A forensic doctor is reborn, sir, please don't bully me!

Chapter 176 Proposal?

Xiang Yuntian had already walked to within about a meter of her when he naturally stopped.

“That’s right, you’ve said that to me before, more than once.”

“I remember it very clearly. At that time, I was still an inexperienced forensic doctor. You told me that the first thing to do was to learn to befriend the corpses.”

"But why do you say that? Is it because you've been forcing yourself to deal with them? Is it because deep down you don't like this job? To put it bluntly, it's like offering your warm face to a cold backside."

"That's not how it works."

Although Bai Mengfei verbally refuted this, she unconsciously turned her head away.

But deep down, she felt that Xiang Yuntian's words made some sense, and she even had to admit that it might be true.

However, she remains dedicated to the profession of forensic pathologist, as she believes she has a natural talent for it.

Just then, Xiang Yuntian continued, "I don't know why you're unwilling to give up. Is it because you're the kind of person who sticks to one path no matter what? Is it because you've wanted to do this job since you were in school, which is why you've persisted until now?"

"Even so, so what?" Bai Mengfei retorted.

"If that's the case, then you've left yourself with no choice, but that's not the choice you should be making right now."

Xiang Yuntian replied, "Heaven gave you a second chance, isn't it hoping you can live a different life?"

As Bai Mengfei listened, she gradually realized that what Xiang Yuntian said made sense, and she couldn't help but wonder if she should really give up this profession.

But she herself was also confused. If she gave up her job as a forensic doctor, what else could she do?

Just as she was lost in thought, Xiang Yuntian suddenly approached and said, "Marry me, and let me take care of you."

"What?" Bai Mengfei exclaimed in surprise.

She never expected that Xiang Yuntian would propose to her at this time; she was completely unprepared.

What is their relationship at this moment?

They were just friends or colleagues, nothing more than ordinary relationships with no hint of romance.

In Bai Mengfei's mind, shouldn't one fall in love before getting married?

Just as Bai Mengfei was filled with doubt, Xiang Yuntian's gaze became increasingly solemn.

Bai Mengfei could tell from his eyes that he was serious and not joking.

This left Bai Mengfei even more at a loss, completely unsure of how to respond.

Just as Bai Mengfei was struggling with her decision, Xiang Yuntian said again, "Trust me, I will definitely take good care of you."

Just as Bai Mengfei was pondering how to respond, Wang Tian suddenly walked in, breaking the delicate atmosphere.

As soon as Wang Tian came in, she said, "Forensic Doctor Xiang, do you have a copy of the autopsy report you gave Fanghua forensic doctor? If so, could you give it to me? I need to take a look at it now..."

In the end, she noticed the distance between Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian and seemed to realize something.

But she didn't know what to do for a moment.

The three remained silent for a while before Wang Tian came to her senses and asked softly, "I'm sorry, did I disturb you?"

"No, you've come at the perfect time."

Bai Mengfei quickly changed the subject, turning around as she said, "You two chat, I'm going out for some fresh air."

After saying that, Bai Mengfei put her hands in her pockets and walked out.

In fact, her heart was burning hot at that moment, and she could clearly feel it herself.

Thinking about what Xiang Yuntian had just said, her thoughts became somewhat chaotic, and she even involuntarily thought about the distant future.

She wondered to herself if she would regret it later if she didn't agree today.

But what's done is done, and perhaps it was all fate's arrangement, so she decided to stop thinking about it.

She walked alone down the long stairwell, her mind wandering back to the current case.

She always felt that the murderer was likely not the woman's boyfriend, but someone else entirely.

But the only way to convince Zhao Fei, Xiang Yuntian, and the others of his deduction is to conduct an investigation himself.

So she decided to go back and contact the woman's boyfriend.

She went to the police officer in charge of the case and said to him, "Give me the contact information of the deceased woman's boyfriend."

After hearing this, the policeman looked conflicted and frowned, saying, "Uh, isn't this against the rules?"

"What's wrong with the regulations? I'm a forensic doctor and a public official. I just wanted to conduct a routine investigation. Do I have to call Captain Zhao to talk to you?"

They all knew Bai Mengfei's position in the police station; it was quite important.

So the policeman was sensible and eventually gave Bai Mengfei the information about the deceased woman's boyfriend.

Bai Mengfei took the documents and carefully examined the table, which read:

Name: Lü You; Gender: Male; Age: 26; Height: 176cm; Company: Currently the CEO of a company...

The form also includes a mobile phone number and Lü You's home address.

So Bai Mengfei went to the police station and dialed Lü You's number directly.

"Hello, who is this?" Lu You's voice on the other end of the phone was weak, sounding like she had been crying for a long time.

Bai Mengfei was silent for a moment before saying, "Hello, I am a public official in charge of handling your girlfriend's case. My name is Bai Mengfei, and you can call me Forensic Doctor Bai."

"Oh, it's forensic doctor Luo."

Lu You's voice carried a hint of a bitter smile: "May I ask what brings you here?"

"I heard that you saw your girlfriend before she passed away, and that you even had an argument with her, is that right?" Bai Mengfei asked intentionally.

Lu You said, "So you also suspect that I killed someone? If you have evidence, just arrest me. I don't care."

He took a deep breath at the end.

Bai Mengfei quickly explained, "No, it's just that almost everyone suspects you, which is why I asked that question."

"Hmm, and then?" Lü You asked.

Bai Mengfei was silent for a while before continuing, "And then, I actually believe you now. In your girlfriend's case, I was in charge of 'investigating the scene' and obtained some physical evidence from it."

"So among the evidence you've collected, is there anything that can prove her death is related to me?"

When Lü You said this, his tone was not very excited, but rather unusually calm, with a hint of a bitter smile.

Bai Mengfei thought that it was almost time to get off work, and if Xiang Yuntian saw her, she didn't know what he would say.

So she made a request to Lü You: "Mr. Lü, I think we should arrange to meet somewhere and talk again?"
