I failed again

"Sure. I haven't eaten Cantonese cuisine yet, I can try it this time." Jiang Ruoyuan said.

Bai Ci followed the navigation and came to a quiet Cantonese restaurant. The two of them entered a private room and a waiter came in with menus to take their order.

Jiang Ruoyuan didn't know what to eat, so he pushed the menu to Bai Ci and asked him to order.

After asking Jiang Ruoyuan for his opinion, Bai Ci ordered several dishes including boiled chicken, baked lobster in soup, eight-treasure winter melon soup, sweet and sour pork, fragrant fish balls, and traditional hot soup.

While waiting for the food, Jiang Ruoyuan suddenly looked at Bai Ci shyly, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.

Bai Ci felt a little uneasy at his expression. He moved his body uncomfortably and asked, "What's wrong?"

"That's right... you may have to keep me here for a few more days." Jiang Ruoyuan felt a little embarrassed. When he first asked Bai Ci to take him in, he said that he would leave after he got news from the CP-breaking group. But now he couldn't leave and had to stay here.

Bai Ci breathed a sigh of relief. He was scared to death. Jiang Ruoyuan's expression just now made him think that Jiang Ruoyuan was going to confess his love to him.

Ignoring the feeling of loss in his heart, Bai Ci replied in a gentle voice, "It's okay, you can stay as long as you want."

Jiang Ruoyuan was so moved that his eyes filled with tears. Bai Ci was such a good person. If he had known about his previous mission world, he would not have scolded him so harshly.

As they were talking, the door of the private room opened and the waiter came over to serve the dishes. After serving the dishes, the waiter left.

Jiang Ruoyuan and the others also started eating, chatting about some trivial topics while eating.

Half an hour later, Jiang Ruoyuan and his team returned to the group.

As soon as he arrived at the office, Jiang Ruoyuan said he was sleepy and wanted to take a nap. He asked Bai Ci if he wanted to join him. After being rejected by Bai Ci, he went to the lounge alone to take a nap.

Hospital

At this moment, Qi Anyan had just put down his bowl and chopsticks. Xie Zhixuan, who was sitting by the bed watching the surveillance video sent by his men, immediately looked over and asked, "Are you full?"

"Yeah, I'm full." Qi Anyan nodded.

Xie Zhixuan asked someone to come and take away all the things.

After everyone left, Xie Zhixuan saw that he was in good spirits and his face was much rosier, so he asked him about what happened in the morning, "Didn't you go to meet a friend this morning? How did you get yourself so injured?"

Qi Anyan lowered his eyes slightly and said thoughtfully, "I don't know either. We were chatting happily at the time, and suddenly a masked man came in and attacked us without saying a word."

From Xie Zhixuan's perspective, Qi Anyan's face had lost its usual indifferent expression. He looked as fragile as thin ice, which made him feel pity for him.

Her tone unconsciously became gentle, for fear of accidentally scaring him, "And then? I saw on the surveillance that your friend left the villa unharmed, so how did you get so badly injured?"

Qi Anyan whispered, "Because I was standing in front of him, and he seemed to be coming towards me..."

As he spoke, Qi Anyan raised his head, staring at Xie Zhixuan with a pair of dark eyes in confusion, and continued, "Did you offend someone? Since they couldn't take revenge on you, they came to take revenge on me?"

Xie Zhixuan felt a little guilty when he was stared at him, and couldn't help but look away. It turned out that it might really be because of him.

At first, I thought that An Yang had taken a new mission, so he attacked Qi Anyan, but I also thought that Qi Anyan, who only knew how to spend his days drinking and partying, could have offended anyone? Why would he hire An Yang to kill him?

So, he asked his men to check whether An Yang and the others had received any more orders, and the reply he got was no. So it was obvious that what happened to Qi Anyan today was directed at him.

However, what puzzled Xie Zhixuan was that he had so many lovers in the past, but An Yang had never targeted any of them. Why did he only target Qi Anyan today?

Moreover, where did he hear this from? He actually felt that Qi Anyan was very important to him... Well, although he couldn't be called important, he had some weight.

Seeing Xie Zhixuan's guilty reaction, Qi Anyan said in disbelief, "It's not really because of you, is it?"

Xie Zhixuan turned his head and said nothing, but the guilt in his eyes explained everything very well.

"Tsk, if he has a grudge against you, he's going to deal with you, why is he coming after me?" Qi Anyan said dissatisfiedly, "Why, seeing that yesterday's explosion didn't kill you, but only caused you minor injuries, he came to kill me to see if my death can make you sad?"

"Then I can only say that he made a wrong calculation. You and I are just ordinary bed partners. I don't have much status in your heart." Qi Anyan was speechless. "I really give in."

Xie Zhixuan looked at Qi Anyan steadily, and after a long while he whispered, "Is it possible that his calculations were correct?"

"What?" For the first time in his life, Qi Anyan doubted whether there was something wrong with his ears. What did he just hear Xie Zhixuan say?

"The calculation was correct"? Is that what he understood? Is he crazy or is Xie Zhixuan crazy?

Xie Zhixuan just calmly tucked the corner of his quilt and said, "It's nothing. Take good care of your injuries. I will go and avenge you."

Qi Anyan: ...Thank you.

"Oh. But, do you plan to work here forever?" Qi Anyan asked.

"After all, you were injured because of me. Is it not too much for me to take care of you here?" Xie Zhixuan raised his eyebrows and asked back.

"You can hire a nurse for me." Qi Anyan said. After all, he was here, so he had to be careful in everything he did.

"I don't trust the nurse, so it's better for me to do it." Xie Zhixuan said. Let the nurse wipe his body and change his clothes? Impossible!

Seeing that he couldn't persuade Xie Zhixuan, Qi Anyan gave up.

Let him do whatever he wants, after all, he is the one serving others, not you.

"It's up to you." Qi Anyan said and closed his eyes.

Xie Zhixuan looked at him for a while, and was about to get up and go back to the sofa to continue working, when he heard Qi Anyan suddenly ask, "I almost forgot, how did you end up there?"

"The head of the Bai family told me." Xie Zhixuan said, "He told me that my mortal enemy was there, so I went over there. I didn't expect to see you lying on the ground covered in blood. I was almost scared to death."

"Then I have to thank him." Qi Anyan said with a wry smile.

"That's true. After all, without him, I would not have been able to get there. You might have died there today." As he said this, Xie Zhixuan was still somewhat grateful to Bai Ci.

Qi Anyan curled his lips and said, adhering to the principle of telling the whole story when lying, "Of course not. He started fighting with that man as soon as he arrived, buying precious time for my friend to leave."
