"But now I have you. Although I will continue to rush forward to protect my teammates who have been through life and death with me, I will definitely be careful because I know you are waiting for me."
"I will accompany you for the rest of my life, from youth to old age, to see all the sights in the world and to travel all over the beautiful mountains and rivers of our motherland."
Xia Jin stretched out his hand and said, "Then we have a deal. No one is allowed to go back on their word. Pinky promise." Gu Jingmo obediently stretched out his hand and made an agreement with Xia Jin.
Fortunately, they were sitting in first class and there were not many people around, so no one saw them doing some childish things.
By the time the plane arrived, Xia Jin's mood had calmed down. Thinking back on what she had just done, she felt really ashamed and embarrassed, but she remained calm and didn't show it at all.
The two of them packed their luggage, got into the car that came to pick them up at the airport, and headed home without stopping. It was already past two in the afternoon when they arrived in Zhuang County.
The two men put down their things, Gu Jingmo went out to buy food, and Xia Jin stayed at home to clean the house, light the stove to warm up the house, and wash all the dishes and chopsticks that needed to be used.
After dinner, the two of them started to take out the things they bought. Some of the perishable items were left outside. Xia Jin also packed up the gifts for friends and would deliver them to them later.
Xia Jin replaced all the quilt covers and sheets with new ones, hung up the clothes, and after tidying up her room, Xia Jin took out the small jade bottle she had bought and placed it next to her pillow. At night, she would enter the space, put the spiritual milk in it, and give it to Gu Jingmo.
After Gu Jingmo finished packing, he said hello to Xia Jin and went to hand over the work to the previous person and quickly took up his post.
Xia Jin packed up and found the small gifts and specialties she had bought for Chen Xin, ready to send them to her. Some things might not go bad if left overnight, but they would definitely not taste good.
It's a good opportunity to stop by and take a look at the two stores in the department store. After all, if I haven't visited them for a long time, the store employees might become disloyal.
Xia Jin walked to the street with her things to wait for the bus. After getting on the bus and buying her ticket, she found a seat and sat down. It was not the end of the working day, so there were still many seats on the bus.
Xia Jin sat in the car all the way to the street where Chen Xin's house was before getting off. He went straight to Chen Xin's house. Xia Jin guessed that someone should be at home at this time. Even if they went back to their hometown for the New Year, they should be back by now. After all, Chen Xin's parents still had to go to work.
Xia Jin knocked on Chen Xin's door skillfully, and Chen Xin came out to open the door. Chen Xin was originally helping her grandmother tidy up the room that was messed up by relatives. When she heard the knock, she hurried to open the door.
As she walked towards the door, she was still wondering who it was. She didn't want to entertain her relatives' children anymore. They were so annoying every day. They touched anything and started crying when they were spoken to.
When Chen Xin opened the door, she saw Xia Jin's bright and smiling face. Xia Jin looked at Chen Xin who opened the door and said happily, "Happy New Year."
"Happy New Year, no, Ajin, you're back. When did you come back?" Chen Xin realized something was wrong after she said that. Seeing that Xia Jin was still carrying some things, she quickly pulled her arm and pulled her into the house, saying, "Come in, come in and talk."
Xia Jin was pulled into the house, and the things in her hand were handed to her, saying, "Here are some specialties I bought for you, and some gifts."
"Xinxin, who is coming here?"
"It's Ajin."
Xia Jin walked through the entrance and said to Grandma Chen, who was tidying up the sofa, "Happy New Year, Grandma."
Grandma Chen said, "Happy New Year. When did you come back?"
"I just got back and bought some local specialties for you. I'm afraid they won't taste good by tomorrow, so I'm sending them over to you first."
As Grandma Chen walked over, she said with some distress: "You bought so many things again. You should keep the money for yourself. You will spend a lot of money on college later. We are very happy that you come to see us. You don't have to buy so many things."
Xia Jin smiled and said, "I'm going on a trip and brought you some local specialties. People usually bring gifts to their relatives when they travel. My dad isn't here, and Chen Xin is my only good friend, so I brought some for you."
"Look, kid, go sit on the sofa. I'll get you some sunflower seeds and candies. You can play with Xinxin for a while first."
Xia Jin and Chen Xin carried all the things Xia Jin bought to the coffee table. Xia Jin opened a bag and took out the sparkling hairpins inside. She placed the novel accessories in front of Chen Xin and said, "I bought all the nice ones over there. Take a look."
Chen Xin looked at the new thing and said happily: "It looks good. I like it, Ajin. How come you are so nice?"
"I'm glad you like it. I also bought you a coat with a great style. Go try it on." Xia Jin took out the coat from the bottom of the bag and handed it to Chen Xin.
Chen Xin took a look at the coat and stood up to put it on impatiently. After putting it on, she asked Xia Jin, "Does it look good?"
"nice."
Grandma Chen came back with the things and saw Chen Xin showing off her new clothes. She said to Xia Jin, "Xiao Jin, don't buy her such expensive things in the future. She's already showing off. Save the money for yourself."
"It's okay, grandma. Chen Xin is usually very nice to me. I'll be very happy if my friends like the gifts I give them."
After Chen Xin finished her boasting, she sat down and said, "Do you think I'll surprise them if I wear this to school?"
"Yes, you can wear it. This dress is a new model from the south. It should still be very new here. It's likely that no one has worn it yet."
"Okay, I really love you so much, Jin."
Xia Jin smiled, took out the perishable items from the roast duck and handed them to Grandma Chen, saying, "Grandma, you can eat these in the next few nights. They will spoil easily after being left out for a day."
"Okay, okay." He put the things in the kitchen and came out and said to Xia Jin, "Xiao Jin, have dinner here tonight."
Xia Jin said, "No need, grandma. I have to go to the store later. I haven't been there since it opened during the Chinese New Year."
"Then you go ahead and do your work. Come over to eat when you have time. Or if you don't have time to cook, you can come over to eat at grandma's."
"Okay, I understand. In order not to disturb her granddaughter and Xia Jin's private conversation, Grandma Chen saved her own room and went to talk to Grandpa Chen, leaving the space for them.
After watching her good friend finish talking to her grandmother, Chen Xin pulled Xia Jin and said, "Tell me quickly if Beijing is fun, and whether your boyfriend's family is nice to you."
