Nanxi County, in front of a night snack stall.
Chen Xiao brought Luo Dali, Xiaoji, and Xiaoji Knife Man to sit down.
This was Chen Xiao making up for Luo Dali getting beaten up by treating them to a al.
After all, in order to fool Liu Guai, Luo Dali took those hits solidly!
However, after sitting down, Xiaoji and Xiaoji Knife Man exchanged a glance and then looked at Luo Dali in doubt; they didn't understand... didn't understand why their Brother Dali had turned into this.
Luo Dali kicked each of them: "Why are you looking at
like that?"
Xiaoji lowered his head and mumbled: "A prodigal turning good, it just doesn't feel real, too dreamy."
Xiaoji Knife Man smirked: "Yeah, what kind of deep and unforgettable experience could make a guy who never gets entangled turn so honest?"
Luo Dali opened a bottle of beer and gulped it down in one go.
"Both of you stop with the sarcasm, your brother is genuinely determined to turn good. Not for anything else, just for my Xiu'Er!"
"Pfft...!" Xiaoji sputtered beer out in disbelief and asked: "No way, Brother Dali, do you really like Sister Ye Xiu?"
"Have you ever seen a girl more worth cherishing than your Sister Ye Xiu?" Luo Dali said, and his eyes beca misty:
"Clearly such a weak girl, but think about it, has she ever been fragile? She left ho to work in the south at a young age to support her own sister's education. Now, her sister t with misfortune, and it's her, a re girl, who repeatedly seeks the truth. This girl's personal charm has blown away all those empty beauties I've ever t!"
Saying this, Luo Dali gulped down more beer, then cautiously looked at Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao knew what he ant and said: "If you truly feel there's destiny between you and Ye Xiu, then pursue her with your ability; I won't put in a good word for you, but I'll also not speak ill of you."
Luo Dali took a deep breath: "No, I want to see what Heaven thinks!"
Chen Xiao was curious: "What do you an by that?"
"If there's truly destiny between us, we will et again one day. Hmm... When I sent Xiu to the airport, I told her that if work was too hard, she could co to Dongzhou and work with
in ho appliances, and she said she'd consider it."
Chen Xiao laughed: "So you are waiting to see if she has feelings for you, right?"
"Yes, but before she cos, I must stick to my own path and greet her with a brand new self!"
Chen Xiao nodded in agreent: "Don't talk about her, I believe Uncle Luo and your mom would be delighted with your change."
"You must be joking... My parents would be overjoyed if they knew I was interested in soone like Xiu'er. She is the dream daughter-in-law they've always talked about!"
"Alright, enough about that. Let's have a good al tonight, brothers."
Chen Xiao said, opening a bottle of beer for himself. But just as he was about to drink, Lin Xi's call ca in.
Thinking about Lin Xi, Chen Xiao imdiately bead: "Hello, Goddess of Fortune, how are you?"
"Ah?" Lin Xi was montarily stunned and then exclaid joyfully: "So, does it an you caught him?"
"Of course."
"That's great, I knew my husband is the best. Those others are small fry compared to you." Lin Xi was very happy.
Chen Xiao grinned: "Have you gotten off work now?"
"I'm just about to head ho."
"Perfect, I didn't feel like calling Captain Zhang, could you let him know to coordinate quickly with Qingxi? I think it's safer to take Chen Yan to our Dongzhou."
Chen Xiao said, and after Lin Xi agreed, she asked: "Now that everything is settled, when are you planning to co ho?"
"I'll return tomorrow."
"Alright, I'll pick you up at the airport."
"Why go to the trouble? I still have to make a visit to the Guo Family."
"It's no trouble. By the ti you get off the plane, you'll definitely see ." Lin Xi said, and Chen Xiao wanted to dissuade her, but then Lin Xi's lowered voice ca through the phone: "Don't stop , I... miss you."
Chen Xiao beca montarily dazed.
Saying such things!
The impact of such words on a man is akin to a nuclear weapon!
"Alright, see you at the airport."
After hanging up, Chen Xiao put his phone aside and quietly lowered his head to eat.
Only eating could suppress the turmoil in his heart at this mont.
After eating and drinking, Chen Xiao bid farewell to Luo Dali and the others.
Because he had to return to Jiang Province early the next morning!
Upon reaching Qingxi City, Chen Xiao booked himself into a hotel and then made calls to Hu Yue and Mrs. Yu, informing them of his departure the next day.
On the phone, Hu Yue was reluctant and wanted to treat Chen Xiao to another al, but Chen Xiao politely declined.
Even Mrs. Yu was the sa, thinking of keeping Chen Xiao for a few more days to show their hospitality.
But Mrs. Yu had just lost her son, so how could Chen Xiao accept such an invitation? Hence, he politely declined all of them.
The next morning, as Chen Xiao just walked out of the hotel, he found a car already waiting for him.
He initially thought it was Hu Yue coming, but it turned out to be Wen Baohui, who had partnered with him briefly at the county bureau.
Upon seeing Chen Xiao, Wen Baohui said with a bit of grievance: "Mr. Chen, you really threw people off quite decisively."
Chen Xiao gave an awkward smile: "Sorry, Officer Wen, the situation was urgent at the ti, so I couldn't give you a proper explanation and had to keep it from you."
"Alright, alright, but at that ti when Yang Ziping went missing, I was really scared, but fortunately... everything was under your control."
Chen Xiao nodded, and Wen Baohui, not wanting to delay, smiled and said: "Mr. Chen, please get in the car. I received instructions from the county bureau and city bureau to take you to the airport."
"Alright, thank you, Officer Wen."
"It's not a problem at all. Please co back to Qingxi whenever you can, Mr. Chen."
Chen Xiao agreed, and the car slowly quieted down.
Upon reaching the airport, Wen Baohui waved goodbye to him.
Chen Xiao didn't linger long and directly boarded the plane.
The three-hour flight soon ended, and after getting off the plane, Chen Xiao headed straight for the exit.
Soon, he spotted Lin Xi peering around not far away.
Chen Xiao deliberately approached from behind, but Lin Xi seed to have a sixth sense and turned her gaze just as he was about to reach her.
Seeing that Lin Xi had figured him out, Chen Xiao could only smile and open his arms.
As Lin Xi fell into his embrace, Chen Xiao asked: "What do you say?"
Lin Xi paused, "Say what?"
"Book a hotel?" Chen Xiao asked.
Lin Xi's eyes widened, and her face imdiately turned red, even the roots of her ears: "Are you crazy!"
"Just say if you're booking or not."
"Ahem, I booked it." Lin Xi said, unable to lift her head.
Chen Xiao laughed heartily and, holding Lin Xi, walked outside.
What is called a couple?
A couple isn't like young lovers!
Reserved? Not needed!
Calm?
A loving couple, being apart for a day feels like three years. How many seasons have we been apart; if we still stayed calm, could that be called love?
Love and longing aren't proven by words.
Taking action is the best proof of my missing you!
