"So?" Lu Bai wasn't surprised at all. "What do you want to say?"

"I'm surprised to hear that." "Last time when I let him go, it was because of our classmate. Secondly, his old grandma needs someone to rely on. I thought that after he returned, he would regret it and ignore the Nangong family."

That man called Nangong Yan Lie said that he couldn't remember if there was someone called Qi Lei over there, but he had some impression of this name … This meant that Qi Lei had most likely gone to the Nangong Family.

"This matter is over." Lu Bai said, "You won't be bothered by it. I'll take care of the rest …"

"Lu Bai, I won't say whether or not I'll regret letting Lei go, because as you said, whether or not I regret it later on, it's all in the past. It can't be changed." An Xia said, "However, when I was still in university, I met Qi Lei's grandmother. I heard that the old man is currently in the hospital, right? I want to take a look …"

"You have nothing to do." Lu Bai said, "There are a lot of old people in this world. There are also a lot of old people who can only survive in the orphanage with no one to rely on. Your love and sympathy are not enough."

An Xia didn't expect Lu Bai to say that for a moment.

It was a little awkward.

"What?! That's not how you say it." An Xia'er awkwardly said, "CEO Lu, primary school students will organize a weekend to go to the orphanage to see the old man. I just happen to have some time these few days to visit an old man I used to know …" Is there any problem with that? "

"Do you think so?" Lu Bai asked her.

"I know that Thunder you let me go …"

"I'm not so bored with that." Lu Bai said, "We'll talk about it later tonight. I'll have Xiuyuan book a candlelight dinner outside."

"Oh."

Anshel grunted in agreement.

The two of them ate dinner in harmony. As sweet as it was, they did not mention what had happened during the day.

When they got back to the car, Anchor carried the bouquet of flowers that Lu Bai had given her with a beautiful curve in his eye. "It's so beautiful. Although the roses are beautiful, but the tulips are so elegant. Why don't you buy any?"

"Let's see if you like anything else." Lu Bai, wearing a casual suit with his legs crossed, looked at her and said, "It's good as long as you like it."

"Of course I like it." An Xia'er winked at him. "Don't worry. I'll like even a blade of grass if you give it to me ~"

"…"

Lu Bai was startled.

Anxia hummed a song called "I caught a cold in that corner" while looking at the flowers in her hands with great delight. The yellow tulips were bright and lively and beautiful, with stars surrounding them, wrapped in white paper bundles, tied with a golden silk ribbon, and tied with a flower …

She didn't bring up the topic about the day anymore. If Lu Bai really didn't agree, then she wouldn't be going to see Grandmother Lei Lei … She didn't want to ruin their present happiness.

Lu Bai looked at her happy face as she fiddled with the flowers. "You have nothing to tell me?"

"Nope." An Xia said.

"…" Lu Bai sighed and put his arm around her shoulders, "Do you want to see that old man because you want to go yourself or for that classmate of yours?"

An Xia'er blinked as she looked at the side of Lu Bai's face. She was a little surprised that he would suddenly raise this topic.

"Of course I want to go." "I saw that old man at school before."

Grandmother Qi Lei came to their school to look for Qi Lei. An Xia'er brought her in …

Just as she was about to say that he wouldn't agree, Lu Bai said, "Bring a few more bodyguards over tomorrow, and come back as soon as possible in the afternoon. Maintain phone calls along the way."

"…"

Did he just agree to it?

An Xia'er looked at Lu Bai for a long time before smiling. "Alright."

Lu Bai nodded, and used his hand to stroke her hair, which had already grown past her shoulder.

He was extremely fond of her and did not want to refuse her request …

"Lu Bai." After a while, An Xia'er called to her.

"Yes."

Lu Bai turned around and looked at him.

Anxia's eyes were sparkling like crystals as she looked at him. "Where did the tie clip you gave me last time go?" Give it to me again. "

"What for?" Lu Bai snappily replied, "There's only one chance, if you use it, then it's gone."

"No, give it to me again." "Just like you said, it's like a bond to us. But this time, you can make a request to me, and I'll agree to it the same way you promised me last time."

"…" Lu Bai narrowed his brown eyes. "Request?"

"Right."

An Xia said she was also willing to give Lu Bai an opportunity that he would agree to no matter what he asked for.

Lu Bai pinched her chin, "Then shouldn't you give me something?"

"…"

Eh?

An Xia'er blinked in surprise.

After returning to the Nine Dragons Courtyard, An Xia'er kept chasing him, "Lu Bai, give it to me. I really want it. This is very important to us …"

In the hall below, Steward Wei's face stiffened when he heard An Xia's words.

Jingjing and Little Wen's faces were red:

"Young Madam …"

"How bold."

They wanted to chase after their young master...

"Cough, cough." "What are you guys doing? As servants, you dare to talk about your masters. Listen carefully, it's a good thing that the young madam and eldest young master love each other. The young madam is thin-skinned, so don't say anything to make her shy in front of her!"

"Yes …"

Jingjing and Little Wen immediately lowered their heads.

Ah!" Pain, pain, pain … "Softer!" An Xia'er's voice suddenly came from Lu Bai's study upstairs.

Jing Jing and Xiao-Wen were startled, their hearts surged with incomparable emotion … This, this, their eldest young master and their young mistress had been so fierce the moment they returned? At least close the door, they were all single!

Steward Wei's face stiffened again, but he immediately regained his composure. He stood in front of the two maids with his hands behind his back, "Let the kitchen postpone dinner. No one is allowed to disturb me before Eldest Young Master and the others come down. Understood?"

"..." "Understood."

Jingjing and Xiaowen could only blush and agree.

Upstairs, in the study.

Lu Bai held An Xia'er's wrist and frowned, "It's the same as when I answered your question. No matter what request I make, you will agree, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes." An Xia'er sucked in a breath of cold air and pointed at her hand. "Let go first. It's painful."

"…"

Lu Bai narrowed his eyes and released her hand.

"Whew." An Xia'er hurriedly rubbed her jade wrist as she complained, "What are you doing? You're hurting me. I don't have anything for you, but I want to keep the collar clip you gave me last time. If you don't, then forget it."

Why are you still holding her hand!?

She also kept her word, alright? It was like she needed to confirm …

"You don't want it?" Lu Bai suddenly took out the tie clip, "I was just about to give it to you."

Ah!" Pain, pain, pain … "Softer!" An Xia'er's voice suddenly came from Lu Bai's study upstairs.

An Xia turned around and saw Lu Bai holding the tie clip.

An Xia's eyes immediately lit up. She immediately smiled and said, "Yes, quickly give it to me!"

Just as she reached out her hand, the hand Lu Bai held up with the band clip curled up into a smile.

"Then how can you thank me?"

Anthea, not as tall as he, kept on tiptoeing like a child, reaching for it.

"How else can I thank you?" As she fought over the food, she said, "I don't have as much money as you do, nor is there anything special about me. I'm all yours, and you don't even know how to eat my food. How can I thank you?!"

Lu Bai raised an eyebrow. "That's true."

"Hurry up and give it to me!"

Anthea couldn't wait to stretch out her hand.

Lu Bai put his hands behind his back and said, "Then kiss me."

"What is it?"

An Xia'er pouted and raised her face to kiss him.

Lu Bai no longer teased her. He bent his face down and lightly kissed her lips, then pulled her into his embrace.

Many years later, Lu Bai would never be able to forget the pure and innocent An Xia'er, this precious girl that was worth him protecting for the rest of his life.

— —

On the second day, Lu Bai specially arranged for Steward Wei and several bodyguards to accompany An Xia'er. After all, An Xia'er's university was in a foreign land.

She was afraid that it would cause a sensation if someone recognized her in the hospital. She changed into casual clothes and specially prepared a baseball cap, sunglasses, and a face mask.

When she closed the drawer, she saw the stack of old keys in it.

— The key to the Xia family's lavender villa.

Lu Bai gave the Xia Family's villa and the key back to her.

A while ago, An Xia'er had already asked Manager Lu to send someone to City D to clean up the Xia family's villa … Thinking of this, An Xia'er took the bunch of keys and placed them in a jewelry box along with the rest of the items left behind by the Duke of Xia.

Apart from the ring, the documents had been glued together, but they were only the internal documents of the 'Promethean' cosmetics company. They didn't have anything related to the Xia family, so it was hard to tell.

"Sigh." Anxia sighed as she looked at them. "Although I've never seen you all before, nor have I any memories from my childhood, I'll definitely keep your things. Don't worry, father."

The phone rang.

Anthea picked up her bag and went downstairs as she picked it up.

"Hello, why is Editor-in-Chief Zhan calling so early?"

"Why?" Zhan Qian grunted, "You're not answering my call tonight. You can say that you and Lu Bai are busy …" Can't you call me in the morning? This time, it's really spring, autumn, bitter, short term, the sun has risen high, and from now on, the day of the king will not be early anymore! "

An Xia'er was already sweating profusely. "That's not it. Alright, tell me, what's the matter?"

An Xia didn't know how hard Zhan Qian had brought back the drunk Pei Ou that day, so she didn't know how sad Zhan Qian was at that time …

"It's nothing!" Zhan Qian sighed. "My interview with Hua Yuan's directors at the 'Nobility Lord's Summit' has greatly increased the sales volume of the 'Star' newspaper. Now that its fame has finally started, I'll tell you the good news. It's not easy to have a relaxed weekend now. Come out, I'll treat you to morning tea?" to thank you for bringing me to the 'Summit of the Patriarchs' last time! "

"What's there to thank me for?" An Xia'er said in amusement, "Didn't you say that I'm also a shareholder in 'Star Seeker'? I'll definitely help you with anything that's within my capabilities."
