Annie coughed slightly, then said with an awkward, âBossâ¦heâ¦several days ago, in the dead of the night, he sat on the deckâ¦â
âHe sat on the deck to do what? Can you just say it in one go? Youâre making me anxious!â Ning Xi was about to break down.
âHe sat on the deck for the whole night and wrote a love letter!â Annie blurted out. She did not even need to imagine that on the other end of the phone, the girlâs face must be blushing red right at that momentâ¦
Ning Xi was annoyed, âI thought you were going to tell me something really outrageous, but thatâs it? Why did you have to stutter forever?â
Annie mumbled, âBro Xi, big bossâs love letter was written for you, wasnât it?â
âMmmâ¦â Now it was Ning Xiâs turn to hesitate.
Annie carefully chose her words as she found it difficult to go on, âBig bossâs writing skills are reallyâ¦in need of some working onâ¦the deck was filled with crumpled up paper from a whole night of writing. Some of the other bros saw that and could not help but to help suggest to him what to write. They all ended up getting beaten up by him. The boss insisted on writing it himselfâ¦ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
He had actually spent a whole night writing those few sentencesâ¦
Ning Xi buried her face in her hands, âHaha, I hope that he will use this perseverance to work on other aspectsâ¦â Such as not messing with her anymoreâ¦
Ning Xi paused, then continued to ask, âApart from this, were there any other unusual habits?â
âNothing, Bro Xi!â Annie answered confidently, then deliberated for a moment and added on, âActually, come to think of our recent movements, it has been a little unusual!â
âWhatâs unusual about it?â Ning Xi immediately asked.
âFor example, our movements in China seems to be increasingâ¦also, Big Bro wanted to return to the country several days ago, but because a very important cargo suddenly had issues, he has been spending the past few days dealing with it!â
âIs that so?â Ning Xi frowned. Increasing activity within China? I wonder if this is related to Lu Tingxiaoâ¦
Ning Xi then nodded, âOkay, letâs just leave it at that first. If there are any more oddities, remember to report to me immediately!â
Annie sounded unwilling, âUhh, Bro Xi, this wouldnât be too good right? I donât want to be a mole!â
Ning Xiâs lips curved into a smile as she reminded, âAnnie please, you only care about your big boss now, so Bro Xi is no more, huh? Who saved you once upon a time?â
Annie became anxious, âBro Xi, of course I didnât forget. It was you who saved me!â
Ning Xi nodded, satisfied, and she said, âGood! So, youâre not a mole! Youâre an undercover spy! Understand?â
Annie replied, âOhâ¦understoodâ¦â
âMmm, good, okay, Iâm hanging up now!â
âHold on, Bro Xiâ¦â
âWhat is it?â
âBro Xi, is there really no way for you to ever return again?â Annie said as she took on a melancholic tone.
Ning Xi listened to the sound of the ocean from the other end and slowly closed her eyes. She mumbled, âWhen someone has been in the dark for too long, itâs inevitable that one will be drawn towards the light. The days in my past have indeed been very carefree, yet my heart was like a plant with no rootsâ¦I couldnât find meaning for my existenceâ¦even though the days now are hard and restrictive, Iâm enjoying this challenge, enjoying this feeling of having a goalâ¦do you understand?â
âBro Xi, are you serious? Or are you just pretending to be cool?â the other end of the phone replied with Annieâs uncertain tone.
Ning Xi didnât say anything.
Fine, it was her fault, she should not have messed with the naive little girl. Now she has really dug herself into a pitâ¦
