Upon returning home, Lin Xiaoxiao immediately opened the box.
"Qin Yushen, come here quickly."
Qin Yushen, who had just entered the kitchen to put the aquatic products in the tank, heard the noise and rushed out of the kitchen. "What's wrong?"
He thought something had happened to Lin Xiaoxiao.
His tone was clearly anxious.
Lin Xiaoxiao grabbed his hand and showed him the box. Qin Yu glanced at it and his gaze lingered for a moment.
The two looked at each other, unsure of what to say.
After a long while, Lin Xiaoxiao asked, "So many, should we buy them?"
Lin Xiaoxiao had some guesses about what was inside the box. The medicine she gave Xiaobao was extremely precious in the eyes of the Chu family. Receiving their kindness was one thing, but giving them the right to repay them was another.
Her boldest guess was that the tin box contained a box full of banknotes, totaling no more than ten thousand.
However, she underestimated the sincerity of the Chu family.
The box was indeed full, but it wasn't filled with money; instead, it contained a savings account with 50,000 yuan and a large quantity of jewelry.
At first glance, it almost blinded her with its greenness.
There was also a small note in the box, which Wan Fen put there. It roughly said that the savings book was a token of her and Chu Xiaonian's affection, and the jewelry was a gift from Cheng Muxi.
Cheng Muxi and his wife had nothing to repay Lin Xiaoxiao with; they didn't have much money and had low material desires, so these jewels were the only things they could offer.
Fearing that Lin Xiaoxiao wouldn't accept it, he gave it to her in this way, hoping that she would definitely accept it.
If it were just some ordinary small pieces of jewelry, Lin Xiaoxiao would accept them without any qualms.
However, Cheng Muxi and Chu Wuxuan gave them all top-quality items, any one of which would be a treasure of a museum in later generations.
The couple must have emptied their savings to give this thank-you gift.
"Take it," Qin Yushen said.
Since the Chu family has already given it, there's no reason to return it.
They did this because they didn't want them to refuse.
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded and put everything away.
It was so precious that her heart still trembles.
Especially the largest one inside, its value is at least equivalent to two courtyard houses of the same size as theirs.
"Honey, are you busy tomorrow?" Lin Xiaoxiao nestled in Qin Yushen's arms as she was about to fall asleep when she suddenly remembered something, opened her eyes, and looked up.
Qin Yushen closed his eyes, and without looking, he accurately caught her forehead. He lowered his head and kissed it, his voice magnetic and pleasant, "Speak, what is it?"
Lin Xiaoxiao usually calls him by his full name.
For her to call him "husband," it's either during sex, she's being affectionate, or she needs something from him.
If the first two reasons are impossible under these circumstances, then only one reason remains.
Lin Xiaoxiao chuckled and rubbed her forehead against his chin. "My friend is coming to our house tomorrow."
"Okay, don't worry." Qin Yu smiled and pinched her nose. "Just say what you need. Why are you worried about bothering me?"
As he spoke, he noticed the blanket had slipped down, so he reached out and pulled it up.
A chill ran through the blankets, and Lin Xiaoxiao snuggled closer to him. "I was just worried you were too busy to have time."
She received a letter from Guan Yue yesterday; they are coming to Beijing tomorrow and will be visiting her home.
Guan Yue and Guan Shan, along with Zaolin Xiaoxiao, had been in Beijing for almost a month. After handing over their mission, they also took a month's leave to go back to Guangzhou to spend some time with their parents.
Upon learning that Lin Xiaoxiao had returned, and with their vacation nearing its end, the siblings returned to Beijing ahead of schedule.
As luck would have it, Zhu Yuqi is also arriving tomorrow.
Judging from the train's travel time, it seems she only changed trains in Jiangcheng and didn't stay for the full half-day.
Zhu Yuqi is such a mysterious woman that Lin Xiaoxiao still hasn't figured her out.
During the days spent adrift at sea from Manila to the port city, the more Lin Xiaoxiao spent with her, the more she felt a sense of mutual appreciation.
All three teammates are planning to visit my home tomorrow, so we need to figure out what to do about their meals.
Lin Xiaoxiao can cook simple meals, which are fine for her own consumption, but not presentable enough for entertaining guests.
She thought that if Qin Yu was busy, she could simply take them to a state-run restaurant for a meal.
"I was just about to tell you, I might have to go on a mission in a couple of days. I don't have much to do tomorrow, so you'll be free." Even if he wasn't free, Qin Yushen would still make time for it.
There's an 80% chance he'll be leading a mission, but it's unclear how long he'll be gone.
"Alright, I'll be counting on you tomorrow," Lin Xiaoxiao said with a smile.
She wasn't worried at all about Qin Yu's mission.
Under normal circumstances, with his supernatural abilities protecting him, his life would not be threatened.
Moreover, with his current strength, it would be difficult for him to get injured.
—
Guan Yue and Guan Shan arrived at 1 p.m., just after Lin Xiaoxiao had finished lunch.
"My goodness, boss, your house is so big! Won't you get lost here?" Guan Yue climbed up the courtyard wall like a monkey, looking at the huge courtyard house with amazement.
"Get down quickly, or someone might see you and mistake you for a thief," Lin Xiaoxiao said.
Guan Yue pinched her ear and smiled smugly, "Boss, don't try to fool me, there's no one living around your house."
Now it was Lin Xiaoxiao's turn to be surprised.
Her house is surrounded by large courtyard houses, all of which are owned, but few people actually live there.
It goes without saying how vast this area is.
I knew Guan Yue had sensitive hearing, but I didn't expect it to be this sensitive.
They are truly blessed by nature.
Guan Shan explained to Lin Xiaoxiao, "She can only hear sounds within a radius of about one mile."
"The closer you are, the clearer you can hear it."
He's a talent who excels at everything he does.
