Wen Qiong was very good and took good care of her. Ever since she moved here, Wen Qiong had come to visit her every day, brought her delicious food, accompanied her to relieve her boredom, and told her about Wei Yu.
But the only thing she didn’t tell her was what this place was.
She stood in the corridor and looked out several times. She guessed that this was a deep mountain, and at the top of it. There was a very tall signal tower beside it. This was probably a secret base.
And it was a national secret base.
Why did she say that? Because there are police officers outside.
Places guarded by police officers were either important national secret bases or she was overseas now, but those people didn’t look like foreigners.
After guessing, the CPU in Pei Jiao’s mind was about to explode. She still did not know what kind of place this was! She thought in distress that she would have known where she was if she could touch all the electronics now.
Also, she couldn’t go out.
She was really going to suffocate to death!
Wen Qiong waved her hand in front of Pei Jiao and asked her with a smile,
“What are you thinking about?”
Pei Jiao could not speak. She could only shake her head and take the green ball Wen Qiong had given her. She turned around and sat on the sofa.
Wen Qiong followed her and sat down beside Pei Jiao. “Do you want to go home?
When she heard the word ‘go home’, Pei Jiao’s eyes lit up. She suddenly turned around and looked straight at Wen Qiong, her expression was asking anxiously, “When can I go home?
Wen Qiong shook her head at Pei Jiao. “You can’t go home for the time being. The base has lost something very important. The investigation is very strict now. You should be here for nearly half a month.”
Hearing this, Pei Jiao looked up at the ceiling and did not say anything else.
Wen Qiong took a notebook and pen and placed them in front of Pei Jiao. “Your right hand is still recovering, but you can still move the pen occasionally. Why don’t you try to write your name first? Or write a string of phone numbers. I’ll help you contact your family.”
Pei Jiao looked at Wen Qiong from the corner of her eye. She did not say anything and looked like she was seriously considering it. She could be said to be extremely unlucky in this car accident.
She was covered in injuries from the car accident and her body was covered in bruises. Fortunately, her legs were not lame, but her hand was slightly fractured. She had a high fever at night and had a throat problem.
Because she was in a hurry to speak, her vocal cords were damaged.
However, only Pei Jiao knew Pei Jiao’s true situation now. It was true that her vocal cords were damaged and she could not speak, but her hands were actually not affected. She could hold chopsticks and comb her hair.
But she played a trick. Since she couldn’t speak, she might as well be completely disabled. So she used her hand gestures to tell them that her hand needed a recovery period because of the fracture. She couldn’t exert force for the time being, so she avoided writing communication.
The handwriting would leave something bad for her. Especially when she wrote her name.
Seeing that Pei Jiao was always distracted, Wen Qiong put down her notebook and pen and said, “I know you’re very anxious now, but this is an important base. Not to mention my husband, I don’t even have the right to let you go.”
Pei Jiao turned to look at Wen Qiong with a puzzled expression.
Wen Qiong guessed, “You want to know Wei Yu’s identity here?”
Pei Jiao was surprised. She could tell at a glance what she wanted to know.
Wen Qiong smiled faintly. “I’ll observe your expression based on what I said and guess what you want to know.”
Pei Jiao also smiled and waited for Wen Qiong to continue. However, Wen Qiong was only in charge of keeping her in suspense. “This can’t be said because your identity is unknown. If you’re a spy sent by the enemy, something big will happen.”
Pei Jiao was once again speechless.
Guessing that I was a spy and still came to feed me every day, Pei Jiao couldn’t help but wonder about the safety of the food.
Seeing that Pei Jiao was speechless and seemed to want to ignore her, Wen Qiong chuckled. “I’m just joking with you. Do you think I’m humorous?
Pei Jiao was once again speechless.
Next, Wen Qiong coaxed Pei Jiao to eat the green ball. Now, the food Wen Qiong brought every day was her test subject, and Pei Jiao was the guinea Pig. Fortunately, the food Wen Qiong made was not bad, but the color always looked strange.
It was nearing noon.
Wen Qiong went to get food for Pei Jiao. Pei Jiao waited patiently in the room for Wen Qiong to come back and feed her. She waited until two in the afternoon.
Pei Jiao was so hungry that her chest was almost touching her back. She was almost seeing double. Wen Qiong still had not returned. She was so hungry that she wanted to go out. As expected, she was stopped.
She couldn’t even go down the building now.
Pei Jiao gestured, wanting to express that she was hungry, but she had never learned how to gesture. The comparison was messy, and the two police officers could not understand it and ignored it.
In the end, Pei Jiao returned to the living room dejectedly. Other than the porridge in the morning, she had only eaten one green ball that Wen Qiong had brought in the morning. She was already extremely hungry.
She hugged a pillow in her arms and sat on the sofa in a daze. After that, she fell asleep from hunger. She didn’t know how much time had passed, but when she woke up again, she was woken up by the fragrance.
She suddenly opened her eyes. There was a bento box on the small table in front of the sofa. Even without opening it, the fragrance of the chicken was almost numbing Pei Jiao.
She threw away the pillow and was about to open the bento box in a hurry. Just as she was about to touch it, her hand paused. Sensing that there was someone in the room, she slowly looked up.
A tall figure stood in front of the cabinet. It was the elusive Wei Yu. He was unwrapping a document bag. He opened it and read it before closing it. Then he took the document and prepared to leave.
Before leaving, he glanced at Pei Jiao, who was sitting obediently on the sofa.
Seeing that she was looking at him eagerly, Wei Yu frowned. He was about to walk out when he turned to her and stood in front of her. “The base is very busy today. I’m sorry that I only brought you food now.”
Pei Jiao looked pitiful, but she was complaining in her heart. Damn it! Do you want me to starve to death? Look at the time! It’s four o’clock! It’s four o’clock!
She could no longer feel hungry. She was numb. No matter how fragrant the food was. it couldn’t whet her appetite. Of course. other than the bento box in front of her.
Pei Jiao pointed at the bento box. How could Wei Yu not understand? “Do you need me to open it?”
Pei Jiao nodded.
Wei Yu slowly leaned over and placed the document bag on the other side of the small table. When he was about to open her lunch box, his fingertips paused for a few seconds.
Why did he care about her? Forget it. There was nothing she could do now. It wouldn’t hurt to accommodate her. Persuading himself, Wei Yu quickly opened the lunch box. There was a big drumstick, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, two sweet and sour meatballs, cabbage and beans. They were all crammed into a lunch box. Each dish had a separate compartment, so it looked okay.
Although Pei Jiao was a rich young lady, her life was rough. The meal in front of her was considered very good to her. Seeing her eyes light up, Wei Yu smiled. He opened the packaging of her chopsticks for her and handed them to her. “Here.”
Pei Jiao was stunned, but she did not reach out to take it.
Wei Yu frowned slightly. “You’re not asking me to feed you, are you? Pei Jiao bit her lip. Although she did not nod, her expression clearly meant that.
Wei Yu put down his chopsticks. “I’ve observed for a while. Your hands shouldn’t be so bad that you can’t pick up your chopsticks to eat. If you don’t eat, it’s up to you.”
Pei Jiao took a deep breath and pressed her lips down. She looked like she was about to cry.
Wei Yu’s hand that had put down his chopsticks paused. He looked up at her and saw that she was looking down to hide her emotions. In the end, his heart softened. He replaced his chopsticks with a spoon and resigned himself to his fate. “Okay, I’ll feed you.”
From an angle where Wei Yu could not be seen, Pei Jiao smiled silently..
