deep white secret

Chapter 6 Fight to Fame

"Captain Xu!"

Li Xinyao greeted warmly.

"Take care of my little sister, and I'll say a good word for her."

Ning Xia poked Li Xinyao under the table.

Li Xinyao has a lively personality. Because of Ma Mingjie, she has long been familiar with Xu Jie, and because she is not a direct leader, she treats Xu Jie as a friend.

Ma Mingjie smiled and said fondly:
"It's not big or small!"

Xu Jie didn't mind at all, with a relaxed smile on his face:

"When are you getting married?"

"It's November next year, and the house still needs to be tidied up. My dad is not in good health recently, and I don't have the energy at home. I'll get the certificate first if I have time."

Li Xinyao smiled happily on the side.

While Ma Mingjie was talking, Ningxia lowered her head and carefully picked out the carrots from the assorted corn kernels on the dinner plate.

Ningxia has never liked carrots since she was a child.

I don't like it very much!
Especially the carrots in the assorted corn kernels have a soft and greasy texture that makes you not want to eat them.

The restaurant was noisy, and Ningxia was immersed in her own world, separated from the crowd.

"Carrots are good for your health."

Xu Jie suddenly whispered to Ning Xia.

Ning Xia's chopsticks stopped on the dinner plate and glanced at Xu Jie unexpectedly. No one around them paid attention to them.

Ma Mingjie was talking to Li Xinyao in a low voice, while Shi Yihang leaned over to talk to colleagues from other departments behind him.

Xu Jie and Ning Xia looked at each other, and Ning Xia saw the exploration and scrutiny in Xu Jie's eyes.

Xu Jie saw the helplessness and resistance in Ning Xia's eyes.

Ningxia struggled, and in the end she mixed the carrots on the rice, stuffed them all into her mouth with a spoon, and resisted the temptation to pick up the tomato soup and drink it all in one gulp.

Putting down the soup bowl, Ningxia wiped her mouth with a paper towel.

Shi Yihang suddenly greeted her:

"Ningxia, this is Xiao Song from the Communications Department. You can find him this afternoon."

Ning Xia stood up to say hello. Xiao Song's eyes lit up and he winked at Shi Yihang:

"The new guy in your team? Not bad. Let's go out for dinner together someday?"

Shi Yihang patted him on the shoulder:

"Wherever you go, go and eat quickly!"

Ningxia sat down and didn't want to eat anymore. The soft and greasy feeling of carrots just now lingered in her mouth.

So he put his cheek on one hand and listened to Li Xinyao berating Ma Mingjie.

I just heard Xu Jie say again from the other side:

"The criminal investigation team does not allow leftover food. It is everyone's responsibility to cherish food."

Ning Xia vowed that starting from tomorrow, she would never eat with Xu Jie again. Captain Xu was different from the criminal investigation captain she imagined.

Ningxia had no choice but to clean up all the food on the plate. From the corner of her eye, she saw that there was not a grain of rice left on Xu Jie's plate.

Xu Jie had slender fingers and was sitting by the window. The sunlight just hit him, and he was quiet and strong.

Li Xinyao wrapped Ning Xia's arm after dinner:
"What are you doing during your lunch break? Do you want to go to the lounge and play a round? My level has improved in the past two years."

Ningxia glanced at Xu Jie subconsciously. She clearly remembered that Xu Jie had just told her to go to the communications command center after lunch.

Is this just after lunch now?Or go to work in the afternoon?
Xu Jie successfully received the signal from Ningxia:
"The Communications Department is also taking a break now."

Li Xinyao hissed:
"Team Xu, our Ningxia team is so good. Do you want to compete? Ningxia, you are playing on behalf of our weak team today. In the past two years, the three of us have never defeated Team Xu."

Shi Yihang also became interested, and Ma Mingjie played around with Li Xinyao:
"Team Xu, how about a shot?"

"5 minutes later!"

Li Xinyao happily pulled Ning Xia, as if they had won, and Xu Jie walked to Xiao Song's table in the Communications Department.

When Ning Xia walked out of the cafeteria, she saw Xu Jie and a colleague in his 40s talking about something.

The lounge is upstairs in the cafeteria. Many colleagues are playing table tennis and billiards here after dinner, and the surrounding fitness equipment is also full of people.

Li Xinyao took a pool table, introduced Ningxia to everyone, and announced that Xu Jie would play against Ningxia.

So before the game even started, people gathered around the pool table.

Who is Xu Jie?

No. 1 in the police station’s annual billiards competition!
When Xu Jie walked into the lounge, he saw this scene. Ning Xia was standing by the pool table holding a cue, surrounded by a group of police boys.

Li Xinyao is the most excited:

"Captain Xu, if you lose, you can treat us to a barbecue tonight!"

The crowd burst into laughter and was in high spirits. Ning Xia looked at Xu Jie as calm as a chrysanthemum.

Xu Jie smiled and promised Li Xinyao to eat barbecue, and colleagues who were playing equipment in the distance gathered around, and the competition became the focus of today's noon.

Xu Jie stood beside Ningxia, his voice was deep and mellow, a little teasing:
"Are you teeing off?"

"Captain Xu, then I'm welcome."

Ning Xia had a small face, serious and serious.

Compared with when he was investigating the case, Xu Jie's expression was much more relaxed. Wearing a white shirt, he was refreshing and handsome, and his eyes looking at Ning Xia were actually soft.

But Ningxia didn't pay attention. She bent down to measure the position of the club and released the first shot steadily.

Li Xinyao clapped her hands and applauded:
"Awesome, the full-color ball is in the pocket, Ningxia, you are full-color, come on."

Xu Jie nodded slightly to Ningxia.

Shi Yihang and Ma Mingjie smiled and did not cheer, but looked at Xu Jie provocatively with encouraging eyes. Both of them hoped that Ningxia would win.

Seeing the expressions of Shi Yihang and Ma Mingjie, Xu Jie lowered his eyebrows and raised the corners of his mouth.

Ningxia calmly walked to the mouth of the middle pocket and pocketed six consecutive full-color balls, shocking the scene.

Even Li Xinyao stopped yelling, the last full-color No. 6 ball remained on the table, and the black No. 8 ball stopped at the edge of the bottom pocket.

Ningxia walked back and forth around the ball table, her tall and slim figure wrapped in a black shirt, looking calm and decisive.

The desk was surrounded by people, and the scene was completely silent. Some colleagues heard that Xu Jie was competing against Ningxia and came to watch the game.

Xu Jie finally put down his cue and put his hands on the table, watching with great interest how Ningxia cleared the table.

The No. 6 ball started, rushed past the bouquet, and entered the middle pocket impartially. There was warm applause from the crowd.

On the last shot, the black 8 ball moved steadily along the track at a constant speed and fell into the bottom pocket.

Cheers.

Xu Jie smiled sincerely.

Li Xinyao was the happiest, hugging Ningxia and cheering:

"Why are you so awesome! I love you so much."

Ning Xia looked at Xu Jie with a slight smile on her face.

There are some stars in the eyes, which is the expectation of victory.

Xu Jie picked up the club and walked to Ning Xia.

One black and one white attracted the attention of the whole audience.

The whole audience was cheering and booing. The first in the millennium met an evenly matched opponent. What's more important was that Ning Xia was a girl, or a very beautiful girl.

After everyone was quiet, Xu Jie looked at Li Xinyao:
"I lost?"

Li Xinyao laughed:

"Captain Xu, are you willing to accept the defeat?"

Xu Jie shook his head:
"It took Ningxia 4 minutes. Now I come on. If I clear the stage within 2 minutes, it will be a tie."

Xu Jie's proposal was approved by everyone, and everyone was looking forward to seeing Ningxia shake Xu Jie's unmoved number one position.

Ningxia was different from others. She knew the result was a tie when Xu Jie said these words.

Actually she lost.

But I was willing to lose.

Ning Xia raised her face and looked at Xu Jie with a slight smile. Xu Jie looked back at Ning Xia and smiled even more.

Li Xinyao was the most unhappy. Her joy was diluted by Xu Jie clearing the stage within 2 minutes. Xu Jie finally agreed to treat everyone to a barbecue in the evening. Li Xinyao was still unhappy:
"Team Xu, why do you want a draw? You can't lose to Ningxia and let us all be happy."

Xu Jie asked Ningxia:
"Do you mind winning or losing?"

Ning Xia looked into Xu Jie's eyes sincerely and said in a sweet voice:
"I don't mind losing to Team Xu."

Ningxia really didn't mind, so when the whole police station was talking about Ningxia and Xu Jie in the afternoon, nothing seemed to happen to Ningxia.

The only difference is that when Ning Xia walks in the corridor of the police station, some colleagues will take the initiative to say hello to her.

This reminded Ningxia of four words: Become famous in one battle.
