She has always been enthusiastic and willing to go all out for her friends. Moreover, this time it’s Luo Xiaoqian who’s in trouble. In Xu Xia’s eyes, Luo Xiaoqian is not just a friend but also a sister, her family.
At this time, Leng Zirui should also have been here, keeping step with Leng Zimo.
However, he’s not around, so as his girlfriend, she should certainly take responsibility.
Even though Leng Zimo has mentioned that she shouldn’t worry about these matters and should just focus on her work, how could she possibly allow herself to ignore it?
"Take a break, you’ve been shooting for over two hours?" Lan Zi said with a frown, "Even if you’re not tired, everyone else is. I promised General Leng I’d take good care of you. If you get sick being the General’s Wife, that’s something I can’t afford."
She knows Xu Xia’s nature, saying this is just to get her to take a break.
Rushed from Beijing to Milan because of Luo Jun, she didn’t rest on the plane either, only slept a few hours before starting work, then hurriedly came to Rome, continuing with work... As her agent, Lan Zi also needed to look after Xu Xia’s health.
"Leng Zirui?!" Xu Xia pouted, "Don’t use him to scare me. Besides, I’m not afraid of him."
She refused to believe it, assuming Lan Zi intentionally used Leng Zirui to pressure her.
"Why would I lie to you?" Lan Zi took out her phone, entered the message box, and found a text message, "If you don’t believe me, see for yourself!"
Xu Xia took the phone with suspicion, looked at the message, and sure enough, it was from "General Leng."
"Sister Lan, while I’m away, please take good care of Xiao Xia with Xiao Gao. If she accidentally offends you, don’t hold it against that silly girl. When I return, I’ll personally apologize to you both."
Leng Zirui regards,
Xu Xia glanced at the date—it was exactly the day Leng Zirui left.
"What silly girl, that jerk talking behind my back, let’s see how I’ll deal with him!" Xu Xia pouted, looking indignant.
"When the time comes, who knows who’ll be dealing with whom?" Lan Zi said mischievously as she took back the phone, "See, the General has given orders, dare to defy them and I’ll report you."
"Afraid of you?" Xu Xia rolled her eyes, "Alright then, half an hour, we’ll continue after half an hour."
"Okay, those dark circles are showing already, have a good rest and close your eyes. I’ll call you when it’s time."
Lan Zi got out of the car, carefully closing the door for her.
Xu Xia closed her eyes, leaning back in the seat, her fingers habitually playing with the bracelet on her wrist.
"Leng Zirui, you big jerk, calling me silly. If you dare, don’t come back, or else, hmph..."
She muttered softly, yet the corners of her mouth remained upturned.
Unexpectedly, that guy even thought to send a message to Lan Zi and Xiao Gao, asking them to take good care of her.
That rascal still has a conscience!
Opening her eyes, she glanced at the dazzling sunlight outside the window, quickly took out her phone, and checked the specially subscribed United States weather report.
It’s sunny over there too, with even higher temperatures.
The TV introduced the military training, mostly outdoors, not minding the wind and rain, with live ammunition and nuclear weapons. It must be exhausting and dangerous.
Imagining Leng Zirui training heavily in the sweltering jungle, Xu Xia couldn’t help but feel a pang of heartache.
Opening the phone’s message box, she carefully started writing — Leng Zirui, today I found out you sent a message to Lan Zi. I guess you still have a conscience, when you come back, I’ll definitely accompany you well...
