Xia Shuzhu sat on the chair very excitedly, staring at the woman opposite for a moment - a hundred times more intense than the way he stared at Lin Ze when he was the most emotional and touching.
Sitting opposite Xia Shuzhu is a woman with naturally wavy blond hair. Her facial features are very three-dimensional and exquisite. The unique charm of European women is perfectly displayed on her face.
Her expression was a bit cold, even a bit inhumane.
But Xia Shuzhu didn't mind at all, because she knew the identity of this woman - a super female agent of British MI6.
As a woman who carries out the most dangerous mission in the world, can Xia Shuzhu ask her to be as charming and charming as Chen Ling?
Furthermore, the elegant aura she exuded at this moment had proved to Xia Shuzhu that she was in a completely relaxed state. This was already a sign of great respect and trust for Xia Shuzhu.
As a rookie who has been interning at the Embassy in the UK for one year, it is a matter of pride and pride for her to be friends with this super agent of MI6.
However, she also knew that such matters needed to be kept extremely confidential. Even to Lin Ze, the man who had completely occupied her heart, she had never said a word. It was not that she did not trust him, but that she could not and it was not necessary.
What's the point of discussing this kind of topic with a guy who's a bit mysterious and arrogant?
At this moment, Xia Shuzhu doesn't have any dignity and posture of Teacher Zijinhua. She is just like a third-grade elementary school loli who entered the principal's office timidly——
"Ruth. Last night you said you came to China to carry out a secret mission?" Xia Shuzhu asked curiously in pure English.
"Yeah." Ruth stirred the coffee in front of her and nodded slightly.
"Can you tell me?" Xia Shuzhu said excitedly. "I am more familiar with China than you are. Maybe I can help you."
Ruth took a sip of coffee, shook her head and said, "Thank you, my friend." A trace of caution flashed across Ruth's beautiful blue eyes. "The mission I performed is very dangerous, and telling you will only pose a threat to you."
"Last night you mentioned that you were tracking an international killer?" Xia Shuzhu asked excitedly. She felt that this is what a real hero should do. That damn guy Lin Ze only knows how to fight and follow the road.
People are fooling around. How majestic would he be if he could carry out international missions like Ruth?
Xia Shuzhu is an ordinary woman. Her only special experience in her life is a one-year internship at the Embassy in the UK. Naturally, she has infinite admiration and fanaticism for super female agents who can only be seen in Hollywood movies. It is okay to lose a little reason.
Understandable.
"Well, I chased her across three countries. The latest news shows that she is in China." Ruth's heroic brows frowned slightly and she said softly. "Xia, I understand your curiosity. But don't ask.
The more you know, the less safe you are."
Xia Shuzhu was immediately excited and couldn't help it. The more you know, the less safe you are. This is such a familiar line. Xia Shuzhu hopes that Ruth will say to her, Xia, I have a task for you, I hope you can go well.
Finish.
Xia Shuzhu absolutely didn't think twice and agreed immediately. As for whether she could do it and whether she would lose her life because of it, that was a question she would think about after her head stopped burning and she gradually sobered up.
"I'm just curious." Xia Shuzhu said with a hint of coquettishness. "Ruth, just tell me a little bit."
Ruth couldn't stand the pleading of this foreign friend, and her cold expression gradually melted.
She is a super female agent who basically has no friends. Within the Sixth Branch, she rarely communicates with her colleagues. Unless there is teamwork, she only has simple communication with her teammates.
This is related to her strong personality and her career.
After all, as a super female agent, she hides too many secrets. If someone steals them, the trouble will be extremely heavy. And after all, she is a human being, not a machine. The best way to prevent secrets from leaking out
Just don't make friends.
This also resulted in Ruth's withdrawn, indifferent and unsmiling character. But sitting opposite Xia Shuzhu, this beautiful oriental girl, gave Ruth the desire to make friends for the first time.
They met at a coincidental time and place. It was in the lecture hall of Oxford University. These two women, whose lives and work were completely different from each other, met and formed a deep friendship.
It was easy for Ruth to get Xia Shuzhu's information, but she didn't do that. She just maintained her friendship with Xia Shuzhu in a normal way. Whenever she finished a task, she liked to have a cup of coffee with Xia Shuzhu, chat and relax in the afternoon.
A moment of overwhelming heart.
At this moment, Xia Shuzhu was pleading rather coquettishly, and a look of helplessness appeared on Ruth's cold and charming face. Then she said angrily: "I can reveal a little to you, but you don't want to spread it everywhere."
Ruth thought for a while and then said, "Even if you spread it, it will not affect my mission. But this is my professional ethics."
"I am indeed looking for an international killer." Ruth said calmly. "She is very powerful and smart. She always confuses my attention."
"What mistake did she make?" Xia Shuzhu said in surprise. "She made you pursue three countries at all costs?"
"She assassinated a senior government official, which caused fluctuations in the cabinet situation. The superiors asked me to deal with her according to law at all costs." Ruth said calmly.
"Isn't that very dangerous?" Xia Shuzhu asked worriedly.
"Yeah." Ruth nodded.
"You can just be perfunctory. No one knows whether you can catch her anyway." Xia Shuzhu said in a very accommodating manner.
"I am an agent trained by the state." Ruth said seriously. "My life also belongs to the state."
Xia Shuzhu was speechless, knowing that Ruth was very strict with herself in this regard, otherwise she would not have become one of the most powerful female agents of MI6.
"Xia, I just want to have a cup of coffee and chat with you this time. Maybe I will leave in a few days." Ruth showed a look of relaxation on her face. "Let's not discuss these heavy topics.
?”
Xia Shuzhu nodded heavily: "Okay. If you are free these days, I will take you around the city. You know, Huaxin City is one of the most developed cities in China. It also has a rich history."
Ruth pursed her lips and smiled: "Aren't you going to work?"
"Can I ask for leave?" Xia Shuzhu said with a smile.
"Can I understand that my arrival gives you an excuse to be lazy?" Ruth joked.
"Hehe -" Xia Shuzhu said slyly. "Ruth, I haven't seen you for a year, but you are still joking."
Ruth smiled and said: "As the old Chinese saying goes: live until you are old and learn until you are old."
"Oh, have you learned how to speak proverbs?"
In the coffee shop, this pair of foreign friends chatted about irrelevant topics, but they were very happy.
————
Lin Ze felt helpless about Han Xiaoyi's unpredictable temperament.
Didn't you drink a large cup of green apple milk tea during the meal? You slept so late last night, why didn't you take advantage of your lunch break to catch up on your sleep, instead of dragging yourself to the cafe for a cup of latte?
Don’t you know that my brother Xiao Lin only drinks coffee from Blue Mountain?
Unable to withstand Han Xiaoyi's insistence, Lin Ze was forced to come to the cafe with Han Xiaoyi and pretend to be a bourgeoisie.
"Hey, you beast, hurry up. I only have one hour to rest. If you don't hurry up, how can I drink more cups of coffee?" Han Xiaoyi said, pulling Lin Ze's arm hard.
"Miss, you drink so much coffee and you don't worry about having to urinate in class?" Lin Ze sighed. "Girls turn yellow when they drink too much coffee. Why do you drink so much?"
"Bah, that's why you look so yellow!" Han Xiaoyi poked her delicate pink face with her slender fingers, and said sullenly. "My lady's skin is tender, there's no need for you to worry."
Pushing open the wooden door of the coffee shop, Han Xiaoyi dragged Lin Ze to the seat by the window. But after walking a few steps, Han Xiaoyi saw Xia Shuzhu sitting opposite.
She was a little flustered, and was about to turn around and change places, but her eyes met Xia Shuzhu's, and she had to say awkwardly: "Teacher Xia, are you resting here too?"
When Xia Shuzhu saw Han Xiaoyi and Lin Ze coming to drink coffee together, Xia Shuzhu frowned slightly and said, "Well, you guys didn't take a lunch break and came out to drink coffee?"
"Yeah, I didn't feel energetic in class in the morning, so I asked Lin Ze to come out and drink a few cups of coffee with me to refresh myself." Han Xiaoyi explained.
It's just that this reason can't be convinced even by herself.
Drinking coffee without energy or sleep? What kind of method is this?
Xia Shuzhu was chatting passionately with Ruth and didn't say much, just glanced at Lin Ze with a slightly curious look.
At this moment, Ruth also followed Xia Shuzhu's gaze and looked over. When her beautiful blue eyes fell on Lin Ze, her delicate body trembled and she said in shock: "Is it you?"
Her violent reaction made Xia Shuzhu extremely confused.
Is it you?
Does Ruth know Lin Ze?
Looking at Lin Ze's rather bitter and helpless expression, he seemed to really know Ruth as a super agent, which made him feel even more strange.
Lin Ze had been filled with bitterness since he first caught sight of Ruth. He lamented that the world was too small. Even in a coffee shop near the school, he could meet Ruth, a super female agent. He no longer knew what words to use.
To describe the mood at this moment.
Of the four people, two were kept in the dark and could not understand the situation at all. Ruth, however, stared straight at Lin Ze, her eyes always cold and bottomless, filled with thousands of emotions.
Lin Ze lowered his head and paused for a moment, then walked slowly over. With a happy-go-lucky smile on his face, he looked at the blond Ruth and said complicatedly: "Long time no see."
