The avatar named "Nightingale" on MSN was always quiet and did not respond. On the mobile phone, a call came from Shen Ke: "Mr. Xi, it's done!"
The corners of his pale mouth finally curled up, and he simply replied: "Where are you now? I'll pick you up. Let's talk about it when we meet."
Compared with his drug addiction, Mo Xiaoxiao's matter was not worth worrying about. But to be on the safe side, he felt that he should get rid of this Mo Xiaoxiao to prevent her from hanging around in front of Shen Ke all day long and causing trouble for him.
Before going out, he walked to the secretary's seat and said: "Check up Mo Xiaoxiao's information. See if there are any British drama classes or Australian opera classes. Send her to study at public expense. The key is to ask her to sign a contract and study at public expense. You are not allowed to return to the country during this period. You are responsible for talking to her. If she refuses to go, tell her to leave."
The secretary responded hurriedly: "Yes, I will take care of it."
"Remember, this matter cannot be leaked to anyone. If others ask about it, just say it is an arrangement in the charter, and you don't know anything about it."
"I know, Mr. Xi."
After finishing this matter, Xi Xiangdong finally breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat accumulated in his collar, and looked at his phone again. Bureau Wu never responded to him. Is this poison really difficult?

Xi Xiangdong went to take a shower, while Shen Ke was coaxing Duoduo to sleep, when suddenly the phone on the table vibrated.
Shen Ke picked it up and found it was Xi Xiangdong's cell phone with an unfamiliar number. She thought it was a wrong number and picked it up, but the other party called his name accurately: "Xiangdong, the analysis results are out."
Shen Ke was stunned for a moment, then answered after a long while: "...He is taking a shower."
There was a lot of silence during the phone call, and then, with a "click", the call was hung up.
Xi Xiangdong came out of the shower, wrapped in a bath towel and wiping his hair. Shen Ke handed him the phone: "Someone just looked for you. I said you were taking a shower, and he hung up."
Xi Xiangdong put down the towel, glanced at the unfamiliar number, frowned slightly, and his face suddenly became solemn.
Shen Ke was suspicious: "Do you know this person? How strange."
Xi Xiangdong didn't answer, but walked to the balcony with his cell phone to talk on the phone.
He had never gone behind her back when dealing with official matters before, but this time it was as if he was deliberately avoiding her.
Shen Ke thought about it carefully and felt that the male voice on the phone just now was quite familiar. He couldn't remember where he heard it before.
After Xi Xiangdong hung up the phone, he came back and started to get dressed.
Shen Ke wondered: "Are you still going out so late?"
He nodded and hurriedly pressed a kiss on her forehead: "Well, my friend was drunk and forgot to bring his wallet. I'll go pay the bill and be back in a while. If you're sleepy, go to bed early."
Shen Ke nodded obediently, got him a coat and put it on, and then walked him to the door.
Xi Xiangdong stood at the door and looked at her, a flash of warmth suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly pulled her over and hugged her tightly.
His arms were as hard as iron, and Shen Ke could hardly breathe due to his suffocation. She couldn't help but beat his chest and wondered: "What's wrong?"
He buried his face in the crook of her neck, kissed her hard again, and finally relaxed. He looked at her with slightly curved eyes and touched her hair like he did to Duoduo: "Be good and wait until I come back."
She slapped his hand away with disdain and complained: "Don't take me for a lot."
Having said that, Shen Ke was really clean and lying on the bed waiting for him.
Perhaps influenced by his last words, she turned in the quilt for a while and couldn't fall asleep. Then she got up, opened the closet door, and put on the black lace pajamas that Xi Xiangdong bought for her.
