âSomeone who works with me,â Winston replied simply.
Bai Qingqing nodded and then smiled at Lanky. Winston grabbed her hand again and stuffed it into his warm pocket.
âIâll be going home later. Iâll go back after sending the little eagles back to the villa,â Bai Qingqing said.
Winston fell silent for a while, pulling her into his embrace. His low voice sounded a little unhappy. âAlright.â
Bai Qingqing raised her head and kissed him on the chin. âIâll be coming to collect my result slip tomorrow. Iâll be able to leave after taking it. We can have a good time for the whole day.â
No matter how harsh Winstonâs features were, it couldnât hide his joy at this moment.
âI wonder how Parker is doing. Let me call him and ask.â As Bai Qingqing said this, she took out her phone and called Parker.
The call quickly got through, and Parker spoke up, âYouâre on your winter break now?â
âEn.â Bai Qingqing smiled and nodded.
âMy filming here at Hengdian will be ending soon. Iâll be back in a few days. Iâll only need to start work again after the new year, about the same as your winter break.â Parkerâs voice was jolting, and Bai Qingqing could imagine the way he jumped up and down excitedly.
âThatâs great. We can spend the new year together,â Bai Qingqing said.
âEn!â Parker replied firmly.
After hanging up, Bai Qingqing then called Curtis.
Curtis was still rushing his work day and night over at his side. All sorts of piercing noises came from his end, and his voice was like a stream of clear spring water as it entered Bai Qingqingâs ears. âYour break has started?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âEn,â Bai Qingqing replied. When talking to him, she unconsciously became a little more docile and asked in a gentle voice, âYouâre still busy?â
âIâll go back after making arrangements for the work for these few days. Iâll go back home at around midnight tonight.â
âEn. The roads are congested these few days. Be safe on the road,â Bai Qingqing said.
Curtis smiled. He didnât laugh out loud, but the air he exhaled revealed his smile.
Bai Qingqing immediately thought of how he had a strong liking for passagewaysâunderground sewage. She instantly bumped her head against Winstonâs chest. That road was likely to never be congested with cars.
As they chatted, the car had already entered Splendid Villa. Bai Qingqing hung up unwillingly, then led the little eagles into the house.
âMuir! Weâre back!â Bai Qingqing called out loudly. She greeted the two leopards in the courtyard and then ran into the living room happily.
Muir had seen them long ago from upstairs, and he jumped down from the second floor, hugging her.
When Lanky saw this scene, his heart immediately skipped a beat.
Wasnât this student Brother Tigerâs woman? How could she dare to enter another manâs embrace in front of Brother Tiger? Wouldnât Brother Tiger kill her?
No, no, no, that was impossible. That man should be her elder brother or father. He couldnât be her lover. He didnât believe that there was anyone who would dare to fight with Brother Tiger for a woman.
He was feeling shocked, but Brother Tiger threw him an unkind glance. Lanky immediately understood that he had committed one of Brother Tigerâs taboos. He was about to avert his gaze when the courtyardâs door blocked his vision.
Winston closed the door, thinking to himself that he should learn to drive too. He mustnât let outsiders see too much of their familyâs abnormalities.
Lanky was the aide he relied on the most. Unless he was left with no choice, he didnât wish to silence him.
Winston walked up to the car and said to Lanky, âThe gang needs your help. You can go back. Just call anyone who can drive here.â
Brother Tiger hated to have other people doubting him unless there was a reasonable explanation to do so. Lanky immediately said, âAlright.â
After saying that, he got out of the car and walked away.
