under the tower

Chapter 60 Don't Ask

He has always had a doubt, that is Chang Huai's motive. It is very strange that he offered to join hands with Ji Xi, Lu Mingxiu and the others to rebel. He is not the same as Lu Mingxiu. Lu Mingxiu and Lu Mingyue have no blood relationship at all. It makes sense, but Chang Huai, as the only child of the Chang family, is already under one person and above ten thousand, enjoying countless glory and wealth, so why would he risk his life to fight against his own father?

The reason must be Chang Wentao.

Something happened to the Chang family, so he had to give up everything at his fingertips.

Ji Xi clenched his hands into fists.

From Yan Yi's stern expression, Ji Xi knew that he had acquiesced.

Beicheng... The Beicheng base is really a den of dragons and tigers. This largest survival base in human history, a beacon of hope and civilization, has completely become a den of abnormal people!

For a moment, an extremely pessimistic thought flashed in Ji Xi's mind. Is there really any salvation in this apocalypse?

No one knows, maybe they struggled hard, and they will eventually die nameless, just for a hopeless future.

Ji Xi closed his eyes, no wonder Yan Yi's expression is so serious and hesitant, is he also afraid of this reality?

Yanyi came over and patted Ji Xi's head: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

He said it again.

But this time, Ji Xi didn't feel comforted or at ease, but noticed more things under the ice that he couldn't see.

Ji Xi opened his eyes, and he pulled the man's broad palm, leaving a hideous brown scar in the center of the back of that hand, which was left after he blocked the knife with his bare hands at that time, and it will never fade away.

"I asked Liu Meng to have dinner today." He suddenly said something insignificant, but then the subject immediately changed back, Ji Xi knew that Yan Yi would understand what he meant, "Can you tell me, what exactly do you want?" What are you doing?"

Yan Yi was silent for a long time, then said softly: "She told me."

This is tantamount to directly acknowledging the extraordinary cooperative relationship between him and Bai Qihuan and Liu Meng - a lowly soldier in the army, and the superior commander.

Ji Xi unconsciously squeezed his hand hard, looking at him with burning eyes.

However, Yan Yi firmly said two words: "Sorry."

Ji Xi opened her eyes wide, feeling cold in her heart.

"Even if you go to Liu Meng and ask her, she won't say anything." Yan Yi stated the fact calmly, "Because I can't tell you."

Ji Xi opened his mouth dully, his voice hoarse: "...why?"

He hurriedly asked: "Are you going to kill Chang Wentao or something? I have nothing against it. He is a deformed person. My purpose is the same as yours. I can still help..."

Yan Yi's rough palm touched his face, as if he was perfunctory or echoing: "Well, don't ask."

Ji Xi stared at him blankly, her eyes hurt.

"You..." he said dryly, "are you determined to hide it from me?"

"Ah."

"Can't say anything? Not at all?"

"Yeah." Yan Yi looked down at him with calm and almost compassionate eyes, "You can go see Liu Meng, I won't interfere."

Ji Xi drooped his head and smiled wryly.

"Well, I won't ask her." Ji Xi said sharply, "You have already decided, what can I do?"

Yan Yi just caressed his face, his movements were very gentle, without the slightest sign of anger.

Ji Xi rubbed against his palm involuntarily, and said in a low voice, "I don't want to quarrel with you."

"I don't want to either." Yan Yi said, "Good boy."

Ji Xi closed her eyes, lowered her head and took a bite of her meal, Yan Yi also returned to the seat opposite.

They continued to eat their food, which had cooled a little, as if nothing had happened.

Before going to bed, Yan Yi gave Ji Xi another anti-inflammatory drug.

He stretched his fingers into the tight and fiery inner wall, and spread the ointment between the smoothed folds, without intentionally teasing, but Ji Xi became agitated, the scene where he was nailed to the bed by this man last night and fucked hard The scene echoed in front of his eyes, his face was blushing, and he looked at Yan Yi, who was giving him medicine, with eyes full of spring water.

Yan Yi smiled and patted him: "I won't touch you today, go to bed early."

"Oh..." Ji Xi elongated his voice like a rascal, raised his round and fair buttocks high, "Then take out your hands."

Yan Yi flicked his forehead, and Ji Xi let out an exaggerated "ow" as if in pain.

After applying the medicine, Yan Yi really took out his finger without any hesitation.

Ji Xi pursed her mouth, and also lay down in the quilt, into his arms.

A night without dreams.

Now that she had agreed to Liu Meng, Ji Xi did not break the appointment in the end. She picked a restaurant near Wanshen District, and Ji Xi met her at the entrance of the restaurant on time at noon that day.

After the crisis was over, Yanyi didn't restrict Ji Xi's movements anymore. He could come and go as he wanted, or move back to his room at any time, but Ji Xi obviously planned to stay there.

The weather was very hot, and Ji Xi was wearing a lead gray thin shirt, while Liu Meng even put on delicate makeup to meet him, and wore a slim black long skirt, which outlined the unique curves of a woman's body .

She was tall, half a head taller than Ji Xi after wearing the pointed high heels. Ji Xi stood next to her, just like a big sister with her immature brother.

"Hi." Liu Meng greeted him warmly.

Ji Xi also greeted, politely said: "You look beautiful today."

Being taught how to treat women as a gentleman is something he has carved into his bones, and when he faces Liu Meng, he will naturally show another mask of his masculine demeanor.

"Thank you." Liu Meng smiled generously, with red lips and white teeth, she looked radiant, causing passers-by to stare sideways, "The little handsome guy has such a sweet mouth."

The waiter at the entrance of the restaurant opened the door for them, Ji Xi made a gesture of invitation, signaling Liu Meng to go in first, and he followed behind.

Liu Meng made a seat, and they sat down by the window. Outside was a courtyard, with lush grass and a small artificial lake, which made people feel good.

The glass tabletop of this store is a natural electronic screen, on which is played a dynamic electronic screen of water and light, making the glass seem to flow in a real way, and lines of beautiful and dignified words emerge in it, which says today's dishes.

Ji Xi asked, "What do you want to eat?"

Liu Meng smiled: "You can just order, I just want a fruit salad."

Ji Xi raised her eyebrows: "Losing weight?"

"Yes."

"You're already very thin."

Liu Meng flicked her neatly arranged wavy hair, and said casually: "For women, body management is endless."

Ji Xi smiled helplessly.

He ordered a pasta with porcini mushrooms, a salad for Liu Meng, and a basket of onion rings.

After ordering, Liu Meng asked with a smile, "Xiao Lu, how old are you this year?"

Ji Xixin said that he knew it, and it really was waiting for him here.

But for some reason, he didn't feel offended by this kind of questioning. On the contrary, his intuition told him that Liu Meng was friendly. She took great pains to invite him out for dinner even though she was trying to lose weight. It seemed that it was just out of innocence The... Curiosity.

So he replied honestly: "Twenty."

"Wow, so young." Liu Meng blinked her eyes and sighed in distress, "Oh, I'm going to be on my way in a flash."

Ji Xi smiled and said, "I can't tell."

"Then how did you and old... Brother Yan meet?"

Ji Xi paused slightly: "I know him in the army." He added, "I'm the deputy company commander, and he's my new recruit."

"Oh? Really?" Liu Meng smiled slightly and said leisurely, "Why did I hear Lao Bai say that he took you to the Wuchang factory before he joined the army? Are you looking into something?"

Ji Xi froze.

"Don't be nervous." Liu Meng said with a relaxed expression, "I'm just asking casually, I won't say anything."

She looked around, and said to Ji Xi in a mysterious tone: "This store is all our own, and it won't be leaked, just don't worry."

Ji Xi frowned slightly: "I was investigating some things myself, and I asked him to take me there, and it has nothing to do with him."

Liu Meng blinked her big eyes with perfect makeup, and elongated the end of the sentence meaningfully: "Is that so—"

Ji Xi asked back: "How did you meet him?"

Liu Meng smiled sweetly: "Hey, this is even simpler. At that time, he found Lao Bai by himself and volunteered to join Lao Bai. I and Lao Bai are boyfriend and girlfriend, so we met once."

This is of course not the truth, but Ji Xi already knew that Liu Meng would lie, so he was not very disappointed.

"Can't tell him" seems to be some kind of principled issue, not only Yanyi, but also everyone around him kept his mouth shut in an almost stubborn way.

This is so unfair, even if Ji Xi is willing to tell everything frankly and answer all her questions, she will never get the answer she wants.

This frustration made him feel a little frustrated, so he simply fell silent.

The salad and pasta came up soon, Ji Xi picked up the plate, buried her head in eating, and took every bite, without giving Liu Meng any chance to ask questions.

Liu Meng is a very sensitive woman, she naturally saw that Ji Xi was not in high spirits, but she smiled without thinking too much, like an elder forgiving a younger generation.

She was even thinking in her heart, who is more difficult to deal with, her bad-tempered boss who is always black-faced, or this prickly little guy who is good at disguising himself.

Don't the two of them usually fight when they disagree?

When the onion rings came, Ji Xi politely invited Liu Meng to eat with her. Instead of refusing, she raised her fork and swallowed a piece of junk food full of fried fat, fully expressing her sincerity.

Ji Xi looked at her hesitantly.

"Why on earth did you invite me to dinner?"

Just to ask about irrelevant topics?

Ji Xi really had such a question, he didn't understand what kind of value he had produced in himself that could make Liu Meng have such a strong curiosity about him.

"Ok?"

Probably because Ji Xi looked too puzzled, Liu Meng chewed onion rings, and said naturally, "Let's have a meal together and make friends."

She said: "You really don't need to be so vigilant about me, just to have a meal, if I ask some questions that you don't want to answer, just don't answer."

Ji Xi blinked.

For Liu Meng, this seems to be a very normal thing.

Just because of this?

It may be due to the talent of a woman, Liu Meng is quite good at observing his emotions, she smiled kindly: "Don't be nervous, take your time."

For Ji Xi, who had little contact with outsiders since he was a child, he is really a social waste.

He will put on airs, drink wine and chat with those elites who also have the same purpose of profit on glamorous occasions, but he will not use his true feelings to make friends with each other at a simple dinner table.

Perhaps because of Liu Meng's words, he tried his best to relax himself.

After that, the atmosphere at the dinner table gradually became harmonious.

Liu Meng is obviously a talkative woman, and they talked about the abnormal weather in Beicheng, the troublesome approval system of the army, the noisy bars in the apartment building at night, etc.

After lunch, Ji Xi took the initiative to pay the bill, but Liu Meng insisted on having an affair with him, so Ji Xi didn't insist anymore.

Just kidding, that's the boss's wife, she doesn't dare to eat for free.

Ji Xi asked: "Shall I take you back?"

"I still have a job in the future." Liu Meng smiled, "Just send it to the shuttle station."

Ji Xi nodded.

They came out of the restaurant together and walked to the nearest station.

There was a landslide on the side of the road at the station, Ji Xi didn't pay attention, staggered a little, and accidentally stimulated the aching nerves inside, he had tossed and turned with Yan Yi last night, and woke up in the morning with a sore back, in order not to let the Liu Meng could see that he was trying his best to endure the whole process.

He subconsciously supported his waist, and Liu Meng immediately asked with concern: "Are you okay? There is a small step here, and I almost didn't see it just now."

Ji Xi forced a smile: "It's okay."

After watching Ji Xi leave with a slightly distorted posture, Liu Meng certainly understood what was going on, and dialed the smart assistant as soon as she got in the car.

"Old Bai." She said to the person on the other end in a very excited and gloating tone, "I think our boss is completely screwed this time."

"..." Bai Qihuan on the other end supported his forehead with a headache on his face.

But his surname is Lu.

Despite amnesia, the boss doesn't know he's going to kill them all with his own hands in the end, right?Such an important matter, he didn't mention it in the materials he prepared for himself, right?

But what if the boss knew it clearly, but still fell into it without hesitation?

What will they do then?

Bai Qihuan, who was as worried as an old father, fell into a deep anxiety.
