Ye Xiao was suddenly at a loss. Everything was fine just now, how could it change so suddenly?
Was I really scared just now?
Ye Xiao blamed himself for being too careless. Since she said she was not afraid, he really thought she could accept it. Thinking about it carefully, the scenes just now were indeed too exciting for a girl.
"Then I won't touch you anymore." He suddenly became a little clumsy in his speech.
Lin Tantan felt even sadder after seeing this. Ye Xiaohe had always been so cautious with everyone. In fact, there were many signs, but she chose to ignore them, and then... it became like this.
Lin Tantan felt like a complete sinner. He couldn't even force a smile. He felt like all the strength in his body had been drained away. He whispered, "I want to go back."
Ye Xiao hurriedly took her back.
Lin Tan Tan returned to the villa, went upstairs and lay down on his bed with a blank look in his eyes.
She fell in love with Ye Xiao, which was fine, she could hide her feelings so that no one would see them. Now that the new house was ready, they would definitely not live under the same roof anymore, so she would slowly distance herself from him.
but……
Did Ye Xiao also fall in love with her?
how so?
Had he not yet come to Bai Cheng's senses, or perhaps they hadn't reached that stage yet, and he'd gotten there first? Lin Tantan felt no joy, only panic. What had changed about her? What, exactly, had changed?
She saved Mei Baisheng's life because she indirectly killed Zhou Yan, who had the ability to resurrect. People's life and death could be influenced and overturned by her, so changing a person's emotions did not seem to be a big deal.
But...how can this be possible?
Such a good couple, with such a sincere and deep relationship, was it destroyed by her just like that?
Lin Tantan buried her face in the quilt. The quilt that had been dried in the sun a few days ago was no longer as fluffy and soft. Thinking of the scene when their quilts were touching each other when they were drying them that day, she finally couldn't help but bite the quilt in annoyance and whimpered.
A little hamster struggled out of her pocket, looked at her blankly, touched her hand cautiously, then jumped onto her back and stepped on it twice, completely unaware of what was happening.
Then it jumped off the bed and ran to the door. It tried to squeeze under the crack but couldn't get out, so it had to go out through the balcony.
Ye Xiao stood at the door. There was silence inside at first, and then a very muffled whimpering sound was heard. His heart tightened: Is she really crying?
But why? Even if she was frightened, she shouldn't have reacted like this. Besides, he thought about it again and again, and he still felt that her nerves were not that delicate.
So what are you sad about?
He frowned, feeling that he had encountered the most serious and difficult situation, and was completely confused and anxious.
A little hamster ran out of his room, and seeing him, it jumped on him anxiously, squeaking. Ye Xiao spread out his hands and let it stand on his palms, whispering, "I know, I know she's sad, but there's nothing I can do."
A girl's moods could change so suddenly and without warning. He paused. Could she be upset because Zhou Yan was dead? He quickly dismissed the horrible thought, but one thing was certain: she didn't want to see him right now. Ye Xiao had no choice but to let the hamster go back to stay with her while he went downstairs.
For today's Hongmen Banquet, the preparations here were of course not just Ye Xiao and a few others. The others were also prepared for a big battle. Even after Li Qun's men retreated 500 meters, the entire military camp was under their control.
However, who knew that all the preparations would be of no use.
At this moment, Li Qun was still under their surveillance and control, but the main people had returned and were discussing this matter in the living room downstairs.
"This matter shouldn't be that simple. Although Li Qun's brain is not very bright, he is not stupid. How could he dare to do such a thing without sufficient preparation? But it seems that except for Zhou Yan, he has no other trump cards at all." Bai Cheng analyzed.
Mei Bai said angrily, "That guy said someone took Min Yande's order to kill the boss, and he was forced to cooperate. That useless guy fainted from shock when he saw Zhou Yan dead. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't be woken up, and he couldn't get anything out of him. Do his subordinates know anything?"
Bai Cheng shook his head. "We've interrogated them all. They only know a limited amount. They only know that a bearded man came to Li Qun yesterday, which is why Li Qun suddenly left the base to pick up Zhou Yan."
"Is that man a new face?" At this time Ye Xiao came down from upstairs.
Bai Cheng thought about it again: "It seems so."
Ye Xiao said coldly, "Then go check out the new faces who entered the base yesterday."
This is fine. Bai Cheng immediately sent someone to Lu Jianping.
If you want to check on the new people who have joined the base, you still have to find Lu Jianping, which is very inconvenient, Ye Xiao thought, after all, this is not a place where he can have complete control.
Bai Cheng then asked Ye Xiao, "What are you going to do about Li Qun? He's unconscious, and so many of his men have lost their backbone. If we leave them alone, chaos is bound to break out."
The Li faction itself is not united. Now that Li Qun has fallen, firstly, those people may have some ideas of their own, and secondly, Lu Jianping will not miss this good opportunity.
Thirdly, there are people who are said to be sent by Min Yande to stir up trouble, and they might take the opportunity to do something.
Ye Xiao thought for a moment and said to Jiang Xiaotian, "Get on the line. I want to talk to Min Yande."
Jiang Xiaotian did as he was told immediately.
This was the first time that Ye Xiao took the initiative to contact Min Yande after arriving at the Ning City base. The communication channels between them had always been open, but it was mainly the other side contacting this side, and because there was no consent from this side, the call requests could not be answered, and they could only send emails.
This time, the call request was passed on, and the operator answered the call shortly afterwards: "...Hello, I'll transfer you to General Min right away."
Far away in the capital, in a certain building, a middle-aged man with a thick frame and a somewhat fat look was knocking on the table. He was waiting for news from Ning City. According to the plan, Shen Ji was about to pick up the person at this time. A person with five-element superpowers, what benefits could he get from this?
However, the news came, but it was not what he was waiting for.
The subordinate walked in with a serious expression: "Ye Xiao requested a call."
Min Yande cheered up, feeling a little surprised, but not too surprised.
What was surprising was that the other party finally took the initiative to find him. What was not surprising was that he knew that if Li Qun fought with Ye Xiao, he would only be crushed. Ye Xiao had suffered such a sudden blow, so he must get to the bottom of it.
He picked up the phone with the indicator light flashing on the desk. This was no ordinary call. Communications were cut off across the country, and only some channels that had been urgently repaired or temporarily established could transmit information. This phone looked ordinary, but in fact, no one knew how much manpower and material resources were involved. Not everyone could put one on their desk.
This thought flashed through Min Yande's mind, and then he said in a tone of accusation, "Ye Xiao, I've been waiting for your call for a long time. If I didn't know you, I would have thought you had completely forgotten about me, your boss, and were going to betray the organization."
Min Yande knew what words were most appropriate to use against Ye Xiao. His words carried great weight with Ye Xiao, practically touching his weak spot. However, there was only a moment of silence before a cold, stern voice came over: "Major General Min, no, I should call you General Min now. I heard you want to kill me?"
Min Yande noticed a change in Ye Xiao, but he didn't take it to heart. It was natural for him to be angry. Min Yande pretended to be surprised: "What do you mean by wanting your life? Why do I want your life?"
"What? I never issued such an order, nor did I send such a person. It was all Li Qun's decision. Hey, this Li Qun, I heard that he discovered a person with three-element superpowers, so I praised him. Who knew that he got too proud of himself? I will definitely teach him a lesson... Ye Xiao, you have been in Ning City for a long time. I heard that the Ning City base is doing well. Now that people are dying all over the country, there are fewer deaths. You have contributed to this. I will commend you, but it is time for you to come back. People like you are needed here more."
After a moment's discussion, he narrowed his eyes. "Li Qun has contracted a strange disease and is in a coma? You want to take over Li Qun's position? No, no, no, it would be a waste of time to have you stay in that small place. Come back, and I'll find someone else to take over Li Qun's position."
Not knowing what was said on the other end, Min Yande's expression gradually changed. "Give it to Lu Jianping?" His voice suddenly rose two degrees. "Do you really have to go against me? Figure out which side you're on!"
However, the other party had already hung up. Min Yande slammed down the phone, furious. This Ye Xiao, he couldn't be suppressed, couldn't be commanded, and even if he was left alone, he would still cause trouble. He regretted it now. If he had known earlier, he shouldn't have made things so awkward with the other party over Old Chen's grandson, nor should he have been so tough in trying to suppress his arrogance. In the end, he didn't gain any advantage at all, and Old Chen's grandson was nowhere to be seen. Instead, their relationship became so strained.
Forget it, it's just a Ning City base. There are so many small bases like this in the country. If it's lost, it's lost. The real benefits are the most important. He asked impatiently: "Did they succeed over there?"
The subordinate replied, "No news yet, but the divine aircraft is already in place and the pilot has not received any instructions."
That is to say, before he could get the person, Ye Xiao had already captured Li Qun and was able to free up his hands. If he still didn't succeed at this time, there would be no hope later.
Min Yande sat down solemnly: "A bunch of trash!"
At the Ning City base, Ye Xiao took the initiative to cut off communication and went to Lu Jianping in person. Lu Jianping had already learned that Ye Xiao led his men to "kill" into Li Qun's territory and killed some three-series mutant that Li Qun had just brought back yesterday. Li Qun was frightened and fainted and has not woken up yet.
Lu Jianping was quite confused. Had these two people really gotten into such a mess? But it was good for him anyway. He was just about to take over Li Qun's territory and people when he heard Ye Xiao coming.
His expression darkened slightly. Yes, and there was also Ye Xiao. He wouldn't want to become the second Li Qun and point his sword at him, right?
Even though he thought so, Lu Jianping still greeted him with a smile. When Ye Xiao arrived, he got straight to the point: "Do you want the regular troops under Li Qun?"
Lu Jianping was stunned.
Ye Xiao continued, "If you want it, take it. There are a total of 60,000 to 70,000 troops on the payroll. After some sorting, at least two-thirds of them are still usable. In addition, there are also quite a few trained miscellaneous troops. Those who are not loyal to Li Qun will obey you if you treat them better."
Lu Jianping felt excited after hearing this. The reason why Li Qun was able to compete with him was because of these people. If he could win over these people, his position as the head of the base would be completely secure.
"You don't want it?" he asked Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao shook his head. Min Yande would not approve the procedures for him. Even if he did, there would be countless ways to hinder him. He had already found a path that was more suitable for him. Why should he take over someone else's business? Li Qun's business was not so easy to take over.
He said, "Since you need someone, report it immediately and take over the position legitimately. Rectify what needs to be done and discipline those who are no longer on the payroll. Otherwise, things will go wrong."
Lu Jianping thought about it and said he would do it immediately, and then asked Ye Xiao what he wanted. He didn't believe that Ye Xiao was so selfless and dedicated to others that he didn't want anything.
Ye Xiao did have his own plans. He said he had three demands. First, he wanted one-third of Li Qun's weapons inventory. Second, he wanted a larger area next to the land on the east side as his private territory. Third, he wanted certain positions that originally belonged to the Li faction.
Lu Jianping thought about it carefully and agreed.
After discussing this, they took out the information of the new people who entered the base yesterday and looked through it. Every new face had to be photographed when entering the information. Among them, there were many people with sloppy beards, not to mention those with long beards. However, when Li Qun's confidant was pulled over to identify them, he quickly pointed out one of them.
A man in his early thirties with a small goatee, he looked very ordinary, but there was something unusual in his eyes that tried to appear dull.
Look at the name, Ding Jinbo, a very unfamiliar name, but when Ye Xiao looked at the photo in the computer, he felt that it looked familiar. After a moment, he finally remembered it.
Lu Jianping asked, "Do you know him?"
"I met him once during a mission abroad. He's a Chinese expatriate, a professional bodyguard and part-time assassin. He's had plastic surgery and his name is fake." Ye Xiao narrowed his eyes. He was a vicious and treacherous guy. He looked at the photos of the three companions who came in with him and said to Lu Jianping, "Captain Lu, would you mind issuing a base-wide arrest warrant for me?"
The five, unaware they were about to be wanted by the entire base, had already learned of Li Qun's complete failure. Oh, this wasn't surprising; it was inevitable, wasn't it? Ding Jinbo, the mustachioed man, had placed a subtle eavesdropping device on Li Qun, intending to keep him informed of the decoy attempt. Instead, he'd overheard Zhou Yan's death.
Knowing that Ye Xiao killed a three-element mutant over and over again, and finally killed and burned him completely, several people felt that it was a waste of resources and felt a chill, as if they had been killed and burned several times.
In order to prevent Li Qun from revealing more information about them, Ding Jinbo knocked him out with a trace of mental power that had been reserved in Li Qun's mind in advance. However, even this did not make them feel much better. As long as they were still in the base and in the enemy's territory, they were not safe.
"I'm afraid this mission cannot be completed. Should we retreat?" said the woman with braids.
"Zhou Yan is dead, Li Qun is doomed, and the divine machine is already in place. Even if we want to withdraw, will Min Yande, who has invested so much, agree?" Ding Jinbo said grimly, "We have no way out."
If Zhou Yan was still in their hands, there would still be room for maneuver, but they have no chips in their hands now, and their employer has already invested too much. If they don't satisfy the employer, the employer will not let them off easily.
Ding Jinbo's communicator suddenly rang. He put his hands over his ears and answered, "We haven't succeeded yet... It's our fault, yes, yes." He let out a breath and said to his companion, "No matter what, we have to take him away."
Just at this time, one of the five people who stayed near the villa brought news that Ye Xiao and the target had gone back, and then Ye Xiao left again, leaving only the target in the villa. Although there were many people protecting them, it was not impossible to give it a try.
Opportunity is fleeting.
They hurriedly discussed the main steps, including how to leave the base after they succeeded. However, just as they came out of their hiding place, a car happened to drive past on the road. It was a van, and the car honked its horn. It was also equipped with a huge electronic screen. On the electronic screen were photos of four of the five of them. Their faces were full of suffering and hatred, as if they were the suspects' posthumous photos.
The loudspeaker continued to blare: "Today, four people suspected of having spatial abilities, Ding Jinbo, Zhou Hong, He Fan, and Wang Shuo, have sneaked into the base and are attempting to steal supplies. If you discover them, please report them immediately. If the report is true, there will be a reward..."
Ding Jinbo and others: "..."
Are you sick?
The people in the base were furious when they heard the broadcast. Where did these people with space abilities come from? And there were four of them at once. Did they want to empty their base?
Some thought the base's granary had been stolen, which wasn't good for the entire base. Others wondered if they'd recently stockpiled food at home and what if those four stole it? In short, thieves were incredibly annoying, especially now that every household was starving. Stealing their food was like taking their lives. Everyone was furious, staring intently at the avatars on the screen, ready to keep their eyes peeled for the thief.
Suddenly, the person opposite pointed at them and said, "Look at those guys, aren't they..."
Ding Jinbo gritted his teeth and shouted, "Run!"
Fortunately, they were fast and ordinary people couldn't catch up. When they ran to a safe place, Ding Jinbo slammed the wall hard: "Fuck! Fuck! Ye Xiao!"
The repeated setbacks had nearly made him lose his mind. He suddenly chuckled, "I've discovered we've been stuck in a dead end."
The other three looked at him. Ding Jinbo said, "Just because we want to capture Lin Tan Tan doesn't mean we have to target her. Wouldn't it be enough to capture someone close to her and force her out? Women are emotional creatures. As long as we capture the person most important to her, she won't take the bait."
The three looked at him as if he were a fool. The woman with braids, using the alias Zhou Hong, said tactfully, "Not to mention that Lin Tantan doesn't seem to have anyone particularly important, she's a five-element psychic. Even if she's willing to risk her life, the people around her won't agree. And then there's Ye Xiao. He's bound to come up with a solution. If we try to lure her out, we're also exposing ourselves. It's too dangerous."
Ding Jinbo sneered: "What if we caught Ye Xiao?"
Three people: "..."
The three of them looked at him with an expression that said, "He must be really stupid."
Ding Jinbo said angrily, "Haven't you noticed? He protects Lin Tan Tan very well, but he himself is more used to being alone. He is too confident in his own strength! And there are five of us! Is Ye Xiao really invincible? Don't think too highly of him. Have more confidence in yourselves."
The three of them still looked at him as if he were a fool. Zhou Hong said, "If Zhou Yan were still here, I'd still have some confidence with him."
Ding Jinbo choked. Yes, it was such a pity that Zhou Yan died. If only this plan had been made earlier. He waved his hands in frustration, "Forget it, forget it. Let's slowly find a breakthrough."
At this time, the loud trumpet sounded again: "Today, there is a suspected space-capable person named Ding Jinbo..."
"..." Ding Jinbo, "Damn it, find a place to hide!"
…
Ye Xiao didn't know that he was almost targeted. Although Li Qun said that someone was going to kill him, Ye Xiao didn't actually believe it. The main reason was that doing so would not benefit Min Yande. Although he was disobedient, he didn't make Min Yande hate him to the point of killing him.
So what’s the real idea behind this whole thing?
Of course, in addition to thinking about this, he was more worried about whether Lin Tantan was in a better mood now.
Thinking of his little girl, Ye Xiao felt that there was nothing to worry about. She alone was enough to give him worries and headaches.
Just when I was worried that she was still locked in the room, I went back and found her sitting on the sofa talking to Mei Bosheng. I don't know what she was talking about, but she was still smiling. Her face was clean, without any signs of crying or unhappy look.
Before Ye Xiao could breathe a sigh of relief, the little girl suddenly turned around and saw him. Her smile froze, and then she smiled even brighter: "You're back!"
Ye Xiao didn't feel happy at all, and his heart sank.
He smiled sincerely at first, but after seeing himself, the smile became very fake.
Her sudden abnormality was due to herself.
Realizing this, Ye Xiao felt a little depressed.
He walked over and asked calmly, "What are you talking about?"
Mei Bosheng said, "She asked how many of our family members we have now and whether the house will be big enough for us after it's built. She wanted a one-bedroom apartment facing the sun."
Ye Xiao's eyes flashed, and he smiled and said, "We now have 2,000 official members, plus their families, a total of nearly 5,000 people. We have enough space for everyone, but we need to expand in the future, so I asked Lu Jianping for another piece of land, which also includes the villa area. So we should just stay here and not move."
"Not moving?" Lin Tantan reacted strongly. She had just avoided his gaze and pretended to be busy looking here and there, but when she heard him, she quickly raised her head and said, "Didn't you say before..."
Ye Xiao asked with a smile in his eyes: "Tan Tan, are you tired of living here?"
"Uh..." Lin Tan Tan was about to say no, but after a pause, he looked up and said confidently, "It's not that I'm tired of it, it's just that it's a new house over there, wouldn't it be a pity not to live in it? I've already thought about how to decorate it, otherwise, I'll just move out by myself."
After all, they had to move out. Ye Xiao shifted his gaze downwards. The little girl was smiling openly and cheerfully, and her two restless fingers were about to tear the pink embroidered pig on the hem of her clothes.
Ye Xiao curled his lips lightly: "Just kidding, there are still many people of status living in the villa area, can we ask them to move out? Even if the villa area is not included, we still have to move."
Lin Tantan breathed a sigh of relief, grabbed the water cup and drank it, and stopped looking at Ye Xiao.
Others asked Ye Xiao how the conversation between him and Lu Jianping went, and Ye Xiao told them everything.
"Li Qun has also been handed over to him. Li Qun has some talented people under him, and we can extend an olive branch to them. Two thousand people are still too few."
"I'm going to move some stuff from the armory tomorrow. Is the warehouse at the construction site finished?"
"I've requested some jobs, which I can assign to everyone. There are also some vacancies for gate guards. Bai Cheng, please find suitable people to fill them, and then arrange for two more people to go to the temporary residence registration office to work. We can't be completely in the dark about who's coming and going in the base."
Lin Tan Tan seemed to be listening very seriously, nodding from time to time, as if she was participating seriously, but in fact her eyes had drifted somewhere else. Ye Xiao knew at a glance that she was just pretending.
As expected, it was finally eight o'clock in the evening. She stood up and said, "I'm going to bed."
Ye Xiao also stood up and said that he wanted to go wash up.
Lin Tan Tan walked in front, and Ye Xiao followed behind him upstairs. However, when they reached the door of the room, Ye Xiao suddenly said, "Tan Tan, I seem to have pulled a wound today, and my ribs are still aching. Can you help me treat it?"
Lin Tan froze for a moment, then turned around and said, "Oh, let's go downstairs..."
"Now that you're up here, come to my room, or should I go to yours?"
Lin Tan's face became even stiffer.
Ye Xiao said: "It's not like we haven't been alone together at night before."
Lin Tantan's face was about to crack, and he said hurriedly: "This, this, this is definitely not good."
It was because they had been alone together for too long that the current mess had occurred. How could Lin Tantan dare to continue?
After thinking it over, she decided to make her stance clearer. "I wasn't careful enough before," she said. "Now, if I think about it, even if we're just friends, there are still differences between men and women, so I still have to avoid suspicion. I still have to find a boyfriend and get married in the future. If my future partner knew I was being too close to another man, he would be so heartbroken."
With every word she spoke, Ye Xiao's face became stiffer and colder.
This was explicitly rejected.
In the past, she was just like a kitten, she would retract her claws when she saw something wrong, hide nervously, and hug her pillow in the middle of the night and want to run away from home pitifully. But now she directly says that she wants to move out and find a boyfriend and get married.
Ye Xiao's mind was in a mess for a moment.
I was angry and confused, and my chest really hurt.
He suddenly took two steps towards Lin Tantan, and Lin Tantan quickly shrank towards his door, ready to turn the doorknob and hide in at any time.
Ye Xiao was tall, and he blocked Lin Tantan at the door like a cat. He lowered his head with a sullen face, tried to calm down, and forced a smile: "Why, Tantan wants to have a boyfriend?"
"Well, that day will always come, won't it? I'm trying to prevent future troubles." Oh my god, this smile is so scary, it feels like his expression will change drastically in the next moment.
Ye Xiao's expression remained unchanged. He continued to smile, "So I'm a 'troublemaker,' huh?" He looked at Lin Tan Tan, "You're already worried about your so-called boyfriend, even though we don't know where he is, or how tall or short he is, and you're worried about him being upset. And here I am, standing right in front of you, and you're not worried about me being upset?"
Lin Tantan laughed so hard that his face almost broke: "This, this..."
Ye Xiao took a step closer, his voice softening, a little hoarse: "Let's talk. You know my feelings, right? Besides running away, won't you consider accepting me? I'm sincere."
Lin Tantan felt as if she had been electrocuted. The hoarse, low and somewhat aggrieved voice seemed to come into her ears. She almost couldn't stand. She held on to the door handle behind her tightly to keep her balance. But the door handle was held too tightly and she accidentally pushed it down, and she fell backwards.
Ye Xiao quickly reached out to pull her, holding her arm with one hand and her waist with the other.
Their bodies were almost touching.
Ye Xiao looked down at her, his eyes deep and gentle, as if trying to lure her into falling in love with him.
Lin Tantan leaped up like a madman, pushing him away. She said dryly, "What are you talking about? Aren't we good friends? I, I don't have any feelings for you at all. Hahaha, that's so weird. No, I mean, you're so good, you'll meet someone better. I'm actually pretty terrible..." Oh, what on earth was she talking about? "It's getting late. I'm going to bed. Bye, good night." She stepped back, slipped inside quickly, and slammed the door shut.
As soon as she entered, she scratched the wall desperately. Ahhhh, with Ye Xiao's personality, shouldn't he let go of all his worries after understanding her clear attitude, and then they should still maintain their previous relationship and pretend that nothing had happened?
It was obvious that he had concealed it very well whenever she showed signs of avoidance and uneasiness. He was extremely considerate and kept a proper distance. He didn't cause her any trouble and didn't make any advances. Otherwise, she wouldn't have kept convincing herself that nothing was wrong and only discovered the problem now.
As long as neither of them says anything, things will definitely fade over time. After all, they've only known each other for a short time, so how deep can their feelings be? It would be easy to calm down now.
But why did I have to let it out? It will be so awkward when we meet again after it’s revealed!
How could she know that she didn't notice anything before and just avoided it instinctively. Ye Xiao naturally had the patience to take it slow with her. Now that she said she wanted to find a boyfriend and get married, it would be strange if he could still remain calm.
In fact, he was about to explode!
Ye Xiao stared at the door in front of him for a long time, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, struggling to suppress all the emotions that were about to erupt and the urge to break in and get to the bottom of things, then he pursed his lips tightly and returned to his room.
Well, she just didn't think about it that way.
The slow-witted little girl finally realized his feelings, was frightened, and instinctively ran away, but she didn't expect that there was still a possibility of accepting him.
That's right.
He can still take his time, take his time... what the hell is slowing down!
Ye Xiao pounded the wall heavily.
Ye Xiao thought about it all night, and Lin Tantan also tossed and turned all night.
Shao Ping couldn't sleep that night. He looked at the five people who occupied his little nest and whose faces barely showed "I'm not to be trifled with" written all over them, and felt that the whole world was too cruel to him.
"You can stay with me temporarily, but I really can't help you with anything else. How would I know if Lin Tantan has any important people? I'm really not familiar with her! Why don't you go find Mingze? He's someone Lin Tantan knows well. Oh, and he has to see Lin Tantan tomorrow!"
Several people looked at him, and Ding Jinbo asked, "Are you serious?"
"Yes, I found out everything. He will talk to Lin tomorrow to report on the clinic."
Ding Jinbo: "Okay, find a chance to put something on Mingze tomorrow."
Shao Ping: “…” So why do you still need him to run errands?
The next day Mingze went to the villa as expected.
Lin Tantan hid in the room for a long time, and only dared to come out after Ye Xiao left. She really didn't know how to face him. What if he said that kind of thing again? Lin Tantan asked herself, could she say such heartless words? It was too difficult.
How should I solve this problem?
At this time Mingze came to the door, and Lin Tantan perked up and listened to the clinic's affairs, which were actually just how many patients came every day, how much income there was, whether there were any patients that could not be treated, etc.
Mingze looked hesitant after he finished speaking, as if he wanted to say something. Lin Tantan suddenly noticed his face. He was really handsome, gentle and fair-skinned. He was the type of cool, academic and campus male god that girls liked.
Lin Tantan couldn't help but think that using a future partner who was nowhere to be found to reject Ye Xiao, who was already in front of him and was so outstanding in every aspect, did make people feel perfunctory and false, but what if that partner had already appeared?
In fact, she and Mingze met only a few days later than she met Ye Xiao. It was quite believable that they fell in love over time. Moreover, they were both wood-type mutants and had more contact at work before, so they had a common language.
Mingze is also very good-looking.
The more he thought about Lin Tan Tan, the more he felt there was hope. His eyes became brighter and brighter when he looked at Mingze, as if he was looking at a piece of shining gold.
Mingze was about to confess his secret to her. Instead of letting Shao Ping tell it, he decided to confess it himself. He took a deep breath and was about to speak when Lin Tantan suddenly said, "Mingze, how about you being my boyfriend?"
Mingze was so frightened by her that he almost fell off the sofa, his mouth opened in shock: "W-what?!"
Lin Tantan wanted to say it was fake, temporary, but then he thought, why would he get involved in this? Although Ye Xiao was a very reasonable person, if he felt that he was emotionally inferior to Mingze and took his anger out on him, wouldn't Mingze be miserable?
Don't underestimate a man's self-esteem.
Moreover, seeing how scared Mingze was, she felt that it would be better not to drag this fragile guy into this.
Lin Tantan sighed and waved his hands weakly: "It's nothing, I was just talking nonsense, don't take it to heart."
Mingze was so frightened by her that he forgot what he had said and was still in a daze when he left the villa.
The five monitoring team looked at each other in surprise, as if they had found a treasure.
Boy friend!
This Mingze is actually the person Lin Tantan likes. It turns out that the person they are looking for is both far away and right in front of them. God is really helping them!
Lin Tantan was difficult to approach and hard to catch, but Mingze was too easy to catch. Mingze was caught almost as soon as he left the villa area.
