Chapter 811 Chen Bao extra (9)
Murong Chen thought about it again and realized it was impossible.
He secretly contacted Lao Sun last night. If Lao Sun sent someone to him, he absolutely couldn't have done so without telling him.
Just as he was glancing at her again and again, repeating this for the Nth time, the girl beside him turned her head and met his gaze directly.
The moment their eyes met, Murong Chen was stunned.
Looking at her, for some reason, that inexplicable sense of familiarity welled up in my heart again.
After a moment of stunned silence, he suddenly realized what was happening and coughed lightly, asking, "Is something the matter?"
The girl withdrew her gaze, which had seemed to be scrutinizing her, and smiled, "Brother, do you have any cooling balm? I'm feeling a bit carsick."
Is this... because they saw that the person in front was not someone to mess with, so they turned around and picked on the "easy target"?
Murong Chen found her quite interesting, but he didn't forget to maintain his persona. He spoke in a rustic dialect, "What's a cooling balm? I don't have one."
Girl: "..."
She seemed to be forcing a smile, said "Oh," and then turned to look out the window again.
Seeing her seemingly frustrated expression, Murong Chen found it somewhat amusing.
After a while, he noticed that she frowned, as if she was really uncomfortable. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Why don't you try pressing Hegu acupoint?"
"Hegu Xue?"
“This is it.” Murong Chen pointed to the spot between her thumb and forefinger.
The girl reached out and rubbed the spot he pointed to for a while. Surprisingly, the nausea rising from her stomach wasn't as noticeable anymore.
She looked at him in surprise: "It really works?"
Murong Chen chuckled sheepishly: "That's what the village doctor told me, isn't it amazing?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Biao, who was in front of him, frowned and turned around: "Didn't your brother tell you the rules for going on missions?"
Murong Chen was taken aback: "What?"
Zhang Quan, who was driving, realized what was happening and quickly said, "This is my fault. It's because Brother Zheng sent him out too hastily. There are many things I haven't had a chance to tell him yet."
He then deliberately put on a stern face and "scolded" Murong Chen behind him: "Shut up, keep quiet on the way back with the people, and don't get involved in things that don't concern you!"
Murong Chen nodded quickly, then apologized to Wang Biao: "I'm sorry, Brother Biao, I was just worried that the girl would throw up in the car and it would be difficult to clean up afterwards."
Perhaps seeing that his attitude was not bad, Wang Biao glanced at him and then looked away without saying anything more.
The girl next to him glanced at him a few more times, but quickly looked away a second before Murong Chen noticed.
Not long after, the car stopped at the factory gate.
Murong Chen, Zhang Quan, and Wang Biao got out of the car. The girl in the car looked around, as if she was curious about everything and wanted to see the surrounding area clearly.
Brother Biao was clearly disgusted by her appearance and, without saying a word, dragged her out of the car: "What are you looking at? Get in!"
The girl was pulled so hard she stumbled and almost fell.
Murong Chen subconsciously reached out to help her, but then hesitated because of Wang Biao, and abruptly withdrew his hand just before reaching out.
Once inside the courtyard, the girl seemed to regain her courage after being "terrified."
"Brother, when do I start working?"
"Bro, this dorm room is so big, and I'm the only one living here?"
"Brother, didn't you say there were other people working with us? Where are the others?"
At first, Wang Biao was fierce towards her, but later he simply lost his temper. Since he had already brought the person back, he told Zhang Quan to keep an eye on her, and then turned to find Brother Zheng.
With Wang Biao gone, Zhang Quan felt a sudden sense of relief and was about to go over to talk to Murong Chen.
Turning his head, he saw Zhou Xingxing beside him, his round eyes looking left and right. He coughed lightly and put on airs, saying, "You, go back to your room now!"
Zhou Xingxing said "Oh," and seeing that Zhang Quan was about to close the door, he quickly poked his head out again: "Brother, when are we eating?"
"Eat, eat, eat! What time is it? You're still thinking about food. You've got a lot of nerve."
Zhou Xingxing's eyes widened: "What time is it? Didn't you say I'd be working tomorrow? How can I work if I don't eat enough!"
Zhang Quan began to understand Wang Biao's feelings.
"Hey, I called you when it was time to eat. Anyway, go back to your room now." After saying that, he didn't care whether Zhou Xingxing went inside or not, and slammed the door shut. The world instantly became quiet.
He let out a sigh of relief and couldn't help but complain, "I think this girl is just stupid. She'll be lucky if she doesn't get scammed by men, let alone try to deceive them."
Murong Chen narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at Zhang Quan.
Zhang Quan realized what was happening and quickly slapped himself: "Hey, Brother Chen, look what I said! Now that you're here, that girl is lucky. She definitely won't have to go out and cheat people anymore. I always forget about that."
"Lucky?" Murong Chen asked sarcastically, "Lucky to have run into you?"
Zhang Quan knew that anything he said at this point would be wrong, so he dared not utter a sound.
Murong Chen didn't say anything more, only glanced at the room and said, "Aren't you going to have someone watch over it?"
Zhang Quan shook his head: "No one needs to watch over it. The doors to these rooms all have combination locks. Once they're closed from the outside, they can't be opened from the inside."
Murong Chen frowned.
Zhang Quan seized every opportunity to make a contribution, and hurriedly flattered, "Brother Chen, you're already here, a few more days won't make a difference. Once you've found the location of headquarters and your police officers arrive, many girls will be able to escape unscathed!"
Murong Chen remained noncommittal: "Nothing else this afternoon, right?"
"Brother Zheng didn't look for it anymore, so it's probably gone."
"Okay, I'm going back to sleep now. Remember to call me if anything happens," Murong Chen said naturally.
"Okay, sure!" Zhang Quan quickly replied.
...
Murong Chen returned to his dormitory and lay on his bed. Instead of sleeping, he wrote down what had happened that day and sent it to Sun Dehai.
He then sent a message to his family to let them know he was safe.
He didn't go home on his first day of work, and his dad and mom are probably going to complain about him again.
Although he was speechless when he thought about his family's situation, he also felt at ease deep down.
Once everything was mostly settled, he put his phone aside, and Zhou Xingxing's face unconsciously came to mind.
Even now, he still feels like he's seen that face somewhere before.
But... where is it?
He had only met a handful of girls in his life. Although Stephen Chow dressed plainly, he was absolutely stunning. If he had seen her, he would never have forgotten her so completely.
After thinking it over and over, he couldn't come up with a solution, and instead unconsciously closed his eyes.
The sky outside the window gradually darkened. Murong Chen slept quite soundly until he vaguely heard rustling sounds coming from the base of the wall outside. Only then did he suddenly open his eyes in the darkness.
