Jian Xi looked at the center of the screen, the name of the person on the caller ID, and slowly leaned against the wall, like a prey being cornered, tightly pursed his lips, but could not move.

Time passed by, and the vibrating bell rang behind the empty building without stopping.

***

Before one o'clock that afternoon, Yu Anlan sat on the back seat of the Sanye Cafe and dialed Yu Yan's number.

There are not many connections between them. In order to avoid certain eyeliners left by the original book villain Han Jue in Chengyun Technology, all important things are being carried out in secret—even so, some time ago, he and Song Fengyi Judging from the obstacles encountered in colleges and universities, it is very likely that Han Jue will intervene in it.

It's just that the other party's view of him may temporarily remain as "somewhat annoying and troublesome person"-the real transaction content between him and Yu Yan, even within Chengyun Technology, few people know.

The interior decoration of Sanye Cafe is pure white, with frosted hard tables and chairs, which has a man-made natural feeling.Among the customers who come and go, half of them are tourists visiting the science and technology park, and the atmosphere is pleasant.

The phone was connected quickly, and Yu Yan's slightly anxious voice came from the opposite side: "Are you under the building now?"

Yu Anlan smiled: "More than an hour before the appointed time, I won't wait under your building openly to make people more suspicious of me."

In the coffee shop, a group of noisy college students left, leaving behind a girl in a gorgeous dress and even a gold-pink wig, who seemed to be anxiously waiting for someone.

Yu Yan's voice seemed to be annoyed, and he said with a little chill: "I heard recently that someone is asking around for your whereabouts. You said you didn't want to arouse suspicion, so how do you explain it? You brought your own assistant with you recently. , hang around in a high-profile manner in the university town, looking for excellent collaborators?"

Yu Anlan leaned on the back of the chair, looked casually at the plant-shaped decorations around, and said with a chuckle, "Of course, so that those who investigate me have a target to chase after."

Yu Yan said anxiously: "Could it be that you did it on purpose?"

Yu Anlan: "As long as you can keep the agreement between the two of us a secret, they won't touch you. Have you taken care of the office space I mentioned before?"

That area is close to the experimental base of Chengyun Technology, but it is not within the scope of Chengyun Technology. It looks like an inconspicuous place, which is hidden enough.

For Yu Anlan today, it is best to keep quiet and keep a low profile before fully preparing the stage and the extras, and tricking the group of people who interfered with his formation of the group into the game.

Yu Yan: "You mean the area adjacent to the experimental base? I can do this part, and it won't make anyone suspect our connection. But... you and Han Jue, or those who Man, is there really any hatred?"

The person on the other side was hesitating, as if he was struggling to think of words.

After a while, the other end of the phone finally said: "Last time, you were also the one who provided Han Jue's list of illegal industries... I knew I had to destroy the Han Group, because I wanted them to pay for what happened to Luo Chenxing. But you Doing these things, investigating the Han family, and even taking the initiative to contact those people, I don't know why you would take the risk to do these things. Even if you don't do this..."

Yu Anlan lowered her head and said with a sneer, "Even if I don't take the initiative, other people will attack first, won't they? You won't forget, right? When I went bankrupt, how many people threw stones at me.

The more stupid they act against the weaker side, the easier it is to attract their attention... No one is an exception. "

In his previous life, no matter how he tried to avoid it, he would eventually be found, so this time, why did he show mercy?

What's more, he can't go on in a daze this time.He has just figured out his feelings and just started... If these hidden dangers can't be removed early, then if Jian Xi is involved in these things in the future, then his decision to put him by his side will become a problem. mistake.

Yu Anlan suddenly remembered the car accident in her previous life. Before she died, the black figure he vaguely saw lowered her head and kissed her blood-stained lips.At that time, Jian Xi really wanted to say goodbye to him?Among them, is there also some reluctance?

He wavered, Jianxi's resistance and dodge a few days ago was probably his own misunderstanding.Maybe Jian Xi didn't want to avoid herself...

After hearing this, Yu Yan was stunned for a moment on the other end of the phone, as if Yu Anlan who was hostile to him face to face back then, and Yu Anlan who coldly mentioned the word "bankruptcy" at this moment seemed to be two different people. humanlike.

At this time, there was a loud noise from the phone, as if the sound of tableware falling to the ground.

Yu Yan asked in confusion, "Where are you?"

Yu Anlan looked up, and found that a waiter had spilled a cup of coffee next to the table with the golden-pink wig.

"It's okay, let's continue talking about the cooperation of the experimental base." Yu Anlan bypassed the original topic and said.

After more than half an hour, the two finished talking about the details of the cooperation, hung up the phone, and then contacted.

Fifteen minutes before the agreed two o'clock, Yu Anlan received a message on time, from the "collaborator" he had invited: [I'm going to the coffee shop soon, black thick scarf. 】

Yu Anlan turned her head and looked at the five or six people left in the coffee shop, none of them were wearing thick scarves.However, the blonde wig who looked extremely bright before answered a phone call 10 minutes ago and left the shop in a panic, looking as if she had encountered some unexpected emergency, and she had to change her plan.

He instinctively felt something strange, but he couldn't explain why.

At this moment, the glass door was pushed open, and a crisp bell rang, and a tightly wrapped young man walked up to the white cafe door - wearing a thick black scarf.

Yu Anlan looked at him without saying hello, but just observing the other person's expression.

Based on his guess about the other party, it is impossible for the other party not to recognize his appearance.Anyone may forget about a bankrupt young major shareholder who appeared in the entertainment news section, but this person will not. He will definitely collect all the information about the other party before the official meeting, including appearance and personality traits.

Is an overly cautious person.

The boy with the black scarf walked straight up to him, sat down on the empty white seat, nodded to him and said, "Hello."

This voice is completely a girl's voice.

***

Next to the experimental base of Chengyun Technology, in the small conference room.

"I believe in your plan and will join your team." The girl whose face was half covered by a scarf said calmly.

Yu Anlan was slightly surprised, and chuckled lightly, "I didn't expect you to be so eloquent."

Her eyes flicked over Yu Yan on the opposite side and Yu Anlan on one side, she seemed to smile slightly, and said in a low voice: "The authority of the experimental base that President Yu opened to me is higher than originally expected, and, I I believe that the cooperative relationship between the two of you will not be easily destroyed."

Yu Yan showed a subtle expression, and said, "You say you trust him, but the basis is that the word 'relationship' is so vague, which is a bit rash."

He paused, then quickly added: "However, these are your internal issues, and I will not interfere."

Yu Anlan and she watched Yu Yan leave, and they also left through the back door.They didn't go far, and arrived at the new office - which is also the future headquarters of their company.

After reaching the empty floor, Yu Anlan smiled and said, "You don't need to ask, how did Yu Yan and I reach a cooperation?"

It stands to reason that the relationship between the two of them is not harmonious, which is what all reporters guessed.It is even said that the bankruptcy of "Yu Anlan"'s Xinghe brokerage company was also planned by Yu Yan.

In front of Yu Yan just now, she absolutely did not tell the truth.

Xi Yumiao slowly took off the black scarf, and the originally slightly neutral outfit looked much softer now - she looked exactly like the girl with the golden pink wig in the Sanye Cafe just now.

Is it me?

"The process is not important, as long as the result is positive, then I can trust you," Xi Yumiao Wenwen said quietly, looking as if there was no threat, "No matter what method you used to get Mr. Yu's help, I They've all been verified."

Yu Anlan laughed: "Are you staring at everyone?"

Xi Yumiao: "No, just carefully observe the subject before drawing a conclusion. After all, reasonable doubt and a cautious attitude are very important things."

Yu Anlan turned her head to look not far away at the glass wall outside the experimental base, lowered her eyes and said, "Then...you may also agree that there must be a loophole somewhere in the information flow inside Chengyun Technology. I don't believe it, Out of that many people, no one will give information to the outside world."

Although Xi Yumiao hacked into his computer and apparently tapped their phone call just now, it really surprised him, but in this way, it is easier to talk to her about many things—whether they are with Chengyun Technology or not. There is no way to explain the relationship between him and Han Jue, the villain of the original book, with common sense.

Since she only believed in her own eyes and skills, she would hold on to any clues, even if they seemed abnormal at first glance, until she figured it out thoroughly.

Xi Yumiao narrowed her eyes slightly, and said slowly, "You recognized me as someone from the cafe at that time, but you didn't care about being bugged?"

Yu Anlan: "If it can increase your sense of security, let you trust us."

Xi Yumiao suddenly smiled: "It seems that you are skeptical of other people, even if I suddenly change my clothes, even if I suddenly become a different kind of person, you won't be surprised.

But has your skepticism suddenly become useless when it comes to the child in your care?Maybe he doesn't need your care and worry all the time like he looks like on the surface. "

Yu Anlan's nerves tensed up, and she immediately thought that if the other party could even hack into the Jade Bird Satellite TV's camera, then she must have a certain understanding of her relationship with Jian Xi.

"What do you want to say?" He said coldly.

Xi Yumiao said indifferently: "I'm just telling you by the way. After all, I've seen more videos than you. If he's hiding something—for example, he may have met someone but didn't tell you ?”

Yu Anlan couldn't care about her blunt tone, and for a moment, she remembered the "acquaintance" that Jian Xi mentioned that night on the sofa in the living room.

At that time, he was distracted by the other party's words, and forgot his original intention - at that time, he wanted to remind Jian Xi to pay attention to whether there were suspicious people around him.

However, Jian Xi bypassed this topic, avoiding it lightly and cleverly.

Who is that acquaintance?

Yu Anlan turned to look at Xi Yumiao, but he also knew that the other party was not obligated to find out such details.

It was getting dark outside, and Jian Xi refused to take him home. At this moment, he should have gone home after school.

He knew that his worry was a little sudden, but since he left home today, the mess and lingering conjectures that had been lingering in his heart made him anxious.

Maybe I misunderstood, maybe Jian Xi avoided her, not because she was afraid of being alone with her, afraid of her touch, but because of what happened?

Yu Anlan took out her phone, feeling her fingertips tremble slightly.He forced himself to calm down and think carefully, not to scare the other party.

He edited the message: 【Are you home yet?

——Yu Anlan]

Taking a deep breath and pressing the send button, Yu Anlan said goodbye to Xi Yumiao, and went to the garage to pick up her car.

On the way to the garage, he couldn't help but start to recall that Jian Xi's reaction in the past few days was indeed different from before.Originally, even if he had reminded him many times, Jian Xi would still cling to him unconsciously. Sometimes, after the other party found out that something was wrong, he would dodge with reddish ears, looking at him at a loss.

But a few days ago, when he mentioned the matter of leaving school, Jian Xi showed a sad expression and avoided his gaze...

It was he who bullied Jian Xi, misunderstood Jian Xi, and forced the other party to accept him with such an untender kiss - he shouldn't be in such a hurry.

If something bad happened to the other party...

When Yu Anlan recalled the scene when they first met, she felt a tightness in her chest, clutched her phone tightly, and dialed the number at home on impulse.

The music sounded, but there was no response for a long time.

His expression gradually turned cold, he got in the car, called Jian Xi's cell phone again, and put it aside hands-free.

The sky had completely darkened, the street lights were on, and rows of white lights illuminated the wide road, and they stepped back quickly outside the glass window.

He first drove to Mingying High School. There were almost no students at the school's iron gate.Just as he stopped the car to ask questions, he happened to hear a few senior students passing by behind the car. He said that the one in the ordinary class of their school had disappeared for a while in the afternoon, and left the school in a hurry as soon as school was over. .

Yu Anlan knew that this could only refer to Jianxi.

The call on the mobile phone was not connected until the ringtone automatically stopped.

He thought with some self-mockery that this might just be a false alarm. After all, if the other party was taking a shower or fell asleep, it was entirely possible that he hadn't heard the phone ring.

As for continuing to fight like this... probably, some possessiveness is too much.

No matter whether Jian Xi is at home or not, even if he can call himself a "boyfriend" in name, he has no right to be so lenient...

Yu Anlan drove that car from Mingying High School to her home.

Along the way, he thought a lot and wanted to understand a lot.If such a sense of distance is what Jian Xi wants, then he has no reason to force the other party to accept his excessive demands.

As long as Jian Xi opens his mouth and expresses his wish, he will not cross the line.

Yu Anlan smiled slowly, stopped the car, and took out the key.The door of the house has already arrived, and he doesn't have to be afraid at all, and he doesn't have to be afraid of the situation on the other side of the door that he doesn't want to face.

The door lock was unlocked, and he walked in. The faint outdoor light spilled into the room from the window, and some footsteps came from upstairs.

He looked up and saw Jian Xi wearing a new beige pajamas, wiping her wet hair with a towel, and coming out of the bathroom.

Seeing him with blank eyes, Jian Xi froze for a moment, then pursed her lips, lowered her eyes slightly, smiled hastily, and said in a low voice, "You're back."
