They cuddled together for a while, and then Zong Jia asked, "Little Pear, why did you suddenly ask this today?"
Jiang Xiaoli blinked and stammered, "Well, I just suddenly wanted to ask."
"Hmm?" Zong Jia's eyes flickered. "Little Pear has a little secret?"
After thinking about it, she felt there was nothing to hide, so she simply told Xu Xing about it.
Zong Jia chuckled softly, "It seems my feeling before was right."
? ? ?
Jiang Xiaoli felt a string of question marks in her mind, and they held hands and spun around in circles. "What does this mean?"
"Can 'Little Pear' be interpreted as a keen sense of rivals in love?" Zong Jiayu pinched her cheek and said lightly, "I haven't met Xu Xing many times, but the way he looks at me is always scrutinizing, which makes me think a lot."
A strange expression crept across her face. "Ayu, I've suddenly realized you're actually a little cunning."
Discovering a rival and observing him discreetly is only possible with someone as reserved as Xu Xing. If someone were to actively express their feelings and try to steal him away, he would probably have dealt with them before they even had a chance to act.
Zong Jia shrugged. "Protecting our territory from invasion is what I should do."
Jiang Xiaoli couldn't help but chuckle, "Ayu, I never thought you were such a jealous person!"
Zong Jia hugged her tightly. "Little Pear, I'm just more safety-conscious. I don't want anything to happen that could lead to losing you."
Her heart softened, and she hugged his neck, whispering in his ear, "Ayu, you're so good to me."
She doesn't know what it feels like for other couples to be together, but she will always be immersed in this sense of security.
Zong Jia leaned over and kissed her lips, "Little Pear, call me 'husband' so I can hear it?"
She chuckled softly, and moved her arms, which were around his neck, down to press against his chest.
A soft, sweet voice rang out, "Honey~ Would you like to have roast duck or pears for dinner first?"
Zong Jia's eyes darkened, and he lifted her up by her bottom, saying, "Let's eat together."
That night, Pear, who had been eaten as a topping in a burrito by someone, lay in the bathtub and muttered softly, "Pervert, pervert, pervert! Is it too late to call off the engagement now?"
Calling back the engagement is out of the question; the wedding will proceed as scheduled.
After confirming the information of all relatives and friends and arranging the company's affairs, on October 12th, the unmarried young couple, along with Li Guizhi, Xiao Jincheng and his wife, and several security personnel, boarded a plane to Chongqing.
All the follow-up matters in Kyoto were handled by Jiang Ruilin, Jiang Chengle (uncle and nephew), and Dafu.
This was Xiao Jincheng's first time going abroad, and he was a little nervous. "Little Pear, I heard your aunt say that when you enter the country, foreigners stop you and ask what you're doing there. What should I do if I can't understand a word of English?"
Jiang Xiaoli smiled and said, "Uncle Xiao, don't worry. Many of the staff speak some Chinese. Besides, we're all in line with you. If all else fails, we can be your translators."
Xu Feng was a little annoyed with him, "I told you to learn a few English phrases before, but you were so stubborn and refused to learn no matter what. What's the rush now?"
Xiao Jincheng smiled ingratiatingly at his wife, "Feng'er, how can my brain be as smart as yours? I really can't learn it. When we get there, you have to stay by my side, otherwise I'll be completely helpless. What if you lose me?"
Jiang Xiaoli couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Uncle Xiao, your phone number has international roaming enabled. If what you're talking about really happens, you can just call us."
Xu Feng, however, became a little worried. She asked the flight attendant for paper and pen and wrote down their contact information, as well as Jiang Xiaoli's apartment address in Chongqing.
"Here you go! Keep this piece of paper safe. If you really lose your phone and don't have it on you, just show this note to a passerby. I wrote on it that I'll reward you for bringing it back."
Xiao Jincheng quickly folded the small note and put it in the inside pocket of his clothes.
He turned a corner and sensed something was off. "Feng'er, why does this note you gave me feel like the dog tag our neighbor puts around her dog's neck? It has the owner's contact number and stuff written on it."
"Pfft!" His words amused the people around him.
Xu Feng laughed so hard she could barely breathe. "What, you're still complaining? If you're not, then throw it away!"
Xiao Jincheng pursed his lips. He was unconvinced, but he still didn't plan to take out the little note. "Fine, a dog tag it is. Even a tiger can be bullied by dogs when it's down on its luck. A true man can bend and stretch!"
“Uncle Xiao—” Jiang Xiaoli said, suppressing a laugh, “How about I teach you a few common phrases? If you learn a few and use hand gestures, even a foreigner can probably understand the gist of it.”
Xiao Jincheng immediately stood up and patted Zong Jiayu on the shoulder, "Xiao Zong, let's switch seats. I'll learn from Teacher Xiao Lizi."
The first-class cabin on this flight was filled with their people. The two of them weren't afraid of disturbing others; one taught and the other learned.
Xiao Jincheng was probably really afraid of getting lost from the group in a foreign country, so he studied very hard.
While everyone in the cabin was fast asleep that night, he was still silently practicing the few sentences that Jiang Xiaoli had just taught him.
At 9:15 a.m. local time, their flight landed at Chengdu International Airport, and they quickly passed through customs via the fast lane.
Xiao Jincheng muttered to himself, "Why did that foreigner just glance at my passport, not ask any questions, and then stamp it and let me go?"
Zong Jiayu explained with a smile, "Uncle Xiao, Xiao Lizi just explained to the customs officers that we are together."
"Tsk! Looks like customs isn't as mysterious as they say!"
Xu Feng tugged at his arm, "Stop dawdling, hurry up and go! Xiaoyu is still waiting outside!"
Seeing that they were about to leave without looking back, Xiao Jincheng asked, "Aren't we taking our luggage?"
Jiang Xiaoli thoughtfully explained, "Uncle Xiao, the airline will deliver the luggage to your home later, so we don't need to worry about it."
Xiao Jincheng rubbed his forehead. "Hey! Going abroad makes me feel like a country bumpkin!"
Xu Feng chuckled lightly, "You think you're so sophisticated?"
The couple were bickering in the back when Jiang Xiaoli threw herself at Xiao Muyu, asking, "Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu, did you miss me?"
Xiao Muyu was hugged so tightly by her that she almost lost her balance and took two steps back.
She steadied herself and said, "I've been thinking about it. Why are there only the two of you? Where are my parents and aunt?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Xu Feng punching Xiao Jincheng, muttering something, but it was clear that her father had been scolded again.
