Chapter 912: Chapter 870: Remember to Miss Me
So, faced with Xiangsi’s casual question, Xing Chen chose to ignore it directly.
He pulled her over, holding her in his arms, and changed the subject.
"Did something happen to Fengchen?"
This was the crucial issue they needed to discuss next.
Ran Xiangsi didn’t pursue her previous question any further but paused for a moment before nodding, "Yes. A group of hackers took him, his whereabouts are unknown, and we can’t contact him."
Ran Xiangsi wasn’t sure about the specific situation; she could only find out after joining Uncle Kang and the others.
But even so, Ran Xiangsi was very worried.
If her master really met with an accident, then she...
Before Ran Xiangsi could continue thinking, Xing Chen said, "Hackers usually compete in the virtual world. This time it’s involved into real-world grudges; it surely won’t be simple."
"..." Ran Xiangsi really wanted to praise him for being so smart! "I heard that a group hired them to capture my master for revenge. They’re very cunning, hiding their tracks all the way. Uncle Kang says maybe my involvement can help."
Upon hearing this, Xing Chen again fell into contemplation for a moment.
If this really was the case, then only Ran Xiangsi could rescue Fengchen.
"Since the opposing party is dangerous, then your safety..."
Xing Chen frowned, not intending to let Ran Xiangsi participate in the action.
Ran Xiangsi knew he was worried about her, but this time she really had no choice but to go.
She interrupted him, wrapped her arms around his neck, leaned in so their foreheads touched, and lowered her voice.
"Honey, don’t worry about me, I will protect myself. You know, if my master is in trouble, I can’t just stand by and do nothing..."
She rarely called him ’honey.’
Only when acting coy or making mistakes did she call him that.
But this time, she acted coy, for Fengchen.
Xing Chen naturally knew Ran Xiangsi only had respect and gratitude for Fengchen, but he couldn’t help feeling jealous in his heart.
He wanted to be her only, for him and the kids to be her only.
Yet she was willing to leave him and the kids for Fengchen.
How could he not be jealous about this?
After a long silence, he couldn’t win against her.
He was the first to give in.
"Promise me, don’t get hurt, come back safe and sound."
Hearing him finally relent, Ran Xiangsi sighed lightly in her heart.
"Yes, I promise you."
She moved closer, hugging him.
Her slender fingers gently stroked his back, as if comforting him.
"While I’m away, you must take good care of yourself. As for the kids, just tell them I’m on vacation, otherwise they’ll worry."
"Eat regularly; don’t skip meals because of work. It’s bad for your stomach."
"Remember to miss me. No matter how pretty other women are out there, you can’t even glance at them!"
As she said this, Ran Xiangsi’s sense of possessiveness suddenly emerged.
Clenching her small fists, she fiercely threatened Xing Chen.
"I hear a lot of rich ladies have been waiting outside our house just to catch a glimpse of you lately!"
Just because Ran Xiangsi didn’t usually mention it doesn’t mean she wasn’t aware.
Xing Chen’s charm was still so strong... His return attracted quite a few dreamy young ladies.
The somewhat somber atmosphere was suddenly shattered by Ran Xiangsi’s playful remarks.
Xing Chen raised an eyebrow, squinting at her, "Afraid I’ll be snatched away? If you’re afraid, then hold on tight to me."
