Chapter 1009: Tracking

He Xianmen saw this message and smiled without making a sound, replying: [Then I'll call you a pig mother from now on.]
Zhou Ruo: [.... Do you want to be slapped?]
He Xianmen found several pig emoticons and sent them over, about seven or eight.
Zhou Ruo: "Wait for me to come back and tidy you up [smile]"
He Xianmo: "Who tidies up whom"
Zhou Ruo ignored him this time, probably because she was angry with him.
He Xianmo looked at the previous few messages from her, and his smile became even more intense—maybe because he was always passive when he was with her, so occasionally making her angry gave him a sense of accomplishment.
He Xianmen waited for more than ten minutes with his phone, but there was no response from the other side, so he sent her another message.
He Xianmen: [Just teasing you, don't ignore me.]
Zhou Ruo: [Got it, I'll work first.]
Seeing this message, He Xianmo's heart finally settled down - he also guessed that Zhou Ruo would not get angry because of such things. She is a person who can handle it well, as can be seen from her reaction when she lost to him in rock climbing last time. As long as it doesn't touch her principles, she doesn't take jokes seriously in normal times.
When Zeng Xugang returned to the office, he saw He Xianmo laughing foolishly while holding a mobile phone. His attention seemed to be all on the phone, and he didn't even notice when someone opened the door.
Only that mysterious woman whom he had never met could make He Xianmo act like this.
Xi Xiangxi walked behind He Xianmo with great interest and tried to look at his phone. However, He Xianmo quickly realized it and immediately turned his phone over.
Zeng Xu only saw a few pink pig emoticons.
贺显谟对于曾旭这种“偷袭”的行为十分不悦：“看什么？”
曾旭打量着他看了十几秒，最后一边“啧啧”一边摇头，“咱俩认识快十年了，你都没给我发过这么可爱的表情包。”
贺显谟皱眉，手指紧了紧——曾旭还看见了什么？
“我现在越来越好奇是何方神圣让你这么上头了，”曾旭回味着贺显谟刚才抱着手机沉迷其中的模样，“arthur，恕我直言，你现在像个瘾君子。”
He Xianmen: "It's not that exaggerated."
Zeng Xu: "Those in power are often bewildered."
He is sharp with every word, "Otherwise, with your self-control, why would you knowingly do something that is not allowed?"
Hè Xiǎnmàn was silenced by Zēng Xù's question.
Zēng Xù patted Hè Xiǎnmàn's shoulder and said, "I won't say more. Take care of yourself."
I have advised him several times before, but Hè Xiǎnmàn didn't listen. He was even somewhat frustrated. Zēng Xù decided not to advise him anymore. Some things in this world just can't be changed. As a good friend, he would wait until Hè Xiǎnmàn gets dumped and then console him.
However, Zeng Xu was still very curious about this woman - Although He Xianmen may not have much experience in love, he is definitely not the kind of person that anyone can easily attract. There have been many women who have tried to show their interest in him, some of them with high status, but he never responded to them.
This person must have reached a higher level in the atmosphere.
Zeng Xu himself didn't know what he was thinking, but when it came to ranking, he instinctively thought of Zhou Ruo—probably because Zhou Ruo was the person he and He Xianmo knew at the same time with the highest ranking.
If Zhou Ruo went to provoke He Xianmin, she would probably be able to take him down, but unfortunately He Xianmin is not Zhou Ruo's type.
——
Zeng Xu was curious about the legendary woman, so he secretly followed He Xianmin on Friday.
First, Zeng Xu tried to find an excuse to ask He Xianmu to go out and have fun all night, but He Xianmu refused. So Zeng Xu asked him to meet tomorrow, but He Xianmu still refused.
Immediately, Zeng Xu concluded that He Xianmu must be going on a date with that woman.
Because we're going to spend the night together, I can't go out tomorrow either.
Zeng Xu found an excuse to leave work an hour early, but he didn't actually leave. Instead, he changed cars and parked near He Xianmo's parking spot, preparing to track him for a while.
Zeng Xu had no plans to do anything significant; he just wanted to see who that woman was.
After waiting for over half an hour, He Xianmo came out.
As he answered the phone, he walked towards the parking space. Zeng Xu bent down and couldn't hear what he said through the glass.
Soon, He Xianmen got on the car.
After Zeng Xu saw him start the car, he immediately stepped on the accelerator and followed, maintaining a distance that would not lose track but was relatively safe.
The hospital has many cars, and it happened to be during the rush hour, so it's not easy to be noticed.
Zeng Xu thought that even if he followed openly, He Xianmo might not notice - after all, he was so obsessed and probably already immersed in the joy of delivering someone to his bed.
Thoughts came to his mind, and Zeng Xu shook his head helplessly, finally understanding what it meant to be "bitterly disappointed".
Zeng Xu followed He Xianmo through the central street and drove for more than ten minutes before He Xianmo finally parked the car near a hotel.
After Hè Xiǎnmèn parked the car, he walked a little bit towards the hotel.
Zēng Xù didn't park the car, but slowed down and followed him.
Zēng Xù looked out of the window and saw Hè Xiǎnmèn's suspicious and guilty look as he looked around, which made him even more frustrated.
Having an affair feels like playing guerrilla warfare. For someone as proud as him, he still has to endure moral torture. What exactly is he trying to achieve?
Seeing this scene, Zeng Xu's resentment towards that woman intensified.
After following for about five or six minutes, He Xianmin had already stopped at the door of the hotel. He was still looking around, then he picked up his phone to check the time, as if waiting for someone.
Zeng Xu sat in the car with him, waiting.
After another three or four minutes, a Lincoln pulled up in front of He Xianmo, and then a woman got out of the back seat of the car.
She was wearing a camel-colored Burberry trench coat, stepping on high heels, carrying a handbag, and walked towards He Xianmo as soon as she got out of the car.
接着，那辆林肯也走了。
曾旭眯起眼睛来定睛去看，那女人刚好转过身要带着贺显谟往酒店里走。
曾旭成功看到了她的侧脸。
"I fuck—" Zeng Xu couldn't help but curse.
Why is it her?
——
He Xianmo and Gu Yu sat down in the restaurant upstairs at the hotel.
Gu Yu called a waiter and ordered two cups of juice, then took out a file bag from her laptop bag next to her.
贺显谟接过文件袋打开，看了一眼里面的片子，“你母亲现在已经到了是么？”
Hu Xianmen took the file bag and opened it, took a glance at the photos inside, and said, "Has your mother arrived now?" Gu Yu: "Yes, she fell asleep as soon as she came. I will take her around on Monday--"
"Tomorrow, then," He Xianmo said, "I don't have any plans for the weekend, so I'll help her check. The old lady's health is important."
Gu Yu: "Thank you so much for your trouble. I'll treat you to a meal later."
He Xianmen: "No need to be so polite."
Gu Yu: "We have to be polite. The situation was urgent this time, and I could only think of asking you for help."
Gu Yu's parents came to England to visit a while ago. When they were in Manchester, her mother suddenly experienced angina. They went to the local hospital but didn't find any problems. Her parents' English is not very good, and they are unfamiliar with the place. The best solution was to find a Chinese doctor.
Otherwise, there may be misunderstandings in the translation communication.
Gu Yu remembered that He Xianmo was a cardiovascular surgeon, so she told Zhou Ruo.
Zhou Ruo immediately created a WeChat group. After Gu Yu and He Xianmo had a conversation in the group, they decided to meet at the hotel where Gu Yu's parents were staying, so Gu Yu didn't need to go to another district specifically.
