Min Ying subconsciously dodged to the side, but felt something piercing through his shoulder and his entire right arm. The bone-chilling coldness quickly seeped from his head to the soles of his feet, and the feeling of total despair disappeared in an instant.

"Captain, what's wrong with you?" Zhu Shou felt a little puzzled about being quickly pulled out of the elevator by Min Ying.

"You, didn't you see it?" Min Ying turned around quickly and saw clearly through the gap in the slowly closing elevator door that the few people who had passed by him just now were squeezed in the crowd going downstairs.

"Floating." It turned out that there were floating creatures not only around me, but also here; and, it seemed that they were the kind of working floating creatures with positions.

"Don't scare me!" Zhu Shou obviously didn't hear what Min Ying said, and pointed forward and shouted:

"Captain Min, it's my sister-in-law!"

"Don't talk nonsense. Shuiru is already engaged, and she shouldn't and can't be involved in any negative comments." Min Ying didn't even need to follow where the other party was pointing. His sight easily swept across a group of fashionable white-collar men and women and landed on that slender figure with a pure temperament, vitality and beauty.

Bai Shuiru came to the seasoning area with a tray and was about to get some hot and sour side dishes when someone called her from behind.

The two women who were also holding plates seemed to be asking Bai Shuiru something, while another woman holding a plate quickly walked from the side to behind the latter and quickly added something unknown to the meal that was not in the other's sight.

"Sister-in-law, I mean, Miss Bai has offended those three women, right? She is using such low-class tactics in broad daylight." Zhu Shou turned his head to Min Ying angrily, "Captain, this is a good opportunity."

Just as she finished speaking, the woman who had "added ingredients" to Bai Shuiru's meal suddenly fell down without any warning. She even did a street dance leg spin in her ten-centimeter high heels before falling.

"Wow! Wonderful! Let her reveal her dirty tricks in broad daylight!" Zhu Shou cheered softly, and suddenly his expression showed a hint of hesitation.

Min Ying quickly glanced at Zhu Shou's expression and understood clearly:

Like me, he obviously saw the five uniformed men standing in a circle with Shui Ru as the center; the uniformed woman who was the one who caused the woman to fall and perform "street dance" was raising her eyebrows and brushing away the dust from her palm with disdain.

That must be the person sent by Hei Huomian to protect Shui Ru.

Bai Shuiru was about to help her fallen female colleague up when she was opened by the other party. She watched the other party leave helplessly and innocently, then turned around and looked around, pouting her lips and frowning, and finally laughed in anger:

It was obvious that he wanted to lose his temper with that group of "people", but he couldn't, so he just laughed it off.

The six guards, five men and one woman, stood at attention, saluted the girl, and then pointed to the dining area in the cafeteria with a smile, obviously with an attitude of "I was wrong, I will dare to do it again next time."

Therefore, Shui Ru could also see "them" and seemed very familiar with them; it was even possible that she was being protected by "them", and the person assigned by them was Hei Huomian.

While Min Ying was thinking, he met Bai Shuiru's happy expression after she discovered him.

The little girl didn't even take the plate, and trotted towards the young man, "Brother Min Ying, why are you here?"

I am really happy to see you smile in a friendly and relaxed manner when you see me. Even if the person you choose is not me, I will still be happy with it. Min Ying hurriedly put his hands in his trouser pockets and smiled:

"I'm here to investigate a case."

"Check..." Bai Shuiru immediately pulled Min Ying to a corner, looked around to see if anyone else was approaching, and signaled the six secret guards not to approach, then asked in a low voice:

"Brother Min Ying, what case are you investigating?" The little girl lowered her voice by three points before continuing:

"It's not like you're investigating Black Fire Sleep, right?"

Min Ying was about to respond when he was interrupted by a female voice:

"So, in our great multinational corporation Mingxin, there is actually a green tea guy who eats from the bowl while looking at the pot~!"

"It's from our Dong Office~!"

"Keep your voice down, isn't it embarrassing enough? I feel so sorry for Mr. Hei! He is so perfect, tall, rich and handsome, yet people still label him as an environmentalist."

Bai Shuiru and Min Ying looked in the direction of the sound, and saw that it was the female colleague from before and four others who were carrying food trays and deliberately walked around to them, then sat down at an empty table a few meters away.

"You know better than anyone what kind of people say one thing in front of others and do another behind their backs." While Min Ying was speaking, he turned around, took the glass of juice on the tray and slammed it on the table in front of his female colleague.

The female colleague quickly glanced at the glass of juice that had been "spiked", her face turned pale and red, she quickly calmed down and retorted:

"Who are you? You probably don't know that the Bai Shuiru you are protecting has 'another'? One in the office, and another outside. Both men are top-notch, you really know how to enjoy yourself~!" The female colleague became more and more excited as she walked around Min Ying in her high heels, swinging her hips and waist. "Since you like 'threesomes', one more or one less doesn't make a difference? How about it~?"

The female colleague's explicit gaze even scanned the young man from top to bottom, and finally lingered on a sensitive part. She even shamelessly licked her lips and swallowed her saliva hungrily.

Min Ying's brows and eyes remained righteous, and he remained calm like an old monk. He raised his hand to show the ID tucked inside his coat, but Bai Shuiru grabbed his sleeve.

Bai Shuiru shook his head at Min Ying and took a step forward to protect him. Although there was sarcasm on his face, his tone was not obvious. "You should have heard some rumors. About the day when Shen Yiyi had the accident, I gave her some hints..."

Bai Shuiru's words became quieter and quieter, and her female colleague's expression became more and more gloomy.

Bai Shuiru stopped at the point, and satisfiedly ate away the look on her female colleague's face that changed from confusion to sudden realization and finally to fear. She picked up the plate and walked to the swill bucket, poured all the food into the bucket, and looked at Min Ying, "Brother Min Ying, my entire meal has been tampered with anyway, so why don't we just go out to eat."

Min Ying glanced at the four female colleagues, and sure enough, they showed regret on their faces and shook their heads in frustration. Then, noticing the chill all around them, they rubbed their arms and looked around. Around them, the six floating guards of Bai Shuiru, the instigator, retracted their terrifying original bodies and teleported behind Bai Shuiru.

It seems that the other party did something again when they were not paying attention.

Min Ying was about to nod in agreement when he suddenly pushed Bai Shuiru away and jumped backwards to avoid a half-dry mop.

Wan Che appeared again with one hand on his waist and the other holding a mop. He slammed the mop handle to the ground, frowned at Min Ying and Zhu Shou, and criticized:

"Bai Shuiru, you really are a stubborn person! Two more this time?!"

Min Ying narrowed his eyes slightly and was about to step forward to interfere, but Bai Shuiru gently pulled his wrist.

"Good boy!" Bai Shuiru tiptoed and rubbed the young man's head lovingly, then pulled Min Ying's arm towards the exit, "I'll bring you coffee when I come back."

Wan Che immediately changed his attitude, and walked towards Bai Shuiru with starry eyes, even wagging his "non-existent tail" and making a weak request:

"Can I have an Irish coffee?"

More than ten minutes later, Bai Shuiru, Min Ying and Zhu Shou's car arrived at a restaurant with good reviews. Because they just missed the lunch rush hour, the already elegant dining atmosphere seemed even more quiet and relaxing.

"Shui Ru, I..." The young man paused, but continued with a red face, "I gave up because you chose him, and you believed that he could bring you happiness, and I have to admit that he should be able to do it with his status and ability. But I didn't expect that even under his nose, you would still be bullied by others!"

"You mean, Hei Huo Mian didn't protect me?" Bai Shuiru was stunned for a moment, then she tried to hold back her laughter and quickly apologized, "No, Brother Min Ying, you really misunderstood Hei Huo Mian! Things are not what you see."

"Besides the promotion of my job rank, I actually took advantage of my position to bully others. But I can't help but some villains who like to do things behind my back. It's just like Brother Min Ying, you guys are working hard to promote the rule of law and curb the occurrence of crimes, but you can't 100% eradicate the root causes."

"I understand."

When Min Ying heard this, he was still worried and a little unwilling and depressed, but the young man quickly uprooted them. Then he promised with a burning look:

"If you have any grievances or difficulties in the future, especially if Hei Huo Mian treats you badly, you must contact me as soon as possible. I will always provide you with a safe place to stay."

"Of course, you are my d——", Bai Shuiru patted the young man's arm and quickly changed the topic:

"Brother~!"

Indeed, after the "Afternoon Tea", "Rainy Night Butcher" and "Magician" incidents, there are still people who are not afraid of death and openly tease me. The power behind the other party must be not simple. Could it be that even Hei Huomian is afraid of him?

Min Ying was slightly startled by Bai Shuiru's change of words, then smiled and nodded. After taking a sip of the drink to moisten his throat, he asked solemnly, word by word:

"By the way, Shuiru, you can also see that there are floating things in this world, right?"

When Zhu Shou heard the conversation finally get to the point, he immediately stopped sipping his drink and looked up at Bai Shuiru.

Bai Shuiru was stunned when he heard this, and after thinking for a while, he nodded, "Yes, yes."

She met the other party's urgent and inquiring gaze and speculated:

"What? Have you encountered any case related to Piao recently?" She covered her lips with her hands, lowered her voice, and continued mysteriously:

"I can help you find some information. I can guarantee you first-hand information." She immediately corrected:

"Don't get me wrong, I just have a pulse problem. I'm not involved in anything illegal."

"Of course I believe you." Min Ying responded firmly.

"Brother Min Ying, I'm not afraid to tell you that I actually have the ability to see other people's judgments. I just revealed some information to the female colleague who had ill intentions towards me, to teach her to always be humble; not everyone who treats others kindly is an easy target."

Min Ying was stunned for a moment, then he lowered his head and smiled.

"What's wrong? What did I say wrong?"

"No." The young man raised his head and looked at the little girl with a smile, but his tone was very serious, "I'm just happy that you have grown up and become an adult who can protect yourself well. You still have enough sincerity in your heart, but you will not let your kindness be bullied or slaughtered by others."

Bai Shuiru was slightly startled, then she realized that the other party still thought that she was the childhood sweetheart who could not be loved. She opened her lips to speak but stopped herself. She swallowed the words and responded with a bright smile:

"Brother Min Ying, you are the same! Your compassion and protection for the weak remain the same as before, and this has never been erased by age and the vicissitudes of life. You are also kind and persistent, sincere and firm."

Min Ying was slightly startled, his face turned red, and he muttered softly:

"If I were so good, you wouldn't choose him..."

Zhu Shou, who had been pretending to be a background board, was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly scooped ice cream into his mouth one spoonful after another, but still attracted Min Ying's sidelong glance.

"What?" Bai Shuiru was concentrating on using a spoon to scoop out a small mouthful of mousse cake and carefully put it into her mouth. If she were in front of Hei Huomian, she wouldn't have to be so careful to maintain her image; but she had to maintain a good image for her original self in front of "her" brother Min Ying.

Bai Shuiru also noticed that Zhu Shou was pretending to be an NPC, so she considerately called the waiter and ordered a few more ice creams.

Just as the waiter left with the menu, a familiar voice came from behind:

"Ordering so much, will you still be able to eat the feast I made for you tonight?"

Bai Shuiru's eyebrows and eyes immediately brightened, and she pretended to straighten her lips. She should:

"Brother Min Ying, Zhu Shou, what we are talking about are confidential and important matters. Let's go to another place!" After saying that, he stood up and led the team away from their seats.

Min Ying sensed that Bai Shuiru was flirting with Hei Huomian, so he suppressed the slight sourness in his heart, stood up and nodded to Hei Huomian, then took Zhu Shou to say goodbye and go to pay the bill.

Hei Huomian responded to Min Ying, then shook his head to indicate that he would pay the bill, then raised the corners of his lips slightly and read out the menu items that tempted his little girl one by one:

"rack of lamb."

"Beat the unlucky egg fried rice with a stick."

"Deal!" Bai Shuiru quickly picked up the spoon and was about to scoop out the cake, but Hei Huomian put his arm around her waist and left her seat.

"Hey~! I just took a bite of the cake."

Hei Huomian handed a few bills to the clerk and said, "I'll pay for the cutlery and plates together." Then he picked up the porcelain plate and spoon containing the cake and extended his hand to Bai Shuiru.

As soon as Hei Huomian and Bai Shuiru got into the car, he held the little girl tightly in his arms.

Bai Shuiru was stunned for a moment, then raised her hand and gently patted the man's back, "I didn't run away? The six guards are all here."

"I know. I'm just always worried." The man loosened his arms slightly and kissed her heart. "I'm sorry, I'll try my best to adjust my mentality and try not to think too much."

"It's okay. I'm glad you're so nervous about me."

Hei Huomian felt the phone in his pocket vibrate slightly, and clicked on the message, which turned out to be a message from Min Ying:

"I believe you. P.S. I just want Shuiru to be safe, happy and blessed."

Bai Shuiru noticed the man's slightly raised lips, "What makes you so happy?"

Hei Huomian threw away his phone and took the little girl standing beside him to sit on his lap. "Only you can make me happy forever."

Bai Shuiru put her arms around the man's neck, tilted her head and smiled calculatingly, and demanded:

"Then you have to help me check something."

"My fiancée finally remembered to use me! How exciting," the man approached the girl and pretended to have a cunning smile, "The reward you will pay me must not be less..."

The stretched car slowly drove away from the parking lot, and Qin Xi, who had been watching for a long time, walked out from behind the art sculpture not far away.
