Pure Darkness

Chapter 49

At night, Fang Qing drove a car at high speed towards the police station.24 hours had passed, so Ke Qian might have already been released. But that has no consequences. After everyone met and exchanged information, they would immediately devise and execute a plan to capture him.

He had just passed a corner when his phone rang urgently.

Fang Qing impatiently picked it up and glanced at it. Who was so careless and petty that it bothered him at such a crucial moment?

Aiyo, fuck!

That is gu nai nai*Fang Qing .

*T/N (gu nai nai) – literally, paternal grandmother (father's sister). However, it can be used sarcastically to indicate someone who is supposed to be respected, but not wanted (especially in terms of following that person's orders).

It only takes a few seconds for a moment's anxiety to give way to mindfulness. Fang Qing stepped on the brakes and made an emergency stop on the side of the road. As he lifted his phone, the corner of his mouth naturally lifted forming a smile. With a gentle tone that made her uncomfortable, she said, “Halo? Jin Xiaozhe?”

On the other end of the phone, Jin Xiaozhe's voice was also very slow. “Fang Qing.”

Both were silent for a moment.

“Is something wrong?” he asked, putting on a cold attitude.

“Note you left me last time; you mean?” she asked.

Fang Qing held back his smile and raised his head to look at the long road outside the window. The streets were bathed in the light of the setting sun, and pedestrians rushed to and fro.

“Yes, I mean it,” he said slowly.

Memories of his visit to the set and his actions came to his mind.

In a hurry to leave flowers for her, she picked up a notebook and tore one of its pages apart. He had taken a pen, but did not know what to write.

In the end, this old man hid in a corner behind the fan and chewed on the tip of the pen for a long time before writing two lines: the:

I'm in Beijing.

Before, you were waiting for me too often. In the future, I will wait for you every day.

“SAYA . . ” said, “I have been filming the last few days, and I stayed at the Hilton Hotel, not far from the police station. We'll leave tomorrow night.”

He immediately said, “Today, I will . . ah, no, today I have to catch someone, tomorrow, tomorrow morning, I will definitely come. We . . .we'll talk, we'll sit down and talk properly, okay, Xiaozhe?”

There was silence at the end there for a few seconds.

After a while, his Xiaozhe said softly, “Alright, I will wait for you.”

The star that was famous all over the country, the cold and arrogant woman, her Xiaozhe, softly said, she will be waiting for him.

When he hung up the phone, Fang Qing felt a little dizzy. He raised his head to look at the endless streams of traffic passing through him and covered his mouth with a hand to hold his laughter.

In that split second, he suddenly, surprisingly, had the urge to cry.

He was very clear what he was at the peak of his achievements. He knew clearly that they were destined to reunite in this world; even though they had separated, they would definitely reunite.

Didn't he accumulate enough virtues by catching criminals for half his life? In the end, heaven also couldn't bear to treat him badly, did it?

With the same state of mind in chaos and clarity, he felt as if he was once again replenished. He drove the car to the central bureau quickly, then up the stairs.

“Ke Qian was released an hour ago, but our people lost her on the road,” An Yan said as a greeting. “The central bureau has sent people to Qingdu University, but they have not found it yet. There is no car either. He flew the cage. We've been doing the hunting all over the city.”

“Good!” Fang Qing replied. “What about Jinyan and Jian Yao?”

“They will be here soon.”

Fang Qing was full of fighting spirit. “I can't believe this bastard can even escape to heaven.” When he finished speaking, he patted An Yan on the shoulder. “After we catch him, I'll treat you all to a drink tonight!”

An Yan did not know why, but he also felt very excited, so he nodded excitedly and said, “Alright, thank you, lao Fang.”

——

The black Cherokee was on his way back to the police station. The news of Ke Qian's escape also reached their ears.

Bo Jinyan was not the least bit worried as they were monitoring ‘small prince’. If An Yan could find a flower cannibal, then finding a trivial high IQ novice villain would only be a matter of a few minutes.

He even hummed a song as he drove, and asked Jian Yao, “What are you going to eat tonight? How about we eat fish?”

“Of course,” replied Bo Jinyan. “The evidence is convincing, and catching the man is not something I need to worry about. We have Fang Qing and An Yan, so where is the cause of the anxiety that we won't catch him?

Jian Yao felt the same way, so she thought for a moment before saying, “OK, then, let's eat fish. Last time, fish with pickled vegetables was not bad. The restaurant has other dishes that are quite delicious as well. ”

“Uh huh.”

As they approached the entrance of the police station, Bo Jinyan looked at the express delivery shop from the corner of her eye and thought of a phone call. He stopped a car nearby and said, “I'll take express delivery.”

“Good.” Jian Yao stared at his back as he rushed off. He thought, what express delivery could cause the great Professor Bo to become so agitated? He should check it out later.

When Bo Jinyan returned to the car, she threw a small square box into the back seat.

Jian Yao asked, “What is it?”

Bo Jinyan downplayed the importance and said, “Slightly something I bought online.”

“Oh.”

They arrived at the police station very quickly afterwards. While they were still downstairs, Bo Jinyan's phone rang with a text message sign. It had been sent by Fu Ziyu:

Jinyan, please come to my place at 8 o’clock tonight.

Bo Jinyan was starting.

This person, Fu Ziyu, was usually so even-tempered that it was almost abnormal. However, in truth, he could also be a little difficult. Take for example the situation with Han Yumeng. Apart from Bo Jinyan, he had never mentioned her to anyone, and was even relevant to talk about her to Jian Yao. Jian Yao had only known of Han Yumeng’s existence from Bo Jinyan.

Bo Jinyan Told Jian Yao, “Wait for me for a bit.” Then, he opened the car door, got out and called Fu Ziyu’s cellphone.

Du . . . du . . du . . . . the phone rang for quite some time, but no one picked up.

He then called Fu Ziyu’s home number, but no one picked up the phone. He called the office, but no one answered there, either.

Inside the car, Jian Yao grabbed onto the back to pick up the express delivery item. As soon as he saw that it was shipped from overseas, he picked up a pocket knife from the glove compartment and nimbly opened the package.

Bo Jinyan always gave him the delivery items that were sent to their house to open. If they were to bring home this express delivery item, he would probably give it to her.

He opened the box and looked at the packaging layer. After taking it all out, all that was left were two beautiful black velvet boxes.

Jian Yao was stunned.

Bo Jinyan got to the car and found his wife staring confusedly into the two rings.

He can't speak.

Jian Yao said, “This. .”

Bo Jinyan said weakly, “That's good, there's a surprise.”

Jian Yao giggled and carefully observed the two boxes in her hands. “You already gave me the ring when you asked me to marry you, so why did you buy this ring?”

“It was an engagement ring,” replied Bo Jinyan. “I believe wedding rings should pair. Especially if it is meant to be worn for a lifetime, then it should have a more meaningful and touching meaning.”

Jian Yao's heart warmed to hear his words.

Is there any need to guess? This bastard already had a customized ring. Needless to say, what he had been keeping secret must have been. . .

Their marriage.

Once in a lifetime event.

However, Jian Yao pretended not to think too much about it, and took the ring indifferently. In one ring, a small bird had embedded itself, spreading its wings and soaring high, very smooth and like the original. A circle of fine diamonds had been installed on the body of the bird, and they glittered brilliantly in the sunlight.

The second ring is a vine branch. The workmanship is also very smooth, and the diamond inset glitters gently.

Jian Yao pondered for a moment, then took out a vines ring and said, “Do you think this is mine?”

Didn't he say that there was a more meaningful and touching meaning?

He was a bird with outstretched wings, soaring high in the boundless sky. And he was a branch, the one who tethered him, gave him a peaceful place to rest. Isn't that what this means?

Bo Jinyan smiled but did not speak.
