    The next day, Qiao Qiao slept until noon.

    After she separated from Cheng Xiu, she hadn’t slept so peacefully for a long time, so she slept extremely deeply without even a dream.

    Turning over and looking into the smiling eyes of a certain beauty, Qiao Qiao was stunned for a few seconds before his slow brain realized what was going on.

    “Are you awake?” Zhou Yuanchuan lay on his side next to her, leaning half of his body to look at her, “You sleep so soundly.”

    Qiao Qiao rubbed his eyes and sat up: “Mr. Zhou, when did you wake up?”

    “I just woke up not long ago and I’ve been looking at you.”

    Qiao Qiao quickly touched the corner of his mouth. Fortunately, he was not seen drooling in embarrassment.

    “Mr. Zhou, what time did you go to bed last night? Are you finished with your work?” She was quite embarrassed, “I fell unconscious after I lay down…”

    “Don’t worry about me.” The man came over and kissed the corner of Qiao Qiao’s mouth, “I slept well and my body has recovered – do you want to check it out?”

    Qiao Qiao glanced at a ridged area under the sheets and waved his hands repeatedly: “No, no, no.”

    The young man’s expression immediately turned pitiful: “Didn’t we agree last night…”

    “I only said it was today, not now!” Qiao Qiao jumped out of bed, “Okay, okay, I’m going to get up!”

    “Xiao Qiao…”

    Hearing this sound mixed with resentment and grievance, Qiao Qiao’s legs seemed to have taken root and could no longer be pulled out.She turned around, and Zhou Yuanchuan just looked at him silently, without saying a word, but it was worth a thousand words.

    “W-How about tonight?” I had to bite the bullet and make up my mind.

    “No.” The man turned his head away and bit his lower lip slightly, “If you don’t want to, forget it. I don’t want to be the bad guy who forces you.”

    “No force, no force!” Qiao Qiao smiled uglier than crying, “I, I volunteered.”

    “Really?” Zhou Yuanchuan smiled brightly, “Then I’ll wait for you.”

    Wow, wow, the prey that wants to be eaten has to jump into the iron pot on its own initiative. It is simply unreasonable.

    After washing up, the meal ordered by Zhou Yuanchuan was also delivered. Qiao Qiao was thinking about what happened in the afternoon, and put down his chopsticks after putting a hastily on the mat.

    Seeing Zhou Yuanchuan start to yawn again, she knew that the man was still in a state of exhaustion, so she strongly asked him to catch up on some sleep in the afternoon. Zhou Yuanchuan also knew that the business trip for several days had exhausted his body, so he obediently lay down and continued to sleep.

    The hour hand reached 3:30 in the afternoon. Qiao Qiao felt that it was almost done, so he walked out of the hotel, took a taxi and went straight to Yanyang School.

    It wasn’t time for school to end yet, but there were already many luxury cars waiting outside the school, all of them were nanny drivers who came to pick up their children. Qiao Qiao was looking around when she felt someone tap her on the shoulder. When she turned around, Zhang Xiaodong, dressed in casual clothes, was looking at her with a smile.

    “Miss Qiao, are you looking for me?”

    “Captain Zhang!” Qiao Qiao was startled, “Why do you make no sound when you walk?”

    “I’m sorry, it’s an occupational disease that can’t be corrected in a while.” Zhang Xiaodong looked around and whispered, “Let’s talk in another place.”

    Qiao Qiao thought that the so-called “changing places” would at most mean finding a secluded place to chat in detail. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiaodong took her into a high-rise building opposite the school.

    “We rented this apartment.” Zhang Xiaodong said this in a very ordinary tone, as if he was renting not an apartment but a game CD, “The view here is good.”

    Qiao Qiao walked to the window and looked down. The view was not good. It was facing the school entrance. Could it be bad?

    She saw something like a telescope placed by the window and asked, “What is this for?”

    The young man next to him said enthusiastically: “Investigation equipment, with it, you can clearly see how many nose hairs the target person has.”

    Qiao Qiao was silent for a moment.

    She pulled Zhang Xiaodong aside and whispered: “Captain Zhang, have you misunderstood what I meant… I just wanted to scare a few children, not kill anyone.”

    “Haha, don’t worry, I know it.” Zhang Xiaodong said, taking a class photo that he got from somewhere, “please point out to me which brats they are.”

    Qiao Qiao looked at the photo and suddenly felt like he was identifying the victim…

    “This…and this, plus this little fat guy.”

    “Yes, I understand.” Zhang Xiaodong circled the three of them with a pen and said with a smile, “Miss Qiao, please take a rest and leave the rest to us.”

    “Eh? I won’t participate?”

    “Haha, Miss Qiao, don’t be joking. If you do this trivial matter yourself, our Ministry of National Security will have no place to show its face.”

    Zhang Xiaodong’s tone allowed no resistance, so Qiao Qiao had no choice but to obey.

    After a while, school time came and the children rushed out of the school gate.Qiao Qiao stared at the telescope-like instrument, still doubting whether he could really see the nose hairs, when he heard someone suddenly say: “The target has appeared.”

    Zhang Xiaodong also went over and took a look: “Yes, these are the kids. Send a message to the second team to intercept them.”

    Qiao Qiao: “…”

    They were actually divided into groups in a serious manner.

    “Is this okay?” Qiao Qiao was a little worried, “If you do this at the school gate, if their parents find out…”

    “We won’t let them leave the school.” Zhang Xiaodong grinned, “We have stepped on it a long time ago. There is a small forest in the southeast corner of the campus, which is perfect for this.”

    Qiao Qiao: “…”

    Are you really a national security team member and not a gangster?Why are you so skilled!

    “Want to take a look?” Zhang Xiaodong gave up his seat, “If you’re lucky and there are no obstacles, you can watch the whole thing here.”

    After hearing this, Qiao Qiao moved his eyes close to the window of the telescope.

    The young man next to her helped her adjust the parameters, and her blurry vision gradually became clearer. She saw a little girl sitting on the curb opposite. She was lowering her head and fiddling with her mobile phone. What was outrageous was that Qiao Qiao could see the content on the mobile phone screen clearly.

    It turns out that ‘you can even see the nose hairs’ was not just a casual comment.

    Feeling that his field of vision began to move to the left, Qiao Qiao knew that the person next to him had helped him adjust his direction. Now that the magnification was so large, finding someone without help would be like finding a needle in a haystack.

    “Did you see them?”

    Qiao Qiao’s eyes widened: “Wearing black clothes?”

    “Yes.”

    Qiao Qiao counted a total of four men in black. They blocked the three children in the clearing of the grove. Fortunately, it was winter and there were no leaves to block her, so she could see clearly.

    The three children did not seem to be afraid at all, and the leader even tried to escape. Of course, the three of them were no match for these special forces, but the soldiers did not intend to take any serious action. Qiao Qiao saw that their lips were moving, and they should be trying to persuade them with kind words.

    After persuading for a while, a child suddenly took out a folding knife from his pocket and pounced on the man in black on the far left. The level of this sneak attack was quite low. The person who was attacked easily dodged, but this behavior really angered these hot-tempered special forces.

    Qiao Qiao didn’t even see what was happening. The child holding the knife was grabbed by the neck and lifted up. The knife also fell to the ground and was broken by another soldier.

    There was no suspense in the rest of the story. Since Yong didn’t understand what he was saying, he had no choice but to use his fists. Although they didn’t really hit him, the three children were frightened and ran away crying in the end.

    “Mission accomplished.” Zhang Xiaodong hung up the phone, “Ms. Qiao, these children should not dare to cause trouble again in the future.”

    That’s for sure…

    Qiao Qiao wiped his sweat secretly. No matter how courageous he was, he was frightened to have three big children being dealt with like this. He hoped it would not leave any shadow.

    “Thank you for your hard work, shall I treat you to dinner?”

    Zhang Xiaodong smiled bitterly: “Miss Qiao, please don’t say such things. We don’t dare to take up your time. Your time belongs to Professor Zhou.”

    “Uh…”

    Zhang Xiaodong looked at his watch and said, “It’s getting late. You should go back quickly, otherwise I won’t be able to explain to Professor Zhou.”

    From the look on his face, he really didn’t want Qiao Qiao to stay any longer and wanted to kick her away right away.

    “But I have to express my feelings, right?”

    Zhang Xiaodong coughed lightly when he heard this: “As long as you can keep Professor Zhou in a good mood, you have done me a great favor.”

    Qiao Qiao was stunned for a moment: “Hey, is he still in a bad mood?”

    After saying this, she saw everyone in the room showing a complicated expression.

    “You are so lucky.” Zhang Xiaodong’s tone could not be said to be one of envy or sigh.

    Back at the hotel, Zhou Yuanchuan was still sleeping. Qiao Qiao tried his best to keep his footsteps quiet, but he still woke him up.

    “You’re back?” The young man rubbed his eyes and said in a daze, “How’s it going?”

    “It’s done, no one will dare to bully Yan Yang anymore.”

    Zhou Yuanchuan waved to her, and Qiao Qiao walked over. The man immediately hugged her lovingly, and buried his face in the crook of her neck and sniffed her, “I don’t care about Yanyang, I only care about you.”

    Qiao Qiao thought to himself, don’t let Yan Yang hear it, be careful if he pulls out your oxygen tube in the future.

    “Then…is that okay?” Zhou Yuanchuan’s hand gradually slid down and gently touched Qiao Qiao’s lower back, “I finally waited until you came back.”

    Ah this.

    She almost forgot about it.

    “…How about eating first.”

    “I can’t wait to eat.” Zhou Yuanchuan’s eyes were dark, and his hands kept unbuttoning Qiao Qiao’s clothes, “My body feels like I have a fever——”

    At this time, Zhou Yuanchuan’s cell phone suddenly rang.

    The man only glanced sideways and paid no attention.But the bell was very persistent and it rang for several rounds before it stopped.

    “No one can disturb us tonight.”

    As soon as he finished speaking, Qiao Qiao’s cell phone rang.

    “No answer allowed.”

    “No, what if there’s an emergency?” Qiao Qiao took the opportunity to jump away from him and hurriedly pressed the answer button, “Hello?”

    “Ms. Qiao.” Zhang Xiaodong’s rich voice came from the microphone, his tone was serious, “Are you and Professor Zhou together?”

    “Yes. What’s wrong?”

    “The data we have here shows that Professor Zhou is having a fever.”

    Qiao Qiao subconsciously glanced back at Zhou Yuanchuan, and then realized that his cheeks were indeed unnaturally red.

    “It should be fatigue fever. Professor Zhou will suffer from this condition whenever he is tired. He does not need to take medicine or injections, but he must have a good rest.”

    “Oh.” Qiao Qiao was a little confused.

    “Miss Qiao, you may not understand what I mean.” Zhang Xiaodong emphasized, “In other words, Professor Zhou can’t do any ‘exercise’ except sleeping tonight.”

    “Is it Zhang Xiaodong’s call?” Zhou Yuanchuan struggled to get out of bed, “Just hang up and leave him alone.”

    “But…”

    Zhang Xiaodong seemed to be quite afraid of Zhou Yuanchuan, and quickly added: “Ms. Qiao, Professor Zhou’s body belongs to the state. I hope you will not do anything that damages the national property.”

    Qiao Qiao wanted to ask again, but there was only a busy tone of ‘beep–‘ on the phone.

    What’s going on?

    Does this mean that if something happens to her and Zhou Yuanchuan tonight, will it be considered a crime???
