Chapter 1468: Chapter 1463: Off Guard (Part 2)

After class, Lin Xi did not go back.

Nor did he look for Zhu Ying again, best to let her cool off a bit.

Peng Bo and the other two, he didn’t need to worry about them.

Gu Xiaoxian and Ding Yueqiu, he had seen them too, no problems there.

Xi Xiaoyi, he hadn’t visited for a while.

He had previously used the Nine Divine Needles of Heaven-Reversing; even if she didn’t have any cultivation talent, her strength was at least that of an intermediate special forces soldier by now.

With that level of strength, honestly speaking, she wouldn’t face any danger in her circle.

This time, she had also been drawn into it.

Presumably, she was frightened.

As for Xixi, she always had a carefree heart and was smart, likely wouldn’t be scared.

In any case, the two of them were candidates for the seven families.

This gave Gu Long more time to make a move.

He went straight to the kindergarten where Xixi was.

At that moment, the kindergarten hadn’t finished classes yet.

But Lin Xi didn’t mind.

He walked directly into the school and found the teacher, taking Xixi away with him.

No one at the school had any objections.

Due to that previous incident, everyone sincerely appreciated Lin Xi.

Otherwise, the entire kindergarten would have been doomed.

Not just the kindergarten, but all the school staff, including the principal, would have faced serious trouble.

Considering that the children here almost all had backgrounds.

Moreover, they thought Lin Xi was someone extraordinary.

In this era, you couldn’t judge by youth, appearance, or attire.

Perhaps a street-sweeping aunt could have tens of millions in net worth.

Wasn’t there a news story recently, a company in financial crisis facing bankruptcy, and one of their cleaning ladies stepped up with five million to save them?

Yes, that aunt had a net worth of tens of millions.

Seeing Lin Xi made Xixi indescribably happy.

They headed directly to the market, Lin Xi planned to buy some ingredients to cook tonight.

To let mother and child eat well.

No other intentions.

Just a simple home-cooked meal.

As for the aunt, she could do her own thing today.

At home, Lin Xi was in charge of everything.

As for Xi Xiaoyi, she was still working at the company.

Lin Xi and Xixi hadn’t told her that Lin Xi had come.

And told the aunt not to inform her.

The aunt, of course, had no objections.

She knew Lin Xi for sure.

This was the future man of the lady of the house, not only was he good at cooking, but he also had a certain background.

He was very fond of the lady and her daughter.

Just visited infrequently.

The lady explained he was too busy.

The aunt wasn’t very knowledgeable about these things.

So, she didn’t think much about it.

Next, Lin Xi played some games with Xixi and then started cooking.

There were only the two of them left in the house.

Xixi was idle, helping Lin Xi as his assistant.

Around five o’clock, the sound of the door opening was heard.

As usual, Xi Xiaoyi returned.

Without saying anything, she placed her bag on the sofa.

Ready to lie down for a bit.

The day was quite tiring.

No, it was a long half-day.

In the morning, she was taken away by some people.

Those people said they were sent by Lin Xi.

They showed their credentials, their looks and tone didn’t resemble bad people.

Plus, her current strength as an intermediate special forces soldier.

She could sense the strength of that group wasn’t inferior to hers, two were even stronger.

With Xixi at home, it wasn’t wise to resist.

So she followed the group with Xixi.

Actually, the group didn’t do anything, instead, provided great service with terrifying politeness.

Which reinforced her belief that Lin Xi had sent them.

She didn’t expect Lin Xi to have government connections.

"Hmm?"

Now no longer the ordinary person she once was, her reflexes had naturally improved significantly.

As soon as she lay down, something felt off.

Where was Xixi?

Wouldn’t Xixi be playing some educational games in the living room at this time?

Wouldn’t the aunt come out and greet her?

Why now?

The usual scenario was missing?

Plus, noises in the kitchen?

Two people?

Why would there be two people?

If the aunt were cooking, there’d only be her.

Immediately, she stood up from the sofa, quietly, and swiftly checked Xixi’s room and the bathroom, finding Xixi wasn’t there.

Then, where’s Xixi?

The kitchen?

Impossible!

She’s too young to do anything.

The aunt wouldn’t let Xixi in the kitchen either.

Immediately, she considered a possibility.

Could it be related to the morning’s events?

This morning, she thought of a possibility.

Something happened?

That’s why Lin Xi had them brought away for safety.

Just a thought, those people didn’t explain.

She didn’t ask.

If they were meant to tell, she would’ve known.

Not telling was to avoid worrying her.

Now, was it related to that morning incident?

As she thought this, a dagger appeared in her hand.

Something she bought at the market.

Kept at home, just in case.

With confidence in her strength.

So, having this was expected.

At this moment, she reached the kitchen door.

Hmm, stealthily preparing to listen.

Who was inside?

Where’s the aunt?

Where’s Xixi?

A strong sense of danger made her extra cautious.

Anxious?

Naturally.

But anxiety fixes nothing.

Especially for a single mother, she learned long ago to handle issues herself.

Though Lin Xi’s presence relaxed her a bit.

But with Lin Xi absent now.

She had to handle it alone.

Just as she leaned to hear, the door suddenly opened.

Completely unprepared!

Hearing no movement towards the door.

Weren’t they by the fridge?

The distance between the fridge and her had to be one to two meters.

She quickly adjusted her mentality, the dagger ready to strike.

Since whatever the case, she couldn’t remain idle.

After all, she had intermediate special forces strength.

She specifically checked and secretly tested.

Could easily handle ten ordinary people.

"What are you sneaking around for?"

"Yeah, mom, when did you get back? Why didn’t you say something!"

The dagger in her hand was immediately withdrawn.

Her expression went from confusion to slightly red.

What was she thinking just now?

Seeing Lin Xi and Xixi ahead, she truly felt like hitting someone.

Yes, hitting Lin Xi.

This jerk?

He did it on purpose, right!

Wanted her to embarrass herself!

With his ability, did he really not know she returned?

Also, coming home, why not call first?

This jerk!!!
