Chu Jinming accompanied Xi Ruien for a routine pregnancy check-up. Even though she had passed the military medical team examination and became a regular employee, she still couldn't help but feel nervous about her marriage to Xi Ruien.

The doctor who examined him smiled and congratulated him and handed over the examination report which showed that all the indicators were normal. It was just a little sprout that was almost two months old. Chu Jinming stared at it almost every day. Sometimes, Siren felt embarrassed. In this way, when he went to work in the military department, Chu Jinming wanted to stay in Sirien's office until Sirien had no choice but to persuade him to leave.

Chu Jinming also had to admit that his attention was a bit too much. It was clear that Xi Ruien's reaction during pregnancy was not that big, but his curiosity and confusion made his behavior change.

Lance Mu silently counted. This was the 178th time Chu Jinming sighed this morning. Lance Mu put down the accounts he had compiled and sighed unconsciously, "Mr. Chu Jinming, if you sigh again, the store There are clouds gathering inside, can you tell me what happened?"

Chu Jinming held her chin, blinked and raised her head innocently, "What? How did you know that I was a little confused after Xi Ruien became pregnant? Eh... After all, I am not ready to be a new father. How will I prepare the dowry and betrothal gifts for my child in the future..."

A black line slid down Lance Mu's head. Did he ask this? Returning the gift and dowry was such a far-reaching thought. Lance Mu rolled his eyes to the sky, turned around and stopped disturbing her.

The military headquarters was supposed to have a rest today, but Sirien suddenly received a request for a meeting, so he finally managed to coax him. He rejected Chu Jinming’s request to attend the meeting and hurried to the military headquarters. Now Chu Jinming was sad and accused Sirien. He only loves his work but not himself, so he goes into his store with a look of grievance on his face.

The wind chime at the door of the store rang, and Chu Jinming didn't even raise his eyes. His melancholy look attracted several little nymphomaniacs to whisper, and a pair of shoes appeared in front of him. Chu Jinming frowned and looked up.

Jean appeared in front of him with a baby face. Chu Jinming did not stand up, but just smiled with a qualified welcome, "Welcome to Sir Jean, I hope you have a happy shopping and enjoy the delicious food."

With a smile on his face, Gene leaned down and whispered softly, "I want to talk to you about... the fact that you were offered a reward by the dark market."

Chu Jinming's eyelashes trembled, and he looked back at the figure who walked to the front desk to buy Thousand Layers. Chu Jinming finally stood up with a serious expression. It was not that he had not investigated this at the time, and even Siren had been secretly investigating the source of the threat. , but the dark market is too complicated, and the intricate forces are even worse than the bloody drama.

Gene walked into the room on the second floor carrying a small cake with a novel expression on his face. Ji Miao happened to open the door and met Chu Jinming and Gene. After a few seconds, Ji Miao stepped back and closed the door.

"Ah...it turns out Lord Mayfly also comes here often." Gene said.

Chu Jinming nodded and led him into another room. Gene put the cake on the table, sat on a chair, and praised the simple and warm interior decoration. Finally, Chu Jinming interrupted. .

Jean shrugged, "You are also an open-minded man, and you should know that information is valuable."

"Useful information is indeed worth paying for, but how do you guarantee that your information is valuable to me?" Chu Jinming put his hands on the table.

"Haha... hahahaha, you are so awesome." Gene suddenly laughed and even patted the table. Chu Jinming was not annoyed and just looked at him quietly. It took a while for Gene to calm down.

"Your bounty was released after Major General Siren recovered from his injury, not when the Major General was forced to atone for his sins. At that time, you knew the information about the Major General's recovery from his injury..." Jean raised his eyebrows. Jin Ming looked at his lively expression and clenched his knuckles under the table.

It wasn't that Chu Jinming had never thought that the military was unclean, but he was more willing to trust the military because of Siren and what he saw. And if it was true as Jean said, his bounty order would be lower than that of Sam Dington. It was still too early to know, which only proved that Siren was just right and he was being targeted. In other words, someone in the military department was targeting him.

"But... your bounty order was dormant for more than three months before it was activated again." Gene broke off a piece of biscuit and put it into his mouth, and spoke slowly.

Three months, Chu Jinming was in a coma for six months, and the first two months were a farce in which Xi Ruien sacrificed himself to cover his ears.

Chu Jinming tapped his fingertips on the table. The only thing that could match the time was... "It's just one-sided words. How can you prove what you said?"

Jean wiped his mouth and remained calm, "You can only judge what I say for yourself. After all, I am just a messenger."

Chu Jinming's pupils shrank suddenly, and he suddenly raised his head to look at the female, "Sending a message? Who is behind you?"

"The time has not come yet." Gene showed a mysterious smile. "I am very happy to talk to you today. I will take my leave now."

Chu Jinming didn't stop him. Since the time hadn't come yet, he wasn't in a hurry. Chu Jinming wanted to see who was really unable to sit still.

Gene went out, smiled and saluted Ji Miao who happened to be outside the door, and then left.

Chu Jinming made a polite and harmonious sound like the green grass being struck by lightning. Ji Miao poked his head, and Chu Jinming slammed the table.

Chu Jinming raised his head and looked at each other with Ji Miao. Ji Miao spread his hands, Chu Jinming pouted, Ji Miao pointed in the direction where Ji En left, and Chu Jinming snorted coldly.

"What...are you making riddles?" Thorndike, who was ordered by Lance Mu to come up to deliver drinks, looked confused. Ji Miao waved her hand and looked back at Chu Jinming.

Chu Jinming sighed, "It's okay, just go and get busy."

Thorndike looked at the two of them, then turned back and went downstairs to continue cashiering. Ji Miao turned her head and looked at him. Chu Jinming said, "It's the situation in the dark market. You may not know."

Ji Miao narrowed his eyes, and then said in a faint voice: "Maybe... I know better than you."

Chu Jinming hummed, with a rising tone, and then smiled, "Yes, Zunjun's network is much easier to use than mine."

Ji Miao was noncommittal. Chu Jinming looked at the window and interrupted the conversation, "By the way, they all call you Lord Mayfly. I wonder what your name is?"

Ji Miao lowered his eyelids, "They don't need to know... and they won't care. It's enough to just know that there is a respected king."

Chu Jinming chuckled.

"How are Major General Siren doing?"

"It's very good. All examinations are very good, and his development is also very good."

Ji Miao nodded lightly, "Everyone is looking forward to the new students. They have always represented hope." Chu Jinming looked up at the figure who looked like a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old.

"I have indeed received a lot of blessings." The corners of Chu Jinming's mouth and eyes were filled with gentle happiness. Ji Miao looked at him quietly, and after a while he slowly said, "If you can... don't get involved in the fights of the nobles, and just stay on your own." It might as well be a way of protection." After saying that, Jimiao turned around and slowly left the store.

Chu Jinming looked at her gradually disappearing figure and seemed to be saying to himself, "There are some undercurrents, you can't just avoid them."
