âWellâ¦Iâm studying it a little!â Annie said.
Ning Xi smiled. âYouâre being too humble, Annie. Lu Tingxiao, while she looks cute, sheâs actually very talented in healing!â
Annie was embarrassed. âIâm not as good as Bro Xi saysâ¦â
Lu Tingxiao pulled opened a drawer and took out a yellowish book tied in string. âI received an ancient book about medical knowledge a few days ago. If you donât mind, please take it as a gift to commemorate our meeting for the first time. Thank you for taking care of Xiao Xi when she was overseas.â
âItâs alright, I didnât really do anything. I was the one being taken care of instead! And thisâ¦this is too valuable!â Annie instantly knew that the book was extremely precious and being an original, it must be priceless!
Ning Xi put the book into Annieâs hands. âJust take it, we donât have any use for it anyway and itâs not true that you didnât do anything. There were a few times that you took care of me thoroughly when I was injured!â
âAlrightâ¦Iâll take it, thank you.â
Annie kept quiet. She felt that there was no more reason for her to stay, she took a deep breath and smiled, âBro Xi, Iâm really happy meeting you today, Iâll be leaving now, itâs already late.â
âSo soonâ¦â
âIâll still be around here for some time, thereâd still be chances to meet, as long as Bro Xi doesnât find that Iâm too annoyingâ¦â
â¦
Ning Xi and Lu Tingxiao walked her to the first floor. Lu Tingxiao waited in the house while Ning Xi accompanied her to the car. âBe careful on the road.â
âYou know that I always drive like a snail, so I donât go that fast anyway!â Annie smiled.
The night was quiet and no one was around.
Annie held her fists tight, loosened them and then tightened them again. She then looked up and said in a trembling voice, âBro Xi, are you really not coming back?â
Ning Xi sighed and gave her a hug. âAnnie, everyone has their own lives. I have mine and you have yours. Youâll be fine on your own, you donât have to miss me. Iâll be fine.â
Annie sobbed, âI admit that I was really worried before I came butâ¦Little Treasureâs so cute and Lu Tingxiaoâs really nice as wellâ¦Bro Xi, I wish you happiness! I think saying anything else would be futile.â
âThank you, I will!â
After saying goodbye to Ning Xi, Annie waved farewell and started her car engine.
The car slowly left the apartment. From the rearview mirror, she saw the man put a thick coat on the girl as the girl smiled at him. They chatted and held each otherâs hand as they went back upâ¦
Bro Xi was doing well. Really well. She had someone she loved, her dream, her careerâ¦She was doing much better than before.
Why should she make her return?
â¦
As they went back upstairs, Ning Xi hugged Lu Tingxiao and thanked him, âThank you, Boss!â
âWhatâs that for?â Lu Tingxiao leaned his back on the door.
Ning Xi looked up at him. âThank you for treating my friend so well. You knowâ¦sheâs from that side, donât you?â
âAll I know is that sheâs someone you care about,â Lu Tingxiao simply replied.
