Xilin looked at their affectionate look, and a trace of sadness flashed across her eyes.
But she soon calmed down and showed a bright smile. "People say that those who survive a great disaster are bound to have good fortune later on. Tonight is worth celebrating. Let's have a good celebration. I'll treat you."
"No, I'll treat you tonight. If you hadn't found Li Mingrui, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been saved. This meal must be on me to thank my life-saving benefactor."
Diba said with an indisputable tone.
"I'm your life-saving benefactor. You want to dismiss me with a meal? You wish."
Xilin joked.
"Then how do you want me to thank you? Why don't you devote yourself to me? "
Diba joked with a smile.
"Come on, I'm not interested in you."
As Xilin said, she secretly glanced at Ding Ning and winked at him.
Ding Ning's heart skipped a beat. "This girl is too bold, isn't she?"
"Then who are you interested in? Why don't I lend my Ding Ning to you? "
Xilin was used to making unrestrained jokes, so Diba didn't think much and said with a smile.
"That's okay. Your boyfriend can barely be regarded as a handsome guy. You know, I've always been very interested in handsome guys."
Xilin said ambiguously.
Ding Ning's face was full of black lines, thinking that he had to spank this girl's butt later. What did she mean by "barely be regarded as a handsome guy"? "Isn't my handsome so obvious?"
Diba generously waved his hand. "Okay, take it and use it."
"This is what you said. I won't stand on ceremony. Don't regret it."
Xilin said with a hidden meaning.
"What's there to regret? We're best friends. What's mine is yours."
Diba still thought she was joking and said very generously.
"Ahem, ahem, hurry up and eat. I'm starving."
Diba's mother couldn't bear it anymore. "What are you talking about? Little Ding is still next to you. How can you make such a joke? How embarrassing it is. Young people nowadays have no sense of propriety."
"Oh, uncle and auntie, get in the car. Let's go to eat."
Xilin stuck out her tongue and greeted them attentively.
In order to carry more people, she had specially made a trip home and replaced her Ferrari with a Land Rover, which could easily carry so many people.
Celine knelt on the passenger seat and seemed to have endless things to say to Diba. Ding Ning could only be the driver.
Although he was not familiar with the roads in Wushi, he easily found the pedestrian street that Xilin mentioned with the GPS.
After tasting the Qing Jiang delicacies, he leisurely returned to Diba's house.
Celine didn't mention anything about going home either. Instead, she clamored about having a candlelit talk with Diba.
Ding Ning knew that this girl was jealous and deliberately made trouble, so he offered to spend the night on the sofa in the living room.
Although Father Di and Mother Di were somewhat reluctant, Xilin was a great hero today after all, so they couldn't say anything. They took out the bedding and laid it on the sofa.
Tuk tuk tuk!
There was a knock on the door. Chen Dafa and Fang Mengting were really responsible. They actually came to visit and make a statement.
Diba's family were all good people. They were very cooperative with the police and told the story in detail.
After Chen Dafa finished the statement, he politely said sorry for disturbing them and left with Fang Mengting. It seemed that they would have to work overtime tonight again.
In the dead of night, the steady sound of Father Di and Mother Di's sleeping came from the master bedroom. Diba and Celine's whispers also gradually subsided.
Ding Ning tossed and turned on the sofa, but he couldn't fall asleep. When he thought that the two great beauties in the room were his women, but he could only sleep on the sofa, he felt extremely unbalanced.
Sigh, girlfriends are the most annoying sometimes.
Ding Ning secretly cursed, but his expression suddenly changed. Oh no, there were too many things to do. He forgot that Yuan Shanshan was still unconscious in the water space.
As far as he knew, Yuan Shanshan didn't have a boyfriend and never spent time outside.
Night, she didn't go back so late. Her family must be very worried, right?
Ring ring ring!
The urgent sound of the phone rang, which was extremely ear-piercing in this quiet night.
"Hello!"
Xilin picked up the phone in a daze and answered the call. She said sleepily.
"Celine, is Shanshan with you?"
Shanshan's mother's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Auntie, no, I didn't see her today. What's wrong? Isn't she home yet? Could it be that she's working overtime at the company and forgot to tell you? "
Celine sat up with a start and woke Diba up. She said sleepily, "Who is it? Why are you calling me so late?"
"Shanshan's mother said that Shanshan hasn't come home yet. She called to ask if I'm with her."
Celine covered the phone and said softly.
Diba's sleepiness suddenly disappeared. He sat up and said worriedly, "Did something happen to Shanshan?"
"Shanshan hasn't come home yet, and I can't get through to her. I called her company and said that she asked for leave today, so she didn't go to work. Did something happen?"
Shanshan's mother was so anxious that she was about to cry.
"Auntie, don't worry. I think she might have something to do outside. Her phone is out of battery again. I'll go to the place she often goes to look for her."
Celine was no longer sleepy. She got up and began to put on her clothes.
"Then I'll have to trouble you. Call me as soon as you find her."
Shanshan's mother hung up the phone with a sob.
"I'll go with you."
Diba was so sleepy that he couldn't even open his eyes. However, it was related to Shanshan, so he could only force himself to get up.
"You've been tired for the whole day. Don't go. I'll go by myself."
Celine still felt sorry for Diba and asked her to rest at home.
"No, how can I sleep if I don't find Shanshan?"
Diba refused resolutely. Celine couldn't change her mind, so she could only let her yawn and get up.
Ding Ning heard everything clearly in the living room. His face was full of a helpless and bitter smile. How was this matter going to end?
"Ding Ning, Ding Ning, are you asleep?"
Diba was afraid of disturbing his parents, so he didn't turn on the lights. He held hands with Celine and came to the living room in the dark. He shouted softly in Ding Ning's ear.
Ding Ning closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep. He even snorted softly.
"Forget it, don't wake him. He's been tossing and turning all day. He's tired. Let him sleep."
Celine said softly, but there was a slight blush on her cheeks.
Diba thought she was referring to the running back and forth between Ninghai and Wu City. He stuck out his tongue and said, "You're right. He's been tossing and turning all day. It seems that he's exhausted. Let him sleep."
Ding Ning laughed in his heart. He had indeed been tossing and turning all day, but it wasn't tossing and turning all day. Instead, it was tossing and turning on Celine, this annoying little devil.
The two women quietly opened the door and closed it gently. The room returned to silence again.
The sound of a car engine came from outside. Soon, the car went away in the night.
Ding Ning suddenly opened his eyes and quietly got up. He disguised himself on the sofa and quietly went through the wall.
When he first came to Wu City, he had left a Divine Awareness imprint on Diba. But later, he felt that the crisis had been resolved, so he erased the Divine Awareness imprint.
As a result, he didn't expect Diba to be kidnapped. If Celine hadn't remembered the matter of the air-raid shelter, Diba would probably be in danger this time.
Therefore, after rescuing Diba, he left a Divine Awareness imprint on her again. As long as it didn't go beyond a certain range, he could easily sense Diba's location.
Ding Ning flapped his wings and quickly chased after them using the direction of the Divine Awareness imprint.
Soon, the Land Rover appeared in his field of vision. After he quickly caught up, he quietly landed on the roof of the car and listened to the conversation between the two women in stealth mode.
"It's so late. Where can Shanshan go?"
Diba said worriedly.
"She used to like to go to the Decadent Age for a drink or two when she was in a bad mood.
But she has never returned home that late. She can only go there to try her luck. "
Celine said helplessly. In fact, she didn't think that Shanshan would still be there so late. But now there was no other way. Sima could only treat it as a last resort and went to take a look.
"It's already three o 'clock in the morning. What bar is still open?"
Diba said with some confusion.
"The Decadent Age doesn't open in the morning. It opens at four o 'clock in the afternoon and closes at six o' clock in the morning. Night owls in Wu City like to go there at night."
Celine explained.
"I seem to remember that the country has a rule that bars can't open past two o 'clock in the morning?"
Diba asked with some uncertainty.
"Rules are dead, but people are alive. The boss of the Decadent Age seems to have a strong background. He's been open for almost two years, but I've never heard of the police investigating him."
Celine curled her lips and said disapprovingly.
"He's really a privileged person."
Diba muttered speechlessly.
"That's right. You can make money with privileges. The business hours of the Decadent Age are different from other bars. Night owls have nowhere to go at night and like to go there. Business is booming."
Celine said with some envy.
"You should open a bar too. In the future, I can have a place to spend time when I come back."
Diba joked.
"I'm willing, but it doesn't matter if I don't have a background. Unless, your husband is willing to help me greet him."
Xilin said with a half-truth.
"Him? What's the use of greeting him? "
Diba asked with some confusion.
"Are you stupid? Didn't you see that even Deputy Director Liu is polite to him? According to the news I received, Deputy Director Liu will soon become a permanent member. If Ding Ning is willing to greet him, he will be able to handle everything with his support. "
Celine said exasperatedly.
Diba shook his head repeatedly. "Forget it. Don't bother about owing him a favor. Besides, it's not so easy to open a nightclub. Both the legal and illegal sides must cover it. Otherwise, there will be a lot of trouble in the future."
Ding Ning listened and nodded secretly. Indeed, it was not a big deal for him to greet Celine, but there would definitely be a lot of trouble in the future.
Entertainment places like nightclubs had always been the favorite place for gangsters to gather. It could be regarded as a gray area. There were drug addicts, karaoke fans, and people who fought against counterfeits after drinking too much. It would be troublesome to get involved with any of them.
Xilin shrugged and said nonchalantly, "I'm just saying."
"Do you want to do business?"
Diba felt a little embarrassed and asked.
"Yes!"
Celine sighed and her eyes were a little deep. "I don't want to rely on Anival anymore. I want to be financially independent."
"Ah, what's wrong? Did you quarrel with Anival again? "
Diba was taken aback and asked with concern.
"No, I'm already numb. What's there to quarrel about?"
Celine said tiredly.
"It's not that I want to criticize you, but Anival, where can you find a good man? You have to know how to cherish him. Don't throw a tantrum so easily."
Diba lectured.
"Alas! You won't understand even if I tell you. Every family has its own problems. Forget it. Let's not talk about him. It's annoying to talk about him. "
Celine shook her head in distress and changed the topic.
Ding Ning sighed in his heart. It seemed that even if they were best friends, they would not tell each other everything. At least, Xilin would definitely not tell the secret that Anival liked men. Perhaps he was the only one who knew about it.
This made him feel complicated and indescribable. If it weren't for his appearance, Celine might still be in a drunken stupor with Anival.
But now that she had that relationship with him, it seemed that she did not intend to put up with it anymore. Her desire to be financially independent was a clear signal.
