Xue Ran woke up in a daze in the morning, without opening his eyes, he felt a little hot on his body, as if something hot was stuck on it.

 She raised her eyes and realized that what she was next to was not any other heat source, but Jiang Xun who was lying on the same pillow with her at the moment,
how come! !

Xue Ran only felt that his scalp was going to explode, and vaguely remembered that she turned herself over and got into his arms last night...

At this moment, with one arm around his shoulder and the other loosely around his waist, the distance was so close that it almost touched the thin muscles of his upper body, Xue Ran could only be thankful that her feet were not messed up.

 She was about to get out of his arms quietly, when Jiang Xun frowned as soon as she moved, as if she was about to wake up, Xue Ran subconsciously closed her eyes,

She didn't know why she was pretending to be asleep right now, but she felt that the knuckles around her shoulders were loosened, and the hands on her waist were also pulled away.

After being silent for a while, Xue Ran was about to wake up. He didn't want to open his eyes to see Jiang Xun looking at him sideways, with a faint smile in his eyes.

She immediately realized that she had been teased, and immediately suppressed her emotions, never showing a look of shame and annoyance as the other party wished,
Xue Ran stood up, quickly got out of bed and stood firm as if nothing had happened, and said in a cold tone:
 "Okay, I think I made it very clear last night, so there's no need to repeat it."

She looked sideways at the other party, and said in a neutral voice:
"Before no one finds out, you hurry up and go."

Seeing Jiang Xun sitting up slowly from the quilt, holding the gauze on his waist and looking at himself,

"I'm hurt."

"Didn't you hurt me too?"

As Xue Ran said, he turned his head to leave, but the person behind him suddenly got off the bed and followed him a few steps away.
"Who are you going to find?"

"The one called White Zinc?"

He stepped forward and grabbed Xue Ran's arm, and said in a sharp voice:
"You really believe that he won't hurt you?"

 "Are you so sure that he will protect you in case of danger?"

"I don't need anyone to protect me." Xue Ran brushed his hand away,
 "Jiang Xun, until now, do you think I'm still the weak and stupid Xue Ran who will obediently obey your orders?"

 "I do not have!"

 He bit his lip, his voice suddenly weakened,
 "I didn't want to instruct you, I... I just like you, I haven't liked anyone! I want you to look at me, don't look at other people. "

He lowered his eyelashes, and his voice was so small that it was almost inaudible,

"I don't know why, the first time I saw you, I couldn't help but want to get close to you. Just when I thought that you finally didn't resist that much, I managed to get closer to you, but I... I made you angry again ,

 You made me unable to get in touch with you, you want to disassociate me, I know you hate me, at that time I thought I was going crazy. "

"you……"

Looking at him, Xue Ran somehow felt a prick in his heart, but he restrained himself and did not show it, his tone was still cold,
"I'm afraid you haven't figured it out yet. Do you know where you are now? Do you know my relationship with that person?"

What kind of cruel and unscrupulous person Xue Shiyan is, she thought it was impossible for Jiang Xun not to understand,

 "I was trained by him alone. How far do you think I can be from him?"

"Xue Ran, you don't have to pretend to be a bad person in front of me, I know you are not."

"Don't think you know me well, do you really know what kind of person I am?" 
"You are, the only person I want to protect." He said deeply and firmly without blinking his eyelashes:
"If you think you're a bad person, I think... I don't care anymore."

"Looks like you're really crazy,"

Xue Ran clenched her fists unconsciously, feeling that An Yu's voice sounded in her ears, she looked at him with a sense of distance in her eyes, and said in a cold tone:

 "Have you thought about the consequences?"

 "I know that what I said today and what I did may regret it in the future, but now I really can't care about anything..."

"If you do this, you will only hurt me!"

Seeing her turn her head away, with disappointment in her eyes, Jiang Xun suddenly felt a pain in her heart, and subconsciously wanted to hold her back, but saw the other party's face suddenly change, and said in an alert voice:

 "someone is coming!"

 Xue Ran turned sideways slightly. In the quiet air, she heard footsteps gradually approaching, and she couldn't help but think:
Xue Shiyan's trust in her has not yet been stabilized, let alone An Yu, who has never believed in her. Jiang Xun is An Yu's son and an inspector of the Special Investigation Bureau, with a complicated identity. Run away, come to her room in the middle of the night, let people see, it is too easy to arouse suspicion,
She couldn't help thinking that if Jiang Xun was handed over at this time and the relationship with him was separated, it would surely save a lot of unnecessary trouble.

The footsteps outside the door were getting closer and closer, but Jiang Xun did not hide. It seemed that as long as Xue Ran said something at this time, even if he was asked to open the door and go out, handing himself into the hands of those people, he would willingly do so .

He stood on the spot without moving, looked at the person in front of him who was deep in thought with folded arms, finally saw Xue Ran raised his eyes, and said in a stern tone in a low voice:

"Why are you standing there, hurry up and hide!!"

 .
When Jiang Xun's figure flashed into the bathroom, there was a hasty knock on the door,

Xue Ran's folded arms sank, and he walked forward slowly.

Unscrewing the door, An Yu raised her eyes slightly and smiled at herself,
Xue Ran had known her smile for a long time and never had any kind intentions. He glanced at the people following her and asked:
"What happened?"

"Listen to what they said," An Yu looked at her, and whispered meaningfully: "I found the guard tied to a chair this morning, but Jiang Xun disappeared. Where are the others?"

"how could I know."

"You don't know?" An Yu slightly raised her eyebrows,
"In this case, do you mind if I go in and search?"

"of course."

Xue Ran took a step back as he spoke, and the woman's high-heeled feet stepped in.

The room had already been cleaned by Xue Ran, leaving no trace of blood or suspicious smell. An Yu took a look around, walked around the room for a while, and then stopped at the door of the bathroom.

She turned her face to Xue Ran and raised the corners of her lips,

"Can I go in and have a look?" 
Xue Ran felt nervous unconsciously, then nodded indifferently.

The door was pushed open by the woman not very gently, but the inside was empty, Xue Ran couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, his eyes unconsciously glanced at a window on the side of the wall, and the woman's gaze also fell on it,

"Is it alright?"

Seeing that An Yu hadn't planned to leave yet, Xue Ran said in a cold voice:

"Do you still think he's here with me? Do you think I hid Jiang Xun in the closet or under the bed? He's your son. If you don't see him, you come to ask me for someone?"

 At the end of the sentence, the other party turned his face, staring at himself with a pair of beautiful and sly eyes, and suddenly said with a smile:
 "Because Jiang Xun is my son, I know that if he is not here, he must be looking for you."

Xue Ran was startled for a moment, seeing the other person raised his foot and took a step towards him, he leaned into her ear and said:
"Do you think if I arrest you now, he will continue to hide and not appear?"

"Are you trying to use me as a bait?" Xue Ran said, "Jiang Xun is also the inspector of the Special Investigation Bureau after all. How do you know that his purpose of coming here is not to catch us all?"

 "What do you think is the reason why he came here so desperately? I think he can't hold anything else in his mind now."

 An Yu stared at Xue Ran with a pair of smiling eyes, as if she wanted to penetrate into the person's body, unreservedly dig out all the other's hidden,
Xue Ran still had no expression on his face, and only lowered his eyes slightly, but even if she could barely hold back, she knew that there was no chance of winning a psychological battle with a person like An Yu, so she decided to take a gamble.
 She was silent for a while, then suddenly raised her eyes to look at the woman in front of her, and said coldly:

 "You're actually trying to kill me, aren't you?"

Without waiting for the other party to answer, Xue Ran continued:
"From the first time I saw me by Xue Shiyan's side more than ten years ago, I thought so."

 After the words fell, I finally caught some shock and surprise from An Yu's flickering eyes,
 The woman's expression confirmed her guess, and some vague memories flooded into her brain at this time,

 At this moment, Xue Ran felt as if he had returned to more than ten years ago, but he was standing in An Yu's perspective, watching Xue Shiyan gently teach his young self how to use a dagger in his hand,
"You've never seen him so patient, so focused,"

Xue Ran said: "Because of jealousy, a feeling you have never had before, which makes you feel panic and anger."

 "So you hate me and him even more. You hate him for being where he is today but still obsessed with the past. You hate him for having a weakness, but his weakness is not you."

As Xue Ran said this, some trivial pictures in his mind gradually became clearer. An Yu before meeting An Yu didn't say a word, but her face became more and more gloomy.
"You want to get rid of me, but this is not your usual style of behavior. You will wantonly burn, kill and plunder because of hatred and pursuit of spiritual satisfaction, but you can't tolerate yourself becoming unrecognizable because of jealousy.

You can't believe it, or you can't admit it, but you have already fallen in love with that person. " 
Xue Ran looked at her, and suddenly said in a mocking tone: "So this is what you said, losing principles and bottom lines?"

She saw An Yu squeeze her hands so hard that her fingertips turned white.

"You didn't do it yourself, but you erased this memory of me in the group, and people tied me to the underground garage. I thought I was about to die, but in the end I saved my life,"

As the words fell, Xue Ran felt as if he was once again in the cold underground garage. The severe winter wind poured into the exhaust vent, and the chill that fell on the person seemed to be able to penetrate into the bone marrow.
"because……"

 Because...someone saved me...

But when I think about it, my memory suddenly becomes blurred.

That person... who is that person?

 The memory seems to have reached a very critical part, a severe pain came from deep in the brain, Xue Ran couldn't help clenching his fists, and let his fingertips embed the tender flesh in his palm to barely support his body.
She desperately recalled, and felt that she was tied to the iron rod in the corner. With the effect of the medicine, her memory began to be disordered and she began to forget,
It was really cold, the air poured into her nostrils like icicles, she was so cold that she could hardly breathe, the moment she was about to give up, she saw a little boy wrapped in a black padded coat squatting down and approaching her,
He untied the rope around her wrist, stuffed a key into her hand, and then ran away quickly. She didn't even know his name, but only saw his green back.

"because……"

At this moment, Xue Ran seemed to suddenly realize something, his eyes fixed, and he said in a cold voice:

"Because I finally broke free and used the wire hidden on my body to pry open the door lock and escape."

"You're right," An Yu said, "and I can kill you at any time! In fact, when I saw you in the factory, I recognized you. The reason why I didn't do anything to you is that you can stand up well now." Here, because of your existence, I will always remind me how stupid I was at that time, but there is one thing you are wrong about, "

She looked at Xue Ran coldly, but said softly as if she didn't care:

"I don't love him, and I can never love him."

The woman turned around, her slender figure disappeared around the corner, and the air became silent.
Xue Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief, and finally solved a knot in his heart——

It seems that the encounter between her and Jiang Xun was not intentionally designed by An Yu, and she was not a pawn to hold the other party back.
