A glint flashed in Lu Fenglin's dark eyes. My dear elder brother, since you're making such a big fuss, don't blame me for being ruthless.
At this moment, Lu Chuanbai had safely sent Xu Qingqing back to her room. Looking at her cute and tipsy appearance with her eyes closed on the bed, he couldn't help but shake his head. When she was sober on normal days, she always went head - to - head with him. It was rare for her to let down her guard in this state.
Xu Qingqing was mumbling something. Lu Chuanbai didn't listen carefully. Since he had kindly sent her back to the room, he would surely take good care of her. He went to the bathroom to get some hot water, then came back to wipe her body and face. After that, he patiently took off her shoes. After arranging all these, he turned off the light and left with peace of mind.
On the other side, at Jiang University,
Wang Pan quickly completed the leave - application procedures. She simply went back to the dormitory to pack her luggage and then left the school. She knew that the impact of her recent affairs was quite bad, and her teachers and classmates had some opinions about her. She had nothing to say but felt extremely depressed.
She stood at the school gate, looking at the busy street. Suddenly, a sense of desolation welled up in her. She didn't know where to go. Anyway, she couldn't go home. She had worked so hard to get out of that rural area and would never go back even if it meant death.
A lot had happened in these few days, and she knew it was all because of Xu Qingqing. She thought that she would take revenge on her when she had the chance! Xu Qingqing, just wait for me!
On the other side, Xu Qingqing woke up with a splitting headache early in the morning. She pounded her head and regretted getting so excited and drinking so much the night before.
When she was about to wash up and get dressed, she found that her clothes were neatly arranged and her shoes were properly placed on the ground. She never had the habit of blacking out after drinking, so she knew it was Lu Chuanbai who had taken care of her. This made her feel a bit more favorable towards him.
At this time, Song Yi's voice came from outside the door. "Sister Xu, wake up. Brother Chuanbai made some hangover soup. He asked me to bring you a bowl. Remember to come and drink it later."
After getting a reply, he put the hangover soup on the table and left with peace of mind.
After drinking the hangover soup, for some reason, maybe because it was made by Lu Chuanbai, she felt that her headache had alleviated a lot and she was more energetic. Maybe it was just a psychological effect. She didn't want to admit that Lu Chuanbai had such a great influence, so she comforted herself.
It was a new day. After the hearty chat and a good meal last night, everyone was more motivated than ever. There were smiles on everyone's faces.
Seeing Xu Qingqing coming over, Zuo Yinyin was the first to greet her with a big smile. "Good morning, senior sister!"
Xu Qingqing replied with a smile as well.
Because of Lu Chuanbai's order, now Xu Qingqing had Wang Lei, Zhao Xin and the others secretly protecting her, so those who had ill intentions towards her didn't dare to take any big actions.
The cultural relic restoration work was progressing steadily, and days passed by.
Fifteen days later, the cultural relic restoration work was completed.
Everyone packed their luggage and prepared to go back. After getting along for half a month, everyone had a great time together. They had all come together out of their love for cultural relics and had studied together. Everyone was reluctant to leave. So Professor Zhou proposed to hold a farewell banquet in Qingchuan City.
Everyone was overjoyed. Since the cultural relic restoration work was over, Lu Chuanbai naturally wouldn't stay here to personally oversee the progress of the resort. So he came to find Xu Qingqing to help her pack up if she needed any assistance.
When he heard that they were going to hold a farewell banquet, he offered to be the host and specially invited them to Lan Yi Pavilion.
Everyone just smiled silently when they heard this. "Since Chuanbai is so generous, thanks to Qingqing's good face, we'll not decline," Wen Shouheng joked.
Knowing what Lu Chuanbai had in mind, before leaving, he patted Lu Chuanbai on the shoulder. When Xu Qingqing wasn't looking, he whispered in his ear, "Boy, seize the opportunity. Qingqing is a great girl. You'll be lucky to have her!"
Everyone saw this scene and tried hard not to laugh, enjoying the fun.
On the contrary, Lu Chuanbai didn't show any smile and remained cold. Finally, he just nodded in response.
When everyone was getting on the bus with their luggage, Zhao Luo took a deep look at Zuo Yinyin.
Seeing the scene between Senior Sister Xu and Brother Chuanbai just now, he was extremely envious. He didn't know when he could develop a relationship with Yinyin.
He let out a soft sigh and got into the car.
On the other side, Xu Yiyi and Xu An'an had known since last night that Xu Qingqing was coming back. The two kids got up early in the morning. After packing up and having breakfast, they just sat on the sofa stupidly waiting for their mother to come back.
Father Xu and Mother Xu looked at the scene of the two kids sitting side by side and smiled at each other.
"Brother, what time will Mommy come back?" Xu An'an poked her brother with her little hand and asked in a sweet voice.
Xu Yiyi didn't know either. He had missed his mommy so much last night that he couldn't help but send her a text message. He thought that his mommy was so busy with work that she wouldn't see the message. But unexpectedly, his mommy replied and told him that she would be back in Qingchuan City the next day. In his excitement, he forgot the exact time.
Xu Yiyi scratched his head awkwardly. In order to maintain his reliable big - brother image, he said vaguely, "Mommy will be back soon. Don't be impatient, sister."
The two of them just sat there from morning till evening. Except for meal times, they didn't move a single step. Finally, at around six or seven in the evening, Lu Chuanbai safely sent Xu Qingqing back to the Xu family.
The two of them looked a bit tired from the journey. Xu Qingqing walked into the house first, and Lu Chuanbai carried her suitcase in.
"Mommy!" The first one to see Xu Qingqing was little Xu An'an. Seeing her mommy whom she hadn't seen for more than half a month, she bounced over and jumped into her mother's arms, mumbling, "Mommy, I missed you so much, wuwu."
Xu Yiyi rolled his eyes at his sister's "weak - willed" behavior. She had just said that she didn't miss Mommy that much. What a little talker.
Seeing Uncle Lu standing behind Mommy, Xu Yiyi also ran over and asked Lu Chuanbai to carry him. Lu Chuanbai picked him up and asked with a smile, "Do you miss Uncle Lu?"
Unexpectedly, the two little kids replied in unison, "Yes! We miss you so much!"
"Just as much as we miss Mommy!" Little Xu An'an even gestured with her little hands and said sweetly.
It was a long - lost feeling, as both Lu Chuanbai and Xu Qingqing thought.
Lu Chuanbai felt that with this son, daughter and Xu Qingqing, what more could he ask for in life... He looked at the mother and daughter with a smile.
Xu Qingqing pinched Xu An'an's nose and said lovingly, "Only An'an has such a sweet mouth."
The four of them laughed and played together. The scene was extremely harmonious.
Hearing the children's voices, Father Xu and Mother Xu knew that their daughter was back. They supported each other and walked downstairs.
Seeing Lu Chuanbai there, their smiles grew even wider. Mother Xu patted Father Xu's hand and whispered, "What a lovely family, old man."
