The police officer looked at Leng Xiao and replied, “We haven’t found him yet.”

“Then increase the intensity of the investigation. Quickly find that person. We must not let him hurt Ye Qingran. Wait…” as Leng Xiao spoke, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

His face darkened. “What is the meaning of calling me here today? Could it be that you suspect that the person who’s harassing Ye Qingran is me? I do like Ye Qingran, but I would never do such a thing as to harass her.”

The police officer said, “When Miss Ye was being harassed earlier, we made a list of her suitors. Who was the most suspicious? Miss Ye said that it wouldn’t be you, and she also believed that you would never do such a thing, so….”

Leng Xiao was ecstatic. He thought that he had heard wrongly, so he could not help but interrupt the other party to seek an affirmative answer. “You just said that Ye Qingran said that she believed in me. I’m definitely not that pervert.”

The policeman nodded.

Leng Xiao smiled. Although he had been pestering Ye Qingran and occasionally bumped into her, and Ye Qingran did not hide her dislike for him, but she still believed in him.

It could be seen that he was not completely without weight in her heart.

At least, she treated him as a friend.

The policeman said, “This time, Miss Ye went to a restaurant for a meal and received a harassing package in the restaurant. We investigated the cars parked outside the restaurant and found that Mr. Leng’s car was also there.”

Leng Xiao said, “Since Ye Qingran said that it couldn’t be me, even if my car was there, I can’t be the one harassing her. But it was indeed the right decision to call me here, no clues must be overlooked. If you want to know anything, feel free to ask.”

Even if the police didn’t investigate, he wanted to investigate. The culprit actually used such a perverted method to harass Ye Qingran. He had to find that pervert.

Then, he would dismember the culprit into pieces!

When Leng Xiao came out, he bumped into Chu Yan who was preparing to enter.

Chu Yan said as he passed by him, “Ye Qingran trusts you, but I don’t trust you. I will have people keep an eye on you. If I find out that it’s you, I won’t let you or the Leng family off.”

Leng Xiao turned his head and was about to retort when Chu Yan had already stepped in. He rolled his eyes at the sky and said, “Rather than suspecting me, it’s better to protect Qingran well. If you can’t protect her well, see if I won’t snatch her away.”

Chu Yan learned from the police that Leng Xiao did go to the restaurant to meet someone. He went earlier than Ye Qingran, but came out later than Ye Qingran.

Therefore, he did not see Ye Qingran and did not know that Ye Qingran also went to the restaurant.

Based on Chu Yan’s understanding of Leng Xiao, if he knew that Ye Qingran was in the restaurant, he would definitely pester Ye Qingran.

However, this did not mean that Leng Xiao was completely clear.

He would have people keep an eye on Leng Xiao until she found the person who really harassed Ye Qingran.

Chu Yan continued to analyze the remaining list of suspicious people.

He had a keen sense that the person who harassed Ye Qingran that day must have been outside the restaurant.

After so long, he had finally revealed something that could be traced. He definitely had to find the other party! !

That night, Ye Qingran was reading a book and fell asleep in a daze.

She suddenly woke up and saw that there was nothing beside her. She took out her phone and looked. It was almost twelve, but Chu Yan had yet to return to his room to rest.

She got up and went out. She saw that the light in the study room was still on.

Ye Qingran pushed the door open and entered.

Chu Yan saw her enter and closed the computer in front of him. He stood up and asked, “You’re not asleep yet?”

“I’m waiting for you.” Ye Qingran walked to Chu Yan.

Chu Yan immediately reached out and wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her into his embrace. “You go to sleep first. I still have some matters to attend to.”

Ye Qingran looked up at him. “Have you been busy lately? Why are you still busy in the middle of the night?”

Chu Yan had yet to reply when his phone rang.

The phone was on the table. Ye Qingran subconsciously glanced at it. There was no saved number in the phone. It was an unfamiliar number.

She looked at Chu Yan, but Chu Yan did not move for a long time. Ye Qingran asked, “Aren’t you going to pick it up?”

Chu Yan raised his eyebrows slightly and did not say anything.

After the call was cut off, the other party called again.

It seemed that if he did not pick up, the other party would continue to call.

Chu Yan still didn’t pick up the phone. His slender fingers swiped the answer button and said coldly, “What’s the matter?”

A slightly hoarse male voice came from the other side. “You’ve been back to the capital for almost half a year. Aren’t you going to come home?”

Chu Yan replied flatly, “I’m very busy.”

The man on the other side said with a hint of authority, “Your grandfather has been in poor health recently. Don’t you want to come back and take a look?”

Chu Yan replied with the same three words, “I’m very busy.”

His words made the man across raise his tone slightly, he was clearly a little angry. “The Old Master sent Housekeeper Wen to visit you. You directly chased her out of the capital city. The Old Master didn’t say anything. He’s old and doesn’t have many requests, he just hopes that you can come home and visit more often.”

Chu Yan continued to say those three words, “I’m very busy.”

The man opposite him was clearly angry. “Chu Yan, no matter what you do outside, we will let you do as you wish. Even if you find a woman outside, we have no objections. If you want to bring that woman home, it’s up to you. After all, it’s just one more mouth to feed.”

Chu Yan was still unusually cold. “I’m very busy. If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up.”

The man opposite him was so angry that his chest was heaving up and down, and his breathing was all messed up. He said angrily, “You’re busy, you’re busy. You can be considered to have a position in the company, but I’ve never seen you go to the company for a day…”

Chu Yan did not want to hear what he had to say anymore, so he directly hung up the phone.

Ye Qingran leaned on the table and looked at him with a smile. “The person that called, could it be your father?”

Chu Yan glanced at her. Although he did not say anything, his eyes already gave an answer.

Ye Qingran teased, “Your father’s tone is really like that of a emperor. He thinks his little prince has fallen in love with a commoner young lady, and for her sake is refusing the throne. So he has no choice but to ask his prince to bring her home, anyway it’s just one woman. His tone is quite funny.”

Chu Yan held her hand. “I’m sorry.”

Ye Qingran used her other hand to point at the tip of his nose. “There’s no need to apologize. It’s just that you really don’t want to visit your grandfather?”

Chu Yan replied, “That old man is in good health. Even if Housekeeper Wen doesn’t take care of him, there are other women to take care of him. They’re so forceful in wanting me to go back, they just want me to help the company. If I’m not wrong, something must have happened.”

Ye Qingran tilted her head slightly and asked curiously, “Oh right, I still don’t know your other name.”

Chu Yan was silent for two seconds. Under Ye Qingran’s expectant gaze, he slowly opened his mouth and said, “Yan fan.”

“This name sounds familiar…”

Ye Qingran mumbled and suddenly widened her eyes in surprise. “Isn’t this that… Asura?”

Chu Yan:”…”
