"It's okay, thank you...eh? It's you...?!!!"

After Wei Xiang stood firm, she quickly thanked the stranger who supported her. At this time, after seeing the stranger's appearance clearly, she let out an unexpected exclamation.

Niu Tao looked at Wei Xiang's pretty face and found it familiar. After thinking about it for a moment, the picture in his memory overlapped with the face of the beautiful woman in front of him.

"Wei Xiang, it's you!" Niu Tao remembered. The woman in front of him was the woman he had helped when he was working at the construction site. He also met her later when he was delivering express.

Wei Xiang didn't expect that the person who helped him was Niu Tao, and then he smiled and said, "Niu Tao, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet you here."

As soon as she finished speaking, the smile on Wei Xiang's face was completely dissipated by the voice coming from behind her.

"It turns out that you have been refusing to forgive me because you went out to find a mistress behind my back."

When the young man, who was fashionably dressed, saw Wei Xiang showing a gentle smile to this strange man that he had never seen before, he instantly had a series of associations in his mind.

Then, he who had no confidence at first suddenly became more confident and questioned Wei Xiang.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Stop spewing nonsense." Wei Xiang blushed and scolded the fashionably dressed young man.

Then she turned her head and looked at Niu Tao next to her, her eyes full of apologies, "Sorry, this man is drunk and talks nonsense. Don't take it to heart."

When Niu Tao heard that the fashionable young man misunderstood his relationship with Wei Xiang, he just frowned slightly and didn't take it seriously.

After all, the person in front of me smelled of alcohol, so there was no need for me to argue with a drunk person.

"Is this person your friend...?" Niu Tao asked Wei Xiang.

Wei Xiang nodded to Niu Tao, then shook his head, "It was before, but not now."

"Let me tell you, why did you suddenly show up at the place where my friends and I were gathering? This was all planned by you.

You found a mistress and then wanted to sever the relationship with me, but there was no reason, so you deliberately waited for me to show up when I was out partying with my friends, so that you could sever the relationship with me."

The fashionably dressed young man said to Wei Xiang fiercely, "The clothes you usually wear look pretty good! I didn't expect you to be so scheming."

Faced with the fashionable young man slandering him in front of Niu Tao, Wei Xiang's face turned red with anger and he looked at the fashionable young man with cold eyes.

"There must be something wrong with this guy's brain!" Niu Tao muttered in his mind as he looked at the aggressive young man dressed in fashionable clothes.

Then he glanced at Wei Xiang, whose face was red with anger, thought for a moment and said, "I'm going home, do you need me to give you a ride?"

"Um... is it convenient for you? My home is quite far from here..." Wei Xiang, who was being pestered and couldn't leave, heard Niu Tao say he was willing to send her home, and of course she was willing.

I just feel that my home is a bit far away from here, so I am a little embarrassed to agree.

"Is it the same community where I delivered goods last time?" Niu Tao recalled it and asked Wei Xiang.

"Yes." Wei Xiang nodded. Although that community is her cousin's home, she is indeed living in her cousin's home now, which is no different from her own home.

"That's okay, it's not too far. Come on, I'll take you back." Niu Tao said with a smile. Wei Xiang nodded and then led Wei Xiang towards where his car was.

"Don't leave, you two sluts." Seeing Niu Tao and Wei Xiang kissing each other, the fashionably dressed young man was about to leave. He immediately rushed up, ready to give the man who stole his woman a slap in the face.

fist.

"Be careful." Wei Xiang knew that the fashionable young man would not give up. He kept paying attention to the other man's actions. When he saw the other man rushing up, he shouted loudly to Niu Tao.

"Bang." As a practitioner, Niu Tao, although he is just a rookie, is still much better than this young man who has been drained by alcohol and sex and dressed in a fashionable style.

When the opponent rushed up and punched him, he turned around and kicked the opponent in the chest, sending him flying out and landing in the green belt.

"Ah..." The stylishly dressed young man was kicked away and fell into the green belt. A shrill scream immediately came from the green belt.

The young man, whose body had been drained by alcohol and sex, was in disgraceful fashion. He was kicked so hard by Niu Tao that he couldn't get up.

When Wei Xiang saw Niu Tao kicking the fashionably dressed young man away, her eyes widened and her red lips opened. She looked surprised and at the same time, a different kind of light flashed through her big bright eyes.

Counting the previous time at the construction site, this was the second time Niu Tao helped her out.

"Let's go!" Niu Tao kicked the stylishly dressed young man away. When he saw that the other man did not pounce on him again, he knew that the fight was over.

So he turned around and said to Wei Xiang, who was looking at him with bright eyes.

"Yes." When Wei Xiang heard this, she put away the surprised expression on her face, but the sparkling color in her bright eyes did not fade away.

Without the obstruction of the fashionably dressed young man, Niu Tao left with Wei Xiang smoothly.

After a while.

"This is..." Wei Xiang looked at the van in front of her and was slightly surprised. She had never sat in a van before in her whole life!

"Click."

Niu Tao opened the passenger door. Wei Xiang saw this and immediately got in. Then Niu Tao sat in the driver's seat.

"Fasten your seat belt." Niu Tao, who abides by traffic rules very much, saw Wei Xiang not fastening his seat belt after sitting in the passenger seat, and immediately reminded him.

"Oh." Wei Xiang, who was observing the situation inside the van, heard Niu Tao's reminder and immediately fastened his seat belt.

"Boom..."

The car started, Niu Tao turned the steering wheel, turned the front of the car, and then drove the van away from the parking place.

When leaving the parking place, they passed by the place where the dispute occurred. The two people in the car saw the entangled guy and stood up unsteadily from the green belt.

It was already past ten o'clock at night, there were not many pedestrians on the street, and there were not many vehicles coming and going on the road.

The van was moving forward at a steady speed, and it was a little quiet. At this time, Wei Xiang took the initiative and said to Niu Tao, "Counting this time, you have helped me twice."

Niu Tao, who was concentrating on driving, thought for a moment, nodded and said, "I wouldn't have paid attention unless you said it."

"How is your work lately?" Wei Xiang asked again.

Niu Tao thought about what he heard from his colleagues today that the boss was currently busy with tasks and could not come back to replenish the store.

He was about to say that he might encounter some minor problems after his work, but when the words came to his lips, he changed his mind again.

"The job is pretty good. It's much better than the jobs I did before. I like my current job very much..."

The reason why Niu Tao changed his mind was that he didn't need to tell Wei Xiang in detail about some things in the store. After all, the other party was not a colleague in the store, so it would not be good to talk too much.

"When will you rest? I'll treat you to a meal!" Wei Xiang said.

"Eating? Uh..." Niu Tao didn't react at all when he was invited to dinner by a girl for the first time in his life.

"What? Is it because of my girlfriend? Isn't it inconvenient?" Wei Xiang asked tentatively when Niu Tao was stunned for a moment.

"No, I don't have a girlfriend anymore. It's just the first time a girl invited me to dinner. I didn't react at once." Niu Tao said with a smile.

Hearing Niu Tao say that she didn't have a girlfriend, Wei Xiang nodded secretly, and then she said to Niu Tao, "You helped me twice, and I always have to express my gratitude..."

"Well...Actually, this is all my effort, there is no need to express it." Niu Tao said.

"I want it, otherwise I will keep thinking about it... so don't refuse..." Wei Xiang insisted.

"Okay! But I don't have time recently. Let's have dinner together when we have time..."

"Let's add a friend! When you have time someday, send me a message in advance..."

Niu Tao nodded, then took out his mobile phone from his pocket and opened his QR code, letting Wei Xiang scan it, and the two parties added each other as friends.

When the friend verification was passed, the corners of Wei Xiang's mouth curved upward slightly. What Niu Tao didn't know was that this was the first time Wei Xiang took the initiative to ask someone of the opposite sex to add him as a friend.

More than twenty minutes later, a van stopped at the door of a villa community.

Wei Xiang got out of the passenger seat and said to Niu Tao, who was about to leave, "Goodbye, be careful on the road..."

"Yeah." Niu Tao responded with a smile, and then drove away. Because he was sending Wei Xiang home, he would drive back this time and might not get home until eleven o'clock at night.

After watching Niu Tao's van disappear at the corner of the street, Wei Xiang withdrew his gaze and took out his mobile phone from his bag.

Open Niu Tao's Moments, and while walking into the community, he browsed through the relevant updates posted in Niu Tao's Moments.

She wanted to deepen her understanding of Niu Tao through his posts on his WeChat Moments.

Spirit World, Tap Rock City.

The sun rises, and the golden sunshine dispels the darkness that shrouds the earth. Tap Seac City, which has been sleeping all night, begins to revive.

The number of pedestrians on the street gradually increased. In the stores that opened early, the store owners began to lecture their employees to cheer up some of the employees who were still dozing off.

Outside Lin Fei and Wu Yin's manor, a tall man with an eyepatch on his right eye stood under a leafy tree, his eyes full of bloodshot eyes, looking at the manor in the distance.

Several days have passed since he used the magical magic cube that can detect others.

After he did not receive any response when using the magic weapon Rubik's Cube, he ruled out the possibility that Lin Fei and Wu Yin were practitioners.

Since these two men and women, who would wear bamboo hats to hide their faces whenever they go out, are just ordinary people, then who is the murderer who killed his fellow members of the organization? Or, it could be said that the murderer left Tapashi City long ago.

If the murderer of the organization's comrades is not found, he will not be able to report to his superiors. In this way, the tall man with an eyepatch on his right eye will not be able to go back to resume his life. He will have to stay in Tap Seac City to look for the unknown person.

murderer.

Now that it was confirmed that the five people in the manor were ordinary people, according to the past character of the tall man with an eyepatch on his right eye, he would definitely get rid of these five people.

But now the murderer's whereabouts are unknown. The tall man with an eyepatch on his right eye is worried that if he takes action to get rid of these five people, he will alert others, so he has not taken action yet.

He couldn't find the murderer, but he could at least know that the murderer was most likely connected to this manor. As long as he waited patiently, he would find traces of the murderer sooner or later.

"Damn it, it's been so many days, why hasn't the murderer shown up yet?" The tall man with an eyepatch on his right eye standing under the leafy tree muttered as he looked at the closed gate of the manor.

Gu said to himself.

These days, except for going back to the inn to sleep at night, he basically spends the rest of his time in this place, monitoring the situation in the manor.

During this period, he also took some time to meet once or twice with the undercover agent arranged by the organization in the city lord's palace in Tap Rock City.

He wanted to find some information about the murderer through the other party, but he was very disappointed. The undercover agent did not have any relevant clues.

The murderer who killed his fellow members of the organization seemed to have disappeared into Tap Seac City out of thin air.

Of course, according to speculation, the murderer who killed the organization's companions had peak level three strength. If the other party wanted to avoid being tracked, with his strength, there were many ways.

The tall man with an eyepatch on his right eye, who had been watching for many days, didn't know that the two men and women wearing bamboo hats he saw while monitoring the activities in the manor were the murderers he was looking for.

Ever since Lin Fei and Wu Yin made an appointment to visit some restaurants in Tas City and try all kinds of delicious food when they have free time, this proposal has been effectively implemented in these days.

These days, almost every evening, Lin Fei and Wu Yin would leave the manor together and go to a restaurant in Tap Rock City for dinner.

Therefore, during these days, they almost never had dinner at home.

Sometimes when the cook Zhang Xiaochun is chatting with her two companions, she can't help showing some sadness.

Because Lin Fei and Wu Yin hardly had dinner at home these days, Zhang Xiaochun thought that his two hosts were dissatisfied with her cooking skills, so they ate in restaurants outside.

If the cook's cooking skills dissatisfy the owner, doesn't that mean that she will be unemployed soon?

Regarding Zhang Xiaochun's inner sorrow, Zhang Xiaohua and Zhang Xiaoyu naturally tried their best to comfort her and told her not to worry about such things.

However, verbal comfort alone cannot solve Zhang Xiaochun's sorrowful problem.

This matter needs to be traced to its origins, and we must ask Lin Fei and Wu Yin.

Ask them if it is because they are dissatisfied with Zhang Xiaochun's cooking skills that the two of them go out to eat every dinner.
