My girlfriend isn't as cute as me.

Over the past year, Lin Jiu has become her bedtime snack countless times.

Although it was just something I thought about in my dreams, this desire had accumulated to the point that I was already feeling incredibly guilty.

Where is the office?

Lin Jiu took the initiative to ask.

Manager Tan replied, "This way, I'll lead the way."

"Thank you for your trouble."

Lin Jiu silently took Wang Yuting's hand, gave her a peaceful smile, and whispered to comfort her, "It's okay, I'm here."

Previously, Wang Yuting had always expressed her love to him without fear of others' gaze, so now it's his turn to shoulder the responsibility of being the head of the family.

Lin's memorization of the criminal law knowledge stored on the bookshelf is no joke!

"Then, please use it."

"Thank you."

Lin Jiu sat in the reception chair in the office and accepted the teacup handed to him by Manager Tan.

Why are there tea sets in the office? Is this really an office? Did I come to the wrong place? The office uses heavy wooden doors, polished unnaturally, exuding a high-end feel that has nothing to do with a shopping mall. Lin Jiu had doubts in his mind, but when he turned to look at Wang Yuting, he found that she accepted it quite calmly.

"These were all prepared by the merchants," Wang Yuting said quietly.

"That's all."

Lin Jiu immediately felt relieved.

"Hey, are you trying to sabotage me? We're colleagues, don't be so harsh on us."

Supervisor Tan glanced at Wang Yuting, then looked at Lin Jiu with suspicion in his eyes, and asked, "Are you really a boy?"

"This is my identification."

Lin Jiu had anticipated this situation when he went out with Wang Yuting, so he cleverly prepared his ID card.

Supervisor Tan took the ID card and saw the name, age, and date of birth. She then compared the ID card with Lin Jiu's.

"Is this your ID card?"

"it's me."

"is it?"

"Yes."

Lin Jiu glanced at the ID card, understood what the other person meant, and added, "I was very thin back then."

After saying that, Lin Jiu realized he had made a mistake and repeated himself, "No, I wasn't wearing makeup at that time."

Manager Tan raised an eyebrow slightly. She returned the ID card to Lin Jiu, still somewhat unable to accept it.

This is a boy.

This is an adult boy.

This child is older than my son.

My son is thirteen years old this year and is almost 1.7 meters tall!

How come this kid is eighteen years old but still acts like a little child!

Supervisor Tan stared in disbelief, struggling to find the words, but no matter how she looked at the child, she couldn't help but think how exceptionally beautiful he was. His eyes were gentle and warm, his eyelashes were long and curled, his face was perfectly shaped, and his features were so delicate that he seemed like a living doll, inspiring genuine affection.

Where did you buy your cosmetics?

"This question has stumped me."

Lin Jiu turned to look at Wang Yuting, seeking help from the sidelines.

"Those samples that the manager on the first floor gave us, everyone got them."

"Are those cosmetics really that effective? I haven't even opened mine yet."

"No, it's all about looks. Lin Jiu has good natural features."

Wang Yuting sincerely reminded Manager Tan that she didn't want her to be so overwhelmed by the sudden impact that she foolishly bought cosmetics. Although Manager Tan was also quite good-looking and took excellent care of herself, she was ultimately not as good as my Lin Jiu.

"Thank you so much!"

Manager Tan understood her implied meaning, and his tone immediately turned sour.

You're welcome. I'm glad you're listening.

Wang Yuting breathed a sigh of relief, completely failing to understand what the other person meant.

Manager Tan raised her eyebrows high, maintaining a smile on her face, but her hand holding the teacup trembled slightly.

Seeing that the atmosphere was getting tense, Lin Jiu quickly intervened, asking, "Excuse me, is there something you need from us?"

Manager Tan glanced at him before taking a sip of tea to calm himself down, after all, he was indeed getting on in years.

"It's nothing, just a misunderstanding. I was just curious... why there are students here." Manager Tan thought for a moment but decided against directly stating the original reason. He couldn't very well say, "I thought you were a minor," could he? That would be a huge blow to the child. Besides, if a manager brought a minor to the sixth-floor arcade, the impact might lead to his dismissal.

"I've taken leave."

Lin Jiu answered, then her expression changed.

That's not right. He asked the homeroom teacher for leave, and she betrayed him yesterday. It's highly likely the homeroom teacher provided Lin Jiu and Ning Yueyao's addresses, so... why would she register Lin Jiu for leave? Couldn't she just record it as an absence?

I was careless and didn't flash.

Lin Jiu silently took a sip of tea.

Since things have come to this, we should just accept it as they are.

Lin Jiu's past life experiences enabled him to calm down in times of crisis and look at problems from multiple perspectives.

If I can study at home like this, it doesn't seem so bad, and I can still do my housework every day.

It's not good for my health; I feel like I won't be able to handle it, so I need to take some supplements.

However, if we consider the time frame, it should be about right, right?

Lin Jiu took out her phone and squinted slightly.

coming.

Chapter 82 didn't work, bro (4K)

"Officer Li."

After receiving permission from Supervisor Tan, Lin Jiu answered the phone in a corner of the office.

Although Manager Tan was curious, as a member of society, it was very impolite to eavesdrop on other people's phone calls. Her rich experience and mature mindset allowed her to control her curiosity—that's the composure of an adult.

Well, in comparison, Wang Yuting's behavior was quite childish.

Supervisor Tan didn't know how Wang Yuting did it, but she found one of the few blind spots in the office, hid behind cover, and quite naturally eavesdropped on Lin Jiu's conversation. Her actions were as if she had practiced hundreds or thousands of times; as an observer, Supervisor Tan couldn't find any fault with her.

No, this is a huge problem!

What exactly is going on?

No, bro.

Manager Tan had to admit something.

She's out of touch with the ideas of young people now; please upgrade to the latest version.

"Xiao Lin, I need to thank you." Officer Li's voice came from the other end of the phone. "The suggestions you provided yesterday were extremely helpful to our case. You were a great help."

"It's so great to be able to help."

Lin Jiu answered sincerely, and even his shoulders relaxed a little.

After all, this matter concerns the safety of Lin Jiu and Wang Yuting. They can't live in constant fear, can they? If it were just Lin Jiu alone who had a problem, he would handle it in his own way. But not now. Lin Jiu has Wang Yuting by his side. He is no longer the penniless boy who would do anything without considering the consequences.

"You are a party involved in this case, and I hope that what you are about to hear will be kept confidential."

"No problem, do I need to sign a guarantee?"

"No need for that, I trust your character."

This may be somewhat subjective, but Officer Li genuinely admires Lin Jiu's character.

Officer Li hasn't given up on training Lin Jiu to become a police officer, but Lin Jiu is unaware of this. If he knew, he would be deeply moved and then decisively refuse. After all, Lin Jiu has a job worth dedicating his life to, and just imagining Wang Yuting's life without him sends a sharp pain through his heart.

What kind of things must a house go through to smell like a garbage dump?

Why can cooking turn your kitchen into a hellish scene?

Did she ever eat properly before she met me?

“We arrested a total of five people, four of whom were men who violated Article 42 of the Public Security Administration Punishment Law by threatening and retaliating against witnesses and their close relatives; Article 23 of the Criminal Law for attempted intentional injury; and Article 275 of the Criminal Law for intentional damage to public or private property with a value exceeding 5,000 yuan, meeting the criteria for filing a case.”

Officer Li spoke calmly and collectedly, while Lin Jiu silently calculated how many years he could sentence these people to prison.

Lin Jiu is a kind-hearted person who can't bear to see others suffer.

If given the opportunity, we should naturally strive to ensure these people serve their full sentences.

You know what, going to jail these days is a completely different experience from other jail experiences; the treatment has improved dramatically. Of course, I'm not referring to changes in prison food and accommodations, but rather that once the entertainment industry is reformed, the prison's New Year's Eve party might be even more spectacular than the New Year's Eve gala. Look, isn't that so-and-so? The actor! How did he get in here? Oh my, isn't this Teacher Zhao? Haven't seen him in days, he's got diarrhea! And who's that kid from someone else's family, come and put on a show for everyone! What? Someone's talking nonsense? Get him out of here, we won't even sell him anal sex.

When Lin Jiu thought about how those five criminal suspects would spend at least three years and at most seven years in prison, he felt that he had done a good deed. Maybe those people would even be able to meet their idols in prison.

Thinking of this, Lin Jiu asked, "Who is the other one?"

Officer Li continued, "She is a teacher at your school."

"Huangmei?"

Lin Jiu sighed.

Although he had prepared himself mentally, hearing this fact was still disappointing.

Regardless of the circumstances, he was Lin Jiu's homeroom teacher.

"No, she is a history teacher."

"Eh?"

Lin Jiu was stunned.
