There is nothing strange about Xie Changting. At eleven o'clock, I poured myself a glass of red wine and returned to my desk.

"Does he have a woman?" Zhang Xiaofo asked suddenly.

"I haven't heard of it! Our Director Xie is said to be not close to women! Cao Ting rubbed her sore feet: "What's wrong?" ”

"That!" Zhang Xiaofo pointed to the bookcase behind Xie Changting: "There is a copy of "A Guide to Pregnancy" there. I don't think a man would buy this for himself! ”

"Where? Where? Let me see. Cao Ting immediately narrowed her eyes. After looking at it for a moment, he immediately turned around and asked Zhang Xiaofo in a low voice: "How did you notice?" ”

Faced with Cao Ting's suspicions, Zhang Xiaofo had no choice but to explain: "You see that the colors of the books in the row of bookcases behind the desk are darker than dull, but the one is a bells and whistles pink, which can be seen at a glance!" ”

"But what does a book say?" Cao Ting criticized in her heart: "Isn't it strange if Xie Changting changes his taste and buys such a book casually?" ”

"Would you buy a man's ** to wear?" Zhang Xiaofo snatched a white snort, making Cao Ting swallow a big mouthful of injustice.

"Can't you let a woman?" It took Cao Ting a long time to spit out that breath: "It's ungraceful to do this, right?" ”

"Are you a woman?"

"You!"

Cao Ting finally knew how powerful Zhang Xiaofo was, but she simply ignored it.

"Let's go!" Zhang Xiaofo suddenly climbed down.

"Why?" Cao Ting was puzzled: "Don't you stalk?" ”

"The purpose of our visit has been achieved. Don't think that everyone else is stupid, it will be easy to find out if you keep staring at it! When staring, Zhang Xiaofo chose a very hidden location, and the air-conditioning rack on the side of the balcony happened to be facing a window that could not be opened.

The third floor is not high, and it is easy to go up when you go up, but when you go down, Cao Ting still has some drums in her heart.

Zhang Xiaofo's body is very flexible, and he stepped on the ground with three times and two feet. Looking up, Cao Ting was still squatting on the air conditioning rack, and there was no movement, so she could only beckon.

Cao Ting shook her head.

Zhang Xiaofo turned around and left.

Cao Ting was anxious, and secretly scolded Zhang Xiaofo in her heart for not being righteous, her feet slipped, and what she saw in front of her changed her appearance......

The imaginary pain did not appear, Cao Ting looked at the man holding her in her arms with very bright eyes for a few seconds, and then hurriedly pushed the other party away.

Zhang Xiaofo didn't care, he shook his arm, and his hand was numb when he caught Cao Ting just now.

"That!" Cao Ting called out to Zhang Xiaofo.

"......" Zhang Xiaofo listened.

"I don't usually have such a waste of wood!" Cao Ting explained: "I have an IQ of 168! I'm strong in my field of expertise! ”

"......" Zhang Xiaofo waited for Cao Ting's final conclusion.

"It was just a mistake today!"

"It was a mistake!"

I don't know why I got Zhang Xiaofo's support, Cao Ting didn't feel much more comfortable in her heart.

……

Xie Changting, who was working at the desk, finally raised his head, picked up the red wine glass on the table, and slowly paced to the window. Looking at the sycamore tree outside the window, I craned my neck, and the red wine disappeared from my lips.

……

After messing around with Cao Ting for most of the night, Zhang Xiaofo returned to the paper shop.

There's a new mug on the desk.

"I didn't see Boss Hua when I came back just now!" Zhang Xiaofo handed the coat to Lianhua.

"There is a mission to go out!" Since the last time she talked about it, Lianhua's attitude towards Zhang Xiaofo has changed significantly.

"Boss Hua also has a task?" Zhang Xiaofo couldn't believe that a flower boss like Fat Cheng could do any tasks, and in his impression, the flower boss didn't seem to have left the paper shop one step: "I thought I was working alone in this shop!" ”

Lianhua smiled, gave Zhang Xiaofo Zhang breakfast, and then went to the ground to see the store.

Zhang Xiaofo originally planned to take a good rest, recover a little physical strength, and replenish some sleep. I really can't stay up if I don't sleep, and even the feeling of my fingertips has degraded a lot. But before he could close his eyes, the phone rang. It's Chen Ran. Zhang Xiaofo hesitated a few times but still connected.

"You resigned?" Chen Ran on the other end of the phone was obviously depressed: "Why? ”

"Hmm!" Zhang Xiaofo's lack of interest: "My own reasons! ”

"Can you meet in person?"

Hearing the sincerity in Chen Ran's words, Zhang Xiaofo agreed.

……

The meeting point is set at a quieter café in the city center.

When Chen Ran arrived, Zhang Xiaofo had already arrived for a while.

Zhang Xiaofo closed his eyes, Chen Ran didn't want to disturb, asked the waiter for a cup of boiled water, and waited quietly. In fact, he had a lot of grievances when he came over, and wanted to show that everything was not his own volition, but it wasn't until he saw Zhang Xiaofo at this time that he felt that there was no point in explaining. Once a person decides not to hide any more, the heart becomes fearless. All the apprehensions were miraculously subsided.

Zhang Xiaofo didn't expect that he just closed his eyes and fell asleep, falling into the nightmare of the past. This time, though, there was progress. He was chained around his neck and limbs, the other end of which reached into the darkness. The skin and flesh of the whole body seemed to be torn apart, and it was miserable. There seemed to be something beneath his body, and he wanted to turn his head to look at it...... Little by little...... I'm about to see it...... See......

Chen Ran found that Zhang Xiaofo's breathing on the other side suddenly became intense, obviously having a nightmare, and just wanted to wake him up, but found that the other party had already opened his eyes. Although Zhang Xiaofo quickly returned to his original state, Chen Ran was sure that he saw a moment of fear in Zhang Xiaofo's eyes.

"Nightmare?" Chen Ran looked casual, as if there was no estrangement between them at all: "What did you dream of?" Look at what scares you! ”

"I don't remember!" Zhang Xiaofo really doesn't remember.

Chen Ran took Zhang Xiaofo's answer as a signal of alienation: "I didn't mean it!" ”

"Huh?"

"I didn't know you were a Wic! Until you saved me in the basement of the hospital! But I swear, I haven't ever told anyone about it. I was injured last time, and I couldn't hide it anymore, so I told the man about you. As a result, a few days later, you proposed to take me to practice courage, so the man asked us to go to Masuling Cemetery...... You know the rest of the story. ”

"What kind of monster are you?" Zhang Xiaofo asked, obviously he still saw Chen Ran's honesty in his eyes.

"I'm not a monster!" Chen Ran was furious: "I'm a normal human being! ”

"......" Zhang Xiaofo looked incredulous.

"Okay!" Chen Ran cleaned up his mood: "I am indeed a human being!" I was a normal human before I met you! ”

"You should be glad you're a human!" Zhang Xiaofo moved his body slightly.
