The shop was still deserted as usual. Zhou He couldn't drink coffee, so Cheng Wei ordered a cup of black tea for her and asked for a crunchy cookie that the boss had just baked.

Although there are few people who come to drink coffee, the small dessert here is quite popular with the owner.

Cheng Wei asked for a cup of coffee, quickly sat down, took out a tissue and handed it to Zhou He, asking her to wipe the sweat from her forehead.

Although she was often active at home, she hadn't walked that far for a long time, and the fine sweat on her forehead was shiny.

Zhou He said thank you and took the tissue.

The environment here is quiet, the two of them are sitting, Zhou He turned his head sideways to look at the flowers and plants planted by the boss under the eaves, and Cheng Wei also did not speak.

After sitting for a while, Cheng Wei's mobile phone rang. He took it out and looked at it, said something to Zhou He, answered the phone, and went out with his mobile phone.

When he went out, the boss came over with a small piece of cream cake, put it on the table, and said, "Practice how it is, taste it, I haven't seen you come for a long time." ”

Zhou He came to this café for a short time, but he didn't expect the boss to remember himself, smiled slightly, and politely thanked him.

After the boss put down the little dessert and began to fiddle with her flowers and plants, Zhou He looked at it, and asked from time to time about the tips for raising flowers and plants.

The boss didn't hide it either, and said carefully. The two talked for a while and didn't see Cheng Wei come back, she looked up at the defense line where Cheng Wei was stationing, and asked curiously, "Is that your boyfriend?"

Cheng Wei's appearance is eye-catching wherever he goes.

Zhou He shook his head with a slight smile and said, "No, just a friend." ”

The boss was noncommittal and smiled meaningfully. Someone came in for coffee, and she went to the back to get busy.

Cheng Wei didn't come in for a long time on the phone, Zhou He sat for a while, drank half a cup of black tea in the cup, and then slowly walked out.

As soon as he arrived outside, Cheng Wei walked over. His voice was low and gentle, "Aren't you sitting?"

The sun was fine on this day, but it was already overcast. It looks like it's going to rain.

Zhou He's footsteps paused, looked up at the sky, and said, "Don't sit, it seems to be raining." ”

She walked a little slowly, even though it wasn't far, and it would take a while to walk back.

Cheng Wei snorted, and as soon as the two of them came down the steps, big drops of rain fell.

Cheng Wei's brows furrowed, and Zhou Hexian stood in place. I quickly entered the café and borrowed a black umbrella from the owner. Then he propped it up on Zhou He's head.

The two walked slowly in the alley, but fortunately although the rain was heavy, the rain did not come in a hurry, and they walked back to the house, and the rain began to fall.

Cheng Wei put away the umbrella and put it at the door, dripping with water, and Zhou He found that a large piece of wet shoulder on his left side was wet. She wasn't wet at all.

At this time, the aunt had already greeted her and said, "It's going to rain anyway, don't go far when you go out in the future." It would be bad if it got wet. ”

Zhou He nodded and said yes. After entering, he took a dry towel and handed it to Cheng Wei.

Cheng Wei said that it was okay, wiped it casually, and sat down on the sofa. He couldn't go home in the heavy rain, so the two of them watched TV on the sofa.

The weather outside was gloomy, Zhou He didn't have a lunch break at noon today, and he fell asleep while sitting on the sofa watching TV and watching TV.

She soon let out an even breathing sound, and when she saw her aunt coming over, Cheng Wei made a silent gesture, got up and hugged a blanket to cover her.

On rainy days, the old house was damp, cold and gloomy. When Zhou He woke up, the living room was already burning with Wangwang's charcoal, and Cheng Wei sat in front of the small stove and dialed the charcoal, with a serious expression on his face.

The house was quiet and peaceful. Like many evenings before. Zhou He was inexplicably in a trance, and sat in a daze.

The charcoal fire crackled from time to time, and Cheng Wei found that Zhou He had woken up after a while. He put down the pliers in his hand and said, "Wake up." Auntie is already stir-frying for a while and can eat. ”

Zhou He came back to his senses and nodded. She had just woken up, and her voice was hoarse, and she answered the hello. Then get up and go for a light wash.

When I came out, the dishes were already on the table, and the aunt boiled the milky white fish head soup, and the table was steaming.

Zhou He sat down, and Cheng Wei served her soup first. He asked again, "Is it cold?"

Zhou He wears a lot and doesn't feel cold. Shaking his head, he said, "It's not cold." ”

Cheng Wei nodded, ate for a while, and said: "When the weather is good, find someone to make the waterproofing at home, too humid is not good for your health." ”

Zhou He sighed, and didn't say yes or bad. Cheng Wei didn't speak anymore now.

He was quite intrigued, and after eating, he did not sit any longer, and quickly got up and left.

Xu Yuanning came back late these days, Zhou Hegang couldn't sleep anymore, didn't go upstairs, and waited downstairs for Xu Yuanning to come back.

The aunt added the fire to the stove and said, "The carbon given by Mr. Cheng is really good, and there is no smell of smoke at the beginning." ”

Zhou He hummed and nodded.

In the next few days, Zhou He didn't see Cheng Wei again. Xu Yuanning didn't go out early and return late anymore, and often stayed in the study upstairs. Although he was always smiling in front of her, Zhou He could tell from his tightly knit brow that things weren't going well.

She hesitated for a long time, and when Xu Yuanning was smoking, she stood next to him and said, "Senior Brother Xu, aren't things going well?"

In her current situation, she should have a good rest and not think about this. But if she didn't tell her, she would obviously only be more worried.

Xu Yuanning was silent for a moment, and said: "Mr. Cheng sent the evidence to someone who could be relied on, but there is no response now. ”

They had painstakingly gathered the evidence, and if it had been intercepted, it would have been a failure, and it would have been a surprise.

Zhou He subconsciously pursed his lips and asked, "Did my uncle hear anything over there?"

Li Ruifeng is in Kyoto, and the news is better than theirs.

Xu Yuanning shook his head and said, "Uncle Li didn't hear any movement over there. Something must have been pressed down. He paused slightly, showed some tiredness between his eyebrows, and said: "Their network is much bigger than we imagined. ”

Zhou He fell silent for a moment. After standing for a while, he looked at Xu Yuanning and said, "It's different if the evidence is handed over directly, so what if it is exposed?"

Xu Yuanning smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that we haven't thought about this. Their power is great, even if there is definite evidence, but the parties are either no longer there, and if they are still there, due to their power, I am afraid that they will not come out to testify, and I am afraid that they will be beaten upside down at that time. ”

Yes, those who are still there, have seen the other party's power at the beginning, and there is no way to ask for help. Most of them probably don't dare to provoke each other again.

Zhou He didn't speak anymore. After a while, he asked in a low voice, "Then what should I do now?"

Xu Yuanning looked outside, paused, and said, "Now we have to observe and make plans first." Mr. Cheng may create some public opinion after a while. ”

His eyebrows had not been opened, Zhou He hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Senior Brother Xu, do you have anything else?"

Xu Yuanning's body stiffened slightly, and after a while, he said, "Ahe, I'm going back to Kyoto." ”

Wei Renyi has already begun to purge dissidents, although his father has retired, but his uncle is still in office, and he doesn't know how long he can last. Moreover, even if he has already retired, if Wei Renyi really wants to find something to come out, it will not be difficult.

Zhou He couldn't help but be stunned. He is going back, and he is about to appear before everyone.

Xu Yuanning naturally wouldn't say anything to her, smiled slightly, looked at her sideways, and said, "I should go back too." ”

Although she is recovering well, she is still worried about her. As soon as she recovers better, he will go back.

He didn't say anything, but he hadn't mentioned going back to Kyoto before. Something must have changed.

Zhou He's heart was heavy, he nodded, said hello, and said, "Senior Brother Xu, don't worry about going back to you, you see I'm already getting better." I can take care of myself. And there's an aunt here, you don't have to worry about me. ”

Xu Yuanning nodded, smiled slightly, and said, "Ahe is the strongest." ”

He quickly shifted the conversation to something else.

When it was time to go upstairs to sleep later, Zhou Hecai said, "Senior Brother Xu, you must pay attention to safety. ”

Xu Yuanning was stunned for a moment, and responded with a smile.

Xu Yuanning finally didn't wait until she was completely well before returning to Kyoto, and three days later, she simply packed her luggage and flew to Kyoto.

Things are not going well, whether it is Cheng Wei or Li Peiyuan who is here, they are busy, and there is often only Zhou He alone in the house.

She began to intensify her practice every day, and sometimes after a day of activity, her legs and arms hurt badly when she lay in bed at night. She was never silent.

The results of the re-examination every once in a while were good, and although she couldn't go out to work immediately, she began to find a part-time job. There are companies looking for part-time translators, so you don't have to work on duty. She thought for a moment and submitted her resume.

The other party didn't know if it was a lack of people or what, so he sent an article to her that night to translate.

Zhou He stayed up late for the first time in a long time, and her hand speed was much slower than before, and it was only in the early hours of the morning that she translated the article and sent it to the other party. Then lay down on the bed.

She wasn't expecting a reply anytime soon, but when she woke up the next morning, a new email was already lying in her mailbox. The other party was very satisfied with her translation, happily gave the price, and asked her if it was suitable.

The price he gave was neither high nor low, and Zhou He had no objection. I only told him that he might be a little slower and that he wouldn't be able to catch up with the draft.

The other party said that he didn't need to rush the manuscript, and there were other translations under him. If she can't do something in a hurry, she will give her something that is not in a hurry.

At first, the cost of translation will be sent after the manuscript is delivered without problems, and when the number of cooperation increases in the future, it will be converted into a monthly settlement.

Zhou Hehe responded.

There are not many manuscripts given by the other party, sometimes one article a week, sometimes one article every half a month. It's hard to make ends meet, but it's still a job. Zhou Hecheng is doing it seriously.

Cheng Wei came back late at night, and Zhou He was still translating the manuscript at that time. Hear the sound of a car next door as well as the sound of talking.

She didn't pay attention at first, until the light from the opposite yard came through. She was stunned, got up and opened the window to look.

At this moment, the car next door had already driven away. Only the lights in the courtyard are on. But the lights didn't stay on for long, and soon went out, only the lights in the room came through.

It was a little cold outside in the autumn rain, so Zhou He quickly closed the window, saw that it was late, did not continue to translate, and lay on the bed.

After the operation, she was particularly afraid of cold. In this weather, she has used an electric blanket, and the quilt is already warm. She couldn't sleep for a while, her mind was empty. I don't know how long it took before I fell asleep in a daze.

When he got up the next morning, Cheng Wei was already downstairs, and although he came back late last night, he seemed to be in good spirits. The aunt was putting things in the kitchen, and when she saw Zhou He, she said, "Mr. Cheng brought a lot of special products." ”

Cheng Wei didn't clean up his own much, and he still had a green beard on his face. Seeing Zhou He, he nodded and asked, "Are you feeling better?"

He really disappeared without a trace during this time, and even Lao Cao seemed to be busy and didn't come over.

Zhou He's movement is much easier, and the doctor said that it will not be long before he will recover the same as before. Then she will be able to go out to work.

She nodded, and said much better.

The breakfast that Auntie had prepared was already on the table, and she knew that he must have not eaten breakfast when he came, so she asked him to eat breakfast together.

Cheng Wei sat down.

Although the two hadn't seen each other for a while, they couldn't find anything to say for a while. Zhou He has been immersed in eating.

Cheng Wei didn't stay long this time, as if he had specially sent something over, and left after breakfast. Didn't come back in the evening either.

Just a few days later, at noon that day, Zhou He was taking a nap upstairs when the doorbell rang. Auntie didn't know what she was doing, and she didn't go out for a long time. And the doorbell kept ringing, and Zhou He had to get up, intending to go and see who it was.

Before she could go downstairs, she heard her aunt open the door and go out. She didn't plan to go down, but she had already gone down the stairs, and she wanted to see who kept pressing it, so she went downstairs.

The people outside didn't know if they didn't know each other or what, but the aunt didn't open the door. She faintly heard voices outside in the room.

She was about to walk out when she saw her aunt walking back quickly. The people outside seemed to have left.

Zhou He then asked, "Who is here?"

Auntie's face was not good-looking, and when she got closer, she whispered: "Someone asked me just now, does Mr. Cheng live here?"

Zhou Yiyi was stunned, and the aunt said again: "I told him that there is no gentleman surnamed Cheng here." ”

Zhou He came back to his senses and asked, "What does that person look like?"

"Tall and thin, with dyed yellow hair, and bony eyes, you can tell at a glance that he is not a good person. Auntie was a little nervous when she said it. After speaking, he said, "Do you want to call Mr. Cheng to say something?"

At this time, it is sensitive, and when I find this side, I don't know what I am trying.

But he didn't mention Cheng Wei's name, and he didn't know if it was just a misunderstanding. It was obviously inappropriate to call Cheng Wei for such a small matter, Zhou He thought for a moment and said, "I'll tell him when he comes back." ”

The aunt responded with a good hello, and said in a chattering voice: "Miss Zhou, if someone rings the doorbell in the future, don't open the door when you go out, and then open it after asking clearly." ”

The man's eyes refused to leave, and if he had opened the door, he might have broken in.

Zhou He smiled slightly and nodded.

She was preoccupied, and after her aunt entered the house, she went to the kitchen to be busy. She was going to sleep, but she didn't sleep anymore, and she was in a daze downstairs.

Cheng Wei didn't come back for a few days, but he came back this evening. At that time, my aunt was still preparing dinner, and when she saw the lights on in the house next door, she asked, "Miss Zhou, Mr. Cheng seems to be back, do you want to call him over for dinner?"

She was more nervous than Zhou He about the person coming.

Zhou He is now okay. The aunt wiped her hand on the apron hill and said, "Then I'll call it." ”

She came back not long after she went, and Cheng Wei took a shower and changed her clothes a little later.

The aunt had already told him about the yellow hair coming at noon, and when she sat down, he said, "If a stranger comes to come in the future, don't open the door, call me immediately." ”

After a slight pause, he continued: "I will call a few people over, and in the future I will live in the courtyard next door, and if you go out, let them follow you." ”

His attention made Zhou He's heart heavy, she looked up at him and asked, "Is it the person who came over there today?"

Cheng Wei pondered for a moment and said, "It's not certain yet. I'm asking people to check. "Although we can't be sure, we can't take it lightly. He used to think that this was his territory, and the people on the other side didn't dare to mess around easily. But today my aunt told me that someone came to ask him, and he was sweating in a short period of time.

He took it so lightly, if something really happened today, he probably wouldn't be able to forgive himself in his life. Only by letting people stay here can he feel more at ease.

Although I can't be sure if the person is from over there, no one will come to ask for no reason, most of them will come to inquire.

Zhou He nodded. Cheng Wei wanted to touch the cigarette and smoke it, but his hand touched the cigarette case and took it back. He didn't know what he was thinking, and both of them were silent. It wasn't until the aunt asked me to eat that the two sat down at the table.

probably felt that the atmosphere was too dull, and during the meal, Cheng Wei found a topic and asked about Zhou He's daily life during this time. The atmosphere was a little more relaxed.

But he was still preoccupied, and after eating, he sat in the living room for a long time, letting Zhou He go to bed early, and then got up to leave.

Back in the courtyard, someone was already waiting for him. When he entered the room, he asked, "Is the surveillance turned on?"

You can't find anyone based on what the aunt described. Fortunately, in order to prevent anything from happening before, he installed a monitor at the door of Zhouhe, which came in handy.

"It's here, take a look. The person said, took out the computer, and put up the monitor. The man at the door of Zhouhe was not good-looking, and he probably couldn't remember it if he threw it into the pile. But it really doesn't look like a good person.

Cheng Wei took out a cigarette and smoked it, until he finished watching a piece of surveillance, and then asked, "Have you found out who he is?"

"I haven't found it yet, but Ali said they had seen him at the casino. It shouldn't take long to find out. Luo Wen replied.

Cheng Wei nodded, dusted off the ashes in his hand, and said, "Call a few people here, if Miss Zhou goes out, be sure to let them follow." ”

Luo Wen answered, and asked in a deep voice: "Mr. Cheng, have those minions of Old Dog Wei already come?"

Yucheng is the only place they control now. If Wei Laogou's minions really came here, it would obviously be action.

Cheng Wei was silent and didn't speak, and after a while, he said lightly: "It's only a matter of time before he comes." I'm afraid he won't come. ”

Wei Renyi has been arrogant and domineering all these years, and it is only a matter of time before he comes. As long as he dares to come here, he can make it impossible for him to go back.

He is different from Li Peiyuan, his identity is there, and he has too many scruples. He is different, he has been wandering in the gray area all these years, and there are ways to make people disappear quietly.

Luo Wen nodded and said, "I will let people pay more attention to whether there are any strange and suspicious people recently." ”

Cheng Wei simply responded well, smoked for a while, and then said: "Let people install surveillance at the entrance and end of the alley, and pay attention to strange vehicles and people coming and going here at any time." ”

The population movement here is not very large, and it is not difficult to monitor.

Luo Wen respectfully agreed, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Miss Zhou's yard, do you still need to install monitoring?"

Cheng Wei snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand and said, "I'll tell her." ”

That's all it takes to get loaded.

Luo Wen agreed, and quickly retreated.

The furnishings of the room here are extremely simple, Cheng Wei sat down on the gray sofa, and his hands were propped up at the center of his eyebrows for a long time without moving. I don't know what I'm thinking.

Then he sat for more than ten minutes before he opened his eyes. He took out another cigarette and lit it, then took out his phone and dialed a number.

The people over there didn't know if they had rested or what, and they didn't answer the phone for a long time. Cheng Wei hung up the phone, and after a few minutes, the phone was dialed again.

He picked it up, and the person over there called Mr. Cheng respectfully and asked, "It wasn't convenient just now, what do you have to say?"

Cheng Wei spit out a puff of smoke and said lightly: "You have to be more careful in the future, I don't want anything to happen." ”
