Zhou Xun said, "It's a pity that we lost them."

I'm sorry, too.

As for the secret he hid from me back then, I didn't mind. After all, it was related to Uncle Zhou.

After a pause, I asked, "Then …" "What should we do next?"

In the last ten years, the clues would only decrease.

Furthermore, Zhou Xun had also returned to the imperial city. Did that mean that he had given up on following the mercenary leader's son?

Zhou Tong was quiet for a moment, before saying, "We will continue to investigate, but I will not be able to tell you about everything else …" "As long as you know what's good for you."

I nodded. "I understand."

He didn't tell me, but he did it for my sake. After all, there was a great danger in this, and the less I knew, the better.

I suddenly remembered something. I propped my upper body up and lowered my head to look at him. "At that time, you were at the Fortune Store. Did you see the murderer of Wu Mei?"

Zhou Xun and I looked at each other in silence.

I thought he was recalling the situation.

In the end, he once again put my head in his arms and changed the topic. "Darling, there are some things I want to talk to you about."

He sounded serious.

I was instantly nervous.

He said, "I hope that you can live a simple life and not be implicated by me …"

I held him by the waist and didn't say anything.

He sighed softly and said, "The Zhou family is a whirlpool. At first, I hesitated for a long time, but in the end, I decided to keep you by my side … But now I regret it again … "I'm afraid that you will be in danger, afraid that you will be harmed because of me …"

I remember Shen Zixian saying that the Zhou family is very complicated, and now Zhou Xun also said that the Zhou family is a whirlpool.

But as far as I'm concerned, Grandpa Zhou and little Rui are good, and I don't think the Zhou family is that complicated.

Maybe I don't know what's going on yet...

I leaned against his chest as I listened to his steady and powerful heartbeat. "I'm not afraid."

Now that I had fallen in love with him and he had given me the chance to stay with him, I would not leave him unless he himself told me one day that our agreement was over and that he no longer needed me.

When Zhou Xun heard this, he pinched my chin and looked deeply at me. "But precious, I might injure you …"

I tilted my head and kissed the tip of his finger. "I'm not afraid either."

If it was external danger, honestly speaking, I would have long been mentally prepared for it. Even if I were to be kidnapped again, or if something else happened, I would be able to persevere.

As for other factors... For example, if his sweetheart is back, he wants to have a good time with her again. As long as he can explain it clearly to me, I think I can accept it.

Even if I was hurt by him, I would do it willingly.

At least I had stood beside him and walked with him.

Zhou Xun's eyes slowly dimmed as he abruptly flipped over and pressed me down on the sofa.

He began to kiss my lips, my neck, my burning lips all the way down.

I almost went limp in his attack.

Fortunately, I still remember that little Rui is in the room, so I quickly pushed him and said, "Uncle Zhou …" Rui … "

Zhou Xun must have had some scruples too. He bit my mouth hard and listened.

He buries his head in my neck and hugs me tightly, his light breathing, his hot breath, all in my ear.

I felt hot all over.

After an unknown amount of time, he turned around and carried me to him. He pinched my earlobe and said, "Darling, remember what you just said."

I felt my limbs go weak and my head spin a little.

It took me a moment to remember what I had said.

I said two were not afraid.

I'm not afraid to be implicated by him or hurt by him.

I whispered, "Yes, I remember."

He caressed my face. "Then don't leave me either."

I thought back to Grandpa Zhou's words. He had said that the three Zhou brothers were stubborn in nature and that up until now, Brother Zhou had no intention of remarrying. However, once Zhou Xun decided on someone, he would persist until the end.

Perhaps, Zhou Xun didn't want me to be the one for a long period of time. At this moment, his request might have been to take me as the person in his heart.

But in the end, I couldn't bear to let him down, so I gave him my promise, "As long as you need me, I will be by your side."

He looked at me steadily for a moment, then clasped me tightly in his arms.

I could feel his heart pounding in my chest, and I could smell the faint scent of mint on him, and I felt my heart soften.

The night was quieter outside, with the occasional chirping and chirping of insects and birds entering the house.

I pressed my face against Zhou Xun's chest. Suddenly, I remembered something and raised my head to look at him. "That's right, Uncle Zhou. I promised Senior Shen that I will report to the task force tomorrow."

Zhou Xun rarely interfered with my decision. He only touched the back of my hand to show that he had heard me.

I hesitated and said, "But I want to keep Rui Rui company more... "How about I push it …"

If I had seen Xiao Rui earlier, I wouldn't have agreed to Shen Zixian's request, especially after knowing what happened to Xiao Rui, I wanted to accompany him even more.

But since I replied Shen Zixian, it's not good for me to put the pigeon away.

I was in a dilemma, unable to make up my mind.

Zhou Xun looked at me warmly and said, "No need, I'll just bring Rui Rui."

"You brought him?"

He chuckled, "Yes, Rui Rui is half a year old and one year old. I have been taking care of him."

My eyes widened.

He really couldn't see that he had the patience to take care of the child.

But I remembered the time he held Rui Rui and listened to Rui Rui, and I could see that he loved her very much.

I didn't say anything more.

But I also thought to myself that I must find more time to accompany little Rui.

After all, what little Rui is missing is maternal love, I hope to make him happier and happier.

The next day, little Rui stuck to me.

I held him while we ate breakfast.

After that, Grandpa Zhou just threw little Rui to me and Zhou Xun and went out to fish with his old friend.

Fortunately, Zhou Xun and I had already discussed this matter last night, and we did not panic.

We went out together, and Zhou Xun took me to the task force.

On the way, I made it clear to Rui that we would have to be apart for a while, and that we would be able to meet when it was almost dark.

Rui had promised Rui that he would be fine, but when I got out of the car, he hugged me tightly around my neck.

Even though I didn't say anything, the unwillingness to part in my eyes made my heart weak.

I almost didn't want to go.

However, Zhou Xun carried Little Rui over and said, "We agreed that we can't delay Little Aunt from working."

Little Rui retracted her hand, feeling wronged, so I had to let him go.

After a pause, I went over and kissed Rui Rui's chubby cheeks. "Rui Rui, be good and play with uncle during the day and auntie will tell you a story at night, ok?"

Xiao Rui stretched out her hand and said softly, "Then let's pull the hook ~"

My heart almost melted. I immediately pulled the hook with him.

Zhou Xun frowned and said, "If you get up in the middle of the night to hug Rui Rui, I'll make it so that you won't be able to get out of bed for three days and three nights."

Me: "…"

Although three days and three nights is a bit of an exaggeration, but his physical strength is good, so I can definitely do it if I don't get up.

However, how could he say all this in front of little Rui Rui … Although Rui Rui was young and still didn't understand what it meant to not get up, he couldn't speak nonsense in front of his children …

However, little Rui Rui was still looking curiously at me and Zhou Xun with her bright black eyes.

My cheeks were burning hot, and I couldn't help but feel a chill run down my spine. Glaring fiercely at Zhou Xun, I pushed open the door to get out of the car.

However, Zhou Xun grabbed onto his arm.

He didn't look at me, but whispered to little Rui, "Kiss little aunt for me."

Xiao Rui's eyes curved into a curve, and kissed on my forehead: "Little Aunt, goodbye ~"

My face broke into a smile.

The corners of Zhou Xun's mouth curled up as he leaned forward and gave me a quick kiss. "Go."

My heart filled with sweetness.

As I watched the car drive away, I couldn't help but touch the corner of my mouth. I felt as if there was still the warmth of his lips on it.

I walked into the task force laughing.

This was the Empire Capital Bureau. The office was much larger than Flower Lover's. The task force was on the left side of the second building. After entering the building, they had to go up to the second floor.

Shen Zixian is already waiting for me in his office.

He looked at me and said, "Are you in a good mood?"

Of course I couldn't tell him about my private affairs, so I just smiled and said nothing.

Shen Zisheng didn't ask any further, he just passed me a piece of material and said: "You have to take over the job anew. This time it's very strict, the fingerprints and DNA must be recorded in the system. However, this is a normal procedure, you don't have to be nervous. "

I nodded.

After that I went through the formalities.

The efficiency was still very fast. It was settled in an entire morning.

At noon, I planned to go to the cafeteria to eat with my colleagues. Several of my colleagues had already met at the Flower Hall, and they were about the same age as me.

More importantly, they have seen Su Yan create trouble, Gu Qiong come looking for me, and Zhou Xun defend me. However, they did not underestimate or gossip, and their attitude did not change, which made me feel at ease.

That's why I'm willing to associate with them.

Just as he walked out of the office with his colleagues, he saw Zhou An walking in with a thermos in his hand.

I was surprised.

Zhou An walked over and said, "Miss Nian, Third Young Master asked Aunt Ning to prepare lunch for you."

Although I corrected myself a few times and told him to just tell me to read it directly, he still used the same honorific title as Zhou Ning. In the end, I had no choice but to give up.

The other colleagues left in understanding.

It was just me and Zhou An at the door.

I curiously asked, "Why are you the one who sent me food?"

As far as I know, Zhou An is the leader of the bodyguards surrounding Zhou Xun. His position and position are the same as Zhou Ning, and he is Zhou Xun's most trusted confidant.

Sending him to bring me food, that's too much of a waste.

Zhou An said respectfully, "Third Young Master said that I will protect Miss Nian's safety from now on." He paused, then said, "We'll be right outside. If anything happens to you, give me a call immediately."

I was surprised.

Zhou An was previously in charge of Zhou Xun's safety, so why did Zhou Xun send him to my side?

I frowned.

In my opinion, Zhou Xun was much more important than me, and Zhou An, of course, was better off following him.

However, it was impossible for me to discuss this with Zhou An. After all, he was only following orders. I smiled and said, "Alright, I'll be troubling you."

After that, Zhou An left.

I was about to take the thermos to the cafeteria when I saw Shen Zixian and Tao Zhizhou standing at the foot of the stairs, both looking at me.

Shen Zixian raised his eyebrows, "If I remember correctly, that man just now was the leader of Zhou Xun's bodyguards. He actually brought you food …. I can't tell, but you're still rather spoiled. "

His tone was clearly mocking.

I was a bit speechless, but I didn't feel like I could directly return the favor, so I could only pretend that I didn't hear him.

Fortunately, Tao Zhizhou's voice broke the awkward silence. He greeted me with a smile, "Ignore him. He has no one to bring him food. He's jealous of you."

I was amused. Then I remembered that my colleague had said that Tao Dui had rushed out to handle a case yesterday. I didn't expect to be back by noon.

Tao Zhizhou seemed to see my doubt and actually explained, "I just came from Flower Landing. The Wu Mei case is progressing."
