Chapter 50 We Are All in the Novel

Xiaoxi looked at Liang with her big, confused eyes, but she was just confused and did not harbor any hostility.

The little girl couldn't sense the kindness of this adult for the time being, but she also knew that she couldn't show hostility to others casually. Her ignorant and pitiful appearance was her protective color.

The way she looks always arouses people's desire to protect her.

As expected, Yao Anxin couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Come here and let me hug you."

Xiaoxi looked at Lin Guzhi, and when she saw Lin Guzhi nodded, she went to Yao Anxin and asked Yao Anxin to hug her.

Holding the skinny little girl in his arms, Yao Anxin was full of love and care: "I thought you were only three years old, but I didn't expect you to be this big."

She helped Lin Guzhi explain to Liang Ting, "Guzhi and Xiaoxi had some bad experiences before. Xiaoxi is insecure now and can't leave him. Let her get used to it slowly before sending her to kindergarten."

"That's it."

Liang Ting nodded and didn't ask any more questions. She extended her hand to Lin Guzhi and said with a smile, "Okay, since our boss and An Xin have recommended you, I will trust you. Go back and prepare, take care of your personal affairs, and you can come to work at any time.

"Although we don't have strict management here, you must be on duty during working hours, so that if there is any problem, it can be handled in time. So I'll give you some time to deal with your personal matters. Once you officially start working, you can't take leave casually."

Lin Guzhi shook hands with Liang Ting and said, "How much time can Manager Liang give me at most?"

Liang Ting said, "It's up to you to arrange it. I'm not in a hurry for now. The anniversary of the Golden Leaf Building is next month, so it will be a bit busy next month. You have to at least make sure you can make it next month."

Lin Guzhi nodded and said, "Okay, thank you Manager Liang."

After dinner, Lin Guzhi and Xiaoxi left. Yao Anxin wanted to see them off, but was rejected by Lin Guzhi.

Lin Guzhi said that they could just go back by themselves, and it would be a good opportunity for them to get familiar with the commute.

So when the two, one big and one small, left, Liang Ting and Yao Anxin continued to sit in the tea restaurant.

The two women looked outside through the floor-to-ceiling windows at Lin Guzhi and Xiaoxi who walked to the elevator and took the elevator down. The topic of discussion inevitably fell on the two of them.

"Do you know what happened to these two people?"

Liang Ting waited until Lin Guzhi and Xiaoxi disappeared from her sight before she started asking.

Yao Anxin said, "I'm not sure either. But when I first met them, they looked... well... I don't know how to put it, but... miserable. They were in rags, like people fleeing famine in a movie. As for Xiaoxi, it made me feel sorry for her..."

She told Liang Ting what happened when she first met Lin Guzhi and Xiaoxi.

Liang Ting thought for a moment and said, "So, this Lin Guzhi is quite capable?"

Yao Anxin smiled and said, "More than that, you haven't seen his ability yet. A three-meter-long light-box billboard on the street, the kind supported by an iron frame, fell from the top of his head, and Gu Zhi was able to hold it up with one hand."

Liang Ting was a little unconvinced: "You talk like a martial arts master. How can there be such a thing in the world?"

Yao An thought: "I didn't believe it before. But I saw it with my own eyes that day. How could I lie to you?"

Liang Ting said, "No." She knew that Yao Anxin was not the kind of person who would talk nonsense.

Yao An thought: "So, Gu Zhi is really a very capable young man. With him here to help you, you can rest assured that there will be absolutely no trouble for you."

Liang Ting smiled speechlessly and said, "This isn't some messy nightclub. Do I need someone to look after it?"

Yao Anxin also laughed: "It's just an analogy."

"But it's not bad to have someone more powerful to keep an eye on things. At least it gives people peace of mind."

Liang Ting glanced at the elevator entrance again and said, "An Xin, what do you think is the origin of this young man? He is so mysterious, yet he knows you and can find my boss. He is also a martial arts master. Why do I feel like we have strayed into some weird novel plot?"

Yao Anxin also looked towards the stairs, thinking back to the mystery and extraordinaryness of Lin Guzhi and Xiaoxi, and murmured, "Who knows? Anyway, it's good, right? If this were a novel, we would be on the same side as the protagonist and would not suffer any loss."

Liang Ting laughed: "You never know. What if this young man grows up to be a super villain in the future?"

Yao An thought to himself, "Wake up, wake up, you're almost 40, stop dreaming about writing novels." "Haha!"

……

Lin Guzhi took Xiaoxi out of the Jinye Building.

The evening breeze was cool, and he looked up to see a full moon hanging high in the night sky.

This way, I still have half a month to go back to my hometown. It's just right.

"Are you full?"

Lin Guzhi asked Xiaoxi.

"Well, I'm full."

Xiaoxi nodded and said that she was still thinking about Xia Qing, and asked, "Xiaolin, can you bring some food to Sister Xia Qing?"

Lin Guzhi said: "Didn't Sister Xia Qing say she didn't want to eat?"

Xiaoxi said: "I think she wants to eat."

This little girl could actually tell that Xia Qing was being arrogant.

"Okay, let's buy her some food and bring it back."

Lin Guzhi said, holding Xiaoxi's hand and walking along the roadside. He bought porridge and vegetarian buns for Xia Qing next to an electric car shop that had closed. That shop was a bun shop with many customers, so the taste should be good.

After spending ten days together, Lin Guzhi had figured out Xia Qing's eating habits. Xia Qing had greasy grilled skewers for lunch, so she must want to eat something lighter at night, so porridge and vegetarian buns were just right.

After buying delicious food and coming out of the store, Lin Guzhi glanced at the electric car shop and said, "Xiao Xi, how about we go back to our hometown and buy an electric car when we come back? It will be convenient for commuting."

Xiaoxi glanced at the electric bicycles passing by on both sides of the road and asked, "Is that it?"

Lin Guzhi replied: "Yes, that's it."

"Ah."

Xiaoxi nodded vigorously. She saw the electric bikes coming and going, some with children standing on the front pedals, and some with children sitting on the back seats, and she felt a little yearning.

After returning home, Lin Guzhi took the key to open the door and heard hurried footsteps inside, followed by a "bang".

Wow, Xia Qing ran from the living room to the bedroom at a very fast speed, like teleportation.

After opening the door and entering the living room, Xia Qing's bedroom door was already closed. However, she forgot to turn off the light in the living room.

Lin Guzhi put the food on the coffee table, knocked on Xia Qing's bedroom door, and said, "Come out for dinner."

Xia Qing's angry voice rang out from inside: "I told you not to bother with me!"

This woman has quite a long temper.

Lin Guzhi said: "It's not that I want to control you, it was Xiaoxi who asked me to buy it for you."

Xia Qing's bedroom fell silent.

Lin Guzhi added: "You forgot to turn off the light."

"..."

"Click——"

The bedroom door opened, and Xia Qing came out with her head down, avoiding Lin Guzhi's gaze, and sat on the sofa to eat dinner.
