Despite Luo Xiao’s furious shouting inside, the people outside couldn’t hear him.
On the way back, Xiao Rui felt conflicted.
“Boss, is this really okay?”
“He’s too noisy.”
“…”
That reason was too perfunctory.
With a few people having escaped, Li Yan asked Xiao Rui to report to the higher-ups while he headed toward the kitchen.
Over the next few days, Luo Xiao noticed that everyone’s meals were normal, except for his, which were either overly salty or tasteless.
After he spat out food a few times, the man opposite him showed concern.
“Do you want to eat mine?”
Luo Xiao weakly waved his hand. “No, you eat. Just seeing this stuff makes my scalp tingle. I feel like I’m going to faint.”
As he said, it wasn’t long before he really did faint.
When Luo Xiao opened his eyes again, he found himself in an unfamiliar place.
Propping himself up, he wondered, “Am I really going to starve to death?”
“Whoever starves, it won’t be you, don’t worry.”
The person who walked in was Xiao Rui, holding a bowl of porridge with some vegetables on top.
“Hurry up and eat. Finish quickly and leave.”
Xiao Rui was quite disdainful of this person. He almost died here. When he thought of how close the police station had to pay compensation, he disliked him even more.
Knowing that he could leave, Luo Xiao ate at lightning speed.
In no time, he finished the bowl of porridge and his eyes sparkled. “Can I really go now?”
“Yes.”
Before the words were fully out, he had already dashed to the door.
“I’m leaving, ha ha ha, goodbye!”
After a while, he came back with a smile on his face.
“No, let’s not meet again!”
This time, he didn’t come back.
Xiao Rui shrugged. This person was quite amusing but also a hassle.
Li Yan had been absent for a few days for some reason, but before leaving he had instructed Xiao Rui on a few things.
When he arrived at Fu Yuling’s house, it was He An who opened the door.
He poked his head out and asked in a soft voice, “Uncle, who are you looking for?”
“Is your mother home?”
Mentioning Fu Yuling made He An soften a bit.
“She’s not here.”
As soon as He An finished speaking, Fu Yuling’s voice could be heard from inside.
“He An, who is it?”
He An’s face flashed with embarrassment, his earlier lie exposed.
“Children can’t lie.”
Xiao Rui felt it was his duty as a police officer to teach the child.
“Uncle, I didn’t lie.”
He An appeared completely innocent, showing no signs of being exposed from moments ago. He spoke without blushing or getting nervous.
Xiao Rui immediately thought of Luo Xiao, who also had thick skin, but this child seemed even more impressive.
Thinking about why he had come over this time, he didn’t pursue it further.
Meanwhile, Fu Yuling saw He An lingering at the door and wondered what was going on and walked over.
Since returning from Father Fu and Mother Fu’s place, she hadn’t taken the children out.
“Xiao An, who is it?”
Fu Yuling fully opened the door. Upon seeing Xiao Rui, she teased, “It’s you?”
Every time Xiao Rui saw her, he recalled his embarrassing moments. He felt awkward but managed to hide it well.
“Well, the boss asked me to come and help.”
“Help?”
Fu Yuling was puzzled. What could he help her with?
“Come in first.”
It wasn’t good to keep someone standing outside.
As Xiao Rui walked in, he could see everything inside.
“This place is really nice.”
He muttered quietly, “If only the police station looked this good.”
