The more Tao Yao thought about it, the more his head hurt. He couldn't help but stomp on the accelerator a few times to increase his speed.

"Du, du, du …"

Tao Tian suddenly thought of something. The moment he heard this, he knew it was Lei Zichen. Tao Tian held the steering wheel with one hand and stuffed the earphones into place with the other.

"Hey …" Tao Tian snappily said.

"Yao Yao, did you go home? "I might be busy late today." Lei Zichen didn't notice the displeasure in Tao Tian's tone and asked in concern.

"I'm on my way home." Tao Tian gave a very concise answer.

"Yao Yao, I will be very busy today. I'll call you later tonight. You have to be careful on your way." Lei Zichen didn't notice anything wrong with Tao Tian at all. He hurriedly hung up the phone and got back to work.

"Hmph." Tao Tian coldly snorted into the phone. His heart was agitated as he increased the speed of the car and quickly drove back home.

"Grandfather, Big Brother, I'm back." As soon as Tao Tian entered the house, he shouted loudly and threw the car keys on the tea table.

"Hahaha, Haotian, you're the one who thought it through." Tao Weiguang's candid laughter came from the study room. It was obvious that he was talking about something happy.

Tao Tian furrowed his brows and silently walked into his own room.

"Miss, you're back." Qing Qing happily welcomed Tao Tian.

"That's right …" Tao Tian replied weakly.

"Why, miss, I'll tell you." Qing Qing seemed to have been immersed in happiness, not noticing Tao Tian's strange behavior at all.

"Aiya, what's there to say?" Tao Yao was already frustrated. After being entangled by Qing Qing, he became even more frustrated.

"Miss, did you know that young master Lei's father came to our house again?" Qing Qing was very excited.

"So what? What's so strange about that? They were cooperating to begin with."

"Oh, no, miss." Qing Qing pulled at Tao Tian, "Miss, Miss, do you know? Old Master Lei, you are here to discuss an important matter with our old master. "

"What can happen?" Tao Tian didn't even raise his eyelids. He picked up an apple from the fruit basket and took a bite.

"Eh? Miss, could it be that you're not curious at all about what's going on?"

"I'm not as good as you are." Tao Tian couldn't be bothered to care about Qing Qing. He continued to seriously chew the apple.

"Miss, Master Lei, we are here to discuss the marriage between you and Master Lei." Qing Qing couldn't help but tell him the truth.

"What!" Tao Tian almost choked on the apple in his mouth.

"Miss, you and Young Master Lei love each other so much, have you never thought of getting married?" Qing Qing had an expression of infatuation, as if she was the one who was going to marry Lei Zichen.

"Marry?" In fact, Tao Tian really wanted to be together with Lei Zichen every day. He was so protective of her, appearing when she was in danger, saving her, promising that she would always protect her. How could she not want to marry him?

It was just that Irene's words made her very angry.

"Forget it, who cares if he did it the first time or the second time. Anyway, the last time is mine." Tao Tian comforted himself.

"Du, du, du …" The phone rang again. It was still Lei Zichen.

"Hello, Zichen." Tao Tian's voice was somewhat clear.

"Yao Yao, are you home yet?" Lei Zichen's voice was filled with the same concern as before.

"We're home. Your dad is here too." Thinking that he was about to become a bride, Tao Tian also had a trace of small happiness.

"Oh? What was he doing? "Business?" Lei Zichen was also surprised.

"No," Tao Tian said loudly. "Uncle Lei, you're here …" Lei Zichen probably never took the initiative to ask for her hand in marriage. But now, she didn't want to take the initiative and say the word 'marriage' to Lei Zichen.

"What are you doing here?" Lei Zichen curiously asked.

"Master Lei, Master Lei is here to discuss your marriage with Master!" Qing Qing screamed at the phone, not caring for her life.

"Stupid girl, what nonsense are you spouting?!" Being yelled at by Qing Qing, Tao Tian's face immediately turned red.

"Oh …" Lei Zichen had a look of realization on his face, but he didn't continue speaking.

"Why? Are you not willing?" Hearing that Lei Zichen didn't react at all, Tao Tian couldn't help but ask.

Thinking like this, although Irene's words made Tao Tian very angry today, her heart had always been with him, never leaving him.

Even if he lied to me, I also lied to him, even, Tao Tian comforted himself in his heart.

"Haha, I'm willing. I was just teasing you on purpose …" Lei Zichen's tone sounded like he had succeeded in a conspiracy, "Haha, it seems like you're in a hurry to marry me."

"I can't be bothered with you. Aren't you very busy? There's time to tease me. " Tao Tian was somewhat annoyed.

"Hur hur, I won't say anymore. I'm going to busy myself. Be good and don't be angry at me." Lei Zichen coaxed Tao Tian.

"Alright, alright, why are you so busy today?" Tao Yao wanted to hang up the phone, but she couldn't help but ask this question.

"Ugh …" "Today …" Being asked this question, Lei Zichen was somewhat hesitant, "There's an important case today that has entered the discussion phase, so it's rather busy …"

"Important case?" After calculating the time, Tao Tian immediately understood, "You're talking about Su Shigang."

"Uh, Yao Yao, there's no evidence right now, so we're in a meeting to discuss whether it's natural death or murder. But nothing was left at the scene, and as for the recording in Paris tonight, it didn't show that this woman had any intention to murder Su Shigang."

"You … "Are you helping me?" Tao Tian suddenly asked.

"Ugh …" I, I don't have enough evidence... The investigation is still under way. " Even though he had already guessed it, there was no evidence to prove that Tao Tian had said so. After all, Gu arts were a very evil thing and it was very difficult to leave behind evidence. Furthermore, she was good at disguising herself and knew how to avoid being monitored, so it was clear that she had received professional training.

"Alright, I know it's not convenient for you to speak. Go ahead and busy yourself. I'm not going to speak to you anymore. Let's talk when we're free. Bye bye." Tao Tian spoke in a very relaxed manner, but his heart was filled with complex emotions. Although his identity as an assassin was known by very few, it was already seen through by Lei Zichen. He was also a police officer, yet he unknowingly brought him this much trouble.

Thinking like this, the displeasure from before vanished like smoke in thin air.

"Yao Yao, you're back. It just so happens that Grandpa and Uncle Lei have something important to discuss with you." Tao Weiguang, speaking loudly, pushed open the door and entered Tao Tian's room.

"Grandfather, is there something?" Tao Tian pretended to be unaware as he asked. After all, girls were still shy.

"Hurry up and come to grandpa's study. Uncle Lei needs to properly chat with you about the matter between you and Zichen." As Tao Weiguang said this, he pulled Tao Tian to the study room.

Lei Haotian was sitting on the study's sofa. "Uncle Lei." Tao Tian politely greeted Lei Haotian.

"Hehe, Yao Yao, how are you?" Lei Haotian smiled as he sized up Tao Tian. At this time, Tao Tian had already changed into a pink housedress. Because of his previous unsightly mood, his hair had been randomly tied behind his head.

After being looked at like this by Lei Haotian, Tao Tian couldn't help but feel nervous. He feared that his appearance would arouse the loathing of his future father-in-law, but what she didn't know was that this natural appearance of hers was the best in Lei Haotian's heart.

"Haha, as expected of Tao Weiguang's granddaughter. She's different from the masses. Her appearance is delicate and pretty, and her temperament is outstanding. My son does have some good insight."
