Seeing that he was always gloomy and looked bad, Wen Shutong's patience was almost exhausted.

She didn't think she had done anything wrong, and she had always kept a proper distance from him. Now he looked like a husband who suspected his wife's cheating.

After taking a deep breath, she continued to explain: "he sent me photos of Sui detective. I saw that although I was holding a wine bottle and fighting with others, I was very worried, so I hurried over."

"Don't you have a husband?" Huo Yanlin looked down at her. "Don't you know this situation can help me? You also know that he almost fought with others. The scene is very dangerous. He has to go alone?"

Huo Yanlin's first reaction was to worry about her safety. Up to now, he was afraid. If Wen Shutong went alone, what if he was hurt by those people?

People who drink in bars from night to day have no reason to speak of. It's taboo to start.

"I didn't think so much at first. I just wanted to get Sui detective out. What's more, there were people around him when he was traveling. If he didn't ensure his absolute safety, I don't think he would stay in the bar for so long."

Knowing that he was worried about his own safety, Wen Shutong's tone was gentle, "don't be angry. At least we'll make sure Sui Jian is okay, and I'll tell you, he told me..."

As she spoke, she took the initiative to stretch out her hand to pull Huo Yanlin's sleeve, but the other party flashed quietly.

"You just trust him and make sure it's safe around him?" Huo Yanlin's voice became more and more low. "You said you want freedom and self, I can respect you and do everything by you."

When Wen Shutong's hand became stiff, he raised his eyelids and looked at him: "yes, what's the matter?"

"But do you want to cut it to this point? Even now, you have to hide it from me and go alone? Do you feel ashamed to be protected by my bodyguard? Or do you subconsciously feel safe around him?"

Huo Yanlin folded his legs and supported the table behind him with one hand. The expression on his face was very ugly, and he asked a few questions one after another.

Wen Shutong wanted to explain, but she thought carefully. It seemed that at that moment, she really didn't expect to seek Huo Yanlin's protection at all. She thought she could do it.

"I... didn't." she explained in vain. "In fact, I didn't think there would be danger at all. Sorry, I didn't notice it. But I also hope you don't be so sensitive to this matter. I haven't reached the point where I don't even want to inform you of this kind of thing in order to make myself independent."

"Am I sensitive?" Huo Yanlin raised his lips coldly. "You pushed me away again and again. I asked, but it became my sensitive?"

"Don't drill into the horns. When did I push you away?" Wen Shutong suddenly raised his voice.

At this time, the vibration of the mobile phone suddenly broke the strange atmosphere between the two people. Wen Shutong took out his mobile phone and took a look.

It shows the name of Seth.

Now he was upset and didn't intend to answer the phone at all. Huo Yanlin looked at her quietly with a mocking smile in his mouth.

In this case, if you don't answer, it's no different from having a ghost in your heart.

Wen Shutong took a deep breath, suppressed the idea he had just questioned, connected the phone in front of him and turned on the hands-free.

But both of them know that once the two sides get along to this point and need to turn on hands-free when connecting the phone, it is no different from completely stripping trust.

Getting along like this is no different from a tragedy.

"Have you got your lunch, Mr. Wen?" the other party's gentle voice came over.

When doing psychological counseling, in order to keep the other party relaxed, psychological counselors are generally called teachers.

"Well, I got it." Wen Shutong pressed his emotions.

"Is the braised shrimp in the back delicious?" he continued.

"Not bad." Wen Shutong is angry now. He has no spare power to analyze what the other party said. He can only go on according to his words.

"It seems that you didn't open it at all. You don't like greasy food. There are no braised prawns. They are all simple meals." he smiled. "I called to check whether you had a good lunch. I was really disobedient."

Huo Yanlin waved unbearably and motioned her to take her mobile phone.

Originally, Wen Shutong didn't care about this kind of thing, but on second thought, he was still investigating the matter of Sui detective's family to his family. For the time being, he couldn't completely offend people.

So his mind moved slightly. He didn't hand over his mobile phone, but whispered, "Mr. Si, I really appreciate your kindness, but I don't think the relationship between us is enough to make such a joke."

"My husband is still around. He plans to take me to lunch later, so you don't need it for the time being. Thank you very much."

"Today you taught me a lesson. I've paid the reward. I don't think it's necessary to be redundant. You said let me say what I think in my heart. Now I clearly draw the line between us, OK?"

The man on the other end of the phone paused first, followed by his tone, and said briskly, "isn't our boundary always obvious, just an ordinary friend? Sorry, I may be really enthusiastic about my friends, which caused you some unnecessary misunderstandings. I apologize to you."

"No, to be exact, the two of us are not even friends. We can only be regarded as a consulting relationship."

"Yes, we have a rule that we can't have intimate communication with visitors. In fact, you have made me break the rules." Wen Shutong said, "of course, it's not your problem. I have my own reasons. I'm sorry."

"No, no, it's my own wishful thinking. I must insist that you be my consultant." he also quickly opened his mouth, "otherwise, I won't talk to you face-to-face about the investigation. I'll send it to you in the form of documents, and we only maintain that kind of consultation relationship."

"OK." Wen Shutong sighed a little relieved, "thank you."

"By the way, since your husband is around, you can ask him where his investigation has progressed. If the data of the two of us are combined, there may be new discoveries. That's it. Bye."

After that, he didn't understand Wen Shutong's answer at all. He hung up the phone directly without any superfluous meaning.

Huo Yanlin's face was still not very good-looking. He stood quietly for at least five minutes and listened to them talking.

Even if it is to get rid of the relationship, there is a kind of inextricable connection in the tone.
