Xie Jingchen thought of the photo stored in his mobile phone and looked at An Ruqiao, who was sitting next to him, less than two punches away from him. He didn't know whether he should move closer or step back.

Xie Jingchen opened his mouth and asked that sentence before he had time to think.

"Do you do this to other people...?"

"What kind?" An Ruqiao listened to his question, flipped up her hair, and moved her long hair to the other side. On the side close to Xie Jingchen, the curves of her cheeks, neck, and collarbone were fully exposed and clearly visible.

Xie Jingchen's hands were on both sides of his body, clenched into fists, and then released.

Some people wanted to hold An Ruqiao's hand, but they were afraid that they would be too abrupt.

"That's it..." Xie Jingchen stuttered.

Xie Jingchen has never been in love. The only girl he was introduced to by his family became his cousin-in-law after she fell in love with him.

He has children, but he has never held a girl's hand except for his mother, grandmother and grandma.

Theoretical knowledge is also limited to the TV series I have watched.

The first "boldness" was to attract peepers, and the other time was due to the influence of drugs.

And...the heartbeat at that time...was not as obvious as it is now.

Xie Jingchen is not a fool. His reaction to An Ruqiao is so special. It would be inappropriate for him to not be aware of his own feelings or to shirk the influence of drugs.

Seeing his nervous and awkward look, An Ruqiao rarely teased him again.

An Ruqiao was not sure what attitude to adopt when facing Xie Jingchen before.

She is not someone who easily trusts others, nor is she a romantic person. From the initial use of each other to the subsequent establishment of a cooperative relationship, it was all based on interests and reality.

If it involves emotions...

She did have some different feelings for Xie Jingchen.

At first, I used him to fish, and I chose him because I had a good impression of him. Later...

I can only say that falling in love with someone is indeed something that makes no sense.

If I were to break down where I started to have feelings for this man... maybe it was because of his outstanding appearance, maybe because he had similar tastes to me, maybe because he had a not-so-honest mind but sometimes...

Too much honesty.

An Ru Qiaozai stared at Xie Jingchen's eyebrows carefully, thinking about the ambiguity caused by her deliberate teasing during this period.

The thin lips opened slightly, and the breath came out. "Is this question important?"

Xie Jingchen nodded, looking intently at An Ruqiao's pupils, and saw the solemn self reflected in them.

"Very important."

After saying that, Xie Jingchen suddenly saw An Ruqiao smiling.

The corners of his lips were raised, his eyebrows were curved, and in Xie Jingchen's eyes, they were brighter than the lights outside the window and the stars in the sky.

"Don't worry, it's just you."

Until he returned to his room and lay on the bed, Xie Jingchen was a little unable to recover.

I turned over and over again, and my mind was filled with the scenes that just happened in An Ruqiao's house.

So... is he special?

What is their relationship now?

Suddenly, with a slap on the forehead, Xie Jingchen reacted and was choked by his entangled thoughts. He remembered that he had not finished talking to An Ruqiao about the serious things he wanted to say.

Pick up the phone and send a message to An Ruqiao.

"Are you asleep?"

After thinking for a while, he fumbled with his fingers on the screen and withdrew the message.

He texted again, "Good night."

An Ruqiao was already lying down on the sofa. She was also thinking about whether she should develop a relationship with Xie Jingchen.

She imagined that her life would end with her dying together with the prophet. She always felt that love was something far away from her.

She was not born in love, but in sin. She had seen her mother sink into that so-called "love"

It made her feel disgusted. The kind of love that was full of deceit and hurt could not be called love at all.

Love should be sincere, but until she achieves her goal, she cannot be completely sincere to Xie Jingchen.

But after achieving the goal, I'm afraid there will be no chance again.

If it is destined to be fruitless, why should we start?

While I was thinking about it, my phone vibrated.

An Ruqiao picked up the phone and saw Xie Jingchen sent a message and then retracted it, and then saw him add "good night".

Sometimes, I really think this man is a bit cute.

An Ruqiao raised her hand and replied "Good night, see you tomorrow~" to Xie Jingchen and added a heart-warming emoticon.

Before everything ends, it’s okay to enjoy a relationship...?

The next morning, An Ruqiao got up early.

I didn’t go to the exchange meeting in the past two days, but I still want to go to it today.

I just didn't get enough sleep, I had some dark circles under my eyes, and I was a little tired mentally.

Unexpectedly, at the exchange meeting, the doctors, experts and professors, after hearing that she had been kidnapped and seeing the dark circles under her eyes, thought too much and looked at her with "love" in their eyes.

"Xiao Qiao, go back and rest quickly!"

"Yes, yes, taking good care of your body is the most important thing. You are still young!"

"Later, we will make a copy of the entire video and send it to you, so rest assured!"

The old professors were sure that she was frightened, so she didn't insist on keeping it there. Anyway, there was a video, and Dr. Zhang would send her the entire video when the time came, so she went back to catch up on her sleep with peace of mind.

After catching up on his sleep, he called Shen Yi and went directly back to City L.

There is only one week left before May 7th, and An Ruqiao wants to visit the place in advance and make some arrangements.

Anyway, she already got what she wanted.

I did say something to Xie Jingchen when I left. As for whether the three words "see you tomorrow" I sent yesterday can be fulfilled...a video meeting can be considered a meeting.

Xie Jingchen and Sun Wu went to Liujiacun early in the morning, while Wang Zixian continued to search for clues at Professor Pei's house.

Liujia Village is quite remote. To get to K City, you have to transfer from the county town. However, there are only two direct buses from the county town to K City every day.

Xie Jingchen and Sun Wu set off at eight o'clock, and it was almost ten o'clock when they drove to Liujiacun.

Although K city is not small, the conditions of the counties and villages under its jurisdiction cannot be guaranteed to be at the same level.

For example, Liujia Village has not yet benefited from the construction of new rural areas, and most of the houses are old brick and tile bungalows.

When you walk around the village, you won't see many young people, mostly old people and women.

As the car drives toward the village, it will pass through large tracts of farmland. Every household in the village has a few acres of land, and they can earn tens of thousands of dollars a year by growing garlic, rape, corn and the like.

The money earned from farming is enough to use in rural areas, but it is not enough if you want to buy some decent things or send your children to school. Therefore, most of the young and middle-aged people in the family go to the city.

Worked in.

Working on the assembly line in a factory can make more money than working at home for a year.

Liu Hong's family and Sun Guiying's family can basically find out the way by asking around the village.

Xie Jingchen and Sun Wu were not wearing police uniforms and came in casual clothes so they could inquire about things more easily.

The old people in the village also knew the gossip and asked them who they were and how they came up with the idea of ​​looking for these two families.

Before they could think of a reason, the villagers automatically gave them identities based on their clothes.

"Are you Liu Hong's friends in the city?"

"Let me tell you, they must have stayed in the city and lived a good life!"

"If I were Liu Hong and went to the city, I wouldn't want to go back to her poor place!"
