Chapter 97 The Warmth of Human Life
A black baseball cap, black sunglasses, a man with a sculpted jawline, and lips that are somewhat aloof.
Apart from Lu Jinye, no one else can capture people's attention with just half of their face shown!
He clearly felt Wen Ni's gaze, and actually took off his sunglasses, revealing his deep and charming eyes, and looked back at her without flinching.
[I'll remember this for you; it's something you owe me.]
The words from that night still echo in my ears.
Wen Ni was startled and for the first time deliberately avoided eye contact with Lu Jinye.
Fengsui, who had been keeping a close eye on Wen Ni, naturally noticed all her subtle changes!
But he just lowered his eyes slightly, got out of the car without saying a word, and took the initiative to carry Wen Ni's luggage bag.
Qin Yuan, dressed in a black suit, walked over and blocked their way.
"Miss Wen Ni, how is your recovery going?"
"Very good, thank you for your concern."
"That's good." Qin Yuan concealed the worry in his eyes and glanced coldly at Feng Sui and the others. "Leave Miss Wen Ni's luggage to me. Our Master Lu can escort Miss Wen Ni upstairs."
"Hey, we'll deliver our boss's things ourselves. You don't need to take his stuff!" Leng Feng looked wary and hostile towards Qin Yuan.
Wen Ni remained silent, only looking up at Qin Yuan, waiting for him to explain his intentions.
"Please don't misunderstand, everyone."
Qin Yuan forced a smile to appear friendly. "Because Wen Cheng and the others don't know that Miss Wen Ni went abroad on a mission, and given your special status, if you personally escorted Miss Wen Ni up in a grand manner, it might cause them to overthink things! I think Miss Wen Ni probably doesn't want them to worry either."
That's right, no matter how dangerous the mission was, it has eventually come to an end.
She's doing well now, and there's no need for her family to worry about her anymore.
"Beacon tower, cold front, dragon blade."
Wen Ni turned to the three of them and said, "You all need to go back to your posts and report to your mission points. You can't stay out for too long, so go back first. Give the things to Qin Yuan, and he will take me upstairs."
"……good."
Although the three of them were extremely unwilling, Wen Ni had already spoken, so they had no choice but to obey!
They threw the luggage bag into Qin Yuan's arms, opened the car door, and the three of them glared fiercely at Qin Yuan and the car not far behind.
It's no exaggeration to say that he looked like he was about to stab a human trafficker!
Once they got into the car, it sped off with a whoosh, billowing black exhaust fumes and kicking up a cloud of dust!
Qin Yuan choked on it, and he coughed for a long time, almost unable to breathe.
Three minutes later, in the elevator of the hotel apartment building.
Wen Ni stood in front, and when she saw the shadows of the two people behind her reflected in the elevator doors, her brows twitched slightly.
Qin Yuan was supposed to escort her upstairs, so why did Lu Jinye come up too?
However, he didn't mention a word about what happened at the drug rehabilitation center that night, so it seems he really didn't know she was sober at the time!
Luckily, he didn't know.
That way, you can just keep it to yourself and pretend nothing ever happened.
Wen Ni was lost in thought, unaware of the complex gazes Lu Jinye cast upon her back, which lingered for a moment.
"bite"
When the elevator arrived at the target floor, Wen Ni took out her room key and opened the door to her temporarily rented room.
Wen Cheng was in the living room helping Xiao Xiaobao with his homework.
Hearing someone open the door, he hesitated and turned around. When he saw that it was Wen Ni who came in, he was stunned at first, and then he rushed into Wen Ni's arms. When he looked up again, his eyes were already full of tears!
"Sister! Sister! You're finally back! I couldn't contact you for a whole month while you were gone, and I was worried sick every single moment!"
With a sob in his voice, Wen Cheng touched Wen Ni's arm and thin back, his voice trembling.
"Sis, you've lost so much weight! You don't look well, and you're so weak. What happened? Are you injured? Weren't you just participating in an exercise? How did you end up like this..."
"There are bound to be accidental injuries during drills, but it's nothing serious, just minor cuts and bruises." Wen Ni patted Xiao Cheng's shoulder, her tone calm and gentle. "It's just that the food hasn't been very good; I'm practically malnourished!"
"Really? You're not lying to me." Xiao Cheng was a little incredulous.
Why would I lie to you? Besides, I'm back safe and sound, aren't I? Aren't you happy?
"Happy! How could I not be happy!" Xiao Cheng hurriedly repeated "happy" several times.
Xiao Xiaobao followed along, his eyes fixed on Lu Jinye behind Wen Ni, and asked in a childish voice, "Who is this handsome brother? Is he Sister Ni Ni's boyfriend?"
"Xiao Bao, these two are my friends." Wen Ni smiled, squatted down, and patted Xiao Bao's hair.
Only when she returns home and faces them can she relax and smile from the bottom of her heart!
That smile was as warm as a spring breeze, making everyone who saw it feel refreshed and happy!
"Look at my brain, I was so excited to see my sister! Mr. Lu, Mr. Qin, please come in and sit down, don't stand at the door!"
As Xiaocheng spoke, she hurriedly stepped aside, then picked up her phone and muttered to herself.
“Brother Li and Uncle Xiao are both busy at Baoxiangzhai and don’t know that my sister is back yet… I’ll call them right now and tell them you’re back! They’re just as worried as I am!”
"good."
Wen Ni had just changed into slippers when Xiao Xiaobao pulled her to sit on the sofa with him.
He chattered excitedly, eager to show off to her, "Sister Nini! Look what I've done! I've received so many certificates this month, gotten perfect scores so many times, and my teacher gave me several little red flowers!"
"Really? Xiao Bao is great!"
The afternoon sun shone down on them.
The soft glow, edged with gold, is so serene and beautiful that it brings a rare sense of peace to the heart!
Lu Jinye stood at the door without moving.
Looking at Wen Ni's gentle smile in profile, and feeling the warmth of everyday life, he suddenly gained a more concrete understanding of the word "home"...
On the other side
Xiao Cheng's phone call led Xiao Weilai and Li Yuanchang to close their shop and go home.
Wen Ni is back!
No matter how wealthy or important a client is, even if the King of Heaven himself came, they wouldn't open for business today!
When they came back, they bought a lot of groceries and cooked a table full of more than ten dishes!
"Mr. Lu, Brother Qin! Please don't be shy, eat more, eat more!"
"Okay... thank you, thank you!"
Qin Yuan sat there awkwardly, looking at the mountain of bowls piled up for him and Master Lu, and kept thanking him.
Lu Jinye, holding his chopsticks, ate his meal slowly and deliberately, thoroughly enjoying the lively atmosphere!
"These past six months have flown by! In less than three months, my sister and Xiao Cheng will have to go to school." Li Yuanchang munched on a pig's trotter, then suddenly thought, "Speaking of which, will my sister still be able to work as Mr. Lu's bodyguard then?"
"Of course not."
Wen Ni lowered her head and peeled shrimp. "The task assigned by the superiors only has a deadline of September this year."
"You seem eager to finish this mission?" Lu Jinye put down his chopsticks and glanced at her sideways. "You're taking my money, but you don't seem very happy about it?"
