Chapter 117 The little girl likes him (with additional content)
Xi Jiu, who was peeling a lobster, paused.
He raised his head and stared at Ruan Qi with a deep look in his eyes.
"You have a master?"
"Yes." Ruan Qi took a sip of juice and said slowly, "Xu Xiangyang and I are senior brothers and sisters, so we must have a master."
Xi Jiu's eyes flickered, and he lowered his head to peel a lobster while casually asking, "Were all of you brothers and sisters raised by your master?"
Ruan Qi nodded.
"My master also lives in Qingyun Village and is a neighbor of ours. He has been my master since I can remember. Senior Brother Xu lives in the imperial capital, and he only goes there to live with my master during the winter and summer holidays."
Xi Jiu hummed lightly and put the peeled lobster meat into Ruan Qi's bowl.
Ruan Qi thanked him, sucked the lobster meat into her little mouth, and squinted her eyes in satisfaction.
A smile appeared in Xi Jiu's eyes.
He took off his gloves, opened his phone naturally, and sent a WeChat message to Assistant Mu:
[Check Ruan Qi's master.]
——*——*——
It was almost nine o'clock in the evening when the two left the seafood restaurant.
Ruan Qi put on a mask and patted her belly contentedly.
"Mr. Xi, it's getting late, shall we go back?"
Xi Jiu looked at the still bustling pedestrian street and wanted to say that they could go for a walk.
But he suddenly remembered that the little girl had to go to the crew tomorrow morning.
"Okay." He nodded, "I'll take you home."
…
The Lamborghini slowly drove away from the Imperial University Pedestrian Street.
Ruan Qi took off her mask, took out her phone and opened Weibo.
Shen Wenqian was in charge of the 8pm lucky draw. The list of winners had already been announced, and the twenty cute little winners were so excited that they were practically exploding, much to the envy of the other fans.
Ruan Qi browsed the comment section for a while, then turned off her phone with a happy smile on her face.
Xi Jiu glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, his black eyes flickering.
"What are you so happy about?" he asked in a deep voice.
"Because marshmallows are my fans." The little girl's eyes sparkled. "Marshmallows are so cute, I love them!"
Xi Jiu paused, glanced at his phone inconspicuously, and curled the corners of his mouth.
He is also a member of Marshmallow.
So to round it off, the little girl likes him.
Well, that's it, that's right.
——*——*——
The car became quiet.
The elegant cello sound slowly flows out of the speakers, interweaving with the night to create a quiet and warm atmosphere.
Ruan Qi supported her chin and tilted her head to look at the busy traffic outside the window.
Xi Jiu was driving, watching her quietly out of the corner of his eye.
The rearview mirror reflected the long convoy on the road. Xi Jiu glanced at it casually, his dark eyes narrowing slightly.
Ruan Qi, who was staring out the window, also raised her eyebrows.
"Mr. Xi, there's someone behind..."
"Yeah." Xi Jiu's breath was heavy. He glanced at the traffic light and turned the steering wheel with his slender fingers. "Miss Ruan, we might be late to get home."
Ruan Qi didn't say anything, her fingers slowly stroking the silver bracelet.
The dark blue Lamborghini turned around and drove away at a very fast speed.
Behind it, several commercial vehicles drove out from the group of cars and followed closely.
…
The dark blue Lamborghini sped along the mountain road near the capital.
Xi Jiu put on the Bluetooth headset.
"It's me, Xi Jiu."
"Location: Qiuning Mountain Road. Someone's tracking us. Five vehicles. Unknown if they're carrying weapons..."
The words were not finished.
Bang!
A gunshot rang out.
Xi Jiu's eyes turned cold, and he glanced at Ruan Qi who was sitting in the passenger seat.
"Hold on tight."
As soon as he finished speaking, the blue sports car rushed out like a cheetah.
A series of gunshots rang out from behind.
Xi Jiu's expression remained unchanged as he continued to talk to the person on the other end of the phone.
"The enemy is armed with firearms and is a skilled killer. I'll give you ten minutes. I need to see backup."
