Chapter 226 Not Simple
She then turned to Qu Ying and said, "Team Leader Qu, do you really think it's appropriate to invite two girls like us to your house?"
Qu Ying pondered for a moment, then quickly said, "I don't think there's anything wrong with it. After all, think about it, I'm a team leader, aren't I?"
"So what if he's just a team leader? Throughout history, how many cases of civil servants committing crimes have there been?"
Upon hearing Bai Mengfei's words, Qu Ying's body trembled violently.
So he stopped talking and just drove silently.
Bai Mengfei's panic intensified!
Because he's so silent, she's worried that if he drives straight to his house, he might do whatever he wants to them, and she doesn't want to be in that situation!
So she decisively reached out and patted Qu Ying on the shoulder.
Qu Ying was taken aback by her audacity and took a deep breath.
He glanced at Bai Mengfei discreetly and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I still want to eat at a restaurant outside. I'll pay for it if necessary. I saw a restaurant behind us that looked pretty good. Shall we go there?"
Qu Ying's face instantly turned gloomy and ugly. But he couldn't find a reason to refuse Bai Mengfei, so he chose to remain silent once again.
In this critical moment, Bai Mengfei had no choice but to ask, "Is it okay?"
Qu Ying then slowed down, forced a slightly awkward smile, and slowly turned the steering wheel to turn the car around.
After the three arrived at the "Big Joy Restaurant" in the back, Qu Ying casually parked the car on the side.
However, he didn't get out of the car immediately because he was extremely reluctant to eat there! Bai Mengfei had completely disrupted his plans, making him feel terrible.
He sat in the car for a good four or five seconds before opening the door and getting out.
After getting off the bus, he quickly walked towards the restaurant, intending to ask if they still had any food. After all, the restaurant was located in a remote area, and it was already past lunchtime.
Because of the cold weather, most people have already eaten by five or six o'clock.
I didn't expect there to be food here.
He had no choice but to turn back and invite the two of them to get out of the car and have a meal with him.
After the three entered the restaurant, Bai Mengfei was worried that something had been tampered with, so she remained cautious.
As soon as she entered, she observed the restaurant's environment and also paid attention to the waiters.
Feeling that no one here seemed out of the ordinary, she sat down and deliberately squeezed past Qu Ying to sit next to Wang Tian.
Wang Tian didn't understand that Bai Mengfei was sitting like that to protect her. She thought that Bai Mengfei didn't want her to be too close to other men, but she didn't dwell on it and let it go.
After the three of them were seated, Qu Ying began to order food, while Bai Mengfei kept staring at him.
She felt that Qu Ying was clearly up to no good – like a weasel offering New Year's greetings to a chicken!
However, Bai Mengfei only thought about it to herself and did not show it on the surface.
After the dishes were served, Qu Ying, perhaps thinking Wang Tian was naive and easily fooled, deliberately tried to befriend her, attempting to take advantage of her. He kept putting food on Wang Tian's plate, making her feel somewhat embarrassed.
Bai Mengfei sat to the side, quietly eating white rice.
Why? Because she was worried that the vegetables had been poisoned!
If white rice is poisoned, its color will change, and you can detect it by smell.
However, there are other unforeseen circumstances, so it's hard to say!
"Zhang Ting, why are you only eating rice and not vegetables?" Qu Ying asked with ill intentions.
Bai Mengfei smiled slightly and said, "No need, I think just eating is fine. This rice is very soft and tastes good." This was obviously just to appease him, but Bai Mengfei couldn't think of any other way to deal with him.
In terms of physical strength and ability, two girls are indeed no match for a grown man!
Moreover, Qu Ying is a team leader at the police station, so even if he asks the police for help now, it will be of no use.
Will anyone believe her deductions and intuition?
She couldn't produce any solid evidence, so she could only glean the truth from some details!
At this moment, she desperately wished that Xiang Yuntian or Zhao Fei were by her side. But she couldn't understand why, even after so long, there was still no word from Zhao Fei.
Just as she was filled with doubt, Qu Ying smiled slightly and said to her, "You always seem to have something on your mind. What are you thinking about? Can you tell me?"
His words sounded gentle, and his smile was cheerful. He was quite handsome, but Bai Mengfei had no liking for him at all; on the contrary, she felt some disgust.
So Bai Mengfei pretended not to hear and just silently ate her white rice.
Deep down, she didn't really want to eat this meal, so she just picked up the grains one by one and put them in her mouth.
After eating for a while, she put down her bowl and said, "Since the forensic doctor Xiang isn't here, I don't have much of an appetite. I'm not eating anymore."
Qu Ying immediately tried to persuade her, but Wang Tian, this naive girl, actually started to speak up for Qu Ying.
"I said I'm not eating anymore, didn't you hear me?" Bai Mengfei said angrily.
She was deliberately throwing a tantrum, trying to make a big scene so that everyone in the restaurant would see her with Qu Ying.
In this way, if something happens to him, the police can list Qu Ying as one of the suspects during the investigation.
Wang Tian didn't understand her intention and was frightened by her sudden temper.
She sat beside her, blinking furtively, looking as if she was about to cry from fright.
But thinking that she was older than Bai Mengfei, she should comfort her like an older sister would comfort her younger sister, so she asked with concern, "Zhang Ting, are you alright? Why did you suddenly get so angry?"
"I'm sorry, I was just too worried about Forensic Doctor Xiang. You guys eat, I feel a bit stuffy in here, I'd like to go for a walk." After saying that, Bai Mengfei stood up and turned to walk towards the door.
Her outburst drew everyone's attention to her in the restaurant. To them, she seemed rather young and immature.
Of all those present, only Qu Ying, besides herself, noticed something amiss.
This female forensic doctor, who looks to be close to 18 years old, is anything but simple. Her knowledge, understanding, and mental age surpass even my own.
He understood it in his heart.
Bai Mengfei acted so unreasonably in order to attract everyone's attention, making it difficult for him to harm her. Otherwise, if the police launched an investigation, they would definitely suspect him.
