Chu Qingxue was so upset that she simply fell asleep on the table. Seeing her tired look, Sheng Yanxuan felt a little regretful.
If he had known it earlier, he should not have let her know in advance. Now seeing Chu Qingxue's anxious look, Sheng Yanxuan felt distressed and annoyed, and wished he could bear all the pain for her.
Sheng Yanxuan sighed softly, took off his suit jacket and covered Chu Qingxue to prevent her from catching a cold.
Night fell, the bustling city was brightly lit, and it was almost seven o'clock when Chu Qingxue woke up in a daze.
Chu Qingxue woke up with hazy eyes. She rubbed her eyes. She looked around and found that she was sleeping in Sheng Yanxuan's lounge.
Where is this? Chu Qingxue sat up in confusion. Just as she lifted the quilt and was about to get out of bed, her steps suddenly stagnated. She suddenly found Sheng Yanxuan sitting on the sofa, fully dressed.
"Are you awake? Drink a glass of water to warm your stomach first." Sheng Yanxuan handed a glass of warm boiled water to Chu Qingxue.
Chu Qingxue stared at Sheng Yanxuan blankly, her mind was in a blur, and she hadn't figured out the situation yet.
How long had I been sleeping? It was already dark outside.
"You've been waiting for me for a long time, right? I'm sorry... you could actually wake me up." Chu Qingxue felt a sense of guilt in her heart. She reached out to take the water glass from Sheng Yanxuan's hand and took a sip.
Sheng Yanxuan shook his head, "It's okay. You can rest for a while if you want."
She didn't dare lie down so shamelessly and take a nap!
"I'm fine, are you done? Let's go home!" Chu Qingxue took Sheng Yanxuan's hand and looked up at him.
Sheng Yanxuan smiled faintly, led Chu Qingxue out, and called Zheng Min by the way to arrange for someone to get ready.
Chu Qingxue was wearing a windbreaker and when she followed Sheng Yanxuan out, the cold north wind made her cheeks hurt.
Looking at Sheng Yanxuan's tall and straight back, Chu Qingxue suddenly felt that this man was very reliable. She believed that as long as he was there, he would withstand even if the sky fell.
"What are you thinking about?" Sheng Yanxuan looked sideways at Chu Qingxue, his eyes as gentle as water.
Chu Qingxue raised her head and glanced at the sky. It was late at night, and the stars were hanging in the sky, shining with silvery white light. It was really beautiful.
"I was thinking about what you said."
"Yeah." Sheng Yanxuan nodded.
The two of them walked slowly along the road, and the neon lights on the street reflected their backs walking hand in hand, making them look particularly intimate.
"Could it be that the two of us came out too late and ruined her plan? Then we don't know when her next action will be, and the danger of not being able to catch anything is always there." Chu Qingxue said worriedly.
In order to give Wang Meimei a chance to take advantage of the situation, they deliberately did not drive home themselves, but asked the driver to wait at the coffee shop opposite.
During this distance, Wang Meimei has too many opportunities to harm Chu Qingxue.
But now it has not appeared for a long time. Chu Qingxue's originally worried heart has relaxed a lot, but she has to reconsider this issue.
"She will always show up." Sheng Yanxuan held Chu Qingxue's hand tightly. He believed that as long as Wang Meimei had the courage to take action, sooner or later she would be exposed.
The cold wind was so strong that Chu Qingxue shrank her neck from the cold and her ears were red. She couldn't help but rub her arms, "It's so cold!"
There were only two people on this small road, Sheng Yanxuan and Chu Qingxue. The street lamp illuminated them from behind, and their shadows stretched long in front.
Chu Qingxue looked at the hands intertwined between herself and Sheng Yanxuan, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and her heart was filled with sweetness.
The cold wind stirred up the fallen leaves on the ground and fluttered in the air, just like two restless hearts at this time.
But Chu Qingxue stared at the shadow on the ground and noticed something was wrong. There seemed to be an extra shadow of a person!
At first she wondered if she was dazzled, but when she glanced at Sheng Yanxuan beside her with her peripheral vision, she confirmed that it was not an hallucination, and that there really was an extra person!
Suddenly, every cell in her body became alert. Chu Qingxue quietly turned her head to look at the shadow behind her with her peripheral vision, and sure enough, she saw someone's shoes.
Chu Qingxue swallowed her saliva, her legs felt weak, and she felt a creepy feeling.
Is it Wang Meimei?
Or a pedestrian on the road?
She trembled and tugged on Sheng Yanxuan's sleeves, her voice trembling a little, and whispered: "Someone..."
The person behind him walked without making any movement, and even his breathing was deliberately lowered. Chu Qingxue became even more uneasy. Who is this person? Could it be a ghost?
Thinking about it, Chu Qingxue couldn't help but move a few steps closer to Sheng Yanxuan.
Who is this person and why is he hiding here and peeping? The more Chu Qingxue thought about it, the more scared she felt, and her body was trembling.
She gritted her teeth and held on, trying not to look so nervous. She couldn't let the person notice anything unusual, otherwise the person would definitely run away!
Chu Qingxue took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, trying to calm down her mood.
Sheng Yanxuan felt Chu Qingxue's hold on his hand getting stronger and stronger, and his fingers rubbed the back of her hand to calm her down.
Chu Qingxue felt the warm touch coming from her palm, and her heart instantly calmed down.
Sheng Yanxuan took out his mobile phone and lowered his head to send a message to Zheng Min asking.
"Did you see something in her hand?"
Zheng Min looked at the street opposite with his binoculars. Wang Meimei was only two steps away from Sheng Yanxuan and Chu Qingxue, with murderous eyes in her eyes, obviously wanting to harm them.
"She didn't hold anything in her hand, but she kept her hand in her down jacket. It's not like she was holding a knife. She's observing you. Please pay attention."
After reading Zheng Min's report, Sheng Yanxuan frowned.
If it can't be a knife, what could it be?
I looked ahead and saw that there was a broken streetlight in front of me. It would light up and then go dark, making it difficult to see the traffic conditions on the road.
He hesitated for a moment and decided to take a risk. If Wang Meimei was really injured, he would not be at a loss, at least he could solve this safety hazard.
He turned to look at Chu Qingxue, smiled, and gently rubbed her hair. The look in her eyes was like an instruction before leaving, telling her not to worry.
This look made Chu Qingxue's heart skip a beat, and she understood that this was Sheng Yanxuan's attempt to block this disaster for her.
She was breathing heavily, with tears in her eyes, and shook her head not wanting Sheng Yanxuan to be in danger.
He opened his mouth and whispered softly.
"No, you can't." Her tone was full of panic and fear. She was afraid that Sheng Yanxuan would be hurt.
Seeing that she was so worried and afraid of him, Sheng Yanxuan chuckled lightly and leaned into Chu Qingxue's ear, "Fool, don't think too much."
After that, he stood up straight and pulled Chu Qingxue forward.
After walking under the broken street lamp, Chu Qingxue's breathing quickened and she tightened her breath every time the street lamp went out for a short period of time.
Suddenly, the street lights went out completely and the surrounding area fell into darkness.
Chu Qingxue's heartbeat suddenly stopped. She clutched Sheng Yanxuan's hand tightly, and her whole body became extremely stiff.
