"Son, if you are upset, don't keep it to yourself, talk to mom~" Ye's mother said sadly, her voice choked with sobs, "Although mom doesn't understand a lot of things, it's better to speak them out than to keep them in your heart!"
Night Owl's body was shaking violently, and he gasped heavily a few times, as if to calm the pain in his heart that was being cut into pieces by a thousand knives.
"My child... our child, was killed by her..." In the darkness, Ye Xiao's voice was extremely hoarse. Ye's mother was startled and hugged her son tightly, only to hear him continue: "You said, she had feelings for me..."
He smiled, as if he was mocking himself, or as if he was smiling bitterly, "If she had any feelings for me, how could she kill my child? How could she kill my child! That's our child! That's her and mine!"
He repeated the last words biting his teeth, his emotions gradually reaching the edge of collapse, and he pounded his fists on the wall hysterically. He never stopped even when his hands were bloody.
How could she be so cruel and heartless? !
"Ye Xiao, stop torturing yourself! Mom begs you, please don't hurt yourself anymore!" Ye's mother was so heartbroken that tears streamed down her face, and she hugged Ye Xiao's hand.
Night Owl only felt a sudden pain in his heart.
The next moment, his body shook. Ye Mu screamed and reached out to help him, but it was too late. With a dull thud, his heavy body fell heavily to the ground, and then he lost consciousness.
"Doctor Tang! Doctor Tang!" Ye's mother screamed.
In an instant, the whole room became lively. Tang Song rushed up, and Nalan also hurriedly ran into the room.
… … … …
Bai Suye took leave for the next 20 days.
During these 20 days, she did not go anywhere and slept for 20 days in Zhongshan. The old lady wanted to make her fatter, but she just couldn't gain weight. Bai Yeqing would get her up early every morning for a run, and she would not refuse. Exercise would always make people feel better.
But she knew very well...
Those happy moments were just illusions, performed just for the people who cared about her.
But what I get is torment every moment of the night.
When she returned to the National Security Bureau, Bai Lang was sitting at his desk looking through intelligence documents with his brows tightly furrowed.
"What are you looking at?" Bai Suye passed by his office and knocked on the door.
The white wolf raised his head and saw that it was her. He almost immediately put away the intelligence information.
"What are you hiding?" Bai Suye saw through his abnormality at a glance.
"Nothing. Minister, are you done with your leave?"
"Um."
Bai Suye walked in slowly. Bai Lang quietly pushed the information to the bottom, but Bai Suye had seen through his tricks and reached out to grab the information.
What she saw stunned her.
During these 20 days, Ye Xiao had taken over all of Ferens's work, including personally negotiating the arms trade with the three neighboring countries around Country S.
White Wolf stole a glance at her expression before slowly speaking, "As soon as Night Owl came up, he pushed forward these cooperation projects quickly. In less than 10 days, one country's contract has been signed. If nothing unexpected happens, the remaining two contracts will also be signed in the next two months. So... Now Night Owl has replaced Ferens and has become our first target. Moreover, this time, the military has given us the highest level of combat readiness, and the intensity of the strike is unprecedented."
Bai Suye's breathing became heavier, and he was absent-minded for a long time. After a while, he asked, "Did you hurt him?"
"We intercepted him abroad a few days ago. Although we didn't hurt him directly, we did hurt his men."
"Yu An?"
"… Um."
Bai Suye's breathing was tense.
"In order to retaliate against us, Night Owl has made a series of major moves. Not long ago, it exported oil to Country E at the lowest price in history, which directly led to the interruption of our country's oil business with Country E. The domestic economy was affected and weakened, and the stock market was turbulent. This morning, people from the Chamber of Commerce were directly recruited into the Presidential Palace."
Bai Suye said nothing, but slowly put the information down. She had been in Zhongshan for so many days, and no one had mentioned anything about Night Owl to her.
She didn't know that he and Country S had already reached the day of openly falling out.
The last time the relationship broke down was ten years ago. In the past ten years, the Night Owl has grown stronger and stronger, and its presence has become stronger and stronger, so much so that many countries are busy trying to appease them and dare not provoke them at will.
But now...
If the two sides continue to fight like this, both sides will undoubtedly suffer in the future. If Ye Xiao and Feirens are angered, all parties in Country S will be threatened in the future. However, if Country S is offended, Ye Xiao's life will hang by a thread every day...
There's still a bullet lodged in his heart...
"Minister?" Bai Lang called her and looked at her worriedly.
Bai Suye finally came to his senses and said, "I'm going back to my office. Let's have lunch together. Thank you for taking care of me before."
"Don't be so polite. It's only natural to take care of your superior." Bai Lang smiled and saluted.
Bai Suye said nothing more and turned to leave. For a moment, he was filled with worries.
She shouldn't worry.
Ye Xiao had already married Na Lan, and besides... they had already severed their relationship...
No matter how worried she is, it's not her turn.
Her heart ached again. She hurried back to her office, took out the pills from her bag, poured some drinking water, and swallowed several pills in a row.
"Minister." At this moment, the office door was pushed open from the outside.
Bai Suye suppressed the emotions in her heart and looked at Secretary Chen at the door calmly, "What's wrong?"
"The director has instructed you to go to his office as soon as you return to work."
Bai Suye held the water cup, her lips pressed against the edge of the cup, and seemed to be thinking about something. After a while, she nodded, "I know, I'll go up right away."
"Okay." Secretary Chen took the **** out. Before leaving, he turned back and said, "Minister, please take care of yourself. Just now... It's best not to drink cold water in this weather. I'll get you a glass of warm water."
"Just now..." The words after that were omitted, but Bai Suye knew she was talking about miscarriage.
It's just a little early, but my heart still aches.
She put the cup down and said calmly, "No need, I'll go upstairs right away, and I'll pour it when I come back."
… … …
Bai Suye took another big gulp of cold water, tidied herself up, and went upstairs.
The director had already asked his secretary to pour some water and was waiting for her in the office.
"Have a drink of water." The director personally brought the water to Bai Suye.
She didn't hesitate to take a sip. She didn't speak actively, just waiting for the other party to make his intentions clear.
"Now that you're back to work, you should be well again, right?" the director asked, looking at her inquiringly.
