On The Day Of My 100th Blind Date, I Arrested My Date

Chapter 8

However, what should come will come ultimately.

Chen Yan, who had not been home for two days and one night, was standing at the door, trembling with fear.

What should he say when he enters the door?

“Mom, it’s not my fault. That woman is a criminal. I can’t live with myself if I don’t arrest her!” Or something like that?

…

Nothing could save him now.

No matter how Chen Yan thought about it, he felt like he would die.

Kacha.

He braced himself and opened the door.

Forget it, it’s just a beating. It’s not like he hadn’t been beaten up before!

“Mom, I’m back.”

On the sofa, Yu Huizhen sat upright on the sofa, quietly watching the television with a feather duster in her hand.

Chen Yan did not understand why there was still a feather duster at home when he had already transmigrated.

Could it be that this thing had also transmigrated with him?

It really was his nemesis since young.

Yu Huizhen did not react to Chen Yan’s words at all. She simply stared straight at the television, expressionless.

Old Chen was sitting in the corner of the sofa. His back was straight as if he was standing in a military posture. He was also staring straight at the television, not reacting at all to Chen Yan’s return.

It was over!

Chen Yan’s heart skipped a beat.

With his father’s status in front of his mother, although the former did not dare to disobey his mother, he could at least throw a glance at him or give him an idea of the situation. His father could even try to make peace and plead for mercy on his behalf sometimes.

Judging from his father’s current posture though, he had definitely been given a lesson by his mother.

Looking at the scene again, Chen Yan’s heart sank to the bottom of his stomach.

Monica was sitting obediently next to his father and was quietly watching the television as well, motionless.

Although Chen Yan didn’t understand why a dog would stare at the television, the seriousness of the matter had clearly entered the category of red alert.

In Chen Yan’s family, the status of the members was such: His mother, Monica, his father, and lastly, him.

His mother treated Monica like her own child, pampering it like the apple of her eye.

Usually, Monica would be arrogantly barking at him in his mother’s arms.

To think it was also standing in the military posture today.

It was over for him. Nothing could save him now.

“Mom!” Chen Yan’s eyes flickered and he thought of a plan, “What are you doing… Ouch!”

Chen Yan, who had just taken off his police uniform, let out a gasp of pain and sat on the ground with his hands on his hips.

“Son?” Old Chen was the most alert. The minute he saw that something was wrong, he immediately rushed over, “What happened to you? Are you injured?”

Woof, woof, woof!

Monica was also a smart girl.

It got out of its military posture as soon as Old Chen did so and its tail shook as it followed over.

“Dad!” Chen Yan bared his teeth and hissed in pain twice, “I’m fine. Yesterday, I was dealing with a case that was about offering prostitution services online that involved 30 million yuan. I didn’t sleep all night.”

Chen Yan emphasized the 30 million yuan.

Holding Old Chen’s arm, Chen Yan, who was ‘barely’ standing, sneaked a glance at his mother before continuing, “And I solved another murder case by myself today. I’ve been busy all day, so I’m just a little tired.”

This time, Chen Yan deliberately emphasized the words ‘myself’ and ‘murder case’.

Of course, Chen Yan didn’t mention that the case was one of dismemberment and wife-killing in fear that these details would make the old couple to have insomnia.

Here, their good soon hadn’t slept for two days and one night, and had solved two major cases!

Where could they find such a good police officer?

Sure enough, when she heard about the murder case, Yu Huizhen’s expression changed. She put the feather duster in her hand to the side.

Chen Yan secretly heaved a sigh of relief. The crisis had been alleviated.

Old Chen secretly winked at Chen Yan. He even secretly gave him a thumbs up.

Woof, woof, woof, woof, woof, woof!

Monica’s barks were filled with joy and pride.

Although Monica usually relied on Yu Huizhen’s support to bully Old Chen and Xiao Chen oftentimes, it was quite a smart dog. At this time, it knew that only if Chen Yan passed the test would it have a good life.

Bang, bang!

“Come over!”

With two muffled sounds and an order, the coldness in the living room finally dissipated.

Chen Yan knew that his mother was not talking to him.

As expected, the dog understood.

Monica lifted its head and dashed onto the sofa, crawling into Yu Huizhen’s arms and resting its little head comfortably on its master’s right arm.

“Hmph! Our baby son has grown up I see. Solving a murder case by himself? He even solved a 30 million prostitution case… Chen Yan, why don’t you change your surname? Don’t be surnamed Chen now, change it to Sherlock Holmes. From now on, you’ll be called Sherlock Holmes Yan. How about it?”

Hearing his mother say so much in one breath, Chen Yan’s eyes lit up. It was as if his waist was no longer sore as he darted to Yu Huizhen.

“Mom… do you even hear yourself? Your son doesn’t have such great abilities,” Chen Yan knelt beside his mother. He clenched his large fist and gently massaged his mother’s legs.

“If you didn’t arrange for me to go on a blind date yesterday and send Miss “leather pants” to me, where would your son go to arrest someone and solve a huge case that involved 30 million yuan?”

Flattery would never fail.

“Thanks to this case, the team said that I would be promoted to be an official policeman next week, and I’ll also be getting quite a sum of monetary reward,” Chen Yan smiled slyly and continued, “My captain has even said that I would get an individual third-class merit for the murder case that was solved today!”

Yu Huizhen was not angry with Chen Yan.

She was angry at her friends in the blind date chat group.

She was also angry at herself. To find a pretty one for her son, all she cared about had been the other party’s looks.

But then again, how could she have known what the woman was doing behind their backs?

She had thought that she was finding a high-class elite for her son, a good girl that was tall, smart, and sharp-eyed.

In the end, it turned out to be a high-class “masseur”.

Fortunately, his son had sharp eyes. Otherwise, if he were to take the girl as his wife, how could she live on in the future?

However, as the mother in the family who had the highest status, how could she have made a mistake?

“You brat, if you wanted to arrest her, you should’ve waited. Why’d you had to arrest your blind date on the scene? How are you going to go on blind dates in the future?”

This matter had spread throughout her chat group of friends.

The lady who had introduced Miss “leather pants” to Yu Huizhen had undergone a social death of embarrassment and hadn’t come online since.

However, Yu Huizhen did not feel good either.

“@Handsome’s Mother: You’ve really given birth to a good son, an outstanding police officer!”

“@Handsome’s Mother: Your son is not bad and is indeed quite handsome. Let’s private message each other later. My second sister’s daughter is still single. I’ll introduce her to you. Don’t worry, although her looks are ordinary, her background is clean!”

…

That’s right, Yu Huizhen’s nickname online was “Handsome’s Mother”.

Yu Huizhen did not know if her friends in the chat group were sincerely praising her son, but for Chen Yan to have arrested his blind date at the scene was definitely the only big news today in the city’s blind date circle!

Chen Yan scratched his head. He hadn’t thought so much about the consequences at that time.

Police catching criminals was like cats catching mice.

It was instinctive.

“Mom, don’t worry. It won’t happen again.”

“There’s going to be a next time?”

“Ah! No, no, no, I mean there won’t be a next time! There won’t…”

At the dining table.

“Son, try the ribs. I stewed them for the whole afternoon. Eat this artichoke. Since you didn’t sleep last night, you should eat more artichoke…”

Chen Yan didn’t expect his mother to prepare such a sumptuous dinner.

“Mom, I’m already full, stop putting food into my bowl… Dad, you should eat too,” Saying this, Chen Yan gave Old Chen a piece of the pork ribs.

Pa!

The pork ribs were snatched away by Yu Huizhen, “Why are you eating the ribs? Old people should eat less meat!”

Old Chen, “…”

He was just 61 years old, and he’s already old?

“Son, didn’t you say that you’re on holiday tomorrow?” Yu Huizhen gave Chen Yan another piece of stewed beef, “I found another girl for you this afternoon. It’s just nice that you can go and meet her tomorrow.”

Chen Yan, “…”

Again?

He had already seen a hundred girls now and had even sent the last one into jail.

There was going to be a 101st?

This can’t do, he had to try to argue his way out of the matter.

“Mom, I’ve already seen a hundred, do I still have to go tomorrow…”

It was clear Chen Yan did not understand the situation. He thought that he would have some status at home because he had solved some cases.

Unfortunately, reality told Chen Yan that he was dreaming.

“Son, what did you say just now? I didn’t hear it clearly!” Yu Huizhen frowned slightly. She looked at Chen Yan and glanced at the feather duster in the corner.

“Huh? Mom, I didn’t say anything. I said I’ll sleep well tonight and go on the blind date tomorrow!”

“That’s more like it…” Yu Huizhen smiled in satisfaction. She picked up a piece of meat and gave it to Chen Yan again, “That’s my good son. Come, have some meat.”

Chen Yan, “…”

Old Chen, “…”

Monica, “Woof, woof, woof!”
