Chapter 159 Design Drawing

Kate slept very late and didn't finish her makeup until eleven o'clock before going to the restaurant for dinner. This time she ate with Duan Cui. Duanmu explained the current situation and asked Kate to stay in the hotel.

Kate responded, "Their assassination deadline is one month, and you only protected me for two days."

Cui Jian looked at the restaurant and replied, "I don't know about them, but I know about us. You are right."

Kate: "If I go back to Poland, will Chunque still hunt me down?"

Duanmu said: "With your connections in Eastern Europe, Chunque is just a small problem. They are just killers, not soldiers."

Cui Jian really appreciated Duanmu's work attitude today. No matter if it was true or not, she would just coax him for two days. Cui Jian's eyes fell on a single man who was several tables away.

Single man, white, about 35. Suspicious point: He focused on the food, holding the tray with one hand and eating with a fork with the other, occasionally looking down, not looking around. His food was not very delicious, and he didn't look very hungry when he ate.

Cui Jianshuang tapped the desktop to hook up the Bluetooth headset, tapped his phone to start a conference call, then stood up and walked towards the man. He reached his right hand into the left hem of his suit, turned off the safety, and loaded the bullet.

He pulled out a chair with his left hand, sat opposite Xiaobai, and looked at Xiaobai quietly.

Xiaobai looked up and saw Cui Jian, and smiled politely: "Hello, how can I help you?"

Cui Jian asked: "Spring Bird?"

Xiaobai was confused: "What?"

Cui Jian said: "Nothing, I'm waiting for a friend. I'll sit for a while. Do you mind?"

Xiaobai smiled: "Of course."

Cui Jian was about to speak when a gust of wind blew over: "Jianjian."

Cui Jian was speechless. Yiyi was checking Xiaobai's identity, why are you here to join in the fun? Yun Xinyue sat next to Cui Jian and looked at Xiaobai: "Your friend? Won't you introduce him to me?"

Cui Jian didn't look at Yun Xinyue, but stared at Xiaobai and said, "Your hands are so tender, especially your right hand, it looks very sexy." He was referring to Xiaobai's hand that was holding the plate. Xiaobai held the fork with his left hand.

Yun Xinyue frowned and looked at Cui Jian: Why are you like this Cui Jian? It's not unacceptable. It seems that Duanmu is his girlfriend. No, isn't his girlfriend nearby? How dare you be so arrogant?
Xiao Bai kept smiling, holding his right hand with his left hand, put his right hand aside, and raised his right hand from under the table: "No need."

Cui Jian picked up the pistol, turned on the safety, and put the pistol back.

Yun Xinyue then realized the tense atmosphere. She covered her lips with two fingers and looked left and right.

Xiao Bai asked: "How did you know?"

Cui Jian: "I'm not sure, but I don't mind being an impolite person. I think you probably don't have the mental preparation to play the role of someone who is treated rudely."

Xiao Bai admitted: "I expected you to suspect me, but I didn't expect you to sit across from me. However, you can't be sure of my identity. If I make the first move, you will be dead."

Cui Jian said, "As you said, there is no need. There are armed bodyguards from the Li family in the outer circle, and there are bodyguards from our company in the restaurant. I may not die if you attack me, but you will definitely die. How could someone of your status pay the price of your life to kill me?"

Xiao Bai asked: "Do I have any chips?"

Cui Jian: "Yes, we still have two days of work, it would be best if everything goes well. Frankly speaking, I don't think you are a killer, and you don't carry any weapons. You deliberately left a flaw to test our bodyguards."

Xiao Bai said, "Facing a 2-star bodyguard known as the God of Death, it is necessary to test him." He did not bring any weapons, but a fake hand, and pretended to be a killer, making himself look a little nervous. The purpose was to test whether Cui Duan could find his abnormality, and how he would deal with it after finding it.

The result was somewhat unexpected. Normally, when a bodyguard discovers something unusual, he would first protect his employer and leave the dangerous place, or ask others to come up and question him. Xiao Bai didn't expect Cui Jian to sit across from him so casually.

Xiao Bai's statement that Cui Jian is the Grim Reaper bodyguard is also true. In the industry, Dayin Security is very famous. The four bodyguards have killed countless people, from the Sakura Group to the North Circle, from the Spring Bird to the Autumn Crow. Cui Jian is the only 2-star bodyguard in the industry.

In the past, when killers committed crimes, they needed to study the target's living habits. When facing Dayin Security, they also needed to study the bodyguards' working habits.

Xiaobai said: "I have no weapons and I'm just a nobody, so I can't agree to your request." The implication is, you can't do anything to me.

Cui Jian said: "Brother, not breaking the law is one thing, and whether we can negotiate is another. I can hack the surveillance in the restaurant with just a word, and then communicate with you intimately. After all, our company has the best legal department in Hancheng. Strictly speaking, nothing I do is against the law. But I admire your frankness, and I hope we can have a frank talk."

Cui Jian lowered his voice: "We can even cooperate."

Yun Xinyue slapped Cui Jian on the head. Cui Jian was angry. Yun Xinyue said angrily: "Professional ethics, every profession has a minimum professional ethics, you can't be so shameless."

Cui Jian: "Sister, the problem is that we are not very familiar with each other. Why do you hit me?"

Yun Xinyue was a little embarrassed. She gestured with her hands for a while and asked, "How about you fight back?"

At first, Yun Xinyue was surprised by the confrontation between Cui Jian and Xiao Bai, and praised Cui Jian's performance crazily in her heart: too cool, too awesome. When she heard that Cui Jian was going to make a deal with the killer, Yun Xinyue was immediately furious. How could he be so shameless?
Cui Jian saw Yun Xinyue's big, sincere eyes and could not help but remain silent. He turned to look at Xiao Bai and asked, "How is it?"

Xiaobai: "How many more days will you work for her?"

Cui Jian replied: "Two days."

Xiao Bai said: "Okay, we will not attack the target within 48 hours. But our requirement is that Dayin Security must not accept the target's renewal request."

Cui Jiandao: "I can only represent myself. Above me there is a manager, above the manager there is a boss, and above the boss there is the chairman."

Xiao Bai stretched out his left hand: "You are enough, just consider it as making a friend. My name is Richard, and I am an archery athlete."

Cui Jian shook hands with Xiao Bai: "My name is Cui Jian, and I'm a fisherman."

The two laughed, and Cui Jian stood up. After thinking for a while, he took Yun Xinyue's hand and asked her to leave with him. Even if she was not a killer, she was also a member of the killer's group, so there was no need to get too close.

Duanmu had been listening to their conversation online: "Is it credible?" Now that he could speak and understand Korean fluently, he did not avoid Kate.

Cui Jiandao: "I think it's worth using Kate's life to verify the credibility of a team. If Chunque is credible, we still have a lot of room for cooperation in the future."

Cui Jian then contacted Li Ran, who said, "You did a great job. There is no hatred between bodyguards and assassins, so if you can talk nonsense, don't do it. But as bodyguards, once we accept a project, we have an obligation to protect the safety of our employers. This is our professional bottom line."

Li Ran gave an extreme example: a bodyguard gets off work at 7 o'clock, and a killer appears at 7:1, and the bodyguard can ignore it. But before leaving get off work, he must do his best to protect his employer.

Li Ran said, "I will contact a foreign security company and ask them to provide follow-up security services for Kate." Li Ran was very happy that he could avoid a firefight. He seemed to have forgotten that no firefight should be the norm.

……

After lunch, Duan Cui still took Kate out. They were careful and alert all the way, and with Yiyi's help and protection, they did not find anything unusual. Two days later, Duan Cui sent Kate on the plane. As for Kate's security after landing, that was a problem that gave Duanmu a headache but could not be discussed.

As soon as the project was finished, Li Ran sent a new project, which was two entertainment industry projects that he carefully selected for the bodyguard team. He didn't believe that he had the physique of the god of death. One of the female star projects started four days ago, and Diudiu and Zhenzhen were in charge.

Cui Jian said that he was exhausted after working for seven consecutive days and needed to rest for two days. Duanmu thought about Kate and immediately agreed that he must rest for two days. Li Ran said helplessly, just two days.

Cui Jian did not go home immediately, but drove to the suburbs. He came here today to buy greenhouse mustard greens. Normally, mustard greens are very unpalatable, and are not common in supermarkets. However, mustard greens are not only easy to grow, but also very large in size, with one leaf comparable to an elephant's ear.

After finding a vegetable farmer and harvesting 100 kilograms of mustard greens, Cui Jian stuffed the back seat and trunk with them before driving back to the villa. Back in the villa kitchen, Cui Jian cleaned ten plastic jars and washed the mustard greens.

Xueying walked downstairs, put her hands behind her, and leaned against the kitchen door to watch Cui Jian busying himself. Cui Jian got annoyed by being watched, so he turned around to look at Xueying, who then looked up at the ceiling.

After a long while, Xueying spoke: "Thank you for calling the police for me last time."

Cui Jiandao: "Normally, you should blame me for not standing up, for only calling the police, and for not coming back earlier. Everything is my fault, everything is someone else's fault, and you have no responsibility at all." It sounds unreasonable, but in fact many people are like this. Some people beautify this idea as: It is better to waste others' energy than to waste your own energy.

The key to right and wrong lies in whether the other party is aggressive. For example, in the case of Zheng Mei, Cui Jian did not show any aggression towards Xueying from beginning to end. If Xueying blamed Cui Jian for not intervening more actively, which led to her suffering the pain of losing a finger, Cui Jian would have told Xueying to stay away from him.

In Cui Jian's opinion, no matter how little kindness outsiders show us, we should be grateful to them instead of blaming them for showing too little kindness.

After hearing what Cui Jian said, Xueying's face turned purple and she asked in dissatisfaction, "Do you think I'm such an unreasonable person?"

Cui Jian said: "You are not, thank you, I accept it."

Xueying said: "Then the agreement we made last time to treat each other as air is no longer valid."

Cui Jian said without even turning his head: "I object."

With a snort, Xueying turned and left.

After blanching the mustard greens in hot water in a pot, stuff them into a jar. The difference between pickled vegetables and preserved vegetables is that pickled vegetables do not use hot water, but salt. Preserved vegetables use hot water instead of salt.

After finishing preparing the preserved vegetables, Cui Jian casually prepared a lunch and served it out.

In the living room, the nurse was changing Xueying's dressing and re-fixing the splint.

Cui Jian put the pork and cabbage risotto on the table, turned around and got a can of iced cola, and then went back to the table to see Xueying sitting beside him, looking at him and the risotto. This is a risotto cooked with frozen broth. To put it simply, the rice is cooked in a pot until it is 70% cooked, and chili peppers, dried shrimps, diced pork and shredded cabbage are added during the process.

Cui Jian asked helplessly: "What do you want to do?"

Xueying: "The last agreement is void."

Cui Jian: "You don't have to change your opinion of me just because of my little help."

Xueying: "I can pay for digging a swimming pool."

Cui Jian: "How do you know I want to dig a swimming pool?"

"My mother said so." Xueying opened the tablet with one hand and placed it in front of Cui Jian: "This is the design I conceived for the yard."

The total area of ​​the villa is 220 square meters, the main building is 100 square meters, and the usable area is 120 square meters. The villa is 12 meters long and 10 meters wide, so it is unrealistic to dig a long swimming pool. Xueying designed a swimming pool that is 2.5 meters wide and 5 meters long, with a countercurrent system installed. Xueying learned that this system can be used for surfing in addition to swimming, and the countercurrent index and heating water temperature can be adjusted.

This system requires electricity, so the water and electricity in the yard need to be laid out first. In addition to the water and electricity layout and the swimming pool, Xueying also arranged landscape trees, roads, etc. according to her own ideas. The yard is designed very beautifully.

Cui Jian looked at Xueying suspiciously: "Did you design this?"

Xueying nodded: "I apologize for my rudeness before. To thank you for your reminder and help, I will be responsible for the water and electricity and the design and construction of the swimming pool, and bear all the expenses. Condition: I also have the right to use it, and the air agreement is invalid."

Xueying asked, "Do you agree?"

Cui Jian: “I agree.”

Xueying looked at the risotto, and Cui Jian said, "Don't think too much, just eat your takeaway. I only prepared one serving."

Xueying wanted to turn around and leave, but after hearing Cui Jian's final explanation, she smiled and said, "Can you prepare one for me tonight?"

Cui Jiandao: "This is complicated. You can eat here every day, but I don't have time to cook every day. And I only cook what I like and I don't accept orders."

Xueying said, "It's simple. I only eat breakfast on Mondays and Fridays, and three meals on Saturdays and Sundays. If you cook for these meals, please prepare an extra portion for me."

Cui Jian: "I'm sorry, I only remember the date, not the day of the week, and I don't want to add more responsibilities to my life." Once you agree to it, you have to do it. Every time you cook, you have to consider what day of the week it is and whether you should prepare an extra meal for Xueying. This goes against Cui Jian's original intention of cooking for his own happiness.

Xueying was dissatisfied: "You are so stingy."

Cui Jian: "It's not that I'm stingy. Cooking is my pleasure and I don't want to increase my cooking burden for other reasons. For example, you like shopping. If I ask you to bring me two lollipops of different flavors on the 3rd and 7th of each month, it will directly affect your shopping pleasure."

Xueying thought for a while, took out her phone and said helplessly: "Okay, I'll order takeout."

Cui Jian smiled and nodded with satisfaction.

Xueying saw Cui Jian moving the spoon and asked, "Aren't you going to be polite?"

Cui Jian: “No.” The rice absorbed enough soup, which was mostly good. Disadvantages: I talked too much nonsense with Xueying, which caused the rice to swell a bit and lose some chewiness.

Xueying stood up and said, "I'm beginning to suspect that my mother has ulterior motives towards you. You're not as good as she says you are."

Cui Jian asked: "What did she say about me?"

Xueying thought for a while and concluded: "Smart, brave, wise, cool and handsome."

Cui Jian asked, "What does that have to do with risotto?"

That's true. Xueying left speechlessly. Her own mother had never said that Cui Jian had any of the words such as magnanimity, tolerance, gentlemanliness, thoughtfulness, gentleness, understanding, and enthusiasm. Interestingly, her own mother only talked about Cui Jian's personal qualities, and what she didn't say were Cui Jian's external qualities.

Thinking of this, Xueying walked to the stairs and looked at Cui Jian again. She vaguely felt that there was a label of loneliness on Cui Jian's broad back, which made her feel distressed for no reason. He actually wanted someone to have dinner with him, right? Then she scolded herself, why did she feel sorry for him?
