however, quan jing zhou did not dare to offend chi jiao at this critical moment. he could only look at huo chen expectantly, blinking his eyes and waiting for huo chen to agree.

huo chen had always been the most strict person in the world, so how could he agree to huo jinchen’s ridiculous request?

huo chen shook his head firmly and refused, ” “we don’t have a single room in our office. if you don’t want to stay in the guard room, i can put you in the detention room.”

after quan jing zhou heard these words, he was like a deflated ball of rubber. he did not have any temper at all.

it would be better to let him stay in the guardsman’s room than to let him go to the confinement unit!

“but, but if i’m innocent, i’m not guilty. i was lied to. you can’t be so unreasonable.” quan jing zhou did not give up and tried to resist.

“when we catch sheng qian and prove your innocence, you will be truly innocent. as for now, you’d better be honest and not play any tricks.” after huo chen finished speaking, he did not forget to step forward and put handcuffs on quan jing zhou. he then forcefully took him away.

without any outsiders, chi jiao and quan ye could finally start their discussion without worry.

“brother quan, when did sheng qian get involved with she qi? if sheng qian’s body really changed under she qi’s hands, the entire sheng family would be involved.” chi jiao said.

if sheng qian was really working for she qi, the sheng family would inevitably be implicated, and they would have to conduct a more detailed investigation.

“sheng qian is indeed a bit lecherous, but he’s also a little smart. however, with his courage, he shouldn’t dare to do such a terrifying thing.” quan ye said with a calm expression.

chi jiao’s heart skipped a beat when she heard this, and she directly asked quan ye,”brother quan mo, are you suspecting that the problem with sheng qian is more serious than we thought?”

no matter how much a person had changed, their nature would not change.

sheng qian was indeed overbearing, but he was only strong on the outside. once he encountered a big problem, he would definitely be the first one to admit defeat. he might not have the guts to harm so many people at once.

however, if the sheng qian now was no longer sheng qian, then it was possible.

quan ye nodded, his expression cold as he continued, ” “although these are just my guesses, there’s a voice in my heart that keeps telling me that i’m right. the connection between sheng qian and she qi may have already exceeded our imagination. jiaojiao, i’m going to find some flowers for you tomorrow. don’t forget to tell me the results when the DNA results are out.”

after mentioning this, chi jiao’s eyes were filled with even more worry.

she grabbed quan ye’s hand uneasily and said softly, ” “brother quan, you must remember that it doesn’t matter if you can’t find what i want. no matter what, the first thing i have to do is to ensure your safety. if anything happens to you, i’ll ignore you.”

chi jiao didn’t forget to let out a soft ” hmph ” at the end of her sentence. quan yang’s heart softened at the sight of chi jiao’s coquettish expression, and she agreed to her request without a second word.

that night, chi jiao and quan ye went home for dinner.

of course, quan yuan would not tell his family that he was going on an adventure in the ice and snow. he only said that he would be overseas for two days and would only be back in about a week.

lu xian was busy in the kitchen. when she heard his words, she immediately put down the spatula in her hand and turned around. she looked at her son with a complaining look,”why are you so busy every day? don’t you know how to stay at home and spend more time with jiaojiao? if jiaojiao doesn’t want you anymore, i’ll see what you can do.”
