Quick Travel: When the host of Meimeijiao is bound to the birth system

Chapter 654 Invincible 14

Shen Yao got some information from their conversation. Part of the traded goods had been shipped to several containers here and were placed in scattered locations.

Among them, the most critical batch of goods, namely the non-compliant micro-intravenous syringes that the security organization is most concerned about, will be shipped in the afternoon and then distributed after everyone arrives.

After a whole morning, Shen Yao had used the system props to record most of the key information in their conversation, and saved it all after a simple sorting.

By noon, the rain finally stopped.

Shen Yao was thinking about the specific coordinates of the container warehouse where the temporary trading goods were stored, so she found a chance to get out of the car and quietly blended in.

Although this is more dangerous, it can obtain more and more accurate information.

......

After sending Shen Yao off, Xu Zhi did not go home directly, but drove to the underground boxing ring.

The daytime spending is very quiet and has nothing to do with the night's glamour and extravagance.

He came here to get something and was about to leave after that.

But when he was about to leave, he happened to meet the manager who was usually in charge of his competition matters.

The manager greeted him warmly and asked him why he came so early.

Xu Zhi: "On the way."

The manager smiled and asked him if he wanted to have breakfast together.

Xu Zhi casually said that he had already eaten.

The manager nodded and walked with him to the elevator. He whispered something to him: "I don't know what happened recently. I heard that starting next week, all internal staff will have to re-record their fingerprint and facial recognition information."

Xu Zhi frowned.

The manager continued, "I also heard that even the permissions for the lounge have to be re-planned and redistributed. It's really strange. It's as if the higher-ups are afraid that someone will sneak in..."

......

When Shen Yao drove back to Xu Zhi's house, it was already past one in the morning.

The rain had stopped a long time ago, but the road was still slippery, and there was a slight chill in the air. When Shen Yao got out of the car, she trembled slightly, felt a little cold, and seemed a little dizzy.

Before entering the house, she suddenly remembered that she had left her cell phone in the car, so she went back to get it, but just as she turned around, the door was suddenly opened from the inside.

Xu Zhi's tall and straight figure appeared clearly in front of her, and along with it came his fresh breath and eager gaze that seemed to be very close, as if it wanted to stick to her.

Shen Yao saw that he was hesitant and inquiring. She thought he had a lot to ask her, but in fact, he only asked hesitantly: "Why did you come back so late?"

Shen Yao pursed her lips and replied: "Something happened to delay me, but it's already so late, why don't you reply..."

He stopped talking halfway when he realized this was his home.

Xu Zhi knew what she wanted to say, and also knew what he wanted to say.

He released his hand that was supporting the door and whispered, "I'm waiting for you. I'll go back when you come back."

Shen Yao raised her eyes to look at him, and after a moment of silence, she said softly, "Thank you."

Xu Zhi responded in a muffled voice, then asked her if her phone had been turned off all day.

Shen Yao just remembered that she was going to go to the car to get her cell phone, but she forgot about it after being interrupted.

"Yes, I've been a bit busy today, and my phone has indeed been turned off. It's still in the car. I'll go get it."

She said as she walked towards the car.

It was also at this time that Xu Zhi turned his gaze to the car she drove back. The look of astonishment in his eyes was exactly the same as when Shen Yao first saw the car, but then, there was a little more sadness.

He followed her and thought for a while before slowly speaking: "There are a few cars in the garage. You can use them directly if you need them..."

Shen Yao opened the car door and looked for her phone while refusing, "No, I have a car for now, and this car is really good."

Don’t be fooled by the shabby exterior of this car. In fact, its core is very solid, and only those who use it will know that.

Shen Yao didn't know why she explained so much.

She didn't notice that after she explained this, Xu Zhi paused and then began to look at the car in front of him with an inquiring gaze.

When she finally found her cell phone and closed the car door, Xu Zhi's aura and sense of oppression suddenly hit her in the face.

He was just leaning slightly against the car, looking down at me, without saying a word...

The atmosphere changed subtly in an instant. Shen Yao pursed her lips and subconsciously tightened the phone in her hand. Her brain began to work rapidly, thinking about how she would cover it up if he saw something without revealing her true identity.

She was not panicked or afraid, she just hadn't thought of what to say.

"Do ordinary people need to use bulletproof equipment with such a high safety factor when going out?" Xu Zhi asked quickly.

His fingertips tapped the car body carelessly. His tone seemed gentle and calm, but in fact it was turbulent. Even his dark eyes were sharp.

Shen Yao just felt that the corners of her mouth seemed a little dry and she couldn't open it.

After a long silence, she finally said, "Well...mainly because I'm timid and afraid of death."

Xu Zhi remained silent.

She emphasized it again with a serious look on her face: "Really."

Xu Zhi nodded. He didn't want to force her to give any explanation, nor did he want to break the thin shell she had built up right away. After all, everyone has their own secrets, let alone people like them who had only known each other for a short time.

Anyway, he brought her home knowing from the beginning that she came from an unknown place. As for her identity and background, it had no impact on their brief cooperation during this period.

He may not even have the position to worry.

With this in mind, some behaviors may be over the line.

"It's getting late. You should go to bed early. I'll go back first." Xu Zhi no longer leaned against the car body, nor cared about the rain on his clothes from the car body. He turned and left.

"Okay, then...see you tomorrow." Shen Yao opened her mouth towards his back somewhat belatedly.

It was not until he was about to reach the gate of the courtyard that Shen Yao seemed to suddenly react and quickly chased after him.

"Xu Zhi." When he just raised his hand to open the gate, Shen Yao had already caught up with him.

"You're angry? Are you?" she asked with a quick breath.

Xu Zhi's breathing paused, his fingertips curled up and loosened, he put his finger on the door handle again, and said calmly: "I'm not angry."

Shen Yao felt the dryness in the corner of her mouth come back. She pursed her lips and whispered, "I haven't said it yet. Thank you for waiting for me to come back today."

Xu Zhi's expression did not change: "Yeah."

Shen Yao's voice lowered a little: "It's been a long time since anyone has waited for me like this. I... am very happy."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Zhi completely let go of his hand on the door handle, like an anchor that had been circling in a whirlpool in the water and was finally sinking to the bottom.

He thought that at least he had the qualifications to care, so this wasn't overstepping the line.

He slowly turned around, looked at the girl in front of him who was speaking softly with her eyes lowered, and asked, "Are you hurt?"

Shen Yao shook her head, then nodded, "Just... a little injury."

Xu Zhi: "Where is the injury? Has it been treated?"

Shen Yao: "It's on the back shoulder. It's been taken care of."

Xu Zhi glanced at her shoulder a few times before looking away.

Shen Yao: "It's okay, it's not a serious injury and it won't affect our training tomorrow."

Xu Zhi sighed slightly, "So, am I some kind of wicked employer?"

Shen Yao: "Hmm? Ah... No, that's not what I meant. I really think this injury won't affect training."

Xu Zhi: "Let's go."

Shen Yao didn't quite understand: "Where...?"

Xu Zhi gestured to the house, "I'll get you some medicine."

......

In the room.

Shen Yao looked at the bottles and jars of medicine for different uses that Xu Zhi had carefully sorted out, and thought that her wound was really...really just a minor wound!

"Well...the injury on my back is not that serious," she explained.

Xu Zhi: "Take it first."

Shen Yao: "Okay."

She had no choice but to put all the bottles and jars into her arms and hold them tightly.

Before returning to the room, she suddenly approached him quietly and asked in a low voice, a little embarrassed, "By the way, you should not be angry now, right?"

Xu Zhi hummed vaguely.

Then, as if realizing he was being tricked, he added, “I’m not angry.”

Shen Yao held the bottles and cans and subconsciously tilted her head to look at him, "Well, good night."

Xu Zhi's ears had already quietly turned red, "Well, good night."

After Shen Yao left, Xu Zhicai thought silently in his heart: I'm not angry, I'm worried.
