"I'll go back to the office first."

With that, Dennis turned and walked in the direction of the elevator entrance.

"Hey, Dr. Dennis, it's off work!" The bodyguard reminded Dennis for the sake of drinks and snacks.

Dennis looked back and smiled, "I know. I'll go back to the office and pack my things. ”

After packing up his things and walking out of the office, Dennis happened to run into Song Jiqing and Ye Luo.

Song Jiqing and Ye Luo came out of the office holding hands, and the two were talking and laughing, as if they were a couple in love.

Although everyone in the hospital knew about their relationship, in front of his colleagues, Ye Luo still tried to avoid making some intimate moves with Song Jiqing.

Therefore, when he saw Dennis, Ye Luo subconsciously wanted to withdraw his hand.

Song Jiqing sensed Ye Luo's intentions, and grabbed Ye Luo's hand first, preventing her from breaking free.

In terms of strength, Ye Luo is certainly not Song Jiqing's opponent. When she found that her hand couldn't be withdrawn, she had no choice but to let Song Jiqing hold it, with a natural smile on her face.

“Dennis。”

Song Jiqing took the initiative to greet Dennis very enthusiastically, but for some reason, Ye Luo felt that he was showing off.

Hey, what is this guy showing off?

"Doctor Song," Dennis replied with a gentlemanly smile, looked at Song Jiqing and Ye Luo's hands together, and said without surprise, "You are indeed a happy couple." ”

Song Jiqing had a "of course" expression and pointed in the direction of the elevator: "We're off work." ”

"I'm getting ready to leave work, too."

The three of them walked into the elevator together.

The narrow space of the elevator car magnifies the inexplicable atmosphere between Song Jiqing and Dennis.

That kind of atmosphere, not embarrassment, on the contrary, Ye Luo felt that there was an indescribable spark in the air.

Ye Luo was thinking about what she could say to alleviate this atmosphere, when she heard a "ding" sound, and the elevator door slowly slid open in front of her eyes.

The invisible spark vanished as if it had been dispersed by the incoming air.

Dennis stepped out of the elevator and said naturally as if nothing had happened, "Doctor Song, Dr. Yip, goodbye." ”

Ye Luo returned with a smile: "See you tomorrow." ”

Song Jiqing just smiled faintly: "Goodbye." ”

Dennis walked out of the inpatient building on his long legs.

It wasn't until he couldn't see Dennis's back that Ye Luo complained about Song Jiqing: "Childish ghost!" ”

Song Jiqing frowned, hugged Ye Luo tightly and asked, "Where am I naïve?" ”

Ye Luo snorted: "Don't think I don't know what you were thinking just now!" As he spoke, he pinched Song Jiqing's arm, "You and Dennis are both Youning's doctors, and your purpose is to make Youning better." Since you have the same goal, what are you secretly competing with others? ”

"......" Song Jiqing's expression froze for a moment.

Ye Luo thought that he had said what Song Jiqing was thinking, but before he had time to be complacent, that casual smile returned to Song Jiqing's good-looking face.

"It's a man-to-man rivalry, it's normal." Song Jiqing touched Ye Luo's hair, "Don't make a fuss." ”

"......" Ye Luo could only say, "I don't understand you men." ”

Song Jiqing looked at Ye Luo meaningfully: "Good, it's good if you understand me." ”

Ye Luo was speechless for a while, then couldn't help laughing, and dragged Song Jiqing out: "Let's go, take me to eat something delicious." ”

Take your girlfriend to eat something delicious first, and go home at night to eat a delicious girlfriend -

This plan, it was just perfect.

"Okay."

Song Jiqing agreed almost without thinking, and walked towards the parking lot with Ye Luo.

On the other side, Dennis had already walked to the parking lot, found his car and drove out.

He applied for an international driver's license early, and when he came to City A, Mu Sijue had already helped him prepare his apartment and car.

He drove back to his apartment in the center of the city, less than a 10-minute drive from the hospital.

Back at the apartment, Dennis poured himself a glass of cold water, thought about it, walked to the balcony of the living room, and used a private mobile phone to dial a foreign number.

After a few long beeps, the international call was connected.

"How?"

A cold, hard, emotionless male voice came from the phone.

Dennis didn't answer, and said to himself, "I feel like I'm smitten by a woman." ”

......The person on the other end of the phone was silent for three seconds, and then asked a calm question, "You've only been there for a few days?" ”

"It's all right, two days." Dennis laughed and continued, "However, I was smitten by her, and it was only for a moment. ”

......The person on the other end of the phone was obviously speechless, and there was a touch of indignation in his tone, "That woman is a doctor in the hospital?!" ”

"It's not." Dennis ignored the other party's anger and denied it briskly.

"May I warn you—" the voice on the phone became solemn and cold, "I have struggled to get you through the investigation of Lord Mustelle. If you don't take advantage of this opportunity, once you are exposed, whether there is a chance is another matter, whether you can go back to Europe or not is a question! ”

The implication is that if the plan fails, Dennis' life is in danger.

Dennis asked disapprovingly, "Is Muss so powerful?" ”

There was another long silence, so long that Dennis almost thought the other had hung up, before he heard the other man say:

"Don't underestimate Lord Mus, and everyone around him."

This is less like a simple piece of counsel and more like a lesson learned firsthand.

Dennis laughed "sneering" and teased: "Is it because you underestimated Mu Sijue that you have fallen to this point in the first place?" ”

“Dennis！” The person on the other end of the line jerked in a slammed tone, clearly warning Dennis not to joke.

"Okay, okay." Dennis accepted it when he saw it, paused, and carefully spit out Su Jian'an's name, "Su Jian'an-do you know her?" ”

"Su, Jane, Ann?" The man repeated Su Jian'an's name word by word, and then let out a meaningful laugh, "You are just fascinated by this woman?" ”

"You know her?" Dennis's voice was noticeably more eager than it had just been.

"Yes, of course I know." The voice on the phone grew serious and tinged with a warning tone, "This woman is charming—I know." However, you can't be obsessed with her. Dennis, she's going to delay you a lot. Best of all, you can't get her. ”

“……”

Why—Dennis almost asked. But as soon as the words came to his lips, he automatically and spontaneously realized what a stupid question it was.

Because her husband is Lu Boyan - this reason is enough for all men in the world to retreat.

Dennis still didn't give up, and instead asked, "You don't think I have a chance?" ”

A sneer came to his ears, followed by a merciless denial: "Not at all!" Don't be delusional! ”

Dennis: Is it really good that "......" is so unkind?

"You should hurry up and get down to business." The man on the other end of the phone seemed to calm down and admonished, "No one around Mu Sijue is simple. Although you have passed the test in a fool's way, it doesn't mean that they won't be suspicious of you in the future. ”

"I know." Dennis's mind finally returned to business, and he said with some embarrassment, "But...... It's a bit tricky. ”

"How hard is it? Say! ”

"Mu Sijue is even more vigilant than we expected." Dennis had a headache and told the other party about Mu Sijue's protection mechanism against Xu Youning, "I have no way to approach Xu Youning alone. If I can't get close to Xu Youning alone, I won't have a chance to do it. Also, there is the best life monitor in Xu Youning's room, and once Xu Youning has any abnormalities, Song Jiqing will know immediately. ”

That's right, Dennis came to the hospital with Xu Youning as the target.

However, she didn't come to cure Xu Youning.

His purpose was to kill Xu Youning.

After another long silence, a voice came from the earpiece again: "I don't care how vigilant Mu Sijue is. Dennis, if you want to make Mu Sijue miserable, killing Xu Youning is the best way. If you can't attack Xu Youning, you won't have a chance to get close to Mu Sijue, then you can only live in resentment forever. ”

“…… I'll look at it. Dennis didn't want to go any further, "If there's any problem, we'll get back in touch." ”

With that, Dennis hung up the phone and drank the water from his glass, acting like a glass of spirits.

He didn't have any grudges with Xu Youning, he just wanted to make Mu Sijue painful, and wanted Mu Sijue to feel the pain of losing his relatives, so he hit Xu Youning's idea.

Of course, there is another important reason: he does not have the strength to deal with Mu Sijue. Xu Youning became a second-best choice.

As for why he hit Xu Youning's idea......

It was the man on the phone who told him that he wanted to make Mu Sijue feel real pain, so he killed his wife, who was in a deep coma, and this was the only way to make Mu Sijue taste the pain of loss.

But is this really the only way?

Couldn't he think of a better way?

Not necessarily.

Perhaps, when he was looking for an opportunity to kill Xu Youning, he could find other means to make Mu Sijue suffer.

Dennis returned to the living room with a glass of water, put his phone in a drawer, and retrieved Xu Youning's medical records from the computer to study it.

In any case, it is the most important thing to gain the trust of Mousjue.

If he couldn't get Mu Sijue to trust him like he trusted Song Jiqing, he wouldn't have any chance.

In that case, as the person on the phone said, in the future, he can only live in unwilling resentment......
