Chapter 295 — Passed Back and Forth: Two People Too Far Apart, Close in Age Yet Different in Status, Never Meant to Walk Together

On the contrary, Tang Yun was his true match. If the two of them got into the same university, they would have a fairly bright future ahead of them.

Guan Xin gave a faint sigh, a trace of loss in her heart. For the first time she had felt her heart stir for a man, yet he did not belong to her.

"He is not my boyfriend at all..." Hearing Guan Xin's apology, Tang Yun felt embarrassed instead.

"Heh." Guan Xin smiled. This little girlfriend of Wei Zhao's was quite amusing.

Tang Yun grew embarrassed under Guan Xin's smile: "Sister Guan Xin, what are you laughing at! If he is not, he is not. If you like him, just take him!"

"Take him? Since he is not your boyfriend, how can you take it upon yourself to give him to me?" Guan Xin could not resist teasing Tang Yun.

Guan Xin herself was really no more than an inexperienced young girl. At home, in the hospital, before her friends, she was still a child, but facing Tang Yun, who was two years younger than her, she naturally put on something of an elder sister's air, and seemed a little more mature.

"This..." Tang Yun was taken aback. Yes, if he was not her boyfriend, by what right could she pass him back and forth?

Wei Zhao stood to one side with a wry smile. Was he not cargo either? To be passed back and forth?

"You are Miss Guan Xin, right? Please come with us to give a statement." Qiu Lingshan walked over, looking at Guan Xin, who had just climbed down from Wei Zhao, with a slight frown. Did this pretty nurse have something to do with Wei Zhao too?

"Is there something wrong with your head?" Wei Zhao turned his head: "Can you not see her neck was hurt by that idiot?"

Idiot? Qiu Lingshan froze, smiling bitterly to herself. Only Wei Zhao could call Huang Guanya an idiot. The man who had put her on full alert was in Wei Zhao's eyes nothing but an idiot!

Yet Qiu Lingshan could find nothing to say in reply. After all, Wei Zhao had finished off Huang Guanya in a matter of seconds. Before Wei Zhao, he really was just an idiot.

Still, Wei Zhao's words jarred on the ear. What did he mean by asking if her head was sick? This fellow had asked more than once whether something was wrong with her head. That was no way to run a person down.

"Wei Zhao, what did you say?" Qiu Lingshan glared at Wei Zhao: "You have to come back with me to give a statement! You killed someone, do you know that?"

"I acted bravely for a just cause, all right?" Wei Zhao shrugged: "Besides, you told me to take him out."

"When did I ever tell you to take him out?" Qiu Lingshan shot back.

"If you did not tell me to take him out, why did you ask me why I could not find a chance to finish off Huang Guanya?" Wei Zhao curled his lip, unwilling to argue over such meaningless things, but this tigress would not let up, so Wei Zhao had no choice but to deal with her.

"You..." Qiu Lingshan was choked with anger. "I only asked that afterward!"

"Oh, your asking afterward proves you hoped beforehand that I would finish him off." Wei Zhao said: "Otherwise why did you signal me with your eyes? Are your eyes broken? Do you have facial paralysis?"

"You..." Qiu Lingshan stared at Wei Zhao like a tigress, as if she could devour him alive. Yet she came off worse every time before him, and Qiu Lingshan truly wondered if he was her nemesis.

Liu Wangli watched the exasperated Qiu Lingshan from afar, then glanced at Guan Xin, whose ties with Wei Zhao seemed far from shallow, and felt puzzled. Was a love triangle not exciting enough that a love square had to appear?

"Enough, stop with your you-you. You owe me another favor! I will come to you this afternoon to get my car registered. Wait for me." After saying that, Wei Zhao turned away and ignored Qiu Lingshan, saying to Guan Xin instead: "Go put some medicine on your neck. There is still blood."

"Mm..." Guan Xin was a nurse herself and naturally knew how serious her injury was. In fact it was only a scrape of skin, nothing at all.

After applying medicine, Guan Xin was taken away by the police to give a statement, while as for Wei Zhao, Qiu Lingshan hesitated for a long time and still could not make up her mind to seek him out for a statement. Anyway, was he not coming to her in the afternoon to register his car? She would take his statement then.

On the way back to Xiaofen's ward, Wei Zhao reached for Tang Yun's hand, but Tang Yun twisted away shyly and shook him off.

"When will you make good on it?" Wei Zhao asked with a grin.

"Make good on what?" Tang Yun was slightly taken aback.

"Kiss me." Wei Zhao said.

"Let's talk about it next time!" Tang Yun gave Wei Zhao a withering look. The little courage in her heart had long been scattered by what happened with Guan Xin. Where could she still find the courage to kiss Wei Zhao?

"Then shall I kiss you?" Wei Zhao naturally knew why Tang Yun had looked so gloomy all the way.

"Drop dead!" Tang Yun would never agree.

"Heh..." Wei Zhao was in no hurry. He walked into the ward together with Tang Yun and glanced at the time. It was almost time for afternoon classes.

Kang Xiaobo was saying farewell to Xiaofen. As for accompanying Kang Xiaobo to his family banquet on the weekend, Xiaofen had not yet made a final decision. She needed to consider it first.

Kang Xiaobo did not press her, only asking her to give him an answer once she had thought it over.

The four left the hospital together and hailed a taxi at the entrance. Wei Zhao got out near the villa district. He had already told Kang Xiaobo and Tang Yun that he was going to register his license plate in the afternoon.

Anyway, cutting class had become routine for Wei Zhao, and none of them minded anymore. Tang Yun could do nothing about it. Young Master Lin was simply that kind of student. To expect him to sit quietly in school and study was impossible.

Wei Zhao drove the battered van without plates all the way to the criminal investigation team of the Songshan City Police Bureau. Luckily enough, he did not meet any traffic police on the way, or he would have had to call Qiu Lingshan again.

Qiu Lingshan sat in her office feeling irritated. Despite all-out rescue efforts, Liu Bojia had not passed the critical stage and was now kept alive on a ventilator, with no one knowing when he might wake up.

The lead in the maniac killer's family annihilation case, found with such difficulty, was about to be cut off just like that. The pressure on Qiu Lingshan was immense, making her wonder whether she was truly fit for her present work.

When Wei Zhao arrived, Qiu Lingshan uttered no sarcasm. She really did not dare offend Wei Zhao too deeply! In the past she had solved cases by relying on Yang Huaijun, and now... she basically relied on Wei Zhao.

Qiu Lingshan felt how useless she was. Without relying on others, could she not handle cases at all? It was a contradictory state of mind. Though she thought so, she had no remedy.

After copying down the VIN and engine number of the battered van, Qiu Lingshan made a direct call to the vehicle control office and traced the van's information. The van's currently registered owner turned out to be the owner of a dealership in the secondhand car market.

After asking over the phone, Qiu Lingshan was able to confirm that the vehicle was not stolen. Some time ago, Black Panther had bought it specially to commit crimes, paying ten thousand yuan and driving it away first, telling the dealership owner he would return in a few days to complete the transfer.
