Jing Tongâs phone rang again when she was feeling vexed.
She grabbed her phone and realized it was her father that was calling.
She didnât want to pick it up, but she didnât dare to ignore it.
She hesitated for a bit and answered the call.
âDad.â
âWhen do you plan to go home, Tongtong?â Jing Zhiyuan had always been strict with his daughter, but his tone was gentle today.
âIn a few more days... I donât have any classes lately.â
âDidnât you say you want to think of an idea to make Ji Shiting to marry you?â Jing Zhiyuan smiled. âHow is it now?â
âYouâre making fun of me, Dad!â Jing Tong was furious. âHow dare you say that? Your opinion is unreliable. You recommended Ji Shiting to me, but heâs already fallen in love.â
âIf you really like him, I will break them up.â
âDonât!â Jing Tong blushed. âYouâre making it sound like no one wants me. I donât believe I canât find someone who genuinely adores me!â
âYouâve been looking for someone for so many years...â
âDad!â Jing Tong was about to cry.
âIâm telling the truth. Ji Shiting is good enough for my daughter in all aspects,â Jing Zhiyuan smiled and said. âSince Jiang Yu doesnât know how to appreciate you, donât think about him anymore.â
âI know.â Jing Tong rolled around. âAnyway, donât interfere with my business.â
Jing Zhiyuan paused for a bit and said, âOkay, I will respect your opinion. Go home early.â
âOkay. Bye, Dad.â
Jing Tong felt worse after hanging up the phone.
She didnât think much of Ji Shiting in the first place anyway, but Jiang Yu... Her father was right. He just didnât know how to appreciate her!
She then got up, changed her clothes and left.
She drove her favorite sports car to the police station where Jiang Yu was.
Jiang Yu was flipping through the case file at this time. He had been sent to Yang City mainly for Xie Siqiâs case, but there was no progress in the case at the moment, so Officer Liu decided to show him all the cases that hadnât been solved in recent years, hoping that he could make a breakthrough.
Jiang Yu was enjoying it.
Thus, he was very upset when Jing Tong dashed into his office in a flurry.
He stared coldly at the girl who was blushing from excitement.
âIâm not here to bother you.â Jing Tong swore. âI just want to ask about the progress of the case. Have you caught the real culprit?â
âWhat right do you have to ask?â Jiang Yu said coldly.
âYour progress in solving the case concerns my happiness for the rest of my life!â Jing Tong lied. âJi Shiting said that heâll marry me as long as Ye Shengge is cleared of suspicion.â
Jiang Yuâs eyes widened. âDonât you know Ye Shengge is pregnant?â
âThatâs right, but theyâre divorced,â Jing Tong said happily. âHer pregnancy doesnât stop Ji Shiting from marrying me.â
Jiang Yu closed the case file.
Jing Tongâs heart pounded.
That man was angry!
He was either angry that she had fallen in love with someone else, or angry that she was going to willfully marry a man who didnât care about her. Either way, it meant that he still cared about her!
She couldnât help but grin widely.
âWhen are you going to be more sensible, Jing Tong?â Jiang Yuâs voice was cold, and his eyes were filled with disappointment. âHow dare you snatch the husband of a pregnant woman?â
