"Why are you crying?"

Gu Wenrui quickly raised his hand to wipe her tears.

Her fingers slid across her fair and smooth cheeks, wiping away the crystal drops of water, but soon new drops of water fell and followed the previous traces.

"Good boy, can't you tell it's a joke?"

Bai Xiaowei shook her head, she couldn't hear it.

Gu Wenrui almost laughed out loud, this is so cute, just cry if you want, and respond with every word.

Seeing her sobbing silently and tears streaming down her face, Gu Wenrui held her on his lap distressedly, rocking her legs like he was coaxing a child, "Good baby, don't cry."

Feeling the man's careful care, Bai Xiaowei lay in his arms and cried even harder.

Only at this moment did she realize that it was not that she couldn't cry in the past ten years, but that no one would open their arms to her like Gu Wenrui did, allowing her tears and tolerating her pretentiousness.

"...you have...a partner to marry..."

"......You are looking for......me..."

"...What...why...?"

"...provoke...me..."

"...Why...to me..."

"......good......"

She cried so hard that she managed to utter a few halting words amid her sobs, which made Gu Wenrui feel both distressed and want to laugh.

He naturally understood what she wanted to say. He held her tightly in one hand and took a tissue with the other hand to wipe her tears.

"You ask why?" He sighed helplessly, "Is it because I haven't done enough, or is it really so hard to understand?"

His lips touched her small earlobe, as if he was mumbling to himself, but also as if he was tender and gentle: "Aren't you the best at finding the truth from clues?"

"Don't you always say that people's subjective psychology is often reflected in their objective behavior?"

"Didn't you minor in criminal psychology? You can infer a person's true thoughts through subtle changes in facial expressions?"

"Let's not talk about the distant past. Analyze for me, under what circumstances would a man use his chest to block bullets? And then, let a heartless woman lie in his arms and cry and ask him if he likes another woman?"

"Prosecutor Bai, could you please help me solve this puzzle?"

"Ok?"

Gu Wenrui's voice was gentle and low, like the breeze blowing across your cheek on a summer day, intoxicating and refreshing. Every word penetrated into his ears and went deep into his heart.

Clearly, those were questions, clearly he was scolding her for being heartless, but he had to use such an affectionate and lingering voice, leaving her defenseless and accepting it all, letting it enter her ears, her mind, and her heart.

As the man murmured one sentence after another, Bai Xiaowei's cheeks slowly began to feel warm. The tears that had been rolling down her eyes seemed to be burned by the heat and suddenly dried up.

The living water has lost its source, and only two drops are left hanging on the cheeks, yet to fall, and cannot.

Bai Xiaowei then realized that Gu Wenrui was deliberately teasing her.

What kind of match, what kind of marriage partner is favored by parents, what kind of pretty and well-born, suitable to be married home as a daughter-in-law...all of them are just to tease her.

It was a pity that she didn't hear anything at all. She believed everything he said and was teased by him like a little fool, crying uncontrollably.

Even if she had just followed Gu Wenrui's words and wished him and Xue Yunyun a son soon and a long life together, it would have been better than crying like a dog in his arms.

Bai Xiaowei's mind gradually regained its rationality, but was suddenly overwhelmed by deep shame. She wished she could find a hole to crawl into.

I buried my head in his arms, unable to lift it up.

"Hmm? I'm talking to you. Where are you going?"

Her chin was pinched and lifted up again, and it met the man's dark eyes. The doting in those eyes remained unchanged, but he secretly hid the disappointment of being questioned by his lover and didn't let her see it.

Bai Xiaowei held it in for a long time before finally saying, "Haven't you ever heard of a doctor who doesn't treat himself?"

The voice was a little hoarse and nasal from crying, and it sounded like she was acting coquettish.

Gu Wenrui raised his thin lips: "Oh?"

Thinking about her own gaffe just now, Bai Xiaowei was furious that three-quarters of it was due to her preconceived ideas, and seven-quarters was due to the deliberate guidance of this man.

It's something that can be explained in just a few words. All you need to say is "The person I like is you, and Xue Yunyun and I have nothing to do with each other."

But this hateful man just wouldn't say anything.

Not only did he not say anything, he also praised Xue Yunyun in front of her.

In addition, she saw Xue Yunyun talking to him with her own eyes...

Bai Xiaowei felt a little guilty. Could this be just her subjective speculation?

"Then..." She bit her lip, puffed out her chest, and put on a posture of questioning, "Before I came, what did you talk about with her? She was so happy, and she said a lot of nice things to you, right?"

His eyes lingered on a certain point that stood tall for a few seconds, and the smile on Gu Wenrui's lips gradually became playful: "So, you came back early?"

Bai Xiaowei tried to keep her temper: "... Humph, what does it have to do with how soon I come back? Tell me the truth, what sweet words did you say? You made the little girl so happy that she even made an appointment to see you tomorrow, humph."

Originally she just wanted to pretend to save face, but in the end, she ended up feeling uncomfortable. When she thought about how she had never heard those sweet words, her heart felt sour and bitter, and she was not happy.

Seeing Bai Xiaowei's jealous look for the first time, Gu Wenrui found it novel and interesting, and couldn't get enough of it.

Especially her eyes, which had just been washed by tears, were unusually clear and bright, and the light in her eyes was bright and dazzling.

It seems that if you just take one look at her, her spirit and soul will be sucked away.

"I'll kill you with jealousy."

Gu Wenrui sneered and couldn't help but kiss her deeply on her red lips.

After the kiss ended and they slightly pulled away, he said, "That woman Xue Yunyun is sick."

Bai Xiaowei opened her mouth in surprise, but then she quickly closed it, uttering three words before thinking of the noble girl who looked like a white swan she had just met: "Impossible."

"Really, don't lie to you."

Gu Wenrui pointed to his temple and said, "Here, I'm seriously ill."

Bai Xiaowei thought carefully and realized that the Xue Yunyun she had just met, whether in his demeanor, temperament, or conversation, did not seem like that of a mentally ill patient.

"Tell me...in detail, how did she become ill? Have you seen her medical records?"

Bai Xiaowei felt that Gu Wenrui must be trying to interrupt and fool her, so she would be foolish if she believed him.

Gu Wenrui leaned back on the sofa, his fingers reaching for the cigarette on the table. Just as he took it, he remembered that this little woman couldn't smell the smell of cigarettes, so he turned his long fingers and the cigarette box began to rotate flexibly on his fingertips.

Bai Xiaowei reached out and grabbed the cigarette box dancing on the man's fingertips, frowned and asked seriously: "Why are there cigarettes in the ward? You are recovering from your injuries now, how can you smoke?"

"Who said I smoked? Did you see it?"

Gu Wenrui asked back, imitating her example.

Bai Xiaowei choked when she saw him trying to smoke but failed.

I got close to his chest and sniffed all over him, but there was no smell of cigarettes... I grabbed his hand and sniffed each of his fingers, just not wanting to believe it and was determined to find evidence that he was smoking.

Looking at the persistent little woman who was easily diverted by him, Gu Wenrui was helpless. She was so smart and intelligent when handling cases, and she conquered everyone with logic. She was never at a disadvantage in the court, but when facing him, she always looked... uh... stupid, cute, weak and easy to bully.

Tsk, this contrast...is so terrible!
