"Tong Yao, don't even think about going back..." He leaned over suddenly, pressed his forehead to hers, and spoke word by word, his warm breath smelling of alcohol sprayed on her little face.
This little intimate gesture filled the air with a layer of ambiguity.
But he slowly raised his voice in this rare ambiguity: "You have two choices, either stay with me or die..."
Her body stiffened, and her pupils instantly shrunk a bit.
He, what does this mean?
He just had enough energy to drink, so he untied the obstructive tie at the right time, opened two buttons, and exposed his strong muscles. Tong Yao couldn't help but feel his scalp explode——
This kind of Qin Muyuan is completely unfamiliar to her!
It was so strange that she was at a loss and even fearful...
"Go back, someone wants to kill you, do you know?" He explained slowly, the breath of alcohol on her face filled her nose with the strong aroma of alcohol.
The spicy smell of rum made her feel confused for a moment.
"How do you know?" She was like a drowning person holding on to a piece of driftwood, her cold little hands tightly pulling on his shirt, leaving watermarks and wrinkles on his shirt.
How did he know someone was trying to kill her?
How did he know that the person who killed her was waiting for her in the country?
How...does he know more than she does?
"You have offended an important figure in the political circle, understand?" He patted her shoulder and said, "You should not succeed in this interview."
He investigated the truth behind Tong Zhan's retirement. It was really a complicated political and military struggle that cannot be solved by a simple "report" today.
The more she knows, the closer she gets to the truth, and the closer she gets to death and silence.
"But he is mine..." Tong Yao almost blurted out, Tong Zhan is her biological grandfather!
A word of "family hatred" can push her to the highest point. She has the same Tong family blood flowing in her body, how can she sit idly by and ignore it?
"Your first job? Or your first try? Well?" He didn't think about the deeper meaning and continued after her words, "I know that fresh graduates work hard, but your efforts are in the wrong direction.
…”
She worked herself to a dead end
"I..." Her efforts went in the wrong direction, making her nose sore. It seemed that everything she had done had been completely negated.
It was hard for her to accept it all of a sudden
"Do you know why I threw away your passport?" He continued to speak slowly, closed his tired eyes, and silently traced her eyebrows with his long fingertips, wiping away all the moisture from her eyes.
He feels sorry for her, and feels sorry for her every emotional change
"...I don't know." Her throat was choked, and she answered dully, telling the truth.
At this point, she was resentful: he was so cruel just now. In the car, without any explanation, he snatched her small bag and threw it out the window so coldly and violently, leaving no room for negotiation...
overbearing!
That is the domineering style that belongs to a man, not the gentle and tolerant style that belongs to a brother-in-law.
"Do you want to go around with your ID every day to prove that you are Tong Yao?" Qin Muyuan sighed, finally defeated and told the truth, "Someone is going to hunt you down, do you understand..."
Understand!
Now she understands!
Holding the document and swaggering through the city will only let the pursuer know her location at all times, be able to locate her information, find her as quickly as possible, and aim the gun at her again...
She didn't expect it, but he did
Resentment instantly turned into gratitude
But Tong Yao didn't understand Qin Muyuan's complexity after all: with his power, even if he kept those documents, he could make a fake case of her disappearance!
I chose to throw it away, actually because of the "Mr. Qin" sentence just now... He was angry, so he simply threw it away!
In this way, Tong Yao instantly "understood" the reason for his "anger" just now: it turned out that her uncle would still protect her as before, and that cold-faced Satan look was just a temporary disguise.
Putting the cart before the horse, she still recognized the gentle side he was pretending to be
"I understand!" She suddenly understood, almost bursting into tears and laughing. She wiped her eyes vigorously with a sincere look on her face, "Uncle, thank you."
The eyes that were red from crying were shining with crystal water, and the still clear eyes made Qin Muyuan feel itchy.
And her words "I understand! Uncle, thank you" undoubtedly successfully aroused his anger again. Even a person like Qin Muyuan couldn't help but say a curse word in his heart - you know what the hell!
She sniffed and adjusted her mood quickly. She was about to get up and wash her face, but her wrist was suddenly grabbed by him, and she fell to the bed with her center of gravity unsteady...
"Brother-in-law?" She looked up blankly, just in time to see his eyes stained with an unfamiliar scarlet color, and her heartbeat slowed down a beat.
"Tong Yao, let's talk about the next question now..." He held her chin, with persistence in his eyes, and asked what bothered him most, "Why do you call me 'Mr. Qin'?"
