Chapter 723: Can’t Do Whatever You Want
"Even if you're doing archaeology, you still need to rest. The Red Sea isn't far from here, it's all within Egypt!" Li Jinxing stroked her hair and said with a smile, "At most, I'll be gone for two days and then I'll be back..."
Nie Yao responded noncommittally. Li Jinxing, noticing this, smiled and asked, "Since you're worried about affecting your work, why don't you go for a walk nearby before it starts?"
"Let's go to the pyramid to watch the light show tonight?" Nie Yao became interested when she heard this and suggested to Li Jinxing excitedly.
"Night light show, at the pyramid?" Li Jinxing frowned slightly and asked in a low voice.
"No?" Seeing that he didn't seem interested, Nie Yao could only shrug and sigh, "If you're not interested, forget it..."
"Yaoyao, it's not that I'm not interested, but there are too many people over there. Not just tourists, but also some people of unknown origin wandering around. I'm worried about their safety!"
Li Jinxing held her hand and whispered a reminder: "We came to Cairo secretly this time. If we bring the military and bodyguards to a place with too many tourists, I'm afraid it will attract attention and provoke those who are hiding behind it..."
"Yeah, then let's not go!" Although Nie Yao felt regretful, what was more important now was Li Jinxing's safety!
Li Jinxing had last encountered that gang of criminals in Egypt. No one knew where they were hiding in Egypt, so to be on the safe side, they couldn't act too arbitrarily...
"You have a long flight today, so just stay in the villa and have a good rest, and adjust to the time difference!" Li Jinxing patted the back of her hand and said with a smile.
Nie Yao nodded and replied with a smile, "Alright, I'll just go sort out my notes..."
Just then, the doorbell rang and the hotel waiter came in pushing a food cart.
The two of them had a sumptuous lunch together. After Nie Yao finished the last strawberry, she burped contentedly and began to feel sleepy while sitting on the sofa.
"Yaoyao, if you're sleepy, go to bed and take a nap..." Li Jinxing saw her dozing off on the sofa, so he pulled her up and advised her softly.
"What about you?" Nie Yao rubbed her eyes, unable to hide the tiredness on her face.
"I still have some things to take care of. I'll arrange company matters with my eldest brother and hold an online meeting. You can go to your room and take a nap!"
Li Jinxing said softly, and Nie Yao did not disturb him. She nodded and got up to go to the bedroom.
After Nie Yao went to the bedroom to sleep, Li Jinxing picked up his cell phone and called his elder brother Li Yaofeng.
"Hello, brother, it's me. We're in Cairo now. We just completed the handover ceremony with the Supreme Committee of Antiquities. Our heirloom has now been handed over to them..."
Li Jinxing whispered the situation to his eldest brother and added, "Well, after a brief argument, they finally agreed to my terms and let Yaoyao be the archaeological team leader!"
Li Yaofeng on the other end of the phone nodded slightly with a satisfied smile, and said in a deep voice, "Okay, Jingxing, everything will be fine as long as it's settled. You and Nie Yao can stay in Egypt for a while without worry. I'll take care of the company here. By the way, I've already taken care of Lin Xiaoxiao's matter..."
"Handle it?" Li Jinxing was stunned and asked doubtfully: "How was it handled? Isn't she still in the hospital for observation?"
