Lu Tingxiao's expression softened when he saw the girl trying to act cute. "Okay."
He glanced at the half-opened cup of coffee on the bedside table and said disapprovingly, "You haven't fully recovered yet. Don't stay up late. Go to bed early."
"Ah? But I'm so excited after the drama just now that I can't fall asleep! "Ning Xi held her chin and mumbled worriedly.
Then, she suddenly thought of something and her eyes lit up. "Oh my! It's so dark and windy in the middle of the night. Why don't we do something meaningful? "
Lu Tingxiao's gaze darkened and his voice was a little hoarse. "Do what?"
After a while …
"Ahhhhh … No …"
Ning Xi's screams came from the bedroom …
Lu Tingxiao stared expressionlessly at the screams and the deliberately pretentious background music on the computer screen, his face dark.
Her so-called … meaningful thing was watching a horror film?
Ning Xi curled up in the quilt with only her little head sticking out. Her face was pale and she screamed from time to time, "Ahhhh … in the cabinet … there's a ghost in the cabinet … don't open it …"
Lu Tingxiao looked a little speechless. "Why do you still watch it if you're so scared?"
"This is exciting! I dabble in horror films and I'm only short of a horror film! Because … because I'm scared of ghosts … "Ning Xi said bitterly.
Lu Tingxiao raised his eyebrows, obviously surprised that she had something she was afraid of.
"That's why I don't dare to watch it when I'm alone. Since you're here today, I must seize this great opportunity!" Ning Xi said excitedly.
Lu Tingxiao stroked her head. "I'll accompany you in the future."
Ning Xi nodded quickly. She looked at Lu Tingxiao, a little startled.
She had thought that after being single for so long, she would be uncomfortable with having someone by her side all of a sudden …
But now, she was curled up in the quilt watching a horror film while Lu Tingxiao sat quietly by her side, which made her feel that the two of them were quite good …
Perhaps it was because the Great Demon King's aura was too strong, causing the horror movie to be extremely low. So much so that she actually fell asleep halfway through watching the movie …
Seeing that the girl was sleeping soundly, Lu Tingxiao turned off the movie and gently tucked her in.
Just as he got up, his phone suddenly vibrated.
Caller ID: Mo Lingtian.
Lu Tingxiao's gentle gaze suddenly turned cold. He picked up his phone and walked to the balcony to answer the call.
"Hey."
"Hello … Lu Tingxiao …" On the other end of the phone, Mo Lingtian's voice was weak as if he had been tortured.
"How did it go?" Lu Tingxiao asked.
"I've already spent a lot of effort on that brat Tang Lang's matter. But … that man … I'm sorry … I was one step behind, and everything was for naught! Originally, I was just a step away from finding his identity, but I don't know how the people on the other side received the news in advance, but all the clues were cut off! I'm really a silkworm that has reached the end of its life, and my tears have dried up even though the candle has turned to ashes! Stop torturing me! I won't do it anymore! "
"The land in the east of the city."
"I'll continue to investigate! Even if I have to exhaust the last candle flame of my life, I will definitely help you pull out that brat's tail! "Mo Lingtian changed his words very quickly.
"Okay."
Just as Lu Tingxiao was about to hang up the phone, Mo Lingtian suddenly called out to him. "Wait … although I didn't find anything, I've received some other news."
"What is it?"
"That Satan is probably desperate because of you this time. He's already burning his boats to clear his name. Who knows, he might change his identity and return to the country soon. Be careful …"
