Seeing the girl acting cute, Lu Tingxiao's expression finally relaxed a little, "Yeah."
After saying that, he glanced at the half-opened cup of coffee on her bedside table and showed a look of disapproval, "Your body hasn't fully recovered yet, don't stay up late, go to bed early."
"Ah? But after all that noise just now, my brain is so excited that I can't fall asleep for a while!" Ning Xi held her chin and muttered with a worried look on her face.
Then, she suddenly thought of something, and her eyes lit up, "Oh! It's dark and windy in the middle of the night, why don't we do something meaningful?"
Lu Tingxiao's gaze deepened slightly, and he asked in a slightly hoarse voice, "What?"
A moment later…
“Ahh… don’t…”
Ning Xi's screams could be heard from the bedroom...
Lu Tingxiao stared expressionlessly at the ghosts howling and the deliberately contrived horror background music on the computer screen, his face gloomy.
Her so-called... meaningful thing is watching horror movies
Ning Xi huddled in the quilt, with only her little head sticking out. She was so scared that her face turned pale, and she would scream from time to time, "Ah ah... There's a ghost in the closet... Don't open it..."
Lu Tingxiao seemed a little speechless. "Why did you watch it if you were so scared?"
"This is exciting! I've dabbled in group movies, the only thing missing is a ghost movie! Because... because I'm afraid of ghosts, wuwuwu..." Ning Xi said with a bitter look on her face.
Lu Tingxiao raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and was obviously a little surprised. It was rare that she was afraid of something.
"So, I would never dare to watch it when I'm alone. Today, you happen to be here, so of course I have to seize this great opportunity!" Ning Xi said excitedly.
Lu Tingxiao patted her head and said, "I'll accompany you from now on."
Ning Xi nodded quickly and looked at Lu Tingxiao with a slightly dazed look on her face.
She originally thought that after being single for so long, she would definitely feel uncomfortable if there was suddenly someone around her...
But now, she was curled up in bed watching a horror movie, and Lu Tingxiao was sitting quietly beside her, making her feel that the two of them seemed to be doing pretty well...
Maybe it was because the devil's aura was too strong, which greatly reduced the horror value of the horror movie, so much so that she even fell asleep in the middle of watching a horror movie...
Seeing that the girl was sleeping soundly, Lu Tingxiao turned off the movie and gently tucked the quilt in for the girl.
As soon as I stood up, my cell phone suddenly vibrated.
Caller ID: Mo Lingtian.
Lu Tingxiao's gentle gaze suddenly turned cold. He picked up his phone, walked to the balcony and answered the call.
"Hello."
"Hello... Lu Tingxiao..." Mo Lingtian's voice on the other end of the phone was weak, as if he had been tortured.
"How's the investigation going?" Lu Tingxiao asked.
"I have gone through so much trouble to deal with that kid Tang Lang! But... that man... I'm sorry... I failed at the last hurdle! I had been following the clues and was almost able to find out his identity, but I don't know how the people over there got the news in advance and cut off all the clues! I have really been working so hard that I will not stop spinning silk until I die, and I will not stop shedding tears until I burn down to ashes! Please stop torturing me! I won't do it again!"
“The land in the east of the city.”
"I'll continue investigating right away! Even if it takes me the last bit of my life, I will definitely help you catch that brat!" Mo Lingtian changed his words quickly.
"Um."
Lu Tingxiao was about to hang up the phone when Mo Lingtian on the other end suddenly called him, "Wait... Although I haven't found out anything about this matter, I got some other information."
"What?"
"That Satan must have been cornered by you this time, and has started to make every effort to clean himself up. Maybe he will return to China with a different identity soon. You better be careful..."
