Love So Sweet

306 She Will be with Him

It was noon when their flight landed in S Country.

Wei Jun Hao’s friend was already waiting for them in the arrival hall. After a brief introduction, the friend drove them to the hotel.

Zhang Worldwide Group owned a hotel in S Country. The four of them checked in to the hotel and went to the rooms that their family usually used.

“Your aunt and I are going to have lunch with my friend,” Wei Jun Hao said. “Would you like to go with us?”

Zhang Li Xue glanced at Bai Qi and shook her head “No. It’s fine. Uncle, you go ahead with my aunt. We’ll go and find something to eat ourselves.”

“Well, that is good too.”

“Why are you asking them to come with us?” Zhang Yu Ying looked at her husband. “It was rare for them to come here. Of course, they will want to go out on a date.”

Wei Jun Hao coughed.

“We didn’t know when will the meeting end,” Zhang Yu Ying said. She looked at Bai Qi and spoke, “Bai Qi is familiar with S Country. I guess I don’t have to worry that you might go lost.”

.....

Zhang Li Xue looked at her aunt helplessly. “Aunt, I’m not a kindergartener. Why would I go lost?”

“That’s true.” Zhang Yu Ying laughed. She looked at Bai Qi again and spoke, “Help me to look after Li Xue, alright.”

“Aunt, don’t worry.” Bai Qi nodded. His gaze turned gentle when he looked at his girlfriend.

“Alright. You should go to your room and rest.” Zhang Yu Ying patted her niece on her shoulder. “Just call me if you need anything. Your uncle and I will be going out and we’ll probably return after dinner.” She looked at Bai Qi again and spoke, “Let’s just meet again tomorrow morning.”

“Mmm... I already set up an appointment with my friend,” Wei Jun Hao spoke. “Let’s have breakfast in the coffee house together before we go.”

Bai Qi and Zhang Li Xue naturally did not have any objection to this plan.

The four of them took the elevator and separated to get to their rooms.

As he was about to enter the room, Wei Jun Hao turned around and glanced at his niece who was staying next door. His eyes narrowed as he recalled Zhang Yu Han’s reminder to keep his eyes on them. But in the end, he did not say anything.

...

After entering her room, Zhang Li Xue looked around before slumping into the mattress.

She stared at the ceiling for while before rolling around the mattress to grab her phone. She tapped her finger on the phone and called her mother to let her know that she had arrived safely.

The mother and daughter chatted for a while.

As a mother, Li Qin Yao was worried about her daughter even though she was now an adult. Throughout their conversation, Li Qin Yao did not forget to remind her daughter to be careful.

When the call ended, Zhang Li Xue checked on the notification and saw Bai Qi’s message.

Her lips curled into a smile.

Instead of replying, Zhang Li Xue decided to call him straight away. The call was connected in a few seconds.

“Are you busy?”

Zhang Li Xue lay on the mattress and hugged the pillow. “Not really. I was talking to my mom earlier to let her know that we have arrived. Mmm... I talked to Xi Xi as well. Just now, Xi Xi was learning how to bake some cookies with my mom. Xi Xi said she’s going to bake me some cookies later.”

Bai Qi has been texting his little sister for a while and knew her activity. But listening to his girlfriend talking about the same thing gave him a different feeling.

Anyway, he just liked listening to his girlfriend’s voice. Hearing the laziness in her voice made him smile.

“Are you tired?” Bai Qi asked as she had finished giving him an update. “Should we go out for lunch?”

It was indeed a little tiring after sitting on the flight for a few hours but as she thought that this was her first trip with Bai Qi, Zhang Li Xue thought that it was better to spend as much time with her boyfriend.

“Let’s go out and eat,” Zhang Li Xue said.

“Then, I’ll come to pick you up in ten minutes, is that alright?”

After agreeing, Zhang Li Xue hung up the phone. Then, she ran over to the restroom to fix her makeup. She checked herself in the mirror again and was finally satisfied with how she looked like.

Just in time, her doorbell rang.

Zhang Li Xue looked through the peeping hole and finally removed the safety chain when she saw Bai Qi.

A bright smile curled on her lips as she saw her boyfriend.

Zhang Li Xue tightened her grip on her purse.

In the past, they often arrange to meet somewhere else before they go on a date. It turned out that the feeling of having her boyfriend picking her up in front of her door was very exciting.

“Should we go now?” Zhang Li Xue asked.

Bai Qi stretched his hand and let the girl hold his arms.

After locking the door, the two of them left the hotel together.

A taxi was already waiting for them outside.

Bai Qi helped her into the car before giving the driver the address. As the car drove away, Zhang Li Xue leaned over to Bai Qi and asked, “Where are you taking me?”

“Well, there is a restaurant that I frequently visited in the past. The food is quite good,” Bai Qi said. “I think, it should suit your taste.”

Zhang Li Xue looked out the window and saw many tall buildings around.

When she turned to Bai Qi again, she could not help but notice the look in his eyes.

Tomorrow morning, they were going to meet her uncle’s friend and listen to what was going on with his father’s case.

Zhang Li Xue knew that Bai Qi has been looking forward to this meeting. At the same time, he was worried to hear what those people were going to tell him.

Her heart ached as she thought of how he had suffered after his parents had passed away. She reached to take his hand and gave it a gentle squeeze as if to tell him that she will be with him no matter what.
