Chapter 200: He Has A Girlfriend
Hearing Lin Bai’s question, Chief Feng asked instead of answering,

“How can you be sure that Wang Hao was killed? Can’t it just be a sudden brain disease?”

“Previously, you were the one who reminded us to investigate the medical staff, and now we haven’t caught him. Mr. Lin, do you know something?”

Chief Feng’s gaze was burning, as if he wanted to pierce through Lin Bai with his gaze.

He had never doubted Lin Bai before, but just now, Lin Bai’s question made him suspicious instantly.

This was the first time Lin Bai had seen Chief Feng look at him with such a sharp gaze.

He was so nervous that his heart was beating wildly, but he tried his best to maintain his composure and even forced out a smile.

“Chief Feng, you’re too sensitive. I was just asking casually. I didn’t think too much about it.”

“Wang Hao died so suddenly, so I suspected that he was harmed. I didn’t even think about the sudden illness.”

“Then did he die of an illness?”

At the end of his sentence, Lin Bai mustered up his courage and asked again.

Chief Feng stared at Lin Bai suspiciously, trying to find some flaws in his expression.

After staring at him for a long time, Chief Feng’s gaze softened.

However, he still refused to answer Lin Bai’s question.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Lin. Wang Hao’s case is still under investigation. It’s not convenient for me to reveal the specific information to the public. I hope you understand.”

Lin Bai let out an “OH”in disappointment and did not continue to ask.

“Alright, then just pretend that I didn’t ask.”

“Oh right, Ling Xuewei was also invited by you to ask questions before, right? where is she?”

Chief Feng replied, “I just sent someone to inform her that she can leave. She may have left by now, but she shouldn’t have gone far.”

Lin Bai nodded. “Okay, then I’ll leave too.”

He left in a hurry. As soon as he left the Public Security Bureau, he hurriedly called Ling Xuewei.

The call was picked up quickly. Ling Xuewei’s voice was obviously tired.

“They let you go?”Ling Xuewei asked.

“Yes, where are you?”

Ling Xuewei obviously hesitated for a moment before answering, “On the way to the hospital.”

“Why do you want to go to the hospital?”

Lin Bai blurted out. Then he remembered that Ling Xuewei had been pushed down by Wang Hao and hurt her tailbone.

There was no particularly good treatment for tailbone injuries, so she could only rely on recuperation.

She had been called to the police station for questioning for more than half a day. She had probably been sitting there the whole time, so it must have been very painful. That was why she was in a hurry to go to the hospital.

“Why don’t I help you with acupuncture? It can temporarily numb your nerves and block the pain.”

“Although it can’t make your tailbone recover immediately, it can at least make you feel less uncomfortable.”

Lin Bai believed that his acupuncture technique was definitely more effective than the doctors in the hospital.

The supreme-rulerly medical skills rewarded by the system were not something that ordinary people could compare to.

On the other end of the phone, there was a few seconds of silence.

Ling Xuewei stammered, “There’s no need for that. Um… I, I’m almost there, so I won’t trouble you.”

Lin Bai did not need to think to know that she was lying.

Chief Feng said that she had just left not long ago. How could she reach the hospital so quickly.

She was deliberately lying. It was obvious that she did not want to see him.

Although Lin Bai did not know why Ling Xuewei suddenly did not want to see him, he still decided to respect her wishes.

Therefore, he did not expose this lie. Instead, he said, “If that’s the case, that’s good too. Let the Doctor prescribe some painkillers for you. It should be able to have a certain effect.”

Ling Xuewei hummed softly and skipped the topic.

“I saw the V letter you sent earlier. Our Company did hire a few headhunters two years ago, but we haven’t contacted them for almost two years. I’m not sure if they have changed careers yet.”

“Let me confirm with them first. Then I’ll push the contact information to you.”

Lin Bai said, “There’s no rush. You should take care of your body first.”

“Okay.”

There was another short period of silence, and there was a subtle awkwardness in the atmosphere.

In the end, it was Ling Xuewei who ended the conversation first.

“I’m at the hospital. Let’s not talk about it for now.”

“Okay.”

Lin Bai hung up the phone. He clearly felt that the relationship between him and Ling Xuewei had suddenly become much more distant.

It was clearly not like this before.

What exactly happened that made Ling Xuewei suddenly become so distant from him?

Lin Bai’s heart was filled with doubts, but he still could not think of an answer.

..

On the other side, Ling Xuewei hung up the phone and looked out the window at the rapidly passing street scene. She could not help but feel a wave of bitterness in her heart. There was an indescribable sadness.

“She has a girlfriend.”

She kept reminding herself in her heart.

However, the more she reminded herself, the more intense the bitterness in her heart became.

Although it was only a short moment, the impression that Yu Jinmo left on her was too deep.

That kind of bright and lively temperament made people feel as if her entire body was emitting light. She was like a small sun that was walking.

Full of vitality, full of sunlight, full of healing power.

It was as if just staying by her side would be healed by the energy she emitted.

As for herself?

On the surface, she seemed to be very good. She had looks, figure, and temperament.

However, she knew better than anyone else about the darkness and filth that was deeply buried in her heart.

“Ling Xuewei, how can you compare yourself to him?”

“Give up. You’re not worthy of Mr. Lin. He’s Not Someone You can dream of.”

Ling Xuewei told herself over and over again in her heart.

She stabbed herself in the heart, trying to use this method to force herself to give up on thoughts that she shouldn’t have.

Before she got too deep into it, it was still not too late to turn back.

…

There were still many unread messages on Lin Bai’s letter.

Most of them were from his roommates, asking about the situation. There were also a few messages from Yu Jinmo.

The first message was sent at noon, asking if Lin Bai wanted to have lunch together.

The last one asked why he didn’t reply, and there were two other unanswered voice calls.

The last one was sent half an hour ago, a long paragraph:

“Lin Bai, why haven’t you replied to my messages? Are you busy or did something happen? When I saw that you replied to me, I was worried about you? Today, I was restless all day. I kept feeling like something was going to happen. I was thinking too much, right? Please, reply to my messages quickly.”

Between the lines, she was full of anxiety and worry.

Lin Bai quickly made a call.

Yu Jinmo answered immediately.

“That’s great! You finally contacted me!” Yu Jinmo said excitedly.

Lin Bai said, “I’m sorry for making you worry about me. I was busy with something earlier, so I didn’t have time to look at my phone.”

Actually, when he was questioned at the Public Security Bureau, the police took away Lin Bai’s phone.

But Lin Bai didn’t want to worry Yu Jinmo, so he told a white lie..
