C5 (2/2)

I slept soundly and did not wake up until seven in the evening.

When I saw the clock on the wall, I sat up in shock!

What the heck is going on? Why didn't anyone call me when the shift was over?

Tuk, tuk, tuk …

Just when I was feeling depressed, a knock on the door suddenly came over. I was startled and subconsciously touched my right wrist.

But what made me feel desperate was that the wooden bull that I had been wearing on my right wrist had disappeared!

Creak …

Just when my mind was still in a state of shock, the main door of the duty room opened a crack. Seeing this, I immediately took a few cautious steps back!

However, when the person carrying two lunchboxes came in, I couldn't help but be a little dazed.

It was none other than the aunt of the little girl I brought to the hospital yesterday. Furthermore, she might have been short on time the day before, so she appeared to be a bit slovenly. Today, after being groomed and groomed, she seemed like a perfect beauty.

”You're awake? I don't know what you like to eat, so I got you some. ”

Seeing that I was still looking at her with a stupefied expression, she couldn't help but blush. He hastily placed the lunchbox on the desk, then turned around with a bashful expression and said, ”Hello, thank you for saving my Xiaomei yesterday. My name is Zhang Shimin, please take care of me.”

After saying that, Zhang Shimin lowered her head and bit her lips. In the end, as if she had made an important decision, she directly grabbed my hand and shook my hand.

To be honest, I've been a bachelor dog all these years. Zhang Shimin's hand was the first woman's hand I touched besides my mother. It was so greasy that it made me feel dizzy.

I had never chatted with a girl before, and I didn't know how to break the silent atmosphere. Thus, what should have been a romantic dinner turned into an extremely awkward situation.

After finishing the meal and cleaning up her things, Zhang Shi Min didn't have the slightest intention of leaving. Seeing this, I could only ruminate over any topic that could be used to lighten the atmosphere.

”Where did you buy this wooden bull?” So delicate! Can you give it to me? ”

I was shocked and immediately grabbed her wrist. ”Why is the item here?”

”That what? When you were sleeping earlier, I saw that the wooden ox was pretty, so I took it off.”

After saying that, Zhang Shimin's face flushed red. Only then did I realize that something was wrong and hurriedly let go of her hand.

When I saw her looking at me innocently, as if this wooden cow really wasn't sent by her family, I couldn't help but recall the old man's ghost and the insurance company's eccentric words. I couldn't help but feel a trace of apprehension.

After that, I told him everything that happened last night when Old Liu brought the wooden cow to find me, while Zhang Shimin listened to my story with her bright and clear eyes that were filled with disbelief.

”No, no. We wanted to thank you for coming, but by the time we got home from the hospital last night, it was already very late. Originally, I wanted to call you over for lunch, but I couldn't find you during the day. So, at night, I found a chance to make you a meal. ”

Hearing this, I couldn't help but mutter in my heart.

What I am sure of is that this wooden cow was not given to me by Zhang Shimin and company to thank me. But this wooden bull saved my life last night, that is an indisputable fact!

So why did the ghost of the old man and the insurance people say that in the daytime?

Putting aside the ghosts of the old man, the insurance company's man was obviously an expert. If he wanted to do me harm, it would be easy. In that case, there was no need to lie to me!

Then who was Old Liu, who had sent me the wooden bull to save him? For what purpose?
