We'll be talking a break from the Xia Yao - Yuan Zong cp for a few chapters and move on to our supporting cp Wang Zhi Shui - Xuan Da Yu.

***********

Time flew by so quickly that it was already mid October, Zhang Tian has been discharged from hospital with only a faint scar on his face. The cast on Xia Yao's arm has been taken off, despite this, he still had to remain in office for his arm has not completely healed yet.

Xia Yao is naturally white, and now that he was restricted within the office, especially in winter time, he could not get any whiter.

Meanwhile, Zhang Tian spends his whole day complaining about the unfairness of it all.

"Look at my face you guys, it has been destroyed, how am I supposed to find a girlfriend now?"

Xiao Hui laughed, "Whether someone loves you or not doesn't have anything to do with your looks, just look at Xia Yao, this pretty and still a confirmed bachelor?"

Xia Yao sat to one side organizing documents while pretending not to notice.

As Xiao Hui said so, Zhang Tian felt another wave of injustice.

"Urgh! It's so frustrating how some people have it all while some have nothing. Can somebody please explain to me why while I have this ugly scar on my face, he gets more handsome everyday?! Just a few days before my discharge, he was still wearing a tired sleepless face, but what do we have now, he looks positively succulent!" Zhang Tian pinched Xia Yao's cheeks.

Xia Yao grin lopsidedly, taking this chance to advertise.

"A sexy woman can be compared to a piece of art; a perfect gentleman is also appreciated in modern time; taking care of a man's skin is equivalent to loving a woman's senses."

"Tsk tsk, just listen to you." Xiao Hui smirked in Zhang Tian's direction, "Try to beat that."

Zhang Tian halted for a while, hand smoothing over his face whilst making an exaggerated expression.

"Well, mine is a face that has endured through the toughest storms in life!"

This comment made Xiao Hui burst out in laughter, "Did you hear that? This is exactly the difference between a handsome rich man and an ugly poor man."

Just as the three were chatting happily, they received an order from their commander to prepare for a mission. Zhang Tian and Xiao Hui put on their uniform and left, leaving Xia Yao all alone in the office with nothing to do.

Xia Yao picked up a bag of junk food in boredom and was munching away when Xuan Da Yu rang.

"Hey little devil, guess who I dreamt of last night."

"Who?"

"I dreamt that I finally caught that Wang Zhi Shui."

Xia Yao laughed, "And then what?"

"And then I hired a bunch of rough men to rape that arse of his."

A few lines of surprise appeared on Xia Yao's forehead, "Look at you thinking up evil plans."

Xuan Da Yu laughed hehe, "I have only one wish right now, if I catch that thief, I will use money to hire some gays who makes a living by doing that thing, I'll have them rape him until his ass blooms!"

"Can we please not talk about asses?" Xia Yao said frustratingly, "I'm eating you know?!"

"Why are you eating?"

"Greengage."

Xuan Da Yu replied, "Listen to me, refrain from eating too much of that will you. If you eat too much you'll get constipated. Last time I ate two bags, the result? Constipated for two whole days, I can still remember the burn in my ass during those two days."

"Would you stop? Xia Yao glared.

Xuan Da Yu laughed ha ha.

The two friends chatted for a while until Xia Ya received a call from his boss and therefore had to hang up first.

Half an hour later, as Xia Yao was returning to office, Xiao Hui and Zhang Tian also returned.

"So quick?" Xia Yao asked in surprise.

"Haiz, out was just a poor drunkard, we only had to pick him up and take him back here. Had no idea why they sent there people."

Xia Yao enquired, "Causing trouble while drunk?"

"No, this guy isn't like that..." Xiao Hui couldn't hold in his laughter.

Zhang Tian butted in, "Here, let me, this dude was really unique, remember how we received a call few days ago about a robbery? It's Mr Liu, the one who lost some bottles of expensive wine, the guys we caught today was the culprit. It turned out that her didn't escape with the bottles, but actually drank it inside the house! Guess what happened next? After having drank everything he slept for a whole day, and didn't even bother to wake up when the owner came home!"

Xia Yao also found this story entertaining, "There's such a human in this world?"

"We just caught him remember? He's being kept locked up in the interrogation room."

"What's his name?" Xia Yao asked out of interest.

Zhang Tian replied, "Li Zhi Shui if I'm not mistaken?"

Xiao Hui corrected him, "I think it's Wang Zhi Shui."

"I don't completely remember it, but I'm sure it's Zhi Shui something, I can clearly remember the two letters after. I mean, it's Da Yu Zhi Shui!"

Xia Yao's face suddenly turned green, Zhi Shui...Thief...He immediately stood up and made for the interrogation room.

Zhang Tian turned to Xiao Hui, "Do you think it's one of Xia Yao's friends?"

"Of course not, how can he hang out with such person? I would believe it if you said Xia Yao played with a little pick pocket, but our prince Xia being friends with a criminal? Never in your wildest dreams"

"So your saying that the dude we brought in has committed many crimes before?"

Xiao Hui frowned, "I honestly don't remember how many times!

* * *

Xia Yao walked into the interrogation room, Wang Zhi Shui was tied to a seat looking extremely sincere. Xia Yao scanned his gaze over him: high eyebrows and good looking in general. Inspecting his facial features, one could see the similarities in Xuan Da Yu's description.

Wang Zhi Shui tilted his head up to see Xia Yao and immediately gaped in awe: Ah shit, what handsome policeman! Gone were his fears and jitteries of being punished during interrogation, because if one didn't let such a perfect specimen hit you, it would be such a waste.

"Name." Xia Yao demanded.

Wang Zhi Shui wasn't prepared at all, "Oh, it's already starting?"

"I asked for your name!" Xia Yao said again.

"Wang Zhi Shui."

Without a second word, Xia Yao immediately left.

Wang Zhi Shui winced: I only asked a question. I haven't had enough of looking at you! Come on, talk some more...

Xia Yao left to give Xuan Da Yu a call.

"Hey, the ass is here, do you still want it?"

A bile rose up in Xuan Da Yu's throat, "Wait what? You mean..."

A thunderous voice echoed on the other side of the line, making the phone in Xia Yao's hand shiver.

"Are you really serious?"

"It's just my suspicion, I haven't officially interrogated him, so I don't know whether it's really him or not."

On the other side came the clank of items breaking, "You wait for me, I'm on my way right now!"

Twenty minutes later, Xuan Da Yu walked into the police station, asking, "Where is he?"

"Locked in the interrogation room, of course!"

Xuan Da Yu took took strides forward but was halted in his steps by Xia Yao.

"You can't enter."

"I have to get my hands on that asshole right now!" Xuan Da Yu exclaimed in heated imps impatience.

Xia Yao coldly said, "There are cameras in there so I can't let you cause me any trouble."

Green faced, Xuan Da Yu's first visibly cracked.

"How about this, I'll try to get the boss's permission to let you into the camera room, that way, you can watch what's going on inside."

Xuan Da Yu once more worked on controlling his temper as he was dragged into the surveillance room. Xia Yao turned on the cameras in the room where Wang Zhi Shui was kept and Xuan Da Yu's expression became gloomy instantly.

"That's fucking him! I would still be able to distinguish his face even if he turned to dust."

"Be quiet." Xia Yao posted Xuan Da Yu's shoulder, "sit here and wait, think about your theft case and report it back to me."

Very promptly, Xia Yao re-entered the interrogation room.

Setting Xia Yao walk in, an eye blinding smile once again appeared on Wang Zhi Shui's lips.

Xia Yao humphed, "Not a bad mental stability!"

"Usually when I see handsome guys my mood would lighten up immediately."

Xia Yao scowled, "Be serious!"

Wang Zhi Shui shot up straight.

"Name."

"Wang Zhi Shui."

"Home address."

"It's on my ID card."

Xia Yao looked at Wang Zhi Shui's ID and affirmed it must be real. The moment his gaze settled on the displayed address, he had to silently swear. What's that about Shan Dong? It is clearly written on here, "He Bei"; how could Xuan Da Yu have fallen for such an outright lie?

"He Bei, just a stone's throw from here!"

Wang Zhi Shui nodded, "I return home once a month."

Xia Yao gave a suspicious frown, what happened to being an orphan? Da Yu ah, you've been swindled from the start.

Xia Yao continued, "How many times have you stolen from this household?"

"This is the third time." Wang Zhi Shui easily admitted, "The owner, who has a chest full of Mao Tai wine, goes on business trips twice every three days. Taking advantage of him leaving the house, I sneaked in to steal some wine. I first drank half a bottle which he didn't find out; the second time I finished off the rest and he still didn't know. And so I came back for the third trial..."

Xia Yao asked, "Apart from this occasion, you've really never done anything of the same type?"

"Nope!" Wang Zhi Shui said with a straight face, "This is without a doubt my first time committing an offence!"

Xia Yao squinted slightly, "Then do you us happen to know anyone who goes by the name Xuan Da Yu?"

A sign of fear fleeted across Wang Zhi Shui's face, but was soon replied by an animated expression of utter surprise.

"Xuan Da Yu? I only know if Da Yu, as in Da Yu Zhi Shui. But who doesn't know this legend!" His eyes lit up, "Is there really someone who's called... What... Xuan Da Yu? I thought you were joking with me. This name is such a perfect fit with mine, this is fate, don't you think? Sounds exactly like bonded brotherhood."

Xuan Da Yu, who was sitting in the surveillance monitoring room, was reeling in anger and was having to refrain himself from smashing the cameras.
