Chen Yuncheng was silent for a while and said, "This is different." He picked up the two empty lunch boxes on the ground and threw them in the trash can.

Just two steps away, Chen Yuncheng received a call from Long Zhanyu.

Long Zhanyu seemed to be very busy, and told him in a hurried tone, "Zhou Yan's case should be tried next week."

Chen Yuncheng was a little surprised: "So soon?" He thought it would take at least half a year.

Long Zhanyu said: "The accomplices who stole the vehicle have been tried here, and the case file can be directly copied over there; as for the intentional homicide, he surrendered himself and explained the facts of the crime very completely. So the case is done quickly." After speaking, Long Zhanyu didn't have time to listen to him continue talking, and only said: "I have something to do, hang up."

Chen Yuncheng didn't even have time to say thank you, when he heard the voice ending the call on the phone.

He couldn't help turning his head to look at Guan Anlin.

Guan Anlin was still enjoying his after-dinner cigarette, looking up at him: "What's wrong?"

Chen Yuncheng said: "Zhou Yan's case will be tried next week."

Guan Anlin said in a cold tone: "Oh," and then added, "It's good to have the trial earlier."

Chen Yuncheng walked to the trash can and threw away the two lunch boxes. Looking back, he saw Guan Anlin still squatting in front of the store smoking, so he walked behind a pillar and called Ning Junyan.

Ning Junyan was not on duty tonight. When he answered the phone, he was very quiet and called out in a deep voice, "Yuncheng."

Chen Yuncheng said, "Where are you?"

Ning Junyan answered him: "You're still in the hospital and haven't gotten off work. Miss me?"

The corners of Chen Yuncheng's mouth could not help but turn up slightly, and said, "I miss you."

Ning Junyan said, "Then I'll pick you up."

Chen Yuncheng replied, "Okay."

When he came back to Guan Anlin's side, Chen Yuncheng looked down at him and said, "I'm going out tonight."

Guan Anlin raised his head, frowned and looked at him for a while, and finally said, "Try to borrow money from him."

Chen Yuncheng did not answer.

Sitting on the bed in Ning Junyan's bedroom, Chen Yuncheng stretched out his hand and pulled the iron chain on the head of the bed and shook it gently. Now that he saw the pair of handcuffs, he had no idea. He also knew that Ning Junyan had ordered a collar for him and put it in the drawer of the bedside table, alongside the previous engagement ring.

Whether or not to wear these things is just fun for Chen Yuncheng to get used to. Ning Junyan will not force him, nor will he hurt him.

When Chen Yuncheng complained about his sore shoulders, Ning Junyan would patiently massage his shoulders, and then remove the handcuffs from the chain next time, letting Chen Yuncheng wrap his hands around his head and hug his shoulders.

Ning Junyan came out of the bathroom, without clothes, went to bed and hugged Chen Yuncheng and kissed him.

Chen Yuncheng hugged Ning Junyan, coveting his gentleness and being a little absent-minded.

Ning Junyan asked him, "What's wrong?"

Chen Yuncheng said: "Zhou Yan's case will be tried in court next week."

Ning Junyan lay on the bed, let Chen Yuncheng rest on his shoulder, and gently touched his face and neck with his fingers, "Do you want to listen?"

Chen Yuncheng said: "I'm going, and I also told his girlfriend that when the time comes, he will pick them up and take the children with them."

Ning Junyan asked, "Can children be brought into court?"

Chen Yuncheng looked up at him, "I don't know."

Ning Junyan pinched Chen Yuncheng's earlobe with his fingers and rubbed it, Chen Yuncheng raised his head slightly and took the initiative to kiss his lips.

When the lips parted, Ning Junyan said to Chen Yuncheng, "I'll go with you."

Chapter 74

Zhou Yan's court date starts at 10 a.m. Wednesday. Before that, Chen Yuncheng needed to pick up Gu Yaojia first, and then it took nearly two hours to drive to the court. If they don't want to leave in the early morning, they have to drive to Gu Yaojia's hometown the day before, stay for one night, and pick up Gu Yaojia the next morning.

It doesn't matter how Chen Yuncheng arranges it, but Ning Junyan's time is too precious. In order to accompany him to the court hearing, he specially adjusted his duty and took annual leave.

When think about it, seem to be a little sorry for Ning Junyan. For Zhou Yan's affairs, Ning Junyan has accompanied him several times, but Chen Yuncheng couldn't help but want to rely on Ning Junyan. Probably because there were too few people he could rely on from childhood to adulthood, and at this time, he especially hoped that Ning Junyan could accompany him.

The departure time on Tuesday was a bit later than expected, because Ning Junyan was on duty last night and encountered an emergency operation just before dawn, which delayed a morning.

It was only in the afternoon that Ning Junyan drove over to pick up Chen Yuncheng.

Chen Yuncheng was explaining something to Wu Xiaozhu in the store, and when he saw Ning Junyan arrived, he immediately said, "Wait for me for two minutes." Then he got into the room to pack up.

Guan Anlin was sitting on a small chair in front of the store playing mobile games. When he saw Ning Junyan coming, he stood up and walked towards him.

Chen Yuncheng simply packed some things and carried a small backpack. He went out and packed a few bottles of mineral water in plastic bags. He carried his things and walked outside the store, and saw Guan Anlin talking to Ning Junyan, but when he approached , Guan Anlin didn't say anything, just said to him: "Be careful on the road."

"What are you talking about?" Chen Yuncheng asked suspiciously.

Guan Anlin said, "I asked him if he wanted to smoke a cigarette, but he didn't seem to be in good spirits."

Hearing this, Chen Yuncheng turned to look at Ning Junyan, and saw that he looked really haggard. He was on duty last night and got up in the early morning for emergency surgery. He must be very tired by now.

"I'll drive," Chen Yuncheng said to Ning Junyan.

Ning Junyan did not refuse this time, nodded and said, "I'll sleep for a while."

Chen Yuncheng drove out of the city on the expressway. Ning Junyan put down the back of the co-pilot's seat and lay on his back to catch up on sleep in the car.

There was soothing music playing in the car, and Chen Yuncheng kept the sound very low, not wanting to disturb Ning Junyan's sleep. He remembered the last time he and Ning Junyan drove to Zhou Yan's hometown. That time, Ning Junyan drove the whole journey. He slept in the car for a long time. At that time, they were not together, and he was still full of hope. Zhou Yan was successfully retrieved.
