Chapter 299. Indication (3)
In the evening, the Bamboo Teahouse was rather quiet. Xi Xiaye sat down in a hidden corner and made a pot of tea before flipping through a magazine about flowers as she listened to the soothing traditional guzheng music.
Inspector Zhang arrived shortly after.
“Sorry for troubling you to make this trip.” Xi Xiaye pointed at the seat opposite her as she spoke to Inspector Zhang. “Please have a seat!”
Inspector Zhang put his jacket aside and sat down. “No worries. You’re good friends with Lao Lin, so you’re my friend too. Where is he? Not here today?”
Xi Xiaye smiled as she poured him some tea. “Professor Lin is on a break these few days. He highly recommended you to me back then. The military academy matter is all thanks to you.”
“You should be thankful for your lover. Without him, things wouldn’t have ended so quickly. By the way, what happened afterward?” Inspector Zhang drank the tea and asked.
“They apologized to me publicly and proved my innocence, so I let the matter go. Otherwise, I might get in trouble as well,” Xi Xiaye replied calmly as she sipped some tea.
Inspector Zhang smiled and nodded. “That’s great. I heard that things are kind of hectic with the Hans the and Xis. I guess that’s karma for them.”
“It’s alright. That’s all in the past now. I wanted to see you today for something else.” Xi Xiaye took a deep breath and stopped her hand movements as she looked at Inspector Zhang calmly.
