Chapter 344 I won’t tell anyone
After Jiang Ran appeared in his sight, Shen Yang calmly withdrew his hand from Tao Luyi's shoulder.
After the woman ran away, he looked at Jiang Ran, who looked puzzled, and then glanced at the psychic following behind her: "Patrol?"
"Yeah." Jiang Ran replied seriously, "After I showed Huo Lingyin around the base this morning, she told me there were a few blind spots for surveillance. We could add a few more cameras. I'm researching that now."
"Are you doing this kind of thing?"
"That's right. I represent you and I can't embarrass you." Jiang Ran glanced at Tao Luyi, who was standing obediently beside him with her hands hanging down, and tugged at Shen Yang's sleeve, "Brother, come here."
Shen Yang let her pull his sleeve and walked aside.
Jiang Ran asked quietly, "Is that woman from Sister Lu Yi's family? Do you want me to help you deal with it?"
Shen Yang stared at her: "Is this what you want to talk about?"
"This is also very important. Sister Green will be able to take care of you without being disturbed, and I will feel more at ease when I leave the base."
Shen Yang interrupted her: "Where are you going?"
When he lowered his eyes to look at her, deeper emotions were hidden in his eyes, surging like the sea, but they were concealed by his apparent calmness.
"Si Xu and the others have been gone for almost a month and haven't returned yet. My second brother hasn't come back either. I'm very worried." Jiang Ran scratched his hair, his tone worried. "I think once the base is stable, I'll go to Yancheng to find them."
"Xiaobai is not at the Yancheng base right now." Shen Yang remembered that there was one thing he hadn't explained to her. Seeing that time was almost up, he said, "Xiaobai and Team Z went to the Dongchao base."
"Hmm?" Jiang Ran had no idea what the connection was. He asked directly, "Second brother went to the Dongchao base? Then why did you..."
"In order to avoid causing trouble - Yancheng is just a cover, the Dongchao base is the real mission I gave them."
Jiang Ran was even more confused: "Why?"
"I found some information related to the Dongchao Research Institute in the documents left by my grandfather. I want to know what secrets the underground base hidden behind the Dongchao laboratory holds."
"Dongchao Research Institute?" Jiang Ran thought of the abandoned laboratory where Si Nian had imprisoned Jiang Yize. "Brother, did Grandpa mention Dongchao Research Institute in his files?"
"Yeah." Not wanting to discuss this outside, Shen Yang glanced at the woman waiting on the side of the road, "You go to work first, and we'll talk about it when we get home in the evening."
"Oh oh." Jiang Ran returned to work, "Brother, go home first. I'll come back to see you later."
…
The girl led the waiting psychics to the fork in the road. After Shen Yang watched her leave, he walked towards Tao Luyi and said absentmindedly, "Let's go back."
After taking two steps, he thought of the woman just now: "If that woman comes to you again in the future, tell me and I will deal with it."
Tao Luyi had been looking at him and nodded when she heard that.
Sensing the girl's inquiring eyes, Shen Yang endured it all the way, and finally stopped when he arrived at the Shen family manor: "Tao Luyi."
The girl obediently stopped and stood in front of him.
He raised his chin and asked lazily, "Why are you looking at me?"
Tao Luyi bit her lip and felt that her current thoughts were strange, but... she knew that kind of look, because she must have had that look when she looked at him.
"You..." The girl hesitated and gestured, "Do you like Ranran?"
Shen Yang's eyes were stern, and when they fell on her, there was a bit more inquiry and deep thought.
He didn't answer for a long time, and Tao Luyi became more and more uneasy, with her head hanging even lower, like a quail drenched in rain.
"How did you tell that?"
After the silence, she heard Shen Yang's voice, which was the relief after compromise.
"Is it obvious?"
Tao Luyi hurriedly shook her head - she had been watching him, and she saw his every move and every look.
She thought, it doesn't matter if he likes Ranran, Ranran is a good girl, she likes her too. He likes Ranran, she likes him, they both long for someone they can't have, it's nice to sympathize with each other.
The man's attitude was unclear. Tao Luyi carefully tugged at his sleeve, and when he looked over, she gestured, "I won't tell anyone else." She was afraid that he would drive her away because of this. After all, this was his secret alone, and now, one more person knew it.
Shen Yang stared at her for a while with a complicated expression, then turned around: "It doesn't matter."
After a pause, he added: "She is not my sister."
He knew she wasn't his sister, so he could let himself like her. Others didn't know, so he had to explain it clearly.
People are always harsh on women. Once rumors spread, women are always the first to be maliciously speculated and accused.
He could indulge himself in his own world, but he could not tolerate anyone saying anything bad about her.
…
Huo Lingyin was dragged to the bar by Su Qin. Jiang Ran had originally agreed with them to meet them at the bar after finishing work, but it was already past ten o'clock in the evening when things ended... It was said that Su Qin and Huo Lingyin were drunk, and it was Qiao Qiao who called the patrolman Gu Yunqing to send them back to their residence.
Unable to experience the joy of getting drunk to relieve all sorrows, Jiang Ran returned to the Shen family dejectedly, yawning and wandering towards his room with his eyes closed.
"Jiang Xiaoran." Shen Yang, who had been waiting for a long time in the corridor, called out to the half-asleep girl. When she looked over at him drowsily, he walked up to her and said, "I left some midnight snack for you."
"Ah, thank you, big brother." Jiang Ran hadn't eaten dinner, so when he heard there was a midnight snack, his stomach growled twice. He held his stomach and smiled awkwardly, "I'm just hungry."
Instead of mocking her like he did when they were little, Shen Yang said, "It's very cool outside. Go to the terrace and wait for me. I'll heat it up and serve it to you."
Jiang Ran nodded and dragged his tired body to the terrace.
Seeing her drowsy appearance, Shen Yang was afraid that she would fall down the stairs.
However, it is true that girls change a lot when they grow up.
When she was little, this girl loved to contradict him. Whatever he said, she would do the opposite. Now that she has grown up, she is well-behaved and sensible and not noisy anymore... She was still as cute as she was when she was little.
…
The night breeze is cool, blowing away all the tiredness. There is no moon or cloud in the sky, and the stars seem to be within reach.
Jiang Ran curled up in a rattan chair, staring at the starry sky in a daze.
Shen Yang said that the Z team members went to Dongchao. What about Si Xu? He hasn't been back for so long. Did he also go to Dongchao, or did something unexpected happen?
"Why didn't that guy send me any news..." Jiang Ran muttered, covering his eyes with one hand, "He must be waiting for me to find him, hum."
Now that the situation at Xiling Base is basically stable and Shen Yang's injuries have healed, she can almost let go.
After handing over the work to Shen Yang, she went to Yancheng to look for Si Xu first. If she couldn't find him, she would go to the Dongchao base...
Luo Yuting said that Qin Huai once appeared near Xiling and took Xie Chengzhi away. He didn't know whether Si Xu would run into Luo Rui who went to rescue Xie Chengzhi. If so, he must be careful of the heroine with a deep heart. After all, the heroine is specifically designed to ward off villains like him.
