Police officer Chen Shu

Chapter 87 A Fated Person
The following day, at 4 PM, Jiefang Street, Chanyun Shopping Mall.

Although he had been working hard for two days, Chen Shu had recovered after nearly twenty hours of sound sleep at home.

He sat at the dining table, drinking freshly made milk, and looked at Zhu Chaoran's WeChat reply on his phone, feeling somewhat surprised.

After deciding on the restaurant for the dinner last night, he asked Zhu Chaoran to join him and they agreed to leave together this afternoon. Unexpectedly, Zhu Chaoran, who had agreed so readily, suddenly sent a WeChat message this morning saying that he had something to do in the afternoon and would go to the restaurant by himself in the evening, so he wouldn't be joining him.

Chen Shu pondered for a long time but couldn't figure it out. However, since the two would be meeting soon, he didn't pay much attention to it.

The thought of the dinner party that evening filled him with sweetness. At that moment, he forgot his chaotic police work, the brawls, and the noisy arguments; all that remained in his mind were those big, bright eyes.

A pair of captivatingly large eyes.

He kept glancing at the time on his phone, then at the amber bracelet he'd acquired during his graduation trip from police academy, which sat on the table, a sense of anticipation creeping into his heart.

The police cadets studying at the police academy already knew how difficult police work was. They knew that once they officially started working, those long vacations would definitely be gone.

Therefore, most police cadets will plan a long and arduous journey before being assigned to their units upon graduation, as their only wish for long-distance travel for the next twenty years or so.

Chen Shu spent a month on a road trip to XZ Ridge.

Among the many temples he visited, a small, inconspicuous room with windows covered by thin yellow cloth left a deep impression on him.

At that time, a lama with several colorful bracelets in front of him was sitting in a chair, chanting scriptures softly with his eyes closed, oblivious to the tourists passing by him one after another.

Several groups of tourists ahead of Chen Shu passed by the lama in a cursory manner, each doing their own thing without disturbing the others.

As Chen Shu passed by, his attention was focused on the thin yellow cloth covering the closed window, and he was still wondering about it.

However, being naturally sensitive, he glanced meaningfully at the lama's seat as he wiped himself.

The lama, his eyes slightly open, was smiling at Chen Shu!

Chen Shu stopped and looked back at the other person with some curiosity.

The lama looked at him with a smile, and gently brushed the beads in front of him with his right hand, palm facing upwards.

Did you whisper a sentence or a few words?
Chen Shu didn't hear clearly or understand. He only vaguely knew that the other party wanted him to choose a string of beads.

He was young then and didn't know the different types of beads. After looking around a few times, he unceremoniously picked a comfortable yellow bracelet with beads that were about ten millimeters in size.

Chen Shu looked down, picked it up in his hand, weighed it a few times, and was quite satisfied. He smiled and asked about the price.

When I looked up, the lama withdrew his right hand, which was holding the Buddha pendant, closed his eyes, and continued chanting the scriptures to himself.

It was midday, and warm sunlight streamed lazily into the small room through the yellow cloth covering the windows.

Accompanied by the warm voice of the lama chanting softly.

Chen Shu scratched his head, unwilling to break the mood. Helpless, he took out his wallet, pondered for a long time, and finally pulled out three large red papers and placed them on the table.

The lama kept his eyes closed.

As Chen Shu stepped outside the hall, he looked back and saw that the temple, shrouded in incense smoke, was no different from when he arrived.

But at this moment, a few words suddenly came to mind.

Give it to someone who is destined to receive it.

That evening, in a private room at Yizhanfang on Longhui Road.

Two young people sat quietly facing each other, both looking down at their phones.

"Wow!"

The loud sound of the door opening rushed into their ears, and a tall, burly young man with slightly dark skin strode into the private room but then stopped, looking at the two people sitting inside with some surprise.

A few seconds later, his already wide grin finally broke out, and several bursts of laughter filled the small private room.

"Haha! Haha! Chen Shu, you've finally brought your girlfriend out to meet me!" The voice was joyful and natural, resolute and certain.

But the reaction of the two seated people after that sound was quite interesting.

"Cheng Mian!"

Chen Shu wanted to explain, but since he was genuinely interested and wanted to use someone else's words to smooth things over, he slowly lowered his raised arm.

On the other hand, the young woman sitting opposite Chen Shu was Huang Siqian, who had initially organized the gathering. Perhaps Cheng Mian's words were not quite clear, leading to a slight misunderstanding.

At first, she stared intently at Chen Shu, assuming he had a girlfriend. But then she saw him tacitly agree with Cheng Mian's words, smiling at her without saying a word.

Upon further examining her status as the only woman present, Chen Shu understood the situation perfectly.

She blushed instantly and lowered her head again.

Cheng Mian sat down next to Chen Shu and nudged him, saying, "Go sit over there. Next time you two come out together, you can sit facing each other."

Chen Shu was more than willing to sit down, but with his first love still lingering, he hesitated. He subtly lifted his buttocks, but dared not move over.

His hesitation left Huang Sisi in an awkward situation.

An awkward atmosphere quietly filled the room.

"Wow!"

The door to the private room was opened, and another couple stumbled in.

"Fatty?" Chen Shu exclaimed in surprise.

"Sister Xiaomin?" Huang Siqian asked in surprise.

Although the two who entered were pushing and shoving each other, their obvious intimate gestures clearly demonstrated their unusual relationship to Chen Shu and the other two who were sitting there.

Zhu Chaoran slapped away Xiao Min's hand that was still tugging at his sleeve, and said embarrassedly, "Brother Shu, Brother Mian. Hehe."

Xiaomin, on the other hand, calmly tied her long hair back with both hands, which had become loose due to the two of them playing around.

"Humph."

Chen Shu recalled that some time ago, Zhu Chaoran often liked to wear a pair of tight pants that were obviously very disproportionate to his body type after get off work.

He raised his finger, about to question him.

Alone, Cheng Mian downed the tea in front of him in one gulp and slammed the cup down on the table with a bang.

"What's wrong! You two are so busy flirting, aren't you going to eat or not!"

It has an extremely strong vinegar smell!

A sudden inspiration struck Chen Shu. He stood up and cleared away the teacups on the table, then called over a waiter: "Bring me some wine! Seafood and beer, we'll never have to worry about anything again!"

Cheng Mian loves wine and seafood. Yesterday, Chen Shu arranged a dinner at this famous seafood restaurant, mostly to cater to his appetite.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Cheng Mian immediately forgot about being showered with dog food earlier and grinned widely: "Haha, right, right, right. Let's drink, let's drink! Chen Shu, have you ordered yet? Hurry up and bring the food."

Soon, toasts were exchanged and the atmosphere became lively.

As the event was drawing to a close, Chen Shu, emboldened by alcohol, secretly slipped his carefully preserved amber bracelet, which he had kept for many years, into Huang Siqian's small hand.

So warm, so soft, so fragrant
Yes, I'll give it to the person who is destined to be with me.

Police officers are human too; they need to relax and have a few drinks with friends.
