LIGHTNOVELSTORY Chapter 13 - A Woman's Curiosity
Chapter 13: A Woman’s Curiosity
At three in the morning.
Xiao Yu had to rest after returning to the Criminal Investigation Team.
He had promised to accompany Mu Qingwu to meet the ‘mother-in-law’ at noon.
He needed to be in good condition for that.
Currently, Xiao Yu was lying alone on the guest sofa in the team leader’s office, sleeping soundly.
This treatment wasn’t for just anyone.
No one was jealous; it was earned through ‘ability.’
The others weren’t as fortunate. Under the leadership of Team Leader Zhao Changsheng, they began thoroughly investigating the victim’s past.
Time was running out for solving the case…
At seven o’clock, the phone alarm rang.
Xiao Yu opened his eyes.
He found Team Leader Zhao sitting behind his desk, eyes bloodshot, looking at case files on the computer.
“Get up, go to the cafeteria and eat something.”
Zhao Changsheng said with a smile, “I’ll give you a day off, go home and rest.”
Trainee officers are given certain accommodations during their internship.
Normally, it’s ‘8 to 5’ with the option to leave work, and two days off per week.
Those who are sensible know to stay and work overtime, but the foolish ones run off as soon as it’s time to leave.
“Great, I actually wanted to ask for leave this morning to take care of something.”
Xiao Yu didn’t hold back, “I’ll try to come back to work this afternoon.”
“Good, keep up the enthusiasm.”
Zhao Changsheng liked this junior more and more, nodding with a smile.
Leaving the Criminal Investigation Team, Xiao Yu took out his phone and called Mu Qingwu, “Where are you? Come pick me up.”
“…”
Mu Qingwu was silent for a moment, “You’re treating me like a driver?”
“Of course not.”
Xiao Yu forced a laugh, “Can I take a cab instead?”
“Hmph.”
Mu Qingwu snorted coldly, “I’m at XXXX Fitness Club, come find me.”
A fitness girl?
Xiao Yu’s impression of Mu Qingwu dropped immediately.
As everyone knows.
Girls who love going to the gym, well, it’s hard to describe…
But when he arrived, Xiao Yu took back his prejudice.
This was a women’s fitness club, membership-based, not open to men.
Yet Xiao Yu was an exception, led into a private fitness room.
Walking in, he saw Mu Qingwu running in her workout clothes.
Suddenly, Xiao Yu swallowed.
In the daylight, Mu Qingwu’s fair face glistened with sweat.
Her appearance was pure and elegant, like a lotus untouched by the mud.
Her clear eyes seemed like an icy mirror, hiding a noble and cold demeanor.
Her figure in the workout clothes was curvaceous and perfect.
Especially her legs… how could they be so long?
This made Xiao Yu think of a joke.
Once there was a little ant that loved playing with its legs.
One day, it saw a centipede.
The little ant was delighted and said, “Wow, I could play with these legs for a year!”
With all the effort, using Xiao Yu’s limited vocabulary to describe Mu Qingwu’s figure.
In other words, Wow, it’s explosive!
Xiao Yu felt an urge to find a girlfriend.
Whether she’s a beauty doesn’t matter.
Whether she has a hot, explosive figure doesn’t matter.
It’s not that Xiao Yu was craving Mu Qingwu’s body.
Mainly, he wanted to find true love in this cold society.
Is that wrong?
“Had enough staring?”
Stepping off the treadmill, Mu Qingwu came in front of Xiao Yu, looking directly into his eyes, “Is it nice?”
“Nice… no.”
Xiao Yu snapped back, righteously saying, “Big sis, you misunderstood, I’m not that kind of person.”
Who knows if others would believe it, but he believed it himself!
Mu Qingwu smirked and pointed to the fitness equipment beside her, “Go play by yourself, it’s still early.” (tln :Qingwu mean, he should let out his little jonny by himself lmao)
Expecting a delicate boy to lift weights, what are you thinking… Xiao Yu shook his head, “I stayed up late last night, I don’t want to die!”
Staying up late already stresses the heart.
Staying up late and vigorous exercise can easily lead to sudden death!
“Why did you want to become a police officer?”
Because of the boy’s words, Mu Qingwu frowned.
How many normal girls would want to find a police officer as a partner?
Probably not many.
Why?
Desk police work is fine, but fieldwork…
Have you considered your partner getting injured, disabled, or worse?
If such a situation really happened, could your heart handle it?
“Some things always need someone to do them.”
Xiao Yu smiled, “Right?”
Mu Qingwu was stunned, staring at Xiao Yu.
His words reminded her of her father.
She remembered how, as a child, she loved playing with her father’s third-class merit medal.
Her father was once a soldier and had earned honors.
She remembered asking her father curiously before he passed: Why be a soldier?
What did her father say?
He said: Protecting the country is something that someone has to do!
Earning honors was hard, and her father was injured, unfit to stay in the army.
After transitioning to civilian life, he met her mother, married, and had her.
Her father built a small business into a big company from scratch.
Unfortunately, he passed away when she was in her second year of college.
At 20, she took over her father’s company.
In eight years, she transformed her father’s company into one of the top ten financial conglomerates in the country…
Coming back to her senses, Mu Qingwu’s gaze became complex, giving Xiao Yu a deep look.
What is the world of men like?
She became curious about this big boy, Xiao Yu.
When a woman becomes curious about a man.
What could happen?
