"So, Yu Qing, Ai Mingyuan...they..."
Fan Xiaofan asked hesitantly.
Shi Lingheng nodded: "They are all watching me for the same purpose, but now it is time for me to retaliate. I will reveal the truth about my elder brother's death to the world."
Fan Xiaofan sighed inwardly.
If Shi Lingheng's death was not a simple accident, then the truth behind it will inevitably make people want to investigate.
So what exactly is the motive for targeting the Shi family? The Shi family's cautious attitude suggests that the enemy behind them is not so simple...
She couldn't help but ask, "Is it dangerous?"
Shi Lingheng's face, which had been somewhat cold and stern when his older brother was mentioned, instantly melted like snow in spring. He reached out and patted her head: "It's dangerous, so I want you to help me, is that okay?"
Fan Xiaofan scratched his head: "Me?"
Shi Lingheng nodded, half-squatted down to look her in the eye, and said with a smile, "You don't need to do anything right now. Just focus on your own work. I'll ask for your help when I'm ready, okay?"
Fan Xiaofan couldn't help but look away from his burning gaze, "Oh..."
Shi Lingheng stood up and walked forward, his voice tinged with amusement: "Let's go, if we don't go back soon, Grandma might get really angry..."
"ha?"
Her big, round eyes stared innocently, bright and clear. Shi Lingheng mimicked her expression, sighing inwardly, wishing he could just kick her into his pocket and take her away.
He touched his chin, feeling a little regretful.
As he approached the hall, he suddenly stopped. Fan Xiaofan, who was following behind him, was caught off guard. He turned around abruptly and bumped into Fan Xiaofan's arms.
Shi Lingheng instinctively protected her little nose, so she wasn't hurt by the impact.
But when Fan Xiaofan looked up at the person, she had a pitiful, accusing expression on her face: "Why did you suddenly stop..."
Shi Lingheng shook his head. What a delicate little thing.
"Does it hurt?"
Shi Lingheng asked.
Fan Xiaofan touched his nose and said that when he bumped into Shi Lingheng, Shi Lingheng used his hand to slightly reduce the force of the impact and then used his other hand to protect him, so it didn't hurt at all. He was just scared.
but……
"pain……"
Fan Xiaofan spoke with a straight face.
Shi Lingheng said in a low, hoarse voice, "How about I compensate you?"
Fan Xiaofan: "..."
She firmly refused; this outcome clearly puts her at a disadvantage...
He quickly changed the subject, asking, "Why did you suddenly stop?"
Shi Lingheng first carefully examined her expression. Although he knew she would be alright, he couldn't help but double-check that she was really okay. He then said, "Because I want to tell you that I won't put myself in danger, because I'm still waiting to marry someone I love."
Fan Xiaofan's eyes darted around, and she pretended to say, "Hey, Grandma seems to be calling us..."
Shi Lingheng chuckled, then suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist, solemnly placing something into her palm...
Fan Xiaofan looked down and saw a small jade kitten in his palm. The emerald agate was warm and smooth to the touch, and the kitten's proud and lifelike expression gave off a strange sense of familiarity...
"This is……"
"This is for you. I happened to meet a craftsman who makes these, and I thought it was interesting, so I learned how to make one. What do you think? Is it alright?"
When faced with a girl they like, men always have an instinct to show off.
Fan Xiaofan poked the kitten in her hand and pouted angrily.
Praise him? Hmph, impossible...
Don't think she can't tell from that cat's expression...
