Li Xiao's expression suddenly became a little subtle and he looked at Cai Xiaotang.
Cai Xiaotang looked at him in confusion and asked casually: "What's the matter? Tell me."
Li Xiao did not speak, but paused for two seconds, and then said: "You have to promise first that you won't be angry after what I said..."
"ha?"
When Cai Xiaotang heard this, she became even more puzzled, and her mind suddenly became more active.
Did this guy secretly do something behind her back?
His curiosity was instantly aroused. Thinking that the person in front of him had not been in a good mood these days, and knowing that he would not really do anything too extreme, Cai Xiaotang nodded "generously" and said, "Well, Just tell me, I promise I won’t be angry.”
Li Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, obviously not having much confidence in her assurance. He paused for two seconds before continuing.
"Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that... I... asked someone to buy your company before. The procedures have been completed in the past two days..."
"What!!!"
Cai Xiaotang didn't wait for Li Xiao to finish speaking, and her mouth was so shocked that it felt like she could fit an egg in it.
Did she hear it correctly?
company?
Bought it?
Why did he buy her company so well?
"Ahem... you said you won't be angry." Li Xiao coughed lightly, reminding her of what she had just promised, but she couldn't help but smile a little at the corners of her lips.
"When did you do it?"
Cai Xiaotang finally came to her senses and continued to ask with a shocked look on her face.
Li Xiao replied: "I have been contacting your boss for some time, probably since the time when we were still abroad. However, in order to take care of your thoughts, I have no intention of making this matter public. On the surface, he is still the boss, but as for you..."
Li Xiao paused for a moment and looked at Cai Xiaotang.
"I don't want to interfere with your work. I just saw how happy you were at that time and wanted to be free to take you on a trip at any time in the future, so I asked someone to do this. If you go to work, you can go to work. No. Your identity will be exposed. If you don’t want to go to work, wouldn’t it be nice to ask your boss to explain to others that you are on a business trip?”
He considered almost all possibilities for Cai Xiaotang.
Cai Xiaotang paused slightly and said nothing.
Buying a company was such a big deal that she couldn't accept for a while.
As he was thinking about it, his fingertips were gently pinched.
Li Xiao's voice also sounded again.
"I'm just finally free. I don't have to worry about anything anymore. How about you treat it as a holiday from now on and spend more time with me?"
There was a rare hint of weakness in his tone, which made Cai Xiaotang's heart tremble.
During this period, she really noticed Li Xiao's condition.
It was also very distressing to see him trying so hard to hide all his emotions in front of her.
Cai Xiaotang sighed helplessly in his heart, and nodded gently.
"good."
She agreed.
"How about going out for a walk after a while? Is there anywhere you want to go?"
Li Xiao guessed that she would probably refuse, so he continued to ask.
"I can do whatever you want. I'll do whatever you want."
Cai Xiaotang started the car and drove in the direction of the supermarket. He and Li Xiao discussed places to go, and his originally heavy mood relaxed a lot.
Let it all go.
Those who have passed away rest in peace.
Those who are alive should continue to move forward in life.
At least she no longer has to worry about Li Xiao getting hurt.
…
One month later——
On the sunny beach, Cai Xiaotang was lying on a lounge chair, enjoying a wonderful sunbathing. She was a little thirsty and waited for Li Xiao who went to buy juice.
Then out of the corner of his eye, he saw a tall foreign man walking towards him with two glasses of juice.
"Hi, miss, can I buy you a drink?"
The man asked in English and placed the juice in his hand on the table next to Cai Xiaotang in a very gentlemanly manner.
After hearing this, Cai Xiaotang hurriedly sat up, shook her head, and was about to refuse——
"Sorry, she's my wife."
A slightly cool voice suddenly broke in.
Another glass of juice was also placed on the table, squeezing away the glass that the man had placed just now and landing it in his original place.
Cai Xiaotang's ears felt hot, and then she heard someone's jealous tone, and almost burst into laughter without holding back.
The man was also stunned, and hurriedly said "Sorry" and turned to leave.
"Wait a moment."
Li Xiao suddenly stopped the person in English, glanced at the table, and uttered a few words.
"Your juice."
The other party was stunned again, hurriedly picked up the cup, said sorry again, and then turned around and left in a slightly embarrassed manner.
Li Xiao stared at the man's back for a few seconds, finally turned around and planned to sit down.
As soon as he turned around, he was stunned for a moment. His eyes swept across Cai Xiaotang and darkened suddenly.
She was wearing a white swimsuit today. The upper body was a breast-hugging style, revealing an unmanageable slender waist in the middle. The lower part was a white short skirt, which only barely covered her thighs.
Looking from where Li Xiao was standing, he could just see his chest...
Why didn't I notice her swimsuit was so sexy when I went out today?
Li Xiao muttered something in his heart, his eyes darkened, he picked up the bath towel that Cai Xiaotang had thrown aside and covered her chest.
Cai Xiaotang raised her eyebrows and immediately asked with a smile: "What? Are you jealous?"
"No."
Li Xiao answered quickly.
After finishing speaking, he did not forget to explain harshly: "Being so jealous, how unconfident do I feel about myself?"
With that said, he took the juice he just brought and handed it to Cai Xiaotang.
"Thanks."
Cai Xiaotang happily took it, looking at someone's obviously unhappy expression, she felt sweet in her heart.
For the past month, he and Li Xiao had been wandering around in warm places, and no one mentioned what happened before.
I just regularly check with the hospital about Lao Qi’s condition.
only……
But he never woke up.
When Cai Xiaotang thought about this, her heart felt a little blocked.
Then I heard Li Xiao suddenly ask: "Where is your ring?"
"Um?"
She suddenly came back to her senses and subconsciously looked at her ring finger.
Then he explained casually: "Oh, I was afraid of accidentally losing it, so I didn't bring it with me."
One time when she was shopping, she suddenly discovered that her ring was missing. She searched anxiously for a long time, but she couldn't find it.
She thought she had really lost it, and she was frustrated for a long time. It was not until she returned to the hotel in the evening that she realized that she had accidentally left it beside the sink and forgot to take it away, which was a false alarm.
From then on, she would pay extra attention when going to crowded places and simply stopped taking it out.
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Li Xiao say quietly again: "I don't have a ring, no wonder someone would come up to chat with me..."
