Chapter 416: You Truly are a Towering Figure Amongst Women

After the professor left the lab, Feng Shanshan looked at Mu Qiqi. “I see you’ve already gotten used to the role of forensic doctor ahead of schedule.”

Mu Qiqi leaned beside the basin and asked in return, “Weren’t you keen on having me pay the price for what happened to your friends? Are you singing a different tune now?”

“I didn’t expect that you would keep that at heart!” Feng Shanshan laughed. “Those three got what they deserved. I was only threatening you in the

Mu Qiqi turned and approached her at those words. “I’ve never liked the double-crossing types. I think it’s better if we don’t speak so that both of us wouldn’t feel disgusted. Isn’t that so?”

“You really are petty…”

Mu Qiqi did not reply to that, whereas the professor had returned to the lab, seemingly sensing something upon seeing the unusual air between them.

“The young masters are running through their lists now, and I trust there would soon be a match. Still, I really hope there won’t be a pile of corpse chunks anymore.”

“Professor, I’ve found something else.”

“Tell me.” The professor told Mu Qiqi while washing his hands.

“Why, amongst the five corpses, were the two male adults the only ones who were missing both their left palms? Is it possible that the culprit has a missing left hand, and was jealous of these men’s complete bodies despite being dead, and chopped it off to vent their frustration?”

“I would have the police add that to their investigation. Now let us examine the bodies again to see if we could get anything new. Feng Shanshan, come help us too!” The professor instructed.

As Feng Shanshan watched Mu Qiqi composedly walked between the corpse chunks with her magnifying glass, she mustered her courage to approach the chunks as well. However, no matter how reluctant she was to admit her defeat, she was soon vomiting into the basin after a look.

“It’s now proven that you are towering figure amongst women.” The professor couldn’t help praising Mu Qiqi then—she had been surprisingly calm the first time she saw this revolting scene.

Mu Qiqi grinned, and continued searching for clues and answers from the corpses.

Feng Shanshan returned to Mu Qiqi’s side after vomiting for a while, but she promptly returned to the basin once she glanced at the headless corpse to puke her guts out again.

“You may leave if you can’t bear it.”

Nonetheless, after puking for a while, Feng Shanshan eventually managed to compose herself and tell Mu Qiqi, “I’ll admit I fall short here. Even so, I would surpass you here.”

Mu Qiqi felt nothing good from Feng Shanshan at all. She even noticed by instincts that the girl was as overbearing as Old Sheng, and that the two were remarkably similar.

It seems that some misery was unavoidable at the forensics lab soon.

In the evening, Xu Che drove to entrance the Criminal Investigation Bureau, with Sheng Xiao seated at the back and giving Mu Qiqi a call.

Mu Qiqi changed her clothes and left, with Feng Shanshan following her. When she saw Sheng Xiao’s car, however, she giggled coldly, and her eyes were filled with mockery.

That Crown Prince had been spoiled to the heavens. Really, no one expected that he would be so head over heels for Mu Qiqi that he would leave Huang Yao.

No wonder Old Sheng would pay her so well so that she kept a close eye Mu Qiqi and report back to the old man.

Still, Mu Qiqi’s daily life at campus followed a strict schedule and offered no openings, so there was no telling why the old man would still want her watched.

Meanwhile, when Mu Qiqi got on the car and realized that they were not heading home, she turned to ask Sheng Xiao, “Where are we going?”

“I was about to get you when I got a call from Secretary He, asking me out to dinner. That’s why I simply decided to bring you along.” Sheng Xiao explained.

“I know who Secretary He is, but is it really fine bringing me along?”

“What’s the problem? You are the mistress of the Shen family.” Sheng Xiao thought nothing of it—moreover, who would dare have an opinion about his woman?

Mu Qiqi nodded and thought nothing more. When the time comes, she would just keep her head down and eat away, and do all she could not to interrupt the men’s talk.

Soon, the trio arrived at the hotel, and Sheng Xiao led Mu Qiqi to a rather lively private room.

Secretary He lifted a brow at Sheng Xiao when he saw Mu Qiqi. “And would this be my sister-in-law?”

“Hello.” Mu Qiqi quickly greeted him.

“Niece of Mayor Sheng and granddaughter of the old senior officer… you really are special.” With those words, Secretary He raised his glass and told Sheng Xiao, “Let’s not have Sis-in-law drink since she’s still young. You drink in her stead!”

Sheng Xiao took off his coat and put it over Mu Qiqi’s chair, while also putting his arm on it in a protective position.

He grinned. “That means I would have to drink two portions—I’m not falling for that. Moreover, my little can hold her liquor.”

Meanwhile, Mu Qiqi scanned around the room. There were around eleven people there including her and Sheng Xiao, and all of them appeared straight and imposing, with no hint of greasiness despite quite a few of them being middle-aged.

This was Sheng Xiao’s social circle now.

And though Secretary He loved his jokes, he was a straight and honest man who possessed vigor.

“Such a ruthless man. She really should look for another man.”

Mu Qiqi laughed along while keeping her head down as she ate. After all, she knew that the men were actually discussing a potential partnership in between their joke, and she neither understood nor needed to be a part of it.

Even so, she found it worth watching Sheng Xiao sparring with words against these warlords.

No wonder he never lost in negotiating agreement.

It was even rarer that these men were not business-minded at all and respected women very much. From the moment appetizers were served up until three rounds of alcohol after meal, they never once joked around about woman.

And Mu Qiqi was most satisfied about that!

Eventually, most of the guests left the table and just a handful were left, nursing their liquor.

“True love is so rare in this world, cherish it if you do encounter it. Don’t split no matter what happens, and try to be like me and my wife—in the year we got married, we quarreled to the point of seeking divorce no less than a hundred times, but we felt miserable each time we arrived outside the civil office.”

“The mere thought of a cherished wife suddenly becoming another’s was unbearable. That is why I decided with my wife that for the rest of our life, whoever mentions the word divorce is doing the chores for life.”

Mu Qiqi held Sheng Xiao’s arm, entranced by the story.

“Here, we are all hot-blooded military men who swore to protect home and country. Am I even a man if I can’t protect my wife?”

“I’ll have you meet my wife and son if the opportunity arises in the future. My son is simply gorgeous.”

There was little wonder why Xiao Xiao was meeting Secretary He so frequently lately—it turned out that he was a man of passion as well.
