Chapter 43: Suitable? Not Suitable?

Since Shao Yi came over from C City, he began to be in frequent contact with Wei Han. Whether there was some matter or not, he’d still take the opportunity to strike up a conversation with Wei Han. But Wei Han always wryly smiled and deliberately avoided him.

In the eyes of outsiders who were not clear on the situation, it may only seem like Shao Yi wanted to make better friends with Wei Han and was hoping to change their coworker relationship to get along more harmoniously.

But Jiang Chengrui saw this and just immediately shook his head, knowing that this was definitely hopeless.

Regarding the real relationship between Wei Han and Qi Zhifan, he’d been confused before. However, since he’d accidentally bumped into a scene of their intimacy, plus Pei Yuyang had also explained it to him clearly, he’d also understood everything. It’s no wonder that Wei Han always made silly mistakes in front of Qi Zhifan.

“Shao Yi, don’t do these things anymore. It’s useless. I already have a person that I like.”

“Before, didn’t you also say that you had someone that you liked? Weren’t you always unable to get them all along?”

Before? Wei Han thought a moment and was somewhat speechless. That was a matter from how long ago. At that time, he hadn’t figured out his real intentions yet and had always thought that the person he’d liked was Little Yao.

“This is different from the past. We’re together now.”

“What?!” Shao Yi said unexpectedly. He looked at Wei Han and shook his head. “I don’t believe it.”

Wei Han stuck his tongue out. “Believe it or not as you want.”

“Then who are you with? Call him over someday and let me see.”

Shao Yi raised his eyebrows. To tell the truth, Wei Han actually wasn’t the type that he liked. He thought that his brain was broken, so he was interested in Wei Han. So in this world, how could there be a second man who’d like this kind of blockhead?

“……” Wei Han was suddenly a little at a loss for words. Qi Zhifan and his relationship was somewhat complicated and special. Apart from Pei Yuyang and Jiang Chengrui who were very good to them, other people saw Qi Zhifan and his relationship as brothers.

“Scared? It isn’t good to lie.” Shao Yi smiled.

Wei Han glared at him, turned and walked away.

This day, when Wei Han looked at his wallet, his eyes accidentally glimpsed something. Ahh?

Wei Han was a little surprised. He suddenly realized that the photo inside had been switched. The original photo was his and his mother, and Qi Zhifan and Uncle Qi, a family of four people. Only, it was changed into a personal photo of Qi Zhifan alone, this…

It seemed like it should be when he was away, Qi Zhifan had secretly tucked his narcissistic picture inside.

Recalling last night, Wei Han remembered that Qi Zhifan had also asked him for his photo. Wei Han rarely took pictures, and also thought Qi Zhifan had some proper business, so he’d thrown his own inch-sized photo to him.

If Qi Zhifan also put it into his wallet…dang, this beautiful and ugly contrast, Wei Han couldn’t help but be a little intoxicated.

Wei Han’s finger poked at Qi Zhifan’s face in the photo, his expression gradually changing. From the beginning’s small surprise and helplessness, it became infatuated, the corners of his mouth also unwittingly turning up into a smile: tsk tsk tsk, their family’s Trouble looked really good. Indeed, the more he looked, the better-looking he was, and no matter how much he looked, he wouldn’t tire of it.

“Hey, quickly wipe your drool.” At this moment, a voice unexpectedly emerged and Wei Han was suddenly startled.

Taking advantage of this momentary daze, Shao Yi immediately grabbed the wallet from Wei Han’s hand. “Wei Han, you’re not earnestly working, what are you looking at! What’s so good to look at?”

Wei Han anxiously said, “Shao Yi, quickly give it back to me.”

Seeing Wei Han’s pitiful appearance because of his teasing, Shao Yi inexplicably thought it was cute and jokingly said, “Don’t worry, I’ll give it back to you. But before that, I have to see what you were looking at…”

“This…this is Qi Zhifan?” Shao Yi’s face suddenly changed.

Wei Han didn’t answer, only taking the wallet back in his hand and hurriedly putting it inside his clothes.

“Wei Han, it turns out that you like your brother.” Shao Yi’s look became more and more complex. “Could it be that the person you said you were already together with two days ago was him?”

“……” Wei Han didn’t speak, tacitly agreeing.

“Heh, this is really…” Shao Yi couldn’t help but laugh. For a moment, he didn’t know what to say, and just waved his hand and left. But it was inevitable that there would be a thread of disappointment in his heart.

When he finished work in the evening, Jiang Chengrui quickly called out a farewell to Wei Han and left first because there were some matters in the Jiang family. Wei Han had a lot of information to sort out today. He stayed in the office for a while longer, and when he was finally done, almost everyone was gone.
Just a few steps out from the police station, his wrist was suddenly held back. Wei Han looked up and saw that unexpectedly, Shao Yi hadn’t left yet.

“Shao…Shao Yi? Is there still something?”

During the day, Shao Yi knew that he liked Qi Zhifan because of his wallet photo, and he hadn’t talked to him anymore. When he was eating lunch, he also hadn’t thick-skinned insisted on sitting together with him. Wei Han thought that Shao Yi had already been deterred, but in fact, it didn’t seem to be the case.

“Wei Han, I want to say a few words to you.” Shao Yi’s face was very serious and he pulled Wei Han to his side.

“Mm, then say it.” Wei Han nodded and quietly pulled back his hand.

“I thought about your relationship with Qi Zhifan, and it should be difficult for your parents and elders. I’ve also checked the status of the Qi family in S City: it’s not small. I think that since Qi Zhifan eats both men and women, he should marry a woman to give a good account to the family.

“And as I can see before, Qi Zhifan seems to hate the police. Maybe he still can’t understand our line of work. What if you had to make some sacrifice later? Are you sure he will support it?”

“……” Wei Han was silent, somewhat unable to refute. He had to admit, these things that Shao Yi said were very reasonable.

After choosing to be together with Qi Zhifan, he’d gradually become concerned about various problems in the future. If they really wanted to keep going, then they had to face a lot. Only, sometimes he didn’t dare thing about it, and was also unwilling to think about it more, preferring to be immersed in happiness.

“So, Wei Han, you and him are simply not suitable. I still have a chance.”

“We’re very suitable in bed.”

There was a sudden and familiar voice in his ears. The distressed Wei Han didn’t have time to look back when he was suddenly embraced by Qi Zhifan from behind.

In front of Shao Yi’s face, Qi Zhifan tightly held Wei Han and raised his chin high. “Apologies, I will never give you any chance.”

“……” Shao Yi immediately wrinkled his brows.

On the way home afterwards, Qi Zhifan firmly gripped Wei Han’s hand, not saying a word with a grave expression.

Wei Han sensed that something was wrong with him. He tentatively asked in a low voice, “Odd Trouble?”

“Wei Han, no matter what that guy said, don’t listen to a word of it.”

Looking at Qi Zhifan’s rather dark eyes, Wei Han gently “oh” a sound.

“Tch, Shao Yi, that guy…” Qi Zhifan hatefully scolded under his breath.

A year ago, after he and Wei Han had returned from the C City’s training base, he’d vowed to never let Wei Han step in there and have the opportunity to meet Shao Yi. He hadn’t expected that now, Shao Yi himself would run over to S City.

Hmph! Sure enough, he’d already had bad intentions since then. Maybe he should find a way to make Shao Yi roll back to C City. If he only said a word to his uncle…

“Odd Trouble, don’t do anything unnecessary.”

Wei Han heard that something was amiss in Qi Zhifan’s tone. The Qi family was powerful and influential. It was estimated that Qi Zhifan would ask the head of the bureau to do something, and Wei Han really didn’t like this.

“Unnecessary?” Qi Zhifan’s eyes were cold.

“Shao Yi came over to this side by his own choice. We should respect it.”

“……” Qi Zhifan examined Wei Han with sharp eyes for a long time. Seeing Wei Han biting his lower lip but still looking very stubborn, eventually he sighed lightly and pressed Wei Han’s forehead with his finger. “Wei Han, I find that sometimes, you really need a spanking.”

The person who would dare to repeatedly provoke his anger and fury, probably was only this fool in front of him. But to actually want to hit him, Qi Zhifan couldn’t bear to.

Wei Han touched his forehead and laughed foolishly at Qi Zhifan, “Heheh, Trouble, you’re really good.”

“Don’t try to flatter me! Say it: how many times did Shao Yi hold your hands?”

“Holding hands? Not even once ah.”

“Touching hands also count.”

“Uh…that’s a bit difficult to count.”

“…Well then, I’ll make you slowly count it out clearly in bed tonight.”

This afternoon, Wei Han had something to look for Leng Yan and had to coax Qi Zhifan in bed for a half a day before he finally got his permission. Only then did he dare to walk into Leng Yan’s company.

Because Leng Yan had previously given special instructions, the moment the front desk ladies saw Wei Han come, they immediately contacted Leng Yan.

“Good. Mr. Wei, you can go up.” The receptionist smiled slightly.

“Eh, but didn’t you say that Leng Yan was receiving other guests now? Isn’t it not too good for me to suddenly barge in? It’s okay, I can keep waiting here.”
The young lady laughed twice into her sleeve. “Mr. Wei, please rest assured. Our President Leng said it’s fine.”

“Oh oh, that’s good, thanks.”

After Wei Han followed the secretary Little Wen and knocked on the door, he entered the room and was shocked by the situation.

Chu Chuanyao and Leng Yan were stand face-to-face. Chu Chuanyao was holding a bristling little white cat in his hand, and Leng Yan had a little snake of unknown breed, its entire body of emerald green, wrapped around his wrist. The little snake was flickering its tongue at random…

Wei Han: “……”

Fuck me, what’s this situation?!

“Wei…Big Brother Wei, why…why are you here?!” Chu Chuanyao looked back and saw Wei Han, jumping in fright.

Wei Han waved at him and wryly smiled. “I also want to ask you. Also, are you guys…cat and snake fighting?”

“Of course not.” Chu Chuanyao quickly shook his head and smiling, said, “Big Brother Wei, you really can joke. It’s like this. In the morning, the kind Mr. Leng picked up this stray cat whose foot was injured, but this cat seems to be very afraid of Mr. Leng. For the moment, he couldn’t find someone to adopt it. It happened that I came to find him, and I really like this little guy.”

Saying this, Chu Chuanyao gave the white cat in his arms a stroke. But because Leng Yan and the green snake was in front of it, the little guy was still very nervous.

“It’s really troublesome because our President Leng is disliked by animals,” Little Wen said with a smile.

“It’s fine ah. I don’t think it’s any trouble at all.” Chu Chuanyao shook his head.

“Then what about this snake?”

Wei Han was puzzled and pointed to the snake around Leng Yan’s arm. Fortunately, they were all big men and weren’t afraid of this kind of thing. If it was a little girl who’d come in, she would have screamed.

“It’s an exception. Not only isn’t it the least bit afraid of President Leng, but it’s also very arrogant.” Little Wen’s voice hadn’t fallen when the little snake opened its mouth and bit Leng Yan. Fortunately, its two fangs had been pulled out in advance, and Leng Yan had also injected a serum more than once.

Seeing Wei Han, the two other people, and the cat looking quite unwell, the silent Leng Yan just said, “Little Wen, take Little Jade out first.”

“Okay.” Little Wen bit the bullet and walked over with a special box.

Wei Han and Chu Chuanyao: “……”

Are you sure you want to call a poisonous snake that should be quite ferocious when it grows up, Little…Little Jade?

After that, Wei Han expressed his intention. Recently, a hotel boss was deliberately murdered. Because the hotel had a cooperation with the Leng Group, in order to do a more detailed investigation, Wei Han didn’t want to let go of any aspects and also came to find Leng Yan.

Leng Yan didn’t say much and directly had someone give Wei Han a portfolio. He said that he’d expected Wei Han would come, so he’d already had the relevant information collected.

Wei Han smiled and repeatedly thanked him. He felt more and more that Leng Yan was quite reliable.

“I’d suspected before, but I didn’t expect that your savior was really Leng Yan.”

Leaving Leng Yan’s company with Chu Chuanyao, Wei Han couldn’t help but ruefully say.

“Big Brother Wei, you’re really amazing. How did you know such a great person? He’s the president of the Leng Group ah. You don’t know but when I was preparing to meet him, my heart kept jumping without stop. Before this, I only roughly remembered his stature. Today, when I saw the real person, I found out that he’s super handsome ah! Just like the male lead in a TV show.”

“This…uh, it’s a bit hard to explain in a few words.”

He couldn’t ever say that it was caused by a high bulging crotch, right? And seeing Chu Chuanyao’s eyes light up and admire Leng Yan’s appearance, Wei Han didn’t want to break Leng Yan’s tall image in his mind.

“It’s alright. When you have the time, just slowly tell me. In short, he’s definitely a good guy, and also so kind-hearted, haha.” Chu Chuanyao smiled and teased the kitten in his arm.

“Right, Mr. Leng also said that he really had an eye for me, and said that I really look like a friend he’d met when studying abroad.”

“Oh, so it’s like that ah,” Wei Han faintly answered, but thinking about it again, beside similarities in character, it could also be appearances ah. Then that person who looked similar to Chu Chuanyao and was also in a foreign country, he…

Suddenly, Wei Han’s cell phone rang and he hurriedly picked it up. Shao Yi loudly said, “Wei Han, come quickly. There’s an emergency operation!”
