Chapter 121: You Have a Boyfriend? (3)
The next morning, Zhou Xiaoxiao received a huge bouquet of Baby’s breath the moment she got to the studio door.
There was gauze wrapped around Chen Weipan’s forehead, but this didn’t affect how flirtatious he looked, coming over early in the morning to wait for Zhou Xiaoxiao.
“Junior sister, thank you for yesterday.”
This junior sister was not only mysterious but arrogant, making him very interested. I must win her over.
He said to himself.
He eagerly gave her the flowers and went to open the door in a gentleman-like manner, following Zhou Xiaoxiao into the studio.
Zhou Xiaoxiao invited him to sit and she poured a cup of tea for him.
“What happened yesterday? Police officers have to subject themselves to be in such dangerous situations now?”
“Speaking of which, this is the first time it had happened to me, and it’s just an accident. This usually doesn’t happen and being a police isn’t as dangerous as how the TV Shows had portrayed them to be.” Yet, Chen Weipan’s expression became solemn and he said, “But there is a big case that we have been working on and it might affect some people’s profits, which is why they may want to scare me, so that I can stop investigating it.”
The two women in the studio, Li Hongmei and Ke Dingqi, were in the control room chattering about and sticking their heads around.
Chen Weipan coughed and said, “Is it convenient for you to go on a walk with me? I’ll treat you for coffee.”
Zhou Xiaoxiao said, “Senior brother, I have a whole bunch of things I need to handle, so another day?”
“Then do you have time tonight? I can treat you out for dinner, so that I can thank you for saving my life yesterday.”
“You don’t need to be so polite with me. Officer Chen, you had helped me last time as well. I have plans with my boyfriend tonight, so it’s not very convenient.”
“You have a boyfriend? Who? Xue Chunjian is still in prison.”
“No, not him. His name is Yu Xingzhi.”
…
Chen Weipan left in disappointment.
Lin Zhihua came over to help Zhou Xiaoxiao pack her things.
“Officer Chen is pretty nice and he’s also handsome, coming from a good background too. You’re not dating anyone, so why do you have to say that?”
“Who said I’m not?” Zhou Xiaoxiao looked at pink bouquet of Baby’s Breath and tossed it into the garbage can, patting her hands and saying, “My boyfriend is more handsome and richer than him. He is also better than him in all aspects. Most importantly, he is amiable.”
“Sister Hua, oh right. I need to go out for a few days, so I need you to look over the store again.”
“You don’t need to worry about the store. But where are you going?”
“L City.”
Zhou Xiaoxiao ripped off a sheet of paper and wrote an address on there.
It was an island-like city. The plane ride there from where Zhou Xiaoxiao was at was about a few hours along.
Zhou Xiaoxiao glanced at the address. It was elder princess who had transmigrated over countless years ago that left the piece of information for her. At that time, elder princess entrusted her with looking over her family if she ever transmigrated back to the modern world.
This is my only clue now. Hopefully, it’s useful.
Zhou Xiaoxiao said in her heart.
…
At night, Yu Xingzhi had went to sleep very early already.
He took off his clothes and closed his eyes, laying on the bed and nervous waiting.
Not long later, he felt a soft hand gently caressing his face as usual.
A familiar body snuggled up against him.
“Xiaoxiao.” Yu Xingzhi closed his eyes and softly called out.
He felt a gentle finger slowly sliding around his chest.
She slowly wrote ‘it’s me’ on his chest.
“Xiaoxiao, have you been well?”
I’ve been good.
“Where are you now?”
Home. My parent’s home.
“You have a family? Who?”
My father, mother, and brother.
“Do they treat you good.”
Yes. They love me a lot.
“Why…aren’t you coming back yet?”
The finger paused and then she slowly wrote:
I temporarily can’t come back yet.
“…”
I’m thinking of solutions. Wait for me.
“Does your family know about me?”
They’ve seen a portrait of you.
“Do they…approve of us?”
They all like you. They think you’re handsome.
