Chapter 302 You have made it!
"Xiao Xi is going to Linhai with you, right? I was thinking of buying her so clothes for the trip. After all, she’ll be staying at your house for a while. She has to make a good impression on your parents."
"Mom, I already have lots of clothes. There are many in my wardrobe that I haven’t even worn yet."
Ning Xi raised her head again, her eyes full of helplessness.
Ever since she could rember, her parents would buy her new clothes every now and then, but she could never wear them all...
So much so, that every year they had to donate the ones that no longer fit.
"What do you know?"
Lan Xi didn’t care and gently reminded, "Those clothes you ntioned are fine to wear at ho, but not really suitable for going out. The clothes I’m buying this ti are all more on the obedient and quiet side."
"Also, once you’re at Ye Fan’s house, don’t act the sa way you do at ho. No sleeping in! Be diligent and help out with whatever you can, got it?"
This ti, before Ning Xi could say anything, Ye Fan hurriedly cut in, "Sister Lan, you’re overthinking. My parents are easy to get along with. They’ll definitely like Xiao Xi."
A girl who’s been pampered all her life is supposed to do chores at his house?
Not only was he unwilling to let her do so, but knowing his mom, she would absolutely never let Ning Xi lift a finger.
And more importantly, he himself couldn’t bear to let her.
Ning Xi pouted slightly, rembering the conversation she had with Ye Fan earlier today, and softly asked, "Mom, when are you planning to let and Ye Fan go to Linhai?"
"Why are you asking ?"
Lan Xi rolled her eyes at her daughter, "It’s up to you. You’re the one going to Linhai, not . Your dad and I have already agreed to it. Whenever you want to go, you can go."
"Really?"
"Of course!"
Ning Xi bit her lip and hesitated, "Then... is tomorrow okay?"
Lan Xi: "..."
So you were just waiting for this?
Had she known this would happen, she wouldn’t have spoken so generously!
Tomorrow... was a bit too soon. She wasn’t ntally prepared at all...
"Ahem—"
"Xiao Xi, have you really thought it through?"
Lan Xi paused for a few seconds, then tentatively suggested, "Isn’t that a bit too fast? How about waiting a few more days?"
"Too fast?"
Ning Xi scratched her head with her small hand, not realizing the deeper aning in her mother’s words, and mumbled softly, "We’re going to go sooner or later anyway. Now there’s still so ti before the college entrance exam results co out, so we might as well take this opportunity and go."
"That’s right."
How could Ye Fan not understand Lan Xi’s feelings at the mont? No matter how much she liked him, having her own daughter follow him to an unfamiliar place would naturally worry her.
It was only human.
He knew very well that this was the mont he needed to speak up, so he quickly added, "Sister Lan, don’t worry. Once Xiao Xi arrives in Linhai, I’ll make sure she video calls you every day. And with around, I promise she won’t suffer even a little bit."
Hearing this, so of the worry in Lan Xi’s eyes faded. She thought about it for a mont, then slowly nodded, "Alright, since you two have already discussed it, tomorrow it is. But you must be careful when you’re out having fun."
"Especially Xiao Xi. When you’re out and about in Linhai, make sure to wear a mask."
Lan Xi reminded her worriedly, "With your beauty, it could be trouble. You must protect yourself, understand?"
"Aiya, Mom!"
Ning Xi shyly lowered her head, her expression a bit bashful.
"Okay okay, I won’t say any more, happy now?"
Lan Xi shook her head helplessly. When it ca to this matter, this girl never had any self-awareness.
After speaking, she picked up the large bags next to her, gave her daughter a glance.
"I’m going upstairs to pack your luggage. Want to co with ?"
Ning Xi shook her head and pointed at the board in front of her, "Mom, I won’t go just yet. I haven’t finished this life-and-death problem set."
As she spoke, she stood up and walked to her mother’s side, wrapping her soft arms around her mother’s neck and giving her a kiss on the cheek. With a sweet smile, she said, "Thank you for all the trouble. Let your daughter be lazy for once, okay?"
"You!"
Lan Xi laughed and pinched her daughter’s cheek, the scene brimming with warmth.
With that, the matter was settled.
Ye Fan couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. If nothing unexpected happened, his mom would probably call him again tonight, but now he could finally speak with confidence.
Not easy at all!
After Lan Xi went upstairs, Ye Fan stayed with Ning Xi in the living room, working on life-and-death problems for more than two hours. After dinner, they went back to their own rooms and started packing.
Ye Fan’s luggage was already packed. After returning to his room, he took out his phone and called his mom.
As soon as the call connected, Ye Xian’s voice ca through.
"Xiao Fan, are you now thinking that when the general is out in the field, he doesn’t need to follow orders?"
"..."
Ye Fan naturally knew what his mother ant and let out a helpless laugh, "Mom, don’t scold yet. I’m calling because I have good news for you."
"Oh?"
Ye Xian exclaid in surprise, "When are you and Xiao Xi coming back to Linhai?"
These past few days, she hadn’t stopped thinking about this.
In her mind, that would definitely be the good news.
And in fact, it really was.
Ye Fan smiled and said, "The tickets are booked. It’s an 8 a.m. flight tomorrow morning. If all goes well, we should arrive at the airport around 1 p.m. Ask Uncle to co pick us up. Xiao Xi might have a lot of luggage. A taxi wouldn’t be convenient."
"Xiao Fan!"
The super loud voice made Ye Fan’s ears tingle. He pulled the phone away from his ear and switched to speaker mode, "Mom, let’s talk nicely, okay? No need to get all worked up."
The line went silent for a few seconds, then four words ca through:
"You’ve grown up!"
"..."
......
Ti moved to 11 p.m.
Ning Xi lay on her bed, the light sumr quilt clinging to her delicate body. Her graceful curves rose and fell gently, and her small, bare feet peeked out into the air—pure and innocent, yet slightly alluring.
She looked at the two suitcases at the foot of her bed, her eyes filled with anticipation and just a little bit of nervousness. Her soft hand searched by the pillow, picked up her phone, and sent a WeChat ssage to Ye Fan.
[Gege, are you asleep?]
[Not yet, just about to sleep.]
[I think I’m having insomnia. I’ve been lying here for over an hour and still can’t fall asleep. What should I do? / pitiful]
Seeing this ssage, Ye Fan’s lips curved into a smile. He thought for a mont and typed quickly on the screen.
[Don’t worry. I’ll always be by your side.]
After reading the ssage, Ning Xi’s cheeks flushed slightly as sothing stirred in her heart. Her nervousness eased quite a bit.
She didn’t know why, but every ti she thought of Ye Fan, her first instinct was to rely on him. Being with him felt happy and relaxing.
Maybe, perhaps, possibly... this is what liking soone feels like!
"Ptui—"
The girl covered her head with the blanket and muttered under her breath, "Hold on, Ning Xi, you have to hold on. You can’t fall for him so quickly!"
Outside the window, a light breeze began to blow, carrying the scent of the night, like a mysterious lullaby.
It gently lulled the two of them, each in their own room, to sleep—with the sa thought in their hearts...
