Because he was treated by Lin Jia's parents as their daughter's boyfriend all night, although his heart was a little awkward, but relying on his thick skin, Wu Ming still coped with it more naturally.

With Old Man Jiang here, of course, there is no need for Wu Ming to report his home. And Old Man Jiang's eyes when he looked at Wu Ming all night were different from usual. seems to be looking forward to Wu Ming being like Lin Jia, calling him "Uncle Jiang" one by one.

"Taste how this sea bass is made. Lin Jia's mother was the most enthusiastic, and from time to time she would pick up vegetables for Wu Ming's brothers and sisters.

"It's delicious, Auntie. ”

"Thank you, Auntie, I'll come by myself. ”

On the contrary, Lin Jia was much more restrained, and at most she whispered a few words to Wu Xin. Most of the time, he was pouring tea and water for Old Man Jiang and his father. Because Wu Ming was injured, he was not suitable for drinking, and he didn't like to drink tea very much, so Wu Xin kept refilling the cup in front of him with boiled water.

"This is Sister Lin Jia's craft. ”

"Really?" Hearing his sister's words, Wu Ming turned his head to look at Lin Jia, whose cheeks were slightly red, and said, "I can't think of Lin ...... You'll also be able to cook. ”

I originally wanted to say "Forest Bureau", but I changed my mouth when the words came to my lips. On this occasion, it is really not appropriate to call it that. Otherwise, it is very likely to hurt the hearts of Lin Jia's parents, especially the mother who hopes that their thirty-two-year-old daughter will find a home as soon as possible.

"I've just learned to do it, and my level is average. ”

"Well, it's already good. Better than I did. Wu Ming, who said something against his will, subconsciously went to look at his sister Wu Xin, and saw that the other party was stretching out his thumb to him from under the table, and couldn't help blurting out again: "I thought you only knew work." ”

"What are you talking about?" Old man Jiang was not happy when he heard Wu Ming's words. "You mean that no one in the bureau understands life except for you?"

"You know what,......?

Wu Ming and the somewhat annoying old man Jiang are never polite, but considering the current occasion, they still made an exception to omit the word "old man" at the back.

"Hehe, as soon as I heard it, I knew that I hadn't eaten your Uncle Jiang's cooking. Lin Jia's father took Wu Ming's words and explained: "That level is not something that ordinary people can achieve, especially the good cooking of Wuxi cuisine, even the chefs of several restaurants near us can't compare." ”

When Wu Ming heard this, he raised his head and carefully looked at the old man Jiang who was facing him with surprised eyes, as if he had never known him. Even her sister Wu Xin, who was in a good mood, couldn't help laughing.

"What do you see?" Old man Jiang would not be polite to Wu Ming, the only thorn in his men. "You're not good enough to eat my food. ”

simply threw Old Man Jiang a "who is rare" look, and continued to bow his head and eat the steamed sea bass made by Lin Jia.

However, in order to save some face for his brother, Wu Xin said to Old Man Jiang with a smile: "Uncle Jiang, my brother's skills are also very good." ”

"I know. Old man Jiang took a sip of the teacup, different from talking to Wu Ming, but said to Wu Xin very amiably: "Unless you don't care, your brother will do everything in a good way." ”

Wu Ming, who was rarely praised by Old Man Jiang once, didn't even raise his head, looking attracted by the taste of sea bass made by Lin Jia, and kept eating a few bites of chopsticks one after another.

After spending the warm Mid-Autumn Festival at Lin Jia's house, Wu Ming, who had planned to stay in the blood hospital to accompany his sister Wu Xin under the pretext of recuperating from his injuries, had to send Wu Xin back to the ward under the silent gaze of Old Man Jiang, and returned to Jiangjun City overnight in Lin Jia's car.

After all, his position is in Jiangjun City, and his responsibility is to secretly assist the Jiangjun City National Security Bureau and protect the security of the country's advanced stealth technology in military equipment mastered by the Four-Dimensional Research Institute. Of course, there is also an order temporarily added by Old Man Jiang - responsible for the personal safety of Zhong Caini, a national treasure-level turtle double doctor.

Along the way, the atmosphere in the car seemed a little awkward. Lin Jia, who understands the intention of Old Man Jiang to bring Wu Ming's brothers and sisters to his home for the Mid-Autumn Festival, although she is four years older than Wu Ming, as a girl, due to her natural reserve and shyness in the face of personal feelings, it is still difficult for her to find a topic for a while.

Therefore, most of the time, Wu Ming had nothing to say in order to break the silence between the two, and said something unrelated to work one by one.

Originally, it took six hours to travel during the day, but it was already four o'clock in the morning when Lin Jia drove off the G333 highway and entered the general city.

"The weather is getting colder, so you should pay attention to keeping the wound warm, otherwise it will affect the speed of healing. ”

"Thanks, I'll take note. ”

It wasn't until Wu Ming was sent to the door of the community where he lived that Lin Jia instructed with a little concern.

It's been two days since she came back in a blink of an eye, and Zhong Caini has also gone to work at the Four-Dimensional Research Institute on the 7th. Although she quietly appeared on Zhong Caini's way to work in the morning, she watched her, accompanied by two bodyguards, walk into the small building in front of the military sub-district before returning to her residence. But from time to time, looking at the text message "Happy Mid-Autumn Festival" sent to him by Caini at eight o'clock in the evening of the fifteenth, Wu Ming was always unsure whether to call the other party back.

That night, Zhong Caini just called her sister Wu Xin, and asked with great concern how Wu Xin was recovering, how her health was recently, etc., but she didn't mention herself at all. Wu Ming knew very well that Zhong Caini must know that she was next to Wu Xin. What he didn't know was that he and his sister Wu Xin were spending the Mid-Autumn Festival at Lin Jia's house at the time.

Faced with Zhong Caini's smart performance, Wu Ming was really a little embarrassed. Zhong Caini's thoughts about herself, Wu Ming is not wood, where can she not see it? It's just that her work is too special, and it is easy to bring danger to her relatives and friends around her. Moreover, the attitude of Zhong Caini's parents also made Wu Ming not want to go further with Zhong Caini.

By the way, did Robert come as promised? Thinking of this, Wu Ming finally decisively dialed Zhong Caini's phone.

"Wu Ming. ”

The phone was connected, and Zhong Caini on the other end just called her name softly and there was no follow-up. It's not that he can't hear a trace of trilling in the other party's tone, but Wu Ming just asked without knowing anything: "Are you at work?"

"Well, just arrived at the unit. ”

"How is the Mid-Autumn Festival?" I didn't want to ask about this topic, but Wu Ming didn't know why he didn't control his mouth.

"It's not good....... Are you back?"

"Oh, it's back. ”

"Robert didn't come. ”

Like the roundworm in Wu Ming's stomach, Zhong Caini said Wu Ming's thoughts in one sentence, and suddenly made him unprecedentedly unsure of what to say. Although he wanted to make a joke, the trills in Zhong Caini's tone made Wu Ming dare not make a mistake. can guess that if he deliberately shows that he has no heart and lungs, he will definitely not be able to hide the smart Zhong Caini.

"Could it have something to do with Yang Yuting's accident?"

"I think so. After all, it's all reported in the news. ”

Just when Wu Ming wanted to find an excuse to hang up the phone, Zhong Caini preemptively said in a very firm tone: "We will get off work here at twelve o'clock at noon, and I will wait for you in front of the research institute at that time." ”

Holding the phone that had been hung up by Zhong Caini for a while, she was stunned for a while, and then lay down on the sofa, I don't know if it was because of the pain of the wound or some other reason, she frowned lightly unconsciously.
