Chapter 152 - 152: Do you think I’m blind?



When Qiao Yin heard him mention pan-fried dumplings, it reminded her of the delicious breakfast she had, and she found herself begrudgingly reconciling.

She cooked noodles for two, added some green vegetables, sliced a few pieces of ham, and finally sprinkled some chopped scallions on top.

It was just a simple bowl of noodles, but hers looked extraordinarily appetizing.

The soup base was clear, the noodles were smooth, the greens were vibrant, and the ham was tender and pink.

She served herself a small bowl and gave Lu Lingche a large one.

However, after a few bites, Lu Lingche noticed something was off: “Why don’t I have any poached eggs in my bowl?”

Qiao Yin took a bite of her ham, her face unchanged: “We only had one egg left at home.”

“Qiao Yin, do you think I’m blind?”

“What’s wrong?”

“You have two poached eggs in your bowl!”

Qiao Yin quickly swallowed one of the eggs and then looked at him, “Now there’s only one left.”

Lu Lingche’s face darkened suddenly.

How much did she dislike him, that she wouldn’t even share an egg?

Seeing his displeasure, Qiao Yin guarded her bowl warily, “I’m the injured party; you can’t steal my egg.”

Lu Lingche, driven beyond his threshold of tolerance, knocked her on the head with his chopsticks, “I’m keeping tabs on this. You wait and see!”

Qiao Yin rubbed her head where it hurt, glared at him, and continued to eat her noodles, undeterred by his threat.

Who should wait was still uncertain!

She was soon leaving for a business trip to Finland with Dongfang Mu, and she had to help him snatch the project this time around, so she could bring down Lu Lingche!

Lu Lingche was also very hungry. He had not eaten at noon, so he stopped bickering and started eating quickly.

Even though his bowl contained more noodles than Qiao Yin’s, he still finished first.

He retrieved a napkin, wiped his mouth, then looked calmly at Qiao Yin, who was sitting across from him, devouring her meal.

His eyes held a trace of enquiry. Even though she sat right before him, he felt as if she was becoming more unfamiliar, more opaque to him.

Qiao Yin felt that Lu Lingche was a bit off today, but she couldn’t be bothered to ask.

She no longer cared about his thoughts.

Once she finished eating, Lu Lingche spoke, “The police want you to go to the station to give a statement, to understand the course of the kidnapping. Your testimony will affect how the two kidnappers are sentenced.”

“Understood.”

“Go change your clothes, I’ll take you there.”

Qiao Yin was indeed uneasy about being out on her own right now. Since Lu Lingche offered to accompany her, she didn’t refuse.

She quickly went and changed her clothes, picked up her mobile phone and her bag, and said, “Let’s go!”

Lu Lingche stood up and walked out with her.

As they neared the door, he suddenly noticed a book titled ‘The Theory and Practice of Program Design’ in English lying in the somewhat messy living room, which had been disarrayed by the couple.

He couldn’t help but ask her, “Have you been studying computer-related knowledge?”

Qiao Yin followed his gaze to the book.

She impassively pushed him out the door, refusing to let him see her other books, “It was given to me by my colleagues back when I was working at Starlight Technology. They’ve given me quite a few other things as well. If you hadn’t gotten me fired, I’d probably have received even more books.”

So, they were gifts from others.

He knew it was unlikely she would buy such a book. An English book on complex program design at that, he doubted she could understand it if she tried.

They left the building and got into the car together, and headed to the police station.

By the time Qiao Yin finished her statement and left the police station, it was already dark.

The police asked numerous detailed questions, more than once, especially since Qiao Yin had given a favorable testimony for the younger kidnapper.

She informed the authorities that the young kidnapper indeed had no intention to kill her and had always tried to dissuade his father from killing.

As to whether the young kidnapper had participated in planning the kidnapping, she didn’t know, and didn’t make any reckless claim.

She learned from the police that the name of the young kidnapper was Shi Song, who indeed was only seventeen years old. Shi Song dropped out of school at an early age and had been working as a laborer at construction sites with his father.

His mother used to work on the construction site as well until one day she was fatally impaled by a steel bar.

Shengling Group’s affiliated construction company gave nine hundred thousand yuan as compensation, but it was all pocketed by Huang Liwei. He only gave father and son five thousand yuan for funeral expenses.

This was the real reason why the kidnapper murdered Huang Liwei..
