Chapter 154
Blue Tail got off work and remembered Qin Ming's words, so she planned to call him after work. Did he have something to say?
What did he want to say...
She lowered her eyes, standing by the roadside thinking, and eventually, she carried her bag and rode in the car driven by Qin Ming back to Nanfeng Courtyard.
She had finally managed to stop thinking about him...
She herself dared not think about him anymore...
What could change by seeing him again? It would only increase the pain.
Qin Ming had already been kind enough to her, someone not even related to him. She no longer asked anything of him.
Now she just wanted to stay away from him for a while, so that slowly... slowly she might forget him.
The night fell slowly.
Administration Bureau.
Prison.
"Roar!!! Qin Ming! You traitor of the Wolf Clan!" In the iron cell, a Fallen werewolf bound in chains, dressed in rags, and emanating a foul stench howled in rage, "You deserve to die! Helping pure humans!"
His struggles caused the heavy iron chains to constantly clash with a clattering sound.
"Roar!" His mouth exuded a nauseating foul odor as he glared with blood-red eyes, "One day, you traitors will be devoured until not a bone remains! Hahaha just you wait! Qin Ming! You deserve to die!"
Two meters away from him, Qin Ming wore a black uniform, his expression calm, his pupils a light blue like the fathomless deep sea.
The Fallen werewolf's roars and menacing pressure were like the tantrums of a misbehaving child to him.
He confirmed the foul stench in the air, then calmly said, "You ate your own kind. Death penalty."
With that, he turned and left.
No matter how unwilling or full of resentment the Fallen werewolf behind him was, he did not care.
The captured Fallen werewolves would be punished according to their crimes. These were his busiest few days, but after resolving his feelings, he still managed to find time to visit that female during lunchtime.
Glancing at the time, it was almost her shift's end.
"Manager Qin, the next one is severely injured but did not eat his kind. Please confirm."
Qin Ming said indifferently, "I have other matters to attend to now."
With that, he left the prison.
Blue Tail... was a very timid female werewolf. He had never encountered such a fragile female. If she called him and heard the roars and resentment of these Fallen werewolves from the prison, she would be afraid.
"This..." Seeing Qin Ming leave without turning back, the werewolf staff member was dazed for a moment. Hearing the roars, howls, and clattering of iron chains echoing from the cells, he shuddered.
It would be a lie to say he was not afraid of the Fallen werewolves, especially with dozens of them captured in this level of the prison.
No wonder he was Manager Qin. Facing those terrifying, ferocious Fallen werewolves, he was always poker-faced and unruffled.
But now, the most important thing... wasn't dealing with these Fallen werewolves?
What could be more important than this?
He didn't quite understand.
"Roar... You deserve to die! Traitors! You deserve to die!"
"I'll devour your flesh and blood! Eat your mates! Your cubs!"
"Let me out! Roar!!!"
The young werewolf staff member shuddered, turning to look at the Fallen werewolves locked in the iron cells. He sighed, shaking his head, "Look at your hideous appearance now. It's such a pity, you were all cute cubs once."
Outside, Qin Ming checked his phone, his brow furrowed slightly. Seeing no message from her, had she not gotten off work yet?
He was about to call when he heard the urgent shouts from the prison, "Manager Qin! A Fallen werewolf has escaped!!!"
"Quick, call Manager Qin!"
Qin Ming's ears twitched, and in the next second, his figure vanished from the spot, running at blinding speed like a phantom. After handling the situation, he washed his hands, intending to take out his phone, but was called away again.
When he finally had time, he found that Blue Tail had not contacted him.
This was very unusual. Normally, she would have sent him several messages in advance.
Recalling her recent attempts to keep her distance, as if drawing a firm boundary, Qin Ming felt uncertain. If this had happened before, he would have been pleased to see her growth.
But...
After nearly losing her and the immense panic and pain he felt, he realized that Blue Tail was special to him.
After careful consideration, he confirmed that unknowingly, in the course of his protection, he had developed feelings for this female werewolf who was always crying, fragile, and dependent on him.
Having reached this conclusion, Qin Ming planned to act. When a matter arose, it had to be dealt with, not left unattended. He intended to tell Blue Tail his current thoughts today.
How she would respond could be discussed.
They could work it out.
Considering how busy he was now, perhaps this was not a good time to bring it up.
He probably smelled of the Fallen werewolves, didn't he? Perhaps her urging him to leave today was also for this reason? He had not considered it thoroughly enough.
He would find her after finishing his work to discuss it in person.
At Nanfeng Courtyard, after washing up before bed, Blue Tail checked her phone, but there were no messages.
It seemed there was nothing important after all.
Of course, what importance could she hold for him?
Blue Tail lowered her eyes, striving to conceal her disappointment, and forced herself to sleep early.
The second day.
The third day.
She did not see Qin Ming. Only on the fourth night did she receive a text from him, asking if she was unwell anywhere.
