Chapter 283 Asking Chen Xueru out

"Xiao Jiang, what do you think about this case?"

Jiang Bo said:

“This case is indeed not easy to handle.”

"The most difficult thing is to grasp the timing."

"If you fail to grasp the opportunity well and alert the enemy, you may not be able to find another opportunity in the future."

"Besides, his identity is not ordinary."

"If we can't get the evidence right the first time, we'll be in a passive position."

Chen Dalong dusted off his cigarette ash:

"You're right."

"So this case must be handled with extreme caution."

Xu Jingshan opened the folder, took out a photo, handed it to Jiang Bo, and said to him:

"The one wearing glasses is Xu Shijun."

"He is currently staying in Room 203 of the Diaoyuting Hotel."

Then he took out another photo:

"This person is called Richard. He is Xu Shijun's classmate in England. He is also living in Room 308 of Diaoyuting Hotel."

Richard?!

Jiang Bo was shocked when he saw the photo.

Can't it be such a coincidence?

Isn’t this the blond-haired, blue-eyed foreigner that I met in Chen Xueru’s shop?

Chen Xueru seemed to have said that this person lived in Diaoyuting Hotel.

Xu Jingshan looked at Jiang Bo looking at Richard's photo with a strange expression and asked:

"What's wrong? Do you know him?"

Xu Jingshan was just joking. After all, Jiang Bo had never been abroad and had no overseas connections.

This Richard has only been here a few days.

He thought that Jiang Bo was just curious about the photos of foreigners who looked like monkeys.

However, Jiang Bo's next answer shocked Xu Jingshan.

"I've seen this Richard before."

"what?"

Even Chen Dalong was a little surprised.

Jiang Bo didn't waste any words. He immediately told Chen Dalong and the others in detail what happened in Chen Xueru's shop.

"Director Chen, Captain Xu, I have an idea."

"I want to use Chen Xueru's connections to get in touch with this Richard and find out the truth."

Chen Dalong pondered and said:

"Does Richard know your identity?"

Jiang Bo said:

"He now thinks I'm a doctor and shouldn't know."

"I'll check right away."

Xu Jingshan said:

"If Chen Xueru has not revealed your identity, then I think this is a very good way."

"It's much more effective than us approaching him proactively."

Chen Dalong also agreed to this plan.

Then, the three of them discussed the details of the plan.

After leaving the police station, Jiang Bo went straight to Chen Xueru's silk shop.

Chen Xueru was standing in front of the counter, bored.

There were not many customers in the afternoon and the bills had been settled. She was thinking about going to Xu Huizhen's tavern for a drink in the evening.

Suddenly, the door opened with a creak.

"Welcome, please feel free to look around..."

Chen Xueru said lazily as she looked towards the door.

But when she saw who was coming, she immediately perked up.

"How did you come?"

Chen Xueru flew over lightly like a happy little bird.

Jiang Bo looked around cautiously and found that there were few people in the store, so he said to her:

"Has Richard ever contacted you again?"

Chen Xueru was stunned. She never expected that Jiang Bo's first question would be to Richard.

Immediately, she figured it out.

Jiang Bo, is he jealous?

When he had nothing to do, he never came to see me. Every time he came, he was either ordering clothes or picking up goods.

However, he had just come yesterday and came again today, and he was so concerned about the relationship between me and Richard, which clearly showed that he was jealous.

He thought Richard was pursuing him and he minded it!

Chen Xueru was overjoyed and tried hard to control her expression to make herself appear more reserved and calm.

"He has been pestering me these past few days."

"But I don't like to talk to him."

"By the way, it's a rare occasion that you come here today, why don't we go to Huizhen's place for a drink later?"

Chen Xueru took the initiative to invite him.

"Alright."

Jiang Bo said to Chen Xueru:

"That's great, then I'll borrow Boss Xu's place for a while."

The surprise came too suddenly.

Chen Xueru felt like her mood was about to soar.

"Wait a minute, I'll change my clothes and come right over."

As he spoke, he asked the waiter to make tea for Jiang Bo and bring some dried fruits.

He ran upstairs quickly.

Less than twenty minutes later, the sound of doors opening and closing could be heard from upstairs.

Then, Chen Xueru was seen walking down leisurely in a peony pink cheongsam.

Her hair had been freshly combed, and her curly hair was pinned up with a hairpin, hanging loosely behind her head.

She took Jiang Bo's arm:

"Are you impatient? Let's go."

Chen Xueru also sprayed perfume. When she came closer, Jiang Bo smelled a pleasant fragrance.

They were just going to have a simple meal, but Jiang Bo felt that she was dressed too formally.

But when I thought about the fact that she herself was the living signboard of the silk shop, I understood her.

Not to mention, the cheongsam looks really pleasing to the eye on a beautiful person like Chen Xueru.

Unfortunately, in a few years, we will no longer be able to see such scenery, as it will soon be replaced by military green and navy blue.

Chen Xueru took Jiang Bo's arm, and together they walked out of the silk shop and headed towards the tavern.

Chen Xueru's outstanding appearance attracted the attention of passers-by.

When Chen Xueru arrived at the door of the tavern, she was about to go in when Jiang Bo stopped her.

He greeted Cai Quanwu who was busy at the door, and Cai Quanwu quickly turned around:

"It's Teacher Jiang! Please come in."

Jiang Bo waved his hand and said to him:

"Go in and tell Manager Xu that Boss Chen and I have something to discuss, so I'd like to borrow her place. Ask her to arrange a single room for me."

Cai Quanwu went in immediately, said something in Xu Huizhen's ear, and soon came out with a key.

"Teacher Jiang, please come with me."

He took Jiang Bo and Chen Xueru through the convenience canteen, which was connected to Xu Huizhen's backyard. They went directly to a house in Xu Huizhen's backyard.

"Please take a seat first, the food will be here soon."

“It’s quiet here, and there’s absolutely no one else to disturb you.”

Chen Xueru sat down opposite Jiang Bo, looking a little confused.

She could see that Jiang Bo had something to say to her, and it was something very important.

Is he going to propose to me?

That’s not right. I clearly heard that he is already married.

What was going on? Let me be his secret lover?

Chen Xueru couldn't help but ask herself, if Jiang Bo really made such a request, would she agree to him?

Chen Xueru was a little conflicted, but she was not a very conservative person.

However, she has always been a very proud person and has never thought about having an affair with any man in secret.

However, if that person is Jiang Bo...

Chen Xueru blushed.

It doesn't seem unacceptable.
