As Li Mingxi spoke, he asked Simao to look at his watch to let him know that he was not making excuses.
"Brother Simao, everything I said is true. If I fail to complete the mission, my grandma will definitely not let me go when I get home!"
Seeing Li Mingxi's anxious look, Simao was really curious. What had happened that made him have to look for his father?
But logically speaking, they wouldn't do anything illegal, or do they have some other secret?
Thinking of this, he asked.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? Did something happen at home?"
Li Mingxi nodded, but family disgrace should not be made public. Naturally, she could not tell the truth in front of Old Man Wang and the others, so she could only make up an excuse.
"That's right, this is a serious matter. Grandma said that we must ask Uncle Er, otherwise the family won't be able to make the decision!"
After a pause, Li Mingxi began to explain why he came here, "Well, it just so happened that I had nothing to do today, so grandma sent me here!"
After hearing what Li Mingxi said, Simao became even more curious. After all, Niu Cuihua had never looked for his father before, but now she came to his father and asked him to make a decision. What a big thing must have happened for this to happen.
"What's wrong? Xiaoxi, tell me the truth. What happened at home that requires my dad to give you advice? This has never happened before!"
After saying this, Simao looked at Li Mingxi with a serious face. Even Old Man Wang and Leng Zhao beside him had curiosity in their eyes.
For a moment, being stared at by three people, Li Mingxi felt so guilty that he could only use a wry smile to hide his embarrassment.
Then, he said nonchalantly, "Look at you, Brother Simao, you must have been scared to death just now. I just lied to you on purpose!"
Hearing Li Mingxi's words, Simao finally felt relieved. Then, with an expression that everything was under control, he said, "Well, I thought so. Nothing serious would happen back home. So it turns out you were deliberately playing tricks on them!"
At this point, he pointed at Li Mingxi and said with a smile, "I'm telling you, don't joke like this anymore. Otherwise, if I take it seriously, it will be so embarrassing!"
Leng Zhao on the side echoed, "That's right, that's right! This joke is not funny at all!"
Li Mingxi grinned and made a face at the two of them.
Simao smiled and touched her head, then looked at the time and spoke again with an apologetic look on his face.
"Grandpa, I'm so sorry. It's getting late, and I don't know what's going on at the factory. I have to go back and take a look. I'll let Xiaoxi stay here and talk to you!"
Old man Wang replied with a smile, "Okay, okay, if you have something to do, go ahead. It's okay if you all go. It's just right for me to be alone. It's comfortable!"
"Okay, then I'll be leaving first!"
After saying this, Simao got up and left.
Seeing this, Leng Zhao hurried to catch up, "Hey, don't leave, I'm here, I'll go with you too!"
He had wanted to leave a long time ago. If it weren't for the principle of seeing things through to the end, he would have been lying in bed resting by now.
God knows, he was almost dying these days, locked in the small room. He was so focused that he didn't get a good night's sleep.
Now that he is finally back, the thing he wants to do most is to go back to the dormitory and have a good sleep!
Seeing that everyone was about to leave, he turned around and explained to Li Mingxi and Old Man Wang
"I have to go too. I might get beaten when I get back!"
After saying this, he ran away and chased Simao.
Even standing in the room, you could hear Leng Zhao calling Simao.
"Simao, wait for me!"
After everyone left, only Li Mingxi and Old Man Wang were left in the room. The young man who was on duty for Old Man Wang left again when he saw him come back.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
Seeing that there were not many people here, Old Man Wang went straight to the point.
Li Mingxi was shocked when he heard him ask himself this.
"Hey, old man, how did you know I had something to talk to you about?"
Old Man Wang raised his chin, looking extremely proud. "Needless to say, I can tell from the way you look at me that you can't hide anything!"
Li Mingxi scratched his head embarrassedly. "Hey, I can't hide anything from you. Actually, it's not a big deal. A few days ago, after you went home, I ran into a group of people. From what they said, it seemed like they were looking for someone. So, I made a special effort to find out."
"Then what?"
Old Man Wang looked at Li Mingxi in confusion.
Li Mingxi scratched his head, and then repeated the conversation between them to the old man.
"Old Wang, what should we do now? They chose this time specifically to look for you. Could something have happened? Or is it someone who wants to harm you on purpose, and that's why they did this? If you ask me, you shouldn't stay here anymore. Just pack up and follow me home today. Get out of this period first, and we'll deal with the future later!"
Although he knew that Li Mingxi was thinking about him, the old man didn't want to cause trouble for her. So, when he heard Li Mingxi say this, he directly refused.
"Forget it. I won't go with you. What's the problem? Besides, I'm just an old man now. Even if they want to get something from me, I don't have it. So, don't worry about it. It's not a big problem!"
"But those two guys look so aggressive, and it's really scary if they don't know if you'll give up!"
Li Mingxi thought, apart from anything else, the most important thing about the old man is his medical skills!
Maybe someone noticed the old man's identity and targeted him directly. That was inevitable, after all, Cai Ge understood people's hearts.
Maybe, there are a group of people who want to make a fuss about the old man. After all, his medical skills are real and there is no fake in them!
Looking at Li Mingxi's expression, the old man knew that she was still worried about him, and he was naturally very happy.
However, he couldn't let the girl worry so much. In his opinion, it was just someone from the army looking for her. How big of a deal could it be?
When he was young, he went to the front line and had seen all kinds of storms. Why would he be afraid of such a small thing?
Seeing the old man's indifferent look, Li Mingxi thought he didn't understand what she meant, so she spoke again.
"Old Wang, do you understand what I just told you? If you do, pack up your things and leave!"
As he spoke, Li Mingxi had already walked to where Old Man Wang usually put his things.
"Forget it, judging from your expression, you don't realize the seriousness of the situation. How about this, I'll just clean it up for you!"
