My Youth Began With Him

3955 From Now On, I will Protect You 5"My sis… just drones on and on…" Lu Yan snapped back to reality; she rubbed the back of her head with a laugh.

Qiao Fei couldn't help but stare at Lu Yan; he was constantly charmed by her cuteness and energy.

"Hey, Psycho Qiao, what are you doing?"

Suddenly, Qiao Fei hurled himself towards Lu Yan, burying her in a deep kiss that lasted what seemed like a lifetime.

Lu Yan was now used to being intimate with Qiao Fei, so she didn't push him away violently like she used to.

Municipal Public Bureau.

It was time to go home; Gao Ran gathered his stuff and was just about to leave when he saw Chen Yuning, whom he hadn't seen in days.

"Director Gao."

"Yuning, you're back." Gao Ran smiled unnaturally.

"Mhm, I was sent to bring over some evidence. I miss the people here." Chen Yuning smiled coyishly - anyone without their guard would immediately far for her smile.

"Director Gao, Yuning bought us coffee too!" One of the female police waved a Starbucks cup over her head.

"Director Gao, this is for you…" Chen Yuning shyly handed a cup of coffee to Gao Ran.

"Oh, I haven't been sleeping well, so no thanks on the coffee. Thank you for thinking of me." Gao Ran was more reluctant than ever to talk to this woman, especially since he figured out her true colors. The cuter Chen Yuning acted, the scarier she seemed.

Gao Ran decided that his wife was the best; although Lingling had a temper, she was real. He wouldn't be able to stand it if the woman he lived with wore a mask her entire life… at this thought, Gao Ran shuddered.

"Director Gao, when I left, I was in a bad mood and didn't have a chance to say goodbye to everyone. No one's working overtime today, so I was wondering if I could treat everyone to dinner. Of course, if you don't come, this dinner probably won't happen."

Chen Yuning made a threat sound innocent and cute. However, Gao Ran knew that if he didn't agree to having dinner with everyone, Chen Yuning would refuse to treat.

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Gao Ran with anticipation.

"Director Gao, you'll agree, right?"

"Yeah, Director Gao, let's go let off some steam. Things have been so tense at the bureau!"

"Director Gao, let's go!"

"Director Gao, let's split the bill, there's too many people. We shouldn't ask Yuning to treat us all."

It was obvious that the rest of the team adored Chen Yuning.

At this point, Gao Ran would seem like a bad boss if he didn't agree to have dinner with everyone. Therefore, after a moment of silence, he nodded. "Okay, let's have dinner, but I'll treat."

"Awesome!"

"Then we'll have to order everything on the menu, Director Gao never treats!"

The team was elated by Gao Ran's decision, and Chen Yuning smiled in satisfaction.

Then, Gao Ran texted Zhu Lingling.

"Honey, are you there?"

"I am."

"The team is having dinner together, I'll be home late."

"Okay."

The truth was, Gao Ran wanted to tell Zhu Lingling that Chen Yuning was coming as well. However, he was worried that his wife might be worried again. Therefore, after some thought, he decided to leave this piece of information.

Zhu Lingling, on the other hand, agreed for him to go immediately because she genuinely thought that it was just a team dinner.

Including Gao Ran and Chen Yuning, a total of 27 people went to have dinner at a Sichuan restaurant.

During dinner, Chen Yuning behaved herself quite well. She didn't even flirt with Gao Ran, leaving the latter to drop his guard.

After some time, Gao Ran stood up to go to the washroom… Chen Yuning saw him leaving and stood up thereafter, following him out of the room.
