Chapter 202 Mission: Fishing for an Ignorant Little Sister

Seeing her nervous look, Chu Xiao suddenly felt like teasing her.

"I'll kidnap you as a hostage so your boyfriend can come and rescue you, and then I can see him."

Hua Lan touched the blisters on her palm.

Boyfriend, it's my boyfriend again.

Does he really want her to have a boyfriend?

Hua Lan's nose tingled, and tears of grievance flowed down her cheeks.

She raised her tear-streaked face and said, "I don't need a man to live; I can manage on my own."

Why are you crying again?

It's only been half a year since we last met, and you're already crying so easily.

"Who said you're going to live off a man?"

Hua Lan angrily pointed at him, "You, it's you, you keep saying boyfriend, boyfriend."

Half a year has passed, and his temper has grown even more.

Chu Xiao: "Don't you have a boyfriend?"

Yes, I have it, are you satisfied now!

Chu Xiao frowned, losing his patience. "Do you have a boyfriend or not?"

"No, he's dead!"

Hua Lan regretted saying it as soon as she did.

The word "death" is too heavy, especially not for Chu Xiao.

His death meant mission failure, sacrifice, and that he would never see him again in this lifetime.

But then she thought, Chu Xiao isn't her boyfriend, so it's okay.

Chu Xiao didn't say anything more, he just stood in front of the car door, staring at her with his deep eyes.

Hua Lan felt uneasy and didn't dare to look at Chu Xiao. Was he angry too?

She admitted that what she had just said was a bit excessive.

If Chu Xiao is angry, she is willing to apologize.

During the stalemate, a series of "cooing sounds" rang out.

A long, drawn-out sound broke the silence.

Why did it have to bark at this time of day? It's so disappointing.

Hua Lan bit her lip, wishing she could find a dark place to hide.

"Get down, let's go eat." Chu Xiao pried her hand away and easily unfastened the safety buckle with a "click".

Hua Lan had been frying fries at a fast food restaurant all day and was now exhausted and hungry. She had no energy to play the "if the enemy doesn't move, I don't move" tactic with Chu Xiao.

The courage that Xiaoyue had built up was thwarted by the empty city strategy.

That's so unambitious.

Chu Xiao walked ahead and, while waiting for the elevator, saw her walking towards him with her head propped up, not even looking where she was going.

With that dim-witted look, he'd be helping someone count the money even if they were being sold out.

Someone this stupid would be eaten alive if thrown into the Chu family.

"Are you too hungry to walk?" Chu Xiao asked, reaching out to pull her arm.

The moment he touched her arm, he was still taken aback by its small circumference.

With so much fat on her face, how come her arms are so thin?

"No," Hua Lan said sullenly, still angry about her stomach 'surrendering'.

Chu Xiao, tall and imposing, leaned against the elevator handrail, standing behind Hua Lan with his arms crossed, staring blankly at the top of her head.

I hadn't seen her for more than half a year. She had lost some weight, but her temper had changed a lot.

Every time I saw him before, he was always smiling.

This time, however, he didn't give her a kind look at all.

As expected, she doesn't respect anyone unless they act as her backer.

The elevator doors opened, and Chu Xiao swiped the card he was holding in his palm to open the room door.

"Come in," Chu Xiao invited, stepping aside.

Hua Lan stood still, only glancing inside with her eyes.

The hotel room was different from what she had imagined.

It looks more like a house, with a black backpack on the shoe rack by the door.

Hua Lan glanced at Chu Xiao suspiciously, and when she saw that he was looking at her, she looked away.

Weren't we going to take her out to eat? What are you doing in the room?

Chu Xiao could tell what she was thinking just by looking at her eyes and her movements.

Chu Xiao inserted the access card back into the power outlet and went inside first.

"I'm on a mission and it's inconvenient for me to eat out, so I'll order the hotel service to bring your food here."

Hearing that he was on a mission, Hua Lan went in without hesitation, afraid that being a second too late would cause trouble for Chu Xiao.

The hotel has rooms, a kitchen, a huge balcony, and floor-to-ceiling windows. How is this any different from home?

"Is this the high-level business trip?" Hua Lan asked Chu Xiao curiously as she sat on the sofa.

Her father and mother were both ordinary soldiers. She had heard her mother say that the standard for business trips was 300 yuan per day, including food and lodging.

Everything before my eyes clearly costs more than three hundred yuan.

Chu Xiao raised an eyebrow. "My mission this time is to be a dashing and wealthy young man and pick up an innocent little sister."

Because it was a confidential matter, Hua Lan didn't dare to ask for details. However, the thought of Chu Xiao using his looks to seduce the younger sister made her feel very uncomfortable.

Hua Lan pouted, "No wonder you got such a nice room and a car."

Chu Xiao noticed her expression and said, "So after you finish eating, you need to ask your boyfriend to pick you up, otherwise if someone sees you, my mission will fail."

Since it concerned the mission, Hua Lan dared not be careless. "Then I'll leave now, while no one is paying attention."

After saying that, he got up and made to leave.

Chu Xiao pressed her back onto the sofa and handed her a hotel menu, saying, "This is your place, eat whatever you want."

"Is it really okay?" Hua Lan asked again to confirm.

"Stop arguing, I've been starving all day too."

As Chu Xiao spoke, he casually sat on the armrest of the sofa, placed his hands on the edge of the small table, and forced Hua Lan to look at the menu with him.

The sudden closeness was so intense that she could even smell his faint, indescribable scent, which carried a strong sense of aggression and a profound sense of security.

Hua Lan was held in his arms, her heart pounding so fast it seemed like atrial fibrillation; if an electrocardiogram were taken, it would definitely show a wavy pattern.

"Chicken feet with vinegar and pepper, do you like them? Want some?"

The warm breath fell on her ears, and Hua Lan felt as if her ears were burning, as if she could hear the booming sound of firewood burning in her grandmother's stove.

"What about Sichuan pepper sour soup fish?" Chu Xiao asked again.

I don't want to eat chicken feet, but I should at least eat my favorite fish.

Chu Xiao asked her twice but received no response, so he looked down in confusion.

Have your hearing deteriorated after half a year?

"Hua Lan!" Chu Xiao called out to her, raising his voice.

"What?" Hua Lan turned her head back to her senses.

Their lips touched.

Time, space, light...

Everything around us that moves or makes noise stops completely.

The two of them could only see each other's stunned expressions.

Hua Lan was the first to react and instinctively pulled back.

In a flash, Chu Xiao pressed his large hand against the back of her head, preventing her from backing down.

Hua Lan's almond-shaped eyes widened even more.

Suddenly, Chu Xiao smiled.

Before she could think any further, Chu Xiao released her.

His lips, which had just pressed against hers, smiled roguishly, a smile that was both mischievous and endearing.

"Um... what did you say you wanted to eat?" She glanced at the menu hastily, wanting to quickly move on from the matter.

Ironically, Chu Xiao seemed quite interested in kissing, asking, "Is it the same as when your boyfriend kisses you?"

"do not know."

Chu Xiao laughed, "Is it because you haven't kissed your ex-boyfriend that you don't know, or do you not have a boyfriend at all?"
