"What does an ordinary dagger represent?" Shen Haojin asked subconsciously.

"It's an ordinary dagger, yes, but look at this again." Shi Yule clicked the mouse to display both pictures on the screen, forming a contrast. "This dagger is not ordinary iron, but special black iron. Weapons made of this kind of stuff are quite sharp.

This piece is a small piece of dark iron taken from the bomb, and the two are the same.

I have checked and found that this kind of black iron is not available in the domestic market at all. It is produced in the Western Regions. "

"It's the Western Region again..." Shen Haojin felt dizzy when he heard the name of the Western Region. "Xen Chen, what are you thinking about?"

Shen Haojin saw that Sheng Jichen was thoughtful but silent, so she subconsciously asked him.

"It's nothing. The enemy is hiding, but we are still hiding. Even if we know that this black iron comes from the Western Region, we can't do anything.

At present, we can only put more embankments in place, not only in Binshi, but also in the Shijia Villa in Country M. "Sheng Xinchen reminded everyone. "The soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it with the soil. We have all experienced the big storms like Shi Minglong and Lin Boyuan, so why are we still afraid of this trivial matter? "

Although Sheng Xinchen spoke easily, he already had other thoughts in his mind.

After everyone left his study, he took out his mobile phone and called his assistant Zhao Zhonghan to make arrangements for the Sheng Group.

These days, Shi Xiyue has been paying attention to Sheng Xichen's movements, whether in the company or at home. She has arranged her own 'eyeliner'.

Ever since Zhao Zhonghan lost an arm many years ago, Sheng Xichen's tasks for him have become much lighter.

Suddenly, he had been working in the company these days, how could he not let Shi Xiyue detect the abnormality.

After nightfall, Shi Xiyue brought a glass of milk and placed it in the bedroom, waiting for Sheng Xichen who came back from the study to sleep.

It wasn't until almost ten o'clock that he opened the door and entered the house.

"Yueyue, why aren't you asleep yet?" Sheng Jichen didn't expect that she would still be sitting on the bed reading a magazine.

"I'm waiting for you."

Hearing this, he felt even more sorry.

If he had known she was waiting for him tonight, he should have finished work earlier.

"I'm going to take a shower first."

"Okay." Shi Xiyue nodded and continued to look at the magazine in his hand.

After a while, Sheng Xinchen came out of the bathroom with a white bath towel wrapped around his waist. The towel in his hand elegantly wiped his black hair.

"Come here and let me help you." Shi Xiyue put down the magazine in her hand, sat up straight and gestured to Sheng Xichen.

He walked over and lay down next to her, handing the towel to her.

The scent of shower gel and shampoo mixed together and filled Shi Xiyue's nose.

The towel in her hand wiped the short hair bit by bit, and her warm palms held his handsome face. Even though he is past middle age, his appearance is still the same as it was more than ten years ago.

Years have gone by, but no traces have been left on Sheng Xichen's face.

"Yueyue..." Sheng Xichen held her slender arm and said softly, "I want to tell you something."

"Yeah, I'm listening." She responded, holding the towel in her hand and stroking the wet hair from his ears.

"The company has an urgent medicinal business, and I may need to travel for a few days. There is a serious shortage of that medicine in the warehouse at the hospital. I'm afraid that my people can't make it, so I have to go there myself."

"Okay..." Shi Xiyue didn't say much and only replied with one word.

The brief reply surprised Sheng Jichen. She had almost always asked him to the end about his matters before. Why did you agree so hastily this time?

"Aren't you going to ask me what kind of medicine business I am in?"

Shi Xiyue knew more about medicinal materials than Sheng Xichen. He didn't want to use this excuse, but he couldn't think of other projects.

"I will go wherever you go. Is it necessary for me to ask so many questions?"

Hearing this, Sheng Xianchen took the towel from her hand and threw it on the bedside table. He held her arms with both hands and looked at him seriously.

"What do you mean."

"What I mean is that wherever you go, I will be there." Shi Xiyue replied slowly with a smile. "Do you want to leave me alone?

In the past, when the children were young, I could listen to you in everything, but it is different now. The children are adults, they have their own minds and can protect themselves.

You don't need me to protect you anymore. If you don't want me to be with you, then where can I go? "

"..." Sheng Xinchen frowned, not knowing what to say.

"Do you think that I, Mrs. Sheng, really just grow flowers at home, drink tea, and go shopping with other ladies?

I know what you are thinking. "

Shi Xiyue poked Sheng Xichen's smooth chest with her finger.

"..."

"You are going to the Western Region, and you are going to find Yixue, right? Find out if the person behind the scenes is Yixue?"

"..." Sheng Xinchen remained silent again and again, just because the little woman said it right.

He thought that after so many years of peace, Shi Xiyue was no longer as alert as before. He didn't expect that she knew everything, but she never told him explicitly.

"Yixue is my aunt. I have always wanted to understand how she left and disappeared, not only me, but also my mother.

Grandma asked us to take good care of Yixue before she died, but she disappeared just a few months ago.

The Western Region is where Yi Xue grew up. I should have gone there many years ago. Only by finding the person behind the scenes, we...children, everything can be calm, right? "

“If all this is really done by Yixue, and the Western Region is still her home base, it would be too dangerous.

No, absolutely not, you can’t come with me..." Go.

Sheng Xianchen was a little excited and repeatedly murmured his rejection to her.

Shi Xiyue held his cheek and covered his mouth with her lips, blocking out all his unfinished words.

"If you were gone, do you think I would live alone?" Shi Xiyue looked at Sheng Xichen with tears in her eyes, her warm palms repeatedly caressing his handsome face. "Although we are an old couple now, we can't be like we were when we were teenagers.

But don't forget, the children have really grown up. Even if I die, they can take care of themselves. I won't let others bully me like a child.

I have no regrets in dying, I just want to be by your side. "

Sheng Xichen didn't know what to say, so he took Shi Xiyue into his arms and held her tightly.

In the study, he never revealed a word to Shen Haojin and the others that he wanted to explore the Western Regions.

I thought that if I could hide them, I would naturally be able to fend off Shi Xiyue. How could I ever think that my wife, who was so smart, could hide even half of it in front of her?

"Okay, then let's go together, just the two of us."
