Chapter 2197: Chapter 2199: Jiang Nuan vs. Fu Yi

She was afraid that Jiang Nuan would get angry and threaten to arrest her, so she quickly explained, "This is how we handle stolen items. We take the money and throw the rest in the dump. It’s not targeted at you..."

Destroying the evidence so they wouldn’t get caught, who knew she was unlucky. The people at the airport usually don’t bother with foreign luggage, but for some reason, this time they decided to help and found the surveillance videos... Damn, what bad luck!

She rolled her eyes, had a stroke of genius, "How about you let me go, and I’ll try to help you find it. Let’s just call it even?"

Finding it was impossible, but she saw these two weren’t local Mahali people. As long as they let her go, she could just lay low for a few days and come back once the heat died down.

"Little sister..."

Her plan was all set, but unfortunately, she ran into Jiang Nuan. Jiang Nuan didn’t even look at her and directly asked the police officer beside her, "Hello, can we still find my friend’s passport?"

A few young officers exchanged glances, and the female officer responsible for communicating with her shrugged and said, "I don’t think we can retrieve it. There are so many thieves around here, she didn’t lie to you. These people like to throw unwanted stolen items into dumps to burn. We’ve encountered many similar cases, and unfortunately, we’ve never recovered a lost item. I’m very sorry, Doctor Jiang."

Jiang Nuan took a deep breath, then turned to look at the man beside her, looking dejected and asking in a disappointed tone, "The passport can’t be retrieved, what should we do?"

He didn’t seem to care about losing his things, "If it can’t be found, it can’t be found."

Jiang Nuan was a bit angry, "You need a passport to stay in a hotel and buy a plane ticket. Aren’t you at all anxious that it’s lost?"

Fu Yi suddenly placed his hand on top of her head, looking down lazily. His voice was like summer mint, coolly calming people’s irritation, "Isn’t there still you? With you around, I won’t end up on the streets."

"..."

Jiang Nuan’s ears turned a shade of crimson, and the anger that had risen in her chest was instantly extinguished. She didn’t know where to look.

Was he... flirting with her?

Jiang Nuan not only felt her ears heating up but her face too, lowering her eyes and mumbling, "We’re at least considered friends. As long as I’m in Mahali, I wouldn’t let you end up on the streets."

The five words "at least considered friends" successfully made Fu Yi chuckle, a corner of his thin lips curling up slightly, looking like a smile but clearly differing from one.

Heh, very good!

At least considered friends.

At least he wasn’t kicked out of the friend zone into being a stranger. He should be happy, not mad, definitely not holding it against her.

He inhaled a breath, but his chest was still annoyingly heavy.

At least friends...

The passport had already been lost, and even if Jiang Nuan was angry, she couldn’t get it back. After a simple discussion with the police, the woman who stole it was handed over to the police, and their record was temporarily canceled.

After a day of running around without finding the passport, Jiang Nuan felt exhausted when she got home. After changing into slippers, she was the first to enter the door.

Fu Yi finally came to her turf, but as a local, she couldn’t even find the passport, which made her feel a bit embarrassed.

Jiang Nuan took out two bottles of water from the fridge, tossed one to the man following her inside, lowered her face and said softly, "You’ll probably need to stay with me for a few more days. It’s too late today, tomorrow I’ll take a day off and we’ll go to the embassy to get you a replacement passport."
