Zuo Yu: “……?”

"What exactly are you researching?"

Bai Ya's research institute's experimental projects have always been kept secret. Zuo Yu couldn't understand her research and didn't want to interfere, but now it's different.

He felt that Bai Ya was going crazy.

His mental state is insane, he is about to become some weird scientific madman.

"I'm studying the future of mankind." The distorted electronic voice poked at him.

"..." Zuo Yu rubbed the goose bumps on his arms, "Yaya, can we be more normal?"

"No." Bai Ya refused coldly, "I'm logged off. Don't contact me unless necessary. The future of mankind and the Qi family needs me very much. I don't have time to reply to your message."

"!" Zuo Yu hurriedly asked, "Wait a minute, are you just going to leave like this? Am I not important in your heart?"

"You?" The circle trembled, "What do you think?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the cross of light spots on the screen disappeared.

Zuo Yu knew that the "future of mankind" was more important.

He took out his cell phone and sent a message to Bai Ya.

Xiaoyuer: [You should go to bed. ]

He says he doesn’t have time to reply, but the other party always replies within seconds.

Duck: [Climb.]

Xiaoyuer: [love, love, love]

Duck Duck: [vomit, vomit, vomit]

……

Country B, capital.

The plane landed at seven in the morning and the two had breakfast in the airport restaurant.

"I'm only responsible for sending you back to the apartment." Qi Yan said while drinking coffee.

Zhong Shan looked up at her, completely unaware that just over ten minutes ago, he almost lost his life.

He also regarded Qi Yan as a 'good person' who could protect him, and said with sympathy:

"Can't you stay with me until Old Zhong makes his verdict?"

Qi Yan looked at him strangely.

"…Why, why are you looking at me like that?" Zhong Shan felt uncomfortable.

"You..." Qi Yan pondered, "Did you fall in love with me?"

Zhong Shan: “…”

He lowered his head, and the tips of his ears were a little red under his messy hair.

Qi Yan had good eyesight and saw it clearly, only then did she realize that her words were ambiguous.

In the past, she would have thought that the air conditioning in the airport was turned on too high, but after being pestered by Shen Rao, there was nothing she couldn't understand.

absurd.

This was her only thought.

This guy probably has masochistic tendencies, so Qi Yan pulled the chair back, away from him.

The evasive action obviously irritated Zhong Shan, and he hurriedly denied it.

"I didn't, you're overthinking."

Zhong Shan hesitated: "It's just...it's just..."

He quietly raised his eyes to look at Qi Yan and said, "You were sent by my father. I feel you are very kind."

"..."

Qi Yan also didn't know how she could be so friendly to this man, since she had either beaten him or secretly worried about his life along the way.

But she was too lazy to care about that and took a sip of coffee.

"It's okay. It's my fault that I have a friendly face."

Zhong Shan's mouth twitched a few times. After being amazed at Qi Yan's extremely thick skin, he followed her words.

"You are indeed very good-looking."

Qi Yan glanced at him calmly, "Really?"

"Yes," Zhong Shan said, "I was shocked when I saw you for the first time. I thought, you are so beautiful, why do you want to do such a dangerous job? You should not be short of money, right?"

"Personal hobby." Qi Yan replied.

"..."

Zhong Shan's eyelids twitched. What was his hobby? A hobby of danger? Or a hobby of work?

I really can't continue the conversation this time.

After breakfast, Qi Yan took Zhong Shan back to his apartment in the city.

Zhong Shan watched the airport staff hand over the key. After getting in the car, Qi Yan did not ask him for the address and drove to the area he was familiar with.

Zhong Shanhou felt a little sour on his molars.

He asked, "How do you know my address?"

"Did my dad tell you that?"

Just like he didn't know why Qi Yan appeared in his place in the old city.

This time she still smiled and said nothing.

Looking silently at the road outside the windshield, Zhong Shan felt as if there were an invisible hand controlling him from behind.

The vague sense of being watched these days seems to have found the answer.

The airport is located in the suburbs and it takes some time to get to the city.

At noon, the car stopped downstairs of the apartment building.

"Get in." Qi Yan unlocked the car.

"Won't you come with me?" Zhong Shan asked while unbuckling his seat belt.

"I……"

"It's still a long time until the next flight."

"you……"

"Aren't you afraid that something might happen to me right now? How are you going to explain to my father if something happens to me? Just come with me. I didn't ask you to stay with me all the time."

As soon as he felt the moral shackles slapping at him, Qi Yan glanced at him meaningfully and unbuckled his seat belt.

Seeing her compromise, Zhong Shan's eyes flashed. He hurriedly got out of the car and diligently helped Qi Yan open the door, but failed.

"..."

The atmosphere was awkward for a moment.

Qi Yan looked out through the well-protected car window glass, and the indifference in his clear eyes contained a barely perceptible hint of strangeness.

She lowered the seat belt buckle, pressed the door switch and got out of the car.

Zhong Shan took a step back and smiled at her kindly: "I wanted to help you open the door."

"Let's go." Qi Yan closed the car door.

"Let's go. It's on the 18th floor."

Zhong Shan walked beside her, and Qi Yan moved to the side quietly without even touching the corner of his clothes.

The two walked into the elevator one after another.

The light in the elevator was cold and white, and the humming sound of machinery echoed.

Qi Yan stood there with her eyes closed. Zhong Shan looked at her carefully, his eyes moving up and down, unknown as to what he was thinking.

Half a minute later.

'Ding--'

The elevator door opened.

A man was standing outside the elevator. In a flash, Qi Yan opened her eyes and pressed the back of Zhong Shan's head who was looking at her.

'Boom! '

The sound of bullets ricocheting off the metal walls of the elevator.

Without waiting for the other party to react, Qi Yan kicked the man in the abdomen and kicked him away cleanly.

Zhong Shan raised his head in a daze and only saw the tall and slender back of the woman.

The next moment, the elevator closed tightly, and the smell of gunpowder was still lingering in the closed space.

He tilted his head to look at the sunken iron wall of the elevator and touched his forehead which was covered with cold sweat.

It was almost, just almost, and he would have passed away!

The elevator was well soundproofed and no noise from outside could be heard. The only sound in the elevator was his heavy breathing.

Zhong Shan didn't dare to press the door-opening button, nor did he dare to run to other floors. He didn't know how many people who wanted to kill him were hiding around.

Just as his brain was working rapidly, the elevator door opened.

Zhong Shan held his breath and slowly opened the elevator door. Outside was Qi Yan, whose hair was not even messy.

She stepped aside and said, "The person has been dealt with, come out."

Looking at her indifferent look, Zhong Shan didn't know how to describe his feelings at this moment. A strange excitement was running wildly in his boiling blood.

So strong.

Really strong.

He walked a few steps outside, reached out to pull Qi Yan's clothes and said:

"I now truly feel that you saved my life, but I have no money left."

Zhong Shan raised his head, revealing his fair neck and the collarbone faintly visible under his collar.

"How can I repay you?"
