Chapter 615: Chapter 615: He Understands Her, He Stays with Her, and That’s Great Chapter 615: Chapter 615: He Understands Her, He Stays with Her, and That’s Great For quite a while, Lu Mian finally put away those emotions and even comforted Xiao Qimo in return.
“Did I scare you?”
The man nodded, “I was scared.” But what he felt more was heartache.
Lu Mian sighed, “I knew it, I shouldn’t have told you all this.”
At this, Xiao Qimo was quite unhappy, “If you don’t tell , who do you want to tell?”
“?”
The straightforward Lu Mian didn’t understand why he thought this way.
If she didn’t tell him, she wouldn’t tell anyone else either.
“Right, do you still rember the pavilion at Kunpeng School?”
Xiao Qimo beca serious, “I rember.
As you said, it should also be a magnetic field passage.
I took samples for them to test, and indeed, they detected an abnormal magnetic field.
So experts suggested that it resembled more of a spatial transport station.”
“Perhaps…
The kidnapping case two years ago, our last disappearance point was there.
But at that ti, we had all lost our senses.
I don’t know what protective asures they took, and I’m unclear about where it led.
I only rember that when I woke up, I was in the lab.”
The kidnappers at that ti must have taken protective asures as well.
As for the ti later when she was pushed into the pavilion by Gu Jingyi, she was fortunate to have worn the ring given to her by Director Qimo, which left her unhard.
But without the ring’s help, her special constitution wouldn’t have killed her, but she would have suffered so pain.
That was also why she inquired about the pavilion multiple tis without fear of its eerie nature.
She just acted wilfully, relying on her special constitution.
“What happened in the lab?
Where does that magnetic field passage lead to?
How did you escape?”
Xiao Qimo had too many questions about the kidnapping case.
His concern for the kidnapping case was no less than Lu Mian’s.
Lu Mian paused, not answering his questions, but instead asked, “Director Qimo, what about you?
Why have you been investigating this matter all along?
You must have sothing you haven’t told , right?
And what’s with the international police force?”
The two used the sa parallel questioning technique, rendering each other speechless.
ƝονǤ0.сօ
Xiao Qimo frowned.
Lu Mian pursed her lips.
After half a minute, Lu Mian asked directly.
“The international police force is always quite poor, and suddenly offering a reward for number thirteen must an they’ve encountered a problem, a problem related to the kidnapping case.
So those people…
have they started again?”
Xiao Qimo knew all too well who those people were.
It’s just that, he hadn’t decided how to answer this question either.
His silence made Lu Mian sit up straight, and Xiao Qimo felt a loss of warmth and pressure on his legs, and felt a bit of loss.
Lu Mian paused and looked at Xiao Qimo, a sly look flashing in her eyes.
“Director Qimo, let’s exchange a secret with each other.”
He had what she wanted to know, and she had what he wanted to know.
The two looked at each other.
Xiao Qimo took out his phone, his deep and cunning eyes agreeing readily, “Alright.
How about we each write a ssage and send it to each other at the sa ti?”
Lu Mian snapped her fingers, “OK.”
Both of them took out their phones and started typing seriously.
After a while, Lu Mian asked, “Director Qimo, have you finished writing?”
“I’m ready.”
“Then I’ll count down three, two, one, and we’ll send it to each other at the sa ti.”
“Alright.”
The two looked at each other, smiling and averting their gazes, each hiding a sliver of sly emotion.
“Three, two, one.”
As soon as Lu Mian finished the last digit, both clicked the send button simultaneously, keeping their promise.
Lu Mian opened the ssage, her gaze pausing slightly.
And at Xiao Qimo’s end, upon receiving Lu Mian’s ssage, a light laugh spilled over his lips.
Lu Mian’s text read: [Don’t get involved in this anymore, I just hope you’re safe.]
Lu Mian looked at her phone.
Xiao Qimo’s text ssage read, “Stop getting involved in this matter, I will keep you safe.”
Both were a bit sly when ssaging, each intending to draw out words from the other.
As they asured each other up, they ended up understanding one another.
And they, too, read the aning of each other’s text ssage.
No one could stop the other, and no one could change the other, yet they cared for each other deeply and sincerely.
Looking at the two ssages that were almost identical, the scholarly man and the debauched girl smiled at the sa ti.
“You little rascal.”
Xiao Qimo raised his hand, and with his index finger, he gently pressed on the girl’s forehead.
“Old fox.”
Lu Mian bit his finger lightly, with just enough force to punish.
Xiao Qimo’s finger twitched as if electrified, then he caressed her lips with his finger, his entire palm treasuring and gently cradling her cheek.
“Mianmian…”
They locked eyes, close enough to feel each other’s breath.
His gaze was deep and focused, chilly and elegant, yet it felt warm to Lu Mian.
“Mhm.” She obediently responded.
Xiao Qimo’s heart skipped a beat.
With swallowing motions at his Adam’s apple, the man said with understanding, yet heartache, “Don’t force yourself; you’re not alone.”
“Okay.”
Lu Mian nodded, feeling a slight tingling at the tip of her nose.
She was grateful that Xiao Qimo didn’t force her to back down and hadn’t compelled her to stop her actions in the na of “it’s for your own good.” She had soone she needed to protect.
She was the only “success” among the “so-called test subjects.” She couldn’t stop, nor was it possible for her to do so.
She was moved by his understanding.
He understood her, he was with her, and that was enough for her.
“Thank you, Director Qimo.”
The girl looked down, and when her eyelashes slightly fell, the man’s lips, carrying a hint of coolness, pressed against hers.
Xiao Qimo kissed her eyes, nose, and eventually her lips earnestly.
His tenderness and cherish for her made every kiss extraordinarily careful and delicate.
This girl, who had truly faced the God of Death in the dark, made every single one of his nerves ache with empathy.
“Mhm…”
In the midst of their lips and teeth intertwining, Lu Mian unconsciously made a soft sound, tilting her head back to receive his gossar-like kiss.
The ring on her chest grew hot, from her quickly beating heart.
From initial shyness to gradual acceptance, she seed to be opening her heart more to Director Qimo.
Her arms wrapped around the man’s strong waist, pulling him closer to her.
In this bloom-filled conservatory, during this undisturbed mont, only their slightly hurried breathing and the romantic and ambiguous air lingered around them.
Even the calls that ca to the phone, killing the mood, were quietly and decisively hung up.
——
Jinjing.
Yun Sang called Lu Mian, but unexpectedly, the call was hung up.
On the other side, Mo Si wanted to report to Xiao Qimo about work, but he couldn’t get through.
“Yun God, Miss Lu didn’t answer the call either?”
Yun Sang pursed his lips, “No.
Your Boss Mo didn’t answer either?”
Mo Si rested his chin on his hands, explaining innocently and kindly, “Maybe, they’re busy.
I heard it’s quite strict over there.
Boss Mo didn’t bring and Mo Nie this ti because the inspection was too thorough, making it difficult to make arrangents.”
“Really?” Yun Sang raised an eyebrow, chuckling without humor, “Are you sure your Boss Mo didn’t want to spend ti alone together?”
“…” Mo Si realized belatedly, “Yun God, I feel a bit upset, I’m going to leave now…”
——
Lu Mian and Xiao Qimo were about to depart.
But Pan Jiancheng called Lu Mian to the lab alone, not allowing Xiao Qimo and Dong Li to stay by her side.
It was obvious that he had sothing to discuss.
