Chapter 271 I was too tired last night, eat more
"Alright?" Ji Lianqi took the mouthwash cup and put it aside, then turned around to take Ye Ying's towel and wet it with water: "Wash your face again."
Ye Ying took the towel and wiped it.
Then, when he was about to go downstairs to have breakfast, his feet suddenly felt empty and Ji Lianqi lifted him up.
"Hey, hey, hey, you are exaggerating! We are just a few steps away..."
Ji Lianqi softened his voice and looked down at her: "Aren't you in pain?"
Ye Ying moved her lips and let him hold her and put her on the chair.
"You're the only one making a fuss out of nothing!" Ye Ying muttered after sitting down.
Even though he said that, he couldn't hide the smile on his face.
Seeing Ye Ying smiling but complaining, Ji Lianqi frowned:
"Then what should I do to make you feel better?"
Ye Ying raised her eyebrows in surprise. What's wrong with this guy? Is he serious?!
"You asked that question..." She was embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.
"Then let's eat first. I won't ask any more questions." Ji Lianqi said with interest.
Ye Ying nodded and started eating. She had to go back to the store soon.
"It's getting late, I have to hurry!"
Breakfast was light as usual, but there were two eggs.
Ji Lianqi peeled both eggs and put them in Ye Ying's bowl.
"Don't you want one?" Ye Ying stopped using her chopsticks, stared at the two shiny eggs, and then handed one to him.
Ji Lianqi put the egg back into Ye Ying's bowl: "No, you were too tired last night, eat more."
Ye Ying almost spit out the porridge in her mouth, "Brother, don't be like this!"
"Okay." Ji Lianqi smiled slightly and started eating.
"Oh, right." After a long while, Ye Ying suddenly remembered something important and asked seriously, "Why did you stay with Wei Hongxing for so long this time?"
"What was the final result? Did the investigation reveal anything?"
Facing Ye Ying's series of questions, Ji Lianqi rubbed his brows with a headache, "This involves military secrets, so I can't tell you for now."
"What I can tell you right now is that nothing has happened to me."
Ye Ying understands the special nature of Ji Lianqi's identity, and there are some things he cannot tell her.
But he still couldn't help but joked: "Huh, good guy, you're still on guard against me? I'm not an enemy spy!"
Ji Lianqi was slightly startled, then explained: "It's not what you think. How could you be an enemy spy?"
"It's just that this concerns the safety of the country and its people. There are many things that I can't tell you right now."
Seeing him explaining so seriously, Ye Ying couldn't help but chuckle, "Look at how serious you are. How could I, a patriotic young woman, not know? I'm just teasing you."
"I just wanted to see if there was anything I could do to help. If that's the case, forget it! I have a lot of troubles of my own, too."
Speaking of the fire in the store, Ji Lianqi's expression became serious again, and he put down his bowl and chopsticks:
"Ye Ying, think about whether you have offended anyone recently. This must have been done intentionally by someone."
Ye Ying thought about it, shook her head, and then nodded repeatedly.
"The guy we beat up a few days ago came to the store to cause trouble."
"Did he really go there?" Ji Lianqi frowned deeply, with a hint of nervousness in his eyes: "Did he embarrass you?"
"It's difficult... I think so." Ye Ying lowered her eyes for a while, and suddenly showed a proud smile in Ji Lianqi's nervous gaze: "But he and his men were taken to the police station by Sun Xi and I!"
"You? You took him to the police station?" Ji Lianqi raised his eyebrows, seemingly unconvinced. "How did you do that?"
"In my own way, of course."
At this time, the two had finished breakfast.
Ye Ying smiled mysteriously, supported her waist and slowly stood up, took out a bottle of homemade "Technology and Hard Work" from a hidden box, and showed it to Ji Lianqi like a treasure.
"We used this thing to hit him that day, and he got carried away. The yellow-haired guy and his henchmen were powerless to resist immediately, hahahaha!"
Looking at the smug smile on Ye Ying's lips, Ji Lianqi looked at the bottle of "Henhuo" in her hand, "What is this made of?"
Ye Ying's eyes rolled around and she refused to say anything for a long time.
"It's not convenient to tell you the formula of this thing." Then she glanced at the time and almost jumped.
"No, no, I have to leave quickly. Sun Xi might have already arrived. If he sees the store burned down like that, he will be shocked!"
"Okay, change your clothes first, then sit and wait for me."
Ji Lianqi hurriedly cleaned up the mess on the table, and when he came back, Ye Ying had everything ready.
"Let's go."
After the two of them locked the door, Ye Ying took a few steps in a strange posture and was suddenly picked up by Ji Lianqi.
Ye Ying's eyes were as bright as copper. "Hey, hey, hey, Ji Lianqi, put me down quickly. Don't act like this outside! There are so many people here."
Ji Lianqi ignored her yelling and continued walking forward.
Ye Ying was afraid of falling, so even though she felt embarrassed, she still stretched out a hand and hooked it around his neck.
At this time, Ji Lianqi sighed: "Ye Ying, have you forgotten something?"
Ye Ying reacted immediately and muttered, "Oh, it's impossible to change your words all at once! People always have to go through an adaptation process."
"All right."
Ji Lianqi said nothing more and just quickened his pace.
When they got downstairs, Wei Hongxing, who was taking a walk with his wife, was startled and joked from a distance:
"Oh, if I hold it in my hands, I'm afraid it will break. If I hold it in my mouth, I'm afraid it will melt!"
Ji Lianqi put Ye Ying down and glanced at Wei Hongxing expressionlessly: "Old Wei, if you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."
Wei Hongxing raised his eyebrows and took up his and Sun Lin's intertwined hands. "I can tell from the first glance that you are being overly sentimental. Don't you allow me to be talking about my Linlin?"
Sun Lin at the side interrupted with a smile: "Sister Ye Ying, are you and Captain Ji planning to go to the store together?"
"Oh, yes." Ye Ying nodded, her eyes falling on Sun Lin's belly, "It won't be long! Remember to have your brother Hong Xing keep a close eye on you!"
Sun Lin blushed and lowered her head.
At this time, Ji Lianqi had already ridden his bicycle over.
Ye Ying slowly sat on the back seat and waved goodbye to Sun Lin and Wei Hongxing.
After arriving at the county town, I found Sun Xi pacing anxiously outside the store.
Seeing Ye Ying and Ji Lianqi, he hurried over, worry written all over his face:
"Sister Ye Ying! Are you okay? I came to the store early in the morning and saw you were burned like this. I thought you, I thought you..."
