C44 Hurry Recruitment to Beijing (1/2)
Right now, Pang Xia's side was in chaos, and Lee Jingxing's side was not in a good situation.
It was still early in the morning when the old man from the imperial city called. The old man from the courtyard got really angry and told Lee Jingxing to go back immediately since he had already booked a plane ticket. If he didn't come back, the old man would personally go and meet the ”that” from the legends.
And this ”that person” was naturally referring to Pang Xia!
Immediately after, Liao Fann lowered his head and handed over two tickets. Lee Jingxing squinted his eyes, and went all the way out of the Xing Zhou realm, and sat in the car until he arrived at the airport, not saying a single word to Liao Fann.
In the plane's first class, Lee Jingxing had a cold face, as if someone owed him 5 million. This person had always been the type to laugh in front of others, although it didn't make people feel that it was easy to be close to him, it had never been like this, with a face like frost, and no strangers allowed to enter.
Seated on the other side, Liao Fann tried his best to shrink his burly body towards the corner, trying his best to disappear from Lee Jingxing's sight. It would be best if he could keep going back to the courtyard without thinking of someone like him.
As soon as the plane took off, Lee Jingxing turned around and looked at Liao Fann with his thin lips: ”I do not wish for the people around me to have any ill intentions. It was indeed the old man who sent you to me at that time, but I have also told you that since you chose to follow me, there can be no one else in your heart.”
Liao Fann lowered his head, it looked like Lee Jingxing was truly angry this time. Actually, he knew that was not kind to him, but no matter what, he had already done it, and since he knew he made a mistake, a man should admit it.
”I'm sorry, sir.” If it wasn't on the plane, Liao Fann really wanted to kneel down on one knee.
Lee Jingxing looked at him in silence for a moment. In the end, he merely waved his hand and sighed: ”Alright.
One whip and one candy, the Old Ancestor had left behind a good method that would not weaken even after a long time. Furthermore, Lee Jingxing had never planned to do anything to Liao Fann, there was no wall that would not let the wind leak out, so even if Liao Fann did not say anything, he would not be able to hide it for long.
Since Lee Jingxing had said this, Liao Fann felt even more ashamed to meet him. However, he was a man, after all, he wasn't so hypocritical, so he made a decision in his heart, and his gaze became more loyal than before.
”Tell me, how much did they know?”
Liao Fann licked his dry lips. ”I … I didn't say much, but I did talk about the Mr Pang. ”
”Where's the child?” Lee Jingxing squinted his eyes.
Liao Fann gulped down a mouthful of saliva, ”No … Not a word. ”
Lee Jingxing reckoned that Liao Fann did not mention Qingqing's leisurely matter, if not, it would not be as simple as just a phone call to recall his away. The old man would probably just directly come over to pick his up, and at that time, it would be very troublesome, the matter between him and Pang Xia was already planned in the very beginning, but now that he had angered the little crab, he reckoned that he would definitely fall out with it in the future. At that time, forget about being together with, maybe Pang Xia would even take the child and fly far away.
”When you get back, you're not allowed to say anything, understand?”
”...” ”Yes!”
Liao Fann thought, how could he dare say anything else? The old man's anger would probably burn half of the imperial city, and anything he said would be wrong! Furthermore, since he had already decided to go with Lee Jingxing, even if the old man were to hold his head up against the spear, he wouldn't reveal any more about Lee Jingxing's private life.
When the plane arrived in Beijing, there was already a car waiting outside the airport. Seeing Lee Jingxing coming out, the butler Uncle Zhang immediately opened the door for him.
”Little mister, you'd better lower yourself as much as possible when you go back. Don't say anything back, the old master is stubborn and soft-hearted. If you really are fine, the old man won't do anything to you.”
When Zhu Ci married Lee Daoguo, she had one by his side. All these years, Uncle Zhang had worked hard in their family, but for some reasons, she had never married. As for seeing the children of who were born, she treated them as her own children, and as soon as she got on the car, she quickly reminded Lee Jingxing to wake them up.
Lee Jingxing smiled as he looked at Uncle Zhang, and said somewhat helplessly: ”Uncle Zhang, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it this time.”
The Uncle Zhang was shocked, his old eyes revealed shock as if there was something else. He looked at Lee Jingxing and asked, ”What? ”Little mister, could it be that you …”
The person behind Uncle Zhang did not say anything, so Lee Jingxing obviously knew what he wanted to say. He sighed and lightly nodded his head.
At this moment, Lee Jingxing suddenly thought of something. He had left in a hurry this morning, and even now, he had not called Pang Xia, but that person saw that he was not there, so what kind of expression would he have? Lee Jingxing thought in a funny manner, only then did he remember to turn off his phone before boarding the plane. He hurriedly turned it on and wanted to give Pang Xia a call.
