Uncle Nine, where are you running to?

Jingzhi regretted throwing the things away.

In the tail ring, there are many of Zhu Jiu's usual things. Although Zhu Jiu likes to tease her, he is very good to her, unlike Cheng Ying.

Jingzhi, who had recovered, took a piece of paper to wipe away her tears, took another piece of paper to blow her nose, kicked the fat man's shoes, and said in a hoarse voice:

"Please help me find the ring. I don't want anything else, but that ring is very important to me."

The fat man's butt was numb from sitting so much. When she said that, he stood up immediately as if he had been granted amnesty.

"You... Well, stay here for a while. Don't be silly. I'll go back and look for it for you."

Jingzhi: "Yes, thank you."

The fat man walked to the door, held it and wanted to say something more, but after thinking about it, he shut up.

His brother Eagle is so heartless, and if he lets her chase him again, his fat brother will feel guilty.

"Hey, you should have a good rest."

When the door was about to close, Jingzhi suddenly reminded him, "Please keep it a secret and don't tell Cheng Ying where I live."

The fat man opened his mouth, finally responded softly, closed the door for her and left.

……

After he left, Jingzhi leaned back and slumped at the head of the bed, staring blankly at the old-fashioned tungsten filament lamp above her head that was a little black.

The white roof was a little yellow, and there was a spider-web-like crack on it that spanned the entire bed.

It won’t leak, right?

That's it.

After all, it's not her home, so why should she worry about it?

As she was thinking, she took out the almost rotten letter from her pinky ring.

Although Lin Jiu in the second life has a sharp tongue, he is actually the most gentle person. Every time she is sad, she can't help but think of him.

[If he bullies you, Jiu hopes you can wake him up as soon as possible.]

If he really did something to let you down, I hope you can leave him.

I don’t want to see you sad for me anymore, even I don’t want to see you sad for me anymore.

Her fingers gently stroked the words, just like every night in the past few days.

Every time Cheng Ying chased her away, she felt more uncomfortable and her face became more gloomy, as if she had to stick to him.

The reason she didn't want to leave was simply because she still loved him and was worried about him.

"Ajiu, have you figured something out already?"

"Alas... don't blame me. Although Ah Ying can't speak, his heart has changed... I really tried my best."

"He's even worse than Erdi. He bullies me, wuwu..."

As she spoke, she put the letter paper on the table, wrapped her head tightly in the quilt, and cried her heart out.

After going and coming back, the worried fat man put down his hand that was about to knock on the door, listened to the pitiful sobbing coming from inside, sighed softly, shook his head and left.

What is going on? Why is Brother Ying so stubborn?

The ring was nowhere to be found, and he was too embarrassed to go in and see her.

……

After a few more days, Cheng Ying, who was like a walking corpse, finally moved.

How is she?

The fat man looked at the notebook spread out on the table, crossed his legs, turned his head to the window and not looked at Cheng Ying, holding a cigarette in his mouth with an angry tone.

"Humph, that's exactly what happened. She's almost crying her eyes out. She really likes you. I don't believe you can't see it."

Cheng Ying tightened the pen in his hand and was about to ask her where she was, but after thinking for a moment, he felt that she was probably still angry and would definitely not let him find her, so Cheng Ying changed the words he wrote.

[You know where she lives, please go visit her more often.]

The fat man couldn't help getting angry when he saw this kind of afterthought concern.

This fat guy is at most an ordinary friend of the opposite sex of Jingzhi. It is not good for him to always go to her place.

He crossed his legs, put down his cigarette, and asked Cheng Ying, who was sitting across the table, seriously:

"You really don't like her?"

Cheng Ying froze, staring at the lit screen of his phone with his eyelashes drooping.

Don't like it?

He didn't know either.

But his heart was full of regret, and he didn't know whether this feeling could be called love.

The screen shows the draft interface of the text message.

There were more than a dozen different text messages edited in it, all expressing various apologies.

However, not a single one was sent out.

The fat man saw his dazed look, stubbed out his cigarette, rolled his eyes at Cheng Ying, and said angrily:

"I really don't know what you're thinking. If we say that people in this line of work value affection and loyalty the most, then in my opinion, your actions are neither affectionate nor loyal. I think you'll definitely regret it in the future!"

Cheng Ying: Don’t even mention the future, he regrets it now.

But time can heal the pain.

She will also forget him and live her own life.

Cheng Ying stopped looking at the fat man, stood up, turned around and walked to the window.

There is a small circular garden downstairs.

Yiling sat beside the flower bed, her eyes unfocused, staring blankly.

After not seeing her for a few days, she has lost a lot of weight.

Cheng Ying found that he gradually paid less attention to Yiling.

"Brother Ying, did you see the ring she threw away when you went in and out of your house downstairs?" the fat man suddenly asked.

Cheng Ying clasped his fingertips on the windowsill, remained silent for a few seconds, and finally, against his conscience, he knocked lightly three times.

The fat man scratched the back of his head twice, puzzled. "It's strange. The place downstairs isn't very big. I almost turned over the bricks, but I can't find any metal fragments."

With a creaking sound, the fat man leaned back heavily on the chair and pinched his brows with two fingers. "She asked me to get the ring back for her. If I don't find it, I'm embarrassed to go to Feng... uh..."

The fat man suddenly covered his mouth.

Damn, I almost let out her current address.

Cheng Ying silently recited the word "Feng" in his mind. There were only two apartments nearby with the word "Feng" in their names, one was Fengting and the other was Fengshan.

Fengting is closer to his home, and Fengshan is closer to the base camp.

His left hand, hanging by his side, clenched into a fist. He didn't know why he was thinking about this question...

"Jingle Bell……"

The landline on the table suddenly rang.

The fat man propped one knee on the chair, twisted his body back, and picked up the receiver on the table.

After listening for a while, he handed the receiver to Cheng Ying, "The boss wants to see you."

Lin Wei has been staying at home these days, so why did he suddenly look for him?

Cheng Ying was puzzled. He took the phone, put it to his ear and tapped it twice.

There was a moment of silence on the other side, and then a slightly hoarse and low voice sounded, "Aying, Yiling is downstairs. She hasn't been out for several days. This won't do. You should take her out for a walk to relax."

Cheng Ying's fingers froze for a moment, then he finally lifted them up and tapped the microphone twice.

The fat man was standing next to Cheng Ying, and he also heard what Lin Wei said.

As soon as the phone was hung up, he rolled his eyes.

"I say, you two are really weird. You all pushed women away, and you actually agreed?! Tsk, wait a minute... Oh, forget it, I don't want to talk about it."

The fat man looked at him and saw that his eyes were not eyes and his nose was not a nose. He took the cigarette and lighter on the table, turned around and walked out quickly.

Cheng Ying pulled the corner of his mouth bitterly. He envied the fat man for not wanting to talk sometimes, but he couldn't say it...

……

Yiling was staring at the flower in a daze when her shoulder was suddenly touched. Her body stiffened and she turned around to see that it was Cheng Ying. Her beautiful big eyes immediately drooped.

"Where's Brother Wei...?"

Cheng Ying looked silently at the half-open window on the third floor for two seconds and made a few sign language gestures to Yiling.

He asked me to take you out for a walk.

Yiling was silent.

Since she came here, she had never had such a long-lasting quarrel with Lin Wei.

However, those peaceful and beautiful days eventually made Yiling develop inappropriate feelings towards Zhong Ao.

The same is true for Zhong Ao.

But she, who had received a favor from Lin Wei, how could she just turn around and leave?

Yiling stood up and patted the fallen leaves that covered her white skirt, "Let's go..."

The two of them didn't drive, they just walked out of the base camp one after the other.

There are many factories near the base camp.

With the gathering of people here, a business circle naturally formed outside the factory, which was very lively.

There are many places selling food, clothes, hairdressing, and shopping malls.

These two silent people are two outliers in this noisy environment. They only look but don’t buy, and they just keep shopping.

Watching Yiling wandering around like a headless fly for a long time, Cheng Ying pointed to the coffee shop across the street. Yiling didn't want to go anywhere and it would be best if she could sit down, so she nodded slightly and walked over.

Seeing that she refused to even order a drink and just sat on the rattan chair outside the cafe, Cheng Ying sighed, took out his wallet and walked into the cafe to order.

It took only five minutes to get in.

Cheng Ying came out with two cups of warm coffee.

The round table where a beautiful woman should have been sitting now only had an open magazine.

Cheng Ying narrowed his eyes, put the coffee on the table, and called the young man who was selling sausages outside the store.

【Where is your sister Ling? 】

The young man is called Xiao Yang, and he is also Lin Wei's subordinate.

This place is not far from Lin Wei's base camp, and there are spies planted by Lin Wei everywhere.

Anyone who dares to take people away here is either brave or reckless.

Xiao Yang handed Cheng Ying a sausage and while doing so, he moved closer, "At ten o'clock, that's Sister Ling that Kong San took away."

"Zhong Ao is here too. They're currently staying at rooms 403 and 406 at Fengting Apartment."

Cheng Ying sneered silently, glanced at the alley entrance at ten o'clock, and strode over.

He threw away the steaming sausage, and after entering the alley, he suddenly took out a pistol from his belt with his empty hand.

He pressed his back against the wall and gently loaded the gun.

It seemed like someone was arguing in the alley at this time, but they lowered their voices and Cheng Ying couldn't hear clearly.

However, he could recognize the tone of the two people's voices and Yiling's occasional exclamations.

The visitor is still an old acquaintance.

One is Zhong Ao, and the other is Kong San mentioned by Xiao Yang.

As Cheng Ying slowly approached, the content of the argument became clearer.

It turned out that Zhong Ao was afraid that Yiling would be convicted as an accomplice if she concealed the fact that Lin Wei committed a crime, so he didn't want Yiling to make a confession and wanted her to return to her hometown.

However, Kong San disagreed, thinking that the country was far away and Lin Wei had more men than their police. Once Yi Ling went to the sparsely populated countryside, it would be much more difficult for them to track her.

Each man has his own reason. Yiling was held by one hand by each man, and with tears in her eyes she looked at Zhong Ao, whose face was full of heartache.

Cheng Ying hid in the corner, looking at the crying Yiling, and unexpectedly thought of Jingzhi that day.

He is not even as good as Zhong Ao.

Zhong Ao would at least feel sorry for Yiling, but he didn't even dare to let Jingzhi know about his feelings...

It turns out that Cheng Ying is a complete coward.

“Clang…clang.”

The pistol tapped twice against the gray-brown brick wall.

Kong San was startled and immediately let go of Yiling and reached for the pistol at his waist.

Cheng Ying had long been aiming at Kong San. Kong San missed the opportunity in a split second and had no choice but to raise his hands. "Haha, it's Cheng Ying. I'm just here to play. Don't be nervous."
