"All right."
Ximen Zhenzi didn't want Bai Xiaofei to leave his side even a step, so he took the initiative to ask him to stay.
Bai Xiaofei nodded and agreed.
For three or four nights in a row, Bai Xiaofei stayed by her side almost all the time except when going to the toilet and eating.
Ximen Mako's emotions were gradually calmed down.
However, before the peaceful days had lasted for a few days, bad news came from the Great Elder.
This day.
The Great Elder came personally and called Bai Xiaofei out.
Bai Xiaofei rubbed his tired eyes. Under the gaze of the Great Elder, he rubbed his eyelids. His untidy beard showed that he was indeed very tired in the past two days.
"Great Elder, what's wrong?"
The elder looked embarrassed. He looked around and made sure no one was listening. Then he took the initiative to say, "Xiao Fei... I know you've had a hard time taking care of Zhenzi these past two days. I also know I shouldn't look for you at this critical moment, but there's bad news over there. I really can't keep it secret. I can only come to you."
Hearing the Great Elder's voice, Bai Xiaofei's mind, which had been a little confused just now, instantly became much clearer.
He frowned and asked, "What happened?"
The elder glanced at Bai Xiaofei's concerned eyes and answered truthfully: "You are actually very tired now accompanying Zhenzi. I know I shouldn't bother you about this matter, but I can't help it..."
"The Lin family is in the same situation as the Qi family, but... the Lin family..."
When talking about his comrades who had fought together, the Great Elder's expression turned sad.
Bai Xiaofei had already smelled something wrong. He frowned and asked curiously, "Great Elder, what exactly happened now? Don't worry, just tell me slowly if there is anything. If I can handle it for you, I can help you. I will definitely help you with it."
"Brother Bai, I appreciate your kindness, but... won't this be too much trouble for you?"
"As long as I can help, I will do my best. Besides, Great Elder, there are too few people you can trust now. Zhen Zieryun can't use his power, and Tang You is still in the hospital for treatment. I may be the only one you can trust, so you took the trouble to come to me. I know your intention, so don't be vague, just tell me directly!"
Bai Xiaofei looked intently at the great elder in front of him.
The Great Elder met his gaze, sighed helplessly, and finally said: "I don't want to force you! I will tell you the things, but if you don't want to do it, I won't force you."
"Now, the Lin family and the Qi family are in the same situation. The youngest child of the Lin family is the only one alive. He sent a message for help to the Ximen family according to the teachings of his late father. I was also shocked when I found out. I really didn't expect that the group of people who were attacked by the Qi family before would dare to do it again!"
"And given my current situation, if I leave, and if they are using a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain, then I will just step into the trap they set for me, so I can only entrust you to handle this matter. Of course! If you don't want to, I won't..."
"I do."
Bai Xiaofei solemnly accepted the task.
He was almost getting moldy staying here, and based on Ximen Mako's concerns about him, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to leave here in the short term.
A man should have great ambitions. How can he be so afraid of death just because he is worried about the people around him? This is really not like him, and not like a man.
Besides, Ximen Zhenzi's condition has now recovered, and staying here is just a waste of time, so it's better not to...
It might be a good idea to deal with such things first when you encounter them.
"You do! That would be great of you."
The great elder smiled instantly and expressed his inner joy to Bai Xiaofei.
Bai Xiaofei was not vague, pretending to be embarrassed, and told the elder everything he was thinking.
"But given the current situation of the Great Elder, it is not difficult for me to leave. The only difficulty is Zhenzi. She is now worried about my leaving. She is very worried. I am afraid that if I leave secretly, she may be very worried. So why don't you think of a way for me to leave without deceiving her..."
"Then why don't you just go and film a movie?"
The Great Elder quickly thought of this solution, but for Bai Xiaofei, this was not a good solution.
Bai Xiaofei shook his head: "No! Because you have already told her that I will not be filming for the time being, and she must know it in her heart, so this reason will definitely not make her believe it."
Bai Xiaofei immediately rejected the decision of the Great Elder, which made the Great Elder a little confused.
"Ah... this."
The Great Elder suddenly became conflicted.
He took the opportunity to pace in front of Bai Xiaofei.
After a while, he thought of a solution: "I know! Come here and do it as I say, and it will definitely work."
Bai Xiaofei came closer with a fake frown. After listening to what the great elder said, Bai Xiaofei instantly raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"How about it, is my idea good?"
"The Great Elder is worthy of being the Great Elder. It's just that he can't think of such a solution!" Bai Xiaofei complimented, then turned around and went back to the house.
In the afternoon, he told Ximen Zhenzi that he wanted to go wash up and it might take a long time, so she told Ximen Zhenzi not to worry. After getting her consent, Bai Xiaofei was able to relax. As soon as he returned to the room, he immediately packed two or three pieces of clothes and followed the people arranged by the great elder to go out from another road in the yard.
The Great Elder also called Qi Yunxiao to the side door in advance.
Qi Yunxiao paced at the side door in confusion, wondering why the Great Elder had not arrived at the agreed time. When he wanted to go back, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Bai Xiaofei out of the corner of his eye.
He raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.
When Bai Xiaofei came up to him, he frowned and asked, "Why is it you? I remember it was the Great Elder who asked me out! Why is it you?"
Bai Xiaofei smiled awkwardly.
He first signaled the person in the middle to go to the car and wait for him, then he took a deep breath and took the initiative to tell him what was about to happen.
After telling Qi Yunxiao everything, he was surprised for a moment and immediately stretched out his hand to stop Bai Xiaofei.
"I advise you not to! Mako is a very serious person. If she knew that you were leaving even though you had an appointment with her, she would definitely be angry. And didn't you say that what you care about most now is the baby in her belly? You can only leave if the baby in her belly survives safely, right?"
"But I can't possibly give up too much for her belly, right?"
"Now I have something more important to do. I came to you because I trust you. If you feel that you can't accomplish this, I can tell the Great Elder! Then the Great Elder will arrange for someone else to be by his side. You can decide on this matter. I also think that you and Mako are really disappointed. It's not easy to meet each other, so the first contact is the most important thing, isn't it?"
