"Wu Ming, do you have something to do today?"

Just after half past seven in the morning, before he went out, he received a call from Zhong Caini, and Wu Ming replied without hesitation: "Yes." ”

"When will it be done?"

"I guess it's going to be eight or nine o'clock in the evening. ”

Wu Ming had already thought that he could not continue to develop with Zhong Caini for the time being. One is her parents' attitude towards herself, and the other is because of the nature of her work. Needless to say, the former is not the most critical, and the latter is the reason why Wu Ming has the most scruples in his heart.

Zhong Caini, who was originally a national treasure-level returned double doctor, was a thorn in the side of some overseas organizations, and if she was in danger because of herself, it was hard to say that she would not hurt her. What's more, protecting Zhong Caini's personal safety is one of Wu Ming's responsibilities. If not only did he not protect her at that time, but because he put Zhong Caini in danger, how would he explain to Old Man Jiang

also can't explain to Zhong Rui and his wife, who are already opposed to their relationship with Zhong Caini.

The most sorry thing is, of course, Wu Ming's own conscience. It is bound to make him feel guilty for the rest of his life.

"Oh. Otherwise, I'll wait for you downstairs at nine o'clock. ”

…… Wu Ming almost wanted to slap himself with remorse when he heard this, why didn't he say it later, for example, eleven o'clock, twelve o'clock? It was decided that Zhong Caini's parents would not let her go out at night because of her personal safety, so Wu Ming said eight or nine o'clock. The result was completely unexpected.

"It's so late, what's there that can't wait until tomorrow?"

didn't care about the impatience in Wu Ming's tone at all, he had already felt that Wu Ming was deliberately avoiding his Zhong Caini, and he had already thought of his words in advance. The reason why he didn't ask Wu Ming what time he was free today was because he expected that Wu Ming would immediately ask "What's the matter with you?" Therefore, Zhong Caini, who has roughly mastered the rules of Wu Ming's speech, is equivalent to digging a pit in accordance with Wu Ming's habits in advance, so that Wu Ming can have time to say what time he has.

Even if he said that he would only have time at eleven or twelve o'clock, as Wu Ming regretted, Zhong Caini would still wait for him downstairs.

"No, you can't. Because there is only one such day a year. ”

As soon as he heard it, he understood, and Wu Ming, who reacted, immediately asked suspiciously: "Isn't your birthday November 6th?"

"It was the Gregorian calendar, and I always had a lunar birthday. ”

I was fooled, although I have already understood, but it is too late for anything. Zhong Caini's words are all on this, how can she change her words?

"Oh, that's right. Wu Ming could guess that the corners of Zhong Caini's good-looking lips must have curled up slightly proudly. "Why don't I rearrange the daytime and celebrate your birthday in the afternoon?"

"I'm afraid it won't work in the afternoon, the unit still has to go to work. ”

Wu Ming said in his heart, if I am asked to go to your house, I will say nothing. However, before he could speak again, Zhong Caini on the other end of the phone had already said with a smile: "Let's go at night, can we just find a place for the two of us?"

Although it sounds a little ambiguous, Wu Ming can still accept Zhong Caini's arrangement. So he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it." I'll pick you up at the door of the unit when I get off work. ”

"Well, I'll wait for you. ”

Is it satisfaction, is it happiness? Wu Ming heard a different meaning from Zhong Caini's last sentence. It's just that he's not quite sure. At the same time, Wu Ming felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart for no reason. It is indeed a sense of achievement, a sense of accomplishment that Wu Ming himself cannot describe.

Is this what it feels like to be in love?

Startled by this question that suddenly popped up in his mind, Wu Ming shook his head vigorously, as if he wanted to throw the question out of his mind. immediately stood up, just about to go to the must-go every day, Zhong Caini secretly escorted her to work on the way to work, but the mobile phone rang again. Looking down, it was his sister Wu Xin calling, and Wu Ming hurriedly pressed the answer button.

"Brother. ”

With just one sound, a smile crawled all over Wu Ming's face: "Is there good news?"

"My brother is so smart. ”

"Tell me quickly. ”

"As soon as I got to work this morning, the doctor had to consult on my condition and finally decide whether I would be allowed to leave the hospital. Wu Xin on the phone said excitedly: "Brother, is this good news?"

"Of course it's good news, and it's the biggest good news in the world. Hearing Wu Xin's happy laughter like a silver bell on the phone, Wu Ming then instructed: "Once the doctor's consultation has a result, remember to call me as soon as possible." ”

"Well, I will. Brother, go get busy, my cousin is here. ”

"Okay, eat more. ”

I hung up the phone and went downstairs, and before I walked out of the gate of the community, I heard a magpie cry from the courtyard wall on the east side and a big poplar tree. Stopped, half-turned around and looked up for a while Standing on the sparsely foliage branches, head facing south and tail facing north, two flower magpies chirping non-stop, Wu Ming muttered softly: "Double happiness is coming?"

"Is the injury better?"

Xun Sheng turned his face and saw Wu Ming, a community security guard who was about the same age as himself, who had already returned to normal, and said with a faint smile on his face: "Thank you, it's much better." ”

"Going out?"

"yes, go out for a walk. ”

Nodding, he didn't take two steps away when he heard the security guard behind him whisper to himself: "There is only this pair of magpies left in the entire community." ”

What do you mean, am I the lord who likes to steal magpies?

Just asked with disdain in his heart, Wu Ming left without looking back.

didn't lie to Zhong Caini, Wu Ming did have something, and he had something every day. It's just that what he wants to do can't be made public. In order to hide his true identity, he also had to fight actively or passively from time to time. Because Wu Ming, who never suffered losses, could always find witnesses for legitimate defense, over time, he became known as the "evil god" in Jiangjun City. As a result, the police, including the security guards, especially those large and small thugs who roam the streets all day long, are even more rare who do not know him.

After secretly escorting Zhong Caini to work as usual today, remembering the trouble caused in the waiting room of the train station last time, Wu Ming walked into the station police station. Because on the way back, I had learned from Lin Jia that she had not paid the medical bills for the beaten thief.

"Yo, Evil God Boss, welcome, welcome. ”

"Hehe, I know that Comrade Wu Ming is a believer. ”

The two policemen who appeared in the waiting room at that time saw Wu Ming, although there was some banter in their tone, but the smile on their faces was quite sincere.

"What's the situation?"

"It's okay. One of the policemen said: "Hehe, the evil god boss has always been measured, that kid just suffered a little flesh wound, so he doesn't need to pay for his medical expenses." ”

When he heard the words and was about to turn to leave, he saw another policeman come up and quietly ask, "Who are you from the Forest Bureau of the National Security Bureau?"

Wu Ming glanced at the other party with slanted eyes, and said three words lightly: "Girlfriend." ”

It wasn't until he walked out of the gate of the police station and came to the street outside that Wu Ming turned around and saw the other party standing there, staring at him like a visitor from outside the sky.
