Chapter 722: Particularly Conspicuous
Nie Yao and Li Jinxing also walked into the low-rise villa next door. Two bodyguards, Jiashan and Keli, carried their luggage in and said respectfully, "Ms. Nie, Mr. Li, the luggage is here. We'll live on the first floor!"
"Thank you for your hard work. If we are going out, we will tell you..." Nie Yao nodded and smiled.
After Jiashan and Keli checked into their own rooms, Nie Yao and Li Jinxing finally opened the door and entered their own upper-level villa.
"Are you tired?" Li Jinxing saw Nie Yao come in and lie on the sofa. He rubbed her hair and asked with a smile.
"It's okay, I'm just a little tired from arguing with those archaeologists just now..." Nie Yao rubbed his eyebrows, shrugged and sighed softly.
"Although I don't understand what you were arguing about, I saw that you stood out among the elderly archaeologists!"
Li Jinxing opened the bottle of mineral water, unscrewed the cap and handed it to her, smiling and comforting: "My Yaoyao, you are amazing!"
"Don't flatter me too much. In terms of experience and knowledge, I'm certainly not as good as them!" Nie Yao took a sip of the mineral water and said helplessly, "So that person in charge thinks I'm not suitable to lead the team. It's actually quite normal. After all, there might be quite a few archaeologists who wouldn't accept me as the team leader!"
"Yaoyao, your adoptive father has confidence in you, so why do you have to belittle yourself?"
Li Jinxing shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Professor Fred believes in you, and so do I. After all, you were the one who first discovered that this artifact dates back to the time of Queen Hasselblad..."
"Li Jinxing, thank you..." Nie Yao looked up at Li Jinxing, whose eyes were full of trust. She stood up and hugged him with a smile: "I know that if it weren't for you, this opportunity would definitely not be mine!"
"Little fool, you have to believe in your own abilities..." Li Jinxing put his arm around her waist, patted the back of her head, and chuckled softly, "I know you can help me solve the mystery of my family and the secret behind this cultural relic. My brother and I both believe you have this ability!"
"Well, I won't let you and your elder brother down!" Nie Yao nodded solemnly. Before she could say anything, her stomach started to growl.
"Are you hungry?" Li Jinxing chuckled, loosened his arms around her, and reached for the phone: "I'll ask them to bring some food over. You didn't eat anything on the plane before..."
Nie Yao nodded honestly, stuck out her tongue and whispered, "I'm a little hungry indeed. In fact, I felt a little hungry just now, but I was so busy discussing cultural relics with them that I even forgot I was hungry..."
"You're so obsessed with sleep that you forget to eat!" Li Jinxing joked amusedly. He opened the cabinet in the room, found some snacks and chocolates, and said with a soft smile, "Eat some snacks first!"
Nie Yao quickly took the chocolate and peeled one. After Li Jinxing ordered his meal with the hotel chef, he pushed his suitcase into the room.
Nie Yao followed him into the room. Looking at the fine dust on the balcony, she subconsciously reached out to touch it and whispered, "The sandstorm in Cairo is still so strong..."
"The air quality is better over there..." Li Jinxing smiled faintly and said softly, "When are you free? Let's go there for a vacation?"
"Let's talk about it later. Once the identification results of the archaeological expert group come out, we will have to carry out archaeological work. We won't have time to go on vacation!" Nie Yao shrugged, shook his head and smiled faintly.
