Six Hundred and Forty, Stay with Her All Night (5)
"...Thank you." Halfway through the meal, Bai Suye finally spoke and was the first to break the silence.
"Don't thank me, I didn't mean well." Ye Xiao raised his eyes and glanced at her, "Don't think that I will let you go if you are sick."
She smiled and said, "I know you don't have good intentions, but I still want to thank you. No matter what, it was you who gave me the antipyretic medicine, which made me feel better."
"Those medicines in the medicine box..." Ye Xiao said this, stopped eating, and looked at her with a smile, "Why, what happened ten years ago still left a shadow in your heart, Minister Bai? Did it? That kind of thing is also afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night, so you have insomnia, depression, or mental problems?"
He didn't want to admit that there was still a bit of temptation and a bit of expectation in his tone.
How much impact did that year of separation have on her? Or, in fact, it was only him who suffered from the beginning to the end.
Is it just him?
Bai Suye paused for breath.
She didn't expect that he would see her private medicine. She wanted to be strong, and she didn't want anyone to know where she was most vulnerable and vulnerable, especially not him.
"Although I am cruel, I still lost human lives ten years ago, so I do feel a little uncomfortable when I think about it occasionally. However, it is not to the level you think. Those medicines were given by us as undercover agents. Everything needs to be prepared from time to time, so you don’t have to think too much." Bai Suye deliberately acted calm and refreshing. After taking a sip of porridge, he continued to speak unhurriedly: "Back then, I was just performing tasks in accordance with the orders from above. If I can live up to the government and the people below me who can pay taxes, what should I fear?"
I have long known that she has such an attitude - ruthless, calm and cruel. However, when these words came out clearly from her mouth, they still stung every nerve in him.
"You are worthy of the government and the people. So, Bai Suye, are you worthy of me?" He suddenly felt that taking care of her here was just a shame! "Are you worthy of my dead brothers?"
Every word seemed to come out of his lips. There was a deep anger on his face, and he pinched her chin hard with his long fingers.
Bai Suye was already weak at the moment, but when he pinched her, her face became even more ugly. But he didn't struggle, he just held his wrist gently with his hand, and looked into his eyes resolutely and straightly, "Since ancient times, there has been a dilemma between loyalty and righteousness. In the face of national justice, do you think the love between brothers and love between children... is worth mentioning? ?"
Not worth mentioning? So, in her eyes,
The emotions he put in were just weapons she used to kill him!
"So, if you could turn back time, you would still make this choice? Really?" His breathing became heavier.
Her eyelashes fluttered, and finally she just uttered one word from her lips, "...yes."
If she still had a choice, how would she choose? In the past ten years, Bai Suye has asked himself this question countless times. Morality and responsibility, in the end, maybe she still has to choose responsibility...
The strength in Ye Xiao's hand tightened, and the veins on his forehead almost stretched out. The red bloodshot eyes made him look violent and cruel. He wished he could just strangle her to death!
However, in the end, before he lost control of his emotions again, he let go of her, threw her away, and walked away indifferently.
The door was slammed shut. Bai Suye sat there and took several heavy breaths before his breathing became really smooth. However, my chest was still as tight as a boulder.
In fact, it's good for two people to be so incompatible. Otherwise, in the short 22 days left, how can she let go of this relationship and how can she feel relieved?
She has no confidence at all...
After sitting there for who knows how long, the porridge on the table became cold, and her cell phone rang. I took it over and read it. It was a very short text message.
——Don’t appear in front of me these days, otherwise, there will be consequences at your own risk!
You can feel the anger in his voice across the screen. Bai Suye put down the phone silently.
It seems that these short 30 days are really going to give her an advantage...
…………………………
In the following week, Ye Xiao never came to see her again, and she naturally had no contact with Ye Xiao. At first, she started to have insomnia again, but in the next two days, she adjusted and slept well.
Probably, Ye Xiao should end the 30-day agreement early.
But what she didn't expect was...
A week later, the two people still met...
On Monday, she was immersed in sorting out new assignment materials in her office. Yun Chuan called.
"Susu, are you free tonight?"
"What's wrong?"
"There is a very important product dinner tonight. I am missing a female companion. The only thing I can think of now is you."
Bai Suye looked at the time and said, "Okay, what time is it? I'll go there after work, can you make it in time?"
"Of course I can make it in time. The dinner is at eight o'clock."
“What color dress do I need to wear?”
"Purple is fine, I'm wearing a purple tie today."
"Okay. When the time comes, drive there and just send me the address of the dinner party."
Bai Suye didn't reject Yun Chuan. He had no other reason. In fact, he figured it out on his own.
Her life is very long. Whether it is for herself or to save the elders in the family from worry, she cannot really be single all her life.
Yun Chuan is a nice person. She had no intention of falling in love with him right away. However, after getting in touch at this stage, she felt that there was no need to resist.
Yun Chuan's ideas actually coincided with hers. In today's fast-food society, the model of "falling in love once you meet, sleeping with each other" is not suitable for them. It's good to try being friends first.
Neither of you need to feel too much pressure.
Bai Suye got off work, and in order to match him, she dressed up specially before going to the dinner party.
When she arrived, Yun Chuan was waiting for her outside the door, well dressed.
"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Bai Suye said apologetically: "There was a traffic jam on the road for a while, so I was a little late."
"It's okay, I just arrived." Yun Chuan slightly bent his arm, and Bai Suye put his hand on his arm knowingly.
When the two people were about to go in, they saw a motorcade approaching from far away. The bright light is very dazzling, making the night look like daytime. Bai Suye subconsciously looked sideways and saw the familiar car in the convoy with the familiar license plate...
"What is the occasion of tonight's dinner?" Bai Suye asked Yun Chuan.
"It's run by the Chamber of Commerce, and all the people who come here are people from the business community."
Ye Xiao is a person who can get involved in military, politics, and business. It is not surprising that he would appear here.
Bai Suye recalled the sinister warning given by Riyexiao before he left, and she retracted her mind, "Let's go in."
There are so many more updates today, so is there any cutie willing to give me a monthly ticket as a reward?
