Chapter 182: Li Nian killed someone
Time flashed, and it was four o"clock on Tuesday afternoon.
Other than the weekend nights, they had to eat at the restaurant to celebrate Guo Meixia"s birthday. The rest of the time they spend at home.
In the past few days in Chengdu, Chu Tian and Bai Xiaochun also visited many scenic spots. Originally, Guo Meixia wanted Chu Tian and Bai Xiaochun to stay for a few more days, but after all, the two of them still had cla.s.ses.
In front of the airport, Guo Meixia held Bai Xiaochun"s hand and said, "Actually, I"ve always been worried about you. You"re a student in a foreign country, and you don"t know about the world. Now that you"re with Chu Tian, I"m at ease. However, you should be obedient. Don"t play with me."
"Hey, Auntie."
Meixia continued, "Don"t spoil Xiaochun too much. If she makes a fool of herself, you shouldn"t be so polite. Sometimes, she needs to get out of hand."
"Mom!" Bai Xiaochun held onto Guo Meixia"s hand and shook. "I"m your daughter."
Guo Meixia smiled and said, "Mom knows that, so that"s why I know about your skin. If you"re messing around, I"ll let Chu Tian hit you."
"Auntie, please don"t worry," Chu Tian rea.s.sured with a smile. "Xiao Bai is very well-behaved. She never causes any trouble."
Guo Meixia nodded and added, "And Xiao, don"t rely on Chu Tian"s money. If you ever need extra funds for your expenses, just let Mom know, and I"ll transfer it to you."
"Oh, Auntie," Chu Tian quickly interjected, "Please don"t say that. You"ve already helped me raise Xiao Bai for eighteen years. I can"t thank you. It"s my turn to take over now."
"What about breakfast?" Guo Meixia asked cheerfully. "I"m still single, so I"ll handle it."
"It"s all taken care of," Chu Tian smiled and said, "Don"t worry, I won"t be able to run away from her."
Guo Meixia chuckled, "You"re quite confident, young man. Are you planning to devour my girl just like that?"
"We must eat," Chu Tian responded firmly. "No one can take her away from me. She"s my soulmate in this lifetime."
"Giggle, Giggle…"
Guo Meixia replied, "That"s alright. If you truly desire my girl so much, I can"t say no. But you must promise to treat her well."
"Auntie, please don"t worry," Chu Tian responded earnestly. "I will make sure Xiao Bai is the happiest woman in the world."
"Of course, Auntie believes in you. Your intentions are good, and I can see that Xiao Bai is truly happy with you," Guo Meixia said. Then she took out a red envelope from her pocket and handed it to Chu Tian.
Chu Tian was stunned and quickly said, "Aunty, this is…"
Without letting Chu Tian decline, Guo Meixia interjected, "Listen to Auntie. I know you don"t lack money, but that"s not what Auntie means. This is a meeting gift, and you should accept it. It"s our custom."
Oh, I understand," Chu Tian replied. "Alright, Auntie, I"ll accept it then."
"Good, keep it safe," Guo Meixia said, looking at Bai Xiaochun. She smiled and continued, "When you"re with Chu Tian, be obedient. Don"t throw tantrums. If you miss your mother, come back and visit. It"s only a two and a half-hour flight."
"Got it, Mom," Bai Xiaochun sweetly smiled and embraced Guo Meixia. "Mom, I love you."
"I know. Mom loves you too. Come on, and the plane will be departing soon. You two should go inside."
Bai Xiaochun released Guo Meixia with a smile, then clung onto Chu Tian"s arm and said, "Mom, let"s go. Next time we have the opportunity, I"ll bring Uncle to visit you."
Guo Meixia chuckled, "Alright, alright, hurry up. Don"t miss the plane."
"Auntie, we"re leaving now," Chu Tian said. "You should head back as well."
"Alright," Guo Meixia replied. "Auntie will wait for you to enter before leaving. Go inside now."
"Mom, I love you. I"m leaving with my husband. Bye."
"You d.a.m.ned girl, go in."
Outside Haicheng Airport, Guo Meixia watched with a smile as Bai Xiaochun clung to Chu Tian"s arm. She stayed until they disappeared, wearing a contented expression.
……
Six forty in the afternoon!
At the exit of Haicheng Airport, Bai Xiaochun walked out with a joyful expression, holding onto Chu Tian"s arm.
"Sweetheart," Chu Tian said with a smile, "Give Mom a call and let her know we"ve arrived safely and that we"re home."
"Hmm," Bai Xiaochun replied.
Bai Xiaochun took out her phone, and as she began to make the call, a series of missed call notifications and messages buzzed in.
Bai Xiaochun chuckled, "Hubby, it"s been just a few days, and Sisi is already missing you so much. Look, there are quite a few missed calls. It seems like she"s eager to catch up with you tonight."
It"s true!
It wasn"t just Li Sisi, but also Xia Mo"s missed call.
Chu Tian took out his phone with a smile. While turning on the phone, he said, "You should call first."
After turning on his phone, it buzzed, indicating several missed calls on Chu Tian"s end as well.
It had only been a few days since they last met. Did Li Sisi think of him like that?
Thinking of this, Chu Tian smiled and called Li Sisi.
The call was answered promptly. Chu Tian smiled and said, "Sisi, did you miss me?"
Li Sisi"s voice sounded choked up as she replied, "Oh… Chu Tian, you need to come quickly. Something… something happened, oh…"
Hearing Li Sisi"s emotional voice, Chu Tian was taken aback. He furrowed his brow and asked, "Sis, are you joking? Are you pretending to cry?"
Li Sisi sobbed, "Oh… Nian did it. She… she"s been taken captive, oh…"
What?
Did Li Nian kill someone?
Chu Tian"s frown deepened as he said, "Sis, please don"t cry. Xiao Bai and I just got off the plane, and we"ll find you right away. Where are you?"
"I… I… I"m at your place, oh…"
"Alright, we"ll head home immediately."
After hanging up the phone, Chu Tian took a moment to regain his humor. Bai Xiaochun had also finished her call and asked, "Huh? Honey, what"s wrong?"
Chu Tian took a deep breath and said, "Quickly, go home. Something happened to Sister Nian."
"Ah?" Bai Xiaochun was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "Nian, what"s wrong with Sister Nian? "
"Sister Nian killed someone." Chu Tian said, "Let"s go, baby. Let"s go back first."
After saying that, Chu Tian pulled Bai Xiaochun into a taxi and left.
