Powder and ink take the stage

  Bamboo Horse Teases Green Plum 21 Ink Enters the Stage

  The ink is on stage

  Bai Ming carefully placed Pei Yue in the passenger seat, while Sang Xiao Tian had quickly taken out Pei Yue's personal belongings and stuffed them into the back seat.

  "Thank you for taking care of Little Yue."

  The usually taciturn Mayor Bai, unexpectedly expressed his gratitude to Sang Xiaotian with great solemnity, not only startling Sang Xiaotian but also giving Pei Yue a fright.

  "Bai Ming, do you have a fever?"

  Pei Yue furrowed her brow and reached out to touch Bai Ming's forehead, while Sang Xiao Tian, who was standing outside the car, couldn't help but smile at the scene.

  "Hehe, you two take care, I won't disturb your romantic quarrel anymore, bye!"

  Pei Yue saw Bai Ming start the car and from the rearview mirror, she saw that behind the car was still following Bai Ming's private luxury sedan.

  "Go home, I'm fine." Pei Yue's tone softened a lot.

  Although she couldn't understand why the man, who was fearless of heaven and earth, would be so scared when he just held her. But accidentally seeing the weak side of this man, she naturally can no longer pretend to be tough.

  "Go to the hospital!" Bai Ming insisted.

  "Go home! It's not the doctor's fault, it's because you, Mr. Mayor, hugged too tightly just now!" Pei Yue emphasized!

  Bai Ming turned on the car lights, took a closer look at Pei Yue's face, saw that her eyes were bright and her face was flushed, making sure she was okay, before driving the car towards his own apartment.

  Back at Bai Ming's apartment, Bai Ming went to take a bath first. Pei Yue sat on the sofa, listlessly holding the TV remote control and constantly switching channels.

  Bai Ming came out of the bath and sat down beside her.

  Pei Yue ignored him and gazed at the screen, pretending to watch TV seriously.

  The flickering light on the screen cast a dim glow on her face, her long eyelashes fluttering as she gazed intently ahead, her expression inscrutable to Bai Ming.

  "Xiao Yue, promise me, don't run away silently again." Soothing voice, the dark eyes were filled with distress, was it because she had been pushed too hard that she would run away?

  His large warm hands gently stroked her face, and when he knew where she was going, he couldn't help but want to drag her back immediately and scold her severely, then lock her by his side.

  Now she sits beside him, but he can't bear to blame her for half a sentence.

  "Hmm!"

  Pei Yue brushed aside his hand, humming a casual response from his nostrils, his gaze completely absorbed by the familiar and beautiful face on the screen.

  "Diplomats..."

  Pei Yue's eyes stared unblinkingly at that face, muttering to herself.

  Bai Ming saw her so focused, his gaze moved from her face to the subtitles at the bottom of the TV screen.

  Chinese diplomat Kong Linlin returned home yesterday

  "Lina, do you still remember?"

  Bai Ming obviously didn't know that Pei Yue's mind was following Xiao Jie's previous hint, imagining a passionate love story between the young diplomat and the youngest mayor. To Pei Yue's surprise, he actually remembered Kong Li Na.

  He also thought that she had intentionally or unintentionally forgotten about past events, which is why she was so cold to him.

  "Nonsense, have I lost my memory? How could someone who grew up with me forget?"

  Pei Yuebai gave him a glance, secretly despising him in her heart. "Your great mother just sincerely taught me a lesson yesterday, how could I not remember?"

  "Do you still remember everything between us?"

  In Bai Ming's eyes, a spark of hope was instantly ignited.

  "Most likely!"

  Pei Yue was perfunctorily going through the motions, thinking of an excuse to slip away and sleep. Although she had been caught and brought back, it didn't mean she was willing to play along with Bai Ming's memory game. Especially after seeing that face on the screen, she lost all interest. And the inexplicable emotions that had just filled her chest also fled at the sight of the face on the screen.

  Bai Ming's face was filled with anticipation, wanting to say something, when the work mobile phone on the coffee table rang inopportunely.

  "Hello?" answered Bai Ming as he picked up the phone.

  "Bai Ming, it's me, Lina."

  Bai Ming listened to the woman's voice coming from the receiver, while Pei Yue had already seized the opportunity to run to the staircase, seemingly wanting to slip back to her guest room to sleep.

  Pei Yue didn't know and didn't care who was looking for Bai Ming, returned to the guest room, called Fen Ni to help wash up, lay in bed but couldn't sleep, got up and casually hugged the plush toy on the headboard, only then did she realize that this plush toy was her once extremely favorite coffee cat plush toy.

  It seems that Bai Ming didn't know that her liking would change!

  Kuang Lina sat on the back seat of Bai Ming's bicycle with a big coffee cat plush toy, returning to the courtyard on her 15th birthday. When she saw Pei Yue, Kuang Lina showed off a happy smile and flaunted it at her.

  "Xiao Yue, this is a birthday gift from Bai Ming, isn't it beautiful?"

  From that day on, Coffee Cat, who was once one of Pei Yue's favorite plush toys, became the one she hated the most.

  Years have passed, but the smile on Qiao Lina's face as she hugged her doll is still deeply etched in Pei Yue's mind, like a few tens of thousands of volts of strobe light flashing before her eyes, making them ache.

  Pei Yue gritted her teeth and stretched out her hand to pinch and scratch the coffee cat's face, the more she looked at it, the uglier it became.

  As expected, until today, she still can't like this cunning and sinister dead fat cat again!

  She kicked Coffee Cat under the bed and lay back on the bed to count sheep, unable to fall asleep.

  ……

  The next morning, Pei Yue deliberately went downstairs a little late, only to see Bai Dashi, who should have already gone to work, sitting on the sofa, hunched over and typing away on his laptop.

  "Good morning, Mayor Bai!"

  Bai Yue deliberately rubbed her eyes and yawned to prove that she had just gotten out of bed.

  Bai Ming raised his eyes and looked her up and down, seeing that she was in good spirits. He nodded towards the dining hall. "Go have breakfast, it's almost time to go to work."

  "Huh? Aren't I on vacation?"

  It's not that Bae Yu wants to be lazy, but it's just that she can't work normally even if she goes to work in her current state.

  "There's a case that needs to be handled urgently."

  Bai Ming said it very seriously, leaving no room for Pei Yue to have any doubts.

  Half an hour later, Pei Yue sat at the office desk opposite Bai Ming, with Xiao Bing, Secretary Ke's assistant, sitting beside her.

  "Lawyer Pei, take a look at these materials first. If there's anything that needs to be organized or revised, just let me know and I'll be responsible for entering it."

  The implication is that Pei Yue only needs to give orders, and Xiao Bing will take care of the rest.

  Pei Yue thought these materials were urgently needed and spent an entire morning sorting them out.

  But actually, Bai Ming just didn't feel at ease about her safety and insisted on keeping her under his own eyes to be reassured.

  During this time, Pei Yue glanced at the office and saw two more black-clad men, and had suspected it for a moment. Bai Ming explained that.

  "This is the bodyguard assigned to me by the government."

  Pei Yue didn't ask any more questions and continued to work hard, getting busier and busier. Before she knew it, lunchtime had arrived. Pei Yue, who wasn't hungry, was about to ask Xiao Bing to bring her lunch back when Bai Ming spoke up first.

  "Xiao Yue, the director said your wound is prone to deterioration, so you should be careful with your diet for a few days. Come on, I'll take you out to eat some light food."

  Xiao Bing had long since slipped away, and Pei Yue could only follow him out the door, closing it behind her with a soft click. A familiar voice whispered into her ear.

  "Bai Ming, are you off work now? Hey, looks like I've arrived just in time. Come on, let's go eat together!"

  Pei Yue looked in the direction of the sound, but because of the tall Bai Ming standing in front of her, she could only hear the woman's voice and not see her true face.

  But this suspense was soon lifted.

  Because Pei Yue hadn't heard Bai Ming's response yet, that woman had already walked to Bai Ming's side and unscrupulously put her hand into Bai Ming's arm.
