Chapter 152: Recruitment
Chapter 152: Recruitment
They looked quite regretful as they spoke.
If Tong Yusui was here, she would have realized that these were her classmates. She didn't know why she was so curious and followed her up.
Lu Youcai glanced at the empty corridor again, feeling somewhat unwilling, "How about we look forward?"
Just now, a group of them were drinking in a booth outside. When they looked around, they found Tong Yusui coming in from outside. This person was very strange. He didn't come to the military training, didn't participate in group activities, and disappeared after school. As a not-so-transparent person, his solitary personality made many classmates a little curious.
Especially today, she didn't look for a seat, didn't enjoy drinking or listening to music, and her familiarity made people curious. They always felt that this woman was a little mysterious, and driven by curiosity, they followed quietly behind.
They crouched at the corner to discuss, and finally agreed to go and take a look. When they looked up, two big brothers in black clothes said with serious faces, "No guests allowed here, please leave."
When they saw how strong the two men were, they left with a wry smile.
When they returned to the booth again, countless discussions broke out.
"I knew she was no ordinary woman."
"No guests allowed on the second floor, so she's a staff member? Or, the owner..."
"Could it be..."
Their minds were completely blown away.
In the room, Tong Yusui and Li Hongran said that Mu Xingzhou was investigating her and Yan Shu.
Li Hongran didn't care much, "The matter has been resolved, let them investigate."
However, Li Hongran was still very angry with Mu Xingzhou, and she ignored it not because she didn't know, but because she had already discovered it.
"Monkey's been coming here to cause trouble lately. I knew he didn't like me." Li Hongran snorted coldly, "But I'm not the same person I was two years ago. I'm not afraid of them."
Seeing that she seemed prepared, Tong Yusui finally relaxed.
"Where's Yan Shu? Has he returned home?"
"Well, their restaurant is open again. They've been busy there lately."
……
After staying for a while, Tong Yusui said goodbye. She did not go back, but came to a warehouse and met the five people Ji Ze sent to her.
"You guys should keep an eye on the Zhou family recently. If there's any unusual activity, remember to tell me."
Although Li Hongran was prepared, Tong Yusui was still not too reassured, so he added an extra layer of insurance.
"Okay." These were the confidants that Ji Ze had worked very hard to cultivate, so this little thing wouldn't be difficult to handle.
After the chat she came to the dock.
The once glorious dock was now desolate, and everything was being rebuilt. She could still see traces of the previous explosion, but the sea was dark and clean.
She came without telling Ji Ze and worked with the others.
Soon, she saw someone with a depressed look on his face.
The already silent man became even more silent, and his wheat-colored skin looked even darker in the darkness.
After the warehouse explosion, Zhao Xing fell directly to the bottom and was almost thrown into the sea to feed the fish.
It’s just because he was leading the team that night and he has an unshirkable responsibility.
In that explosion, six people from his team died. The Flying Tigers had no intention of causing trouble this time, as could be seen from the fact that there were only eight of them.
Later, one of Zhao Xing's team members reported that the fire might have been caused by someone bringing a lighter into the warehouse.
There is no way to verify this matter, but it is clearly stated that open flames and lighters are not allowed in the warehouse. Even if the fire did not come from a lighter, they cannot escape responsibility.
It’s a mercy that we didn’t throw him into the sea to feed the fish.
Zhao Xing, who was busy, felt that the person next to him had changed. He couldn't help but look up and saw that it was her. His expression instantly turned cold.
Although she didn't do this, she couldn't escape responsibility. If she hadn't argued with that person, he wouldn't have left early, nor would he have forgotten to hand over the lighter...
Tong Yusui didn't care and continued to busy herself beside him.
Finally, it was time to change shifts. Zhao, who had been busy for a long time, woke up and went to the empty beach to empty his mind and light a cigarette.
Tong Yusui sat next to him and looked at the spark in his darkness. "I thought you would quit smoking after this incident!"
His smoking hand paused for a few seconds before he placed the cigarette between his lips and took a drag. The resentment in his heart subsided unconsciously. His voice was slightly hoarse, as if he hadn't spoken to anyone in a long time. "I can't quit."
Tong Yusui nodded, took out a cigarette from her pocket and lit it. It was a ladies' cigarette, so the smell wasn't as pungent, but many people said it was boring to smoke. She didn't know if it was because she was used to smoking something else, but she also felt it was boring.
The two of them stared at the distant sea in silence until the sparks died down. Tong Yusui's voice was so flat it almost faded away. "Follow me!"
It was a very plain sentence, but it made Zhao Xing turn towards her suddenly. He stared at the profile of the person next to him. Her delicate skin showed her youth.
He did not make a mocking sound, but lowered his head to think seriously. After all, he knew Tong Yusui's identity.
After a long moment, he finally spoke, "Why me?"
This made Tong Yusui want to laugh. Why? Of course, it's because you're down and out now.
The darkness covered all the turmoil. She was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Liu Yang brought you here. He's in trouble now and he definitely can't take care of you. You won't end well if you stay here, but I need you."
The person next to him fell silent again, and he took out another cigarette from his pocket and lit it.
The smoke ring was blown away by the sea breeze the next second.
"Give me one." Tong Yusui said suddenly.
Zhao Xing paused for two seconds, took out a cigarette and handed it to her. Tong Yusui took it and searched for her lighter in her pocket. The next second, "click."
The slow flames ignited, illuminating his face.
Tong Yusui narrowed his eyes and moved closer to light a cigarette.
"Snapped."
She heard a voice say, "Okay."
Tong Yusui showed a satisfied smile...
It was already past nine o'clock when she returned. Tong Yusui walked towards the somewhat quiet campus. Soon, she heard the sound of hustle and bustle in the distance. She stopped, not knowing what she was looking at.
In fact, she was a little hungry because she had been busy and had not eaten at night, but she was too lazy to eat now. She was in a bad mood, so she continued to move forward.
"came back."
Xia Zhuomian was wandering around in circles on the small path in front of the dormitory. He was studying in the library this afternoon. He asked her when she would be back, but she said he had something to do and would be back late, so there was no need to wait for her.
But Xia Zhuomian knew her too well, so he waited for her on the road she had to pass. He came directly from the library with the books still in his arms.
Tong Yusui stopped walking when he heard the familiar voice, and asked happily, "Why are you here?"
"Wait for you!"
If she was very busy and had no time, she might say she would not come back. Since she came back, it meant that it was not a big problem. He had always been waiting for her at home before.
"Have you eaten well?" In the previous life, Sui Sui had the habit of not eating well. She would be too lazy to eat when she was busy. In this life, Sui Sui's diet is quite regular and she should not skip meals. Xia Zhuomian just asked casually.
Tong Yusui touched his stomach and suddenly felt a big appetite.
"I'm a little hungry."
Xia Zhuomian opened his eyes wide in disbelief, then glared at her angrily and pulled her hand forward, "Are you so busy that you don't even have time to eat?"
Tong Yusui saw that he was angry and smiled awkwardly, "I'm hungry again."
