In the conference room, a man sat on a chair discussing the market. Suddenly, a man rushed in from outside, looking panicked. "Master Tang, Miss... Miss..."
Tang Wei waved his hand to signal a pause, looked up at the person who could not speak clearly, stood up and went outside.
"Master Tang, the young lady... has been rescued!"
As soon as the words fell, the usually steady man frowned, "What's going on?"
There were only his people there, how could they be rescued?
"Master Tang, all the people you sent were injured. Not only that, even..."
"Go on!" Tang Wei growled.
"Even...Even Master Jiao was injured."
The air pressure suddenly dropped, and Tang Wei's eyes gradually turned red. When he spoke, his voice suddenly turned cold, "Who rescued them?"
"The man was wearing a mask and a hat, so his face couldn't be seen clearly. But we have an important clue here."
"The group of people who injured us might be related to the matter that you investigated some time ago, Master Tang..."
…
In a daze, Tang Qiqi tried hard to open his eyes a crack.
The street lights outside flashed by, illuminating the surroundings and telling Tang Qiqi that she was rescued!
With his face pressed against the strong back and the familiar scent lingering on his side, Tang Qiqi felt completely relieved.
"Qi Yan." Tang Qiqi called softly.
The person under him was startled, and stopped for a few seconds. When he continued to move forward, he responded solemnly, "Yeah."
Finally, he added, "I'm here."
Hearing this voice, Tang Qiqi's eyes suddenly became sore and tears welled up uncontrollably.
She is not an emotional person and thinks crying is a sign of weakness.
But the moment Qi Yan stood in front of her, the strong shield she had built up collapsed in an instant, and she just wanted to curl up in his arms and find a warm harbor.
Tang Qiqi knew that this was a bad thing for her, but the sense of security that Qi Yan brought her made her fall for him unconsciously and slowly become dependent on him.
After a long while, he stretched out his arms and put them around the boy's neck.
Without asking where they were going, he let the other person carry him on his back.
Lying on his back, he spoke slowly, "Give me a chance to explain, then get angry again."
Although he suppressed his emotions, his voice contained a faint cry, which made Qi Yan's frown suddenly soften a little, and even the tense string in his heart softened.
The thin lips pursed slightly opened, "Okay."
"Carry me back, don't leave me here."
"Okay." Qi Yan's firm voice reached Tang Qiqi's ears from behind.
"Little brat, I'm tired and hungry."
“…”
"And...I missed you."
Tang Qiqi closed her eyes again.
But this time, there was no nightmare, no darkness, but the boy's gentle voice and the breath that made Tang Qiqi addicted.
Maybe she was really tired, Tang Qiqi slept very soundly.
I also had a dream.
The scene that often appeared in my mind reappeared.
The two children in the dream fell to the ground, and their crying was so real that I could even hear the girl shouting.
But this time, unlike the previous blurred outline, the face of the boy pressed under the girl changed little by little, gradually becoming clearer...
…
Tang Qiqi didn't know how long he had slept. When he woke up again, he found that everything around him was extremely familiar.
The pillow and quilt have the unique and refreshing scent of Qi Yan.
She is... back to the small county town!
Tang Qiqi hurriedly threw off the quilt and got out of bed, then ran outside to look around, but the tall figure was nowhere to be found in the entire house.
"Qi Yan?" She called out tentatively, but all she got in response was silence.
