The strength of strangling his hand is getting bigger and bigger, the man rolls his eyes and the feeling of suffocation swells in his chest, he can't send it in one breath, and he will suffocate to death after a few more seconds, the man wants to break the other party's hand hard, but no matter how hard he tries, he just can't break it.

"No...... Wait......" The man wanted to say something, but Xia Yan didn't want to hear it anymore.

Gu Qiqi sat in the car and watched from a distance for a long time, and when she saw Xia Yan's face was ugly, she felt strange why that person was following her, so she couldn't help but get out of the car to look, and when she came to Xia Yan's side, she heard the other party being strangled and trembling and saying that she was on Lu Shen's orders. He was sent by Lu Shen to protect her.

Since it was the man who sent it to protect her. Gu Qiqi was quite surprised, not because he was surprised by this man's purpose, but because he didn't expect Lu Shen to still care about his own safety and send someone to protect him. Recalling that cold and indifferent face in his mind, Gu Qiqi had a warm emotion slowly pouring out.

"Shut him up!" Xia Yan, who was standing with his back to Gu Qiqi, didn't know that Gu Qiqi was behind him, and the chill in his words made the bodyguard unable to stop his face, and he no longer hesitated to end this person's life.

His voice Gu Qiqi heard it clearly at the moment, how could he not understand the special meaning of his words, the cold voice sounded in his ears, Gu Qiqi looked at Xia Yan's back, and seemed to be able to imagine what kind of mentality he was in at this moment. Why do you treat this person like this, Gu Qiqi didn't understand, that person's face was already blue, and he would die immediately if he delayed time, so she hurriedly went up to stop it: "Wait." Xia Yan, who is this person? ”

When the bodyguard saw that someone stopped him, his hands subconsciously relaxed, and the man who got the gasp coughed violently, and when he saw that both of them were looking at Gu Qiqi, he replied: "Miss Gu, I was sent by Mr. Lu Shen, I have no malice but just orders, don't misunderstand."

Gu Qiqi nodded at the man, turned to Xia Yan, who had a complicated expression, and explained to the man: "He said that he was sent by Lu Shen, so don't embarrass him."

Xia Yan laughed, and his voice was calm: "I thought he had bad intentions, I was afraid of hurting you." Besides, how sure is it that what he said is true? ”

Still as gentle as before, Gu Qiqi recalled that Xia Yan who spoke just now didn't seem to be the same person, she pursed her lips slightly, looked at the man on the ground, and helped him with her own thoughts: "This is not country Z, no matter how big Lu Shen's power is, he will not come to harm me." Besides, I live in the UK and don't offend anyone, this person probably doesn't tell a lie again, Xia Yan, don't embarrass him. ”

Gu Qiqi helped him speak again and again, if Xia Yan thought about moving the other party again, I was afraid that Gu Qiqi would be disgusted, but if this person was allowed to continue to stay by his side, their actions would be restricted, and once Lu Shen found out that he was wrong, the situation would be known by Lu Shen, but Xia Yan, who had no choice but to give up his plan to kill him, let go of that person.

"Okay." Xia Yan agreed with a cold face.

It wasn't until he got in the car and watched the man drive farther and farther away that Xia Yan's face slowly improved, and Gu Qiqi, who had been silent, looked at his gradually recovering face, and hesitated before he said out loud: "Xia Yan, you don't seem to be the same today."

"Nope." Xia Yan also realized that he was out of shape, and raised his eyebrows slightly and whispered: "Feifei, you don't know many things, so I must protect you." Can't let you get hurt. ”

"What's the matter?" Gu Qiqi was strange.

"Nothing. You just have to remember that I am really protecting you and don't doubt me. Xia Yan's voice was steady, but there was a kind of heavy emotion mixed in it.

Such a voice made people's hearts inexplicably heavy, Gu Qiqi was stunned, when he looked at his side face, Xia Yan had already tilted his head slightly to look at the scenery on the side of the street, silence was invisible around the two of them, Gu Qiqi wanted to speak several times, but the deep loneliness on Xia Yan's face made her stunned, he had never shown such a look, just like his heart that always wanted to speak and buried many secrets, she had never seen through it.

I didn't say anything all the way, and when I got home, I just had dinner ready, and asked Xia Yan to take Gu Qiqi to eat together. Xia Yan regained his warm appearance, and asked embarrassedly, "Are you willing to go to Bode's house for dinner?" Although we were very unhappy just now, Feifei, you wouldn't mind, would you? ”

Gu Qiqi sighed silently, she couldn't bear to disappoint Xia Yan of Qi Yi, even if she was unhappy, she didn't want to hurt others, and nodded silently. Xia Yan saw her depressed mood, thinking that what she did today might affect Gu Qiqi's mentality, making her feel gloomy, Xia Yan was afraid that it would stimulate her illness, so she spoke softly: "Actually, you are very similar to my lover before, she is as kind and beautiful as you, but you are too simple to be deceived, and in the end you are deeply trapped and can't extricate yourself."

He described her and her past to the current Gu Qiqi in general, he didn't expect Gu Qiqi to remember, but he hoped that she could understand his mind, he never thought of hurting her from beginning to end, he was even willing to give up everything to protect her, how could he hurt her?

Gently holding Gu Qiqi's hand, Xia Yan solemnly stared at the eyes of the woman opposite, making her believe in her thoughts at the moment, he wanted to dispel Gu Qiqi's suspicions. With his mind turning, Xia Yan continued: "At that time, we had each other and could not be separated. But because of the cruelty of others, they were separated alive. Fei Fei, can you understand this pain? ”

"I ......" Gu Qiqi couldn't answer, but she could understand Xia Yan's thoughts, she had also felt heartbroken for someone, and now that Xia Yan said this, she immediately understood, and immediately shook Xia Yan's hand and nodded: "I'm sorry, I don't understand you very much, I didn't expect you to be so painful."

Shaking his head with a light smile, Xia Yan blinked and said, "Now that we understand, let's go to Bode's house and have a good meal together."

The words of relief finally made Gu Qiqi feel a lot better, they had dinner together in the evening, everyone was very happy, Xia Yan personally sent Gu Qiqi back to his residence, and saw Gu Qiqi's figure gradually disappear at the entrance of the building, the warmth on Xia Yan's face gradually became cold, he slowly turned around and walked out of the house, came to the garage and opened the car door and sat down, looked sharply, looked out of the car window for a few minutes, and then silently stepped on the accelerator and drove onto the lane.

It was only dark at night, and the brightly lit night market had just begun, and people were talking about it on the streets. A man hurried to a hidden corner of the street, he took out his mobile phone as if to make a call, and when he raised it to his ear, he did not rush to dial the number, but looked left and right, and found that no one around was suspicious before sliding it on the phone.

After selecting a number, he dialed it, and it was not the location of the area he was in at the moment, but the signal code from another country. There was a beep inside for a while, and there was a sound of being connected. Hearing that the phone was connected, the man's face became more serious, and he deliberately cleared his throat before speaking: "Report, I may have been discovered." What now? ”

"What? How was it discovered? What do you do? The voice on the phone was exasperated, as if blaming his men for their stupid mistakes.

"I'm sorry. It was my mistake, and I may have been careless. I didn't expect the other party to be so alert and suddenly find out about my existence. I'll leave it to the boss! The man also knew his dereliction of duty, and lowered his head in shame and said in a deep voice.

"Forget it. You come back for a shift change first! The other party hung up the phone. After the man understood the above meaning, he put away his mobile phone, wrapped his clothes tightly before he lowered his head and took a step to walk towards the car parked on the side of the street, walked a few steps, a dark wind hit behind him, the man subconsciously looked back, his neck hurt heavily, and his eyes suddenly became dark.

"Jingle bell—"

The crisp bell vibrated in the dim light, and the man in the main seat had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and the warm eyes of the past did not fall into the eyes, they were chaotic black, and his lips were gently pursed to outline a cold arc.

His eyes attracted attention because of the mobile phone, he moved his gaze from the night outside the car window to the mobile phone, glanced at the number on the mobile phone, he stretched out his hand to pick it up, and gently pressed the answer button, the person inside was waiting for him to connect, and immediately said in a deep voice: "Mr. Xia, the person has been caught, how to deal with it?"

"Bring him here." After Xia Yan reported an address, he hung up the phone and turned the steering wheel to drive back to the car. He wants to listen to this person's affairs well, he can't be careless when dealing with Lu Shen, Xia Yan clearly understands the strength of the other party, he doesn't dare to lose now, he is afraid that he can't afford to lose.

The next morning, the sun was shining.

Gu Qiqi, who got up early, got up and opened the car window, and saw the car parked in the yard, and Gu Qiqi found that it was Xia Yan's car. She wondered how Xia Yan's car could have been parked in the yard and not in the garage. Feeling puzzled, Bode and his wife, who were jogging in the morning, came back together and said hello to Gu Qiqi.

Gu Qiqi smiled, her eyes rolled and she called out to Bode and his wife, then quickly ran down to them, pointed to the car in the yard and asked, "Is this Xia Yan's car?"

"Yes. Theoretically, we borrowed the car that Xia Yan used. Mr. and Mrs. Bode replied.

"Then why don't you park the garage?"

Mrs. Bode thought about it recallingly: "It seems that Xia Yan went out last night and came back very late, maybe he was too tired to stop here!"

"Oh. Really? Thank you. After Gu Qiqi thanked him politely, the couple nodded and returned to the house. But Gu Qiqi still felt uneasy, she stared at Xia Yan's car for a long time, and suddenly remembered the plainclothes man yesterday, and couldn't help but wonder what the other party's situation was now.

"Morning!" Xia Yan walked out in a sportswear and saw a warm temperature in Gu Qiqi's eyes. Walking to Gu Qiqi's side in a few steps, seeing that she had been not paying attention to her car, she asked strangely, "What?" Is there something wrong with the car? ”
