Reincarnated: The Mob Boss Turned Detective[BL]

"I've watched you grow from a naive college student into a mature man over the three years you've been with me. I've accompanied you as you've grown, and you've accompanied me through many happy days. I don't know when it started, but I found that I wanted to keep you firmly within my sight. Over the years, you're the first person who's made me want to settle down. I don't trust anyone else to sleep by my side, but if it's you, I think... I should be able to, no, I mean, I'd be willing to spend a lifetime with you. This is the first time I've confessed my feelings to anyone in my life, so think about it. The roses in the car, if you like them, keep them, if not... I'll take them back. That's it." The recording device in the trunk abruptly stopped. It was a clever device that would automatically start playing as soon as the trunk was fully opened. Having fulfilled its purpose, it lay quietly amidst a car full of red roses, as if waiting with the roses for their owner to retrieve them.

The House Hunt Hustle  

"Whoa, Jiao, take a breath," Bighead urged, his eyes involuntarily drawn to the scant few strands of hair clinging to Jiao's scalp. He felt an almost overwhelming urge to help. "Look, if the house is up to snuff, we'll make it happen pronto. We won't leave you hanging. Just focus on getting your wife the medical attention she needs."

Jiao's hands flew to his face. "The doc says it's not something that can be cured overnight, and it might..." His voice trailed off, leaving the sentence hanging.

Family affairs are a minefield, and only those in the thick of it really know the score. Bighead, despite being a cop, knew this wasn't the time to play twenty questions. He glanced at Wang Zhiyuan, "Shall we take a gander at the house?"

Jiao practically leaped to his feet. "Please, have a look around. My wife was the maestro behind the decor. We've been..." He hesitated, then continued, "We never had kids, so the place is spotless."
