XXII. Exchange of information

Seeing An Ruqiao get up to leave, Xie Jingchen subconsciously grabbed her.

"What do you mean I don't care? Where are you going? ”

Xie Jingchen's tone was impatient. The action of holding An Ruqiao was a little bigger, which made the table shook, the dishes on the table collided, and the soup of the dishes also spilled out.

An Ruqiao saw that his face changed, and he was a little more relieved. The strange bad taste was satisfied, and she suddenly became patient again.

immediately hooked her lips, and pressed her other hand on Xie Jingchen's hand that held her arm.

"Go to the bathroom."

An Ruqiao's hands were a little cold, her hand was covered on the back of Xie Jingchen's hand, both patting and stroking, her eyebrows and eyes were lowered, and she was as gentle as the most usual demeanor in normal days.

It's as if none of the previous moodiness and provocations have appeared.

"Won't I go home with you later? Or are you going to go to the bathroom with me? ”

Gentle and a little seductive, Xie Jingchen is the most accustomed to her. The words "go home together" made Xie Jingchen's heart warm, but while he couldn't hold back his heart, he began to doubt himself again.

Is it because of the drug, or is it from the heart? In short, he should not be tempted by RL's next prophet.

No matter how violently Xie Jingchen's heart fluctuated, in short, he let go.

An Ruqiao went to the bathroom, but in fact, she just wanted to look in the mirror, wash her face, and calm down.

The medicine given to Xie Jingchen at that time only stimulated his emotions and desires at that time, and only used a little, according to reason, it should have been metabolized as early as the same day, and the impact should not have lasted so long.

Or is it not a drug effect?

And herself.

She dared to guarantee that she had not been drugged, and she had long been resistant to those drugs, why was she so uncalm and irrational in the face of this man?

And, that eerie sense of familiarity and trust...... Did they ever see each other before they became neighbors?

The cold water slapped on his face, which made An Ruqiao feel excited. The weather is getting warmer in spring, but the wind is still a little chilly at night.

With a long breath, An Ruqiao looked at herself in the mirror. Drops of water slid down her forehead and dripped down the tip of her nose.

She whispered to herself: Don't trust others anymore. You have already experienced the hardships of trusting others too much.

And now is not the time to be in love.

An Ruqiao didn't leave her seat for long, only a few minutes. But it's not short, and both of them make decisions similar to each other.

Feelings aside, intelligence is important.

An Ruqiao returned to her seat. The mess on the table had been cleaned up when the two of them had lost their temper before, and the dishes had been replaced.

Xie Jingchen's demeanor was also much firmer, and this small change made An Ruqiao more determined.

An Ruqiao decided to play a straight ball when he came up.

"Are you looking into the RL organization?"

Xie Jingchen didn't expect her to talk about business as soon as she came back, but she also accepted the offer. "Yes, I have a grudge against RL."

"Coincidentally, I also have a grudge against RL." An Ruqiao pursed her lips, intending to bring Xie Jingchen into her own rhythm, "Then why don't we exchange information?" ”

"Exchange of information? The RL-related incident was a big case and it was classified. If you confess what you know, for your sake, I can reveal to you the parts that are not confidential. ”

Want to empty the gloves of the white wolf?

An Ruqiao folded her legs, put her hands on her laps, and leaned back in the chair.

She licked her lips, their red lips moist and shiny.

"For our neighbors' sake...... I would have liked to work with you. After all, two people always know more than one person. As...... How about you tell me what you know, and if I find it useful to me, I'll share what you want to know with you? ”

It's clear that it's a very strong word, but the tone is as tight as if it's talking about some beautiful topic.

Xie Jingchen straightened up and pressed forward, intending to increase his momentum. Arms propped up on the table, hands fingers crossed.

"Why?"

An Ruqiao raised her head slightly, and squinted down at him, "That's it...... I must know more than you do. ”

Truly.

If An Ruqiao exchanged information with him, with An Ruqiao's identity as the next prophet, he would definitely not lose.

After thinking about it for a while, Xie Jingchen decided to make a slight concession.

When one side gives in, the cooperation goes smoothly. However, neither side has much to say.

What Xie Jingchen told An Ruqiao was mostly uncertain information from interrogation, such as the RL organization's next move in the next city of K.

Correspondingly, in exchange, An Ruqiao revealed the information about the current prophet of the RL organization, that is, the founder of the RL organization.

The current prophet and founder of RL is a Westerner named Aaron, 52 years old.

An Ruqiao even described Aaron's detailed appearance to Xie Jingchen.

Anyway, it's the person you hate, and you don't pit it. Moreover, with the help of Xie Jingchen and their public officials, it is much more convenient to investigate than to investigate secretly by herself.

I don't know where the crazy old fox is hiding.

In addition to exchanging some information, An Ruqiao and Xie Jingchen also made an agreement not to interfere in each other's investigations, and their cooperation was limited to exchanging information.

The first exchange of information was satisfactory to both of them. For this kind of cooperation, An Ruqiao puts it in the position of "mutual use", and feels a temporary peace of mind about this relationship of pure interest.

Relationships maintained by interests are always more stable and long-lasting than relationships maintained solely by feelings. Whether or not betrayal depends only on whether the benefits are enough, rather than on people's subjective feelings.

Of course, after the business was over, the dishes on the table were not wasted. There are no carbs on the table, they are all high in protein and fiber, and An Ruqiao has never said anything about dieting, nor will she deliberately pretend to eat less.

Originally, surgery was a work that consumed both mental and physical strength, and she had to consume enough calories every day to maintain her strength.

The two of them had just finished eating three dishes and one soup, and An Ruqiao's meal was not much better than Xie Jingchen's. However, it didn't make Xie Jingchen feel that she ate too much or anything, after all, Xie Jingchen's aesthetics were not biased towards white and thin.

He may have that kind of strong instinct in his bones, tall and temperamental, independent and strong enough women attract his attention more than those small and cute.

This may be one of the reasons why he has a good impression of An Ruqiao.

After dinner, Xie Jingchen and An Ruqiao went home together. It is said that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and it is really normal for door-to-door neighbors to become familiar with or even close.

Xie Jingchen watched An Ruqiao enter the house.

Seeing An Ruqiao say goodbye to him, the door slowly closed, and the two people across the door had different thoughts and different expressions.

Xie Jingchen did not go home as promised, but turned around and went downstairs and drove away.

And An Ruqiao, after closing the door, stood close to the door, listening to the footsteps that gradually moved away, the sound of the elevator opening the door, and the buzz of the car after that, and also went out.
