Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1321: 1320 Let’s date

“You can take it off now.”

Wen Jin sent out the email, shut down his computer, and walked out from behind his office desk.

Upon hearing his command, Jing Xiaocha immediately removed the ice pack from her face and stood up to ask, “President Wen, can we go to the police station now?”

Wen Jin’s gaze paused for a half-second on her left cheek, and he nodded.

When Gu Kai received a call from Lu Zhiyan, he had just finished eating and put down his spoon.

Since his right hand was injured, Gu Kai, who could operate with his left hand, was unable to use chopsticks and had to eat with a spoon instead.

“Hello!”

“Didn’t you ask me to investigate the gangster who threatened Fang Zhiwei last night?”

Upon hearing this, Gu Kai looked towards Bai Yiyi sitting opposite him, stood up, and walked out of the dining room, “That was quick. Do you already have results?”

“Yeah, it’s also a coincidence. Speaking of which, I should thank Ah Jin. Not only did we find out who specifically threatened Fang Zhiwei that night, but we also know who tampered with the medication.”

One could hear the good mood in Lu Zhiyan’s voice.

Surprise appeared on Gu Kai’s face: “So, can we solve the case now? That’s really great.”

“Ah Jin is bringing someone here, I’ll tell you more about Fang Zhiwei later.”

In the dining room, Bai Yiyi overheard what Gu Kai said in the living room and she turned her head towards the living room direction.

Gu Kai, holding his phone and in a pleasant mood, came back in, “Bai Yiyi, I have good news for you. Someone has provided a clue, and soon the innocence of your pharmaceutical factory will be restored.”

“President Wen said at noon he wanted to meet the person who provided the clue, I didn’t expect it to be true. It’s all your fault; if it wasn’t for your call asking me to come back, I could have met the person who provided the clue.”

“What’s there to meet? Just a small punk, one of those who previously threatened Fang Zhiwei.” Gu Kai heard Bai Yiyi’s complaint and his smile instantly faded.

He returned to sit down at the dining table, saw Fang Zhiwei frowning and looking at him surprisingly, Gu Kai’s eyes flickered, he pulled out a tissue and handed it to Tongtong, inexplicably asking, “Last night, you were pretending to be asleep, weren’t you?”

“Neurotic.”

Bai Yiyi was first stunned, then glared at him coldly, lowered her head, and continued to eat.

Gu Kai scoffed with a lazy lean into his chair, “Who sleeps without turning off the lights? I guess, you wanted to turn off the light but were afraid it would reveal that you were pretending, so you simply didn’t turn it off.”

Bai Yiyi pretended not to hear.

“Bai Yiyi, do you really hope this case is solved soon, aren’t you afraid that when the truth comes out, it will be the end for Li En?”

Bai Yiyi, unable to bear it any longer, put down her chopsticks and looked coldly at Gu Kai’s eyes, which held a mix of inquiry, ridicule, and an unclear emotion, “Gu Kai, just speak directly what you want to say, don’t beat around the bush and mock.”

“Heh, angered again.”

Gu Kai laughed instead of getting angry.

“Yes, I’m angered. For you all, Li En is an utterly wicked villain. For me, he was once a friend. I don’t hate him the way you do, so now you see me as an enemy?”

“You’re the neurotic one, have I ever treated you like an enemy?” Gu Kai’s face grew stern, just as he was about to mock Bai Yiyi a few words, he saw Tongtong put down her spoon, lift her small face, and look at them puzzledly, he held back.

“Daddy, Mommy, no fighting.”

Tongtong stretched out both hands, attempting to grasp each of them, her clear, large eyes blinkingly pitifully endearing.

Gu Kai chuckled and reached out his hand to lovingly stroke Tongtong’s head, “Tongtong, daddy is not quarreling with mommy, I was just teasing her.”

His words were met with a cold look from Bai Yiyi.

Gu Kai ignored the dagger-like glare from Bai Yiyi. The smile on his lips deepened under Tongtong’s gaze, as he leaned slightly forward to wipe the corner of Tongtong’s mouth, “Tongtong, finish the rice in the bowl, don’t waste it.”

“Okay.”

Seeing that they were no longer arguing, Tongtong immediately grinned happily.

Gu Kai’s smile was tender as he watched Tongtong until she finished the last grain of rice in her bowl, and he praised her, “Tongtong is really good.”

“Tongtong has finished, no waste.” Tongtong, holding her small bowl, showed it to Gu Kai and then to Bai Yiyi.

Bai Yiyi also praised her a few times, making Tongtong smile even more happily. She then turned around, slid off the chair with both hands, and ran out of the dining room to play in the living room.

“Last night, did you not answer my calls because I went to see Fang Zhiwei?”

Seeing that Tongtong had left, Gu Kai circled back to the earlier topic. Bai Yiyi was drinking soup and almost choked when she heard his words, she lifted her head and looked at him as if he were a monster: “What does you seeing Fang Zhiwei have to do with me?”

She wouldn’t give him another chance to feel self-important.

“Of course, it concerns you.” Gu Kai raised his eyebrows, leaned forward, and locked eyes with Bai Yiyi intensely, “Fang Zhiwei called me because she received a courier letter telling her that the incident last time was orchestrated by you.”

“What?”

Bai Yiyi widened her eyes in shock, it must have been the despicable Qian Songnan.

Gu Kai was quite satisfied with her surprise, he then slowly leaned back in his chair, casually speaking, “I didn’t want her to misunderstand and hence resent you, that’s why I went to her house.”

“Does she believe you?”

Bai Yiyi lowered her gaze slightly and looked at Gu Kai again, her voice softening.

“Not quite.” Gu Kai quirked an eyebrow and sighed lightly, “Fang Zhiwei is no fool, she won’t fully believe what I say, nor will she completely doubt it. She might seek Lu Zhiyan to verify if what I said was true.”

“What did you say?”

Bai Yiyi blinked in confusion.

Gu Kai’s lips curved up slightly, “I said, I had already investigated a few days ago, but it was delayed by a medical accident and I didn’t get a chance to tell her in time. Also, I told her that the real person who instructed someone to warn her was Qian Songnan.”

“Oh.”

Bai Yiyi tightened her grip on the spoon in her hand, lowered her eyelids, and stared at the soup in her bowl.

“I didn’t tell you last night because I didn’t want you to worry. I didn’t expect that you would not answer my calls because I went to see Fang Zhiwei. You even refused to come back for lunch today, such a petty woman.”

As Gu Kai spoke, he smirked.

Upon hearing Gu Kai’s words, Bai Yiyi, who had been looking down, immediately looked up to retort: “Don’t be so self-righteous, I’m not mad because you went to see Fang Zhiwei at all.”

“Then what is it, because I kissed you?”

Gu Kai’s eyes swiftly narrowed, his gaze sweeping over her rosy lips and locking onto her eyes.

Bai Yiyi’s face heated up, she glared at him resentfully: “You really have no shame.”

Gu Kai turned his head to look towards the living room, where Tongtong was lying on the couch, playing with her puzzle. He pressed his lips together, retracted his gaze, and looked at Bai Yiyi whose cheeks were slightly flushed. It felt as if a string in his heart had been gently plucked.

The voice that escaped his thin lips was slightly airy: “Bai Yiyi, let’s date!”
