyes at Cao Jianjun: "Feeling good, huh? Finding such a young girl."

"..."

Cao Jianjun didn't think this was a joke.

At this point, any stimulus could cause Zhou Hui to completely explode.

So he pretended not to hear it.

“If Huang Xi still had parents or relatives alive, I wouldn’t care about her.”

Cao Jianjun sighed helplessly, "But He Yong told me that she only has one relative, He Yun, the deputy director of the Lvteng City Bureau, who was arrested and just sentenced to life imprisonment."

"Now that I'm alone in such a big city as Beijiang, it doesn't matter if I don't know about it."

"But I found out, and I also found out she was pregnant with my child, so I had to go there."

Zhou Hui leaned back on the sofa, tilted her head back, and closed her eyes.

Tears still streamed down her face.

No matter what, that woman had taken her man, and she still felt uncomfortable about it.

But she didn't know what to do.

"Build an army!"

"Ok?"

"How about we take a break for a while?"

"..."

Cao Jianjun was somewhat apprehensive.

"Don't overthink it, I just need to calm down."

Zhou Hui still looked up at the ceiling: "I believe you, what you said is true."

"But I need time and space. Can you let me think about it?"

Cao Jianjun was actually worried, but it seemed like there was nothing he could do.

"Wife, our two daughters are still young..."

"Don't worry, I'm not stupid enough to do something stupid!"

Before Cao Jianjun could finish speaking, Zhou Hui glared at him and said, "I still have to wait for my daughter to grow up so I can take care of their children in the future."

Cao Jianjun smiled and nodded upon hearing this.

"Give me her phone number."

Zhou Hui suddenly stretched out her hand: "And the address."

"..."

Cao Jianjun's heart, which had just settled down, jumped again.

0 ····Requesting flowers····· ··

"Don't overthink it, I just want to talk to her."

Zhou Hui's expression was calm, as if she were a different person: "Whether we get divorced or stay together, I'm still the original wife, right?"

"daughter in law……"

Cao Jianjun couldn't help but worry.

"Cao Jianjun".

Zhou Hui said with a serious expression, "You are not in a position to negotiate with me now. From now on, I will handle this matter myself."
