When Xie Lin saw the aggrieved look on Lu Ye's face, he suddenly felt a little guilty.
Had I been too harsh?
After all, Lu Ye had only followed him because he was worried about him.
After what had happened before, it was perfectly normal for him to be left with lingering fears. Xie Lin really shouldn't have snapped at him like that.
Xie Lin gave a light cough.
"Officers, please give us a moment."
With that, he reached back, caught Lu Ye's wrist, and pulled him aside, lowering his voice.
"Don't be so fierce when you talk to the police. At least watch your attitude."
Lu Ye's sour mood instantly brightened.

He couldn't suppress the corners of his mouth and broke into a grin, chuckling twice.
"Wife, are you trying to cheer me up?"

Xie Lin let out a long sigh, his face full of helplessness.
"Did you hear what I said? Don't be so rude to the police. And when we get there, don't speak unless they ask you something. Got it?"
"Got it-"
In an excellent mood, Lu Ye took his hand, naturally interlacing their fingers.
"Come on, wife. Don't keep the officers waiting."
"..."
Xie Lin rolled his eyes. Who was he doing all this for?
When they returned to the two officers, Lu Ye was beaming.
"Sorry for the wait. My wife's rather clingy and insisted on pulling me aside to whisper to me. I mean, what couldn't he just say in front of the police, right?"
The two officers: "..."

Their mouths twitched, and they gave a couple of dry laughs.
"Ha-ha, you two really are close."
"Of course."
Lu Ye lifted his chin.
"My wife really loves me..."
"Aah-ow, ow, ow!"
