At the director's office.
Nian Xi gently knocked on the door and found two familiar faces sitting inside. One was Xu Gang, whom she had not seen since Jiang Yuning went missing, and the other was Feng Jichuan, who rarely came back after he went to Interpol.
"Nian Xi, no, it's captain Nian now. Long time no see," Xu Gang smiled and stood up to shake her hand.
Nian XI's hand trembled slightly as she went forward to shake his hand. "You guys came this time... did you... have news of him?"
After he left for so long, there was no news at all. Now, it seemed like there was finally a glimmer of hope.
"Take a seat first," the director said.
Nian Xi sat silently on the empty chair beside Feng Jichuan.
"Nian XI, you've lost weight." Feng Jichuan looked at her and sighed softly. "A girl should know to take it easy."
In his eyes, she would always be the little girl from back then. He had wanted to protect her, but she no longer needed him.
