Because I Cannot Hurt You

Chapter 105 - A Spoiled Princess And A Clueless Narcissist

At the mall, as Caihong and Chyou reached the mall, a fluffy figure ran up to Caihong and clutched her leg. "Aunty Caihong!"

Siying's gaze sparkled and he turned all shiny seeing her come. Caihong widened her eyes. A smile automatically bloomed on her lips. "Siying!"

She bent and picked him up. "You are here too." Caihong's mood lifted to see him. It was a pleasant surprise to see his adorable face smiling at her. After the allergy incident, she hadn't met him. More like she didn't have the courage to.

Her eyes slightly stung in tears. "You seem alright...I am so glad."

Siying blinked his eyes. "I am always fine! I am always strong like Dada!"

Caihong chuckled. "Indeed. Siying I...I already apologized to your Mama, but I should say sorry to you too. I am sorry I couldn't take care of you that day. If I hadn't messed up then…" her lips trembled and a tear slid down, "you wouldn't have been in such pain... Please forgive Aunty."

Siying's black irises widened upon seeing her cry. He wiped her tears and put his hands on his waist. "It is not Aunty's fault! Don't cry! If you cry, I don't talk to you," he harrumphed and looked away.

Caihong smiled amidst the falling tears.

"Ah, Siying! There you are. I told you many times not to run off like that," Xinyi came huffing.

"Aunty!" Chyou hugged her. Xinyi was shocked to see the little bun. Then she felt overjoyed. "Chyou! You are here too."

"En!"

She glanced at Caihong in surprise. She didn't think she would bring her here. Caihong said, "She wanted to meet you. At long as she doesn't bother me, I am fine. I hope you don't mind…"

"Of course not," Xinyi ruffled her head. "I wanted to meet Chyou too. In fact, Siying was also stubborn to meet you once he heard that we will go shopping together. He had no school today so I brought him with me."

Caihong pinched his cheeks. "Is that so?"

He giggled. "Hehe…"

Finally, Ah Cy and Leina arrived too. "Ah sorry for being late. What's up you two?"

"Siying! Chyou!" Leina already joined the kid's group.

Caihong shook her head. "You still haven't fixed your habit of running late, don't you?"

Ah Cy grinned. "Well, Liang and I were *ahem* were doing-"

"Oof stop it!" Caihong said in disdain, "I understood it. Stop throwing dog food."

"You are just jealous," Ah Cy proudly said. "After all, my Liang is the best.

Xinyi chuckled while Caihong rolled her eyes. "Yeah yeah."

Xinyi asked, "Shall we head inside then?"

At the Han Corps, Zhiyuan sighed for the hundredth time now. He couldn't concentrate on his work at all. No matter how much he tried, he only remembered the scene he saw this morning. A suffocating feeling riled up his heart and he closed his file, feeling frustrated.

He leaned back on his seat and stared at the ceiling.

Qin Fuhua. Qin Fuhua…

After sitting aimlessly for a while, he dialed a number. "Liang. Let's meet somewhere."

---

The police station.

The officers on duty were shocked to see Yunru stepping in Zizi. They whispered among themselves.

"Isn't she the same woman he arrested that day?"

"Did she do something wrong again?"

"But she isn't yelling like before."

Yunru asked one of the officers, "Please bring me one witness statement form."

"Yes sir!"

Yunru stepped inside his office and said, "Come in and have a seat."

Zizi slowly stepped inside and wandered her gaze around his office. It was neat and tidy. Everything was properly arranged into stacks. Her sight fell onto one shelf where she saw some medals, trophies, and pictures.

Suddenly, she felt him stand closer to her. Yunru proudly smiled. "This lowly man here is a hard-working and talented cop, you see."

Zizi looked at him, speechless. "I should compliment you, not you singing praises of yourself. Such a narcissist."

"I have the full right to be a narcissist because I am super good-looking and talented."

Her mouth was wide open. She never thought she would see this side of his. "How did having good looks come here?"

Yunru acted dramatically. "Of course! My face is the main tool in my line of work."

"Huh?"

"Do you know how much this handsome face of mine makes it easier for me to question witnesses and take their statements? People don't like to bother themselves with the investigation and all, but women happily trot to my side, 'asking me' to take their statements."

Zizi's mouth violently twitched.

"I just smile at them and they happily cooperate with me," Yunru scratched his chin, "though their husbands and boyfriends don't cooperate with me at all. I wonder why?"

Zizi was dumbfounded.

After making them jealous as hell, you expect them to cooperate with you?

But instead of feeling frustrated, Zizi burst into laughter. Her shoulders trembled as she tried to hold it in.

Yunru asked, "Why are you laughing?"

Zizi continued laughing. "Nothing...I realized a nickname for you. If you call me a spoiled princess then I should call you a clueless narcissist."

Yunru blinked his eyes. "Wow, you didn't throw a tantrum on that."

"Hah! Because I found something too!" She snorted. "It seems you do have a little talent."

There were a lot of medals and trophies. In many of the pictures too, Yunru was standing with some influential figures.

He shrugged. "Those are so-so. The real medals for any officer are their scars."

"Scars?"

"The ones we get while we are wounded on a mission."

Zizi widened her eyes. She felt curious. "Do you have a scar too?"

Yunru pointed towards his right side of his abdomen. "A scar from a dagger attack. Happened two years back," he chuckled, "sis had fainted seeing the scar."

A scar…

A sense of discomfort welled up in Zizi's chest. She wondered how that scar would be on him.

"Does it still hurt?"

"Nope. The wound was already stitched up. It's just a scar now."

As Zizi's gaze slowly met his, she began to see Yunru in a new light. Last night, she had observed how tanned his skin was and now this scar.

A cop's job is really tough.

Yunru spoke, bringing her out of her stupor, "Let's get to work."

At the same time, Shuang just entered the police station. She asked one officer, "Can I meet officer Soo Yunru?"

"Ah, Sir is busy with one lady, taking her witness statement now. Can you please wait outside his office?"

"Sure. Thanks. I will wait outside."
