Upon hearing Bai Tao speak of Xiao Tian’s special identity, Gong Xingteng merely chuckled mockingly, not taking Bai Tao’s words seriously at all.

Even if Xiao Tian’s identity is special, can it compare with the background identity of his century-old Huaxia family? He simply scoffed!

Originally, he thought he had to rely on someone to find Xiao Tian for revenge after arriving in Shanghai, but now Xiao Tian appeared right before his eyes. As someone who never lets grudges go, how could he let this go?

Shanghai, Heaven Earth Human Hotel.

Though Heaven Earth Human Hotel isn’t considered the best in Shanghai City, it’s economical and spacious. It has become the first choice for many company gatherings.

After work in the evening, Xiao Tian directly booked several rooms at Heaven Earth Human Hotel, inviting his colleagues from the police station for dinner.

At the dining table, because Xiao Tian safely returned to the bureau, Yang He was in high spirits, drinking quite a lot of white liquor, his face glowing red, and repeatedly praising Xiao Tian’s actions.

A group of men who had taken off their police uniforms sang loudly, red-faced, harmonious and joyful. Among them, Wang Meng and a few other burly men drank too much and started telling jokes, causing Yu Ningxue beside Xiao Tian to blush furiously.

"Wang Meng, look at you being so disgraceful, there are female comrades at the table! Show some restraint!" a nearby officer laughed.

"Hehehe," Wang Meng, with a flushed face, laughed vaguely, saying, "Xiao Tian is back, I’m just happy!"

Mentioning Yu Ningxue, the eyes around immediately became ambiguous, with some already starting to joke.

"I think from now on we’d better call her sister-in-law!"

"That’s right, sister-in-law!"

Some men who secretly admired Yu Ningxue for many years were immensely envious, saying, "You have plucked a flower from our Shanghai police force, Ningxue is like a sister to us, if you ever treat her poorly, we will fight you!"

"Oh dear!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Ningxue’s face flushed red, she lowered her head shyly, but her heart was full of joy, secretly glancing at Xiao Tian to see his reaction.

At this moment, Wang Meng suddenly took two wine glasses and walked up to Xiao Tian, unsteady due to his intoxication, and said in a shaky tone, "Come on, drink this wedding cup, and may you be together forever!"

Since Xiao Tian went missing, Yu Ningxue seemed to lose her soul, slimming down considerably.

Seeing the once cold and beautiful police flower become like this, many people felt heartache and urgency. Unable to bear seeing Yu Ningxue like this, they decided that upon Xiao Tian’s return they must help this pair unite.

"Indeed!" Taking advantage of the liquor, many people started to urge them on. It seemed that if they didn’t drink this wedding cup, they wouldn’t let the two leave.

Seeing the situation, Xiao Tian helplessly turned his head and looked at Yu Ningxue.

It’s known that the wedding cup is drunk at weddings, carrying special significance. No one knew if the young lady was willing.

"I think... let’s skip the wedding cup, how about I punish myself with three glasses instead?" Xiao Tian pleaded. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"No way!" Several officers directly shook their heads, firmly refusing, clearly not planning to let Xiao Tian off.

At this moment, Yu Ningxue suddenly gently tugged at Xiao Tian’s sleeve with a blush on her face and whispered.

"Everyone is happy to reunite today, let’s not dampen their spirits...."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Tian nodded, ultimately taking the wine glass in defeat. Yu Ningxue raised her fair jade-like hand, bringing the glass to Xiao Tian’s lips, and the two, pressured, drank the wedding cup.

After drinking, the scene suddenly became lively. And Yu Ningxue’s face grew even redder....

By the time the group finished their meal, it was already ten at night. Yang He was exaggeratingly asleep, while others loudly claimed they weren’t drunk and wanted another round. The scene was hilarious.

Eventually, a few sober colleagues from the station were tasked with sending the drunken men home. Only after the last person was sent off did Xiao Tian and Yu Ningxue leave peacefully.

A gentle night breeze blew across the roads, dispelling the heat brought by the white liquor, making Xiao Tian feel very comfortable.

"Oh dear..."

As they walked, Yu Ningxue suddenly cried out in pain, turning her head. She had twisted her ankle and was holding onto a streetlight unable to move.

"How could you be so careless?" Xiao Tian approached Yu Ningxue, and without hesitation, directly carried her.

Yu Ningxue’s delicate body was very light, a fragrant body scent and the soft touch on his back accompanying it.

All along the way, the two didn’t speak much, Yu Ningxue quietly lying on Xiao Tian’s back, fully enjoying the silence. Eventually, they arrived at the entrance of Yu Ningxue’s residential community.

Just as Xiao Tian crouched down to put Yu Ningxue down, she unexpectedly held on more tightly and finally spoke, "Don’t go."

Xiao Tian thought Yu Ningxue’s foot was in pain, making her unable to walk. Nodding, he carried Yu Ningxue into the community. Because he had been there before, he was familiar with the location of Yu Ningxue’s home. A few minutes later, Xiao Tian arrived downstairs at Yu Ningxue’s apartment.

"It hurts." At this moment, Yu Ningxue spoke again.

Xiao Tian thought for a moment, guessing Yu Ningxue’s foot might be dislocated. If left untreated, her foot injury could worsen.

"Is it so severe? Let me come up and give it a rub, yes?"

"Mm..." Yu Ningxue’s voice was barely audible, like a mosquito.

Xiao Tian took the key from Yu Ningxue, opened the door.

The decor of Yu Ningxue’s house was overwhelmingly pink, from the furniture to the wallpaper, all in shades of pink.

Because she lived alone, there weren’t many items in the house. Only a sandbag in the living room stood out particularly.

Xiao Tian carried Yu Ningxue into her bedroom, which was neatly clean. A faint floral scent filled the air, as Yu Ningxue loved growing flowers. This was one of her few hobbies, and the windowsill was filled with various flowers she had planted.

Yet, due to Xiao Tian’s earlier disappearance, she hadn’t watered them in a long time, some flowers were wilting.

Xiao Tian gently placed Yu Ningxue on the bed, took off her shoes, revealing her white jade-like feet. Those small feet were incredibly smooth, with an elegant curve.

"It might hurt a bit, bear with it," Xiao Tian warned as he grabbed Yu Ningxue’s small foot, pressing the dislocated joint, and forcefully twisted it upwards.

Snap.

At that moment, a tear unexpectedly fell in front of Xiao Tian. Shocked, he stood up urgently, looking at Yu Ningxue with concern, "What happened? Did I hurt you?"

Snap, snap.

A drop of tears fell from Yu Ningxue’s beautiful eyes, one by one. She looked at the panicked and clumsy Xiao Tian in front of her, smiled while shaking her head, looking like a pear blossom with rain.

"Xiao Tian... I really love you."
