After washing her hands, she took the little boy back to her room to sleep. After nearly a month of getting along, Li Xi had already gained some experience in raising Jingchu—this child was easy to take care of! Not a hassle at all, not a tyrant at all!
Just like now.
"Xiao Chuchu, do you need me to tell you a story? Or sing you a song to put you to sleep?"
“No need.”
"Would you like a cup of hot milk? Hot milk helps you sleep!"
"No."
"You sleep while I play on my phone?"
"Well, go ahead and play."
"Okay, go to sleep. Good night."
"Good night, sister."
Then Xiao Jingchu lay down in bed, covered himself with the quilt, closed his eyes and fell asleep. Li Xi, on the other hand, was playing with his phone.
After about five minutes, Li Xi called Jing Chu tentatively, but the child did not respond and was already fast asleep.
After confirming the child was sound asleep, Li Xi tiptoed out of the room. As she closed the door, she was still thinking, are children nowadays so independent and easy to take care of? Raising a child is actually such a simple thing.
Oh.
If her thoughts were known to the public, she would definitely be criticized to pieces—no! Little Jingchu is easy to take care of, but that's just the exception. Most children are troublesome! So annoying! Hard to take care of! And even harder to raise! Eating, drinking, going to school, and even buying a house in a school district! It's too difficult!
Of course, Li Xi didn't know what netizens thought of her at the moment, nor did she intend to share her thoughts online. She was simply immersed in the sense of accomplishment that raising a child for the first time was so easy and successful, and she was so happy that she forgot everything else.
This feeling of euphoria disappeared only when Jing Limo sent a message informing him that Su Yu had finished the infusion and his physical condition had stabilized.
However, having rehearsed several times in her mind how to deal with those three rubbish plans, Li Xi was relatively calm. After making an appointment with Jing Lilimo to bring Su Yu to the Imperial Garden tomorrow to talk, Li Xi let the matter go.
I started thinking about how to tell Luo Jingxuan about joining forces to deal with Shen Zhou.
Even someone as slow-witted as Li Xi could sense Luo Jingxuan's recent indulgence. That's right, indulgence.
In the past, whenever Li Xi needed to ask Luo Jingxuan for something, she would rack her brains and talk until she got it done (which was a bit exaggerated). But now, Li Xi only had to start, and Luo Jingxuan would complete what she wanted to say and what she wanted to express. Then, without a second thought, he would always lend Assistant Jiang to her, a non-staff member of the Luo Group. Sometimes, he would even go above and beyond to meet her needs.
This really cannot be explained by "Luo Jingxuan is a good person", and the family and friendship are also somewhat unsatisfactory. All we can say is that Luo Jingxuan is most likely in love with her, but as for how deep his love is, I don't know.
On the other hand, what about Li Xi?
Ahem, how should I put it, with Luo Jingxuan's personality, it's hard for girls not to be moved! And from the moment they met, Luo Jingxuan's attitude towards Li Xi was quite patient. Even when they just met and were not familiar with each other, Luo Jingxuan never gave Li Xi a cold face. Although his expression was always cold, it was definitely not cold violence, and his cold face was not that cold, it just had no expression.
Let me put it this way, Li Xi's feelings for Luo Jingxuan started with his looks, then she respected him for his abilities and qualities, was compatible with his personality and approach, and finally fell in love with him because of his character and attitude.
It’s just that at the beginning, she was isolated from this world and didn’t think about getting connected with the protagonists (including the villain boss). On the other hand, she also had a clear understanding of herself - she and Luo Jingxuan were not from the same world. This world refers to the different "worlds" before and after the time travel, and also to the life backgrounds of the two people. Before the time travel, Li Xi was just a child from an ordinary family. Her family background was not good. Even though she went to college, her worldly experience and vision were very limited. Luo Jingxuan, a nobleman who grew up in a wealthy family, received an elite education, and the people he interacted with on a daily basis were all big shots that Li Xi could not even imagine. The difference between the two people is as big as the Pacific Ocean.
Li Xi didn't believe Cinderella stories could become reality. Although she wasn't a "commoner" in this world, her perspective and knowledge didn't just materialize from that starting point. Therefore, she never expected anything from Luo Jingxuan, nor did she yearn for a long-term relationship; she simply took things one step at a time.
But as they spent time together day by day, Luo Jingxuan's "gentleness", well, his cold-faced patience, gradually made her sink in. After being kidnapped, she became dependent on Luo Jingxuan, and his attitude also made her have extravagant hopes. Does he also look at me differently?
By now, she was basically certain that Luo Jingxuan was somewhat interested in her and was willing to indulge her.
But dealing with Shen Zhou and the Shen family isn't as simple as dealing with the Zhao family, nor is it as accidental as dealing with the Hua family. Dealing with the Shen family is a struggle between two equally powerful companies, or rather, a business war. Sure, the Luo family might be stronger, and Luo Jingxuan is more capable than Shen Zhou. But overall, the Shen family is a behemoth and not easily dealt with. Dealing with the Shen family also doesn't offer obvious benefits for the Luo family.
To put it bluntly, it's a thankless task.
Can Luo Jingxuan do this for Li Xi and Su Yu?
Li Xi didn’t know and was worried.
Why:-(
