Chapter 19
Worried that her mother would notice something strange, Xia Mu looked away guiltily, said "I'm going to do my homework", then turned and ran back to the house in a hurry.
Su Yumo didn't think much, and stared blankly at the direction of Jiangli's car. A warm hand suddenly wrapped around her shoulder——
"Go back to the house, it's cool at night."
Su Yumo looked back at her husband, without saying a word, turned her head and went upstairs to the bedroom.
Xia Ruian went upstairs after clearing away the water glasses in the living room. As soon as she opened the bedroom door, she saw his wife standing in front of the small balcony, talking on the phone.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Su Yumo turned her head vigilantly. While continuing to talk to the person on the phone, she waved eagerly, signaling her husband to close the door——
Only when talking about work, she would worry about her daughters hearing.
Xia Rui'an obediently and gently closed the door, and walked to his wife's side.
Su Yumo clung to the phone, frowning.
Seemingly dissatisfied with the answer from the other end, she responded impatiently: "I know your commission is not too much, I just want to take on a few more advanced tasks, and I don't need to sign a security agreement."
"..."
After listening to the answer from the other end, she paused, and then frowned dissatisfiedly: "No, I won't accept the assignments involving gangsters, and I won't accept clients with criminal records! Do you understand? I want legal, paid six grades." above tasks."
The response from the other end of the phone was still not satisfactory. Su Yumo looked solemn, and after a moment of silence, she replied in a low voice, "Okay, I'll think about it, and I'll give you an answer tomorrow. Okay, I'll contact you before seven o'clock tomorrow."
Seeing that she hung up the phone, Xia Rui'an asked softly, "Shall I heat you a glass of milk?"
Su Yumo shook her head, walked around him without saying a word, and sat on the bed.
Every time she feels anxious, she can't wait to take over the tasks for the first half of the year. She needs money, and more importantly, she needs to prove her ability.
Xia Rui'an sat next to his wife, and asked as gently as possible: "What did you just say you were considering? Xiao Song has a new mission? How much will it be paid?"
Su Yumo replied blankly: "16, 13 in advance, and [-] will be settled upon completion."
Xia Rui'an frowned suddenly - this amount of private work must not be clean.
"Calm down, Yumo, we must never touch anything involving gangsters."
Su Yumo replied indifferently: "It's just a task to protect the safety of customers' transactions. No matter what they trade, as long as we sign the task agreement, the responsibility will be borne by both the customer and the intermediary. What do we have to worry about?"
Xia Rui'an looked at her seriously: "The task of 16 yuan is nothing more than a diamond drug smuggling transaction, if something goes wrong halfway, the two sides will definitely exchange fire.
We have turned in all the equipment now, and the gang under the intermediary are all third-rate thugs. Do you plan to do it alone?What should I do if something goes wrong?Send the kids to an orphanage? "
Su Yumo frowned and turned her head away, thinking that his words were alarmist.
Xia Rui'an took a deep breath and persuaded: "Don't underestimate your opponents. Many of the underlings of the gang-related groups are retired agents with rich experience. We don't have any advantages."
"Then what should we do?" Su Yumo looked back at him, "Are we going to live like this for the rest of our lives?"
Xia Rui'an stared at her for a long time, then replied in a low voice: "Maybe, I mean maybe, we can accept the queen's help for the time being, and wait until..."
"No!" Su Yumo was instantly annoyed: "I am her most trusted subordinate, the ace agent of the empire, not a waste begging for mercy from my master!"
"Listen to me," Xia Rui'an pressed her shoulders: "I'm not asking you to accept her charity, but to borrow her money to make up the debt first.
In this way, we can get out, investigate the case ourselves, clear ourselves of the crime, get back the money and status that should belong to us, and there will be a large compensation.
If you rely on the crap of CGA to investigate the case, there will be no progress in the next life! "
Su Yumo closed her eyes, shook her head in pain, and replied in a hoarse voice: "The queen can only help me solve the current predicament at most, it is impossible to pay tens of millions to pay for my debts in one go, or His Majesty will find out.
You know how much His Majesty hates me. I promised him that I would not contact the Queen again, so I got the royal amnesty. Once he finds out that we have used their property, the amnesty will be revoked immediately, and we will go to jail. "

Early on Saturday morning, Xia Mu rushed to the West Street Pharmacy with her schoolbag and banknotes in her pocket.
The pharmacy has not opened yet, and there is no business hour on the rolling door.
Xia Mu stood at the door of the store and waited for 10, [-], [-] minutes. The number of passers-by gradually increased. Standing at the door was too conspicuous. She hesitated for a while, then turned and walked to the distant platform, intending to go to the pharmacy near the school to buy.
She quickened her pace and walked towards the platform along the side of the road. Suddenly, a car leaned against the side of the road and drove slowly beside her.
Xia Mu noticed the abnormality, and hurriedly quickened her pace to try to avoid it, but the car followed her like a fart.
Malicious harassment?
Xia Mu glanced sideways, and saw the car window slowly descending, revealing Jiang Wu's clean smile——
"Sister?" Xia Mu opened his eyes wide.
"Morning, my little companion." Jiang Wu was very satisfied with this new version of the young Gu Sheng.
Xia Mu: "..."
Unable to find a reason to shirk, Xia Mu had no choice but to hitch a ride along the way and go to school with the Jiang sisters. Fortunately, the effect of the medicine can last at least 24 hours, so it would be good to ask for a leave in advance at night.
Under the influence of the drug, Xia Mu's rehearsal in the morning was full of energy, and the whole crew was full of enthusiasm, except...
Only Her Royal Highness Egg Roll was confused.
For three full hours, I didn't smell the unusually sweet aroma from last night.
His Highness half-opened his small mouth and looked sideways at Xia Mu. Baozi's face was filled with the desperation of being deceived...
Then, something even more desperate happened——
During the intermission, the maid followed His Highness's instructions in the morning, walked onto the stage carrying a small environmental paper bag, and said enthusiastically to Xia Mu: "His Highness specially prepared a small gift for you!"
Hearing this, His Highness the Egg Roll suddenly turned around, trying to stop it, but the maid had already taken out the fresh milk pudding from the paper bag and handed it over respectfully.
His Royal Highness Eggroll's bowels were turning green with remorse, and his face was filled with grief, "Gu must have lost his nose last night", and he planned to find a reason to refuse.
But at this moment, the bad cat shouted in surprise: "Is this for me! Thank you, Your Highness!"
Your Highness Egg Roll: "..."
"You are not joking," His Highness trembled, took the fresh milk pudding from the maid, and handed it to Xia Mu in grief.
There is nothing left to explain.
Xia Mu was full of surprise, and took the pudding with both hands...
Take the pudding...
I can't take it at all!
Your Highness refuses to let go!
This little fat man must have regretted it.
Xia Mu pouted, and questioned Duan Zitong with the look of "Do you want to give it to someone, Your Highness?"
Duan Zitong narrowed her eyes and reminded her to let go with the look of "Can't you see it yet".
How could she let go!
This is the pudding given to her by the double S-level crown prince of the Voor Empire. The fans in the entire auditorium are witnesses. How much does it cost to resell it!
Xia Mu stared at the fresh milk pudding with downcast eyes, sank into her dantian, and exerted all her strength...Picking off His Highness's little fleshy fingers one by one, she finally got the gift "for her" from His Highness as she wished.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Xia Mu slightly bent her knees, lifted up her non-existent skirt, gave a standard ladylike salute to Duan Zitong, turned around and went to get the boxed lunch.
When stepping off the stage, Xia Mu happened to meet a lighting engineer who was stuck beside the steps with two spotlight effect lights on his shoulders.

Jiang Wu invited His Royal Highness Egg Roll to dine at the same table, and Tong Na quickly moved a chair aside.
Probably because she was too impatient, just as she walked to the table, her toes accidentally touched the legs of the chair, and she lost her center of gravity and fell forward——
Fortunately, Jiang Wu, who had sharp eyes and quick hands, caught him.
The deer man was timid, and Tong Na, who was about to fall, was so frightened that she was so weak that she was half-embraced by Jiang Wu and sat on a chair to rest.
This scene shocked His Royal Highness Egg Roll sitting opposite.
"Didn't she fall? Why does she seem to be injured?" His Highness looked at the maid suspiciously.
The maid leaned over to His Highness's ear, and replied in a gentle voice: "Omegas are very weak, especially in front of the alphas they admire, they will instinctively show a pitiable side."
His Highness nodded half understanding.
Just at this time, a sonorous and powerful familiar voice came from not far away——
"Let it go! Let it go!"
Your Highness followed the reputation——
I saw Xia Mu carrying two spotlights on his shoulders, and Kong Wu powerfully shuttled through the crowd...
Your Highness: "..."
Omegas are all very weak?
Xia Mu noticed His Highness's terrified eyes from the corner of his eyes, and quickly turned his head, showing a bright smile to His Highness, and also tilted his shoulders to keep the spotlight more stable.
Your Highness: "..."
Especially in front of the alpha that he admired, would he instinctively show a pitiful side?
Her Royal Highness Eggroll was very unhappy. What she smelled last night must be some kind of perfume.
This cat committed the crime of bullying the king.
-
As the evening approached, Xia Mu gradually felt weak, and the effect of the medicine was about to wear off. She didn't dare to wait any longer, so she hurriedly asked the assistant director for leave and left the school.
In the pharmacy, I asked about the prices of various brands of inhibitors. The cheap ones cost 600 yuan a box, while the expensive ones cost over two thousand yuan.
There is no big difference in the staying power of different brands, they all last for three months, but the salesperson said that the expensive one is pure plant extract, not only has no side effects, but also claims to moisturize and nourish the skin.
After all, it was the first injection, and Xia Mu added another 200 yuan to buy a mid-range brand that cost 200 yuan and [-] yuan.
There were three small glass vials and a set of injection equipment in a box of inhibitors. She was afraid that it would be crushed when she put it in her schoolbag, so she carefully carried it in her hand and went to the community hospital to receive free injection services.
She pushed open the glass door with one hand, and suddenly a figure flashed in front of her eyes, and a sudden force pulled the box away from her hand!
Xia Mu's heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively groped for the surrounding air, trying to grab back the expensive inhibitor.
I've seen people robbing money and bags, but I haven't seen people robbing medicines!
Xia Mu came back to his senses, and looked in the direction where the figure was leaving with a face full of shock and anger——
It was an unfamiliar face, with a threatening expression, it actually stopped in the distance, as if it was deliberately waiting for her.
Xia Mu chased after him without hesitation.
