However, before she finished her words, Leng Zexi couldn't help but laugh softly at her cute nervous look.
Then, he slowly lowered his head and gently kissed Xia Ruoan's rosy little face, saying in a voice full of charm, "Of course I believe you, and I also have full confidence in the relationship between us."
After saying that, Leng Zexi gently took Xia Ruoan's hand and said softly, "Let's go, it's time to pack up. I'll take you back to the old house. Mom has specially prepared your favorite delicious dishes for you."
Hearing this, Xia Ruoan nodded obediently like a docile little lamb and replied, "Okay." Then she turned and walked towards the room, preparing to change into appropriate clothes.
Leng Zexi stayed where he was, his eyes casually sweeping over the many unopened packages placed nearby.
Suddenly, a thought came to my mind - could there be another guy like Zhang Kai emerging here?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but frowned, but quickly shook his head and thought to himself: Forget it, out of sight, out of mind, so I'd better not look for trouble.
Anyway, I plan to take Xia Ruoan back to their original residence tomorrow. As for these packages, I will say hello to Ruoan later and ask someone to come over to help open and check them.
First, I have to check carefully to see if there are any love letters or anything like that, and then hand it over to Ruoan after making sure there is no problem.
As for those letters and gifts that expressed his love for Xia Ruoan, Leng Zexi chose to return them all without hesitation.
On the way to return the items, Leng Zexi explained his plan in detail to Xia Ruoan beside him.
"There are still some unopened gifts left. I will help you open them one by one later, and then organize them carefully and put them away properly." Leng Zexi looked at Xia Ruoan gently, his tone firm and caring.
He then continued, "For people like Zhang Kai who send me gifts, I will find a way to find out their contact information and then return the gifts intact."
When he said this, Leng Zexi's eyes became extremely serious, as if this matter did not allow any room for negotiation.
Hearing Leng Zexi's words, Xia Ruoan couldn't help but turn around, staring at him with a smile, and whispered teasingly: "Are you jealous?"
Facing Xia Ruoan's teasing, Leng Zexi didn't hide his inner feelings at all. He nodded frankly and replied, "Yeah, that's right, I'm jealous."
At this moment, he did not feel embarrassed to admit that he was jealous, because this jealousy came from his sincere and deep love for Xia Ruoan.
Seeing Leng Zexi's straightforward response, Xia Ruoan felt an indescribable sense of warmth and security in his heart.
She lowered her eyes slightly and said softly, "To be honest, ever since I've been with you, I often have a feeling that it's not real."
"It seems like the beauty between us is like a dream, and I am always worried that it will suddenly disappear... But now, hearing you handle these things so resolutely, I feel much more at ease."
After saying that, Xia Ruoan raised his head again, and their eyes met, filled with deep affection and attachment to each other.
Xia Ruoan's gaze fell on him gently, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, as if she was lost in memories of the past.
"I still remember the first time we met. The moment you stepped into my house, my world seemed to light up."
"You stood there, like someone who walked out of an ancient poem, 'The man on the street is as beautiful as jade, and the young man is unparalleled in the world.' This statement is true. Your appearance still stirs ripples in my heart. The beauty of that unexpected encounter is still unforgettable."
She smiled gently, a mischievous glint in her eyes. "What I never expected was that this thread of fate would quietly bind you and me together, until now, hand in hand. Back then, I secretly studied you in my heart, afraid to miss even the slightest detail."
Hearing this, Leng Zexi smiled faintly, with warmth and memories in his eyes.
"Actually, I noticed that too." He said softly, his thoughts drifting back to the scene of their first meeting. At that time, Xia Ruoan was also a rare scenery in his eyes, causing unprecedented waves in his heart.
At that moment, when I first saw you, a thought involuntarily came to my mind: You are even more captivating than what Third Brother described."
"I remember he once mentioned that even when the most popular girl in the department pursued him, he didn't waver in the slightest and rejected her affection decisively."
"Whenever others curiously asked him about it, he would just smile faintly and say that your beauty is even better, no one can compare to you. At the time, these words sounded like a fairy tale, and no one believed them."
"However, Third Brother cherishes you so much that he keeps you secret from everyone. He won't even show a single photo of you to us brothers."
“If it weren’t for that chance encounter, returning home with him on a research mission, I might never have witnessed the truth of his words.”
"At that moment, it dawned on me that Third Brother's vision is indeed unique. Your beauty is truly extraordinary and unforgettable at first sight." Leng Zexi's gaze fell gently on his beloved, full of affection and determination.
Xia Ruoan's eyes widened as he looked at Leng Zexi in disbelief, his voice tinged with surprise and a hint of joking: "At that time? Are you sure you're not kidding? I was just a naive sophomore in high school back then."
Hearing this, Leng Zexi raised a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, and a glimmer of reminiscence flashed in his eyes, as if he was carefully examining the budding emotions of the past.
"Indeed, I may have been attracted by your youthful appearance at first, which was a bit superficial. But at that time, I truly regarded you as a younger sister who needed to be cared for. I hid in my heart a desire to witness your growth, like nurturing a budding flower, waiting for time to sculpt it."
He paused, his gaze becoming firm yet gentle. "It wasn't until you were eighteen, when your third brother entrusted me to personally deliver a gift to you, that my feelings quietly changed."
"At that moment, I secretly decided that I would wait until you passed the postgraduate entrance exam and stood at a new starting point in life before I would reveal my feelings to you and officially begin my pursuit."
"What's unexpected is that you were snatched up by someone else so quickly! Just like that, we wasted three whole years for no reason! Those three beautiful years that should have been spent on our romance were snatched away by someone else."
As Leng Zexi spoke, there was still a hint of regret in his eyes.
Xia Ruoan gently held his hand back and said softly, "Don't worry too much. We will have many more three years to come."
"It's not bad now, actually. We're just getting a marriage certificate and becoming husband and wife. If you still long for that feeling of love, then we can spend the rest of our lives as if it were a romantic relationship."
Hearing this, Leng Zexi nodded repeatedly in agreement and said, "Okay, everything is up to you. In this case, we can be considered to be getting married first and then dating, and it is a legally protected marriage. We don't have to worry about the trouble of breaking up anymore."
At this moment, Leng Zexi stared at the little hand he was holding tightly in his hand, and suddenly a sense of satisfaction surged in his heart, as if he had nothing more to ask for in this life.
He secretly vowed to make up for the regrets he had left behind to Xia Ruoan bit by bit.
At this moment, Lu Qin showed amazing efficiency and successfully found the case information of that year before long.
It turns out that Zhou Mufan was in charge of following up on this case at the time, but it seemed to contain some important information that even Xia Ruoan himself did not know...
Because no harm was caused to Xia Ruoan, Zhou Mufan and those gangsters could be said to have suffered losses on both sides. Zhou Mufan directly asked a lawyer to handle it. Since it was not a serious matter, both parties signed a letter of understanding and moved on.
After reading it, Leng Zexi frowned slightly. He didn't expect that Zhang Kai was involved.
"Ruoan, regarding the time you were rescued by Zhou Mufan, was it Zhou Mufan who handled all the follow-up?" Leng Zexi looked at her and asked.
Xia Ruoan nodded, "Yes, because it didn't cause any harm to me, and later Zhou Mufan and those hooligans got into a fight. Zhou Mufan was indeed a victim because he was protecting me."
"Then he contacted his family's lawyer to handle the matter. I didn't get involved anymore. He just told me that the matter was resolved." Xia Ruoan nodded.
After that, Xia Ruoan never dared to walk around the street again. She always took the bus directly to school and bookstore.
"Okay, I understand. Can you rest here during your lunch break? I have to go out for something in the afternoon." Leng Zexi looked at Xia Ruoan and discussed.
"Or I can send you back to the Ou family." Xia Ruoan's parents and brother still live in the Ou family. Because Father Xia has not forgiven Grandpa Xia yet, they have not returned to the Xia family at all.
"No, I'm fine staying here. Is the matter urgent?" Xia Ruoan finally couldn't suppress his curiosity and asked.
Leng Zexi frowned slightly, but quickly regained his composure and replied calmly: "It's okay, it's no big deal. I can handle it myself. You just need to wait for me at home." However, he did not reveal too much to Xia Ruoan about the specific situation.
Speaking of the incident when Xia Ruoan was intercepted by gangsters, the mastermind behind it was actually Zhang Kai.
Those gangsters had always been at odds with Zhang Kai. When they happened to see Zhang Kai following Xia Ruoan that day, they became malicious and tried to capture Xia Ruoan to threaten Zhang Kai.
But who would have thought that at the critical moment Zhou Mufan happened to pass by here, saved the beauty and resolved the crisis.
Xia Ruoan's subsequent relationship with Zhou Mufan was also somewhat related to Zhang Kai. I wonder if Zhang Kai would be furious if he knew all this!
