"As the chief of Jiangcheng Police Station, it is my responsibility to maintain public order in Jiangcheng and protect every citizen."

Jiang Bo frowned, but still answered truthfully.

Yu Jie's lips were white. Even if she applied lip gloss, she couldn't hide the whiteness. "Then why do you say again that you are willing to give me a chance to pursue you? Is it an expedient measure to stabilize me and make sacrifices?" ?"

"No."

Jiang Bo denied, "I don't know what it means to like you, I just know that I don't hate you. To be honest, I'm not young anymore and I don't have a suitable partner around me. Now that you show up, I just want to give it a try."

"So, it's just because I showed up at the right time when you thought it was time for you to get married that I had this opportunity, right?"

Yu Jie knew in her heart that Jiang Bo was telling the truth.

There is disappointment, but it feels reasonable.

Think about it too.

The two were strangers at the beginning, they just attended a banquet together and became partners.

If Jiang Bo said that he had to fall in love with her at first sight, she didn't believe it.

"It's okay if you understand it that way."

There was an apology in Jiang Bo's eyes, "I never thought about trampling on anyone's feelings. If we get along for a while, I still have no feelings for you, and I will make it clear to you."

Being loyal to your partner and being responsible for your own choices are the most basic upbringings.

"it is good."

Yu Jie took two steps forward and tilted her head playfully, "Then let's date on the premise of getting married. If either party feels inappropriate, they should make it clear to the other party as soon as possible and never get entangled."

"Aren't you going to chase me? Are you going to skip the next step?"

Jiang Bo raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a half-smile.

Yu Jie didn't care, "That's not important. But there is one thing I have to explain to you."

Seeing that her expression became serious, Jiang Bo made a gesture of listening and said, "Let's talk about it."

"I want to become a monk that day, not to force you, nor because of you. No...it's because of you, but it has nothing to do with you."

Yu Jie's expression twisted into a ball, as if she was thinking about how to say it more appropriately.

"Just tell me the reason."

Seeing that she was struggling to explain clearly, Jiang Bo reminded her in a funny way.

Yu Jie's cheeks turned red and she stopped being coy, "I just feel that I messed up the matter and I don't know how it will end. You don't want to listen to my explanation. I think becoming a monk can give an explanation to the fans, which can also be regarded as an explanation to you. To put it bluntly, it’s just cowardice and trying to escape reality.”

Finally expressing herself clearly, Yu Jie took a long breath and raised her chin to look at Jiang Bo, "Understand, what I did has nothing to do with anyone. It was my personal behavior."

"understood."

Jiang Bo nodded, raised his left hand and glanced at the time, "Can you leave now?"

"You...you really understand?"

Yu Jie blinked, her face full of astonishment.

"Yes. You want to become a monk because you want to give an explanation to your fans. It's not because of me or anyone else. I understand."

Jiang Boxiao, there is no problem with his understanding.

Yu Jie's expression was blank, "It's good if you understand."

She was ready with a lot of explanations, trying to make him believe what she said.

Jiang Bo believed it so easily and accepted it.

This gave her a feeling of powerlessness as if she punched hard but landed on a ball of cotton, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.

But knowing that Jiang Bo did not misunderstand that she was deliberately making trouble to force him to submit, a huge stone was moved in her heart. She quickly put the discomfort away and went downstairs with him happily. Went to Blue Bridge Mansion.

When they arrived, many guests in formal attire were already walking in.

Yu Jie and Jiang Bo followed the crowd into the mansion and saw a spacious and bright hall.

There are all kinds of flowers and decorations, and even the snack area is filled with various drinks and snacks, which shows the host's care and generosity.

"Don't move here now, I'm going to say hello to a friend."

Yu Jie was looking at the details of the banquet when she heard Jiang Bo's low voice.

Yu Jie raised her head and subconsciously looked around, but didn't see who Jiang Bo was looking for.

But he still waved his hand and said, "Go and do your work. I'll stand here waiting for you to come over."

"That's not necessary."

Jiang Bo pointed to the snack area over there, "You can go have something to eat over there, and I'll come find you later."

"it is good."

Yu Jie admitted that she had attended many banquets and met many celebrities.

But this banquet seemed different from any banquet she had attended before.

-

The person Jiang Bo saw was Shen Zheng.

Someone who shouldn't be here.

In a corner, he saw a man standing there with his head lowered and without any sense of existence.

Like him, Shen Zheng put on a disguise.

The originally beautiful, unmanly face now looked dull and ordinary.

His slightly hunched back made him perfectly invisible among the crowd.

"Shhh."

Shen Zheng also spotted Jiang Bo and pulled him back to the corner with a toasting gesture and motioned for him to look in one direction.

Jiang Bo looked in the direction where his eyes were focused.

Two men were talking and seemed to be enjoying themselves.

"Today's banquet is held for those two people. The one with the mustache is a spy and wants to take away one of our research results through unfair means. The other one is the connector."

Shen Zheng's voice rang in his ears.

His voice was so low that even if Jiang Bo was beside him, he had to concentrate to hear what he said clearly.

"I heard that drug lords are infested here."

Jiang Bo frowned and did not hide the purpose of his visit.

"Where did you get the news?"

Shen Zheng paused with the wine glass shaking in his hand, feeling vaguely uneasy in his heart.

"Insider revealed."

Regarding his source of information, it is not convenient for Jiang Bo to say more.

It's not that he can't trust Shen Zheng, it's just that the implications are too wide and it's inconvenient to say.

Shen Zheng's expression became serious, and he suddenly threw the wine glass in his hand in one direction.

At the same time, he straightened up and jumped in one direction.

"Leave separately, quickly!"

Before leaving, Shen Zheng quickly said a word and ran in one direction without looking back.

And where he had been before, a bullet hole suddenly appeared.

Jiang Bo also noticed something was wrong immediately, his expression changed, and he ran towards Yu Jie without thinking.

The guests who were wandering around screamed in surprise and looked for places to hide.

There are also some people who are very targeted and outflank Jiang Bo.

Jiang Bo quickly distinguished the real guests from the thugs hidden among the guests, and quickly rushed out of the encirclement using the scurrying guests as cover.

He knew there was illegal trading here today and came to inquire about the situation.

But they never thought that this was a situation where they would invite you to be put into a trap, and they never thought that they would do it directly in public.
