Chapter 176 More than friends, less than lovers
When they came out of the Public Security Building, the sky gradually darkened. Along the way, Su He drove slowly through the bustling streets, all the way south, and came to a hidden beach!
When the car stopped on the coast and the sound of waves surging came to his ears, Nangong Jin came back to his senses and looked out the window with some surprise!
"Where is this? Aren't we going home?"
Su He just smiled, opened the car door and got out, then walked to Nangong Jin, opened the door, and carefully led her out!
"This is also my secret base. I won't tell anyone about it!"
Su He held Nangong Jin's hand like this and walked on the soft beach. The sea breeze blew Nangong Jin's hair wantonly, mixed with a salty taste, but it made people feel a lot more refreshed!
"Take off your shoes and walk around, it will feel different!"
Su He was seen half-kneeling on the beach, carefully taking off her high heels and holding them in her hands!
"Thank you!"
Nangong Jin was startled by his actions, but the soft and light touch on her feet did make her feel a lot better!
The two of them came to a reef one after the other, "Okay, let's sit here for a while!"
At this time, the setting sun just fell on the sea level, and the afterglow dyed the entire sea surface orange-red, which was very beautiful!
"Wow, brother, look, the sunset is so big, so beautiful!"
But Su He suddenly looked at the sea level and started to tell his own story: "I remember when I first became a lawyer, I was full of ambition and thought I was the embodiment of justice. I was full of passion to eliminate the injustice in the world! At that time, Sam was very worried about me and said that I was unrealistic all day long. I didn't believe him, and it lasted for two or three years..."
His face was illuminated by the orange-red light of the setting sun. Nangong Jin tilted his head and stared at his profile in a daze. His expression has been deeply imprinted in Nangong Jin's mind ever since!
It seems like joy and sorrow, like laughter and crying, it’s hard to describe!
"Later, I finally accepted the fact that this world is not black and white, there is also gray!"
He suddenly raised his head and sighed: "I am a little glad, Junior Sister, that you did not really embark on the path of becoming a lawyer! Those who wander in the gray area, they take advantage of loopholes in the law and act blatantly and recklessly, which is more terrifying and disgusting than those who are truly evil!"
He suddenly turned his head and stared at Nangong Jin seriously, asking word by word: "Even so, do you still want to investigate? Even if your life is in danger, you will not regret it?"
Nangong Jin looked at the worry in his eyes, and her eyes suddenly became moist. She leaned her head gently on Su He's shoulder and looked at the rolling waves on the sea!
To her, Su He is more than a friend but less than a lover. It can be said that, apart from the Zhou family, Su He is the one who spends the most time with her! He can provide her with emotional value, and he understands what she wants, so...
"I don't regret it, so, Brother, from now on, you don't have to help me anymore. I will do the rest by myself!"
Her words were blown away by the sea breeze, but they clearly entered Su He's ears. Su He just smiled nonchalantly: "It's too late. I always keep my word. How could I leave you alone! Besides..."
"Brother, do you believe that I will fire you?"
“Nangong Jin, I have a thousand ways to prevent you from firing me!”
Nangong Jin was amused by his words, but Su He pinched her pretty face and pretended to be angry and warned: "Listen to what I have to say first!"
Seeing that Nangong Jin was honest, he continued: "We are going to the bureau to check the files this time. I believe the person behind this will get the news soon, which is very disadvantageous to us, so we must find the key evidence as soon as possible!"
Her words made Nangong Jin's heart skip a beat, and he panicked, "According to He Zhiyuan's information, he said that before the accident, he saw the driver sneaking around in the garage, and he also heard him say something like "It's done, let his family go"!"
Nangong Jin had been listening to his analysis quietly. She asked tentatively, "So our most important thing is to find the driver's family?"
"Junior sister, you are so smart! So, let's go, I will take you to eat first! We don't have much time!"
Su He stood up first, and then pulled Nangong Jin up, and the two walked side by side, "Brother, please don't worry about this matter anymore, okay? I still have Eleven, and..."
Suddenly Su He was caught off guard and pulled her into his arms, "You are my only junior sister, I can't bear to let you go, and you are really nagging, which is a taboo for lawyers, you have to change!"
But the upturned corners of his mouth revealed his mood at the moment!
But when Su He drove to pick up Nangong Jin early the next morning, she was shocked to see that his eyes were bloodshot and he looked very tired!
"Oh my god, Brother, what happened to you? Didn't you sleep?"
Su He sat in the car and waved at her tiredly, "Hurry up and get in the car, we are leaving!"
Although she didn't know what he was going to do, Nangong Jin got into the passenger seat without saying anything. But she couldn't help but ask again: "Senior Brother..."
"Please take a look at this information later. Don't worry about the company's affairs. I have arranged them in advance." He raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, trying to relieve his fatigue!
"I found all the information about the driver's family overnight, so we are going to Jiangcheng to find them now! Sit tight..."
Nangong Jin held a thick stack of information in his hand, and his eyes suddenly became red again. It was already nine o'clock in the evening when they separated yesterday. He had to deal with official business and investigate the matter. It is conceivable that he did not sleep all night!
"Let me drive! You take a nap...Su He!"
Su He listened to Nangong Jin's different way of addressing him, and his eyes were full of smiles, "Okay, I'll listen to you!"
Along the way, Su He slept very soundly. Nangong Jin drove very carefully, trying to reduce bumps as much as possible so as not to wake him up!
They drove like this for three hours and finally arrived at their destination. Nangong Jin parked the car downstairs of a residential building. She looked at Su He, then unbuckled her seat belt and got out of the car!
When Su He woke up, he saw that the driver's seat was empty. He immediately opened the car door and ran out in panic!
“Nangong Jin… Damn it, Su He, you slept so soundly, what if something happened to her?”
Just as he anxiously took out his cell phone to make a call, the voice he had been thinking about came from behind him: "Brother, how come you woke up so quickly..."
Su He rushed over and hugged Nangong Jin, saying, "I'm glad you're okay, I'm glad you're okay..."
"Brother, I saw you were asleep, so I went to find out the news myself. The neighbors said that the mother and daughter suddenly moved away 20 years ago, and others said that they bought a house in the city center!"
Su He just hugged her tightly, and after a while, he slowly let go of his hand, "Well, Junior Sister is very powerful! Then let's go find them!"
