Chapter 19: The cause of death
Jia's mouth twitched and she looked back, finding Mingshen furiously waving his hand at her in delight. Accompanied by Huojin, she bent down from beneath the yellow tapes that only allowed the police team to head further inside to the accident scene.
Walking carefully so that she wouldn't disturb any evidence and the sanctity of the incident's scene, she gritted her teeth as she came to a stop. "Yang Mingshen!"
She quietly but indignantly exclaimed. "Can you tone down on that enthusiasm? A member of somebody's family has died and here you are looking all cheery and excited. How would the family feel with this lively attitude of yours when they are mourning their closed one's death!?"
Bojing internally cried.
I was thinking of the same thing!
Huojin sighed and agreed with Jia too. "You will make the cops look irresponsible, Dr. Yang."
Mingshen looked hardly affected or offended. "Are you expecting sympathy from me?"
"We are expecting basic human empathy from you," Jia narrowed her eyes.
"An emotion which eludes me, dear Spicy. My sympathy and my empathy are reserved for only a handful of people who I deem worthy enough to grant it to them," he said with a feelingless chuckle.
"A son who has lost his mother is not worthy of your empathy?"
Mingshen craned his neck and shot a lazy look at Dai Fengge once. "Nope."
