Chapter 249
At this moment, Gu Tongwan just wanted to cover Liao Yunyun's mouth as quickly as possible. She was a little confused by her own embarrassment and hummed in a low voice: "Tissue..."
As soon as she finished speaking, a tissue was placed in front of her.
"Just wipe it."
Gu Tongwan immediately nodded awkwardly, then picked up a tissue to wipe his mouth.
Although I am not a shy person, I felt embarrassed when I met my childhood friend whom I hadn't seen for many years and happened to see such a childish scene.
Liao Yunyun looked at the two of them, and for the time being, she did not sense any ambiguity. Seeing that her friend only had an embarrassed look on his face, she said softly, "Hey, come on."
Chen Yanxi raised his eyebrows, and understood what Liao Yunyun said.
After tidying up a little, Gu Tongwan raised his head and didn't pay attention to what Liao Yunyun and Chen Yanxi had just said.
"How did you come?"
"Didn't we agree to pick you up?" Chen Yanxi said with a smile.
Gu Tongwan nodded, and then asked, "Then why didn't you send me a message?"
"Thinking that you guys should still be here, I decided to try my luck to meet you." Chen Yanxi's voice was low but slow like flowing water, so it didn't sound oppressive. Instead, it made Gu Tongwan feel like she was back in her childhood. At that time, she loved to stick to her "little brother". Except for going to the toilet, she basically stayed by Chen Yanxi's side all the time.
Even when Chen Yanxi became busy with schoolwork after entering the third year of junior high school and could not go back to the orphanage often, Gu Tongwan would always keep muttering about where her "little brother" had gone.
However, after Chen Yanxi was taken away by his family, Gu Tongwan was also adopted. After that, the two gradually lost contact. The last time they got in touch was when Gu Tongwan just went to college, but for some reason the two never met.
In fact, Gu Tongwan had thought about the scene when the two would meet again countless times. Would it be at the orphanage's anniversary celebration, or at a boring event, or one of them would fly directly to the other's city.
But no matter how much she planned, she still didn't expect that the first time they met would be at a hunting conference.
But that was not the first time. The first time in the correct sense should be on the black market. But at that time she used cosmetics to disguise herself as a man, and Chen Yanxi was even a big customer who ordered braised meat from her.
So much so that now the note about Chen Yanxi on her second account is still "the big boss who loves to eat braised meat".
Forget it, it’s better not to let him know about this to avoid getting myself into trouble. After all, the other party is now the captain of the hunter team, or to put it bluntly, a high-ranking official in the base.
"You're driving here? I'm driving here too. How about this? You take Yunyun back to the community and I'll drive there myself."
Today we agreed to help Liao Yunyun clean her apartment and decorate the room.
Chen Yanxi glanced at Liao Yunyun, who seemed to understand what he meant and immediately said, "Wanwan, can you lend me your car? I haven't driven for a long time. I was recently transferred to another department and will need to drive myself on field trips. I'm afraid I won't be able to drive, so why don't you let me practice for a while?"
Gu Tongwan hesitated for a moment, but still said, "That's fine, but I'm worried that you might not dare to go on the road after not driving for so long."
Liao Yunyun smiled and said, "You forgot that I passed the driving test on the first try. I had been driving for four years before the end of the world, and I was an experienced driver. Besides, there are not many cars in the base now, and it's not as congested as in the big cities before. I just need to drive slower on the road."
Liao Yunyun, who got the key last, whistled and left immediately. Before leaving, she glanced at Chen Yanxi with a half-smile and whispered, "Don't forget to give me the small desk lamp you promised me."
Gu Tongwan, who had already been sitting in Chen Yanxi's car, had no idea that she had been sold out by her best friend.
Chen Yanxi's jeep is slightly different from hers. It looks ordinary from the outside, but once you get in you'll realize it's been modified. Not only are the doors made of special materials, but the glass is also several times thicker than ordinary windows. It should be a vehicle used when going out on missions.
After getting in the car, Chen Yanxi fastened his seat belt with familiar movements, glanced at her again, and confirmed that she had also fastened her seat belt before driving away.
On the way, Chen Yanxi said, "Don't be too nervous when you are with me."
Gu Tongwan adjusted his posture slightly, then frowned and said, "I don't feel nervous."
Chen Yanxi saw through it but didn't say anything. However, he saw from the rearview mirror Gu Tongwan's stiff posture and the fingers that were fastened on the seat belt moving restlessly and wildly.
"Is it because you haven't seen me for so many years that you think I've changed?"
Gu Tongwan shook his head and answered honestly: "That's not the case. It may be because I am a little shy, so I feel a little uncomfortable."
She kept trying to make excuses for herself, saying that it must be due to incest, and it was definitely not because she had ever dreamed about being with Chen Yanxi...
And how should she explain that Chen Yanxi's face is completely in line with her own aesthetic?
Until now, she still doesn't have much concept about love and family, and just wants to live a stable life alone in the base.
But with the changes that have happened during this period, her thoughts seemed to loosen a little. It’s not that she feels lonely, but she seems to be less resistant to someone trying to break into her life.
In fact, the most important reason was that she was worried that her secret would be exposed by Liao Yunyun.
How could she say that her criteria for choosing a partner were based on Chen Yanxi's face? Even her ex-boyfriend Zhang Heng was the type who looked elegant and aloof like Chen Yanxi.
