Tang Si listened and paused for a moment.
"Your report doesn't match my speculation, so of course, I have questions."
He looked at her: "Is there a problem?"
The woman nodded and smiled: "Nothing, I was just curious."
Nobody ever knows what Tang Si is thinking. She's known him for many years but has never seen through him.
He always appears lazy and laid-back, sometimes a bit rogue, a bit mischievous, joking around.
No matter what, he always maintains a distant aura.
"Lu Yu, it's late. I'll have someone take you home."
Lu Yu smiled: "No need, it's easy to get a taxi."
Located in the city center, the Crime Squad has convenient transportation, and even in the dead of night, you can still catch a cab.
...
In the office, some on-duty personnel were drowsy, while those involved in Wu Wang's case continued investigating clues.
Tang Si, arms crossed, stood at the door, observing the scene. Finally, through a glass window, he spotted the woman sitting inside.
She was quiet and undisturbed.
After staring at her for a while, Tang Si clapped his hands.
This caught the attention of the people in the office.
"Captain Tang."
"Boss."
Tang Si smiled, looking quite relaxed, and leisurely walked in, casually leaning on a table.
"You've all worked hard overtime, Zhou Liang, order some takeout for everyone and charge it to me."
After he finished speaking.
The office fell silent, staring at Tang Si without saying a word.
Zhou Liang, bewildered, patted his face: "Captain Tang is treating? Did I hear wrong?"
They had worked together for many years; Tang Si treating was almost unheard of.
Though he's approachable, there's never been a hint of generosity, everything always went through official accounts.
To have him pay out of pocket was simply impossible.
Tang Si's gaze fell coldly on Zhou Liang.
With a shiver: "Quick, quick! Order whatever you want to eat before Captain Tang changes his mind."
"Finally, our Captain Tang is doing something decent today."
Watching everyone gather around Zhou Liang.
Tang Si's lips curled slightly, ignoring Zhou Liang's comment: "Order me a wonton, no spice."
Zhou Liang: "Got it!"
...
Song Yi could hear the commotion outside but couldn't see anything.
Yet, intuition told her he was back, but after a long time, Tang Si hadn't come in.
Song Yi looked at the officer guarding her, finally couldn't resist saying: "I want to see your Captain Tang."
"Stay put and don't stir up any trouble."
"I want to see him," Song Yi said, "or I'll file a complaint against him."
"...?"
Receiving a puzzled look from the officer, Song Yi said: "He hurt me; I'm complaining about his illegal use of force on me."
"..."
"Click—" The door was pushed open at this moment.
A man at the door entered with a bowl of wontons.
Tang Si's gaze fell on the officer. His lips moved slightly: "You guys head out, they ordered take-out, have something to eat."
After they left, Tang Si sat across from Song Yi.
He pushed the wontons in front of Song Yi and then crossed his legs, looking at the chair: "Eat up."
"Are suspects always treated this well? You didn't poison it, did you?"
Tang Si's lips curled: "Eat if you want."
Song Yi wasn't a reserved person, she was about to start eating when she stopped and glanced at Tang Si: "You're not eating?"
Tang Si raised an eyebrow at her, speaking lazily: "If you don't mind, I can eat with you."
Song Yi: "..."
What a scoundrel!
Watching her guard the wontons, Tang Si chuckled: "Eat quickly before it gets cold."
"..." That actually sounds somewhat human.
The next second—
"Eating with you is like you're taking advantage of me." He lowered his head, fiddling with the lighter in his hand, then looked up at her and continued, "I won't give you the chance to take advantage of me."
"..." Sorry, he's just a jerk.
A foul-mouthed jerk.
