Chapter Eighty-Nine: Counting the Enemy

After Jiang Cheng left, although there were still three people in the living room, they fell into an eerie silence.

"That...... Xiao Geyan ...... "Qiao Guang scratched his ears and cheeks, as if it was more uncomfortable than an ant on a hot pot, he wanted to say something to break this silence and embarrassment, but he was afraid that he would say the wrong thing without a head, not only could he not adjust the atmosphere, but it would be self-defeating if he didn't do it well, so he had to turn to Xiao Geyan for help."

Xiao Geyan's eyes fell on Bai Xue's body, looking at her standing there with a pale face, biting her lower lip slightly, her two hands clenched into fists at her sides, her whole body was tense, she was silent for a moment, and sighed softly.

"I'm going to cook, what's the matter, we'll talk about it after eating. He said to Bai Xue and Qiao Guang, and after finishing speaking, he turned around and walked into the kitchen, as if he had the same rhythm of life as usual, and opened the refrigerator to select ingredients.

"At this time...... Who still has the heart to think about eating......" Qiao Guang muttered, although he was a little confused about Xiao Geyan's attitude, but he didn't say anything, scratched the back of his head, rolled his eyes, and finally decided not to give Xiao Geyan a hand, just let him eat by himself, and he stayed with Bai Xue.

The so-called accompanying Bai Xue is really just accompaniing, Qiao Guang doesn't know what to say to Bai Xue, Bai Xue is also a little unable to lift her spirits to talk to Qiao Guang, the two of them just sit on the sofa one by one, Bai Xue is responsible for being in a daze, Qiao Guang is responsible for secretly looking at her on the side, as if a cat is observing movement.

Qiao Guang may be a genius in trace science, but in his daily life, he really can't talk about a person with high emotional intelligence, even if he wants to secretly observe Bai Xue's reaction, there is no way to do it without traces, it is simply a blatant snooping, and obviously out of good intentions, he can actually look sneaky, coupled with the tall and big figure, the combination of these effects is a bit miserable, if it is the kind of heart that is placed on weekdays, Bai Xue feels that he will not be able to help laughing。

It's a pity that she really doesn't have that mood now, so she just keeps silent.

Of course, Xiao Geyan didn't have the heart to make too complicated food, he just cooked a little noodles and made three bowls of simple lo mein, fortunately, the level was good, so it smelled fragrant, which made people's appetite move.

"Let's eat. He brought out three bowls of noodles and put them on the dining table, greeting Qiao Guang and Bai Xue.

Qiao Guang was still muttering in his heart, thinking that who would want to eat at this juncture. As a result, as soon as Xiao Geyan's lo noodles were ready, his stomach immediately rumbled and responded positively.

"Bai Xue, let's eat some food first! People are iron, rice is steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you'll be hungry!" he said to Bai Xue.

Bai Xue nodded, and sat down at the table together, she actually didn't have any appetite, and even felt that her stomach was twitching vigorously, and the taste was not good at all, but she also knew very well that if she said that she had no appetite at this time and refused to sit down and eat together, Xiao Geyan and Qiao Guang would definitely not eat well, she didn't want everyone to be affected by herself, so she sat down at the table, holding chopsticks in her hand, and playing with the marinade on the noodles without a match, and she didn't pick up a noodle for a long time.

"Bai Xue, I know you don't have an appetite right now," Xiao Geyan's reaction to her was not particularly surprised, "But no matter who the side that wants to harm people is, if you collapse, it is equivalent to becoming an accomplice of the other party." I can understand how you feel now, but at this time, you have to make yourself stronger, after all, there are some things that we can accompany you, but the person who needs to face and solve it can only be yourself. ”

Bai Xue understood his words, so she suppressed the convulsions in her stomach and ate the noodles in a big gulp. Xiao Geyan also ate silently without saying a word. Neither of them spoke, Qiao Guang couldn't talk to himself, and he wasn't so interested at the moment, so this meal was unprecedentedly quiet.

After eating, Bai Xue didn't help wash the dishes as usual, she originally expressed this, hoping that she could work hard to cheer up like usual, but Xiao Geyan refused.

"Sit down, let's talk. Xiao Geyan pulled her from the kitchen to the living room, let her sit down, and pulled a chair to sit opposite her, the distance between the two was not far, he leaned down, his elbows were on his knees, and his upper body leaned forward slightly, so that his line of sight was level with Bai Xue's line of sight.

Xiao Geyan had never been a sharp-hearted person, but now his tone and expression were unprecedentedly gentle, as if he were treating a delicate and fragile work of art.

Bai Xue could naturally clearly feel the care from Xiao Geyan, she felt a little warm in her heart, and there was an indescribable feeling, as if she had been supported and stood up from the side after running for a long distance and exhausting all her strength. It was as if he was walking on a dark and silent night road, and his heart was full of anxiety and fear, when a little light suddenly appeared in front of him, and he found that his most trusted person was waiting for him there with a flashlight.

In short, it was as if she no longer had to face everything alone.

This feeling is also unprecedented for Bai Xue, when her father was still alive, she never experienced any major setbacks, and after her father died, she must also remain strong and optimistic, not only can not increase the burden on her mother, but also work hard to share it for her mother.

At this moment, looking at Xiao Geyan's eyes, Bai Xue felt as if as long as he was there, he had nothing to be afraid of and fear, and he felt a lot more at ease without warning.

"I hope you can think carefully about whether there has been a person who has made a grudge against you because of your investigation work since you started your internship. Xiao Geyan saw Bai Xue nodding to himself, and then asked.

Bai Xue shook her head almost without thinking too carefully: "It shouldn't be not, I haven't been working for a long time, so far, I haven't had the opportunity to be on my own, if it weren't for you being with me, I guess I would still play the role of running errands and doing chores." So I think it's important to have my previous job...... It's not enough to make people have such a big enmity with me. ”

"What about your father?" Xiao Geyan was silent for a moment, seemingly a little entangled, but still chose to ask, "Does he have any old grudges left?"
