The next day, Huangfu Lin was not seen at the breakfast table.
Xiao Tong endured it again and again, but finally couldn't help but ask Ma Zhao, "Where is Mr. Zhao?"
Zhao's mother said respectfully, "Sir didn't come back last night."
"Oh," she felt a little disappointed.
After breakfast, I subconsciously went to Huangfu Lin's room.
The empty house, with neatly folded quilts, felt cold to the touch and had no smell of being lived in, but the air was filled with a familiar smell.
It was a breath that belonged exclusively to him.
The door was open, and Frank happened to pass by while rubbing his sleepy eyes. When he saw Ning Xiaotong appear in Huangfu Lin's room, he suddenly woke up a little from his sleep.
"Xiao Tong, isn't this your room?" Frank asked knowingly.
Seeing that Ning Xiaotong was showing signs of losing his temper, Frank put away the teasing expression on his lips and put on a solemn expression, "Huangfu told me last night that he went to Burma."
Myanmar?
Looking at Ning Xiaotong's puzzled expression, Frank continued, "Let's go do business."
Huangfu Lin never hid anything from Ning Xiaotong, so Ning Xiaotong knew that Huangfu Lin was in the arms business before.
He lowered his eyes to cover the disappointment in his eyes, "When will he come back?"
"I'm not sure. It could take as little as a week or as long as half a month. It depends on the situation there."
"Oh." He responded lightly, unable to explain the joy or sorrow.
Just as he was about to go out, he heard Frank's lazy voice, "Xiaotong, if you can take the initiative to walk into Huangfu's room, can I understand that you intend to break the ice with him?"
Ning Xiaotong was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
"Xiaotong, how can you forgive that bastard Huangfu? You have to know that if you forgive him, I will be heartbroken to death." He said with a bright and tearful expression. But in his heart, he thought that he was on the bright side.
Accompanying Ning Xiaotong to relax her mood and release her stress, Mrs. Tang gave hints from time to time, one bright and one dark, which matched well.
At the very least, Ning Xiaotong has changed her mind.
Ning Xiaotong saw Frank being funny again and burst into laughter. The disappointment of Huangfu Lin's absence just now was gone. She would give him another surprise when Huangfu Lin came back.
"Being with me means risking your life." Ning Xiaotong said meaningfully.
Frank suddenly trembled. When he was playing wildly with Ning Xiaotong, he was often attacked by Huangfu Lin's cold eyes.
"Forget it, I cherish my life." Frank looked scared.
Looking at the colorful expressions on Frank's face, Ning Xiaotong couldn't help but joked, "If you take Mr. Bean as your teacher, you will definitely be better than the old one."
"What's the point of performing for others?" Frank said, looking at Ning Xiaotong with deep affection, "I just want to perform for Xiaotong alone."
Matching Frank's expression and his coquettish tone, Ning Xiaotong immediately sat on the sofa, holding her stomach and laughing non-stop.
This Frank is really talented, and he always enjoys himself half to death.
When she calmed down, Ning Xiaotong suddenly remembered the business, "Doing arms business must be very dangerous."
Frank disagreed, "Business is not about fighting, it relies on brains. What's more, Huangfu is so good at it."
Ning Xiaotong frowned, "But no matter how fast you are, you can't be faster than bullets."
