Ultimate Village Doctor

Under normal circumstances, Qin You would have already arrested and interrogated the other party.

However, Situ Yu was no ordinary person.

He was the chairman of the Lily Hotel. She had investigated and found that the company handover by Shangguan Baihe had followed official procedures and could be verified. Qin You had no grounds to take action against Situ Yu—it wasn't reasonable to arrest someone based on unfounded suspicion alone.

Thus, she could only patiently spar with him.

At this time, the dishes and drinks were quickly served.

Situ Yu opened the red wine, poured two glasses, and offered one to Qin You, saying, "Captain Qin, you seem very concerned about Miss Shangguan."

Qin You did not touch the wine glass. She stared into Situ Yu's eyes and said, "She is my friend, so of course, I am concerned about her. Now she has suddenly left Niu Y County without a trace. I must find her, no matter where she has gone or what has happened to her."

Qin You's tone grew colder as she spoke, all the while paying close attention to his facial expressions and eyes.

If he showed even a hint of panic, she could follow the leads and expose his slip.

Unfortunately for her, Situ Yu showed no sign of panic; instead, he burst into laughter.

Qin You asked coldly, "What are you laughing at?"

Situ Yu reduced his laughter and replied, "Captain Qin, you seem to have pegged me as the main suspect behind Miss Shangguan's disappearance. But you are definitely mistaken. Shangguan Baihe is doing very well now; you have no reason to worry."

"You know her whereabouts?" Qin You frowned.

"Of course," Situ Yu shrugged his shoulders.

"Then tell me, where is she?" Qin You pressed on.

Situ Yu replied, "Director Qin, Shangguan Baihe is also part of our Situ Family. To be exact, she is my sister-in-law. Do you think I would harm her?"

"What? Shangguan Baihe is your sister-in-law?"

Qin You was stunned. She had known Shangguan Baihe for many years and had never heard her mention a husband, let alone seen one. She had always assumed Shangguan was single; this was completely unexpected.

"Of course. Why would I lie to you at the risk of my life?" Situ Yu said with a slight smile, "I'm now in charge of Lily Hotel, and it's just a normal family business transition. So my sister-in-law is very safe; you have nothing to worry about, Director Qin."

Although Situ Yu spoke casually,

Qin You still harbored doubts, and moreover, she always felt that Situ Yu was quite hypocritical.

Despite Situ Yu's gentlemanly and impeccable appearance,

"Director Qin, I've managed to get you to come out today after much difficulty, so let's not just talk about my sister-in-law, shall we? I've shared news about my sister-in-law with you, so why don't we talk about us instead?" Situ Yu raised his glass.

Without picking up the wine glass, Qin You frowned and said, "I don't drink."

Situ Yu didn't insist and smiled, "Alright then, you can always drink water, right?"

Situ Yu poured Qin You a cup of tea.

Qin You didn't want to deal with Situ Yu, but she was still uneasy about Shangguan Baihe. She picked up the tea cup and thanked him.

Situ Yu took a sip of his wine and said, "Captain Qin, don't blame me for being straightforward, but ever since I first saw you, I felt a special connection with you. So I hope that you, Director Qin, could give me a chance."

Qin You set down her tea cup and said coldly, "What kind of joke is this?"

Situ Yu faced Qin You's icy demeanor with calm composure, "Captain Qin, I'm not joking. I'm very serious. I know your husband has been gone for over a year, and you're single now. If you would marry me, the Situ Family could offer you great support. You're surely aware of the Situ Family's capabilities."

"Of course, if you don't wish to continue with this demanding job, you could resign and come manage the Lily Hotel as the general manager. Our hotel is currently up for a four-star rating, which should be confirmed shortly," Situ Yu enticed her smoothly.

Lily Hotel was an almost four-star establishment, the most impressive hotel in Niu Y County, with assets worth hundreds of millions. Managing Lily Hotel would definitely be more comfortable than being a police officer.

Situ Yu spoke confidently, his eyes filled with self-assuredness and control.

He believed no one could refuse the conditions he offered.

Whether it was power or money, he could provide it all.

Qin You looked at her watch, unimpressed, and stood up, "It's getting late, I have work this afternoon. I must take my leave now, Mr. Situ."

Situ Yu was taken aback; Qin You's response was unexpected. She was leaving just like that—what did that mean? Was she playing hard to get?

"Wait, Captain Qin, didn't you hear what I just said?"

"Mr. Situ, I heard you loud and clear, and I can tell you now, it's not going to happen," said Qin You expressionlessly before turning and heading towards the door.

Situ Yu's expression darkened as a glint of darkness flashed across his eyes.

He had been rejected.

He, Situ Yu, had offered such favorable terms, yet Qin You had turned him down. It was unbelievable.

"Captain Qin, are you really going to reject me? Believe me, you won't find a better option than me," he said.

As soon as Situ Yu finished speaking, a voice came from the door, "Is that so?"

Then the door was pushed open.

A tall young man walked in.

Qin You's gaze suddenly tightened, then her face lit up with joy, "Xiaoshan."

"Wife, I'm here." Long Xiaoshan walked over and wrapped his arm around Qin You's waist.

It wasn't the first time Long Xiaoshan had called her "wife," but it was the first time in public. Qin You, who was usually cold and a strong-willed woman, blushed furiously.

Seeing the woman he fancied in the arms of a young man, being called "wife," even a person as composed as Situ Yu had a sudden shift to a darker expression.

What was even worse was that Qin You did not reject him.

Knowing Qin You's fiery character,

Without a close relationship,

Qin You would never have expressed such an emotion.

He stared at the young man holding Qin You.

The young man was tall and muscular; next to him, Qin You, who was about 1.7 meters tall, looked almost like a bird nestled against a person. His facial features were sharp and handsome, suggesting youthfulness as he looked not older than twenty, yet the determination in his eyes and the aura surrounding him didn't match his age.

In appearance, this young man completely overshadowed him.
