Chapter 33
“Alright, since there’s nothing much tomorrow, I’ll give you a day off for your blind date,” said Old Mai on the spot. He followed up by waving his hand and promptly issued a leave note for him.
He didn’t even give Su Xuan a chance to reconsider.
Su Xuan: …
For some reason, Chief, I feel like you’re forcing me into something!
Though he had this complaint in his mind, Su Xuan didn’t voice it. After all, Old Mai was his immediate boss; it wouldn’t be appropriate to contradict him directly.
However, he didn’t expect that the blind date will be scheduled come so quickly after he agreed it. Did Old Mai already make an agreement with someone beforehand?
Otherwise, why would he approve his leave without even confirming the date and time with the other party?
Su Xuan thought about it and felt that he had been tricked.
However, he soon brushed off these thoughts. Whether he was being led into a trap or not, the leave had already been granted. Even if he truly had to go on a blind date, he supposed it wouldn’t hurt much.
He couldn’t just waste a whole day, after all.
With the rest of the time, he could arrange his own affairs.
Considering this, Su Xuan didn’t hesitate any longer. Seeing his expression, Old Mai became even more delighted.
“Young man, make a good impression tomorrow,” Old Mai said as he handed over the leave note to Su Xuan, patting his shoulder.
Su Xuan managed an awkward smile and touched his nose. “I’ll do my best.”
In reality, whether it was the original host or Su Xuan, neither had much experience with romance. Despite the years the original host had spent with Qin Shuyi, how they got together initially was long forgotten.
But thinking about it, it was useless even if he was really conflicted. He had already agreed, so he could not possibly stand her up!
Su Xuan really did not intend to stand her up.
The next day, he even arrived at the coffee shop for the blind date earlier than expected. He’d heard that being late for a blind date could lead the woman to think poorly of him.
Thinking about it, it made sense. If the first impression on the first day of the blind date was already delayed, that initial impression might deteriorate.
Indeed, when he got there, the woman hadn’t arrived yet.
Su Xuan wasn’t bothered by it. After all, women needed to make arrangements for such an important event as well. A bit of tardiness was understandable.
At times, women held a certain privilege.
At least, that’s how he saw it.
Su Xuan ordered a cup of coffee and sat in the corner of the coffee shop, propping his chin on his hand as he gazed at the scene outside the window.
Unbeknownst to him, he had become a subject of interest for others as well.
Not far away, two girls were watching Su Xuan at the window, exchanging whispers and glances.
Both agreed he was handsome.
However, when it came to actually asking for his phone number, the two girls hesitated and didn’t dare to approach him.
They could only converse back and forth in their seats, observing Su Xuan with dreamy eyes…
And at that moment, just as the two girls were sneakily observing Su Xuan, he suddenly turned his gaze towards them.
Startled, they exchanged surprised glances.
“Why… why is he suddenly looking at us?”
“He couldn’t have noticed us spying on him, could he?”
One of the girls asked her friend in a hushed voice, only to have her idea promptly rejected. “Impossible, we’re quite far from him here…”
..
Actually, the reason why Su Xuan suddenly turned his head was very simple.
He saw red Sin Points!
At first, it was just a casual glance. Su Xuan was tired of looking at the passersby walking outside the window, so he wanted to take a walk around the shop to change his gaze.
However, it was fine if he didn’t look around, but he was shocked when he saw it.
In the corner of this shop, there was a red Sin Point!
Moreover, this sin value was beyond his imagination!
He actually had more than 200 points of guilt!
Hiss!
Su Xuan sucked in a sharp breath of cold air. His gaze swept across the criminal with the Sin Points. Then, he followed the criminal’s gaze and his gaze landed on the two girls at the table next to the criminal.
As a police officer, he quickly suspected that the criminal was looking at the two girls strangely.
Just as Su Xuan was about to step forward, the two girls finally made up their minds when they realized that Su Xuan’s gaze had been on them. They stood up and walked toward him at the same time.
“That…Hello, little brother.”
One of the short-haired girls said. She had a pretty face. When she walked over, she held a phone in her hand and looked a little shy.” Can I exchange my phone number with you?””
“Or can we add each other as friends?”
Su Xuan was speechless.
He subconsciously thought of the girl by the beach who also wanted to add him as a friend. He could not help but rub his nose awkwardly.
Recently, there seemed to be a lot of people adding him as a friend?
Thinking of the way the criminal looked at the two girls just now, Su Xuan thought for a moment and did not refuse. He directly scanned the girl’s QR code.
The two girls were extremely excited. After adding each other as friends, they quickly returned to their seats.
Su Xuan hurriedly looked in the direction of the criminal. As expected, the criminal’s gaze as he looked at the two girls instantly became fierce.
It was as if they had done something disgraceful.
However, in reality, these two girls had only asked Su Xuan for a friend.
This criminal made it seem as if these two girls had let him down. Su Xuan had a little guess in his heart, but he did not do anything else.
Instead, he took out his phone and sent a message to the girl who dared to ask for his phone number.
[Do you know the guy sitting in front of you? Don’t turn your head, just use the rear camera to take a look.]
After seeing his message, the two girls were a little dumbfounded.
But they still did as he said.
[I don’t know him.]
[I saw that he kept staring at you, so I thought it was a little strange, so I came to ask.]
Su Xuan replied. Then, he was worried that the two girls would leave, so he sent another message,[I see that there’s cake on your table. What flavor is it? Can you recommend it to me?]
He pulled the two of them to chat and sent a message to Zhou Qiang and the others at the same time, asking them to change into plain clothes and come over now.
The only thing left to do was to wait.
Su Xuan knew that with his current weak body, it was impossible for him to deal with a guy who was very likely a murderer.
Not to mention that there were so many people here.
If they were not careful, it might cause panic. If the criminal was ruthless and directly took the people present as hostages, it would be even worse.
Due to the tight schedule, Su Xuan could not call his colleagues directly. He could only send the matter to Zhou Qiang and the others via text messages.
Lastly, Old Mai.
He believed that Old Mai would make the decision he wanted based on his intuition.
