Nine o'clock in the evening.
Xie Xihe left Xiguang International on time.
Fu Yunting followed behind her, a nonchalant smile on his handsome face. He casually threw the thing he had been holding in his hand towards Xie Xihe and said, "I'll give it back to you."
Xie Xihe reached out and grabbed it, opened his palm, and a silver ring appeared in his sight.
The style of the ring is very simple, just a plain circle without any patterns or decorations, with only two small words engraved on the inner circle: Xiguang.
This is how other people see it.
Only Xie Xihe and Fu Yunting knew that this ring actually had another secret.
Inside the ring, there are five energy stones hidden, each of which contains extremely powerful energy.
When Xie Xihe entered the small world, in addition to learning a lot of scientific and technological knowledge that was beyond his time, he only brought out two things: two star cores and these five energy stones.
After returning from the small world, Xie Xihe hid them in this tail ring, and kept it with him as a token of the future controller of the base.
Later, Xie Xihe fell off a cliff and died. At the last moment, she took off the ring and dropped it on the cliff, where it was found by Fu Yunting and his party who came to look for her.
After that, it was kept in Fu Yunting's hands.
He took on the ring, and with it the burden of the future base, for nineteen years.
Now that Xie Xihe has finally returned, it is time to return the ring to its original owner.
Xie Xihe stared at the ring in his palm for a long time, and finally slowly put it on the little finger of his right hand, right next to the ring on his ring finger.
Fu Yunting curled his lips and smiled.
"Where are you going? I'll take you there." Fu Yunting turned the car keys in his hand and said with a raised lip.
He opened the car door and nodded at Xie Xihe.
Xie Xihe didn't go forward. He just opened the back door and got in, saying, "The film and television base in Fengtai."
Fu Yunting raised his eyebrows, closed the passenger door with his backhand, walked around to the driver's seat and got in the car.
Only after fastening his seat belt did he turn around and look: "Xie Xixi, you have changed."
Xie Xihe: "Hmm?"
Fu Yunting glanced at the passenger seat and raised his eyebrows, saying, "You didn't have so many problems before."
Xie Xihe followed his gaze and paused slightly.
My memory unconsciously went back to a day a month ago.
Xiguang Group’s Chenxi No. 2 was about to be released, but it was still missing a core code, so she took the time to make several trips to Xiguang Group.
One day, Sheng Shijing had an urgent meeting and was unable to pick her up, so Lu Tingqian took her home.
Yes, I was sitting in the passenger seat.
Sheng Shijing saw it when he went downstairs to wait for her.
I didn’t say anything at the time, but when I got home… ahem.
Xie Xihe cleared his throat twice to suppress the discordant images that suddenly appeared in his mind, and said calmly, "People will change."
Fu Yunting glanced at her with a half-smile and agreed, "Yeah, the shell can be replaced, so it's normal to have a few weird problems."
Xie Xihe said expressionlessly: "Drive."
Fu Yunting suppressed a smile and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
With a "boom", the car flew out like an arrow.
*
It was past the evening rush hour, so the traffic was not too congested. It only took fifty minutes to reach the destination.
Xie Xihe didn't want to say anything more to Fu Yunting, so he pushed the door and got out of the car.
Ruan Shaohuai had received the news long ago and was waiting outside. He noticed Xie Xihe's arrival at the first moment and immediately hurried to greet him.
"Dad Xi, I call you dad, okay? You really are my little ancestor. You dare to come to a place like this without any concealment. What? Are you ready to make it public?"
"It's not impossible to make it public, but you could give me or Si a heads-up in advance so we can be mentally prepared, right?"
"Actually, I think it's good to be public. You don't know, but ever since the WCE trailer came out, the number of fans online for you and my son has skyrocketed. The number of followers on the "Surprise Couple" super topic has even exceeded one million!"
"I'm not bragging, but my son's reputation in the entertainment industry and his strong fan base are so impressive, let alone just being public, even if you said your child was three years old online, there would be more blessings than criticism!"
Ruan Shaohuai put on the hat, mask and sunglasses that he had prepared early in the morning on Xie Xihe's head, while muttering to himself, and did not forget to signal his men to pay attention to their surroundings and not be photographed by the paparazzi.
Xie Xihe cooperated by reaching out to take the mask and sunglasses and put them on, but he didn't continue his conversation. Instead, he asked, "How far have we come?"
Ruan Shaohuai paused, rubbing his nose with a guilty look on his face. "What do you mean by 'what stage'?"
"Chatting, giving advice, and borrowing marketing accounts. Several months have passed, and don't tell me there's no progress at all?" Xie Xihe stared at Ruan Shaohuai's fate palace for a long time, but couldn't see any romantic luck. Suddenly, "..."
It’s hard to put it into words: “That’s it?”
Ruan Shaohuai: “…”
He was even more eloquent than Xie Xihe: "Sister Xi, let's make a deal. Can you be more tactful in your words and give me some face?"
Xie Xihe: "...I'm not being tactful?"
It's "that's it?" Is she being tactful?
Ruan Shaohuai looked aggrieved.
But perhaps he had been holding it in for too long. Now that Xie Xihe took the initiative to ask, Ruan Shaohuai could no longer hold it in. He sighed and said, "It's not that there is no progress at all, it's just... it's progressing in the opposite direction."
Xie Xihe raised his eyebrows, quite curious: "How do you resist?"
Ruan Shaohuai: "...You don't have time, so I asked Jiang Luyao to help me test it out. But when I was talking to her, your agent happened to see me, and then..."
Ruan Shaohuai's expression changed, and he looked at Xie Xihe with an expression of "you know what I mean".
Xie Xihe did understand, and it was even harder to put it into words: "And then, you didn't explain?"
Ruan Shaohuai felt hopeless: "I left too fast, I didn't make it in time."
Suddenly thinking of something, Ruan Shaohuai became alert, looked at Xie Xihe with bright eyes and said, "Sister Xi, please help me."
Xie Xihe: "Call me daddy."
Ruan Shaohuai gritted his teeth: "Father Xi!"
Xie Xihe glanced at him and threw his phone over.
Ruan Shaohuai's face was filled with joy: "Thank you, Father Xi, for your kindness!"
After saying this, he ran away happily with his phone.
Xie Xihe ignored him, pressed down the baseball cap on his head and walked towards Sheng Shijing's nanny car. When he was about to get in the car, his heart suddenly paused and he turned his head sharply to look.
Less than twenty meters away from her, at the bottom of a black SUV, a dark camera was flashing a dark light.
Such distance, such angle...
Xie Xihe was calculating in his mind, and the air pressure around him suddenly dropped.
She slowly turned around and walked back.
