"Is there anything else?"

"That's all, thank you."

Hanging up the phone, Yao Meng sat still in bed, looked out the window to see the light of the setting sun shine over the old houses which were like old, deserted ruins. She felt sad and feel the tears almost flow out from her eyes.

After a while, Yao Meng took out her phone and sent a text message: "Ji Bai, thank you for your guidance. I will follow Officer Wu, and I will work hard to live up to the expectations of the team. PS: If I encounter any problems in the future, could I ask for your help?"

She waited for quite a while, but Ji Bai still hadn't replied. After Yao Meng went down to eat a little, washed the dishes and cleaned the floor, just then, the phone rang. Yao Meng held the phone, it was a text from Ji Bai: "It doesn't really matter who leads you because whoever your mentor is, it's just a small factor. It's all up to you to make your own achievements. Being my apprentice or someone else's, there is no difference. Work hard!"

After eating dinner at her workplace, Xu Xu went home. She was living at a place called "Royal Courtyards". Xu Jun bought the house at the beginning of the year. It was located in the financial district, and had always been a place where elites gather.It was very safe, and was also close to Xu Xu's workplace.

Since it was still early, Xu Xu changed her clothes, took out a towel, put on her headphones, and headed out. There was new park close by. She planned to run a couple laps, then go home to continue her work.

Since it was still early, the park was covered with a color of green . Xu Xu ran slowly along the small path. There were also many people around who were exercising, including youths, the elderly, and young children. Xu Xu turned on the music really loudly while leisurely maintaining her speed, which was as slow as walking, while her eyes glanced at the views around.

This was the most peaceful time of the day for Xu Xu. Sometimes she zoned out, and sometimes she felt like watching the people around while imagining about each of them.

The first lap.....

There was a father and daughter playing around, sitting on the grass on the right. The little girl pointed at her, laughing and saying something, and the father also smiled. Xu Xu swept an indifferent gaze over the little girl; she guessed that the little girl was laughing at her slow speed.

There was a white-haired old man sitting in a pavilion holding a radio, he was squinting his eyes.

Under the shadow of a corn plant, there was a man and a woman talking happily. The woman was around 30 years old, while the man was younger in age. They are quite close, but not intimate. Chances are that they were siblings.

The second lap...

The father and daughter were holding hands to stand up. The little girl again looked at Xu Xu, laughing. Xu Xu was indifferent and looked elsewhere.

The white-haired old man was nowhere to be found.

The man and woman were still there, but they were now sitting on the grass.

The third lap...

The sky was getting dark; there were fewer people around. This was a work area and high-end residential neighborhood. Closer to night, not many people came to the park.

The grass was only left with the man and woman talking. The man placed a hand on the woman's shoulder, laughing while saying something to her. The woman also smiled, the woman leaned back, and her posture was very elegant and eye catching.

Xu Xu indifferently looked away.

Just then, the women suddenly yelled.

Xu Xu stopped and looked back. She saw that the woman's mouth is wide open, and she had raised her right hand. Her hand was covered in blood. Blood from her wrist was gushing out. The man next to her was frozen.
