Chapter 458 Return
Like a little bird returning to its nest, Xin Xin ran over barefoot, nestled into Su Xi's arms and rubbed against her, then turned around and skillfully climbed onto Chen Le's lap, finding a comfortable position to settle down, her little face still bearing the marks of the pillow.
"Have you had enough sleep?"
Chen Le gently rubbed his chin against the top of his daughter's soft hair, speaking very softly.
"Ok!"
Xin Xin nodded vigorously, then looked at Chen Le with bright, sparkling eyes.
"Daddy, seashell! My little seashell!"
She found a few pretty seashells on the beach before going to bed and kept them on her bedside table like treasures.
"Okay, the shell is here."
Chen Le smiled, picked her up, and headed towards the bedroom. Su Xi followed with a smile.
The family of three squeezed together next to their daughter's crib.
The tiny seashell was carefully handled by Xin Xin, becoming her favorite toy before bedtime.
Chen Le and Su Xi sat on either side of her and told her a short and heartwarming bedtime story.
Xin Xin's eyes gradually closed again, her hand still tightly clutching the seashell she had found on the beach.
After confirming that his daughter was fast asleep again, Chen Le carefully took the seashell from her little hand and gently placed it beside her pillow. He leaned down and planted a goodnight kiss on his daughter's smooth forehead.
Su Xi also bent down and kissed her daughter's cheek.
The two tiptoed out and returned to the living room. Chen Le naturally put his arm around Su Xi's waist and led her towards the master bedroom.
"Tired?"
Su Xi leaned against him and asked.
Chen Le shook his head, lowered his head and kissed the crown of her head, his voice deep and satisfied:
"With you all here, how could I be tired?"
He turned off the living room lights, leaving only a faint light in the hallway.
the next morning,
Sunlight streams into the suite of the five-star hotel.
Chen Le squatted down and carefully fastened the buckles on her daughter Xin Xin's little sandals.
Su Xi stood to the side, holding a sun hat. The holiday was over, and she was preparing to return home.
Chen Le's phone, lying on the sofa, was lit up, displaying a notification from the Xiang family regarding their separation. He glanced at the headline casually, his eyes expressionless, as if he were looking at an insignificant advertisement.
"Xiang's Group is deeply shocked and disappointed by the final quality of the 'Legend of Immortals' project!"
"As investors, we are equally distressed that our huge investment has failed to achieve the expected market response. Following an emergency resolution by the group's board of directors, we are immediately terminating all cooperative projects with director Zheng Tianming and his affiliated companies."
"We are also victims of being misled. We never expected that director Zheng Tianming could deliver such a disappointing work!"
It seems that Zheng Tianming has become a discarded pawn of the Xiang family. Chen Le knows that Zheng Tianming can no longer cause any trouble.
Next, the Xiang family will probably target me.
"Dad, are you done?"
Xin Xin asked.
"All right."
Chen Le stood up, easily picked up his daughter, and kissed her. "Let's go home."
Su Xi put the hat on Xin Xin and took Chen Le's arm.
Just as Chen Le picked up his luggage and was about to take Su Xi and her daughter Xin Xin back with him, his precognitive ability suddenly activated uncontrollably.
He was startled for a moment, then narrowed his eyes.
A scene suddenly flashed before his eyes: a middle-aged man in a suit and tie was rushing toward his room with several bodyguards.
It seems a very important person is about to visit me!
Chen Le's heart skipped a beat, but he quickly put his thoughts aside.
However, speaking of which, his precognitive abilities have started to act strangely lately. They weren't activated much a while ago, but they've started activating unusually frequently these past few days.
However, this change did not cause Chen Le any trouble; on the contrary, it made him more adept at dealing with various situations.
After all, the more frequently his precognitive abilities are activated, the more advantageous it is for him, as he can foresee more things and make more adequate preparations.
Chen Le didn't pay much attention to the change in his precognitive abilities. Instead, he quickly composed himself, picked up his luggage, and looked at Su Xi and her daughter, Xin Xin.
"Su Xi, Xin Xin, we should go."
Chen Le said with a smile.
Su Xi nodded, and Xin Xin waved her little hands excitedly:
"Go home!"
Chen Le carried Xin Xin and walked out of the room with Su Xi.
however.
As soon as Chen Le opened the door, he saw a familiar figure standing outside.
Bai Zhi, dressed in a smart black suit, stood there straight with her hands behind her back, looking like she had been waiting for a long time.
"Bai Zhi? What are you doing here?"
Chen Le asked, somewhat surprised.
Bai Zhi turned around, a slight smile on her face:
"Mr. Chen, I've been waiting for you here."
Chen Le raised an eyebrow: "Don't you still have a few days of vacation left? Why don't you rest more?"
Bai Zhi shook her head, looking somewhat helpless: "It's no fun being here all by myself. Besides, I'd rather go back and earn five times your salary."
Upon hearing this, Chen Le burst into laughter.
This Angelica dahurica is really straightforward!
How come I never noticed this side of her before?
"Haha, since that's the case, then you can continue to be my driver. You'll get five times the salary."
Chen Le said with a smile.
Su Xi laughed as well, handing the car keys to Bai Zhi.
"Then I'll leave the driving to you, Miss Baizhi."
Bai Zhi took the car keys and nodded solemnly:
"Don't worry, Miss Su, I will make sure you get home safely."
Xin Xin also stretched out her little hand and waved at Bai Zhi:
Sister Baizhi, it's time for us to go home!
"Alright, Miss Xin Xin, let's set off now."
Bai Zhi responded with a smile.
It seems that Baizhi and Xinxin had a good time yesterday.
Chen Le had reason to suspect that it was his woman's charm that made Bai Zhi, such a cold-faced girl, ask to work overtime.
Chen Le, carrying Xin Xin, followed Bai Zhi and Su Xi towards the elevator.
The last vestige of doubt in his heart vanished.
Since Bai Zhi is here, let her be his driver for a few days. He also has some things to arrange.
As for the Xiang family...
A cold glint flashed in Chen Le's eyes.
He wanted to see what other tricks the Xiang family could pull!
A few minutes later.
Chen Le and his family then returned to their residential community.
But as soon as Chen Le got out of the car, he saw a row of cars parked outside his villa in the distance!
His premonition came true!
This important person who has arrived certainly has quite the grand entourage!
Chen Le narrowed his eyes; he had already guessed who the other person was.
The Xiang family has finally arrived!
Chen Le remained expressionless, gently patted Xin Xin's back, and whispered instructions to Su Xi:
"You all get off the bus and go home first. I want to have a good talk with this important person."
Su Xi looked at the rows of cars outside, her delicate brows furrowing slightly, a hint of worry in her eyes:
"Will they attack you?"
Chen Le chuckled lightly, his expression confident:
"Don't worry, he won't dare to lay a hand on me right now."
The Xiang family doesn't dare to completely break off relations yet.
