Chapter 168 It's Like Saying Goodbye 2
Obviously, it didn't mean to go to a restaurant, but to invite him to eat what she made by herself.

Ye Xingchen couldn't help frowning, they didn't know each other so well, did they?

She stared slightly, trying to find something in his eyes, but found that his eyes were deep, so clear that there was no trace of impurity, but it seemed that something was deep in his eyes, in short, she couldn't understand at all.

She thought of the watch quickly, and said hastily, "At Christmas time..."

"Like it?" He interrupted her.

Ye Xingchen's expression froze. Although he had already guessed that he gave it to him, she never thought that he would be so direct. She didn't understand what he was thinking. They were not relatives, and he gave her a piece for no reason. What is such an expensive watch for?Although she admits that the watch looks good, it doesn't mean she can accept it, let alone like it or not!
"Mr. Zuo, wait a moment, I'll go upstairs." She had to return the watch to him.

"Okay." Zuo Lingfeng actually agreed.

Ye Xingchen subconsciously quickened his pace and rushed upstairs.

And behind her, Zuo Lingfeng watched her back with tender eyes until her figure disappeared.

When he returned to the car, his handsome side face was reflected in the car window, he quickly started the engine, stepped on the accelerator, and his eyes were instantly chilled, like a samurai going to hell.

A moment later, Ye Xingchen ran downstairs panting, with a watch in his hand, but only saw the tail lights of the Lamborghini flashing, submerged in the night.

She quickly took out her mobile phone and called him, but it was turned off.

She bit her lip subconsciously, and suddenly had a weird feeling, why did it feel like he came to say goodbye?

The next day, Ye Xingchen saw a big news on TV. Zuo Lingfeng's Lingfeng Group entered the international market. He invested 50 billion to develop emerald mines in Colombia.

Colombia's emerald reserves rank first in the world. The Muzo mining area is the place where the best emeralds are produced in the world. In Colombia, where sedimentary rocks are located, most emeralds are produced in hydrothermal veins. Extremely complex and intense geological structures, such as orogenic structures , metamorphism, emergence and erosion of the land, the stratum bends and folds during the deposition process, and cracks are formed by the impact of pressure, and the magma rich in mineral deposits will flow between these cracks, and the originally opposite elements combine and crystallize, and combine with the sedimentary rocks. The action eventually produced the emerald.

From "Cleopatra" in the West to "The Romance of the West Chamber" in the East, there are imprints about emeralds. The history of emeralds seems destined to be a web of legends and superstitions, rich and fascinating.

Zuo Lingfeng's big money this time undoubtedly shocked the entire jewelry market. Reporters reported one after another, and the news was almost overwhelming.

Newspapers, magazines, TV stations, the Internet... All kinds of media are full of this news. The frequency of the three words Zuo Lingfeng appearing is comparable to that of the US presidential election a while ago. It can be said that everyone knows, everyone knows, All are great words of praise.

Ye Xingchen didn't know why, but had a vague premonition.

The time continued for a few more days, and finally came to February 2, the day when the closed training of the special brigade ended.

Early in the morning, Ye Xingchen began to wait for Lou Xi's call, but at night, the special ringtone still didn't ring.

After dinner, as usual, I watched cartoons with Sisi, took a bath after that, and put the little girl to sleep... Everything was done, but there was still no news from him!

Finally, she couldn't bear her anxiety anymore, she didn't care about anything, and she took the initiative to call, but there was a cold female voice on the receiver, "I'm sorry, the person you dialed..."

She didn't even have the patience to finish listening, so she hung up the phone directly and continued to feel uneasy.

She was sitting on the bedside, holding the mobile phone and editing the text messages over and over again, typing word by word, Lou Xi, Lou Xi, Lou Xi...

His name was written all over the screen. She didn't know how many of his names she had typed, but every time she typed one, she felt as if he would hear her call immediately, and there would be news immediately. Yes, now, now!
At 10:50, it seemed that it would be 11:[-] p.m., but there was still nothing. She even suspected that her mobile phone was broken, so she took it to the window and shook it, hoping that the signal would be sufficient.

She knew that the lights in the army were about to go out, and if he didn't call, there would be no hope for tonight.

At this moment, the phone rang, that ringtone that belonged exclusively to him!
"Ah..." She almost screamed.

The line of defense that had been tense for a long time collapsed in an instant. I never knew that waiting would be so tormenting. When it came, I was so pleasantly surprised. My heart skipped a beat, and I quickly picked it up, and shouted hastily, "Lou Xi!"

"Xingchen." His voice was as deep and pleasant as ever, and it reached her ears, but it seemed very far away. I don't know if it's been a long time since I heard it.

Ye Xingchen took a deep breath, held the phone in one hand, pressed his thumping left chest with the other, tried to make his voice sound calm, and asked softly, "Well... when will you be back?"

He paused, then said in a deep voice, "Not yet."

Ye Xingchen's heart suddenly sank. It was confirmed at this moment that he should go on a mission soon, that unprecedented, arduous, revenge mission!
She frowned, but tried her best to keep calm, and didn't want to ask him anything about the mission, for fear that if she asked, he would feel uncomfortable, and if she heard it, it would make her even more uncomfortable.

And she didn't want him to worry about herself before he left, so she squeezed out a smile and said casually, "I've already got my driver's license, isn't it great?"

On the other end of the phone, Lou Xi was half happy and half sad. Originally, he wanted to teach her to drive in person, but he didn't make time, and she didn't want him to worry about her, so she went to the driving school alone!

"Is the car picked up?" He asked softly.

"No, let's go together when you come back!" She tightened her hand holding the fuselage slightly, and her breathing also tightened, and she even had some difficulty breathing. There was a slight tremor in her voice, but she still pretended to be relaxed. Said, "Didn't I tell you that I will take you for a ride!"

What they said was a deal, he must remember, and he must keep the promise!

"Okay, let's go together when I come back." He said in a deep voice.

"Hmm." She responded softly, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and asked again, "What are you doing?"

Lou Xi suddenly paused, as if he was in a bit of a dilemma. After a few seconds of silence, he slowly opened his mouth and said three words, "Write something."

The corners of Ye Xingchen's raised mouth froze just now, and he couldn't smile anymore. He said it very implicitly, but she knew that he was writing a suicide note!

The heart seemed to be grabbed by someone, it was so painful, the hand that was not holding the phone, hugged the big bear on the bed, as if it was him, hugged it tightly, greedily absorbing the ray of warmth .

"I'm also writing something, the work summary at the end of the year." She deliberately changed the subject and smiled softly.

Lou Xi frowned slightly, as if to comfort her, and said, "Don't stay up too late, I'll write tomorrow during the day."

"Going to work during the day!"

"Isn't tomorrow the weekend?"

"It's the weekend, but I have to be on duty." She looked sideways and saw that Sisi was sleeping soundly, but she couldn't help but want to wake her up and ask her to talk to her father.

Let go of the big bear in his hand, and lightly pecked her pink ears, Sisi moved, but didn't wake up immediately, the little girl was always very good at night, she didn't cry or make trouble, when she woke up, she kissed again Dear, after repeating it a few times, the little girl opened her eyes with a dazed look on her face.
