The first snow in Dong Shan city disappeared the next day, and the streets were filled with filthy mud.
"She's here."
I received a text message from Xiao Yin on my smartwatch.
"She's here, although we don't know her destination, please be prepared."
Director Jiang of the National Security Bureau was also on guard.
I received the news from various channels. It was clear that she did not hide her whereabouts. She would take her private plane and land at Dong Shan North Airport.
"My island! My island! " Ai Mi also received the news not too late, but what made her angry was that Angel Island was attacked by a tsunami.
"No wonder the previous owner was in such a hurry to get rid of it, there was an underwater volcano not far from Angel Island! The underwater volcano actually erupted and caused the sea to roar, and all the facilities on the island were destroyed! Not even a lighthouse was left! "
I was also surprised to learn of the situation. "It's that serious, did the staff on the island retreat in time?"
Ai Mi stared at the gray sky outside the window with indignant eyes, as if she was questioning God who played a prank on her.
"Hmph, those spineless staff all escaped on my private plane! They should have stayed and died with my assets! Angel Island became a deserted island after being destroyed by the tsunami! Isn't it going to be renamed Demon Island now? "
"It's good that there were no casualties." I comforted Ai Mi, "Once the underwater volcano stabilizes for a while, we can rebuild the facilities on the island."
"How can I relax on an island that is in danger of being swallowed by a tsunami at any time? No matter how much money was invested, it would all be for naught! "
Ai Mi clenched her teeth and banged on the principal's table. Because she used too much force, she covered her slightly swollen palms and tears appeared in the corners of her eyes.
"My mom gave me this private island to trick me! No, I have to take advantage of her coming over this time to get more things from her! Don't think you can get rid of me so easily! "
I paused for a moment and my expression gradually became cold.
"So Ai ShuQiao really is coming to Dong Shan city …"
"Yeah." Ai Mi opened her phone and recorded something, "It's just in time for Christmas, this time I want this, and this …"
"What is she doing in Dong Shan city?"
Without the answer from Xiao Yin and Director Jiang, would Ai Mi know?
"She said she's on vacation." Ai Mi temporarily stopped writing the Christmas gift list, "She also wants to visit us."
It was natural for a mother to visit her children, but I highly suspected that Ai ShuQiao's motive wasn't so simple.
"Why did she come to see you? Do you want to borrow your hands to kill someone again? "My emotions fluctuated violently as I sat across from Ai Mi." Why did you come to see me? He hasn't come to see me in 16 years! Don't tell me she's coming back to hold a parent-teacher conference for me!? "
The matter of poisoning her grandfather will always be a pain in Ai Mi's heart. I unintentionally opened up her scar and caused her to fall into depression.
But she pulled herself together, got up from the chair, and walked behind me. She wrapped her arms around my neck and rested her chin on my left shoulder.
"Brother, I know you're agitated, but now is not the time to have a falling out with Mom. I also don't like my mother who treats us like chess pieces, but aren't the CIA and NSA also treating us like chess pieces? I don't trust anyone right now, I only trust you. You have to live on, okay? "
It's rare for Ai Mi to show such a thoughtful and gentle side, and I felt like my heart was melting.
I gently caressed Ai Mi's small hand on my chest, "You're not that lonely, you can also trust Peng TouSi, and …"
"Peng TouSi can't be with me for the rest of my life, only brother can!" Ai Mi tightened her grip and almost suffocated me, "Promise me you'll live long! You'll only be allowed to die after I die! "
I coughed while begging: "Let, let go, or I'll be strangled to death right now!"
After this small episode, the atmosphere between us became a bit more relaxed.
"I'm going to the airport with Peng TouSi to pick up Mom." Ai Mi said, "I suggest you come with me."
Xiao Yin, Director Jiang, and even 005 all gave the same suggestion, but I was still very conflicted.
"I don't know what to say to her when I see her …"
"Brother, you don't have to say anything, Peng TouSi and I can talk to her. It's better to take the initiative to meet her at the airport than to passively meet her after she comes to Qingzi High."
"Hmph, she still wants to come to Qingzi High? Does she want to see the gymnasium she helped build and the monument that Principal He Qimei erected for her? "
"Anyway, fighting with Mom won't do any good!" Ai Mi told me, "I found out that she was in a good mood when I talked to her. It's Christmas soon, so I might be able to ask for a lot of things — — these things will all belong to us in the future! If you're willing to ask, maybe … "
She wants me to ask Ai ShuQiao for a Christmas present? Can she turn back time and give me a mother who didn't betray her marriage and love?
I snorted, "Even if I go with you guys, I won't give her any face. At most, I'll go and see what this woman who abandoned her husband looks like!"
"It's good that you're willing to go." Ai Mi let out a long sigh of relief, "I originally planned to use some 'services' to change your mind if you don't want to go no matter what!"
I couldn't help but frown, "Services? What services? "
Ai Mi walked around me like a cat, tapped her lips with her fingertips, and smiled coquettishly:
"Of course it's using my hands, mouth, or other places to make me feel good! How about this, if you're willing to act like a grandson in front of Mom today, I'll provide you with a service when I get back? "
Ai Mi looked at me with a seductive gaze.
Are you kidding me! Even if I go to the airport to pick up Ai ShuQiao, it's only to infiltrate the enemy! I'm not doing it for my sister's terrible services! Also, I'm at most Ai ShuQiao's son, why should I act like a grandson in front of her!
Just like that, I applied for a leave of absence from the homeroom teacher, but I didn't inform the class leader or the others — — even if I did inform them, they wouldn't think it was appropriate to accompany me.
Ai Mi and I sat in the RV driven by Peng TouSi and headed towards Dong Shan city's North Airport on the highway.
There were six bodyguards in the back of the RV, and the French chef was also on standby in the mobile kitchen in case Ai ShuQiao needs to eat lunch immediately after she gets off the plane.
I sat on the circular water bed in Ai Mi's bedroom and my legs kept shaking due to nervousness.
Was I nervous or was I angry? Maybe it was both. Since the water bed could easily transmit vibrations, Ai Mi, who was also sitting on the water bed, also shook up and down.
Ai Mi closed the curtains, then turned around and sat closer to me.
"Brother, what's wrong? Why is your face so red? Are you going to hit Mom when you see her? That won't work, Mom definitely brought bodyguards! Also, Peng TouSi won't let you do that! "
Peng TouSi, who believes in God, only objected to Ai ShuQiao to save her soul. After all, Ai ShuQiao saved Peng TouSi's life, so Peng TouSi wouldn't sit by and watch Ai ShuQiao get hurt.
It was very warm in the RV, so Ai Mi and I were only wearing summer clothes. Ai Mi's dolphin dress looked very casual with her socks.
"The first impression is important." Ai Mi firmly grabbed my wrist, "It doesn't matter if you want to be a spy or cooperate with me to ask for a Christmas present. In short, don't get into an argument with Mom!"
But how can 16 years of resentment be suppressed so easily? My wrist that was grabbed by Ai Mi tightly clenched into a fist. Ai Mi must have clearly felt the anger in my body.
Seeing that we were only halfway to North Airport, my attitude made Ai Mi extremely worried. She frowned for a few seconds and suddenly stood in front of me. Then she held onto the edge of the water bed and knelt down.
I was shocked and quickly reached out to help her up.
"Ai Mi, what are you doing? Don't you always say you're American? Why are you using a method that was popular in China's feudal era? No matter what, I will try my best to suppress my emotions! Your knees will hurt if you kneel here, hurry up and get up! "
"I'm not kneeling here to beg you." Ai Mi showed a somewhat willful and slightly angry expression, "I'm just giving my brother a service in advance! If you have any dissatisfaction with Mom, you can vent it on me in advance! In short, don't have a direct confrontation with Mom! You can ask me to do anything afterwards! "
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry as I picked up my sister from the ground and put her back on the bed.
"I understand that you're worried about me, but I'm not taking advantage of someone and using this to threaten your brother! I won't do anything stupid after I see Ai ShuQiao, don't worry anymore! "
"I'm still worried." Ai Mi said with a pout, "Then brother, come and pinky promise with me! Doesn't the celestial empire often use this ceremony as a promise? "
I smiled and extended my pinky towards Ai Mi, and our pinkies quickly hooked together.
"Whenever Mom makes you angry, think of me, okay?" Ai Mi said seriously.
"Okay." I nodded perfunctorily, "I'll remember my beloved sister."
"That's right." Ai Mi continued, "You have to always remember your sister's cute body. As long as you can get through a few hours with Mom, I'll let you do whatever you want to me tonight!"
Hey, I didn't pinky promise with you to make this kind of deal! A few days ago, I had to fight alone with Ai ShuQiao in order to protect the girls' pure smiles. At that time, I felt like I had become more noble, how did it return to the rhythm of siblings committing adultery in the blink of an eye!
It must be because the temperature is too high! It must be because it's too warm inside the RV!
It didn't take long before we arrived at Dongshan North Airport. Ai ShuQiao's procedures for coming to China were complete. She also applied for a flight route for her private jet through proper channels, so she wasn't afraid of anyone finding out her whereabouts.
Although the snow had melted, the weather became even colder. Ai Mi and I wore the same thick winter clothing in the cold wind and watched Ai ShuQiao's plane that had just stopped at the airport.
I was too lazy to describe the luxurious and expensive private jet. In short, after the airtight cabin door opened, the heater inside floated out. The first to walk down the gangway were four robust bodyguards in black suits. After they confirmed it was safe, a woman wearing a white fur coat appeared in our field of vision.
