Chapter 1023 - 1032: Gifts Are Still Necessary (Part 2)
Chapter 1023: Chapter 1032: Gifts Are Still Necessary (Part 2)
Gu Long, the most formidable intelligence officer of the Dragon King, has the early-level strength of the King of Soldiers. However, as an intelligence officer, concealment talent is necessary, and in terms of concealment talent, he is undoubtedly the most formidable one Lin Xi has encountered to date.
As for the old man beside him, when Lin Xi went to the United Kingdom previously, it was him who helped navigate the fast lane for entry.
He should be an airport executive.
Unexpectedly, this early morning, the two of them were waiting for him here.
Could there be a matter?
After Lin Xi disembarked from the plane, seeing Gu Long and the old man walking over with smiles on their faces, he couldn’t help but ask, "Don’t tell me, you are here especially for me?"
Gu Long nodded, "Mr. Lin, was your trip to the United Kingdom smooth?"
Indeed it was?
Lin Xi was surprised but replied, "Everything went smoothly!"
Then he immediately asked, "Are you sure there’s nothing you need from me?"
Gu Long shook his head, while the old man appeared even more humble.
From the expressions of the two, Lin Xi could tell they truly didn’t have anything urgent, simply waiting for him.
Luo Susu, Dili Bare, and the group also disembarked at this time.
As for the luggage, naturally, there would be people helping to deliver it to the baggage carousel.
"Who are they?" Dili Bare stepped forward and couldn’t help but ask.
Though she usually appeared carefree, she was actually very meticulous; otherwise, she wouldn’t have reached her current position.
Even though both Gu Long and the old man were dressed indistinguishably from regular people,
she could sense from their demeanor that these two were not ordinary.
After all, it was quite apparent considering they didn’t react at all to her and Xie Ziqi’s presence.
Both of them were well-known throughout Huaxia, practically recognized by everyone, from young to old.
Moreover, she and Luo Susu were regarded as goddess-level figures.
Whether people knew them or not, seeing them for the first time would certainly leave an impression.
But now, these two maintained an unchanged demeanor throughout.
Even as they looked at their group, they merely nodded politely.
"My friends!" Lin Xi said.
Dili Bare didn’t ask further, and the group boarded the shuttle usually reserved for first-class passengers.
What happened next left Dili Bare and the others wide-eyed.
Because when exiting the airport, led by Gu Long and the old man, they took a special passage entirely.
This was significantly quicker than their entry into London Airport.
Moreover, none of their luggage was inspected.
However, aside from their group, several passengers from other flights were having their luggage checked.
This made them realize everything was related to Lin Xi’s two friends.
Just by observing, one could see airport staff nodding and greeting the old man.
"My bags, my boxes!!!"
At that moment, outside the airport, especially Dili Bare nearly went frantic.
Knowing with those bags and boxes, the things they bought would certainly look nicer and more luxurious.
Now stashed in the suitcase, if opened, it would resemble something counterfeit.
They truly didn’t expect that when Lin Xi mentioned in the room that he had connections to use a special passage without any inspections, it turned out to be true.
Why didn’t they believe him at the time?
At this moment, many people internally felt regret.
Now, Lin Xi sensed Dili Bare’s angry gaze, along with many others’ resentful stares, and was a bit baffled.
Having no idea what they were concerned about.
However, he didn’t care, focusing instead on returning home swiftly.
So afterward, he didn’t share a car with Dili Bare or Xie Ziqi, nor with Luo Susu.
After ensuring they all went off, he greeted Gu Long and the old man, hailed a taxi, and headed home.
At the villa entrance, Lin Xi walked straight in.
A gentle push opened the door.
This door wasn’t locked, did they know he was returning today?
He shook his head, probably not.
They likely never locked the door, but there wasn’t much need for concern.
Not to mention the excellent security of the villa community, where burglaries or crimes were practically unseen.
Even if they were present, there’s nothing to fear.
Not with Mengmeng at her Innate Realm, Bai Bing possessing the strength of King of Soldiers, and even Su Qiaoqiao, no longer her former sickly self.
After Lin Xi’s application of the fourth needle of the Nine Divine Needles of Heaven-Reversing, she possessed the prowess of a special forces soldier, with her cold syndrome fully suppressed.
Of course, such an illness cannot be completely cured.
In the future, by finding a secret method related to cold energies, Su Qiaoqiao wouldn’t just suffer no harm from her cold syndrome, but her abilities would dramatically enhance, improving her physical condition.
Entering the hall, he glanced around; nothing had changed since he left.
The only difference was the abundance of delivery boxes in the corner.
No doubt, this was due to Mengmeng’s newfound shopping enthusiasm.
Retrieving some lipsticks and necklaces bought at the airport’s brand stores from the Jade Pendant Space, he placed them on the table.
These were gifts for the three women.
He then went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
About half an hour later, once everything was ready, the three women headed downstairs led by Bai Bing, attracted by the aroma.
Worrying about intruders didn’t cross their minds.
Upon seeing Lin Xi, only Lin Mengmeng threw herself at him, clinging to him entirely.
Honestly, he found it overwhelming.
Given Lin Mengmeng’s top-tier height and figure, a standard measurement of ultimate beauty, with abundant elasticity.
"Daddy, why did you leave for so long? Mengmeng missed you so much!" she said and kissed Lin Xi.
To Lin Xi, upon hearing the term "daddy," it felt like a cold shower extinguishing all his fire.
Bai Bing’s expression remained cold as usual, seemingly unaffected by Lin Xi’s return.
Nevertheless, Lin Xi noticed a fleeting hint of joy on her face.
As for Su Qiaoqiao, she pursed her lips, as if holding back unkind words, though refraining from speaking ill of Lin Xi in Bai Bing’s presence.
"Hey, what’s this?" She glanced around and spotted the presents on the table.
At once, Lin Mengmeng and Bai Bing were drawn over.
"Are these gifts you bought for us?" Su Qiaoqiao picked up a lipstick and asked again.
Mengmeng, at this moment, took a necklace box from the table and directly adorned her elegant neck with the necklace.
Bai Bing took the last box and looked at it, "What’s inside?"
As there were no markings on the box.
