To Bai Xia Xia, studying elementary Math and Chinese, it was not an easy thing. Really, wanting to hold down conditioned reflexes, it was something difficult.

In her last life, she was not a top student either, she just studied normally. Madly studying on workdays and crazily playing on holidays, and never finishing homework once after middle school.

Her grades were not bad or good, and she got into a key university after doing the gaokao[1].

A college graduate cat putting on the disguise of a cat that did not know the primary school curriculum, stumbling all the way, many times, she was seen through by the keen-eyed Qin Xiao. But Qin Xiao actually let Guo Chao Ming bully her and did not help her say anything.

Bai Xia Xia’s road of studying primary school curriculum, was filled with unspeakable bitter tears.

It was night, Bai Xia Xia laid flat into a cat cookie. The liquid cat that had gone through a day of class was too lazy to care about comrade Guo’s sneaky rua, tomorrow, she could finally go out.

Sniff, sniff, sniff, studious Cat is on vacation, I’m so excited that my tears are falling.

The street lights in the dark night were bright and magnificent; Bai Xia Xia saw a figure that was a bit familiar.

White coat, long legs, jeans, hm? That young male doctor with a pair of peach blossom eyes?

As this thought flashed through Bai Xia Xia, the incandescent lamp above her head silently went out, and the smothered sound of something blowing up made the whole ward shake once.

“Ah!”

“An earthquake?!”

Bai Xia Xia immediately heard flustered and rapid footsteps, noisy and clamorous speaking sounds and shouts, and the sound of doctors and nurses loudly yelling to stop and preserving order.

And among that noisy crowd, Bai Xia Xia distinguished several hurried but orderly footsteps, coming up from the first floor stairs, rushing towards the same target.

Are they going to the fourth floor to save people? This thought jumped out to Bai Xia Xia first. However, the footsteps stopped on the second floor stairway, as if they were getting closer to this side quickly.

Outside was noisy and raucous; Guo Chao Ming was already pressed up to the door at once, with his hand pressed behind his waist.

The reason why he was left here, it was exactly because they wanted to be prepared for any eventuality.

The only thing was that the outside was overly noisy, so they could not distinguish anything at all.

On the other hand, Bai Xia Xia could hear out that those footsteps seemed to have stopped. Someone was …[2] in the hallway, but they were separated by quite a distance, plus the fact that messy sounds were mixed in, it really was not easy to distinguish anything.

Hm?

All the fur on Bai Xia Xia’s body suddenly exploded, “Meow!”

She jumped down from the window and ran towards the ward, rushing to Qin Xiao’s side, then her small head touched his arm: “Wtf! There’s someone climbing up!”

What’re these people doing? They aren’t going to save people, what’re they running to Qin Xiao’s hospital room for?

“Don’t move!” Guo Chao Ming pressed down in a smooth motion the Qin Xiao that wanted to stand up, the undisciplined face that normally carried a smile faintly carried the edge of a sharp knife out of its sheath.

Guo Chao Ming silently stuck to the window like a cat and looked down, Bai Xia Xia hurriedly warned: “Up! Up!”

The cat paw was lifted up, “There’s still some distance!” Her hearing was out of the ordinary, the hallway was noisy and it was not easy to hear. Immediately after there was some movement from the guy that was stuck on the wall and climbing down, the cat could already hear it.

Qin Xiao held down the excited cat head, his expression cold: “They’re probably thinking about creating a diversion[3], stupid.”

Sparing some manpower to target me, there’s no need for that at all.

“Not necessarily, what if by any chance it’s your enemy?” Guo Chao Ming hung out of the window like a monkey with one hand holding on to the window edge, he seemed to have thrown something up.

Bai Xia Xia heard the scream of a heavy object landing on the floor.

Cough… are they so useless?

Qin Xiao: “Old Liao doesn’t seem to have this much of a big value, cutting off the circuit, and even the electric room was also destroyed; these people don’t seem like some simple smugglers, even kidnappers would not do something like this.”

Smugglers’ guts aren’t this big, to attack the hospital in the middle of the night, and even dynamite was used.

This matter… has become big.

“Guo Zi, go up and see what’s happening.” Qin Xiao pondered for a moment, “Today, Captain Li and the others took some people to wrap up the net, this is right when the hospital is lacking manpower, so there’ll be a mess up there.”

“It’s best if you can save Old Liao’s life.”

Guo Chao Ming: “No way! If I go, who’ll protect you?” He knew that Li Ai Guo had left some people, but outsiders were not as safe compared to him.

“Nothing will happen to me, they don’t dare to really make a move against me. They’re only trying to divert some manpower, plus, I’m only injured, I’m not paralyzed yet.”

Guo Chao Ming: “My mission is to protect you.”

“Today’s situation… if Captain Li isn’t here, who’ll be able to withstand what’s happening up there?” Li Ai Guo had underestimated the importance of Old Liao, they did too.

“Captain Qin!”

Someone charged into the ward from the hallway, their appearance could not be seen properly because of the darkness. Guo Chao Ming exchanged codes with them, and after making sure that they were their own people, in the end he lifted his feet and left the ward.

Behind him, a silent Persian cat followed.

Guo Chao Ming only discovered it when he was already up on the third floor: “Go back fast!”

The cat lightly jumped into the staircase, surpassed Guo Chao Ming, and ran up: “You stupid guy, I’m coming to help.”

The Persian cat melted into the night, and its paws stepped on the floor; Guo Chao Ming already could not find it, so he could only let the cat follow.
