"I thought restaurants in shopping malls would be more casual, but I didn't expect everyone to be so well-dressed..." Chu Yuexi huddled her shoulders and felt a little scared after sitting down.
"Don't you also wear casual sportswear when you participate in blind dates organized by the Marriage and Parenting Bureau?" Yu Zhesen smiled.
Chu Yuexi covered her face: "Stop it, stop it, don't mention the old things again."
Although it is "past events", it is far from "old".
Yu Zhesen thought to himself that they had only known each other for less than a year, but because the experience of life and death together had deepened their mutual understanding and trust, they now had a sense of familiarity as if they had known each other for many years.
Frankly speaking, Chu Yuexi's appearance is actually very outstanding. Even if she doesn't dress up very much, she is still very conspicuous. However, it has always been difficult for Yu Zhesen to have ambiguous thoughts when getting along with her. On the contrary, sometimes there is a feeling that they are related to each other.
The strange delusion of a very strong "brother".
This is not because Chu Yuexi has no feminine charm. Even if she is wearing casual sportswear, she can definitely be called a sunny and cheerful little girl. Therefore, Yu Zhesen had to reflect on himself secretly. Why did he always subconsciously not regard her as a woman?
The conclusion of reflection is that the preconceived first impression was too profound. Under the combined influence of the first meeting on the cross-sea bridge and the subsequent blind date mission of the Marriage and Childbirth Bureau, a layer of relationship barrier naturally formed in his heart.
This mentality makes their nominal couple look very unqualified in the eyes of each other and outsiders. Yu Zhesen recalled that Chu Yuexi had tactfully expressed dissatisfaction on the phone that she would not take the initiative to contact her, and her words "
Long-distance relationships are too hard.”
The hard thing is actually not the long-distance relationship, but the fact that the two of them are not in a normal relationship.
"How is Xingzhou City? Has it changed much?" Chu Yuexi didn't notice that Yu Zhesen was thinking wildly, and asked while adding seasonings to the soup.
"It's changed a lot. I don't know the roads very well anymore. I have to rely on navigation to get around."
"Well, then... did my sister's memorial ceremony go well?"
"Fortunately, I met my former chief officer and several of An He's colleagues in the rapid response department. They were all very interesting." He generously counted Luo Chengyan among the interesting people, and at the same time he was tangled in his heart.
Should I reveal An He's story to Chu Yuexi?
Before setting off from Xingzhou City, An He told him face to face not to say anything.
Her original words were, "Unless Xiao Sen, you are ready to marry Yue Xi and be the most important person to each other for the rest of your life, you should not tell her either my secret or Xiao Jian's secret. This is also for her own good."
”.
An He's worries are not unreasonable. These secrets are too heavy, and once they are known, they may say goodbye to the life of a "normal person". Although Chu Yuexi has been with him through life and death several times before, her life trajectory has not changed significantly.
, still moving forward steadily according to her own wishes.
Yu Zhesen was in a trance because he was thinking about these complicated issues. Chu Yuexi, who was opposite, asked with concern: "Do you still feel uncomfortable? Because you think of Miss An."
"Uh, it's not..." Yu Zhesen couldn't lie about this. Of course, he couldn't be sad about that incident anymore. When he returned from the other world, he was only depressed for a short time before regaining his energy and joining the battle.
Chu Yuexi was a little hesitant and changed the topic wisely: "Then what have you done in Xingzhou City these days? Did you get together with your old classmates or friends?"
"No, I have basically lost contact with my classmates." Yu Zhesen laughed at himself, "I don't have many friends to date. In the past few days in Xingzhou City, I helped someone from the quick response department handle a case. You haven't paid attention recently.
News, right? We held a press conference two days ago."
"Ah, I really didn't see it!" Chu Yuexi took out her mobile phone to search, and opened her mouth in surprise: "Have even the Supreme Arbitrator and the Chief Director come forward? Oh my God, what kind of big case have you assisted? I also
I thought you were back on vacation..."
"This case is about whether Lao An can continue to be the director-general. As someone who was raised by him, of course I have to help. In fact, it's nothing. I just destroyed an organization that engaged in assassination and illegal biological weapon research."
Chu Yuexi frowned: "Isn't this nothing? It's just pretending to be too modest..."
"Think about the enemies we faced before, it's really nothing." Yu Zhesen's response seemed reasonable.
Chu Yuexi thought for a while, and it seemed that this was indeed the case. Almost none of the enemies they had encountered before were weaker than this time.
"That's awesome. You can still perform meritorious service during your vacation. Didn't the rapid response department recruit you?"
"They did ask me if I would like to join, but I haven't thought about it yet."
"Does this still need to be considered?" Chu Yuexi opened her eyes wide, "I have never dreamed of it! Joining the rapid response department means having a recognized strength of S level or above! That is my ultimate goal!"
"Joining the rapid response means working overtime on a regular basis and going on missions all over the world, and the tasks we take on are all difficult and high-risk tasks. Do you remember what I said in the ward? Young people, don't work too hard. Didn't you also say that fate is
My own? Isn’t it nice to have a special team working nine to five with two weekends off?”
Chu Yuexi laughed so hard that she covered her mouth. She was afraid that she would spit out the food in her mouth.
"Here we go again, you duplicitous guy." Chu Yuexi took a tissue and wiped her mouth while shaking her head and commented.
"This is my attitude towards life. Where is the duplicity?"
"It's not that you don't dare to work hard, you just resist being controlled. The discipline of Kuaishou must be much stricter than that of Qidao City." Chu Yuexi said sharply, "In addition, I know that you are only willing to work under the hands of people you trust, Hathaway.
Commander and Team Leader Yuan at least have reasons for you to convince them."
"Why do you think I will be convinced by Yuan Yinchuan?" Yu Zhesen was a little curious.
He had never expressed to Chu Yuexi that he had any affection for Yuan Yinchuan. At first, he even called him "Red Hair" with contempt in his heart. He felt that Yuan Yinchuan was just a man with a military background and had no interest in Zhong Yuguwei.
It's just the role of a hawk and dog whose destiny is to obey.
However, these impressions changed after joining the special service team and getting to know Yuan Yinchuan deeply.
Yu Zhesen still remembers Yuan Yinchuan's struggle hidden under the surface of indifference when he arrested Wei Lanxue on the rooftop of the TV Media Building.
"Have you forgotten that I fought side by side with you on the cruise ship and on Paradise Island? Of course I can see that you have respect for Captain Yuan. In comparison, you don't have much respect for Captain Bird Bell.
?"
"Shh, don't speak so loudly." Yu Zhesen looked ashamed.
"Don't worry, I will keep the secret." Chu Yuexi blinked smartly, "Because we are allies."
When she said "We are allies", she looked directly at Yu Zhesen.
Yu Zhesen could detect the jumping and burning joy in her eyes, and he could also understand the special meaning behind it.
Chu Yuexi expressed in a restrained way that she not only wanted to maintain this alliance relationship, but also wanted to push the covenant between them into a deeper realm.
