Chapter 115 - 115 Gown
115 Gown
“Well, not only were they not close, but Xiao Ming said they didn’t know each other at all.”
Feng Jing’s words made Yin Tao fall into deep thought. It seemed that they had no reason to summon Meng Heng, and there was no special connection between Li Ting, Song Yi and Yang Ying.
“It would be great if we could find a reason to conduct a search. We can check Meng Heng’s aesthetics hospital and we may find some evidence.” Yin Tao was a little discouraged. It was even more annoying to have a suspect but not have the right to arrest him.
“Don’t be anxious. We’ll definitely find clues. As long as it’s something he did, there will definitely be flaws.”
Feng Jing’s tone was very certain, and Yin Tao trusted him inexplicably. She didn’t know if it was because Feng Jing was a capable detective in the original novel, but Yin Tao just had full confidence in his ability.
“A call from my brother?” Yin Tao glanced at her vibrating phone. The caller ID was Yin Hao.
“Xiaotao, I heard from Lin Jia that you’re going to his grandfather’s birthday party tomorrow?”
Yin Hao initially didn’t believe it when he heard from Lin Jia that his younger sister would attend Grandpa Lin’s birthday banquet. After all, other than being interested in solving cases, Yin Tao had never participated in any social activities.
However, this morning, he received a tailored gown from Lin Jia. He even said that it was specially prepared for Yin Tao. Under Lin Jia’s instructions, Yin Hao called his sister.
“That’s right, elder brother, you’re going tomorrow too, right?”
When Yin Hao heard his sister’s answer, he confirmed that Lin Jia wasn’t lying to him.
“Xiaoning, Mom, and I will be there.”
Yin Tao was a little surprised to hear Yin Ning’s name, but on second thought, Xi Feng would definitely attend tomorrow, so Yin Ning’s appearance was not surprising.
“Find time to go home and try on the gown. See if you need anything else.” Under Lin Jia’s special request, Yin Hao didn’t tell her that Lin Jia had prepared the gown for her.
Yin Hao could tell that Lin Jia was very concerned about his younger sister. Although Lin Jia was slightly older than Yin Tao, he was good looking and outstanding in many aspects. Yin Hao also thought well of his personality. Yin Hao would be very supportive if Yin Tao and Lin Jia got together .
“Alright, I’ll go back later.” Yin Tao hadn’t thought about this at first. She thought that she would be if she just dressed up a little. It seemed that Lin Jia’s grandfather’s birthday banquet was rather grand. Otherwise, Yin Hao wouldn’t have specially prepared a gown for her.
After she ended the call, Yin Tao somewhat regretted agreeing to Lin Jia’s request. Tomorrow would be a grand occasion where the male and female leads would be together, so she should just keep a low profile.
“Are you going home later?” Feng Jing started the car slowly.
“Mm, my brother asked me to go back and try on a gown. Tomorrow is Brother Lin Jia’s grandfather’s birthday banquet.” Yin Tao nodded.
“Are you staying at home tonight?” Feng Jing asked.
Yin Tao shook her head. “I’d better go back to the dormitory. The test results for Yang Ying will be out soon. I’m going to the autopsy lab to take a look tonight.”
“Then I’ll send you home to try on the gown, and take you straight back to the police station after you are done.” Feng Jing didn’t wait for Yin Tao to agree before changing the navigation address to the Yin villa.
Yin Tao didn’t decline Feng Jing’s good intentions. If she were to take a car back and forth, it would take a long time. They quickly arrived at the destination, but Feng Jing didn’t get out of the car. He watched as Yin Tao quickly ran home and slowly lowered his seat.
If she weren’t a forensic doctor, Yin Tao would only be a young lady in her early twenties, a young missus from a wealthy family, living a privileged life in a villa. However, Yin Tao chose a completely different path.
Upon entering the villa, Yin Tao saw Yin Ning sitting on the sofa in the living room.
“Is there a guest in the house?” Zhao Yue slowly walked down the stairs. When she saw Yin Tao, a trace of frustration unconsciously appeared on her face.
“Mom, is my brother home?” Yin Tao didn’t want to quarrel with Zhao Yue. She wasn’t familiar with her, so she wouldn’t feel sad like the original Yin Tao because of her cold treatment.
“The study on the second floor.” Zhao Yue felt jinxed the second she laid eyes on Yin Tao. She didn’t know why she would rather stay out at the police station than come home.
Yin Tao ignored Zhao Yue and Yin Ning and headed straight for the study on the second floor.
“Mom, is Sister going to attend Grandpa Lin’s birthday banquet too?” Yin Ning asked worriedly as she watched Yin Tao go upstairs.
“Why would she be going? She is not presentable at all!” Zhao Yue frowned. She felt that Yin Tao had become a little strange, and her personality wasn’t like before. She had become much quieter, and even she felt that she was a stranger now.
“Why don’t you bring Sister along? There should be many boys from good families at Grandpa Lin’s birthday banquet. I hope Sister can get married before me.”
