She goes crazy, he'll cover for her; the darling of the group is someone no one dares to mess w

Han Xi didn't say anything, but gestured for her to get in the car first. After she was seated, he went around to the other side to get in.

As soon as the car door closed, he immediately turned to the side and gently kissed her lips, one delicate touch after another.

Fang Li was suddenly kissed, and she felt a little nervous and confused.

"What's wrong with you...?"

Their lips parted, and both of them felt a slight tremor in their breaths.

Han Xi gently pressed his forehead against hers, his fingers caressing her soft temples, his voice low and deep, "I can't bear to part with you."

Fang Li blinked slightly: "Aren't I right here?"

"it's me."

He sighed with some melancholy, "The Taihu Bay project is about to start, and I have to attend the launch ceremony tomorrow, so I have to leave soon."

"So sudden?"

"It's not sudden. The itinerary was already set last week. It was me, but I didn't want to tell you."

Watching the man hold her hand tightly and gently stroke it, Fang Li paused, then turned her head and rested her head on his shoulder: "It's okay, Taihu Bay isn't far, it only takes a little over an hour by plane."

Han Xi kissed her forehead, still feeling somewhat depressed.

How many days will the trip last?

"Tentatively set for one week, depending on the situation."

The car fell silent for a moment.

They remained silent.

When Fang Li first heard Han Xi say that he was going on a business trip, she didn't feel much emotional, just a little surprised, perhaps because she was affected by his emotions.

Fang Li lowered her eyes and rested her head on his shoulder. She seemed to hear his deep heartbeat, and for a moment she felt a little lost and reluctant to part with him.

The longer the silence inside the car lasts, the stronger this feeling becomes.

"Have you packed everything? Should I go home now and help you...?"

"No need, Jiangbei has already taken care of it."

"Oh."

There was another moment of silence.

After a while, Han Xi turned to the side and gently cupped her face in his large hand. "Take care of yourself. I'll be back as soon as possible."

"Ah."

"The debts you owe me will be settled then." His dark eyes stared at her, a hint of alluring light flickering in them.

Perhaps Fang Li had also been thinking about this matter, because she immediately understood the implication in his words, and her ears turned red instantly.

She touched it, slowly lowered her eyelashes, bit her lip, and nodded slightly, "Okay, I'll wait for you to come back."

Her soft voice carried a captivating allure; a flicker of surprise crossed Han Xi's eyes, and the next moment he pulled her tightly into his arms, his Adam's apple bobbing.

"wait for me."

After lunch, Han Xi left.

Together with Jiangbei, we set off for Beicheng.

Fang Li had planned to see him off, but after the meal, Han Xi took her directly back to Huanyu International. Although he didn't say anything, Fang Li inexplicably understood his intention.

He was afraid that once he got to the airport, he would be even more reluctant to part ways.

The man's reluctance was like a warm wad of cotton, completely enveloping Fang Li's anxious heart.

Thinking about it, it's only been a little over two months since they reunited. In those short two months, he so forcefully and gradually infiltrated her life.

There was a time when she thought it might be difficult for her to wholeheartedly like someone again, but now...

She was insecure before, which is why she kept finding excuses to avoid and dodge the man's advances.

Now, thinking of the words the man said when he left, and how he held her and kissed her inch by inch, Fang Li sat alone in her office, blushing and chuckling to herself.

A week... Should she prepare properly?

Around four o'clock, Han Xi sent a message saying that he had landed.

Looking at that short line of words, Fang Li's already reluctant mood became even more depressed. Only now did she understand what it meant for longing to surge like a tidal wave.

She had initially mocked Han Xi for being clingy, but now she herself had become depressed because of that man's departure.

This feeling of depression lingered even after I got home from get off work.

As soon as she entered the door, Aunt Rong noticed that something was wrong with Fang Li.

As soon as she entered the room, she silently walked to the sofa and sat down. Aunt Rong then brought over a small plate of washed strawberries.

"Madam, dinner is ready. Would you like to eat now or...?"

Where is Yang Miao?

"Oh, Miss Biao hasn't finished school yet, but the driver has already gone to pick her up, she should be back soon."

Fang Li took the strawberry and smiled, "Let's wait for Yang Miao to come back and do it together."

Before the words were finished, the sound of a car engine came from outside the door.

As the car door closed, Yang Miao's voice drifted into the living room.

"Aunt Rong, Aunt Rong? Did Uncle and Aunt come home today?"

"You and your husband didn't come home yesterday, and Miss Biao barely ate any dinner, complaining all night." Aunt Rong smiled helplessly, "She insisted that you were neglecting her and had secretly gone off to have some alone time."

Fang Li couldn't help but chuckle.

Yang Miao is indeed not quite what she initially thought.

After the last incident, Fang Li noticed a significant change in Yang Miao's attitude towards her.

After being discharged from the hospital and moving into a villa on the hillside, he would come to see her whenever he had time at home.

At first, I just brought my study materials to ask her questions. I was a little embarrassed and cautious. After a few times, I found that Fang Li didn't seem to care about what happened last time. She was also very patient in explaining the problems. Gradually, I became bolder.

Not only would he occasionally joke with Fang Li, but he would also catch her after school every day and tell her about what happened at her school.

Yang Miao, having just changed her shoes, turned into the hallway and saw Fang Li sitting on the sofa. Her eyes lit up immediately. "Auntie? You're back!"

"After school."

Fang Li smiled and waved to her. Yang Miao jogged over, casually threw her schoolbag on the sofa, and landed on the sofa next to Fang Li, then affectionately hooked her arm around hers.

Did you and my uncle go out for some alone time yesterday?

Fang Li chuckled: "No, I was out socializing late, so I slept at Guanlanting."

Yang Miao pouted: "I thought they were annoyed by me being a third wheel and weren't planning to come back today."

"How could that be? Where can we go if you're here?"

Yang Miao finally smiled with satisfaction, looking around and asking, "Where's my uncle?"

Fang Li sighed slightly, "He's not back, he's on a business trip."

"You mean... my uncle isn't here?!" Yang Miao's eyes lit up instantly.

Fang Li asked in surprise, "Why are you so happy when your uncle isn't home?"

Yang Miao suddenly burst into unfathomable laughter.

Aunt Rong, who was standing nearby, was startled by her sudden reaction.

Before the two could even ask her what was going on, Yang Miao grabbed Fang Li and ran upstairs without saying a word.

"What are you doing?"

Regardless of whether Fang Li could keep up, she pulled Fang Li straight towards her room, saying, "Of course, we're going to a great place I've been wanting to visit for ages while my uncle's not around!"

After Yang Miao ransacked the room, Fang Li was dragged downstairs by her again twenty minutes later.

Aunt Rong was already setting out dinner, and as soon as she saw the two of them come downstairs, she immediately came to greet them, "Dinner is ready, what brings you here...?"

"Don't eat."

"Ah, I don't want to eat this...."

After the two changed their shoes, Yang Miao happily hugged Aunt Rong and said, "You guys eat dinner, my aunt and I will go out to eat."

"Can......"

"Don't worry, we'll be back soon!"

Aunt Rong was still standing in the entryway, while the two of them had already left.

Watching the car, which hadn't even had time to park in the garage, start up again and drive away from the villa, Aunt Rong stood at the door and sighed helplessly.
