The modern me and the Republic of China her

Chapter 568
Lin Mi held the baked sweet potato, gently tore off a piece of browned skin, and blew it.The hot air with its craving aroma attracted her firmly.

Soft and sweet!She chewed vigorously while blowing, and her cheeks became flushed in the heat.

Chen Xing, who was working next to him, was also hungry. He grabbed a big bite and forgot the soup on the stove.It wasn't until a puff of black smoke suddenly rose from the crackling iron pan, choking them to cough again and again, that they realized that they had caused trouble.

"Hurry up and turn down the fire!" Chen Xing coughed and hurriedly picked up the big-mouthed copper pot beside him, and poured water into it.

"Clang clang clang!"

Lin Mi also frantically poked the firewood in the stove with iron tongs, and his hair and face were covered with thick ash.

There were footsteps coming closer and closer outside the kitchen.

I don't know who is coming?

The guilty two raised their heads almost at the same time, and glanced at the door anxiously--
If it's a talkative Baizhi girl, an apology is quite useful.But the sound was louder, not like the little girl walking.

What if it is a narrow-minded Baishu?Don't make a fuss over a molehill, make a fuss with a bad face?

After getting out of bed and walking a few steps under the eaves, Qilan saw a plume of black smoke coming out of the kitchen window in the corner of the yard.

Before he had time to think about it, he hurried to the hot spring to fetch water and rushed to help.

Panting, he rushed into the house with a wooden bucket.Glancing at the burnt iron pan on the stove and the ashes all over the floor, I wiped my cold sweat: a possible fire has just been nip in the bud.

Chen Xing recognized the person who came, and heaved a sigh of relief.

He took the wooden bucket from his brother and put it on the ground, rubbing his palms in embarrassment:

"It's all because I'm greedy, I only want to eat sweet potatoes, and I boiled all the good soup."

"I also have a share, and I burn a little too much firewood."

Lin Mi beside him blushed and readily admitted his mistake.

Inadvertently caught a glimpse of a "disgraced little tabby cat" reflected on the water surface of the wooden barrel.

She was so ashamed that she bent down to scoop up a ladle of water and washed it in a hurry.

After washing his hands and face, and re-tying the messy braids, he hugged him gently from behind.

"Someone is disobedient, he should lie down and walk around."

"Leave it to me when I come, Mi'er will go back to her room to rest."

Qilan's voice has a comfortable temperature.It's like the warm sunshine and the cold willow wind blowing on the face.It made her heart itch.

"I want to accompany you and study hard to cook."

Lin Mi moved closer to the cutting board with great interest, and Qi Lan gave a slight pause to the hand holding the kitchen knife.

She stood tall, slim, with bright eyes and white teeth.He lowered his head, somewhat dazed.

Chen Xing was keenly aware of a trace of strangeness, and quickly came over with a smile to persuade him: "Xiaolan really loves you. The two of us here are enough."

"Aren't you afraid that the good things will be eaten up, so you are rushing to chase me?" Lin Mi moved a small stool and went to the stove to continue digging sweet potatoes.

Not only did she not leave, she even teased him.Chen Xing gritted his teeth, bit the bullet and said loudly:
"Ms. Lin, don't you want to talk more with Xiaolan's mother? I think she is very familiar with Bai Zhi."

Before he finished talking, a big sweet potato flew towards his head.He hurriedly crossed his hands to block it, almost scalding the skin off his palms.

"Little Cannonball" fell to his feet in anger, and immediately heard a warning:
"Brother Chen, you have to stand by my side, or I'll tell Chris to go, hum!"

One word hits the weak spot.Chen Xing wished he could slap himself.

Hearing a "bang", Lin Mi had already arrived outside the house.The little girl was in a fit of anger, and she closed the door with great force.

There were only the two of them left in the kitchen, their eyes were facing each other, and the atmosphere was tense.

"Brother Chen, if you want to ask, just ask, I have nothing to hide. Just don't let Mi'er hear it."

"If I'm not mistaken, you went to spoil Uncle Li Yan's wedding banquet last night? Who is the oriental man who carried you back?"

"I'm the mother who made an appointment with Yitang to rescue Mi'er. I sneaked in and brought her out, and I went back temporarily to help her bring the letter to Shi'an."

Hearing this, Chen Xing's heart beat faster.

Next, the heart beat harder and harder each time, almost jumping out of the chest——
On the way, Qilan met Beiyuan Tai, a master of the base he had made friends with before, and warned him that there were ambushes at both ends of the block;
Soon, someone on the scene released a triangle firework signal, summoning the base's number one sniper to perform the task;

Later, gunshots rang out, Lin Yitang broke through the wall and his whereabouts were unknown, and Mrs. Lin was unfortunately shot.
Qilan spoke intermittently with red eyes, from the beginning to the end, she never stopped blaming herself.

In the past several months, relying on the special triangle symbol on the bullet head that Zhang Wenxuan and Dong Xiaomei risked their lives to bring from the operating room, he approached the truth step by step with difficulty.

It was the sniper sent by the secret base who seamlessly used the car accident as a cover to kill Zhu Juanjuan's two elder brothers who were about to participate in the election of the Government Council.

Lin Yitang, who was framed as a suspect, was recovering from a serious injury, but his calculations were impeccable: the time of going to the streets "just happened" to coincide, and the documents and pistols were "hastily" left on the scene.The innocent Lin family was dragged into the quagmire overnight.

He once naively thought that as long as he caught the sniper, he could follow the clues to find out the mastermind behind the conspiracy.

Obsession drove him to chase the sniper desperately.Seeing that he was about to catch up, he was caught off guard by a bomb that detonated unexpectedly.

The innocent residents around were also affected. The cries, screams, and the sound of rubble and debris still echoed in my ears.

Father, like son.

Even though the whole process was tortuous and complicated, Chen Xing listened to the last word silently, and was still willing to speculate on the outcome in an optimistic direction.

He patted his shoulder to comfort his sobbing companion, "What you see and hear may not be true. Think about the good!"

"Brother Chen, is there any hope of redress?" Qilan raised his head, his cheeks were wet.

"Maybe there is." Chen Xing took off a cattail leaf fan on the wall, and pointed to the northeast direction calmly, "Go to Mama Shi first, and ask her to help contact Miss Xiaomei to find out the situation."

"Okay, let's act this afternoon!"

The two discussed in low voices and clapped hands tacitly.

At lunch, Mrs. Ye saw a table full of delicious dishes. She was pleasantly surprised, but also felt pity.

On the night she was taken away, her son was not yet full moon.Now that he has grown up and is still self-reliant, he must have suffered a lot.

As a woman, she also noticed Lin Mi's little emotions, and she held hands and sat together, and the little girl smiled sweetly again.

Chen Xing's eyes were fixed on Bai Zhi's empty seat.Isn't the little girl afraid of embarrassment, and even embarrassed to eat at the table?

Bai Shu also stared at Qilan quite dissatisfied, because of the friendship between Mrs. Ye and Mr. Bai, Huo Da also refrained from speaking.

There are people walking on the stairs.Immediately afterwards, Bai Zhi's silver bell-like laughter came over:
"I have good news to announce!"

"The little brother who was recuperating upstairs opened his eyes, and he will be able to get out of bed after three days of rest."
