Love Comes After Marriage novel Chapter 869

Li Jin was especially tall, strong and muscular. Unlike Mo Ting, he didn't have the presence of a king; he didn't have the same majesty and dominance. Instead, he was so cold that he made it hard for people to breathe and made them too afraid to say a word.

The name Li Jin sounded like it belonged to a prince from the ancient dynasties. But, the real person still fit the name well.

Lin Qian was sitting in Li Jin's car, but even at this point, she had no idea where she found the courage to board it.

"I...I don't want to waste too much of your time. Let's just chat in the car," Lin Qian said in a slightly reserved manner. She was cautious; if Li Jin stretched out his hand, he could easily snap her neck.

"I don't like it when people talk business in my car. It's too distracting," Li Jin refused.

Lin Qian froze and did not say another word.

The vibe in the car was suddenly icy cold. Lin Qian cleared her throat and tried to find a topic of conversation, but quickly realized that Li Jin had no desire to talk to her.

This was the second man that had ever made her too afraid to even take a deep breath. The first one was Mo Ting.

Of course, compared to Li Jin, Mo Ting was a lot more dangerous. Perhaps, because of Li Jin's occupation, Lin Qian felt a lot more safe around him.

Not long after, the two arrived at a restaurant. As soon as they sat down, Lin Qian asked, "Can I speak now?"

Li Jin sat down opposite Lin Qian, and straightened his shirt, "Go ahead."

"I feel like you know something else that you haven't told me..."

"The surveillance footage I gave you is everything that's related to the incident," Li Jin replied, "I'm sorry."

Lin Qian was extremely embarrassed. Couldn't this man be more gentle with his words? Must he talk to a woman like he was training someone in the army?

"However, I zoomed into the footage and noticed that Luo Sheng's black Porsche was almost out of gas. It shouldn't have more than 30km left on it. Also, the culprit had no choice but to drive outside of the city to avoid surveillance cameras. So, if my prediction is right, the culprit definitely stopped at a service station near Black Water Bend. If not, the car would have been abandoned around there."

After hearing this, Lin Qian immediately nodded her head, "The police thought that way too, but they didn't find anything."

"If the culprit didn't abandon the car nor stop at a service station, there's one more possibility. The culprit drove the car back to his home or to a familiar place. Check if anyone from the entertainment industry lives in the area. I'm sure you'll discover something."

The police had not considered this possibility.

So, Lin Qian couldn't help but sigh. People from the military were indeed different.

Just as Lin Qian was about to thank Li Jin, his phone began to ring..

Li Jin grabbed his phone and stepped outside to answer it. After he returned, he said to Lin Qian, "I'm sorry, something suddenly came up. I'll take you home first."

"It's fine. I can leave on my own," Lin Qian shook her hands.

"No, I'll take you," Li Jin insisted.

So, Lin Qian had no choice but to say, "Fine, if you must, then take me to my agency. It's not too far from here."

Lin Qian understood that Li Jin had a special identity and needed to leave. Either way, she didn't know how she was to converse with him for an entire meal anyway; she would have frozen to death from his coldness.

Afterwards, Li Jin didn't say another word until they were back on the road and almost at Lin Qian's agency, "My mother showed me your photo before..."
