Chapter 39: The Rhythm of Three Hundred Taels of Silver

  Bei Nan hesitated for a moment before answering the phone.

  "Brother." A faintly bewildered voice filled with ignorance.

  "Anan, have you been ill recently? The principal of Fengyang University called me and said that you haven't attended classes for several days, and the exams are coming up soon, is everything okay?" A calm yet concerned voice came from the other end.

  Yuan Yiqin leaned in beside him, clearly hearing Bai Hanyan's voice, ignoring the white eyes that Bai Nanfeng shot over, openly eavesdropping.

  "It's just a minor sprain, I'll rest for a few days, it's not a big deal, I won't fall behind on the exam." Bei Nan said with a slightly sarcastic smile.

  How could he not know that Bei Huan Yan was so kind and cared about her so much?

  It's been several days since she last attended class, and even if she didn't attend classes or exams for the entire semester, they wouldn't have bothered. Now, however, they're proactively calling to inquire, which undoubtedly means they have an ulterior motive.

  "Did you fall while walking? Is it serious?" Bei Huan Yan asked anxiously.

  "It's almost fine now." Bei Nan said softly, paused for a moment, and then asked with a flash in his eyes: "Brother, have you offended anyone in business recently?"

  "Why say that?"

  "Because someone drove into me a few days ago, I twisted my foot when I dodged. I wonder if you guys offended someone in business and they took it out on me." She sounded slightly innocent and wronged.

  The other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds before Bei Hongyan asked tentatively, "Did you see what the driver looked like?"

  "Wearing a hat didn't see."

  "Uh, I see. I'll go investigate. You be careful when you go out later and take good care of yourself. If anything happens, contact me." After hearing Benan's response, Beihan couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

  "Good."

  After hanging up the phone, Bei Nan turned her head and gave a playful look at Yuan Yiqin, raising an eyebrow in slight annoyance.

  "The person who hit you with a car is Bei Hongyan." Yuan Yiqin said, it was a declarative sentence, not an interrogative one.

  "It seems you're still quite clever." Bei Nan praised.

  "Thanks for the compliment, Bei's acting skills are really admirable, teach me sometime when you're free." He said with a smirk.

  It's okay, listening to their conversation wasn't a problem, but Benan's expression didn't escape his eyes, and Ben Huan calling to ask was undoubtedly the rhythm of "this place has no silver three hundred taels".

  "Captain Yuan, from now on, I'll have to trouble you to take good care of me."

  "Alright, you're my 'girlfriend', I should protect you." After saying this, Yuan Yiqin's playful expression disappeared and he said seriously: "Bei Huan called to ask about it, knowing that you didn't see the driver, and not knowing if that person was him. The next step won't be taken so quickly."

  "It's not good to say, now that I've sprained my foot, even with some skill it's inconvenient. You still have to consider the things on the headquarters' side, if they make a move while you're not around, it's completely trivial." Bei Nan said with a serious face.

  Yuan Yi Qin couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly, thinking for a moment before saying: "Bei Hanyan did indeed lay hands on you, but if he really wanted to take drastic measures against you, your injury wouldn't be just a sprained ankle. The fact that he called you today was also because he's nervous and afraid you'll discover it was him who hit you with the car."

  Bei Nan thought for a moment and felt that it was reasonable. Suddenly, he thought of something and asked with some doubt: "Could it be... Bei Huan's actions were not known to Bei Yanhua, but rather his own idea?"

  Yuan Yiqin slightly shrugged and didn't directly respond to her words.

  This is very likely.

  "How much is my life worth?" Benan suddenly asked curiously.

  Yuan Yiqin smiled secretly and pointed to the corner of the wall, saying: "There is a scale there. The more 'meat' you have on your body, the more your life will be worth."

  Bei Nan glared at him unpleasantly: "Yuan Yi Qin, are you looking for death?"

  "I haven't saved you yet, how can I bear to let you die?"

  "Damn you, you freak in a hoodlum's skin!"

  "What's with wearing a hooligan skin and being perverted? Can't you say something normal for once?"

  ……

  Two people started bickering and quarreling, when a phone call from Officer Liu stopped them.

  Yuan Yiqin answered the phone, and Officer Liu said something to him that made his face change color. He responded with a sound, hung up the phone, and told Bei Nan: "There's a new case, I'll go back to headquarters for a while. You stay home alone and be good. If anything happens, call me."

  At this moment, he was completely different from the silly smile when he was playing with Bei Nan earlier. He had a serious face and immediately became the cold and stern Captain Yuan again as soon as a new case came up.

  "Go ahead," said Benan with a nod.

  After Yuan Yiqin left, the originally lively living room became quiet, with only a dull and tasteless soap opera playing on TV.

  Several "pa" sounds came from outside the floor-to-ceiling windows of the balcony.

  Benan turned her head to look, it was that black cat. At this moment, it was gently tapping the glass with its paws. She was about to get up and go over when the black shadow flashed by, and the black cat outside the floor-to-ceiling window had already entered the living room in the blink of an eye.

  Bei Nan was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled lightly, almost forgetting that this was a cat demon and not an ordinary wild cat.

  The black cat walked up to Bayan with a blooming rose in its mouth, jumped onto the sofa, placed the rose on her thigh, and then crouched beside her, calling out happily.

  "Is it for me?" Benan was slightly surprised and delighted, picked up the rose flower and smelled it, the fragrance was refreshing, and the red petals still had sparkling dew drops on them, it should have been freshly picked.

  The black cat nodded in response to Beinan's question.

  The bright red and tender rose, Benan couldn't help but think of the memories he had seen before, in that garden full of roses, where this kind of blood-red rose was planted.

  "There shouldn't be a place around here or in Qingfeng City where red roses are grown." Bei Nan muttered to herself, she was from the agricultural department and knew a bit about some of the plants in Qingfeng City.

  But come to think of it, it's a cat demon, going far away to pick and choose is just a matter of effort, not a difficult thing.

  Look at this black cat, not only does it have no malice towards itself, but it has even saved itself. Bei Nan didn't reject it, anyway now she's alone, having it accompany her is also good.

  A cat and a person sit on the sofa watching TV and eating snacks.

  At noon, Yuan Yiqin ordered takeout for Bei Nan and spared her the trouble of cooking in the kitchen.

  In the afternoon, I ate and drank enough, watched TV and fell asleep.

  It's probably a tricky case, so Yuan Yiqin called to say she'd be late getting home and had dinner delivered.

  It was almost eleven o'clock, and Bei Nan had already lain down on the 'bed', but Yuan Yi Qin still hadn't returned, and she felt inexplicably worried and uneasy in her heart.

  "Little black cat." Benan turned her head to look at the black cat that was sitting quietly on the bedside cabinet, it had followed her into the house and very sensibly hadn't jumped directly onto the bed but instead onto the bedside cabinet.

  "Meow~" It happily cried out, as if responding to Bei Nan.

  "Are you homeless?" She felt a little sympathy for it as she thought about how it came to her windowsill every night.

  The black cat nodded, its golden eyes looking at her with a pitiful expression, its posture undoubtedly wanting her to take it in. Billionaire's Pampered Ghost Wife 39 This place has no silver three hundred taels rhythm address html/84/84396/
