Chapter 8 Cupid's Flight Diary 08

After saying this, Qiu Xin didn't even think about the reactions of the three audience members below. He picked up his suitcase and was about to go out.
Although... she didn't know whether the person who had been waiting for her would give her one last chance.
Anyway, she has made up her mind. Even if he is not there when she goes back, or doesn't want to see her again, she will not back down. Even if he is shameless or unreasonable, she will still stick to him and wait for him.
After all these years, it's her turn to be the watchman.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she put her hand on the door handle, a hand suddenly appeared and blocked the door in front of her.
She frowned and turned around, only to see Wang Xi with a stern face. He said to her, "You can come as you please, and leave as you please. Do you think it's that easy? Did I say I allow you to unilaterally end this engagement and go find that mixed-race man?"
"I need your permission? Who do you think you are?" Qiu Xin was so angry that he laughed, "Are you sick?"
Wang Xi's hand didn't give in at all. "Qiu Xin, don't be so extreme. This won't benefit anyone."
"Who were you thinking about when you went to hook up with other women?"
"Oh, do you think you're not letting me touch you because you're some traditional, pure girl? You're kidding! It's just because you've always had that mixed-race guy in your heart, and you just want him to touch you," Wang Xi finally took off his disguise and gave her a sarcastic look. "Let's not be so sarcastic. Do you really think I'm happy with this engagement and that I'm your bootlicker? I thought you knew exactly what kind of person you are."
And she saw that her so-called biological parents behind her did not show any sympathy or pity for her on their faces in the face of Wang Xi's sarcasm, ridicule and slander, and they did not even want to refute Wang Xi.
The last bit of discomfort that had remained in her heart finally disappeared completely.
"And these two old people," Wang Xi sneered and pointed behind him, "Do you think my parents and I don't know what they're trying to achieve by selling their daughter?"
Both Mr. and Mrs. Qiu were obviously shocked by Wang Xi's true appearance. They stared at him with wide eyes, but no one dared to say anything.
"So, your family still has so many conflicts of interest with ours, and now you want to walk away with nothing?" Wang Xi fixed his gaze on her, obviously thinking she would be frightened. "Aren't you thinking things are a bit too simple?"
She looked at him and was about to say something when she heard two knocks on the door behind her.
Everyone in the room was stunned, wondering who would come at this time.
Qiu Xin didn't even look through the peephole to see who was outside the door. He shook off Wang Xi's hand and directly opened the door.
As soon as he saw the person standing outside the gate, Qiu Xin became completely Spartan.
...Shit, is she drunk and blurry?!
If she wasn't dazzled, why was Jing Ran standing outside the door?!
Jing Ran looked at her outside the door with an expression that looked like she had been beaten. For a moment, he wanted to laugh, but considering the urgency of the situation, he held back his laughter and just gave her a look.
But just this one look made the bachelor commander, who just felt that he was fighting alone, feel relieved.
This look contained the tenderness she was most familiar with, as well as comfort and a sense of security.
He is the only one in the world who can give her this sense of security.
【I'm here, don't worry.】
She seemed to hear what was in his heart.
Seeing that she understood his look, Jing Ran turned to Wang Xi and Mr. and Mrs. Qiu and said, "I think you all know who I am, so I won't bother introducing myself any more. You were so loud just now that I heard you from outside the door. It seems that Xinxin has already left the Qiu family. So, whatever happens to the Qiu family, how much money they have, how many acres of land they own, or how much debt they owe, it has nothing to do with her. She doesn't need to bear any responsibility."
"Who do you think you are to say such things here?" Wang Xi looked at him and said in a cold tone.
"It doesn't matter who I am, but I'm definitely taking Xinxin away today. If you insist on keeping her here, don't blame me for doing something that's going to end badly for you," Jing Ran said calmly, folding his arms. "I happen to know some friends. If you don't let her go, the police will be here in five minutes. Maybe there will be people more powerful than the police... or should I say agents? You can explain it as an internal family conflict, but once a formal judicial agency intervenes to review the Wang family's accounts, I don't think things will be that simple."
At first, Wang Xi's face was still full of nonchalant contempt, but when he heard the last part, his expression suddenly changed.
"If you want to preserve your and your parents' current lives, then stop thinking of anything evil towards Xinxin," Jing Ran said firmly, then turned to Mr. and Mrs. Qiu. "As for you, you've never shown any genuine affection or love towards Xinxin over the years. You've only used her to your advantage. That's why you don't have the respect I have for an elder. You deserve to lose my daughter, Xinxin."
Qiu Xin had initially felt a bit flustered when she saw him planning to confront Wang Xi and her parents, but seeing Jing Ran's situation, she realized she'd been worrying too much. He must have done thorough research and preparations behind her back before blowing up the bunker. Otherwise, how could he have made these three people look so hopeless in just a few minutes?
No one spoke in the room. Jing Ran turned his head to look at Qiu Xin, who was looking at him in confusion and shock. Finally, a hint of softness appeared on his face again.
"Let's go," he said softly and gently, extending his hand to her.
Qiu Xin looked at the man, without even glancing at the people in the room, and simply raised his hand and placed it in his palm.
Their hands were tightly clasped together, just like they had done countless times before.
During breaks in high school, after school, during summer vacation, and when she sneaked away to Zurich as an adult... Every time, no matter where they went, no matter what they did, he would hold her hand, afraid that she would get separated from him.
There will never be another person in this world like him who treats her like a treasure and holds her in his hands, and can't bear to let her suffer any grievances.
She was born and lived in this city for a long time, but all the happiness in her life stayed only in Zurich, where he was.
This place is called home.
