Chapter 319: Poor
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
For the past few days, Shen Yin had been thinking about Shen Nian.
Although this child was much more mature than his peers, he was still small and slight. He had never told his family about being bullied in school. She did not know if this was the first time such a thing had happened, or if it was only because this matter had blown up that she had found out.
Fortunately, the school had shown Lian Jing a great deal of respect. They had followed her instructions and installed cameras everywhere. It might be enough to ensure Nian Nian’s safety.
When the Cui family was informed by the school that Cui Hao was bullying his classmates in school, their attitude had been very arrogant at first. However, when they heard that the other party was actually Lian Jing’s son, they had brought gifts to the Lian family that night to apologize and make it up to him. Lian Jing originally wanted to take the opportunity to beat him up and throw him out, but Shen Yin stopped him. She had accepted the gifts, given him a warning, and then sent him away.
This matter was temporarily closed, but there was something else that worried Shen Yin.
Last night, she had planned to go to the hospital to visit Shen Nian and Cheng Mu and send some daily necessities to the two children. But the moment she left the house, she had run into Lian’e and Fu Xiao.
The moment they entered, they glared at her coldly and asked where Old Master Lian was.
Although Shen Yin disliked their attitude, she took into consideration that they were Lian Jing’s elders, so she swallowed her anger and told them that Old Master Lian was resting in his room.
Lian’e snorted and sized her up critically. Her eyes were filled with the disdain of a superior looking at an ant. “You’ve been with Lian Jing for so long. Why don’t you have any decent clothes? Tsk, tsk, tsk. You’re really poor. I don’t think Lian Jing cares much about you. Otherwise, why wouldn’t he tell his assistant to arrange such a simple matter?”
Fu Xiao was still as obedient as ever. He also mocked Shen Yin before going upstairs to see Old Master Lian.
Shen Yin did not want to take their words to heart, but she still could not help feeling distracted at work.
Coincidentally, the forensics department was free today. Zheng Ling, Han Xu, and Wang Sheng were all there. Three pairs of eyes stared at Shen Yin, who had been dazedly sitting in the chief pathologist’s seat all morning. After looking at each other, they used silent gestures to finally send Zheng Ling, who was the closest to Shen Yin.
The little girl carried another box of fruits and placed it on Shen Yin’s table with a smile. “Boss, have some fruits.”
“Oh, thank you.” Shen Yin came back to her senses and mechanically reached out her arm to put a grape into her mouth with a toothpick. Then, she looked up and smiled. “It’s quite sweet. You’re better than me at choosing fruits. The grapes I choose are always sour.”
Zheng Ling smiled shyly. She glanced at the other two people, who were looking expectant, and said with a smile, “Then, if you want to buy fruits, come with me. I’ll help you pick them.”
“Okay.” Shen Yin smiled and nodded. Then, she continued to stare blankly at the autopsy drawing on the computer screen.
Zheng Ling only glanced at the screen before the corners of her mouth subconsciously curled up. She gulped in fear and asked, “Boss, is there something troubling you? Is it about the case? You can tell us and the three of us will help you analyze it.”
“Oh, no.” Shen Yin also realized that her habit of staring at corpses when she was in a daze was a little perverted. She quickly closed the picture and shook her head. “It’s something at home.”
“That’s right. Boss, you even applied for leave that day. Did something happen to Nian Nian?” Zheng Ling moved a chair to sit beside her desk with a worried expression. Now, they all knew that Shen Yin had a son. Although they were shocked at first, they had already accepted that their beautiful forensic pathologist secretly had a six-year-old son.
Shen Yin shook her head and sighed subconsciously. “No, the matter with Nian
Nian has been resolved. I’m wondering if I’m very bad at dressing up.”
“Huh?” This question stunned Zheng Ling. Shen Yin was the most fetchingly dressed person in the entire police station!
“Why would you think that?” Wang Sheng walked over with a teacup and poured a cup for Shen Yin. “Did someone say something about you?
“Mm.” Shen Yin nodded her head in frustration. “Is my taste in clothes very old-fashioned?”
“It’s not old-fashioned.” Zheng Ling blinked her eyes in bewilderment. “Boss, with your looks, you will still look stunning even in a sack. How can you be old-fashioned?”
“You’re such a flatterer.” Shen Yin tapped her nose in amusement and noticed her fashionable clothes. She suddenly pursed her lips and asked hesitantly,
“Are you free after work? If you are, can you help me pick out some clothes?”
“Sure!” Zheng Ling agreed immediately. She had long wanted to see her boss wear other styles of clothes.
After working for so long, her boss was either wearing a shirt, long pants, or a long skirt. It was a waste of her beautiful face. Zheng Ling rubbed her hands eagerly, wishing she could buy her boss all the sexy clothes in the mall!
True to her word, after work that night, Zheng Ling took the initiative to drag Shen Yin to the mall..
