When the waiter asked Catherine what she wanted to order, Catherine raised her head and before she could say anything.., xiao Wei beat her to it. “Let’s have two sets of B Meal, a bottle of’82 Lafite, and two cheesecake for dessert. Is that okay?”
After saying that, he turned his questioning gaze to Catherine.
Catherine’s gaze froze. She had been observing him closely, but she did not miss the concern in Xiao Wei’s eyes. She knew that he was doing this for her own good, to avoid the awkwardness of not being able to speak.
She nodded. Xiao Wei immediately closed the menu and handed it to the waiter. “Just the ones just now will do. Thank you.”
After the waiter left, Xiao Wei asked her in a somewhat reserved manner, “Catherine, where did you go during that period of time? I heard from my colleagues at the Bureau that you had an accident. Other than your throat, you didn’t hurt anything, right?”
Catherine took out a notepad and pen. She thought for a moment and wrote on it, “In the United States, I was slightly injured. I’m fine.”
After she finished writing, she held up the Notepad and showed it to him.
After Xiao Wei finished reading it, he was deep in thought. After a long while, he asked in a serious tone, “They are from the United States, right?”
Catherine nodded.
It was not surprising that Xiao Wei could guess that they were from the United States. Previously, they were loyal to the United States, so it was not a secret in the National Security Bureau.
As for her and Kristen’s involvement in the National Security Bureau, they were undoubtedly naked. Naked. Naked. It would be strange if the United States could swallow their betrayal.
“Are you feeling better now? There won’t be any side effects, right?”Xiao Wei asked with concern.
Catherine wrote, “Other than temporarily being unable to speak, everything is fine.”
“That’s good, that’s good.”Xiao Wei could not help but nod, as if he was relieved and grateful. Coincidentally, the waiter was serving the dishes. He smiled and said in a relaxed tone, “Let’s not talk about this anymore. Let’s talk about something else.”
Catherine smiled slightly, nodded, and said silently, “Okay.”
“Oh right, how are things with Christine Now?”He had seen through it. Since he was not her happiness, seeing that she was happy was nothing.
Catherine was slowly cutting the steak. When she heard his question, she put down her knife and fork and was about to write, but Xiao Wei stopped her in time. “There’s no need to write. Just say it. I’ve learned some lip language. Normal communication shouldn’t be a problem.”
Hearing this, Catherine was a little doubtful. “Really?”
Xiao Wei looked at her doubtful expression and understood her words. He couldn’t help but put on a straight face. “Do I look like I’m Lying?”
Catherine couldn’t help but laugh. She picked up her knife and fork again and said, “No.”
She tried to say every word very slowly. Xiao Wei understood, and in his heart, he felt that he was right to let go.
At least, she could pursue her happiness without pressure. At least he could have dinner and chat with her as a colleague.
That was enough.
..
In the evening, Christine returned to the hotel. She called her in the evening, but no one picked up. He thought she was resting and didn’t think much of it.
When he returned to the hotel, he found that she wasn’t in the suite at all!
Her phone was also left on the sofa by her.
No wonder no one picked it up!
It turned out that she had gone out a long time ago. When he was at work, he was still worried that she would be bored in the hotel alone, so he rushed back with a mountain of documents and rushed to the car.
He didn’t expect to be greeted by an empty room!
Pacing in the same place impatiently, Christine suddenly took out her phone and made a call. “Investigate Catherine’s current location for me, immediately!”
