Oh, Uncle Zhong, if you go, can you bring Xiao Mian with you?"

"What do you mean?"

Zhong Nanyi suddenly stopped.

"That's right, Xiao Mian also wants to meet Aunt Windsor, whom she has been thinking about so much."

"You mean, Windsor contacted Xiao Mian?"

For some reason, Zhong Nanyi's expression was a little stiff.

"Ah."

Xu Qiubai shared the contents of the email between the two.

In an instant, Zhong Nanyi's face turned pale.

"What's wrong, Uncle Zhong?"

"No...nothing...I'm just afraid that Xiaomian will blame me."

He regained his composure.

"She won't blame you. I think you should first think about how to communicate with Aunt Ge in the future."

Xu Qiubai did not forget his main purpose.

"Um..."

He didn't seem to take it to heart, and was lost in deep thought and reminiscence.

…………

In the next few days, Xu Qiubai only helped Zhong Nanyi mail a postcard, and apart from complaining, he did not interfere with his choice.

This old Zhong Deng, who won't live long, is still obsessed with his old postcard.

Instead, Zhong Xiaomian seemed to be stuck in this matter.

According to Zhang Jun's description, she was immersed in a sad atmosphere all day long and thought that Xu Qiubai had done something to her again.

Ge Zhi was actually the easiest to deal with. She had already vaguely guessed that there was a woman in Zhong Nanyi's life who was pulling at his presence. Xu Qiubai only needed to reveal some information to her every once in a while.

At dinner time on December 12th, Zhong Xiaomian suddenly came to the flower shop alone.

Tang Lu and Xu Qiubai, who were eating, showed incredible expressions at the same time.

"Mianmian, why are you..."

Tang Lu put down her chopsticks and stood up to greet him.

Xu Qiubai frowned slightly. He knew Zhong Xiaomian well enough to know that she was actually very reluctant to actively disturb Xu Qiubai's life.

What happened?

The one who appears to be the most unhappy is Liu Xinyi, the simple little girl who never hides her emotions.

She lowered her head, bit her lower lip, and said nothing.

Maybe she couldn't say she hated him, but she didn't want to see Zhong Xiaomian.

"Qiu Bai, I want to go to Iceland. I must go."

This is the most decisive sentence Zhong Xiaomian has ever said.

Xu Qiubai put down his bowl and chopsticks and stood up. He wanted to touch Xiao Liu's head but she dodged him.

Oh...I'm angry again.

My younger sister is the hardest to please.

But he couldn't dwell on that now.

Letting Tang Lu continue eating, Xu Qiubai took Zhong Xiaomian to the front hall of the flower shop.

"Why are you saying this suddenly?"

"Dad, he's taking so long to make a decision! Aunt Windsor can't wait any longer!"

Zhong Xiaomian was very excited.

This situation was, of course, what Xu Qiubai had anticipated when he asked the question.

Zhong Nanyi attaches great importance to his scientific research projects.

"Have you been talking a lot with Windsor lately?"

"Ah."

Zhong Xiaomian didn't explain further.

After reading the content of the last email, Xu Qiubai knew that Windsor really liked Zhong Xiaomian, the daughter of her ex-lover. She had never had a child in her life, and perhaps in the last moments of her life, she had already regarded Zhong Xiaomian as her own daughter.

Zhong Xiaomian is kind-hearted and has a strong ability to empathize, so it's natural that he can't let her go.

"Your father agrees?"

"No, he told me not to go."

"I don't think it's appropriate either."

"Why do you have to do this too?!"

Zhong Xiaomian became excited again.

"Xiao Mian, calm down."

Xu Qiubai held her shoulders.

"..."

“I have sorted out the visa issue and I will only be away for three days.

I'm going to see her on Christmas Day.

I'm not a kid anymore, I can go alone...

I want to tell her in person that she is not wrong, God will not blame her, and she must leave this world with a smile on her face!!

She obviously...helped so many people..."

Perhaps Xu Qiubai's lack of support for her made her even more hurt, and her tears finally flowed.

Xu Qiubai waited for a while, waiting for her emotions to calm down a little.

"What did Hana Chika say?"

Xu Qiubai asked in a low voice.

"She's been busy lately... She's not my dominant one."

It was not until he heard this that Xu Qiubai truly realized how great an impact the news about Windsor had on Zhong Xiaomian.

Even Hana Chih-Huo can be put aside for now.

She is one of the people Zhong Xiaomian admires and cares about the most.

Xu Qiubai silently calculated the time.

Visas and passports are not a big problem and can be obtained quickly with the help of connections.

But it was Christmas.

Xu Qiubai had just finished chatting with Xiao Liu about how to celebrate Christmas.

It's not just Xiao Liu, he has many other people to accompany.

In the past half month, Yingqi has been leaving early and returning late.

No one knew what she was busy with.

She just said she would tell it all when the time came, just like in the past.

Xu Qiubai respected her choice.

And Nana...it's not a good thing to keep her in the institute all the time.

Recently, someone on the forum mentioned that the swimming club’s account has not updated her related news for a long time.

She was never seen in school.

I wonder if something happened to her.

However, Xu Qiubai was absolutely worried about letting Zhong Xiaomian go to a foreign country alone.

"Xiao Mian."

"..."

"I go with you."

"I will also advise Uncle Zhong to put his trip to Iceland on his schedule as soon as possible."

"Why...why are you doing this..."

Zhong Xiaomian muttered to herself.

"In fact, I know that you are very timid and... afraid of loneliness.

After all, she was a fragile little girl who would secretly cry when she was alone at her grandparents’ house.”

After saying that, Xu Qiubai looked up at the ceiling.

"Xinyi, I'm sorry, I have to break my promise again."

Not far behind Xu Qiubai, Liu Xinyi turned around silently and went upstairs.

Chapter 269 Fatal Ringing

Xu Qiubai was quite busy in the next few days.

He actually had to do ideological work for three people.

The angry Xiao Liu and Xin had already flown abroad, needless to say Zhong Xiaomian.

Even Zhong Nanyi, an old uncle, had to talk to him over and over again.
