Spy Wars: Playboy? I'm the best agent!

As Chen Shen spoke, he gently patted Lin Yue's hand, which was tightly holding the cup, trying to give her some warmth and strength, and continued to comfort her.

"Don't worry, we will all do everything we can to protect Li Xiaonan and will never let her suffer even the slightest harm."

After hearing Chen Shen's firm and powerful words, Lin Yue felt a little more at ease, but the worry still hung over her face like a dark cloud.

"Will everything really be alright? I still can't help but feel scared."

Chen Shen leaned forward slightly, looked into her eyes with an extremely firm gaze, and said solemnly.

"Believe me, Lin Yue. No matter what happens, we have ways to deal with it, and everything will slowly get better."

Lin Yue looked at Chen Shen and finally couldn't help but ask the question she had always wanted to ask.

"Chen Shen, tell me, where is Li Xiaonan now?"

When Chen Shen heard this, he was a little hesitant about whether to tell Lin Yue about Li Xiaonan. He knew that Lin Yue was Li Xiaonan's best friend, but due to the mission, Li Xiaonan could not have such a friend around him, so she had to give up and cut off contact with Lin Yue.

"Li Xiaonan is now in a very safe place, not in Shanghai, a place shrouded in smoke and filled with dangers."

After hearing this, Lin Yue knew that Chen Shen didn't want to tell her the truth. She didn't ask any further questions. After chatting for a few more words, she got up and left.

After Lin Yue left the cafe, she walked slowly on the way home like a fallen leaf drifting in the wind.

She held the candied haws tightly in her hand, and her thoughts, like the crystal clear sugar coating on the candied haws, drifted back to the distant past.

At that time, her mood was as if shrouded in gloom, low and depressed.

Li Xiaonan noticed her mood and without saying anything, he pulled her to the familiar stall and bought two strings of candied haws without hesitation.

Li Xiaonan blinked his bright eyes and said with a smile.

"Tanghulu is sweet on the outside and sour on the inside, like sweet first and bitter later. I don't like this feeling. I always fantasize about having a Tanghulu that is sugary inside and sour on the outside, so it would be sour first and sweet later."

Lin Yue couldn't help but roll his eyes at her and said it unhappily.

"How can there be such a candied haws as you said? You are so picky about what you eat."

The two of them played and laughed all the way, and unknowingly walked to the door of Lin Yue's house.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the door of his house, Li Xiaonan suddenly turned around and ran out like a frightened little rabbit.

Lin Yue was shocked, and countless thoughts flashed through her mind in an instant. She thought she had lost something extremely important, so she hurriedly followed her out in two steps.

After going out, I saw Li Xiaonan standing in front of another stall not far away, buying hawthorns and candy, and muttering to himself.

"I'm going to make you a candied haws like the one I mentioned. You're sure to like it."

Lin Yue stood there, looking at her serious and focused look, and felt a warm current in his heart, which was particularly warm and beautiful.

When Li Xiaonan came back happily, he not only had fresh hawthorns and crystal sugar in his hands, but also a bag of tender pork ribs and juicy vegetables.

She said sweetly with a huge smile on her face.

"Your stove is incredibly clean. I can tell you don't cook often. Come, let me show you my cooking skills today."

Lin Yue followed Li Xiaonan into the kitchen with a smile, watching her skillfully pick up the vegetables, wash and cut them neatly, busy like a happy little bee, enjoying herself very much.

"Xiaonan, I didn't expect you to have such good cooking skills."

Lin Yue praised sincerely from the side.

"Of course, just wait patiently to taste my delicious food."

Li Xiaonan answered confidently without even turning his head.

After a while, bursts of mouth-watering aroma wafted out of the small kitchen.

The dishes carefully prepared by Li Xiaonan were served on the table one by one. They were so delicious and attractive that people couldn't help but whet their appetite.

"Try the ribs I made and see if they suit your taste."

Li Xiaonan happily picked up a piece of tempting-looking pork ribs and put it into Lin Yue's bowl.

Lin Yue took a light bite, gave a thumbs up, and her eyes were full of surprise.

"Delicious, little boy, you are amazing. Your cooking skills are comparable to those of a master chef."

The two of them ate and talked, and their cheerful laughter was like sweet silver bells, echoing in the house for a long time.

It was an extremely warm and beautiful time, deeply engraved in Lin Yue's memory.

At this moment, Lin Yue, who was walking on the way home, unconsciously showed a gentle smile on her face.

Those happy days with Li Xiaonan are the most precious warmth and beauty in her life.

Passing by the familiar streets and seeing the corners where we used to play together, memories come flooding back like a surging tide, wave after wave.

"Xiaonan, I wonder how you are doing now in the safe place that Chen Shen mentioned."

Lin Yue whispered softly, her voice full of concern and longing.

At this time, Li Xiaonan was at the base holding a bag of hawthorns sent by his fellow villagers, wondering what to do if someone in the base couldn't eat sour food.

At this time, she remembered the candied haws she had made for Lin Yue before, and hurried to the kitchen to find a bag of candy.

The hawthorns are divided into two types, one for making the candied haws she mentioned before, and the other for making candied haws with boiled sugar water, so that it will not be sour.

After a while, the candied haws were ready. Xiao Liu came over and looked at the candied haws and praised them highly.

"I didn't expect our little boy to have such a skill, it's really good!"

The women who were helping in the kitchen also joined in.

"Yes, yes, Xiaonan is really a good kid. When they said there was a girl coming from Shanghai, I thought she was spoiled and hard to take care of. But now I see that she knows everything and we don't need to take care of her at all. What a good girl."

Although the boy had not been there long, he could already understand the local dialect of his fellow villagers and started laughing.

At this time, some children who had attended the school in the base area also came back. They looked at the candied haws and their mouths were watering. They asked their mothers.

"Mom, can I have that candied haws?"

His mother looked at his useless look, slapped him, and then asked the boy if she could let the child eat now.

Li Xiaonan quickly waved his hand.

"Of course you can. Come on, take a few more and give them to the kids outside. But it's almost time for dinner, so don't eat too much."

After hearing this, the child took the candied haws and went to find his friends.
