"Is Bai Yu here? Someone said he had something urgent to talk to you about, but I couldn't get in touch with you, so I just brought him here first."
The staff member helped two young men who had bumped into each other, and then signaled to Bai Yu.
"Zhou Yi? Is there something urgent?"
Bai Yu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He didn't expect that Lin Mo, who was in a hurry to go out, would bump into his good friend.
"It's me. I have something urgent to tell you, but you haven't replied to me and I can't get through on the phone, so I just came here directly. I hope I didn't disturb your work."
Zhou Yi used the door frame to steady himself and whispered to his friend.
Bai Yu picked up his phone and took a look. There were indeed a few text messages that he had ignored, as well as a text message notifying him of overdue mobile phone bills.
I forgot to top up my phone bill.
[Zhou Yi: Bai Yu, can you use the method you used last time? I have a very good friend whose condition is also quite serious. He is now locked up in the basement by his family. He is a very nice person. I can guarantee that he will never reveal it to anyone.]
[Zhou Yi: Bai Yu! I saw your reply. I can’t get through to you on the phone. It’s very urgent. His family is planning to send him away tomorrow. He might get killed!]
...
...
[Zhou Yi: If you don’t reply, I will come looking for you.]
Bai Yu: ...Are you so anxious to turn your friend into my shape?
"Let's discuss this privately. We won't decide until tomorrow, so there are still several hours."
Bai Yu put the phone back and glanced across the office, signaling the other party to pay attention to the current environment.
"I understand, I understand. This is a secret between the two of us. I won't tell anyone else. Don't worry."
Zhou Yi lowered his voice and whispered into Bai Yu's neck.
After all, the fact that one can only get medicines that are not available on the market through connections is something that cannot be discussed openly.
After becoming awakened, everyone's hearing ability has greatly improved: ...
"Then I'll contact you after you get off work."
Zhou Yi, who had no idea that all his words could be heard clearly, returned to his normal volume. Only then did he have time to look at Lin Mo, who had bumped into him.
"Um...are you okay?"
Not only did the other person bump into him, but he also hit his head on the door frame due to the reaction force of the collision.
That crisp sound sounds very painful.
"It's okay, it's okay. I was so busy opening the door that I didn't see clearly. I should be the one asking this question."
Lin Mo rubbed the tip of his nose. He was an awakened person, so it was impossible for him to be injured by an ordinary person.
Zhou Yi quickly waved his hand to indicate that he was fine. He was about to turn around and leave, but at some point he stopped, stepped back, and looked at Lin Mo carefully: "You look so familiar."
"He is an alumnus of Qinghe University. I guess I have seen him on campus now." Bai Yu reminded.
"It's not this, it's..."
Zhou Yi looked at Lin Mo's face, his expression gradually becoming complicated.
He remembered that he had seen this person's face in Huang Rui's circle of friends.
At that time, Huang Rui added a sentence "It feels like I encountered a crush", and she also lamented that if Bai Yu also saw this circle of friends, he would probably hide in the quilt and cry again.
Bai Yu, who still didn't know what his friend was thinking, said: "If not, then maybe I've seen it on TV."
But Zhou Yi didn't like watching news on TV, otherwise he would have known that he had joined the Investigation Bureau and often appeared on its exclusive channel.
“Not really.”
Zhou Yi looked at Lin Mo, then at Bai Yu, turned his head to look at Lin Mo, then turned back to look at Bai Yu. His expression became extremely complicated and he lowered his voice again.
"Bai Yu, when did you become so close to your love rival?"
"Snap"
The sound of a pen breaking was particularly obvious in the quiet office.
Under everyone's gaze, Zhou Yi firmly and slowly moved behind Bai Yu, with an awkward yet polite smile on his face.
#What should I do if I become the focus of the whole audience when discussing one sentence? #
#He doesn't know that everyone can hear it#
"What love rival? Why have I never heard you talk about it?"
Chu Zehuai sat up straight and threw the broken pen into the trash can.
"I don't know either."
Lin Mo looked at Bai Yu with his eyes open. How could he not know that he and Bai Yu had become rivals in love?
"Don't you like Huang Rui? I saw you following her last time -"
"Stop talking and go out and wait for me."
Bai Yu tried to push Zhou Yi out, but he felt someone grabbing him from behind the collar.
"So you two are going to look for this Rui now, right?"
Chu Zehuai pulled the man back into the office and looked at Lin Mo with his golden orange eyes.
"You go by yourself. I suddenly remembered that I saw her at a place called Chunfeng Teahouse."
If they were allowed to go, there was a chance that some spark of love would fly.
No, he won't allow it.
Lin Mo looked at his brother, who was listless and couldn't remember what he said the previous second, but was full of energy and dragged his friend back the next second, even stating the place and name clearly. He didn't know what to say for a moment, and just nodded blankly.
The chaotic situation just now calmed down. Yuan Xue and Yan Ran, who were about to eat melons, felt sorry for it.
I thought I could see a good office drama.
As a result, just a few seconds after Bai Yu was dragged back and Lin Mo had just walked two steps out of the office, Zhou Yi actually poked his head out again:
"Your colleague is right. Bai Yu, you should just stay here. Chunfeng Teahouse is an underground place for sex. You should never go there."
The scene suddenly became quiet.
Yuan Xue's expression was a little dazed because of shock: "....a place of entertainment.....is it the place of entertainment I imagined?"
Yan Ran leaned on his workstation with a knife on his back: "Heh, man."
Even Lin Mo stopped in his tracks, his expression was incredulous, and finally turned into a complicated expression: "Brother, no wonder you 'couldn't remember' just now."
If Bai Yu hadn't wanted to go with him, his brother would probably never remember it.
Chu Zehuai suddenly accepted everyone's complicated gazes:........
Wait, he really just went in to buy some tea for his aunt and really didn't do anything.
Zhou Yi, who was standing by, had not yet realized the seriousness of the matter, and quietly gave Bai Yu some scientific knowledge: "The teahouse proprietress is a hot widow with a curvy figure. She lives alone with a blonde child. Any young and energetic man can't resist her. You must never - um -"
"Stop talking now."
Bai Yu covered his mouth with his hand and gave a kind smile.
Didn’t you see that Chu Zehuai looked like he was ready to burn down the entire Investigation Bureau in the next second?
Lin Mo’s mouth is bad enough, why is his good friend also like this?
Bai Yu seriously considered sending the "Art of Speaking" downloaded from the system to the other party so that he could re-cultivate his language system.
**
**
In the end, everyone decided to go to Chunfeng Teahouse together, and by the way, they also picked up Zhou Yi who was waiting on the side.
"I didn't know it was a... ahem, brothel."
Chu Zehuai and Bai Yu were walking in the front, and out of the corner of their eyes they saw two girls talking quietly behind them on the right.
He vaguely heard words like "it's all like this", "men", "basic situation", and "I won't have children anyway".
Yuan Xue and Yan Ran were obviously more aware of the awakened people's hearing, and their voices were lower than Zhou Yi's, so even he couldn't hear clearly.
He sighed. Explaining in this situation always felt like he was trying to cover up something.
Explanation is cover-up, and cover-up is the fact.
"Of course I believe in Captain Chu."
Bai Yu brushed his slightly long hair back and spoke in a casual and natural tone.
Chu Zehuai was stunned for a moment, then hummed softly, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Zhou Yi and Lin Mo walked at the back and talked in low voices.
Perhaps it was because the two of them had the same thing in common: they hit it off right away when they started talking. They talked about everything from Qinghe University to the Investigation Bureau, from Huang Rui to Bai Yu, and the topic never stopped.
Soon, we arrived at Chunfeng Teahouse.
Just as Zhou Yi had said before, the proprietress here was indeed very beautiful, with exquisite features, a hot body, and a charming expression. Her pure black short skirt covered her thighs, her red lips were slightly parted, and a cigarette was pinched between her two slender fingertips.
Bai Yu paused and narrowed his eyes slightly.
It really is a rose.
"Oh, there are so many guests here, please come in."
Ji Yue put out the cigarette in her hand, leaned against the door frame in her high heels and said with a smile.
"No need, the Qinghe City Investigation Bureau is now conducting a routine inspection here."
Chu Zehuai stepped forward and showed his ID, then calmly walked away from the proprietress who was trying to get close to him.
"What? Didn't I just check it a few days ago? Damn it, there must be a colleague who doesn't like me and reported it. Why is my life so miserable? The child's father ran off with his mistress after I gave birth. I'm a widow who worked hard to raise my son. I finally have some hope for the future. Why is fate so cruel to me?"
Ji Yue was stunned for a moment, and then she took out a handkerchief from somewhere and started wiping her tears. Her tearful appearance, coupled with her perfect face and figure, made her look really pitiful.
"But don't worry, I will definitely cooperate with you. We are an orphan and a widow, but we are law-abiding citizens of Qinghe City."
After saying that, she stood up and walked into the house with her weak but strong body. However, she accidentally sprained her ankle on a raised wall tile and fell heavily to the ground.
"Ah! My, my child! My child is only three months old!"
Ji Yue covered her lower abdomen, blood was flowing out, and her beautiful face was pale and painful.
Bai Yu looked at her in disbelief.
We are both plants, why do you stand out?
[Yue Jihua's acting is pretty good.] The system sighed as it looked at the woman lying on the ground.
[I am still learning the art of human speech, but she has already mastered the art of making false statements.] Bai Yu was in a complicated mood. Are the differences between plants so great?
[It's okay, you are stronger than all plants. ]
The system comforted,
[By the way, do you think she will recognize us? ]
[I don't know. After all, I originally occupied a pure human body, and I haven't completely transformed this body yet.]
While Yizhi and Yitong were chatting, Lin Mo wanted to help Ji Yue to the hospital, but was stopped by the other party.
"Don't touch me with your stinky man's hands. Ah! Ah! My child!"
There was a hint of firm rejection in Ji Yue's painful expression.
"Let me do it."
Yan Ran picked up the person and ran towards the hospital. With her awakened strength, it was very easy for her to pick up a woman. She had strong explosive power and disappeared in an instant.
An awkward atmosphere permeated the small teahouse, and the remaining people looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Are you sure what you know is accurate?"
Lin Mo turned his head to look at Zhou Yi and said hesitantly.
This development always exceeds their original expectations.
What if the boss’s wife really had a miscarriage? Wouldn’t they all be reported?
The more Lin Mo thought about it, the more he felt that this was possible, and he began to panic.
He'll definitely beat him to death.
"But when my friend dragged me here by force, I clearly saw—"
Zhou Yi also looked confused, and then said angrily under Bai Yu's gaze,
"I really didn't do anything, I just took a look."
"Could it be that this is really a mistake..."
Yuan Xue whispered, and before she finished her words, she felt the air pressure next to her suddenly drop.
An icy cold air swept through the small space. Chu Zehuai's face looked extremely ugly, and the golden wings behind him opened almost instantly.
When he first came in, he sensed the presence of many people inside, but just now, these auras disappeared at once, and the entire teahouse was empty.
Got cheated.
