Chapter 1350
Lu Si’s expression shifted several times, but in the end, she remained silent.
Seeing this, Aikesilinda sneered, walked up to Ximen Wudi, reached out, and wrapped her arms around his neck. After leaning in close, she winked at Lu Si: “Lu Si, do you see? He’s not a good person at all. You really need to keep your eyes open and not be fooled by this flashy world. Think carefully about what I said.”
Lu Si clenched her fists. She knew Aikesilinda was stating a fact; Ximen Wudi was truly a top-tier handsome man.
It was a pity that Lu Si was not such a shallow girl.
Of course, this also had to do with Ximen Wudi’s age; if she were Lu Si’s age, she probably would have already thrown herself into Ximen Wudi’s arms.
“Hey, can we discuss this from a different angle?” Ximen Wudi shook his head helplessly and said.
Lu Si bit her lip lightly: “Aikesilinda, you should go.”
“Lu Si, have you really decided to be with him?” Aikesilinda stared into Lu Si’s eyes, remaining silent for a full five seconds before saying: “This man might be very dangerous. It’s not just his looks; his entire being exudes a dangerous aura.”
Ximen Wudi chimed in with a smile: “Beautiful lady, since you know it’s dangerous, you should leave quickly. I’ve already given up my bed for you.”
This guy’s tone was full of provocation.
Aikesilinda glanced at Ximen Wudi, then sneered: “Fine, just you wait.”
After leaving this harsh remark, the beautiful woman picked up her backpack and left in a huff.
“Is she gone?” Ximen Wudi asked Lu Si.
“She’s gone.” Lu Si’s voice sounded a bit muffled, as if she were suppressing something.
“Um, I didn’t mean to…” Ximen Wudi scratched the back of his head awkwardly.
He truly hadn’t meant to.
After all, last night, a certain beast had indeed been touching around in certain places; although he hadn’t done anything, it was certainly quite easy to misunderstand.
“You don’t need to explain,” Lu Si said. “I know what happened.”
With that, she took out her phone and dialed a number: “Kaijisi, I’m introducing a client to you. The other party needs to order a Rolls-Royce. I’ll send you the license plate number; please help me handle it.”
After finishing, Lu Si hung up the phone directly and then said: “We can head to the airport now.”
“Lu Si, do you still need a driver? I can be your driver,” Ximen Wudi said with a cheerful laugh.
“Who wants you!” Aikesilinda looked at Ximen Wudi and said: “You haven’t been to China in so long, yet you’re quite the playboy.”
She clearly still remembered that she had once confessed her feelings to Ximen Wudi.
“Uh, I wouldn’t call this being a playboy.” Ximen Wudi coughed twice and then said: “I was just saving someone. Lu Si was seriously injured, so I helped treat her.”
Upon hearing this, a look of disdain flashed in Aikesilinda’s eyes: “How hypocritical.”
“Hypocritical?” Ximen Wudi shook his head: “Forget it, let’s not argue about this. I’ll take you to the airport and see you off.”
“You’re still going to accompany me to the airport? I feel like I’m mostly fine; I might wake up today,” Lu Si said.
Ximen Wudi waved his hand: “It’s fine, I’m not tired anyway, and it’s on the way.”
Aikesilinda stood behind them and said mockingly: “Lu Si, you’re so lucky. You just escaped danger and already met the boy you admire.”
This sentence sounded full of jealousy.
However, in Lu Si’s view, Aikesilinda’s behavior was actually inappropriate because she clearly had already fallen for this Chinese youth.
Since she was young, Aikesilinda had always prided herself on being one of the top ten campus beauties in the US, but now that two flowers had been planted in two piles of cow dung, she was naturally unhappy.
“Aikesilinda, please watch your language!” Lu Si scolded, then turned to look at Ximen Wudi with soft eyes: “Thank you for being willing to take me back to China.”
“I’ve said it before, your injuries cannot be delayed. Let’s go back to China to recuperate for a while first,” Ximen Wudi said. “I won’t let you suffer any grievances.”
“Hmm, whether what you say is true or false, I am very grateful to you,” Lu Si said.
Ximen Wudi nodded. He glanced at Aikesilinda and said calmly: “However, I think you should be thankful that I didn’t kill you.”
This sentence could be described as extremely domineering!
A wave of angry crimson flooded Aikesilinda’s eyes!
“You bastard! What kind of nonsense are you spouting!”
“If I hadn’t arrived in time, Lu Si would have already died at the end of your gun, do you know that?” Ximen Wudi narrowed his eyes: “I don’t want to see you continue to be arrogant, and I especially don’t want to see you bullying her.”
As he spoke, Ximen Wudi pointed at Lu Si’s chest.
“Bastard, how dare you insult me!” Aikesilinda raised her gun, aimed it at Ximen Wudi, and said: “Do you believe I’ll blow your head off right now!”
“I advise you not to be impulsive. You should be thankful that I don’t want to shoot a woman right now,” Ximen Wudi smiled slightly: “Otherwise, you would already be a corpse.”
Aikesilinda’s pretty face turned red: “A guy like you is simply a scoundrel. You bastard, I’d feel like I was dirtying my hands if I shot you!”
“Aikesilinda!” Lu Si shouted in a low voice.
“Lu Si, I’m warning you, I came to Africa this time to carry out a mission, and… how many people in your mercenary group die unnatural deaths every year?” Aikesilinda sneered mockingly: “If it weren’t for my father protecting me, how could you be standing here right now?”
After saying this, Aikesilinda put away her gun and turned to leave!
Lu Si stood where she was, looking at Ximen Wudi, wanting to say something but stopping, her gaze filled with guilt.
Ximen Wudi sighed slightly: “Don’t blame yourself, Lu Si. Aikesilinda just has a fiery temper.”
At this moment, he suddenly felt like he was a hero.
At the very least, at this moment, he was indeed a hero.
Lu Si nodded: “I hope she can change her personality; otherwise, I don’t want to be friends with her.”
“You’re right about that.” Ximen Wudi nodded, then, as if thinking of something, he lowered his voice and asked: “I think this Aikesilinda must like you, right?”
This sentence almost made Lu Si lose her composure.
However, since there were no outsiders around, she didn’t hide it and nodded: “I noticed it too.”
“Is this a case of ‘love deeply, blame severely,’ or is it deep-seated hatred?” Ximen Wudi asked again.
Hearing this, Lu Si hesitated and said: “I can’t really say.”
“Perhaps it’s the former,” Ximen Wudi said: “I think this girl is also someone with a story.”
Hearing Ximen Wudi’s words, Aikesilinda’s footsteps paused slightly; she seemed to be thinking about whether Ximen Wudi’s words were correct.
“You don’t need to pay attention to these gossipy rumors; it will affect your mood for work. Let’s go to the airport now, or we’ll be late by the time the plane lands,” Lu Si said.
She was also worried that Aikesilinda would cause more trouble.
“Is your travel itinerary all set?” Ximen Wudi asked.
“We’ve already booked a hotel in advance,” Lu Si said. “We’re staying at the Hilton Hotel under the Luojia Crown Group.”
“Alright.” Ximen Wudi looked at Lu Si: “But I suggest you’d better not sleep for too long.”
“Why is that?” Lu Si couldn’t help but ask.
“Because you suffered a very serious injury this time. I suspect you might need restorative treatment, but this level of surgery requires hospital facilities, you understand.”
“That’s for sure, I understand…” Lu Si’s pretty face turned red again.
Of course she understood.
“So, take advantage of the time before we arrive at the capital airport to get a few more hours of sleep; it can also replenish your energy and will be extremely helpful for your recovery.”
As he spoke, Ximen Wudi reached out his arms, hugged Lu Si gently, and then patted her on the shoulder.
Lu Si instinctively took half a step back, and then her pretty face immediately turned red enough to drip blood.
Ximen Wudi didn’t know how much Lu Si’s state had changed compared to last time.
That time, after Ximen Wudi hugged Lu Si, he hadn’t gained any advantage and had even been scratched on the cheek by Lu Si. This matter had always weighed on Ximen Wudi’s mind, but tonight, this gentle hug made Lu Si’s heart tremble once again.
“Let’s go, let’s go buy tickets and board the plane,” Lu Si said.
“Alright.” Ximen Wudi followed by her side, helped Lu Si into the car, and then started the engine.
After Lu Si closed her eyes and began to sleep, Ximen Wudi took out his phone and sent a text message to the Strategist.
“Strategist, I’m at the airport.”
The Strategist replied instantly: “I’ll be there immediately.”
The tone of this sentence sounded infinitely grave.
…………
Ximen Wudi didn’t immediately drive back to Washington; after all, Lu Si’s physical condition hadn’t completely stabilized, and he was worried. If a sudden situation occurred on the way, it could be a fatal danger.
