"Ah Ming, where are you going so early?" Lin Xiaoxiao went to the bathroom before dawn and saw Luo Qingming quietly closing the door, preparing to leave.
Luo Qingming turned around, "Can't sleep? Let's go for a walk."
Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at him, knowing that something must be wrong, but she didn't press him further. She nodded and said, "Come back soon."
"Um."
Early in the morning, Chu Wuyan came to Lin Xiaoxiao's door.
She also brought along Chu Wuyi, an unemployed young man. Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but glance at him a few more times because of his strange walking posture.
Noticing Lin Xiaoxiao's gaze, Chu Wuyi silently turned around, squatted in the yard, and plucked the tender grass sprouts emerging from the cracks in the blue bricks, looking sullen.
"What happened to him? Did he get beaten up?" Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Chu Wuyan kicked Chu Wuyi in the butt. "Yeah, my dad hung him up and beat him for half an hour."
"Ouch!" Chu Wuyi clutched his buttocks, jumped three feet high, and howled in pain.
"Third Brother Chu, you harmed your own brother! You...you are so vicious!" Chu Wuyi rubbed his buttocks inelegantly, howling like a monkey, "I'm going to tell Grandpa about you!"
Chu Wuyan shrugged, looking completely indifferent.
Lin Xiaoxiao brewed a pot of tea and brought it out, pouring a cup for each of them. "Have some tea."
"I want some too." Chu Wuyi limped over and picked up the teacup.
"Hey, don't..." Lin Xiaoxiao didn't have time to stop him before this big, simple-minded guy gulped it down.
"Ah, it's so hot!"
Tea sprayed out of Chu Wuyi's mouth in a jet-like motion, and the two people affected by it were confused.
Lin Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, wiped the water off her hands, poured out the tea in her cup, and picked up a new cup.
Chu Wuyan glared at his silly younger brother with disdain, "You're so stupid, you're going to die."
The tea was still steaming, but he seemed blind to it.
I wonder where he got this absent-minded personality from.
Knowing he had made a mistake, Chu Wuyi stuck out his stinging tongue, sat down next to Chu Wuyan, and dared not speak again.
"Drink carefully, the water is hot." Lin Xiaoxiao poured him another cup.
"Thank you, Sister Lin." Chu Wuyi obediently accepted it.
Lin Xiaoxiao will be twenty years old in a month, while Chu Wuyi has just turned eighteen, so naturally she has to call him "sister".
Apart from Chu Wuyi, everyone in the Chu family has their own job and is usually so busy that they rarely see anyone.
"He was bored at home and insisted on coming with me," Chu Wuyan explained the reason why Chu Wuyi came with him.
Lin Xiaoxiao is always more tolerant of people younger than herself.
“I have a younger brother who is a little older than you. You can come and play with him often.”
Chu Wuyi's eyes lit up. "Really?"
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded, "Of course it's true. He's not familiar with Beijing, so I'll have to trouble you to take him with you."
"Leave it to me," Chu Wuyi assured, patting his chest. "There's no place in Beijing I don't know."
Lin Xiaoxiao felt at ease letting Luo Qingming play with Chu Wuyi.
After finishing his tea, Chu Wuyan began to get down to business.
He pulled a thick wad of bills from his bag and pushed it in front of Lin Xiaoxiao, who gave him a puzzled look.
Chu Wuyan smiled and said, "This is the money my dad and second uncle gave you for your medicine."
Lin Xiaoxiao gladly accepted it.
They did not refuse.
"Are all the people in your National Security Bureau as free as you?" Lin Xiaoxiao asked, purely out of curiosity, as she watched Chu Wuyan leisurely drinking tea.
Chu Wuyan sighed, "I'm not idle at all, I'm busy to death. There's a lot going on at the watch factory, it's only been a couple of days that things have gotten a little better."
Not many people knew he was an investigator for the National Security Bureau.
To outsiders, he was just the factory manager of a watch factory.
It was only in front of Lin Xiaoxiao that he dared to say things he wouldn't dare to say to others.
"You really don't plan to join us?" Chu Wuyan looked at Lin Xiaoxiao. "I heard that the director also admires you and wants to recruit you into the Intelligence Technology Department to do intelligence work."
With Lin Xiaoxiao's abilities, she would definitely thrive in the Intelligence Technology Department.
She was born for this.
Lin Xiaoxiao has been thinking about what to do next these past two days, as staying idle at home all the time isn't a good idea.
It's not that I necessarily need to go out to work, it's just that I'm bored.
Since she has some ability, she still wants to do something that is beneficial to the country.
For her, the National Security Bureau was definitely the best option.
Catching spies, catching enemy agents... just thinking about it gets my blood pumping.
Sure enough, she was born to do this kind of thing.
"Let's see," Lin Xiaoxiao said after a moment's thought.
Chu Wuyan noticed her softening attitude and was secretly pleased. "Sister, don't forget to help me out when you become successful!"
In his mind, Lin Xiaoxiao would succeed at anything she did.
Whether she becomes a security guard or an investigator, it would be an easy task for her, given her abilities.
Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at him. "Do you still need my help?"
Born with a winning combination, even an ordinary person can achieve heights that are difficult for an average person to reach in a lifetime with the help of their family.
Take, for example, this big, simple-minded guy next to me.
Chu Wuyi, the simple-minded and foolish one: ? ? ?
He's already eighteen and hasn't been sent to the countryside yet, and he doesn't have a job. The people from the rural service office don't dare to come to his door.
That's the allure of power.
Chu Wuyan wailed, "I need it, sister! I need it so badly!"
To be honest, working in the National Security Bureau is really tough.
There are so many people above him with equally good family backgrounds and outstanding abilities. If he doesn't make some real achievements, he can never hope to be promoted in his lifetime.
