After Ning Xi took a shower and changed into pajamas, she quietly went to sleep next to Xiao Bao.
I don't know since when...
Lu Tingxiao and Xiaobao seemed to be the source of her sense of security, and proof that she was still alive.
Just seeing them gave her courage, motivation, enthusiasm and peace of mind.
Lu Tingxiao walked to the edge of the bed and sat down. He tucked in the quilt for the mother and son, then lowered his eyes to look at the girl, "What happened?"
Ning Xi sat up slightly and leaned against Lu Tingxiao's arms. After thinking for a while, she finally didn't hide it from him and explained, "Actually, I went to meet someone tonight... I don't know if you still remember, my senior brother... He was the man with glasses who took me away last time in Philadelphia."
"Remember." Lu Tingxiao nodded slightly, a dark light flashing in his eyes.
"Yes, it was him. He suddenly asked me to meet him at the bar tonight... But don't worry, he didn't make things difficult for me. It's just that Second Senior Brother used a trick to defeat him last time, so he had a fight with Second Senior Brother, and then he probably said something about Second Senior Brother leaving the sect. In short, the First Senior Brother actually has no ill will towards us, and he even helps and reminds us in secret..." Ning Xi explained.
"Then what?"
"Then, I heard from Second Senior Brother that they seemed to have moved back to China, including... including that person..." Ning Xi said hesitantly, her expression changing slightly.
Hearing the last three words, Lu Tingxiao subconsciously tightened his arms, and even the air pressure around him dropped instantly. After a long while, he spoke in a slightly dry voice, "So, what do you think?"
Ning Xi felt a chill for some reason. She secretly glanced at Lu Tingxiao's gloomy face. She didn't understand why he suddenly looked so unhappy. "Ah? What do I think? About that person or about this matter? Anyway, I just feel annoyed! I don't want to have anything to do with them or anything about them anymore. I just want to live my life peacefully, act in my plays, make my money, and be with the one I love and cherish! Be good!"
Following Ning Xi's words, Lu Tingxiao's cold expression gradually softened.
After all, he was the person she loved so much, and she had rejected him so many times for that person. What he was most worried about was undoubtedly that the person's return would cause her to waver in her heart...
"Don't worry, I'm here, no one can force you to do anything you don't want to do."
"Yeah! That's why I came here to hug your thigh~~~"
…
In the early morning, the sunlight shines in through the window lattice, bringing warmth to the room.
The little girl across the window woke up in a daze, arched her body, and strangely felt something warm, soft, and fragrant beside her...
Hmm
The little guy yawned delicately, then opened his eyes and turned his head subconsciously. As a result, when he turned his head, he saw Aunt Xiaoxi lying next to him!
Mom!
The little bun's eyes suddenly widened, as if little kids saw a room full of candies and toys.
He doesn't like candy or toys, he likes Aunt Xiaoxi.
The little boy immediately jumped up from the bed, staring at his mother who was sleeping beside him without blinking. Then, he carefully stretched out a soft finger and poked his mother's face once, and again.
soft.
Very warm.
happy!
