Bamboo horse teases green plum 14 Tonight I'll accompany you

  Tonight I'll accompany you

  Mayor's Office.

  Bai Ming leaned back in his chair, tilting his head back and closing his eyes, rubbing the tight spot between his eyebrows.

  Mom, when will this kind of exhausting life like a dog finally come to an end?

  Bai Ming cursed silently in his heart.

  This is the first time Bai Ming has expressed dissatisfaction with his busy work since taking office.

  And this dissatisfaction, undoubtedly, was triggered by him running into Pei Yue, who was rushing to leave work with her bag on her back, at the office door after he finished his meeting!

  "Mayor Bai, I'm off work, bye!"

  Pei Yue smiled with her eyes narrowed into slits as she glanced over him, without any lingering feelings, and walked past him with big strides.

  After reuniting for so many days, this was the first time Pei Yue smiled at him with such radiance. At that moment, he almost couldn't hold back from pulling her into his arms and kissing her fiercely in front of everyone.

  Even if he knew, the smile she had was actually of the same significance as that of a prisoner finally leaving prison, he still couldn't control his inner feelings of both love and hate for her.

  Bai Ming opened his eyes wide, staring at the ceiling, and his busy life was like a spinning top that never stopped. He had actually gotten used to it. That day, after reuniting with her, he took advantage of his position to impulsively transfer her over, without thinking too much or even forgetting that she had many rebellious factors hidden within her bones. He simply thought that he couldn't let her go again and wanted to place her in a range that he could control.

  He thought at the time that as long as he could see her once a day, he would be satisfied.

  But he obviously overestimated his self-control and underestimated her influence on him. In these days of reunion, the time to see her was scarce, like a fleeting glance just now, which was far from enough!

  His heart was a parched field that had been dry for twelve years, and Pei Yue's lukewarm words were like a few drops of water sprinkled on it, "plop" falling down, instantly absorbed without a trace.

  No way, I have to find some time to have a good talk with her!

  Bai Ming only then realized that after reuniting, the two of them had never really had a good talk. It seemed he was still too indulgent and spoiled her too much!

  Bai Ming glanced at the wall clock, six o'clock. He suddenly sat up straight, spreading out the documents on the table, this pile of work, he gave himself an hour's time, an hour later, he was going to see Pei Yue!

  6:50, Bai Ming signed his name on the last document, heavily closed it and pushed it to one side, then without a second's delay, grabbed his coat and bag and rushed out of the office like he was escaping.

  Bai Ming was speechless about his own flustered state, after so many years had passed, he was still the same, as long as he came into contact with Pei Yue, he would become completely unlike himself!

  His tie was tied too tightly and it was uncomfortable, so Baiming loosened his tie and took out his phone. Pei Yue's phone rang for a long time but no one answered, Baiming furrowed his brow, remembering her bright smile when she left, damn, could she be on a date tonight? Was it with Zhao Wentao?

  Bai Ming rushed into the elevator and pressed minus one floor, but no one answered the phone after several retries. Bai Ming was anxious, holding the phone and running out of the elevator, getting on the car.

  He was thinking about whether to go directly to Pei Yue's apartment or call Pei Yang first to probe the situation, when his phone rang. He looked at it and saw that it was Pei Yue's number.

  "Pei Yue! Why the hell didn't you answer my call?"

  Bai Ming was furious! He growled into the phone!

  "Is Mr. Bai here? I am a police officer from XX Branch Bureau. You are the owner of this place, and the owner was stabbed by someone earlier and is now being sent to Central Hospital for treatment."

  Bai Ming's hand shook and his phone almost fell!

  Bai Ming suppressed his anger and asked roughly, although the police officer clearly told him that Pei Yue was stabbed in the shoulder and had no life-threatening injuries, he still sped all the way to the hospital.

  When he stood panting at the emergency room door, Pei Yue, who had just finished bandaging her wound, was sitting on the bed. She was still wearing the white shirt she had left in, and the bloodstains on it made Bai Ming's eyes widen in shock.

  "Xiao Yue, are you okay?"

  Bai Ming ignored the surprised and inquiring glances cast at him from all around, and rushed straight to the bedside.

  "Sir, please don't make a loud noise in the ward."

  The nurse, who was busy sorting out the dressing, turned around and scolded, but when she saw Bai Ming's face, she was taken aback, and when she realized that the person in front of her was the mayor, she was suddenly frightened and her face turned pale.

  Bai Ming didn't have any spare time to care about the nurse's attitude, his gaze never left Pei Yue for a moment, afraid that she had other injuries besides her shoulder wound. He examined Pei Yue's body for any other wounds while giving low commands to the nurse beside him.

  "Give her a separate ward!"

  Bai Yue hadn't had time to stop her, when the nurse hastily responded with a "yes" and ran off.

  He stretched out his hand to support Pei Yue's shoulder, but halfway through, he was afraid of hurting her, so he put down his hand and pulled over the palm of her uninjured hand. His other hand gently covered it, and the warm palm wrapped Pei Yue's blood-stained wrist tightly.

  Pei Yue wanted to withdraw her hand, but this action pulled on the wound on her shoulder, making her face even paler. She let out a soft hiss and pursed her lips.

  Her shoulder had just been medicated, and the hemostatic powder on the wound was even more painful than before, but she didn't have the habit of crying out in pain. This time, she endured the pain and smiled at Bai Ming, softly comforting him.

  "I'm fine, don't worry."

  His eyes, black as ink, were filled with anxiety and distress, gazing at her pale smile. His heart ached as if someone had cut out a piece of it alive. At this moment, he wished to catch the culprit who hurt her and chop him into minced meat immediately.

  "Don't be silly, no need to show off!"

  Bai Ming's voice was hoarse, he raised his hand and pulled her disheveled hair back behind her ear. When she was a child, she was much more delicate, whenever she suffered a little grievance, she would love to snuggle into his arms. Now if she could still be like before, burying herself in his chest crying and throwing a tantrum, that would be great!

  Bai Ming stared at Pei Yue, her eyes still clear, but she could no longer find the shadow of that little girl who used to turn red-eyed with excitement in her childhood.

  He was in a daze, when a middle-aged man wearing a suit rushed in flustered, followed by medical staff pushing a wheelchair.

  "I apologize for keeping you waiting, Miss. Mayor Bai is very busy, if there's anything that needs to be done, just give me a call and I'll arrange it immediately, no need to trouble Mayor Bai to come in person."

  Bai Ming frowned, he had never liked listening to such flattering words.

  "Alright, no more nonsense, be careful and don't hurt her."

  No matter how hard Pei Yue insisted that she was only injured in the shoulder and both feet, which could absolutely move freely, the hospital director still had to have her sit in a wheelchair and personally pushed her from the emergency room to the intensive care unit.

  Taking advantage of the gap in changing rooms, Bai Ming followed the police who had just finished taking a statement to understand the whole process, and then walked to the end of the corridor, pressing his voice to make several calls.

  When he returned to the intensive care unit, Bae Yu had already changed out of his blood-stained clothes with the help of a nurse. Because of his injured shoulder, he couldn't lean against the back of the bed and could only sit upright on the hospital bed, where an IV rack was hanging.

  As soon as Pei Yue saw Bai Ming walk in, he immediately said.

  "You can go back, the doctor said that after finishing these two packs of anti-inflammatory drips, it should be fine. It's estimated that staying here for one night will pass the observation period and you can be discharged tomorrow."

  Bai Ming, however, seemed to have not heard her words, and threw the briefcase onto the sofa, plopping himself down on the edge of the bed.

  "I'll stay with you tonight!"
