It wasnāt that Ning Xi hadnāt noticed that Lu Tingxiaoās attitude towards her was unusual, but Lu Tingxiao always stopped at the right point. If she overreacted, it would unavoidably seem like she was assuming he had feelings that might not actually exist.
So as if she was hearing a normal question, Ning Xi gave a normal reply: "Male!"
Lu Tingxiao narrowed his eyes imperceptibly. "Are you coming back tonight?"
This questionā¦ hearing it sounded more and more likeā¦
Ning Xi brought out her acting skills, and pretending this question wasnāt ambiguous at all, she said nonchalantly, "Iām not so sure about that, when the time comes, Iāll call you. Iām running late, Iām going upstairs first!"
Tonight, many unexpected things were bound to happen; what if she couldn't take it anymore, and wound up beating up Jiang Muye that guy the whole night?
Ning Xi quickly ran upstairs to grab a big black satchel before hugging Little Bun and kissing him goodbye at lightning speed.
Looking at the back of the girl as she swiftly ran off, Lu Tingxiaoās expression instantly changed, becoming like snow in August.
Apart from Ning Xi, Little Bun cared for nothing else, including his own dad. But looking at his fatherās oppressively dark face just then, he bent his head and wrote something on a board. Then he reached out to poke him with his little finger.
Feeling the slight pressure on his arm, Lu Tingxiao looked down, then saw the question mark his son had drawn on the board.
"Are you asking me why Iām unhappy?" Lu Tingxiao lifted an eyebrow, paused to think, then said slowly, "If the day comes that your Auntie Xiao Xi becomes someone elseās, calls him darling and kisses him good morning, goodnight, and goodbye, has hotpot with someone else, and you are no one special to her, without even the right to ask how she is, would you be happy?"
Little Bun looked blank for a bit, before his expression instantly shattered, as if the world was ending.
And so, a certain father finally found some equilibrium.
Little Treasure started sobbing, and grabbed his evil fatherās cellphone to complain to Auntie Xiao Xi.
He sent Ning Xi a crying emoticon: (>ļ¹<.)ļ½
Ning Xi, who was on her way to the airport, saw the text and thought that Little Bun was upset about not having hotpot, and she hurriedly gathered sweet words together to coax Little Bun: [Aiya, whatās the matter, darling, not happy? Don't be sad, if youāre sad then Auntie is sad too! Today Auntie really has something on, tomorrow night weāll definitely go out for hotpot, okay? Muah muah! Love you for ten thousand years! I love darlingās smiles the most!]
Seeing her reply, Little Treasureās tears instantly turned to smiles, and he proudly gave the phone back to his dadĀ to take a look.
Lu Tingxiao saw the sweet words that Ning Xi texted, "ā¦" and his heart was struck a blowā¦
Two hours later, at B Cityās airport.
Even though Ning Xi had been prepared before arriving, she was still shocked by the scene.
"Ahhhhhh! Jiang Muye! Jiang Muye! Jiang Muye!"
"Hubby, look over here! Hubby, I love you! Hubby, I want to have babies with you!"
"Muye, Muye, you are the most handsome! Iāll support you forever!"
"Muye, Muye, you are the best! Iāll protect you forever!"
...
Most of them at the scene were young female fans; she even saw quite a number of auntie fans and some male fans. All of them were screaming their hearts out. All the airport security personnel had come out, but the situation was still out of control.
"My dear wives, quiet down, okay? Don't disturb other people! Shhh!"
In the crowd, a sexy voice made itself known. The fans went dead silent for one second, before they broke out into wild screams that almost broke the roof. Far from quieting down, the scene became even more explosive.
Ning Xi hid behind a pillar some distance away to watch, her head covered in black lines.
This man really still held a grudge, he really wanted to get her killed!
If she went out now to meet him, could she live through the night?
