love across mountains and seas

Chapter 17 The most dangerous thing is falling in love with you

The moon is dark and the wind is high, and the night is quiet.

Walking out quietly from the guest bedroom, Chu Ran glanced in the direction of the master bedroom, and there was no light coming through the crack in the door.

After gently closing the door, she tiptoed to the study on the second floor, turned on the flashlight of her watch, and went to the drawer of the desk again.

This time she came prepared.Facing the still locked drawer, Chu Ran opened the key bag, and there were two small keys with slightly strange shapes mixed in with the door and motorcycle keys.

Taking out the key in the shape of a letter, Chu Ran opened the drawer twice and adjusted it a few times.When it is inserted again, the lock hole turns along with the key.

The drawer is open!

A brown-black soft leather book was lying in the drawer, and there were two kraft paper bags under the book.

Gently moving the book aside, Chu Ran took the information bag below and opened it.

Photos, photos, still photos.

They are all photos of Tan Miao.

It seems that when the three were in their 40s, they were in the hospital after the accident, and there are still photos of the scene of the car accident that have been processed.

After adjusting the order of the photos and putting them back into the bag, Chu Ran took out the paper inside again.

Hospital reports, physical exams, medical reports, and copies of the accident driver's notes and accident files.

The brows gathered together a little bit.Chu Ran knows that having money can turn ghosts around.But when this kind of thing that should not appear in the hands of a citizen was presented to her in this way, she still felt a little unspeakably uncomfortable.

After resealing the document photo, Chu Ran took another document bag underneath.

Opening it this time made her heart beat faster.

There are several documents and contracts marked with the heavy stone logo, and a red-headed document is pressed at the bottom.

Taking a deep breath, and steadying his trembling hands, Chu Ran forced himself to calm down.

If she really...

Open the document, the plan for the second half of the year, the cooperation project for the next period, and a red-headed document for real estate bidding.Chu Ran looked through it, and the date was 3 days ago.

Before I had time to examine it carefully, my heart felt like a boulder was pressed down, and it fell down little by little.

The most basic routine process of bidding is that the sale date of the bidding documents should not be less than 5 days.

In the dark room, only the light of a watch torch was shining alone.However, the light is too weak to illuminate the huge study room.

Without further hesitation, Chu Ran took out his mobile phone, took photos of the documents page by page, and then tidied up the information bag and put it back in the drawer.After she had packed everything, the soft leather book that had been put aside at first attracted her attention again.

Opening the notebook, Chu Ran did not expect that it contained Tong Yuyi's diary.

After just one glance, he closed the diary. Chu Ran told himself that no matter what, this was Tong Yuyi's privacy, and she could not infringe on other people's privacy.It was like a contest between the angel and the devil in her heart, and another voice told her that Tong Yuyi was one of the targets of the mission, and now she could be regarded as a criminal suspect, and her privacy might be the evidence of her crime.

What if this diary could prove her innocence?

In the end, it was reason or emotion that Chu Ran didn't know that had the upper hand.

The book is very thick, and the retro style of the book makes it look extraordinarily old-fashioned.

On the first page, the recorded time was 8 years ago, when Tong Yuyi was still in college.

What the diary records are not the trivial things in life, but the feelings and touches brought to her by some of her thoughts and external things.Different from the seemingly stable and slightly indifferent Tong Yuyi's words, even if there are not many descriptions in words, one can see her enthusiasm, vigor and... her dream.

That yearning and anticipation for the future and freedom became less and less as Chu Ran slowly turned backwards.

She didn't guess where Tong Yuyi's gradual changes came from until she turned to a page that had no date but a poem.

There are a few lines in the poem that she is familiar with, but she can't remember who wrote the poem for a while.

By accident, he took out his mobile phone and took a picture of the poem.Delicate and powerful, clean and tidy handwriting, just like Tong Yuyi's people.

That poem reads:

Your child is not your child,

They are the children born of life's desire for itself.

They came into this world through you,

But not because of you,

They are with you, but they do not belong to you.

All you can give them is your love,

It's not what you think,

Because they have their own minds.

It is their bodies that you can shelter,

but not their souls,

For their souls belong to tomorrow,

Belongs to tomorrow that you can't reach even in your dreams.

You can do your best to be like them,

But don't let them become like you,

For life does not go backwards nor dwell in the past.

You are a bow, and children are arrows shot from you.

The archer looked at the target on the road to the future,

He pulled you away with all his might,

to make his arrows go fast and far.

with a happy heart,

Bend in the hand of the archer,

For he loves arrows that fly all the way,

Also love the incredibly stable bow.

Close the book and turn it from back to front. On the last page, the date is a week ago.There were only a few words in that diary, but it made Chu Ran lose his mind again.

"The new little secretary, something different. She's... nice."

Without flipping back, Chu Ran closed the diary, put it back in place and locked the drawer.

He took his mobile phone and left the study room, and sneaked back to the guest bedroom again.Go back to the bedroom and put the photos you took into the encrypted folder.Chu Ran's mobile phone looks like an ordinary domestic mobile phone, but it is actually a police mobile phone with anti-tracking, anti-eavesdropping and stealing secrets.

Opening the curtains and lying back on the bed, Chu Ran looked out into the night.

There are no stars, only a crescent moon hanging high in the night sky.

"Is there anyone you can't forget?"

When the words were asked, Tong Yuyi paused.She didn't answer, but turned around and walked to Chu Ran to stand still.

The four eyes met, all were silent.

After a while, Tong Yuyi raised his hand to caress Chu Ran's cheek.

"Why forget?"

The temperature of the palm penetrated the skin, and Chu Ran felt that the place where Tong Yuyi touched was so warm that it was a little hot.

"If it's a bad memory, it's better to forget it. People should be happier in life, and let the past go."

Putting down his hands, Tong Yuyi lowered his head and chuckled.

"Chu Ran, do you miss home? Do you miss your father and mother?"

Nodding, Chu Ran didn't look at Tong Yuyi but lowered his head.

"Go home and see them when you have time. When you want to ask for leave, you can tell me directly."

Chu Ran knew what she should say, but at this moment, she couldn't lie to such Tong Yuyi.

"They... all passed away."

This time, Tong Yuyi was stunned, she looked at Chu Ran, her eyes changed from surprise to unbearable to pity.

Chu Ran kept his head down, so naturally he didn't see Tong Yuyi's expression until he was embraced by a soft embrace.

Without too many words and unnecessary actions, she hugged her like a mother, a sister, and... like a lover.

Closing her eyes, she wrapped her arms around the waist of the person in her arms and hugged her even tighter.

At this second, remove all disguises and stop thinking.Chu Ran hugged Tong Yuyi, feeling the warmth and love she had never experienced before.

One second, two seconds, three seconds, I don't know how long it has passed, the time is long and short in this hug, as if it is fleeting, but it is enough to reminisce for a lifetime.

Chu Ran admitted that she was greedy for the beauty of this moment, but she also clearly knew her identity and their position.

Let go of the arms around the opponent's waist, and the next second, Chu Ran hugged Tong Yuyi horizontally.

The surprise lasted only for a moment, and the next moment Tong Yuyi wrapped his arms around Chu Ran's neck and leaned into her arms.

Chu Ran carried Tong Yuyi to the master bedroom, put him gently on the bed, and covered her with the quilt.

Tong Yuyi showed a rare obedience throughout the whole process. She watched Chu Ran do this for her, and then sat by her bed.

Chu Ran: "Sleep, I will accompany you."

Pulling back a corner of the quilt, Tong Yuyi said to Chu Ran, "Come up."

Although it was still an order, the tone was full of tenderness.

The few actions just now made the loose bathrobe even more messy, and the large skin on the collarbone on the chest was reflected in Chu Ran's eyes.People who have just bathed seem to have moisture in their eyes.It is said that women are made of water. Chu Ran always thought that her love of drinking water was an excellent interpretation of this sentence, until she saw Tong Yuyi at this time.

Her breathing became chaotic in an instant, she was only in her early twenties, and she was full of enthusiasm. A woman like Tong Yuyi, who was usually out of reach, was lying within her reach at this moment, and, as long as she was willing... .

This is the "crisis" that Chu Ran has encountered since she was a police officer, and it makes her most at a loss and heart-pounding.God knows, she almost used up all her willpower to restrain her emotions in body and mind.

Holding Tong Yuyi's hand, covering the quilt again, looking at the person in front of him with puzzled eyes, Chu Ran spoke.

"Tong Yuyi, are you pitying me?"

The gentleness faded away, and his gaze gradually changed from doubt to coldness.The temperature in his hand disappeared, Tong Yuyi withdrew his hand back.She stared at Chu Ran expressionlessly for a while, then pulled the quilt and turned around, leaving only a back view for the person who bowed his head alone.

My heart felt like I had run for ten kilometers by myself, it was empty and sore.

Chu Ran took a deep look at Tong Yuyi, stood up from the bed, and walked out of the master bedroom.

More dangerous than mission failure is falling in love with you.
