She came with the light

Chapter 148 Going Abroad

However, Lu Li had already said that he wanted to go back by himself. Cheng Xiaoxiao couldn't say anything else.

Lu Li has made up his mind and will not change it easily.

Cheng Xiaoxiao could only repeat over and over again, "If anything happens, don't forget to call me."

"Okay, I get it, don't worry." Lu Li agreed softly.

Only then did Cheng Xiaoxiao slowly feel less worried.

Cheng Xiaoxiao is always uneasy... She always feels like something is going to happen...

Cheng Xiaoxiao accompanied Lu Li and sat on this large sofa for a long time.

There was no extra conversation between the two of them, and Cheng Xiaoxiao just sat quietly beside Lu Li.

Cheng Xiaoxiao rarely saw Lu Li so silent.

Every time, Lu Li appeared in front of Cheng Xiaoxiao, he was confident, free and easy, dignified, and even a little arrogant.

Cheng Xiaoxiao looked at Lu Li's eyebrows, hidden in the darkness of light and shadow.

There was a sense of loss in Lu Li's cold eyes. Seeing Lu Li like this made Cheng Xiaoxiao's eyes hurt.

Lu Li curled up in the corner of the sofa, not saying a word.

Cheng Xiaoxiao knew that Lu Li was upset. She slowly approached Lu Li and hugged his back.

Cheng Xiaoxiao felt that Lu Li was suddenly stunned.

In a flash, a smile appeared in Lu Li's eyes, and that smile was indeed fragile and powerless.

Cheng Xiaoxiao's heart was about to be pulled out.

Cheng Xiaoxiao hugged Lu Li tightly and patted his back gently.

Cheng Xiaoxiao only heard Lu Li lower his voice and say, "You know? Since my mother passed away, no one has hugged me like this."

Lu Li's voice was full of loss and nostalgia...

Cheng Xiaoxiao was also stunned. She had never thought it would be like this.

This kind of Lu Li is so distressing...

Cheng Xiaoxiao felt very sad... very sad...

The two of them sat for a long time, and Lu Li finally said, "I'll go and pack my luggage."

Cheng Xiaoxiao accompanied Lu Li to the bedroom. Lu Li suddenly turned around and hugged Cheng Xiaoxiao.

Lu Li buried his head in Cheng Xiaoxiao's neck and murmured, "Don't go back tonight, okay?"

A hint of hesitation flashed across Cheng Xiaoxiao's eyes.

But then, Cheng Xiaoxiao nodded, "Okay, I'll stay with you tonight."

Lu Li then smiled fragilely.

Lu Li packed a few clothes in the bedroom casually. Cheng Xiaoxiao couldn't bear to watch it anymore. "Let me help you sort it out."

"Have you packed your suitcase? Why are you so casual?" Cheng Xiaoxiao asked back.

"Of course. After all, I have been abroad for so long." Lu Li said.

Cheng Xiaoxiao thought about it and realized that Lu Li was right. "Then why did you get so tidy?" Cheng Xiaoxiao was indeed puzzled.

Lu Li didn't take it seriously. "It's just luggage. Just pack it up and it'll be fine."

Cheng Xiaoxiao was somewhat speechless, but she felt that she had no way to refute it. It seemed that... it seemed that what Lu Li said made some sense.

Lu Li was still feeling a little depressed at the moment, and Cheng Xiaoxiao was not in a position to ask him about this matter at this time.

Among the difficulties Lu Li is currently facing, these are all small things that can be ignored.

Cheng Xiaoxiao squatted down silently and patiently sorted Lu Li's clothes. When Cheng Xiaoxiao was folding the clothes, she was very worried.

Cheng Xiaoxiao was worried that Lu Li wouldn't be able to sleep well there alone, and was also worried that something unexpected might happen.

That night, Lu Li and Cheng Xiaoxiao just slept together. They hugged each other, and Lu Li kissed Cheng Xiaoxiao softly.

The next morning, when Cheng Xiaoxiao got up, the seat next to her was empty.

Cheng Xiaoxiao stared at the empty room and the empty seat next to her, feeling a little lost.

Not long after, the aunt came and knocked on the door. She told Cheng Xiaoxiao that Mr. Lu's flight had already left early in the morning and would probably arrive soon.

The aunt also told Cheng Xiaoxiao not to worry, and that Mr. Lu was worried about Cheng Xiaoxiao, so he asked the aunt to wait until Cheng Xiaoxiao woke up before coming to tell her.

After listening to her aunt's words, Cheng Xiaoxiao felt a little better, but still felt a little disappointed.

These days, Lu Li has been basically with Cheng Xiaoxiao every day, and Cheng Xiaoxiao has long been accustomed to having Lu Li's company anytime and anywhere.

Cheng Xiaoxiao was a little uncomfortable with Lu Li's sudden departure. It was also because of Lu Li's sudden departure that Cheng Xiaoxiao realized how much she relied on Lu Li.

When Lu Li stayed with Cheng Xiaoxiao, Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't notice that after Lu Li left, Cheng Xiaoxiao actually began to miss Lu Li.

Lu Li just got on the plane...

Cheng Xiaoxiao couldn't stop missing Lu Li...

Cheng Xiaoxiao didn’t know how long Lu Li would stay abroad this time, but Cheng Xiaoxiao wanted to tell Lu Li that she missed him so much as soon as he came back.

It was at this moment of loss that Cheng Xiaoxiao finally understood her own feelings.

It turns out that she likes Lu Li so much, she actually loves Lu Li so much.

Although Cheng Xiaoxiao was worried about Lu Li who was thousands of miles away, she felt worried for Lu Li whenever she thought about the fact that Lu Li would have to deal with such a difficult problem when he returned this time.

After Lu Li got off the plane, he called his father directly and contacted a private detective to confirm the private detective's location.

Father Lu was surprised to receive a call from Lu Li. "Why did you come back so suddenly? And without a word?"

On the other end of the phone, facing Mr. Lu's surprise and joy, Lu Li was not happy at all.

This time when Lu Li came back, he had to deal with his stepmother's affairs. He wondered what his father would think after knowing the truth.

Lu Li came back suddenly, and it was not convenient for him to directly tell his father about the current situation on the phone. He planned to go home first, have a meal, and then tell his father about the situation.

When Lu Li got home, it was nearly four o'clock in the afternoon. His father asked the driver to pick up Lu Li. Lu Li had something on his mind, so he quickly said no and went back on his own.

After arriving home, Lu Li saw his stepmother busy in the kitchen. Lu Li looked at his stepmother's figure with mixed feelings.

Father Lu saw Lu Li and hurried out to greet him.

Father Lu hasn't seen Lu Li for a long time. In recent years, Lu Li rarely came back because of his mother's death and devoted himself to his career.

Father Lu looked at him and saw that Lu Li seemed to have grown taller and stronger. He was very happy to see Lu Li.

Father Lu saw Lu Li coming in and watching his stepmother busy at work. He said hurriedly, "Your mother started to get busy as soon as she knew you were coming back. She didn't let the aunt at home do anything and did everything herself."

Lu Li said nothing, and didn't want to respond to his father's words.

Father Lu thought that Lu Li and his stepmother were still a little unfamiliar, after all, she was not Lu Li's biological mother. He didn't say anything more.

"How is your career lately?" Father Lu asked kindly.

"Yeah. Pretty good." Lu Li said lightly.

Lu Li's stepmother was still shuttling between the living room and the kitchen, back and forth.

When the stepmother saw Lu Li looking at him, she smiled warmly at him, but Lu Li turned his head away and pretended not to see it.

"I also saw on the news that you have run the Wansheng Group very well. It is much better than the Wansheng Group before I went abroad." Father Lu was very pleased when he said this.

"You've worked hard these years." Father Lu looked at Lu Li with some emotion in his eyes. "My health is not good, and I have relied on your mother to take care of me these years. I can't help you much."

Lu Li said hurriedly, "The Wansheng Group is doing well now. There is nothing we need your help with. Just take care of your health."

Father Lu nodded with satisfaction. After not seeing Lu Li for so many years, Lu Li had grown up and matured a lot.

"Have you been living alone these years?" Father Lu asked cautiously.

Back then, Lu Li returned to China alone, and his father was worried. However, Wansheng Group always needed a successor, and his father was ill, so Lu Li had to take over the responsibility temporarily.

Fortunately, Lu Li has managed Wansheng Group very well over the years, and has lived up to the trust placed in him. He has also saved the jobs of so many workers in Wansheng Group.

"I found a girlfriend. You know this person." Lu Li's voice was still indifferent.
