Chapter 184 AI Confinement 42
She hurriedly threw off the covers, and the sound of her hurried footsteps, accompanied by her apologetic voice, reached the man's ears.
"Sorry, I forgot!"
When did you get back?
Xi Heng sensed the girl's panic and urgency, and couldn't help but gently comfort her, "Don't rush, take it easy, don't fall."
He frowned.
Song Jinhuan had already pulled three bolts, and as soon as he finished speaking, the door opened with a "snap".
"I didn't know you were back." Song Jinhuan looked at him with a wronged expression.
Xi Heng raised his hand and touched her head, tidying up her messy hair.
Shift your gaze downwards.
His brows furrowed even deeper.
Seeing his increasingly unpleasant expression, Song Jinhuan felt uneasy.
Xi Heng never seemed to have such a bad expression in front of her.
She's definitely angry this time!
If he were to physically assault someone, even if she was the mission target, she would still have to run away!
Why aren't you wearing shoes?
The man said coldly.
"Huh?"
Song Jinhuan was stunned; this was not quite what she had expected.
Xi Heng sighed, picked her up by the waist, and instructed her, "No matter what happens, you should take good care of yourself first."
Song Jinhuan was leaning on his shoulder when a figure flashed by and made eye contact with him.
That one glance was filled with the curiosity of a gossipmonger, and also with amazement.
Song Jinhuan realized that the person from just now was the aunt from across the hall.
The man closed the door behind him.
She was lifted and carried to the sofa.
Xi Heng sat down beside her, took out a soft handkerchief from his pocket, grabbed her ankle, and carefully wiped it little by little.
Song Jinhuan: "Why do you always carry a handkerchief with you?"
Xi Heng paused slightly in his hand. "This is for you."
"Oh~"
She was silent for a moment, then couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you angry?"
Xi Heng asked, puzzled, "Why are you angry?"
"So you're just locked out by the door?"
Xi Heng smiled and said, "What's wrong with that?"
"I'm only proud of your safety awareness."
His smile faded slightly as he looked at her earnestly. "You did very well today."
"Regarding Dr. Tang, it was my fault for not resolving the issue properly."
"Don't worry, I will definitely handle it."
He couldn't bring himself to say the words that he would guarantee Dr. Tang would no longer bother anyone.
He said the same thing last time.
Song Jinhuan's anxiety completely disappeared.
It turns out Xi Heng wasn't angry!
It turns out that Xi Heng would be proud of her for doing a good job!
Song Jinhuan was in a great mood and said happily, "The aunt across the hall helped us out today, let's go to the supermarket later!"
"Buy some fruit and send it over!"
Xi Heng helped her put on her shoes and replied, "It's my pleasure."
Meanwhile, the aunt across the hall was sharing what had just happened with her friends.
"The girl across the hall is just like a fairy."
"His skin was so white! His eyes were bright and clear, and his hair was so thick, black, and shiny!"
"That young man is really considerate; he would rather wait at the door than disturb the girl's sleep."
"I really can't understand how that middle-aged man could say such a thing!"
"If I had a daughter like that, she would definitely be the apple of our eye!"
...
After a long while, the sophisticated aunt heard the doorbell ring.
She walked to the door, puzzled, and through the peephole, saw a young couple—the same couple from across the hall.
She opened the door, and the young man across the hall thanked her first.
"Thank you for your help today. I hope you can accept these gifts."
The sophisticated aunt was quite pleasantly surprised, because the other person's actions made her feel that her meddling today was worthwhile!
