chapter066
Yu Chi was choked by Cheng Rao: "......"
Unexpectedly, the joke he had seen in the joke before was actually staged in his life, and it became Cheng Rao's line of rejecting him.
Wei Chi didn't speak for a long time, and after a silence, Wei Chi repeated his intentions to Cheng Rao very seriously: "You don't need to say it anymore, I won't let go if I decide it." β
Cheng Rao: "......"
Okay, then she won't talk about it.
It's really hard to talk to Wei Chi, he expresses himself too directly, and sometimes it's unbearable.
So, for the next hour or so, Cheng Rao never spoke to Yu Chi.
Cheng Rao picked up the "Common Sense of Nursing" at hand and began to read it.
This is her professional book when she was in college, and she often reads this respite when she is bored.
She's a very boring person, she doesn't have any hobbies in private, and she often doesn't know what to do when she's alone.
When Cheng Rao was reading, Wei Chi was watching her from the side.
The sun in Los Angeles is very good today, and her room happens to be a floor-to-ceiling window, and the sunlight shines in, plating a soft light on her body, and Wei Chi stares at her tightly.
Her skin is very good, white and pure, and even the fluff on her face can be seen in the sun, like a baby who has not grown up;
She wore a loose white T-shirt very casually, with a pair of khaki shorts underneath, very homely, but she looked very sexy when she wore it like this;
Her fingers pinched the slightly old book, their slender fingers rubbing against the paper as if out of nowhereβ
Wei Chi stared at it, and remembered the touch of her hand caressing his chest, and a burst of heat inevitably welled up in his throat.
Her eyes were focused on the book, and the whole person seemed to be outside this world, and Wei Chi was so fascinated that she couldn't take her eyes off it at all.
The speed of the air in the bedroom seemed to have slowed down a bit, and Yu Chi didn't have time to look anywhere else, and he was reluctant to blink, so he couldn't wait to keep staring at her.
The bedroom was quiet, so quiet that the sound of both of them breathing was very distinct, and in addition to that, the sound of her turning the pages of a book.
For a moment, Wei Chi felt that he and Cheng Rao were like an old husband and wife.
Cheng Rao occasionally has a change in his expression when he reads a book, frowning, or raising his hand to stroke his hair, all of which are unintentional actions, but they can make his heart ripple.
After enduring it for a long time, Yu Chi finally couldn't help it.
He moved towards Cheng Rao's side, raised his arm and hugged her.
This action came suddenly, Cheng Rao paused, and turned the book in her hand down.
She moved her lips and was about to open her mouth to question him when she was interrupted.
"The dumplings are ready, ready to eatβ"
The bedroom door was not closed, and the aunt came up to call them to eat.
Who knows, as soon as I got closer, I saw two people hugging each other like this, obviously frightened.
When Wei Chi came before, although she knew that he might be Cheng Rao's latest boyfriend, she never expected that the two of them would develop so quickly, so fast that she felt caught off guard.
After hearing his aunt's voice, Yu Chi immediately let go of Cheng Rao, and his ears were a little red.
In comparison, Cheng Rao was extremely calm, as if the person who was held just now was not her.
Cheng Rao got up from the bed, nodded to her aunt, and said, "Go down immediately." β
Auntie: "Okay, okay, then I'll go and make dumplings first, and you two can just come to the kitchen." β
After saying that, she hurried away.
People are young and affectionate, and she can't continue to be a light bulb.
After the aunt left, Cheng Rao glanced at Wei Chi, and was about to give him an eviction order, when she heard him say, "I like to eat dumplings." β
Cheng Rao: "......"
Suddenly I didn't want to talk to him.
Withdrawing his gaze indifferently, he turned around and went downstairs.
Although Cheng Rao didn't say anything, Wei Chi still followed her quickly.
He had long legs and walked fast, so it wasn't hard to catch up with her.
So, the two of them came to the restaurant together.
The aunt was very enthusiastic about Yu Chi, and she gave him dipping sauce and handed him chopsticks, Cheng Rao had a headache when she saw it.
She didn't say a word the whole time, took a sip of the juice at hand, and was ready to eat dumplings.
Yu Chi originally sat opposite Cheng Rao, and later sat directly next to Cheng Rao with his own plate.
After the nanny aunt saw Yu Chi doing this, she was amused: "The relationship between the little couple is so good!" β
"You can eat it too." Cheng Rao glanced at her aunt.
Auntie nodded and sat down across from the two of them.
After sitting down, she smiled and said to Yu Chi, "Try the dumplings and see how they taste." β
Yu Chi nodded, picked up a dumpling with chopsticks and took a bite.
The skin is thin and there is a lot of filling, and it is meat in one bite.
After eating a dumpling, Wei Chi praised: "It's delicious!" You're so good at it. β
He hadn't eaten dumplings for more than a year, and since the accident with Wei Zhi, he didn't go home, and when he wasn't on a mission, it was basically instant noodles with various flavors.
Suddenly eating handmade dumplings, I feel a lot more comfortable.
Auntie was naturally very happy to hear Wei Chi's praise, and her appreciation for him was a little stronger.
Cheng Rao didn't speak next to her, picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the dumplings.
She hadn't eaten meat for too long, but she actually loved dumplings before.
After biting into such a bite, it feels like it's been a long time.
Yu Chi also remembered that she didn't eat meat after seeing Cheng Rao move her chopsticks. He took a look, and Cheng Rao's dumplings were indeed meat filling.
One of them couldn't hold back, so he asked, "Aren't you not eating meat?" β
Cheng Rao didn't answer his question and continued to bury her head in eating.
The question asked was not answered, so Wei Chi simply stopped asking.
He didn't eat breakfast, he was really hungry, and ate more than thirty dumplings in one go.
It's been a long time since I've eaten so satisfying.
After eating, Yu Chi and Cheng Rao walked out of the restaurant together.
After coming out of the restaurant, Cheng Rao looked back at Wei Chi: "I've eaten the meal, you can go." β
Wei Chi: "I'm here to see you, not to eat." β
Cheng Rao: "I hate it when people disturb my life. β
When the two were at a stalemate, Wei Chi's mobile phone rang.
He took out his mobile phone and saw that it was a call from the head of the road, presumably there was something important to tell him.
Wei Chi's expression immediately became serious, and he pressed the answer button and put the phone to his ear.
"Chief." Wei Chi took the initiative to speak.
"Busy or not? Now come to the command center and ask for me. Chief Lu said, "I contacted the border side, and I got the list of cooperative operations." β
Yu Chi: "Okay, I'll go over now." β
After talking to Chief Lu, Wei Chi put his phone back and looked at Cheng Rao again.
He coughed, "I'll come back tomorrow to see you, go first." β
Cheng Rao didn't have the heart to reply to him at all, so she turned around and went upstairs.
Wei Chi stared at her back for a while, touched the tip of his nose, and left.
β¦β¦β¦
Cheng Rao wanted to read a book again after she went upstairs, but found that she couldn't concentrate anymore.
Seriously calculated, she hadn't stayed at home for so long since she followed MSF out on a mission.
This time, no one contacted her for a long time, and there was no movement in the group at work.
Cheng Rao felt that she had rested at home for long enough, and if she stayed like this, she would have to suffocate to death.
So, she asked in the group chat of the organization: No tasks recently?
For nearly half an hour after the message was sent, no one replied to her.
Cheng Rao felt that something was wrong.
Usually when you are resting, everyone will still chat in the group to some extent, so that no one will reply to a message for more than half an hour like now.
There is only one explanation for this situation - these people went out on a mission behind her back.
Thinking of this, Cheng Rao found Shao Dong's number and dialed it.
The phone can be connected, but there is no answer over there.
In this way, Cheng Rao is more affirmed.
After thinking about it, she started calling Ruan Bai again. Ruan Bai is a person from the logistics side, and he is definitely not as busy as Shao Dong in normal times.
Nguyen Bai's phone can be reached.
After connecting, Ruan Bai asked her, "Oh, why didn't you come with them this time?" β
As soon as Ruan Bai said this, he basically affirmed Cheng Rao's thoughts.
Cheng Rao pursed her lips slightly and asked her, "Where are you?" β
ββ¦β¦ On the Italian side, there is a passenger liner sinking here, the task of short notice, don't you know? β
Cheng Rao: "......"
She really didn't know.
As for the reason, you don't have to think about it to know.
For more than a year, Huang Ping has been donating to MSF, and she is already familiar with the head of MSF China, and it is actually easy to stop her from going on a mission.
Thinking of this, Cheng Rao subconsciously squeezed her mobile phone.
"Huh? Cheng Rao? Is the signal bad? I didn't wait for her response for a long time, Ruan Bai was a little confused.
"It's okay, let's do this first, you're busy." Cheng Rao cut off the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Cheng Rao lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling in the air, seriously recalling what Qiao Ruzhang had said to her before.
After thinking about it, it is still difficult to calm down.
She couldn't give up her job.
She went to be a doctor without borders, not only for Xiao Ye.
It's her dream.
It's a pity that few people don't understand it at all.
*
In the evening, Huang Ping came back, and the mother and daughter sat at the dining table to eat.
Huang Ping was slightly surprised when she saw Cheng Rao eating meat, and then said: "It's long overdue, what's the need for a dead person who can't get along with his body." β
"You asked Director Lin not to notify me of the mission." Cheng Rao didn't answer Huang Ping's words just now, and told her about it directly.
Hearing Cheng Rao say this, Huang Ping's hand holding the milk shook slightly.
She thought that this matter was done seamlessly, but she didn't expect to let her know.
Huang Ping's reaction Cheng Rao saw it in her eyes, and her reaction was basically equivalent to acquiescing in this matter.
"Do you think I'm going to run the company as you ask?" Cheng Rao's expression was very indifferent, "No matter how you threaten, I won't live my life according to your ideas." β
"And what do you want to do?" Huang Ping looked at her angrily, "Running around the world with them all your life?" How long will you have to do this insecure profession? I have cultivated you for so long, I didn't send you to death! β
Huang Ping was really angry, so her speech was more ugly.
After saying that, he started coughing, and he couldn't stop coughing.
Hearing her cough, Cheng Rao clenched her chopsticks.
The nanny and aunt next to her saw that the mother and daughter were arguing, and hurriedly came over to persuade them to fight.
"Rao, your mother is also thinking about you, we all know that you are kind, but that kind of job is really too dangerous, and now that you have a boyfriend, he definitely doesn't want you to run around in those places......"
As soon as the aunt said this, Cheng Rao knew that she must have misunderstood her relationship with Wei Chi.
"That's not my boyfriend." Cheng Rao interrupted her, "I only have one boyfriend, and he's dead." β
After saying this, Cheng Rao directly threw down the chopsticks and left the kitchen.
Huang Ping looked at Cheng Rao's departing back, coughed constantly, and finally coughed up blood.
The aunt next to her was startled when she saw it, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern: "Where is it uncomfortable?" Why don't we get a doctor and take a look......"
"It's fine." Huang Ping waved her hand at her and sighed lightly.
When the aunt saw Huang Ping like this, she felt uncomfortable.
"Rao Rao is still young, I don't understand your good intentions, and she will know when she is a little older." She comforted Huang Ping, "The girl has made progress in the past two days, take your time and give her a little time." β
Huang Ping didn't speak, raised her hand and touched her forehead.
She gives her time, and who will give her time?

Wei Chi got the list of the original mission from the head of the road.
He wanted this list a long time ago, but there were too many procedures involved, and in the end, it was up to the head of the road to come forward to get it done.
After getting the list, Wei Chi returned home with the list and specific information.
The whereabouts of the original mission will be leaked, and it will be leaked by someone inside.
He has investigated all the people on the side of the peacekeepers, and there are no suspicious people.
So, only the other side is possible.
Among them, there are too many uncontrollable factors.
Naturally, it is impossible for the Ministry of Public Security to admit that there is an undercover agent inside, and this matter has been dragging on, and both sides are unwilling to give in.
Previously, Wei Chi had personally gone to talk to the people over there, but there was no progress;
The people sent by the investigation team have not found out the reason, and if it weren't for the head of the road this time, it is estimated that they would not even be able to get the list.
Wei Chi sat at the desk in the room, looking intently at the list.
At that time, the Ministry of Public Security sent more than 60 people to South Africa to carry out counter-terrorism missions with peacekeeping troops.
That time was the best time for them to eradicate the "flying wolf", so the peacekeepers sent out were basically elite soldiers.
It was supposed to be a successful mission, but because of the undercover inside, it failed in a mess.
Not only that, but both the peacekeeping forces and the Ministry of Public Security suffered heavy losses, adding up to more than 30 people.
Wei Chi looked at the list of sacrifices and information, his face was serious, and his lips were stretched into a straight line.
A very thick stack of materials, everyone's file bag is there, to look at it, it is definitely a big project.
β¦β¦β¦
In this way, Yu Chi saw ten o'clock in the night.
I didn't remember to eat until I was hungry.
Dinner is naturally instant noodles, and when he is alone, he always likes to accommodate.
As soon as the instant noodles were brewed, Yu Chi's mobile phone rang.
After seeing the word "home" on the caller ID, Wei Chi was a little surprised.
He didn't expect that someone in that family would call him.
Wei Chi picked up the phone, moved his lips, and didn't know what to say, so he could only wait for that side to say.
"It's me." Ji Yuan's voice came from the earpiece, "Your grandfather has a birthday the day after tomorrow, remember to come back." β
As soon as Ji Yuan said this, Wei Chi remembered that the day after tomorrow was Wei Zhengsheng's seventieth birthday.
His grandson is really incompetent.
Fortunately, there was time the day after tomorrow, so he agreed: "Oh, okay." β
Ji Yuan: "You still haven't slept so late?" β
Wei Chi: "Oh, I'm eating. β
Ji Yuan: "What are you eating?" β
Wei Chi glanced down at the instant noodles on the coffee table, "Instant noodles." β
Ji Yuan: "Eat all day long!" If you have a good life, you have to be mean to yourself, you'd better quickly change jobs and get married and settle down, and everyone in the compound who is about your age has married and had children! β
Ji Yuan and Wei Junliao have always wanted to hug their grandson, and Wei Zhengsheng is also obsessed with his great-grandson, and Yu Chi knows this.
There was really nothing to say to Ji Yuan, listening to her, Wei Chi couldn't help but be upset, so he hung up the phone after a few casual promises.
After hanging up the phone, Wei Chi once again took out the suicide note left by Wei Zhi.
After seeing the sentence he wrote, "justifiable", an idea popped up in Wei Chi's head.
**
The night is lonely.
On the sofa in the living room, the woman leaned on the man's shoulder, and one hand reluctantly wrapped around his waist.
"Don't stay a few more days...... When is the next time we meet? β
The man pursed his lips and didn't speak, one hand went up from her back, touched her hair, and rubbed it gently.
Rare tenderness.
"Wait until it's over." He said, "Now, do what you have to do." β
She nodded, leaning quietly on him and not speaking.
At this moment, the mobile phone on the coffee table suddenly vibrate.
The man picked up the phone before she could and saw the text messages inside.
Short message from: Big Brother.
Seeing these two words, his expression became serious, and he clicked into the text message to check the content.
"The day after tomorrow, my grandfather will be 70th birthday, I'll take you and Qiqi back."
After reading the text message, the man gave her the phone back, "Say yes." β
She took the phone and read the content of the text message clearly, then bowed her head slightly and agreed.
After replying to the text, she leaned on his shoulder again.
"You're not going to fall in love with someone else, are you?"
"No, it won't." The man's answer was crisp and cold, and he couldn't hear any warmth, "You just need to be obedient." β
**
The next day, Wei Chi didn't go to Cheng Rao, Wei Zhengsheng had his seventieth birthday, and he spent one day coming out to give Wei Zhengsheng a gift, which was bought with his own salary card.
After Wei Chi entered the army, he basically didn't use his family's money again, mainly because he usually didn't have anything to spend money on, and his monthly salary, task bonuses and army subsidies were all in one card.
It was also when he was shopping that he had time to look at the balance in the card.
At first glance, he felt that he was really poor.
At least compared to Cheng Rao, he is quite poor.
Thinking of this, Wei Chi was a little depressed-
β¦β¦β¦
Soon came Wei Zhengsheng's 70th birthday. Wei Zhengsheng has always been diligent and thrifty, and his 70th birthday was not extravagant, but he just called some people with good relations to come, set up a few tables at home, and celebrate casually, mainly because friends get together and have fun.
Early in the morning, Wei Chi drove to pick up Xia You and Qiqi.
Because he was going to Wei's house, Xia You deliberately dressed more formally today, and also wore a new set of clothes for Qiqi.
After Qiqi saw Wei Chi, he grinned and called him "uncle".
The child is more than a year old this year, and his speech is not very clear.
After getting into the car with the flag, Xia You was a little uneasy.
She nervously asked Wei Chi, "Wouldn't this be bad?" β
The people of the Wei family have always looked down on her, and she knows this.
Moreover, the flag is getting bigger and bigger now, and it has no resemblance to the flag at all.
Wei Chi can't notice this, it doesn't mean that Wei's family can't pay attention to it......
Just thinking about it made Xia You feel nervous.
"No, Wei Zhi has always wanted to give you a rightful identity." Wei Chi said, "Don't be nervous, I won't let them bully you." β
After hearing Yu Chi's assurance, Xia You breathed a sigh of relief.
**
Cheng Rao and Huang Ping quarreled for two days, and neither of them was willing to compromise.
Huang Ping refused to let go of her on the mission, and even sent someone to guard her at the door of her house and prevent her from going out - Cheng Rao thought it was funny.
What age is it, and the ancient grounding is still engaged.
Shao Dong called her back before, saying that the next mission should be in a week.
Cheng Rao set a time with him. There's not much to do this week, and it doesn't matter if you're grounded.
So, I feel at ease to read books at home to enrich myself.
When Cheng Rao was sitting on the bed reading a book, Xiao Lu called.
After experiencing the previous unpleasantness, Xiao Lu didn't contact her during this time.
No, Cheng Rao didn't blame Xiao Lu in her heart, because she was Xiao Ye's sister.
Although she said that she wanted to let go of the past, it was impossible to ignore the affairs of the Xiao family, this was her promise to Xiao Ye.
Therefore, Cheng Rao finally answered the phone.
As soon as the phone call of "sister-in-law ......" was connected, Cheng Rao heard Xiao Lu's crying voice.
Her expression became much more serious, and she asked, "What's wrong with you?" β
Xiao Lu sniffed and said, "Last night, I suddenly received a notice that the community we live in was going to be demolished, and the Land Bureau said that our community was illegally built, and no compensation will be given...... But my parents worked hard all their lives to buy the house......"
"Don't cry yet." Cheng Rao asked Xiao Lu: "The Land Bureau just said that it was an illegal building?" β
Xiao Lu: "Hmm...... It seems that it is going to be demolished and an office building will be built...... I don't know ...... either."
Xiao Lu cried so much that she couldn't breathe.
"Don't worry." Cheng Rao said to Xiao Lu, "Wait until the news is confirmed, if you really want to demolish it, I will arrange a place for you to live." β
When Xiao Lu heard Cheng Rao say this, she was so moved.
Thinking about the conflict with Cheng Rao because of Wei Chi's matter before, I was a little ashamed.
After being silent for a while, she apologized to Cheng Rao: "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I was not good for me before, I shouldn't have quarreled with you for those little things, you have always been so good to us, and I still quarrel with you...... It's so ignorant. β
"It's fine." Regarding Xiao Lu's apology, Cheng Rao only had two words to respond.
She's never been good at responding to these sensual words.
After finishing speaking, she said to Xiao Lu: "First of all, I'll take the time to see you." β
