After coming out, she felt as if the heavy stone pressing on her body disappeared instantly. She felt completely relaxed.
So much so that she had the leisure to stare at his legs and think, what a fine pair of legs, nice figure, handsome face, good temperament. He could go for a sexy route with a humorous and witty persona.
It suits him very well.
But, how could she manage to poach him back to the company?
She wouldn't easily let such talent go.
While thinking about this, the man in front suddenly stopped and turned around.
Song Yi, who was lost in her thoughts, bumped into his chest unexpectedly. She let out an "ow" and covered her head. The hard muscles made her head buzz and ache, while a faint scent of tobacco and green tea wafted into her nose.
Besides her head, there was also a collision between softness and hardness.
She knew, and he understood.
The two of them gazed at each other, one pair of eyes deep and dark, the other alluring and fluid.
The air seemed to have frozen.
She had never encountered such a situation, and having just been at the detective team, she felt utterly drained.
Her mind was sluggish now, not knowing what to say to ease the embarrassment.
Tang Si, of course, didn't know what fantasies she'd been entertaining about him just now.
He naturally teased, "Not walking properly, thinking about how to run?"
His half-joking teasing eased the awkwardness, also warning her that if she dared to run, she'd bear the consequences.
It was an accident, not something that needed worrying about at all.
Without waiting for her response, the man directly looked at Zhou Liang behind her: "In the middle of the night, don't be ostentatious, to avoid alarming the citizens. Go change into plain clothes, drive my car there, we'll wait for you in the car."
Zhou Liang didn't find anything unusual: "Okay, Captain Tang, I'll go right away!"
Song Yi suddenly felt a warmth in her heart, her foxy eyes brightly staring at Tang Si as if she wanted to see through him.
Maybe she was overthinking, but she felt that Tang Si's actions were for her.
...
In the detective team's garage.
Tang Si's car was an SUV, the model looked very appealing, wild, gallant, and handsome.
She didn't recognize the brand, but the car exuded a unique sophistication.
"Sit in the back," he said.
Song Yi stared at him for a moment, carefully contemplating this statement.
Is he annoyed with her?
This won't do. If he's annoyed, how can she get him back?
But—
"Okay." She didn't argue.
This radiant and sunny woman, unusually obedient, sat in the back.
The peculiar change in her, Tang Si couldn't find a reasonable explanation for the time being, attributing it all to fear.
As soon as she sat down, Tang Si also got into the car.
Song Yi, with her foxy eyes, looked at him rather surprised.
He glanced at her and lazily spoke, "You seemed quite wronged when asked to sit in the back? Or did you want to sit next to Zhou Liang?"
"No, no."
She immediately understood that Zhou Liang must be the driver. With someone driving, how could he drive himself?
He was even considerate enough to let her sit in the back, sitting with him.
To outsiders, he was attentive; to her, he was just pretending, so well that she was nearly fooled. If not for her young age and having mingled in the entertainment circle witnessing many types, she might have been coaxed by him.
It's undeniable that a man like Tang Si particularly knows how to capture a woman's heart.
But she was not an ordinary woman.
Forget it, after all his actions weren't fake, for tonight she would let him be a good person, keeping in mind that she knew he was actually a cold and indifferent person.
Little did she know—
Tang Si was thinking that Song Yi was at a moment of mental vulnerability, perhaps he could extract some words from her.
During the day, this woman was sharp-tongued, charming yet firm, with a strong sense of guardedness, making her difficult to interrogate.
Once out of the criminal investigation team, her mind would be in a relaxed state.
