Take It Easy

Chapter 29



Chapter 28 – Like

I said, although you are skinny, kid, I like it very much.

Zhou Yi froze for a few seconds, quietly rolled his fingers around the corner of his clothes, and pretended to be calm and said, “Is there any?”

“Why are you laughing without you!” An Xiang was sad and indignant, “The corners of your mouth are almost turned up, don’t you know?”

Zhou Yi seriously shook his head, “I don’t know…”

An Xiang clutched his chest in pain and fell back, saying, “I’m dead, there’s no need to rescue me.”

“Okay…” Zhou Yi nodded, and covered An Xiang’s face with a blank sheet of paper.

An Xiang became peaceful again.

Really not, that is to say, how can people’s hearts grow in the middle?

Zhou Yi leaned back in the chair and looked at the notebook on the desk for a while, then turned the phone over and pressed the curled corner.

“You came so early today?” Mu Qinglin’s voice suddenly came from the door, as if greeting a colleague.

Zhou Yi glanced lightly along the end of his eyes immediately, and saw a capable woman in a suit handing Mu Qinglin a paper cup.

Roughly judging the appearance, it was the same as the one she pinched and threw into the trash can last night.

“Knowing that you stay up all night, I came here early to deliver supplies to you.” Fu Xiao said.

“Thank you, you still understand me.” Mu Qing leaned back against the door frame and relaxed her body, “If you don’t have this cup of coffee in the morning, you won’t be energetic all day later.”

“What’s wrong…” Fu Xiao walked to Mu Qinglin and leaned against him, “Have all the materials been prepared?”

Mu Qinglin, “Okay, if there is no problem with the printout, it can be bound and bound.”

“You guys are really good enough. Even though you know this is a three-year exam, you have to drag it until it’s under your nose.” Fu Xiao complained.

Mu Qinglin brushed her hair back casually, exhaling helplessly, “There are only a few of us, and if we are all split in half, it will only be one third of you. It will be good if we can catch up in time.”

“All right, all right, I know you’ve worked hard, drink it quickly.” Fu Xiao lifted the bottom of the cup with his hand.

Mu Qinglin looked at her and laughed, holding a cup to his lips.

On a sunny morning, a mature woman with a slender waist and long legs was lazily leaning against the door frame, smiling softly in her brows and eyes, with one hand in her pocket, half of her body standing in the slanting light, adding a bit of informality.

The sense of contradiction carved out an indescribable charm in her body.

Zhou Yi thought about it, and felt that the charm should be called “attraction”.

The heartbeat in her chest that had calmed down a long time ago became agitated for no reason, vague and subtle, suppressed by the familiar gaze of the two, it was difficult to detect, only heard herself asking An Xiang in a low voice, “Who is that woman?” what?”

“Who?” An Xiang glanced back, “Sister Fu Xiao, Sister Mu’s college classmate, competed with Sister Mu for the first place in her major for several years. After graduation, the two became colleagues again. Now they are one of the most powerful young reporters in Taiwan. one.”

“Sister Mu has strong personal ability, and the friends around her are also very powerful.” An Xiang said enviously.

Zhou Yi has experience with this, for example, the old Chinese doctor who went to the hospital before, others were hard to find, but when Mu Qinglin came here, it became a plus number on the spot, and the nurse hung up and sent it over in person.

It’s just that she can’t do it.

Among the people Mu Qinglin knew.

“What are you thinking about? Your soul is gone.” Mu Qinglin stood next to Zhou Yi and asked amusedly.

Zhou Yi came back to his senses, and said casually, “It’s nothing, I slept on my stomach for too long, my neck hurts.”

“Where?” Mu Qinglin said, putting one hand on the back of Zhou Yi’s neck.

It should be the one that just took the coffee, the temperature on Zhou Yi’s skin was much higher than the original temperature.

The difference in temperature can be irritating.

Every time Mu Qinglin changed a place, Zhou Yi would feel an urge to tremble, so he gritted his teeth and endured it, and when Mu Qinglin pressed to the right, he made a sour “hiss”.

Mu Qinglin’s hand stopped there, flattened his fingertips, grabbed Zhou Yi’s thin shoulder and pinched it once and for all, “Your job is also a long-term job with your head down, so do more activities if you have nothing to do, don’t let your shoulders fall when you are young It’s overworked like a seventy-eighty.”

Zhou Yi wanted to argue, but the place Mu Qinglin pressed was so sour, she held her breath in her chest and dared not let go, fearing that her mouth would hurt and she would cry out.

Mu Qinglin didn’t know what Zhou Yi was thinking, and thought she was causing trouble again, so his subordinates squeezed her hard and said, “I’m talking to you.”

Zhou Yi’s body trembled violently, he raised his head, with tears in his eyes, and shouted in a broken voice, “Sister, it hurts!”

Mu Qing paused while sipping his coffee, then lowered his eyes and said, “I didn’t use half of my energy.”

Zhou Yi wanted to cry, “It’s strained, it’s strained! Try drawing on the board for seven or eight hours every day!”

“I take it easy…”

“Easy…”

“Do you think I’m trying too hard?”

“That’s fine for now.”

Mu Qing pressed Zhou Yi for ten minutes like a cat scratching her.

On the way, a colleague came over and told her that there was no problem with the printed materials, and asked her to go back and rest for half a day, and then come back in the afternoon.

Mu Qinglin withdrew his hand, called Zhou Yi to get up, and said, “Eat…”

Zhou Yi was pressed comfortably, but suddenly disappeared, and the gap in her heart was as big as a gap, “I don’t have an appetite, I don’t want to eat.” She said.

Mu Qinglin heard her, “This is in Provincial Taiwan, so it’s up to you?” After speaking, he kicked her heel.

Zhou Yi was indignant, followed behind and whispered: “A cold-blooded, ruthless and violent woman, she has lost her good looks for nothing.”

Mu Qinglin lowered his head and nodded his phone, “What are you scolding me for?”

Zhou Yi stopped and turned his head to the side.

Provincial Taiwanese restaurants can eat whatever you want for a dollar.

Mu Qinglin took the plate and followed Zhou Yi, letting her choose what she wanted to eat. She didn’t seem to remember her phrase “I have no appetite” not long ago. She wanted to take everything she saw. Mu Qinglin could only take advantage of her not paying attention, pick up the inappropriate ones and put them back. In the end, only enough for two people was left. food.

Zhou Yi looked back and saw that the fruits of his labor had been wasted, and held back for a long time without saying a word.

Seeing this, Mu Qinglin felt a little guilty, and allowed her to take another one, but, “If you take it, you have to finish it, and the restaurant does not allow leftovers.”

“Yes, yes…” The vegetable cooker echoed repeatedly, “Waste will be fined.”

Zhou Yi decisively took a large plate of meat.

It’s just a fine, she’s so poor that this is all she has left.

However, as soon as the plate of meat was put down, Mu Qinglin put it back, “The medicine you are taking now should avoid spicy and greasy meat.”

Zhou Yi immediately turned pale, “Why don’t you cut off my mouth and hang me up.”

One sentence made the chef’s shoulders tremble with joy.

After the meal, Mu Qinglin and Zhou Yi came out together, one went to the parking lot, and the other went back to Hongmen Lane.

When she was about to leave at the door, Zhou Yi suddenly received a call from Tang Yuanzhou, telling her to go back to Buddha Demon immediately.

Seeing that Zhou Yi’s expression was wrong, Mu Qinglin stopped and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Zhou Yi, “The police found out that Lu Chang’s last call was to me, and they want to take me back to make a record.”

Mu Qinglin didn’t hesitate, “I’ll go with you, my friend’s younger brother happens to be from Liulu Police Station, so I can take care of you if you need anything.”

Actually nothing will happen.

Taking transcripts is just ordinary questioning, and the whole process is monitored and filmed, and no one dares to mess around.

But when she thought that Zhou Yi ran to stand at the gate of the provincial platform in the middle of the night because of her discomfort and fear, Mu Qinglin was worried that she would go alone.

Zhou Yi has feelings for Lu Chang.

When she made this trip, the scars would definitely be uncovered.

“Let me follow?” Seeing that Zhou Yi didn’t speak, Mu Qinglin asked.

Zhou Yi didn’t answer, but when he saw the tiredness on her face, he asked back, “Aren’t you tired?”

“Tired…” Mu Qinglin didn’t hesitate, “I’m not made of iron, I’m sure it won’t be comfortable to stay up all night, but do you think I can go back to sleep now?”

Zhou Yi turned sideways to avoid the gaze between the two, kicked the ground and said, “If it’s me, I’ll just fall asleep.”

With such frequent and obvious small movements, it is difficult for Mu Qinglin to fail to understand Zhou Yi’s true meaning.

She didn’t seek Zhou Yi’s opinion any more, she just pushed her shoulders and walked forward, saying, “I’m not you.”

The police station was busy early in the morning.

Fu Xiao’s younger brother, Fu Hui, saw Mu Qinglin for the first time, and thought she was here to dig up news, so he quickly walked over and said, “Sister, if it’s something else, I will definitely give you an exclusive, this time two people died, the nature is different , don’t embarrass me, I won’t say anything.”

Mu Qinglin felt a headache from what he said, “I didn’t come here today to ask for news.”

Fu Hui was puzzled, “Then what are you doing here? Did you commit a crime? How old is it? Let me see if my face is enough to sell, if not…”

“It’s not me…” Mu Qinglin interrupted, and turned to look at Zhou Yi who was brought inside, “That girl will keep an eye out for me.”

Fu Hui, “I’ll go, that stall is in charge of the murder case in Hongmen Lane.”

“Why else should I look for you?”

“Okay, I’ll go and have a look, but I can only watch, I can’t talk.”

“Well, if possible, ask your colleague to use words that are not too stimulating. She is young, and she has a good relationship with the dead.”

“Understood, as long as she doesn’t get involved, everything is easy to talk about.”

“You know this place well, find a place to sit by yourself, and I won’t greet you.” Fu Hui said.

Mu Qinglin, “OK…”

Fu Hui left quickly.

Mu Qinglin wasn’t in the mood to sit down, so she found a nearby place that didn’t get in the way and stood there, never leaving Zhou Yi’s eyes.

Zhou Yi answered every question and remained calm throughout the process.

Until Yao Xiaoqi’s mother appeared.

“She is my only daughter, did I want her to jump off the building?!” Yao Xiaoqi’s mother shouted hysterically, “Birds of a feather flock together in this society, and people are divided into groups. I created conditions for her to force her to pass the school exam. What is wrong with her?” Already?!”

The inquiring policeman was still young, and he was a bit at a loss for this situation. “Ma’am, please calm down. Now that someone has reported some of your actions under your real name for hindering other children’s chances of further education, we will accept it.”

“How can I calm down? The college entrance examination is about to take place. You won’t let my daughter go back to school. How will she take the exam? Will she be like those people in Hongmen Lane in the future, or will she be like that Lu Mou, earn cheap money, and finally die on the street? ?you…”

“Who are you talking about?” A flat female voice suddenly broke in, scaring Yao Xiaoqi’s mother to turn around in a hurry, and she quickly recognized Zhou Yi, “It’s you!”

“That’s right, it’s me…” Zhou Yi chuckled, “I’m the kind of person you’re talking about hanging around in the red door alley, and the Lu you just mentioned is my brother.”

“Look! I’ll talk to anyone! Listen to her tone of voice, she’s not polite at all! Didn’t your parents teach you how to talk to elders?!”

Zhou Yi’s expression suddenly became very pale, and his eyes were so quiet that there was no ups and downs, “What are you? You just studied a few years more than us, and you haven’t seen much more human affairs than us. Mom, you deserve it too?”

Yao Xiaoqi’s mother was trembling with anger, and her voice broke when she spoke, “How dare you say it again!”

Zhou Yi, “It’s fine to say it ten times.”

“Zhou Yi!” Fu Hui was afraid that things would become serious, so he instinctively yelled at Zhou Yi like he would to those bums who come and go frequently. From the corner of his eye, he saw Mu Qing moved a little, and hurriedly looked over. Sure enough, seeing her complexion was not good, he had to With a soft attitude, he said, “Sit down…”

Zhou Yi nodded obediently and said, “Okay, Uncle Policeman.”

Yao Xiaoqi’s mother seized the opportunity and shouted, “It’s people like you that make my daughter not study hard. She wants to run to Hongmen Lane every day and get tattoos. If I wasn’t afraid that she would mix with people like you, how could it be so? Force her?”

Fu Hui shook his head and said to his colleagues, “Take her to another place.”

“Don’t be a policeman, I really want to know what people like us look like in your eyes.” Zhou Yi said with a smile: “Unlearned and incompetent? Idle? Bullying the good and fearing the evil? Or…”

“Don’t do it anymore.” Fu Hui took advantage of Yao Xiaoqi’s mother not leaving to make a mess, and said to Zhou Yi with a suppressed voice: “Sister Mu is angry and scares people to death. I want to live for two more years.”

Hearing the word “Sister Mu”, Zhou Yi’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly raised his head to look at Mu Qinglin not far away.

There was no sign of anger on her face. On the contrary, her eyes were gentle, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she mouthed something to her through the noisy air.

Zhou Yi looked at her and thought for a long time, but still didn’t understand.

After the transcript was over, Fu Hui sent Zhou Yi and Mu Qinglin away.

The two did not speak as they walked towards the car.

A quiet environment can easily make people cranky.

“Why don’t you leave?” Mu Qinglin couldn’t hear Zhou Yi’s footsteps, so she turned around and asked her.

Zhou Yi stood five or six meters away from Mu Qinglin, staring at her for a long time, a vague consciousness in her mind controlled her thoughts.

“Mu Qinglin, who do you think I am?” Zhou Yi asked in a cautious tone that she didn’t realize.

Mu Qinglin figured it out, rubbed her index finger joint with her thumb, and said, “Didn’t I tell you just now?”

“No…” Zhou Yi remembered Mu Qinglin’s silent mouth shape halfway through his words.

Zhou Yi, “I didn’t hear that.”

“Then I’ll say it again.” Mu Qinglin walked up to Zhou Yi step by step, and she was inside when she lowered her eyes, “I said, although you are skinny, I like you very much.”

“I like it, why should I care what other people think?”
