When Minx was harassed by Lin Yun'an at the overhead pedestrian crossing near the Shangri-La Hotel, she said in front of many classmates that I was her boyfriend. So many people who remembered what I looked like recognized me immediately from the news photos yesterday.
Because of this, Minx's phone never stopped ringing. Many of her friends said that her boyfriend was cheating on her, and that he was not just cheating on her with one woman but two... Minx was cold and arrogant in front of her friends, how would she be able to bear such ridicule? That was why she ignored everything and called me...
Originally, Minx didn't know about Dong Xiaoye being assigned to protect me. She didn't call me because she was worried that contacting me would attract the attention of the police and cause trouble to me. But after she recognized that one of my girlfriends from the news photos was Dong Xiaoye, this worry naturally turned into anger...
I didn't know how Dong Xiaoye appeased Minx's anger in the end, because she asked me to leave the room. But from the way Minx acted sweetly and coquettishly towards me afterward as if nothing had happened, it was not difficult to guess what she told her. She must have told her that the police sent her to protect me out of fear that Gong Fanlin might retaliate against me, and the 'girlfriend' incident was a complete misunderstanding...
Dong Xiaoye would never tell Minx about Xu Heng's matter. Of course, she didn't think Xiao Yike would have anything to do with Xu Heng, But she didn't believe that Xiao Yike's father had nothing to do with Xu Heng's case. However, from my point of view, no matter how terrible Minx's father was, she was always innocent. But Sister Tiger was suspicious of Xiao Yike simply because of this. It proved that she had a prejudice against Xiao Yike. That was why I was not happy.
Seeing that I didn't speak, Dong Xiaoye pouted her mouth and said, "I also changed the settings of your mobile phone. I know you have found out already, so if you want to settle the account with me, you can just settle it together."
"You mean the settings of answering the phone call in the speaker mode?"
"Mhm," Dong Xiaoye said with an expression as if she gave up hiding everything from me: "The only explanation I can give you is: it's a task, an order, and it's related to a case. My job is not only to protect you, but also to monitor you, and make sure that you don't hide any secrets from me…"
Dong Xiaoye was clearly angry with me. I chuckled: "It's okay, I don't have any secrets anyway."
Sister Tiger was a little surprised, "I've invaded your privacy so much, but you're not angry?"
"Not angry," in fact After Chu Yuan and Dongfang denied touching my cell phone, I already guessed that it was Dong Xiaoye, "I'm the kind of person who has toxic positivity. So not only am I not angry, but I actually feel quite fortunate after comparing you to Yike. You only changed the settings of my phone, which proves that the police did not bug my phone. In a way, it means that they trust us, is it not? But I hope you can tell me in advance if there is anything next time. Just based on our relationship, you think I would make it difficult for you?"
It was not that I had no opinion about it. However, even if I scolded Dong Xiaoye, it wouldn't change anything. It would only make it difficult for her.
"Chu Nan, I really want to know when you will get angry. Not for others, but for myself..." Dong Xiaoye was silent for a moment, then suddenly said such a sentence.
I was stunned for a while, then smiled: "Don't flatter me. You made it sound like I am being selfless."
"Are you not? You are angry at me because of what happened to Xiao Yike. But when the same thing happens to you, you act like you don't care about it at all."
"No. There is a kind of selflessness, which is actually an extreme manifestation of selfishness," I also wondered why I would say such a thing, "A truly selfless person will think that other people's problems are their problems. But the extremely selfish person will only think that way when other people are their people. The biggest difference between the former and the latter is that the former will not choose who to help, while the latter will only help those they want to help... I think I am the latter kind of person."
Dong Xiaoye glanced at me, then looked at the car in front of her, and continued to drive as the traffic was just cleared. After a while, she snorted softly, "No wonder you only help girls. So that's what you are really thinking..."
I almost choked on my saliva, "Can you not misinterpret what I mean? I mean, I always feel that other people depend on me and think I have a responsibility to protect them... I just think that I'm not as selfish as you say I am. I'm just being slightly modest, but you made it sound like I have ulterior motives "
"You do have," Dong Xiaoye said in a low voice as her face blushed inexplicably, "The kind of selfishness you have is more like narcissism, a silent narcissism. In fact, sometimes it may be better to tell other people what you have in your mind. Otherwise, if the person you are looking after doesn't understand your thoughts, it will be more troublesome..."
Tell other people what I have in my mind? Who doesn't understand my thoughts? And who will feel troubled? I was dazed, seemingly understanding what Dong Xiaoye said but wasn't completely sure...
"Do you think that I'm not angry at you because I'm looking after your feelings?"
Dong Xiaoye didn't deny it, deliberately not looking at me, "Not just this..."
Not just this? Are there any other thoughts that I have in my mind that I didn't tell her? A thought suddenly flashed past my mind, causing my voice to tremble, "Xiaoye, you… the night when you got drunk… you actually remember everything, right?"
"What?" Dong Xiaoye said calmly, but the car shook suddenly, almost throwing me out of the window...
As expected! Looking at Dong Xiaoye's blushing pretty face, I smiled embarrassedly, "Hmm, thank you..."
Dong Xiaoye was dazed, "Thank me for what?"
"Your first kiss..."
"What first kiss!? I'm telling you, if you talk nonsense again, I will kick you out of the car!"
"Why? Wait! No! Look at the car, look at the car! You are driving at the moment. Pay attention, okay! Do you know how to drive safely?!"
"If you want me to drive safely, then don't always try to find ways to tease me!"
"Tease you? Wasn't it you who said that I should tell other people what I have in my mind…"
"I didn't ask you to say anything! How can you take what people did when they were drunk seriously?" As soon as Dong Xiaoye finished, she was stunned by her own words.
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You really remember..."
Knowing that she couldn't hide it anymore, Dong Xiaoye was so angry to a point that she almost burst into tears, "Why did you mention it?! Just to embarrass me?!"
"What exactly do you want me to do?! It was you who wanted me to tell you what I have in my mind. But now, you don't want me to say it?"
"I want to kick you out of the car and kill you!"
"Are you serious? Ah! What the hell, do you really want to kill me!? You are a policewoman… Fuck stop kicking me! I will fight back if you don't stop! Don't think you are a woman so I won't hit you!"
"Go ahead! Hit me! Anyway, I don't want to live anymore! After I kill you, I'll commit suicide!!"
"If you want to die for love, that's fine by me, but I'm still very young. I don't want to die so soon."
"You, you, shut up! Otherwise, I'll stitch up your stupid mouth. "
"My mouth is stupid? Then why did you kiss it?"
"I, I, I'm seriously gonna kill you!"
...
The driver who was overtaking from the side of us was stunned and almost crashed into the rear of the car in front when he saw what happened in the police car.
In the police car next to him, a beautiful female driver's right foot, which should have stepped on the accelerator, was now tightly pressed on the face of the handsome guy in the front passenger seat, and the handsome guy was screaming miserably, trying his best not to be kicked out of the car that was moving at 50 km/h by the beauty...
…...
As soon as I entered Fengchang, I felt that something wasn't right. After taking a few steps, I suddenly turned back, only to see the embarrassed faces of the people who were pointing at me behind my back. At that time, I knew immediately what was going on. It was all that damn entertainment news' fault.
Sure enough, as soon as I stepped into the investment department, Brother Wei ran towards me with a copy of yesterday's newspaper, and shouted excitedly, "Brother Nan, you are on the news! Is this you? Yes, it must be, I recognize this outfit! I didn't expect you to have dinner with Wu Lefeng that night. Damn, you are so disloyal. You didn't even tell me when you asked me to pick you up. If I knew, I would have asked him for an autograph! "
"Yang Wei, move!" Several male colleagues of mine pushed Yang Wei away with a murderous aura as if they wanted to kill me, forcing me to take two steps back, "Chu Nan, we have something to ask you. If you don't tell us honestly, you know what will happen!"
Although they said that, they looked like they wanted to beat me up instead of asking me questions.
Have I offended anyone recently? Let alone Dong Xiaoye, I myself also didn't know what was going on...
