Tang Wan was hurt by the man's harsh movements and could only cry out, "It's not normal, it's not normal for us to be like this, Brother Ye, we're not normal." She knew that Shen Zhiye forced herself to say these three things that were abnormal. What is the purpose of the words?

"I will keep a distance from Xie Lu in the future." Saying good night was too intimate and he didn't accept it.

Shen Zhiye heard what he wanted to hear, and the condensation on his face finally dissipated.

"At least you are not allowed to think about him while you are under me, you know?"

He touched Tang Wan's cheek with his fingers.

There was a line of tears there.

Tang Wan nodded, "Brother Ye, I understand, I will never do it again."

"good."

Before the first ray of sunlight in the morning entered the room, the man had already returned from outside wrapped in a bath towel and carrying a basin.

Shen Zhiye's residence was arranged later. It used to be an abandoned house in the village. Because Shen Zhiye wanted to live there, it was packed out urgently.

In a place where no one usually comes, a shed was built in the yard to serve as a bathroom.

Tang Wan was completely wrapped in the quilt, leaving only a pair of eyes staring at the man with drops of water hanging on his body.

She had never seen him so down-to-earth before. He was wearing sandals and holding an iron basin with a big rooster in his arms. It reminded Tang Wan of how people dressed in the 1980s.

Not to mention that the earthen house was dilapidated and dilapidated, and they slept on earthen beds.

It also has a very contemporary feel.

Shen Zhiye stood in front of the mirror on the cabinet and wiped his hair. In the mirror, he saw the eyes of the little woman, Xiaolu, rolling around. He smiled and stopped what he was doing.

"Aren't you saying you are tired? Why aren't you sleeping yet?"

He hung the towel around his neck and hunched over the bed.

Tang Wan stretched out her slender arm from the quilt and hooked it around his neck, calling out tenderly, "Brother Ye."

"Um?"

The man responded in a monosyllabic voice, and carefully smoothed away the messy hair on the woman's cheek with his fingers, "Sleep for a while?"

"Then Brother Ye, do you want to sleep with us?"

Just when Shen Zhiye was about to agree, the cell phone placed beside the bed vibrated.

He reached out and grabbed it.

It's a call from Pang Le.

"Say." He slid away to answer.

Pang Le said something, and the light in Shen Zhiye's eyes dimmed, and he immediately straightened up.

"Get the car ready, I'll be there right away."

With that said, he hung up the phone.

Tang Wan sat up half wrapped in quilt and asked in surprise, "Brother Ye, don't you want to sleep for a while?" From last night to now, he didn't even close his eyes.

"Something happened over there, I need to go there immediately."

"what's up?"

"It's not a big deal." Shen Zhiye said it was not a big deal, but he got dressed very quickly.

Tang Wan grabbed a piece of his shirt and put it on, then walked up to him and tied his tie for him.

Shen Zhiye lowered his eyes and looked at the obedient little woman in front of him, stroking the red marks on her neck with his fingers, "You have a day off today, you don't have to go to work."

"But Brother Ye..." Tang Wan wanted to say that Xie Lu was his leader.

"I'll say hello to Xie Yuxing, don't worry." After the tie was tied, Tang Wan quickly went to match him with shoes and socks.

Men are really in a hurry, buckling their watch straps and putting on their shoes at the same time.

"Don't eat tonight, I'll take you out to eat."

"Go out, where are you going?"

Shen Zhiye touched Tang Wan's head and said, "You will know in the evening."

All right.

Tang Wan pursed her lips and held the door handle to send Shen Zhiye out.

After returning to bed, Tang Wan looked at the time and saw that it was already late. Although Shen Zhiye said she didn't need to go to work, she still had to tell Xie Yuxing.

Thinking about it, she touched her cell phone and dialed Xie Yuxing's call.

The person over there must have gotten up early, and the voice that answered the phone was extremely sober, "Elementary school girl, what's wrong?"

"Xie Lu, I want to take a day off today." Tang Wan felt that her body could hold on, but Shen Zhiye had already spoken. If she went to work without rest, he would definitely be angry.

"Are you feeling unwell? I've asked you to rest for a few more days. I'm busy now. I'll come over to see you when I'm done?"

The concerned voice over there made Tang Wan feel an uncontrollable surge of warmth in her heart.

She curled her lips and said, "Xie Lu doesn't have to come to see me specifically. My health is fine."

"It's okay."

Tang Wan heard the voices over there, which were very noisy.

"Are Xie Lu busy? So early?"

"There is something new happening with Song Zhiyi. We are still waiting for the latest news."

"What's going on?" Tang Wan turned over on the bed and suddenly touched something hard under the pillow.

It's Shen Zhiye's wallet.

It doesn't seem to be the one he usually uses.

Tang Wan would personally take money from Shen Zhiye's wallet every time, so he naturally recognized his wallet.

After all these years, she didn't even know that he had two personal wallets.

Curiosity welled up in her heart, and she was ready to open it and take a look.

"He is critically ill."

Tang Wan's heart trembled when she heard this, "What?"

"But he was rescued and is now waiting for the results of the injury assessment. It may be assets, or it may be man-made murder."

"What..." Can it still be a man-made murder?

Tang Wan instantly felt like he was in a police movie.

"Then Xie Lu wants to go back to Beicheng?" After all, Song Zhiyi is his client.

"It depends on the situation."

Someone was calling Xie Yuxing, so Tang Wan stopped pestering him.

After hanging up the phone, Tang Wan clicked on the memo on her phone.

There were already a lot of key pieces of information recorded in the memo, so she clicked in and added another one: Something happened to Song Zhiyi (or he was killed).

Writing this line, she couldn't help but think of that old woman.

He seems to be a very storyteller.

Thinking of her, Tang Wan became more motivated as a journalist.

After putting away the phone, she glanced at Shen Zhiye's wallet in her hand, and her original desire to open his wallet and take a look was suppressed.

Tang Wan threw the wallet back under the pillow and changed into her own clothes.

After tidying up the room for him, he left.

But what she didn't know was that the tightly closed wallet was empty, with only one photo lying quietly inside.

Not disturbed.

When Tang Wan went back to the dormitory, the sun came out.

Thinking of what Li Waner said last night, she called her grandma on her mobile phone on the way, but she was still blocked and couldn't get through at all.

She called Xu Xu again.

No one heard.

Worried, she finally called her uncle's family. After promising to subsidize her unemployed uncle's salary for a month, her aunt reluctantly told her about her grandmother and Xu Xu on the phone.

Grandma is sick, because Xu's condition is getting worse.

Chemotherapy didn't work anymore, so the doctor suggested skipping radiotherapy and getting a bone marrow transplant.

But the bone marrow transplant needs to be done as soon as possible.
