Fan Xi, who was in a daze, responded subconsciously: "It looks good~"
After he finished speaking, Fan Xi came back to his senses. Fan Xi, whose mind was not pure at all, realized what he had just said, and his cheeks suddenly turned slightly red.
"Um... Comrade Zhao, what I meant was that I simply thought you were pretty... nothing else..."
Alas, Fan Xi felt that the more he explained, the worse it got. It would be better not to explain!
When Zhao Yilu heard this, the corners of his mouth quickly rose, and he didn't hide his happiness at all.
"Thank you for the compliment, Comrade Fan. Comrade Fan is also very beautiful!"
No, Fan Qi was speechless... How did this turn into a business conversation?
However, the atmosphere between them became much more relaxed this time. Just like the previous phone call, they chatted casually and freely, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
After the meal was served, Zhao Yi Lu noticed that Fan Xi was only eating the plate of spicy and sour bamboo shoots, leaving the other dishes untouched. He asked in confusion, "Comrade Fan, don't you like meat?"
"My appetite hasn't been very good recently. I prefer to eat light food. You don't have to worry about me. Just eat more." After saying that, Fan Xi also picked up some meat and vegetables and put them into Zhao Yilu's bowl.
Zhao Yilu watched Fan Xi pick up food for him by herself, and his heart was warm. He couldn't help but imagine that it would be wonderful if he could live an ordinary life with Fan Xi like this in the future.
"By the way, Comrade Zhao, how many days will you stay in Yangcheng for this exercise?"
"The rehearsal competition takes five days, but I will stay in Guangzhou for seven days. If I can squeeze out some time after the rehearsal, I will come to see you again." Zhao Yilu said as a matter of course.
"No need. It's too much trouble for you to come here. It's not worth it."
"Worth it!" Zhao Yilu simply replied with two words and continued eating.
Fan Xi was also helpless. She wanted to return the pen and allowance that Zhao Yilu had just sent her, and said seriously, "You don't have to be so nice to me. I don't blame your brother, but you don't have to do this for him."
Zhao was silent all the way... He pursed his lips and looked at his watch. He could only stay for another seven minutes...
Seeing that Zhao Yilu didn't reply, Fan Xi continued, "I really like the pen you sent me, so I'll keep it. I'll also take the 120 yuan. Don't keep thinking about sending me your allowance from now on. I'm doing well now. I received another 500 yuan in compensation for my hospitalization this time, plus the 500 yuan reward for capturing an enemy spy last time. Even if I don't work anymore, it's enough to live in Guangzhou for several years. You...you should have your own life. I shouldn't be a part of your life anymore..."
When Fan Xi spoke about the latter part, she felt very heavy-hearted. She wanted to completely cut off contact with Zhao Yilu. She felt inexplicably uncomfortable, but she also felt that it was not a good thing for the two of them to be entangled like this. He would suddenly come to find her this time, and he might do so in the future...
Sooner or later, she would have to hide her pregnancy. Even though their relationship was pretty good now, it wasn't a good thing to keep it that way. She was afraid that she would fall in love with this boy...
Zhao looked at Fan Xi carefully all the way, and only spoke seriously after she finished speaking, "Li Xi..." He had wanted to do this to her for a long time.
"It's not just because of what happened that night in the village, but because I really want to be good to you. It's not because of my brother, it's not because of anyone! Can you put aside the unpleasant memories of the past and get to know me again? Give me a chance, so that we can get to know each other better?"
Fan Xi's heartbeat quickened as she listened to Zhao Yilu's rambling words. What did he mean? Was it what she understood?
Immediately afterwards, Fan Xi heard Zhao Yilu's even more ambitious promise...
