Chapter 13 Gifts for the Qixi Festival
Lin Xi had never seen Qin Yu like this before.

The two were childhood sweethearts, and in her memory, the grandfather of the Qin family had made many achievements, and Qin Yu's father started a business in his early years and once monopolized the market.Not to mention Qin Yu's own achievements, which have already surpassed her peers by a lot.It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the proud son of heaven.

From childhood to adulthood, it was only for others to beg Qin Yu, and there was no time for Qin Yu to beg for others.

But his current tone was almost pleading, while Lin Xi was shocked, her heart was filled with sourness.

There is indeed a big rift between her and Qin Yu, and she doesn't want to see Qin Yu like this.As proud as he is, he never bowed his head when he was punished by the Qin family's grandfather to kneel and the cane was drawn on his back.

"Qin—" Lin Xi's lips twitched a few times, her throat seemed to be choked, and she seemed to have returned to seven years ago. When facing him, she couldn't speak a complete sentence, so she could only stumble together, "You, You get up and talk first."

But the man was unmoved, she put her hands on his chest, unable to push it at all.Through the thin layer of fabric of the shirt, she could even feel his strong heartbeat.

He stared at her silently, from looking down just now to keeping eye level with her.

Lin Xi suddenly had a voice in her heart, beating repeatedly, Qin Yu really cared about her going or staying.

Thinking of this, she moved her eyes in a panic, held his fingertips and curled up, "I'm going back to my uncle, I'm in a hurry."

"So how many years is this time?"

He didn't believe her words.

"..." Lin Xi twitched the corners of her mouth, this time her voice was more helpless: "Uncle recently had a minor operation, I'll go over to see him. By the way, bring back the things I had before."

"Really, that's all."

Lin Xi disdains to lie about this kind of matter, it is totally unnecessary.

She comes and goes freely, no one can trap her.If she really didn't plan to come back, she wouldn't hide it.

"Where is the third brother, are you going on a business trip?" She said in a playful tone, trying to break the oppressive atmosphere: "Could it be that they came here to 'catch' me?"

Qin Yu avoided answering her question, his black eyes narrowed, as if he was confirming something.After staring into her eyes for a long time, she let go of her shoulders and straightened up slightly: "When will you be back?"

As usual, Lin Xi at this time must have no good temper and would not answer obediently.But the scene just now lingered in his mind.

"decide as things go."

She didn't buy a return ticket because she wasn't sure about the exact return time.

"If it's fast, it should be three or four days?"

"Since the time is not long, why do you have to bring so much luggage?"

On the way here, Qin Yu saw the surveillance video sent by Cheng Si.In the video, Lin Xi is carrying a 26-inch suitcase that she used when returning to China. It doesn't look like she will be back in three or four days.

Does this still need to be reported?When she looked at him, she hesitated to speak, and she could see that she really wanted to scold him.

"I really don't need to bring any personal items. My uncle asked me to bring some things that are not easy to buy over there, and I will take them along the way."

"What else do you want to ask, third brother?"

Noticing the impatience in her eyebrows, Qin Yu changed the subject in a timely manner, "Do you have to resign?"

This time, Lin Xi did not refute, but nodded generously, "According to the contract, I will pay liquidated damages on time. Don't worry about this, third brother."

If she talked about it, she had to make it clear to him.

"Although it may not be very good to say so, I still hope that third brother will know. If I knew that Feiyun was related to you from the beginning, I would definitely not have anything to do with Feiyun."

As soon as she finished speaking, the face of the man across from him changed slightly, his eyes were about to rain.

Lin Xi caught the emotion in his eyes, she sighed, put down the pillow on her lap, and stood up.

She is only 1.7 meters tall, and she has a pair of [-]cm high heels on her feet. Standing in front of him is not afraid at all, and she has more confidence than when she is sitting.

"I don't want to live under your wing."

"There is no need to persuade me to resign. When I come back, I will formally go through the resignation procedures. I have my own plans for the follow-up. The third brother should not interfere."

-

Qin Yu is a smart person, no matter how subtle she says, he can still hear the hidden meaning in her words.

Lin Xi was the first passenger to board the plane, in the first-class cabin by the window.After adjusting the seat, she put on the blindfold and earplugs and began to rest.

I haven't had a good rest for two days, and the drowsiness hit me soon.In the haze, she could feel someone sitting beside her.

Lin Xi subconsciously turned her head to the outside of the window, and soon fell asleep completely.

During the ten-hour flight from Beijing to New York, Lin Xi woke up from hunger.

Taking off the earplugs and eye mask on both sides, she straightened up and was about to call the flight attendant, but she inadvertently caught a glimpse of the mobile phone on the small table next door from the corner of her eye.

The mobile phone is not very special, the eye-catching is the small pendant hanging down from one side.

Not so familiar...

Lin Xi remembered very clearly that it was the Qixi Festival at that time, and there was a light rain in Linshi, so she didn't bring an umbrella.

The other students held an umbrella in two or three and walked out at a leisurely pace.And she is being isolated by her classmates because of illness.Fortunately, the rain is not heavy, as long as you run to the school gate.

Because she knew that Qin Yu would definitely be there waiting for her.

At this moment, a force suddenly came from behind, pulling her back from the rain.Turning around in panic, she found that Qin Yu had appeared behind her at some point, holding a black umbrella with a silver handle in her hand.

"I knew you didn't bring an umbrella, so I came in to pick you up. I searched upstairs and didn't see you. Did you come down from the other side?"

After saying that, he naturally took her backpack and coat, held up the umbrella with one hand, "Come here."

She obediently stood under the umbrella, very close to him.

On the way, he said: "Next time this happens, you don't have to go anywhere. Just stand where you are, and I will come to you."

That day, he sent her to grandma's house as usual.Under the eaves, she took the key and did not open the door for a long time. The hand hidden in the pocket was clenched repeatedly, and the palm was hurt by the pendant.

Turning around, I found that he was still standing in front of the car with an umbrella.She took a deep breath.

"Qin Yu."

With a very soft sound, all her strength was exhausted, and she was easily buried under the rain.

Just when she was hesitating whether to go there, the man flickered and walked towards her holding an umbrella.

"This, you, do you need it?"

With the palm facing up, the indentation on the fingertips is still there when you release your fingers.

This is the crystal she specially selected at the counter a few days ago, and it took two days to get it back and make it right.

Feeling flustered by his deep eyes, she hurriedly found an excuse: "It's done by hand, in handicraft class, if you don't need it, I..."

Without giving her a chance to continue, he held her finger and rubbed it gently, trying to smooth out the indentation, and said to her: "If this is a gift for the Qixi Festival, then I need it."

"!"
