The two of them played wildly, and Lin Feifei’s pent-up emotions over the past few days were completely released.
She gradually leaned her head on Li Xiang’s shoulder, feeling a sense of security at this mont.
"I really wish I could stay this happy forever."
Lin Feifei whispered, "Everyone envies for being a singer, a celebrity, making lots and lots of money, but I’ve never been happy."
Li Xiang didn’t speak. She knew how hard it had been for Lin Feifei to co this far from being an orphan.
So she lent her shoulder to her, being a silent listener.
"But only I know how much stress I’m under. I can’t sleep at night and can only rely on sleeping pills to fall asleep."
"There’s endless practice and recording, everything pushing you forward. This is not the life I want. Actually, thinking about it, it’s not so bad now. At least no one is forcing you anymore."
"Even going to jail isn’t so bad; they even provide food and shelter."
Li Xiang was speechless: "Is operating a sewing machine okay too?"
"That’s not good. I don’t want to operate a sewing machine, I just want food and shelter."
"Stop overthinking. It’ll be alright." Li Xiang felt sorry for her. Indeed, everyone shining on the outside has unknown struggles behind them.
For a mont, neither of them spoke.
Li Xiang didn’t dare to move, just quietly watched the fireworks others set off in the square.
"Oh no, Tang Yuan hasn’t eaten yet."
Suddenly, Li Xiang rembered that Tang Yuan at ho hadn’t eaten yet. In the past, there was only herself at ho, so if one person was full, the whole family was not hungry. Now, it’s different. There was an extra Tang Yuan at ho, too small to feed itself. She needed to go back to bottle-feed it.
Thinking of this, Li Xiang called to Lin Feifei, only to find that she didn’t respond; looking down, she realized she had fallen asleep.
"Feifei? Don’t sleep here; you’ll catch a cold."
But calling her twice, she responded like a dead pig, with no reaction at all.
She probably hadn’t slept well the past few days, and today, with a bit of alcohol, she fell into a deep sleep.
"What to do now? I don’t even know what hotel you’re staying in."
Li Xiang was at a loss, unable to wake her, now lying asleep in his arms.
"Forget it, let’s go back first."
It’s cold outside; if you catch a cold, it won’t be good.
Using her phone, she called for a car, and Li Xiang carried her into it.
With Li Xiang’s 11-point strength attribute, holding her was still relatively easy. Weighing her, she probably didn’t even weigh a hundred pounds.
Back ho, Li Xiang placed her on his own bed.
Looking at Lin Feifei’s face at such close distance, her slightly trembling eyelashes, her flushed cheeks from drinking, she was really a lovely person.
"Woo woo~"
Tang Yuan’s whimpering sound startled Li Xiang, who had just been lost in a daze.
"Look but don’t touch."
Coming back to his senses, Li Xiang started making milk powder for Tang Yuan; today’s little fellow was starving.
After feeding Tang Yuan, Li Xiang’s parents also called to ask if he had eaten and what he had.
After a brief conversation, he hung up, and Lin Feifei was still not awake.
The apartnt Li Xiang rented was a single-room, with only one bed, no extra sofa, and not even an extra quilt at night.
"I’ll just lie down simply, not get under the covers."
"It’s a little cold, I’ll just cover with the quilt, doing nothing else."
Li Xiang lay awake, with no sign of sleep.
Ti was difficult to endure, so he decided to raid a dungeon.
After finishing it, the Maga Skill had also been upgraded to advanced.
Couldn’t sleep, just couldn’t sleep.
Staying awake through the night, finally till dawn.
Li Xiang quickly got up, washed up, and went out for a morning run.
Sleeping in the sa room, the sa bed as a great beauty, and doing nothing at all, who would believe it if told?
But he really did nothing, stayed up all night.
Who else could do this?
On the dawn of New Year’s Day, the streets were almost empty.
After running a lap, Li Xiang planned to buy so breakfast, only to rember that breakfast shops also don’t open on New Year’s Day.
So he had no choice but to head back ho.
Just reaching the door, he already heard the sound of water in the bathroom inside.
Assuming she was showering, he waited for the water to stop before unlocking the door.
"Awake?"
"Hm, is this your ho?"
Lin Feifei had just washed her face in the bathroom, knowing she had drunk too much last night, and didn’t know how she ended up asleep; this morning, seeing her clothes intact, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yes, last night you drank too much, and I didn’t know where your hotel was, so I brought you back."
"Sorry for the trouble." Lin Feifei felt a bit embarrassed but couldn’t deny that last night’s sleep was really comfortable, sothing she hadn’t experienced in a long ti.
Strangely enough, she could sleep so peacefully in a strange environnt and beside soone she’d only t a few tis.
"No trouble, have so Tang Yuan. I’ll cook them."
Before the New Year, Li Xiang had prepared so Tang Yuan in the fridge, making them now was quite convenient.
At this mont, Lin Feifei had ti to properly observe Li Xiang’s apartnt.
It was a small layout with one bedroom, one kitchen, and one bathroom. The furnishings were simple but very clean.
"Did you rent this apartnt?"
"Yes, five hundred a month, a place to call ho."
Lin Feifei didn’t speak, but was thinking about the news she had seen a few days ago. Li Xiang seed to have donated all 300,000 yuan of the reward money to the victim’s family.
At first, she thought Li Xiang’s family must be very wealthy, but now she realized she was wrong.
Li Xiang himself lived in a 500-yuan-a-month apartnt, yet could casually donate 300,000 yuan.
Such a person she could only see on TV or in the news before, unexpectedly soone really did this.
All of a sudden, she was very interested in Li Xiang.
"Wow, you even have a puppy?"
Seeing Li Xiang making milk powder, feeding a small black puppy, Lin Feifei suddenly beca interested and ca over to take the bottle and started feeding it herself.
"So cute!"
"His na is Tang Yuan. I just got him a few days ago."
"He’s so small; where’s his mom?"
"Dead!"
Lin Feifei stroked Tang Yuan’s shiny fur, feeling sorry: "Poor thing, without a mom at such a young age."
After feeding Tang Yuan, Li Xiang’s Tang Yuan was also ready.
After eating the Tang Yuan, Lin Feifei’s phone rang again.
This ti it was the special task force. She sighed and put it on speaker:
"Miss Lin, we’re sorry to disturb you on New Year’s Day, but the case is urgent. Could you co to the police station today? We have so details to confirm with you."
"Sure, I’ll be there in a while."
Seeing Lin Feifei’s mood sink again, Li Xiang couldn’t bear it and said, "I’ll go with you."
"Thank you, Li Xiang, it’s so nice to have you around."
This sentence ca from the bottom of her heart.
In her most difficult ti, her friends were not around, and her assistant was on holiday due to the New Year. At this ti, having Li Xiang by her side made her feel very secure.
