Possessive & Addicted: The CEO Could Never Let Her Go

Actually, Firebird can’t really be considered Mu Anhan’s ex.

They never officially started, so how could there be talk of exes?

The confusion of adolescence has become the emotion for the rest of their lives.

”Hurry up, hurry up!” Xue Xiangtong urged her, ”You and our captain have a very similar perspective on the case; we’re just waiting for your orders.”

Mu Anhan knocked on the door and went in.

Miao Feishuang watched the door close and said to Xue Xiangtong, ”Han Han and the captain have such great chemistry?”

”Only on the case, they don’t interact privately,” Xue Xiangtong replied immediately, ”You know, Mr. Gu is very petty; you mustn’t let him overthink things.”

Miao Feishuang didn’t understand; shouldn’t Gu Xiaozhan be furious over the incident with the candy yesterday?

Why is Mu Anhan still so happy today?

Even Miao Feishuang couldn’t figure it out.

In the office.

Firebird nodded at Mu Anhan as she came in, ”Nothing happened, right?”

”No.” Mu Anhan smiled warmly, ”You don’t have to worry; Xiao Zhan treats me really well.”

Firebird was silent.

Of course, he knew that over the years, Gu Xiaozhan cherished her deeply, but his iron-fisted approach also made her completely compliant.

He always thought this wasn’t the kind of love Mu Anhan wanted.

She surely wanted a free and unfettered love, not one that’s restrained.

But what grounds does he have to question her love?

Mu Anhan took out a notebook, ”I made some notes; take a look.”

Firebird looked at her elegant handwriting and listened as she said, ”So far, there have been four targets with deliberate actions. The first target, Yang Lili, was punished because she was kept as a mistress, violating ethical standards as a teacher.”

”The second target, Tang Xiaomiao, profited from views by binge eating in front of audiences, only to purge afterward. The third target, Chen Zhimei, was punished for laziness due to relying on her parents, and the fourth, Su Zixin, a nurse, was punished for ingratiating herself with the wealthy and being arrogant toward the poor... bringing forth key words from these four people...”

Firebird continued, ”Yang Lili represents lust, Tang Xiaomiao represents gluttony, Chen Zhimei represents sloth, Su Zixin represents pride.”

The two looked at each other; though unspoken, there was a commonality—they each committed one of the Seven Deadly Sins.

Which means there might be three more targets who are next victims.

With such a broad audience, there’s no telling who the killer aims to murder next.

”There’s still wrath, greed, and envy that haven’t shown up yet,” Mu Anhan nodded, ”This isn’t a good sign; Captain, why did you take on this hot potato?”

Firebird stared at her, ”Whether or not I take it on, such a demon should be caught and not let go.”

”Zhao Sixue is an exception,” Mu Anhan firmly believed this, ”Yang Lili is still a breakthrough point. I plan to meet Chen Yanyan today.”

Firebird nodded, ”The press conference from Zhang Shishi clarified the situation; she’s not the university student involved. But she was decent enough not to mention the name Chen Yanyan at the press conference. I’ve already sent people to follow Chen Yanyan, but chances for her to be approached are slim.”

Mu Anhan pondered slightly, ”Could Chen Yanyan be tied to greed?”

”It’s possible!” Firebird agreed.

”I’ll go check this out myself!” Mu Anhan immediately headed outside.
