Not long later, Mi Qi walked out from the bathroom. When she saw the empty bag and two empty soy milk cups on the table, she immediately asked in surprise: "Xiang Ge, have you finished eating?"

"Mm …" "We're done eating!"

As Xiang Anjie rubbed his stomach, he nodded his head. "Sorry to trouble you, Xiao Mi!"

"It's nothing, this is what I should do!"

With that, Mi Qi sat in the living room, while Xiang Anjie poured her a cup of water: "Come, drink a cup of water!"

Thank you, Xiang Ge. Mi Qi took the water and said.

After all, with Mi Qi here, Xiang Anjie had no choice but to sit down: "How about it? "How was your rest yesterday?"

"Right now, I'm like a cell phone filled with electricity. I'm full of energy and ready to work at any time!"

Saying that, Mi Qi put on the appearance of a strong sailor.

Seeing her like this, Xiang Anjie couldn't help but smile: This young man really has energy!

After all, this showed that the sacrifices made by his comrades back then were not meaningless. It was because of the hard work they put in in to fight and their sacrifice that allowed them to establish the new China, allowing the young people today to work hard in this peaceful and peaceful country and live a peaceful life.

And seeing Xiang Anjie's smile, Mi Qi's heart warmed. This uncle in front of him who looked very mature, although he usually didn't smile at all, every time he revealed a sincere smile, was like a spring in the middle of a mountain, bringing along the purest form of warmth, refreshing and refreshing.

"Oh right, Xiang Ge …"

Perhaps it was because of this smile, which made Mi Qi more daring. "I have a question that I've always wanted to ask you, and I don't know if it's possible to say it?"

"Of course, go ahead!"

Xiang Anjie nodded.

"That... Your surname is obviously Xiang, but why is your daughter called Bai Linger? "Also, the age difference between you father and daughter …"

As she finished speaking, Bai Linger laughed in embarrassment.

"This!"

Regarding this question, Xiang Anjie and Bai Linger had already thought of an excuse long ago, so at this moment, Xiang Anjie was not as nervous as he was before, "Actually, Ling Er is not my biological child. She is my sister's daughter, many years ago, my sister married into the United States and had Bai Linger with an American brother-in-law, but because of a car accident, both of them disappeared, and the young Ling Er was not taken care of by anyone, but because the American police contacted me later on, I was able to adopt Ling Er, and her nationality passed from the United States to China! "

"So that's how it is!"

Hearing that, Mi Qi's face was filled with surprise: It seems like Mi Qi was originally a mixed bloodline of the United States. However, Xiang Ge, at that time, Ling Er was very young, you transferred her household register from the United States to China. After all, many young people in our country are fighting to get an American green card these days! "

Xiang Anjie smiled slightly: "She doesn't blame me. Ling Er is very sensible, she isn't like those people who have forgotten their ancestors. There is Chinese blood flowing in her body, and she likes this country a lot!"

"That's really rare."

Saying that, Mi Qi shyly lowered her head, but in her heart, she was cheering herself on: Mi Qi, do your best!

After taking a deep breath, Mi Qi raised her head. "Xiang Ge, since you have adopted Ling Er now, have you never thought of marrying a woman? After all, only husband and wife can give Ling Er a complete home! "

Hearing this question, Xiang Anjie's expression froze, the atmosphere in the living room became awkward for a moment.

Two seconds later, Xiang Anjie opened his mouth and said: "Sigh, I have never thought about this kind of thing. On one hand, you should know that we are extremely busy as detectives, so how could we care about such things? Furthermore, Ling Er has already lived with me for a long time. Even though we aren't real father and daughter, our relationship is even closer than some biological father and daughter. I'm worried that if we were to find someone else, Ling Er would find it very hard to accept … "

But hearing that, Mi Qi didn't agree, "Xiang Ge, I think you're wrong! Because you are usually busy with work, you need a virtuous wife to help you take care of the chores and take care of Ling Er. Ling Er is now a high school student, right? However, her body was clearly smaller and skinnier than most of the female high school students. What did this mean? This meant that she did not have a proper meal at home, and her body did not thrive. If this continued, then it would not do. In the event of poor nutrition, the consequences would be very serious! As for what you said about her not accepting, I don't think that's necessary, right? Ling Er is a very sensible girl. If I can find a stepmother who is sincerely good to her, she should be able to understand you! "

Hearing that, Xiang Anjie was speechless again.

Indeed, Bai Linger's body was thinner and thinner than the middle school girls of this era, who were around fifteen or sixteen years old. But this was because in the era of the War of Resistance Against Japan back then, there was not enough food for the masses. But after turning into a zombie, no matter how much she ate, her body would never change again. This was because the zombie's growth would often stop at the moment he turned into a zombie, which was also known as' immortality '.

Therefore, after thinking about it, he sighed: This kind of thing isn't as easy as you make it out to be. I'm completely focused on my work and I don't have the time to take care of my family.

"I like you!"

At this time, Mi Qi suddenly jumped up and blurted out.

"…"

"…"

"…"

However, after saying this, the living room fell into a deathly silence.

Xiang Anjie opened his eyes wide, and looked at Mi Qi with a face full of astonishment.

Mi Qi was also a bit embarrassed: Hey, why did I speak my mind?

But then he thought: That's right. I'll have to say it sooner or later. I might as well say it earlier, so that I won't have to worry too much about it.

Thinking to this point, Mi Qi clenched her teeth and stood up: "Xiang Ge, I have actually always liked you, if you are willing … Can you give me a chance to take care of you and Ling Er? "

When he finished speaking, Mi Qi's face was thoroughly red. She looked like a pink, red apple, very cute.

But facing this scene, Xiang Anjie was helpless.

Looking at Mi Qi who had a face full of apprehension but whose eyes were filled with sincerity and enthusiasm, Xiang Anjie laughed awkwardly, "Xiao Mi, don't joke with me …"

"It's not a joke, I'm serious!"

Before Xiang Anjie even finished speaking, Mi Qi interrupted him with an excited expression: "From the first day I saw you, Xiang Ge, I've been attracted to you. I …"

"Xiao Mi!"

At this time, Xiang Anjie reached out his hand and indicated for Mi Qi to stop. "I am very happy that you like me, and also very grateful to you! But Mi Qi, you have to know, the two of us aren't suitable at all! "

"Ai!"

Bai Linger, who was in the room, helplessly shook her head.

But in the middle of the living room, Mi Qi became anxious: "Why not? I think it's very suitable! Xiang Ge, you said that you were busy with work and did not have time to take care of your family. If you are willing, I am willing to give up my job and focus on taking care of your family! And I really like Ling Er as well. If you agree, I'm also very willing to take care of Ling Er. I believe that if I get together with her, they will definitely get along well! "

Seeing Mi Qi being so anxious, Xiang Anjie felt his head hurt, but he still waved his hand, "Xiao Mi, don't be so agitated yet, listen to me! I came here when I was young, and I know that young people are often controlled by emotions and make choices without much thought! But I'm not young anymore, and I know that the two of us are not suitable for each other. If the two of us are together, it would be equivalent to killing you! Think about it, you are only twenty-four years old, and I am already over thirty. You and I are six or seven years apart, will your family agree? Furthermore, I have a child with me. It would be too much of an injustice for you to marry me! "

"I won't feel wronged, I definitely won't feel wronged either!"

Xiang Anjie lightly patted Mi Qi's shoulder. "Xiao Mi, I can't hurt you. You are an outstanding and kind girl, so you should have your own happiness. I believe that in the future, you will definitely be able to find a better man than me! "

"No, there is nothing better than you, Xiang Ge. I have already determined that in this world, you are the man I like the most! The age difference you're talking about isn't a problem at all. Isn't there a lot of happiness after a marriage between a guy and a girl of about ten years of age? As for my family, although they may not accept it in the beginning, but I believe that they will eventually understand me. After all, this is my happiness, and is not something they can control! "

The current Mi Qi was obviously very emotional, Xiang Anjie felt that he was almost unable to hold her back any longer, "Uhh … You... How do you know I'm the right man for you? Have we ever known each other? Do you know the flaws in me? When two people live together, it is based on mutual understanding and mutual tolerance. If you don't understand me now, how can you truly love me? "So Xiaomi, stop saying, just let us keep our distance from each other and be colleagues!"

Xiang Anjie's words were like a bucket of cold water that poured down from above Mi Qi's head. She was so excited that he instantly calmed down and lowered her head, not saying another word.

Seeing her like this, Xiang Anjie's heart ached, but he knew that he had to say this! Even if these words would temporarily hurt this girl, it was better to be in pain than to be in pain. If he was really with her, then he wouldn't be happy at all. He would only feel endless pain and torment.

He had had enough of watching the people around him die and grow old, but he himself had not changed at all. He was now living in this world! This kind of eternal life was only a painful curse for himself and the ordinary people beside him.

So for all these years, he and Bai Linger had been searching for a way to turn the two of them back into normal people. They did not want to die forever, they only wanted to live a short but precious life like normal humans.

Just then, Mi Qi suddenly started sobbing.

"Xiao Mi …"

Seeing that, Xiang Anjie wanted to console her, but Mi Qi turned and ran out of Xiang Anjie's house.

"Thump!"

Hearing the sound of the anti-theft door closing, Xiang Anjie sighed and then helplessly sat down on the sofa.

"I say … Isn't that a bit too much? "

At this time, Bai Linger walked out of the room, looked at Xiang Anjie and said: "Mi Qi is such a good girl, why don't you cherish her? If she likes you so much, why do you want to hurt her? "

"No, you're wrong. If I agree to her request, then I will really hurt her!" Xiang Anjie shook his head and said meaningfully.
