Chapter 371 The emotional debt left by my mother? ??

Qiu Jun looked at the girl who was acting suspiciously with amusement, bent down in a very cooperative manner, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong? Tell me what happened, and I'll help you."

"Nothing happened. I just wanted to ask if our bureau chief is married yet?" She felt something was off about the bureau chief's expression just now.

Could this be a debt of gratitude her mother owed from the past?

Qiu Jun was taken aback, then nodded and shook his head: "We were married, but it wasn't even three years before my sister-in-law divorced the bureau chief. She used to work at the Cultural Bureau, and it seems she was transferred to Guangdong Province after the divorce."

"Yes, we've been married. It's good that we've been married!" Bai Nuo immediately felt relieved.

If she doesn't get married because of her mother, that would be... awkward!

"Yes, but I heard from my master that the bureau chief didn't want to get married at first, but his grandmother kept pressuring him, so he had no choice but to agree to a blind date. Unexpectedly, they got divorced a few years later. Now the bureau chief doesn't come home much and lives in our family compound with his daughter."

"So the bureau chief has a daughter!" Bai Nuo had only been here for a few years and was unaware of these details.

"Yes, but she's not her biological daughter. She's the daughter of one of the bureau chief's old comrades. His comrade-in-arms was killed in action, and his wife couldn't bear it and committed suicide. No one in the family wanted the girl, and they even abused her. When the bureau chief heard about it, he was so angry that he ran a long way to take the child back and registered her under his own name. He was afraid that the family would come back to cause trouble for the child in the future, so he changed the child's surname."

Upon hearing this, Bai Nuo's playful expression faded, and she nodded with a slight frown: "I see."

"Yes, the little girl is very cute and well-behaved. She goes to the textile factory kindergarten next to our branch office during the day, and she comes over during holidays. She even helps with sweeping and chores. You'll see her when she has another holiday."

"Okay, then I'll bring her some delicious food." Bai Nuo nodded with a grin, her eyes filled with anticipation.

"Okay, I reckon you two will get along well!" Qiu Jun nodded with a smile.

When Bai Nuo first arrived, many people in the bureau were a bit reserved around her. After all, in their eyes, it was normal for this newcomer, Bai Ke, to be a staff member of the Criminal Investigation Technology Section at such a young age and a specially appointed technician.

But after getting to know her, you'll find that she's a lively and lovely young woman who never looks down on her colleagues because of her position, and she's not the kind of spoiled and willful girl. Especially among the criminal investigation team, quite a few people have already come to like this new girl in a short period of time.

Qiu Jun felt the same way. Every time he saw Bai Nuo, he felt like he was seeing his own little sister. He always wanted to be more accommodating and doting on her, just to make the little girl happy.

With nothing much going on at the bureau and the case submitted, it was no longer under the jurisdiction of their criminal investigation department. Bai Nuo decided to leave work early, go home to her family compound to change her clothes, and then go back to school.

Before anyone could even move, the only phone on the captain's desk rang. Two minutes later, the captain's expression turned cold, and then he waved his hand dismissively.

"Alright, everyone stop resting, let's get some work done!"
