I had some weird dreams one night. When I woke up, the dream was like broken glass. Except for some vague impressions and broken pictures, I couldn't remember what I was dreaming about.
The fine sunlight filtered through the coconut grove shines in through the window.
In addition to the inconvenience of having a cast on her right foot, and not knowing how to deal with the broken relationship between her and Guo Jian, Xu Xin couldn't say that she could wake up in the morning like this and not have to think about work for the time being.
This is a bad thing.
Xu Xin was a little unwilling to face the cruel reality. She lay on the bed and heard a knock on the door. She thought the cook was coming to clean the room early in the morning. She asked in her somewhat clumsy English: "I haven't gotten up yet, what's wrong?"
Something?"
But when Cao Mo pushed open the door and walked in with a dinner plate in his hand, Xu Xin looked at this scene in shock and confusion.
"Hurry up and wash up. Jiaying and the others have already gotten up and are waiting for you to go out to sea together." Cao Mo glanced at the plump snow-white ravine exposed in Xu Xin's loose nightgown and placed the dinner plate on the lower table.
, said.
"I...I have something to do in the morning. I won't go to sea with you," Xu Xin pulled up the neckline of her nightgown, but she soon saw that the silk nightgown she was wearing was extremely soft and thin, even if it wasn't
It was very transparent, but it perfectly showed off the shape of her round breasts. He quickly covered her breasts and shouted, "You, get out quickly..."
Cao Mo didn't leave. He stood with his shoulder leaning against the door frame, took out a cigarette and lit it.
Although Cao Mo's eyes were looking at her, Xu Xin couldn't feel the ambiguity in his eyes. It was more like a cold blade touching her skin, which made her feel frightened.
Cao Mo's cell phone vibrated in his pocket, and when he took it out, he saw that the unknown unknown number had sent him another text message: "Guo Jian insists that you are involved with Stari. He will keep an eye on you even more closely in the past few days. Be careful.
!”
Xu Xin saw that Cao Mo looked at her with cold eyes after reading the text message. She couldn't help but opened her mouth and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Seeing that Cao Mo was as silent as a stone, Xu Xin regretted that she had been too curious before and worried that he would do something detrimental to her. At the moment, she could only honestly pick up the clothes folded on the bedside and reluctantly put on her nightgown.
Covering her naked lower body and exposed snow-white thighs, she hopped on one foot and walked into the bathroom.
Worried that Cao Mo would break in, Xu Xin locked the bathroom door before washing up for a while. After washing and changing her clothes, she opened the door and found that Cao Mo had quietly left.
She sat on the sofa and saw that the dinner plate contained a piece of grilled chicken breast, a piece of bread, a plate of fried eggs and a glass of milk. It was not the strange local food she was worried about.
After breakfast, Xu Xingang was about to contact the information clerk of the project team to deliver some construction materials. She was able to work at the Lakeside Yashe during the day so as not to delay things, but she didn't want Cao Mo to barge in again at this time and startle her.
.
"I think you should have packed up now. Let's go." Cao Mo said.
"I, I still have things to do, can you not go?" Xu Xin asked almost pleadingly.
"If it's inconvenient for you to stand on tiptoe, I can carry you on board.
"Cao Mo came over and bent down. He blocked Xu Xin's back with one hand and tried to reach into Xu Xin's leg with the other hand.
"No, don't touch me - I can walk with a cane..." Xu Xin shouted in surprise and hurriedly struggled out of Cao Mo's embrace. Seeing that the will revealed in Cao Mo's eyes was irresistible, she had no choice but to pick it up
The crutches followed me obediently towards the wooden boardwalk pier in front of the Lakeside Villa.

The Steel Fist Brotherhood's personnel gathered in front of the Tubman Pressing Plant finally withdrew in the morning. Zhao Xinyu and Li Qilu were able to return to the West Africa Branch's headquarters in Kennett Building. Zhao Ling and Wang Wen arrived at Conero Lake in the afternoon.
Industrial Park came to visit Xu Xin who sprained her foot.
Cao Mo directly arranged a motorboat to pick up Zhao Ling and Wang Wen on the speedboat.
"Why did you sprain your leg?" Wang Wen saw Xu Xin and asked with concern.
Cao Mo sat on the deck chair on the front deck and told them casually: "Assistant Xu was playing on the yacht yesterday afternoon. He was accidentally frightened by a flying seabird. When he fell, his feet stopped on the stairs.
, I’m pretty lucky, nothing serious..."
"What a blessing. How can I hurt my feet when I walk well?" Wang Wen was a straight-tempered man. He had some doubts in his heart, so he followed Cao Mo's words and spoke out.
Even though Xu Xin knew that Cao Mo said that on purpose, the lie she had made up before was exposed like this, but she couldn't refute that Cao Mo was talking nonsense, so she sat there with her mouth closed in embarrassment and remained silent.
"Since there's nothing serious about your foot, we can rest assured. We were really shocked yesterday." Zhao Ling looked at Cao Mo and Xu Xin with doubts in their eyes, but this kind of thing between men and women is a matter of mutual consent, in her heart
He somewhat looked down on Xu Xin, but he wouldn't say anything to her face.
"It's nothing. You don't have to worry about food and accommodation at Lakeside Villa. Assistant Xu doesn't have to worry about no one to take care of you here. Just take half a month's leave and your foot injury should be fine. You still have to rush back to Dracula.
"Mo, then I won't keep you for dinner." Cao Mo motioned to Du Ganjie to arrange a motorboat to take Zhao Ling and Wang Wen ashore.
Seeing Cao Mo eagerly sending Zhao Ling and Wang Wen away, and hearing Jiaying, Lili and the others playing around on the front deck, Xu Xin couldn't help but asked angrily: "You just want me to become a vain person in their eyes."
A woman? You should know that even if I can guess something, I can't possibly tell anyone nonsense. There is no need to hold me here."
"Did I detain you? Your foot was on your own. You accidentally broke your foot and couldn't leave. How did I detain you? If you want to leave now, you can call Zhao Xinyu and ask him to arrange someone.
Come pick you up," Cao Mo put his head on his hands and looked at the cloudless blue sky. "Besides, what's wrong with women being vain? I should be younger and richer than Zhao Xinyu and Guo Jian.
'too much……"
"You..." Xu Xin sat there angrily, not knowing which nerve she had made the mistake of, why she had to be involved in this kind of thing, why she couldn't pretend not to know anything, and carry on with those unsolved questions.
Confused and puzzled, return to China peacefully?

In the next few days, Cao Mo took Xu Xin and Jia with him
Ying and the others went out to sea together, and two small motorboats were also hung behind the speedboat.
Lily, Chen Qi, and Feng Hanhan didn't notice it, but Xu Xin knew in her heart that Cao Mo had a purpose in insisting on dragging her aboard every day.
The target of the speedboat at sea is relatively large, the draft is relatively deep, and it will not leave Lake Conero too far. However, the two motorboats can be driven close to the coast, and extra plastic barrels filled with fuel are carried, so there is no need for towing by the speedboat.
It is not a problem to walk two to three hundred kilometers round trip on the sea alone.
There were several times when the motorboat took a long time to leave. Xu Xin guessed that Cao Mo was using the motorboat to pick up someone along the twists and turns of the coastline, but he didn't meet each other and didn't know who it was.
Cao Mo is still nominally an employee of Dongsheng, and he has gone to the project construction site twice in the past few days to show his face. At this time, Xu Xin would also walk with him on crutches.
She thought that if someone among the overseas employees was really secretly communicating with Guo Jiantong, it must be someone from the permanent industrial park project team. However, without more information, she could not tell who among the eleven dispatched employees of Wang Jianzhong's project team was communicating with Guo Jiantong.
Make secret connections.
She was also curious about who around Lu Yan was secretly delivering messages to Cao Mo.
On the seventh day, Xu Xin woke up in the big bed in the Lakeside Villa as usual. She ate the breakfast brought by the cook, but she didn't see Cao Mo show up, so she thought he had something to deal with temporarily.
She didn't see Cao Mo until nine o'clock. She was a little bored and turned on the computer in her room. She browsed the local website of Canem with the attitude of learning English. She saw a message saying that the Draculamore police were in Longta and De
A gun battle broke out on the banks of the Watts River at the junction of Gullama and gang members who intended to attack members of the Tubman family. In addition to six gang members who were shot dead by the police, five others were arrested by the police on suspicion of murder; one of the Tubman family members
Bodyguard died in gunfight...
Although peripheral members of the Steel Fist Brotherhood once interfered with Dong Sheng's investment in Kanem, Xu Xin was not particularly impressed when she saw the gunfight reports on the website.
Gun battles between the police and gang members, as well as between gangs, always occur several times a month in Draculamore.
"miss Xu!"
Hearing Lakeside Villa manager Steya knocking on the door to say hello, Xu Xin walked over, opened the door, and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Mr. Cao is going out to sea soon, so I want you to go too." Steya said politely.
Xu Xin has been used to Cao Mo coming over to force her to go out to sea every time in the past few days. She didn't see Cao Mo's face today, and she felt a little strange. He wore a thin jacket to protect the sun outside, and used crutches to go to the park where the speedboat was parked.
Walk to the wooden pier.
After she got on the boat, Du Ganjie and Ade, who were standing on the deck, couldn't wait to direct the people to untie the cables. Before Xu Xin could stand firm, the engine started low and pushed the boat towards the center of the lake quickly.
"Where are your brothers and others?" Xu Xin saw Cao Mo's sister Cao Jiaying standing on the front deck, and her two classmates were in the cockpit, but she did not see Cao Mo and Ochosan's daughter Lily. She went to the rear cabin
I walked over and pushed open the half-closed hatch, only to see Cao Mo half-lying on the sofa with a pale face. His lower abdomen was wrapped with a large circle of gauze, and there was a large piece of blood oozing out from his left side...
