"I do too…" Yang said slowly as he wiped the tears off his face .
"If you trust me, then don't think too much . Qin Chu will be fine, he'll be back . "
"Mhm, we know President Qin didn't commit the murder," Bella nodded optimistically, and Huo Mian smiled . "Then hurry up and go to lunch . "
"What about you, Young Madam . "
"I'm not hungry…"
After Bella and Yang left, Huo Mian went back to work for a while . Then, she leaned back in her chair and rested her eyes; she had been so sleepy recently, was it because it was almost spring?
Soon, she fell asleep…
- The Su Family Mansion -
"Yu, you lost again…" Grandpa Su put down the chess piece in his hand and looked at his grandson, who was sitting across from him .
"Stop with the bullshit, something's on your mind, isn't it? How can you beat me half-heartedly?"
"Haha… you saw right through me . " Embarrassed, Su Yu scratched his head; he really couldn't hide anything from his grandpa…
"Tell me what's on your mind, can I help?"
"Yes, you definitely can," Su Yu immediately answered .
"Tell me about it . "
"Can you promise me you'll help me first?"
"I never act without advisement, tell me about it first and I'll make a decision . " Grandpa Su rolled up his sleeves and sipped on his cup of tea .
"Grandpa… have you heard about Major Homicide 327?"
"The case about Mayor Song's daughter?" Grandpa Song asked nonchalantly, and Su Yu nodded nonstop . "Yeah, that case . "
Then, he moved up to his grandpa, who took another sip of tea . "Continue…"
"My friend's husband is the suspect of that case, so I was wondering if you can help get my friend an opportunity to see him . "
"No," Grandpa Su immediately refused .
"Why not?" Su Yu asked, unwilling to give up .
"Because I said so… Yu, no matter who this friend of yours is, you can't interfere… Mayor Song's daughter died a brutal death, and the provincial government is paying close attention to this incident… Don't look for trouble during a sensitive time like this . "
"Grandpa…"
"That's enough . " Grandpa Su placed his teacup down and left the room, leaving Su Yu alone and filled with disappointment .
Last night when he was drinking with Huo Mian, he felt how much she loved Qin Chu and how much she missed him .
Qin Chu was in custody right now, and even someone with Su Yu's connections couldn't see him . In the end, he asked his grandpa to help Huo Mian see Qin Chu but to his utter surprise, his grandpa refused so quickly .
Grandpa Su had a point though; this wasn't just a normal case, the victim was Mayor Song's daughter; therefore, as a military commander, Su Yu's grandfather would never get himself involved in this mess .
Su Yu sighed… he felt bad that he couldn't help Huo Mian .
- At the same time, at the Huo Corporation -
Huo Siqian's female assistant carefully knocked on his office door . "President Huo… someone's here to see you, she said she's your girlfriend . "
"My… girlfriend?" Huo Siqian froze for a second; it couldn't be Mo Xue'er, since she came and left as she wished and never told his assistant that she was his girlfriend .
"Tell her to come in . "
Wang Shasha came in wearing a floor-length dress and delicate makeup . She said in an almost whining tone, "Siqian…"
"Why are you here?" Huo Siqian icily scanned her face; he seemed displeased to see her .
