Grocery Store No.514 - Chapter 87

Chapter 87

Jiang Chengyan came out of the interrogation room and went straight to the director’s office, not for any other reason, just to take a leave of absence. After Sun Ting’s confession, the director readily gave Jiang Chengyan three days of leave, but only after all the information was handed over to the court.

“Hua’an, say… this director really…. The case has already been closed,  and they can do well in the follow-up work without me. Why do they have to hand it over to the court before granting my leave request.” Jiang Chengyan peeled an orange while complaining.

Listening to the casual coquettish meaning in Jiang Chengyan’s tone, Ling Hua’an raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile, “because you can work harder, that’s why your director does this. It shows that he believes in your ability. I can walk around freely now and don’t need to be guarded. So, you can work at ease.”

“But I want to be with you.” Jiang Chengyan said, blushing embarrassedly, and he fed the peeled oranges to Ling Hua’an’s mouth.

Ling Hua’an opened his mouth and took it along with Jiang Chengyan’s finger.

Jiang Chengyan’s body stiffened, he quickly retracted his hand, looked at the door of the ward with a guilty conscience, and said, “Hua’an, don’t make trouble, I didn’t lock the door.”

“Captain Jiang, what time is it now?”

Jiang Chengyan was stunned, then he looked at his phone and said, “It’s already nine o’clock. What’s wrong?”

Ling Hua’an smiled and said, “Nine o’clock is already very late. Shouldn’t Team Jiang lock the door and get ready for bed?”

Jiang Chengyan didn’t know what to think, the blush on his face deepened, and he said, “It’s only nine o’clock, isn’t it a bit early, and your IV drip hasn’t finished yet.”

“It’s not early. In ancient times people went to bed at 5:00. Captain Jiang locked the door first and call someone when the IV was finished later.”

“This is not good……”

Before Jiang Chengyan could finish speaking, Ling Hua’an wrapped his arms around his neck and kissed the chattering mouth. He couldn’t help but sigh in his heart: to people who don’t understand the situation, he should cut their nonsense and act directly.

There was a slight chill on his body, and Jiang Chengyan, who was dizzy after being kissed, reluctantly regained his senses, gently pushed Ling Hua’an away, and panted slightly, “Hua’an, no, you…you are still injured.”

“Captain Jiang, we haven’t done it for ten days. Don’t you want to?”

Ling Hua’an’s low voice rang in his ears, his warm breath brushed against his earlobe, and Jiang Chengyan’s body trembled lightly, causing him to feel a little bit excited. But when his eyes touched Ling Hua’an’s pale face, he quickly calmed down and said firmly, “No, I care more about your body than that. Hua’an, wait until you are healed. We have time. You can bear it.”

Ling Hua’an smiled bitterly and asked, “No?”

Jiang Chengyan subconsciously wanted to be soft-hearted, but when the words reached his mouth, he swallowed them back and said firmly, “No!”

Ling Hua’an said helplessly, “Captain Jiang, you are so cruel.”

Jiang Chengyan blushed and said, “When you are healed, you can do whatever you want ……”

Ling Hua’an smiled at the bottom of his eyes and said, “this is what Captain Jiang said. You get your words back.”

Looking at the smile at the corner of Ling Hua’an’s mouth, Jiang Chengyan always felt that he had fallen into a pit again, but when he thought that it was Ling Hua’an who had dug the pit for him, the corner of his mouth couldn’t help but lift up and say, “what did I say? Who can prove it? I didn’t say anything.”

Ling Hua’an raised his eyebrows and said, “Captain Jiang is trying to cheat?”

“No, I didn’t say anything in the first place. Hua’an, you can’t accuse people wrongly.” Jiang Chengyan’s mouth was raised repeatedly, and he couldn’t hold it down.

The smile in Ling Hua’an’s eyes gradually deepened, and he said, “Captain Jiang, you seem to have forgotten what I do. How do you know I have no witnesses?”

Jiang Chengyan’s body stiffened, subconsciously looked around, and said, “Who’s here? Shen Xin? Or someone else?”

Looking at Jiang Chengyan’s reaction, Ling Hua’an could barely hide the smile under his eyes and said, “I have a witness, so does what Captain Jiang said before count?”

Jiang Chengyan blushed like a monkey’s butt and said in annoyance, “It doesn’t count! In the next month, no, two months, don’t even think about touching me.”

Seeing that the joke was too big, Ling Hua’an quickly coaxed, “don’t be angry, Captain Jiang, I’m joking with you. There’s no one else here. How could I let others see your body.”

Jiang Chengyan could not help but breathe a sigh of relief but was still annoyed and asked, “Hua’an, if you’re not teasing me, do you feel itchy?”

Ling Hua’an smiled playfully and said, “Yes, not only is my heart itching. It’s itching everywhere. Why don’t you give me a scratch?”

Jiang Chengyan was amused by what Ling Hua’an said and said,  “what a thick skin, who wants to scratch you?”

Ling Hua’an put away the playful smile on his face and said, “Captain Jiang, tomorrow you help me check a VX number. The number is HAO783924. I want the information of this number owner.”

Jiang Chengyan repeated the number and asked, “Hua’an, why are you checking this number?

“This is the VX number of the master who helped Gao Ying invoke souls ……” Ling Hua’an repeated the detailed information that Hu Si had told him about the Hao family.

Jiang Chengyan frowned and said, “do you suspect that Zhang Aihua’s ancient book about the Xiyu Cult was given to her by Hao family?”

“This cult in Xiyu perished more than 500 years ago. Because they practiced evil arts, the entire library of the cult was burned to the ground. The book about death and life is the most vicious among their other classics, which is impossible to save. If there is such a book, it will be rewritten down on the memories of the surviving cultists. The seventeenth generation of the Hao family once practiced the techniques of the Xiyu cult. That’s why I have such doubts.”

“If it is true that Hao family gave the book to Zhang Aihua, what is their purpose? ” Jiang Chengyan’s frown became tighter.

Ling Hua’an shook his head and said, “I don’t know yet. But in the case of Sun Ting, there must be a shadow of Hao family. No matter what their purpose is, it’s not a good thing. We’d better prepare early.”

“Okay, I’ll check it out tomorrow.” Jiang Chengyan quickly entered the VX number into the memo on the phone.

“Captain Jiang, how about the woman Gao Ying killed? Has the body been found?”

“I have informed the Bincheng Criminal Investigation Team about this matter. They should have found it. I was a little busy today, so I did not pay much attention. I will ask about it tomorrow?”  Jiang Chengyan glanced at the hanging bottle. Then he stood up to press the button at the head of the bed.

The nurse quickly came in and pulled the needle off the back of Ling Hua’an’s hand. After hearing the nurse go out, Ling Hua’an smiled and said, “Captain Jiang, is it time to lock the door now?”

Jiang Chengyan’s face heated up, and said, “It’s okay to lock the door, but don’t even think about that kind of thing.”

“Captain Jiang, you are so overbearing that you won’t even think about it.”

Jiang Chengyan got up and went to lock the door. The corners of his mouth couldn’t help but rise and said, “That’s how overbearing is.”

Ling Hua’an got out of bed, stood beside the bed, and said an “ouch.”

Jiang Chengyan looked back, walked over in a hurry, and asked in concern, “What’s the matter? Is it the wound?”

Ling Hua’an hugged Jiang Chengyan and said, “Captain Jiang, I haven’t had a good bath for many days, but the doctor told me that the wound should not get wet. Would Captain Jiang help me scrub my body?”

“The weather is too cold, and your body is weak. What if you catch a cold? Hua’an, just bear with it. When your wound is completely healed, I will help you, okay?”

Ling Hua’an sighed silently in his heart, without talking anymore he directly kissed this uncomprehending man.

“Captain Jiang, we can turn up the temperature of the air conditioner.”

“No! U…”

“Captain Jiang, my wound has already scabbed over.”

“No…”

“Captain Jiang, if you don’t agree, I’ll take you now.”

Jiang Chengyan leaned against Ling Hua’an and panted lightly. His head was blank, and his body was softened. Ling Hua’an was really taking action, so he quickly compromised and said, “Okay, but it’s just taking a shower, and I can’t do anything else.

“Don’t worry, Captain Jiang. Just take a shower, absolutely nothing else.” Ling Hua’an’s eyes flashed a victory smile.

Jiang Chengyan pushed Ling Hua’an and said, “then let go of me, I’ll go turn up the temperature of the air conditioner and get you a change of clothes.”

“Okay.”

Jiang Chengyan found the air conditioning remote control, turned the temperature, opened the cabinet again, and took out clean clothes. When he turned around, he saw that Ling Hua’an had taken off his shirt, his chest was bandaged, and the wound was stained with yellowish blood. Even though it was a small piece the size of a fingernail, Jiang Chengyan still felt distressed.

“Hua’an, why is your wound bleeding again? Is it inflamed?”

Ling Hua’an wanted to touch the location of the wound, but Jiang Chengyan clutched his wrist and said, “Don’t touch it. Your hands are dirty.”

Ling Hua’an smiled, “Captain Jiang, you are too nervous. There are several layers of gauze. No matter how dirty my hands are, there should be no problem.”

Jiang Chengyan’s face stiffened, and he said, “I don’t care anyway. I won’t let you touch it, so don’t touch it.”

“When Captain Jiang said so, this wound can’t be touched. In case of an infection, I will stay in the hospital for a few more days. Then I will not be able to do it for a few more days. Put up with this. I guess when this injury heals, I will go crazy.”

“You’re really …… shameless.” Jiang Chengyan unsurprisingly blushed again.

“Captain Jiang,  you see, I am still bleeding from this wound. It’s really inconvenient for me. Why don’t you help me take off my pants?” The smile under Ling Hua’an’s eyes grew thicker.

Jiang Chengyan’s eyes moved down subconsciously. The prominent abdominal muscles on his flat lower abdomen were full of power and sexiness. He couldn’t help swallowing his saliva.

After waiting for a long time, Jiang Chengyan didn’t respond. Ling Hua’an asked strangely, “Captain Jiang, what’s wrong?”

“No, it’s nothing.” Jiang Chengyan withdrew his gaze, his face burning, and stammered, “That, let’s just go to the bathroom first.” 

“Sure, then I’ll trouble Captain Jiang.”

Jiang Chengyan helped Ling Hua’an into the bathroom. When he looked at Ling Hua’an’s naked upper body, he turned his eyes away with a guilty conscience and said, “I’ll put the water on first. You wait a moment.”

“There’s no rush. Captain Jiang, take your time.”

Jiang Chengyan opened the shower, followed by the water clattering down. He reached out to try the temperature of the water. Still, his eyes unconsciously glanced at the side of Ling Hua’an.

The water clattered for a long time, but Jiang Chengyan didn’t see any movement. He only felt that a scorching gaze was focused on him. Ling Hua’an’s eyes flashed with a smile, and he pretended to be ignorant and asked, “Captain Jiang, is the water… still hot?”

Jiang Chengyan returned to his senses, embarrassed that he couldn’t find a crack in the ground and squeeze himself in.

Ling Hua’an moved his eyes down, looked at his pants, and said, “Captain Jiang, I will trouble you.”

“Hm hm.”

“Captain Jiang, the lower abdomen should be clean.”

“Hm hm.”

“Captain Jiang, are you hot? You’re sweating. Let’s wash together.”

“No… okay, okay.”

“I’ll help you.”

“Hua’an, don’t…”

“Captain Jiang, be honest, especially since you are a police officer.”

“O…”
