Chapter 459 Are all women's thoughts so hard to guess?
Chu Xin was lost in thought the whole way, and the car soon returned to the Central Special Branch.
It was already lunchtime, and Zhou Wen had already estimated the time and brought their meals back from the cafeteria, which were then kept warm on the radiator in the office.
Previously, he only helped Zhou Yichen with logistical issues, but later, without realizing it, whenever they were at work, he was responsible for all aspects of their group's life, including eating, drinking, and toileting.
She doesn't neglect her primary job and can still manage so many other things; she's definitely a good candidate for a head steward.
Of course, they only say this in private. Hedonism is the most shameful thing. If someone really takes it seriously, they can use this as a point of attack to make trouble for them.
"After Jia Zhenyan returned, I specifically arranged for people to keep watch around the area, and so far we haven't found any unusual or suspicious people."
While they were eating, Zhou Wen poured a glass of water for each of them and reported on the things Zhou Yichen had told him that morning.
"Then let's wait a little longer and be patient." Zhou Yichen had already anticipated that the other party wouldn't make a move so quickly.
Chu Yunting swallowed the food in his mouth before saying, "We must ensure his safety. He's a weakling and can't take much damage."
We don't want to fail in our mission and then have someone ruin their special operations unit's prized possession.
Zhou Wen nodded, finished his work, and found a seat. "Don't worry, the captain already emphasized that when he gave the instructions."
Although Zhang Shun didn't look at Jia Zhenyan much while they were at the hospital, Zhou Yichen and Chu Xin noticed the probing look in his eyes, so they immediately abandoned their initial plan to get information out of Jia Zhenyan.
We're all in the dark right now; the enemy is in the shadows while they're in the open. It's best to be cautious.
"I knew you guys were talking about this."
Just then, Jia Zhenyan's voice came in. The office door was not closed, and he leaned over the door frame to look inside.
"I think I can take on this mission. Don't forget, I once single-handedly subdued a spy."
Chu Yunting sneered and mercilessly attacked him, "It's all thanks to the stun gun's surprise attack that we were able to barely knock someone out. Don't forget that if we hadn't arrived in time, you would have been kidnapped to Taiwan long ago."
Jia Zhenyan retorted, "I made that stun gun, so why can't it be considered my achievement? Even if I knocked out a pig, let alone just one person, my contribution shouldn't be erased!"
"Why are you setting such a high tone? What are you trying to achieve?"
Jia Zhenyan chuckled, quickly darted in, and looked at Zhou Yichen earnestly, "I swear to the Great Leader that I will absolutely complete the mission brilliantly."
So let me get involved. It's been so long since I've gone on a mission with you guys. If this keeps up, our friendship will fade.
Besides, haven't you all been telling me to balance work and rest? I think going out and doing some missions is pretty good too.
Chu Xin glanced at the silent Zhou Yichen and curled her lip. He must have known that Jia Zhenyan would do this, which is why he remained so calm all this time.
Since Jia Zhenyan has made such a sincere request, we can't let him rush to do the job of reporting to Elder Ge. Otherwise, it would really seem like we're taking advantage of his stupidity.
"Well, your status is different now. If you want to participate, you need to formally apply to your superiors. Just stay in the department and don't take any risks. We'll talk about it after Elder Ge agrees."
Chu Xin looked at Zhou Yichen with even more strange eyes. He was so insidious. He clearly wanted to use Jia Zhenyan as bait, but he had to pretend to be democratic and fair and let him choose for himself.
Did they learn their lesson from their own mistakes and become wiser?
Of course, Zhou Yichen also knew Jia Zhenyan very well. He was not good at fighting, but he trusted his comrades who had fought side by side with him. For this reason alone, he would continue to move forward without hesitation.
"Be more careful and ask a few more people to protect you secretly. Otherwise, if we can't take care of you and you get separated from us and someone carries you away, you'll suffer if we can't find you in time."
After Chu Xin finished the last bite of rice, she passed by Jia Zhenyan on her way to wash the lunchbox, patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly.
Jia Zhenyan accepted all her concern and was even a little touched. "Yes, you guys are so good to me. I definitely won't hold you back."
Zhou Yichen paused, his hand holding the chopsticks still. How could he not understand the obvious hidden meaning in Chu Xin's words?
Sighing helplessly, you might think Chu Xin doesn't hold grudges, but she always manages to bring up the time when she used her as bait to stab you in the back.
You might say she holds grudges, but since they've handled many cases together, there were bound to be times when she was asked to act as bait to lure the enemy. Not only did she complete all of them brilliantly, but she also never complained, making you mistakenly think that she had forgotten those unpleasant things.
Are women's thoughts always so hard to guess?
Zhou Yichen couldn't help but question the meaning of life.
Ignoring Chu Yunting's amused expression, he changed the subject expressionlessly, "We need to go to the hospital this afternoon. Yu Bei has woken up, and we need to review his statement against everything Zhang Shun said to see if there are any discrepancies."
I'll go to Mr. Ge again tomorrow to submit the materials.
After saying that, he picked up his lunchbox and went out.
Chu Yunting was left behind, and after he left, he let out a wicked laugh, "Hehehe..."
Jia Zhenyan was completely bewildered. "What's wrong with you? Are you having a fit?"
Chu Yunting beckoned with a finger, "Come here, friend, it's time to tell you the most embarrassing thing Zhou Yichen ever did."
Zhou Wen's lips twitched as he watched the two of them sneakily huddle together. After a while, a barrage of exclamations came out: "What?", "Really?", "Doesn't it hurt?", "So Zhou Yichen can't beat her after all?"... This was enough to show Jia Zhenyan's entire process of going from disbelief to gradually joining in the gossip.
Once gossip starts, it rarely ends with discussing just one thing; instead, it leads to discussions of other topics, and the more it's discussed, the more it gets.
So when Zhou Yichen and Chu Xin returned, they had already created a great gossip atmosphere with great excitement.
Zhou Wen wanted to cough to give a reminder, but Chu Xin stopped him.
Don't be like that! This is the kind of life that working people should lead. Only by balancing work and leisure can one find happiness!
"Hey, what are you all doing blocking the doorway?"
A voice that seemed completely out of place in the situation rang out from behind. Chu Xin frowned and turned around. Who was so annoying?
Zhou Yichen's already indifferent face immediately turned cold and stern; he knew who it was without even looking.
Chu Yunting and Jia Zhenyan were also startled. Looking up, they found that Zhou Yichen had returned at some point. Feeling guilty, they took a step back in unison and said, "Nothing!"
Only after saying that did she realize that what she had just said didn't seem to be about them, so she looked outside like Chu Xin.
