Shen Chaoxi slept for a whole day. She had not woken up since she passed out in the bathroom last night. Lu Yunzhou called Aunt Zhao to guard her in Yuqing Garden.
He went to the military area to deal with urgent matters, and returned to Yuqingyuan near dusk, when it was almost dark.
The gray sky shrouded the outside of the villa, the lights in the living room were dim, and only the kitchen was lit.
Aunt Zhao prepared the meal, put on a clean apron, and said to Lu Yunzhou who had returned from the military area: "Master Lu, are you back?"
"Miss Shen, she is still asleep."
"Well, I'll go up and see her."
Lu Yunzhou responded in a low voice, pursed his thin lips, and his handsome face was shrouded in the dim light of the living room. He turned on all the lights in the villa.
Letting his field of vision suddenly become brighter, the man took off his military uniform, then placed it next to the sofa, and the tall figure went up to the second floor.
The door of the master bedroom is slightly ajar. The lights are on in the bedroom, the light is soft, and it looks very warm. The white gauze curtain floats in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, as if there is a cold wind, blocked outside.
Everything in Yuqing Garden seemed to match the atmosphere tonight and was quiet, so when Shen Chaoxi woke up, she found herself lying on the bed, aching all over.
Beside her, Lu Yunzhou was stirring the chicken soup for her body with a spoon, his expression solemn, as if after a busy day in the military area, the first thing he did when he came back was to take care of her.
But when he turned around, he found the girl next to him, with a pale complexion and frowning eyebrows, calling him in a hoarse voice: "Lu Yunzhou."
"Are you awake?" Lu Yunzhou heard her voice and immediately put the bowl in his hand aside, if she continued to fall asleep.
He was afraid that Lu Yunzhou would be worried that she hadn't eaten all day, so he fed her soup to replenish her body.
Who would have known that Shen Chaoxi's first words after waking up would be to ask him: "Did you change this for me?"
Shen Chaoxi looked at him blankly, thinking that she was on her period, but there seemed to be something underneath her, and she didn't feel any discomfort at all. Such a situation.
There is only one possibility, that is, someone helps her change the sanitary napkins in her private parts frequently.
Hearing this, Lu Yunzhou's eyes seemed to darken. His expression froze slightly, then he looked at her and said in a low voice: "Aunt Zhao changed it for you."
As everyone knows, just after Shen Chaoxi finished speaking, a flash of throbbing flashed through his eyes, as if he remembered something from last night.
His knuckled fingers curled up slightly, as if he was exercising extreme restraint.
But Shen Chaoxi didn't know that Lu Yunzhou would respect her privacy no matter what time he was.
All her secrets, except what she had with Sheng Mingchu before, were because of the mission and he did it as a last resort.
Otherwise, how could he bear to see her tied up like that, with nothing covering her body?
But after hearing Lu Yunzhou's answer, Shen Chaoxi slowly breathed a sigh of relief. Just now, she noticed something abnormal under her body and thought it was Lu Yunzhou who was helping her.
So that's it... Shen Chaoxi thought, Lu Yunzhou frowned, and was already in front of her, lowering his head seriously: "Shen Chaoxi."
Lu Yunzhou had a stern face, his thin lips were pursed tightly, and his brows never relaxed for a moment. He just looked at her with such a sad face and whispered to her.
"If you feel uncomfortable in the future, don't hold it back and tell me."
"Um?"
Shen Chaoxi looked at him with doubtful eyes, and when she met the man's eyes, she almost subconsciously blurted out, "I didn't," she held back.
But in her mind, she suddenly thought of her passing out in the bathroom last night, and the words she was about to say were suppressed by her.
It seemed that she was already feeling unwell when Lu Yunzhou knocked on the door last night and brought her sanitary napkins.
Seeing the way she wanted to speak but then suddenly stopped, Lu Yunzhou frowned, pursed his thin lips tightly, and looked at her with a deep look in his eyes, seeming to frown even more tightly.
Shen Chaoxi: "Chief Lu, I'm actually not as fragile as you think. Was what happened yesterday an accident?"
For Shen Chaoxi, it was indeed an accident. She had long known that the injection would not cause much harm to her if it penetrated her neck.
But she didn't expect that the injection that could dissolve the drug should have been injected into her body when she was thirteen years old. The dissolved injection would still remain in her body.
This made her suffer from unbearable abdominal pain after her period. It was for this reason that she thought it was normal for her to have her period.
She was completely negligent. It was probably the injection she had inserted into her neck that day that caused her unbearable abdominal pain and the pain to the point of fainting.
"Shen Chaoxi."
But the man in front of him suddenly said coldly, and his cold face was covered with thoughts. He frowned and looked at her, as if he wanted to know something from her eyes.
Immediately, Lu Yunzhou looked worried and said in a low voice, "It's not an accident that you are in such pain."
His tone was full of determination, and he even seemed to be looking into her eyes with an extremely complicated look.
The two people looked at each other, Shen Chaoxi's eyes were slightly startled, and they just looked into the man's deep eyes.
The slightly pale cheek suddenly raised her lips, and a faint smile overflowed from her cold eyes.
"Then Chief Lu, tell me, if it's not an accident, what else could it be?"
"It's not like that. I took a shower and had my period. The pain made me unconscious. Is it just me faking it?"
Shen Chaoxi's words were meant to provoke him, just when she saw Lu Yunzhou's cold white face. There was almost a faint cyan shadow under his dark eyes, and his face was a little tired.
She knew that during the day when she was asleep, Lu Yunzhou was busy from morning to night, and now he is back.
She was afraid that Lu Yunzhou would be too preoccupied, so she said it as a joke, hoping to divert his attention.
At this moment, Aunt Zhao came up and knocked on the door. When she saw Shen Chaoxi waking up, she seemed to have joy on her face, raised a smile at the corner of her mouth, and said to the people in the room.
"Master Lu, Miss Shen, it's time for dinner."
"Yeah." Lu Yunzhou frowned when he heard the voice, looked away from Shen Chaoxi's face, looked at Aunt Zhao at the door of the room, and responded in a low voice.
Looking back, he looked at Shen Chaoxi's still pale face, as if he was worried about her physical condition, but faced with Shen Chaoxi's perfunctory response, he did not ask further questions, but expressed concern.
"Does it still hurt?"
Shen Chaoxi smiled lowly at him and shook his head.
Just like that, Lu Yunzhou took her a coat from the room, forced her to put it on, and then went downstairs to eat.
The dishes cooked by Aunt Zhao have been light recently, but they are also Shen Chaoxi's usual taste. On the contrary, Lu Yunzhou, seeing her hand holding chopsticks, wished he could feed her with his own hands.
Of course, he didn't really want to feed her, but his heart was grabbed when he remembered last night when he saw her passed out in the bathroom.
Now, Lu Yunzhou is afraid that something will happen to her again.
But while having dinner, Chen Yu came to Yuqingyuan. It seemed that there was something going on with the military region.
Lu Yunzhou glanced at Shen Chaoxi, fearing that it would affect her. She was in poor health recently, so he said softly to her: "Go to sleep upstairs, okay?"
The moment Shen Chaoxi saw Chen Yu, she knew without thinking that it was a matter of the military region. Chen Yu only came back here at night.
On the day she fell asleep, Lu Yunzhou had not had a good rest. It must have been something related to Sheng Mingchu's side, and he had been busy in the military region for a long time. Not long after he came back, people from the military region came.
It showed that he was actually very busy with matters in the military region. After thinking about it, Shen Chaoxi agreed: "Okay."
Looking at Lu Yunzhou's appearance now, even if she told him that she was fine, Lu Yunzhou might not listen.
If she were here, Lu Yunzhou's attention would be on her, and he would be distracted and unable to deal with the affairs of the military region.
So she still wouldn't hinder him in the living room.
After nine o'clock in the evening, the night was dark, as if thick clouds had covered the moonlight.
In the military region, all the special forces of the military region were on standby. Lu Yunzhou had a cold face, and Chen Zou came up to report.
"Chief, after Sheng Mingchu jumped into the river, he fled to the pier at the mouth of the river and is now hiding inside with the owner of the cargo yard there."
"Our people are secretly watching outside, and we haven't seen them come out yet."
"Um."
"Chief, do we need to order an order to blockade the area around the mouth of the river and arrest him?"
"hold on."
"Does the chief want to wait until he contacts that person?" Chen Zui frowned and suddenly guessed something.
There was an accident on the ferry in the middle of the river, and Sheng Mingchu was traced by the military. After he jumped into the river and fled, when he was desperate, he would definitely try to contact the person who could help him.
"Yes." Lu Yunzhou's voice was low and cold. His well-jointed fingers seemed to be twisting their fingertips, and a touch of coldness overflowed from his eyes.
On the ferry, someone snitched.
There are not many people in the military who know about this.
There was only one possibility. A high-level military official from Country Y had tipped off Sheng Mingchu.
If Lu Yunzhou hadn't reacted quickly and taken advantage of Sheng Ming's initial suspicion, the military's operation that night would have ended in failure because someone had leaked the information.
"But chief, if that person is really from our military, then he,"
Chen Zui frowned, an answer suddenly appeared in his mind, and his expression seemed to have become much more serious.
It can definitely only be the top brass of the military.
Only those suspected of having access to top secrets can know about the secret operations of the military region.
So when she met Lu Yunzhou on the Jiangxin ferry, Shen Chaoxi was also surprised. She didn't expect people from their military to be there.
Only Shen Chaoxi would cooperate with him in doing something like that.

At two o'clock in the morning, the lights were on in Yuqing Garden, but the lights in the living room had been turned off.
Because Lu Yunzhou went to the military area and was too busy to take time off, he asked Aunt Zhao to take care of Shen Chaoxi in Yuqing Garden.
At this time in the evening, Aunt Zhao also fell asleep in the guest room downstairs.
On the second floor of the villa, the door to the master bedroom is closed.
Shen Chaoxi was lying flat on the bed, seemingly asleep. Suddenly, in the darkness, the door handle of the door was slightly turned.
The extremely subtle sound it made was like coming from hell, a bit eerie and penetrating.
Shen Chaoxi suddenly opened her eyes, but what caught her eyes were two men in black clothes.
They came in with guns in their hands. When they saw Shen Chaoxi, they pointed the dark muzzle at her and pointed it at the forehead of the girl sleeping on the bed.
"Bang bang!" The sound of gunshots was deafening.
At two o'clock in the morning, there were two sudden gunshots, accompanied by two bullet holes in the pure white quilt, and the velvet inside flew out.
Because it was very light, the white velvet flew everywhere, making it extremely messy.
At such a dangerous moment, Shen Chaoxi rolled over from the bed and avoided the bullets of the two men in black. After seeing that she actually dodged.
The expressions of the two men in black changed. They immediately looked at the guns in their hands and continued shooting at the girl who was avoiding them.
Their movements were like hired outlaws and killers. The two of them shot at Shen Chaoxi in unison, as if they wanted to kill her!
But Shen Chaoxi moved very quickly. After getting out of bed, she took advantage of the moment when the two killers missed, and immediately stepped forward, stretched out her hand, and started fighting with the two killers.
In Yuqingyuan, Aunt Zhao, who had fallen asleep at the time, was awakened by the violent movement. She was so frightened that she quickly left the room, walked to the living room, and looked upstairs.
Gunshots? It was coming from the room above.
"No, Miss Shen!"
Aunt Zhao was so frightened that her face turned pale with fright. She was so frightened.
"Miss Shen..."
But in panic, she remembered Shen Chaoxi who was still resting in the room upstairs.
This time, she was panicked.
Quickly, Aunt Zhao called and asked the police to come over.
She was trembling with fear and hiding in the living room, panicked and anxious.
"Hey, is this XXX?"
Aunt Zhao was so frightened that even her voice trembled when she made the call. Her shoulders were trembling, fearing that if she was late, something would happen here.
And she was also afraid that Miss Shen would encounter something unexpected now.
But when she heard the noise upstairs, she didn't dare to go up, because Aunt Zhao knew that it would be useless even if she went up.
Calling the police is the fastest way.
It should be said that these two killers came straight to Shen Chaoxi.
After all, people like them who break into houses are either thieves or people who break into houses and rob them.
But they did not search downstairs, but came directly to the master bedroom, and after entering, they immediately shot the person on the bed.
If Shen Chaoxi had been less vigilant at that time, or was asleep, he might have been killed by two shots fired by the two of them at the same time.
However, Shen Chaoxi's reaction was extremely fast, which was obviously unexpected by them, but after all, he was a killer and a hired person.
Seeing Shen Chaoxi's extremely quick reaction, he still wanted to take her life!
They attacked hard at every turn, but Shen Chaoxi approached them and after fighting with them, he unloaded the gun from one of them.
The other person, when fighting Shen Chaoxi, was forced to hit the door panel behind him, making a violent trembling sound.
He almost didn't have the chance to raise his hand and shoot her, because after their close fight, the distance was too close to shoot her.
When Shen Chaoxi grabbed the arm of the killer in front of him, the gun in his hand fell to the ground with a muffled sound.
Immediately, Shen Chaoxi's eyes turned cold. When the killer lowered his head and seemed to want to pick up the gun, he stretched his legs and kicked the gun away from the ground.
The killer's eyes were fierce, and he raised his head almost instantly, his eyes full of murderous intent!
He took out a dagger from the darkness and swung it at Shen Chaoxi.
