C289 Is he jealous

Outside the office, Tian Youting carried his food case and was about to bring food to Mo Xiaoran. The moment he walked out the door, he bumped into Xiao Mu, who had been passing by the entrance.

What was going on? Tian Youting innocently looked at Xiao Mu with a accusatory gaze. He had not provoked her, since the captain had returned, he tried to avoid her as much as possible, so as to give the Xiao Mu the chance to be attentive to the captain.

"Tian Youting, what, you're not even at the meal time, and you're so solicitous that you want to give food to your lover in that cell of yours?"

"Xiao Mu, what are you saying? Why do I smell a rancid smell?" Tian Youting intentionally sniffed the air and carried the food case in her hands, wanting to leave the Xiao Mu. However the Xiao Mu didn't give him the chance, and blocked his path from the left and right. The soft nail she just met with in Mu Chongya's place stung her heart uncomfortably, and though there was no blood, it was extremely painful.

Towards the Xiao Mu's unruly behavior, Tian Youting could not be bothered, he only gave her a reply: Didn't you just give the captain a cup of coffee? If you were to say that people are made of iron and food are made of steel, they would panic when they eat.

He didn't want to be in a tit for a tat with Xiao Mu, so he walked through the gaps between Xiao Mu's legs and stood in the corridor. The comforting words that Tian Youting spoke that swirled in his throat still didn't come out, Xiao Mu spent so much effort on Mu Chongya, Tian Youting knew, because this time, when the captain came back, there were rumors that the captain was going to be engaged to someone, and as for who he was betrothed to, it was unclear. Moreover, it was unknown where the rumors came from.

It was precisely because of this attitude that did not stop her from admitting it, that Xiao Mu was not at ease. Adding on what she had done before, she was afraid that Mu Chongya would scold her.

Recently, she reluctantly smiled back. It was unknown whether it was because she had felt the pressure, but many dishonest guys in the city had quieted down, and all kinds of crimes were reduced by now, making the police station feel a lot more relaxed. However, Xiao Mu seemed to have a faint feeling that it was related to Mo Xiaoran's case, since Xiao Family was not an ordinary family, and furthermore, Mu Chongya had recently caught a criminal to ruthlessly fix him. As for how to fix it, it was unknown how Xiao Mu would do it.

Mo Xiaoran had woken up late recently, so Tian Youting did not bring breakfast. She was sent early for lunch, and it just so happened that Mo Xiaoran was already done washing his face and rinsing his mouth. Tian Youting was really impressed with Mo Xiaoran.

"Today is a bountiful day." Mo Xiaoran opened the box and saw the steamed pork ribs and chestnut fried chicken inside. She raised her head and looked at Tian Youting who looked a little unnatural, and immediately thought of the policewoman called Xiao Mu. She did not ask Tian Youting, but picked up her chopsticks and continued to eat.

Seeing the delicious food that Mo Xiaoran was eating, he heaved a sigh of relief. His heart was heavy, and in the end, he poured out all of the distress he was feeling.

"Captain is getting engaged. I don't know if it's true or not, but Xiao Mu is feeling really bad. She looked at me like she was an enemy. It wasn't like this in the past." Sighing, Tian Youting closed his eyes. In the past, there was bitterness and sweetness, but now there was only bitterness, not even a single sweetness, and there was also a type of despair and discomfort that he could not describe clearly, because the Xiao Mu he loved no longer had anything left. Muttering, Tian Youting could not figure out what was going on in his heart as he continued, "People can choose their jobs, they can choose their own paths, but they can't choose their own parents."

The moment Mo Xiaoran's chopsticks heard Tian Youting's last sentence, her gaze shifted from the Sweet 'n' Sour Ribs to Tian Youting as she coldly asked: "Do you dislike your parents?"

"No, I'm proud of them." Tian Youting turned his head to look at Mo Xiaoran, and suddenly said: "I am only mourning my withering love, can't you just hold back your tears of sympathy?"

I'm sorry, I was born with undeveloped lacrimal ducts, and I don't have any cells that can sympathize with those who seek trouble." However, after looking at the camera at a hidden spot above her head, she still stopped. Tian Chutian was borrowing her role as a gunner, and seeing that she had a good meal in the past few days, Mo Xiaoxiao did not make it clear, but she knew that her hard work was destined to go down the drain. Mu Chongya would never give up on a marriage for the sake of a small tree, and seeing that Xiao Mu was not a scheming girl, even a pair of foxes, Tian Cui was just a fool hugging his great love and crying in the wind.

After eating, Mo Xiaoran said unwillingly: "Tonight, I still need to make Sweet 'n' Sour Ribs." This smell always made Mo Xiaoran think of the vast azure sea and the silver figure.

Mo Xiaoran knew that there was an aura left behind by Xiao Menghan in the house, she guessed that Tian Youting had sensed it too, if he did not say it, she would not mention it.

The corner of Tian Youting's mouth twitched. He didn't need to worry about Mo Xiaoran asking her about it since he had already fed her the Sweet 'n' Sour Ribs for his month's salary.

Mo Xiaoran was speechless. She had merely eaten a few chops, but he was already so stingy, don't forget, she threw a sentence at Tian Youting: "I still have a few more days before court begins. When the trial ends, no matter what the result, I won't be eating your chops anymore."

After pausing for a moment, Mo Xiaoran continued to speak: "If I were to betray my punishment, then you can treat it as accumulating kindness. If I am not guilty of anything and are released, I will return with a year's worth of sweet and sour pork ribs."

"Are you speaking the truth?"

"Yes, really." Mo Xiaoran's eyes lit up. She really wanted to poke at his painful leg, but after thinking about it later, she nodded and gave Tian Youting a peace pill. "Really."

Tian Youting smiled brilliantly, and then asked Mo Xiaoran a question. Could he pack another serving?

Regarding the development of the case, Tian Youting was really worried. He knew that every piece of evidence in Mu Chongya's hands would cause Mo Xiaoran to be sentenced, and the reporter who he did not know who was, Mu Chongya did not even tell him, but had a faint feeling that Mu Chongya was already striking a blow towards the Xiao Family. Since the last interrogation, Mu Chongya did not do many things and Tian Youting was very free all day, occasionally even doing paperwork, and the people in the team did not seem to be very busy.

In fact, most of the time, it was just to make a cup of tea or to send coffee to Mu Chongya. Tian Youting had never missed a single time, as long as someone invited him, he would eagerly follow them, as they were all there to help out. Sometimes, he even went to karaoke, and it was already very late.
