A few minutes later--
Luo Wanwan was brought over by Lao Qi.
As soon as she entered the door, she was keenly aware that something was wrong in the atmosphere.
But he still acted like he didn't know anything and asked cautiously: "Li Xiao, do you have anything to do with me?"
Li Xiao said nothing and looked up at Lao Qi next to him.
Lao Qi immediately understood: "I'm going out first, you guys chat."
As he spoke, he wisely turned around and left, closing the door behind him.
Li Xiao was not in a hurry to speak, his eyes fell on Luo Wanwan, as if he was sizing up something.
Luo Wanwan couldn't help but panic for a moment.
Li Xiao...what does this mean?
Did he discover something?
Luo Wanwan thought to herself, not daring to speak easily, so she could only wait for Li Xiao to take the initiative.
finally--
"I just suddenly thought of something."
Li Xiao finally spoke, but his tone was not as cold as his face. Instead, he asked with some concern.
"I left too hastily in the morning and took everyone away. After all, you are here to recuperate. It doesn't seem good to leave you alone. I wonder if it scares you? After all, you have left here. This kind of life is far away.”
"of course not!"
When Luo Wanwan heard that Li Xiao was concerned about her, he was immediately elated and hurriedly followed his words and said: "It's just that I'm really worried about you. I can't sit still while waiting at home..."
"Have you been waiting for us to come back?"
A dark light suddenly flashed in Li Xiao's eyes.
Luo Wanwan immediately nodded matter-of-factly: "Of course, I also thought that Xiaotang must have been frightened after experiencing such a thing. I wanted to wait for her to come back and make her something she likes to eat..."
"Luo Wanwan."
Li Xiao didn't want to hear her continue lying, so he finally couldn't help but interrupt.
There was a sudden coldness in his eyes.
When Luo Wanwan met his eyes, her expression suddenly froze, and an ominous premonition arose in her heart.
Then he heard Li Xiao sneer.
"We went to rescue Xiaotang today, but we were tricked by the people on the opposite side. But what's interesting is that a group of people appeared out of nowhere and came to help."
Luo Wanwan's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he realized something instantly.
Discovered?
Not appropriate……
Li Xiao was with people below, and she also evacuated them in time...
Luo Wanwan pursed her lips tightly and quickly thought about where she was exposed.
Then I heard Li Xiao continue: "My people took some very interesting photos at the scene. Unfortunately, they took the leader of the other party, who is a woman. Regarding this, do you have anything to explain to me?" Really? Or...do you want to see the photos in person?"
He did not expose Luo Wanwan directly, but gave her the choice.
There is a depressing atmosphere in Nuoda's space.
Luo Wanwan lowered her eyes and said nothing, but she knew in her heart that if she hadn't already been sure, Li Xiao wouldn't have been so sure and even confronted her face to face.
But what he hates most is deception.
If you tell the truth, it means admitting in front of him that she had a premeditated plan and ulterior motives from the moment she appeared.
She must find a defensible reason!
Luo Wanwan quickly thought about countermeasures.
For a long time——
Then he said helplessly and softly: "Li Xiao, I'm sorry, I lied to you, but... there is a reason for all this... I..."
Her tone sounded a little eager, and there was even a glimmer of water in her eyes.
Seeing that Li Xiao had no intention of speaking, he continued: "I did receive the task after I recovered from my injury... But because the confidentiality level is too high, there is no way to tell anyone, including you. Inside."
Li Xiao paused after hearing this, and his expression finally changed.
Confidential mission...
Is it the one he failed to find despite all his efforts?
What's going on up there?
Li Xiao's eyes flickered for a moment, and finally he said: "But you didn't mean that you don't want to live the same life as before, and your body..."
Li Xiao paused and did not continue.
Luo Wanwan understood what he meant.
Her body is indeed not as good as it used to be.
Logically speaking, even if there is a confidential mission, she should not be responsible for it.
Luo Wanwan made that embarrassed expression again and continued: "I know what you want to say. My body is indeed not as good as before in the past few years, but... for some other reasons, the superiors hope that I will continue to stay." I have developed a new drug that can restore all functions of my body, but the condition is...this mission must be completed successfully."
"Why? You don't have to agree."
Li Xiao looked at Luo Wanwan in confusion, half-believing her words, but he had a vague answer in his heart.
Then he saw the other party's expression change slightly.
Luo Wanwan was silent for two seconds and suddenly chuckled.
"Of course it's because... I want to come back and help you. Even though you may not need it anymore, the mission has begun. I have no way out. And no matter what the conditions are, I must accept this mission!"
After Luo Wanwan finished speaking, the atmosphere suddenly became a little dull.
Li Xiao wanted to ask her why she had to accept this task.
But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
Because he knew that even if he asked, Luo Wanwan probably wouldn't tell.
Li Xiao thought about it secretly, but asked: "Why didn't you tell me at first? Why did you choose to tell the truth now?"
Luo Wanwan had a wry smile on his face when he heard this.
"You have already taken a photo of me. If it is true, then it is useless for me to lie. If it is false, it means that you are already doubting me and want to test me, so in addition to telling the truth, I also Is there any other choice?"
The air was quiet again for a moment.
For a long time——
Li Xiao suddenly said in a deep voice: "If I said that I don't need you to come back and help, then this mission..."
Luo Wanwan froze instantly and dug her fingertips into her palms.
Is Li Xiao... rejecting her?
For Cai Xiaotang, are you not even willing to just keep her by your side to help?
That damn woman Cai Xiaotang!
Without her, Li Xiao wouldn't be like this!
Luo Wanwan's eyes quickly flashed with hatred, and then suddenly showed a lonely look.
"Whether you accept it or not, this mission cannot be interrupted."
She spoke softly.
The room became quiet for an unknown number of times.
For a long time——
Li Xiao sighed helplessly.
"In that case...if there is anything you need help with, you can just ask."
He didn't want to interfere with Luo Wanwan's affairs, and he wouldn't believe everything she said.
For now, that's all I can say.
"good……"
Luo Wanwan agreed, then turned and left without saying anything more.
But the moment he turned around, his face showed a fierce look.
In this way... Li Xiao shouldn't doubt her anymore, right?
Her time is running out...
If there is no way to completely erase Cai Xiaotang from Li Xiao's heart in the end, then...
She had only one last option left.
No matter what, Li Xiao can only be hers!
