Chapter 24 Is beauty weak and harmless?

It was already dark when we returned to the village, and the sound of cars caused a few dogs to bark.

When we arrived at our residence, the originally brightly lit small villa was now dark.

Thanks to Yao Xiaotian who came specially to see him off, and then watched Zhao Hengsheng leave with his hands behind his back. Jiang Lingxi walked into the small villa with Lu Zhengzheng.

 After arriving in the living room, I turned on the lights first. The warm and bright light immediately dispelled the darkness just now.

Lu Zhengzheng put the bag aside and slumped on the sofa without wanting to get up.

 “Sister Xixi, I’m so tired!”

Jiang Lingxi calmly took two bottles of sponsored juice from the cabinet on the side and threw one bottle over. "If you are tired, go to bed early. Remember to rub your feet and calves before going to bed. We will continue running tomorrow."

Lu Zhengzheng nodded like he was pecking at rice. After taking a sip of juice, he took out his phone and was about to check the time when a video request popped up first.

She slapped her forehead and said, "It's over, Sister Xixi, I forgot to tell Sister Tong that we will be two days late before leaving."

In fact, I was walking around all day long, and Yao Xiaotian was the only one in charge of shooting. She had to help from time to time, and she was so busy that she forgot about the things she reported to Sister Tong.

“It’s over, it’s over, I have to be scolded by Sister Tong.”

Jiang Lingxi swallowed the juice in her mouth and opened her lips: "Take it."

 Lu Zhengzheng subconsciously clicked the connection button.

Tong Yue's voice came over immediately, her tone was a bit fiery if you listen carefully, "I've been busy and I haven't heard a single message, Lu Zhengzheng, why didn't you send your flight information? What time will I arrange for the driver to pick you up tomorrow?" Ah! Do you need me to remind you about such a simple thing?”

Jiang Lingxi took the mobile phone from Lu Zhengzheng, who had shrunk her shoulders due to being scolded, "Sister Tong, it's not that Zhengzheng hasn't sent it, it's that we haven't booked a flight ticket yet."

“I didn’t book a flight. What’s going on? The flight was canceled or there are no seats?”

“This public service video will be filmed for another two days. If everything goes well, we will go back the day after tomorrow.”

Tong Yue suddenly frowned, "Isn't it just a public service announcement? It can only take a few minutes at most, so why does it take so long to shoot?"

“There is a lot of material to be shot, and I agree.”

"But the coaches I have found for you have been arranged. You will be delayed for two days now. What will happen to the surprise training then? Although the next variety show is not your strong point, wait, it seems that you have no strong points, but We can’t completely mess it up!”

 “I’ve taken care of the training, and I won’t mess it up.”

"Okay, okay," Tong Yue waved her hands and gave in reluctantly, "You've already agreed. What else can I say? Come back as soon as you finish filming. Got it?"

 “Good night, Sister Tong.”

Lu Zhengzheng held the phone that came back and frowned: "Sister Xixi, this time it was indeed delayed. You can train for three more days at most when you get back."

 The key is what can be accomplished in three days of training!

 Jiang Lingxi raised her chin towards her, "I know, go to sleep."

Lu Zhengzheng stood up decisively and went to the bedroom obediently.

 Not long after, the lights in the villa dimmed again.

 At night, silence returned.

 Early the next morning, Jiang Lingxi got up as usual for a run. As soon as she went out, she saw the large vehicle of the program team parked on the roadside. The equipment seemed to have been installed.

Zhao Hengsheng saw her figure and got out of the car, "Not bad, I can still get up and run this early in the morning after running all day yesterday."

 “Everyone is ready to leave?”

“Well,” Zhao Hengsheng nodded, paused and then added, “You are doing well as you are now. Keep it up, and maybe we can work together again if we have the opportunity in the future.”

Jiang Lingxi’s lips curled up slightly, “Okay.”

The beauty smiles, just like the morning dew waiting for the sunset, and it dazzles the eyes of many people around her.

 Such a beautiful scene could be seen early in the morning. Zhao Hengsheng returned to the car in a good mood after saying hello.

Watching the bus leave, Jiang Lingxi stood there and simply warmed up and started running.

While running this time, I unknowingly came to the century-old tree I passed before.

The old trees are still lush, and the greenery from the branches seems to be dripping down in the next second.

 The old man and the young man under the tree are still as warm and harmonious as the last time we saw them.

Jiang Lingxi paused and said, "Good morning, old sir."

Xu Maochun was about to take his grandson home for breakfast. He turned his head and looked over, nodded lightly, and replied calmly: "Morning."

However, the face of the little guy he was holding looked a little surprised and a little confused. He followed his grandfather and poked his head curiously: "Pretty sister, why didn't you leave? Did they leave you behind?" Jiang Lingxi shook her head and replied seriously: "I still have some work to finish, so I have to leave later."

“Oh, I understand, you, like me, haven’t finished the assigned homework yet.”

Facing the child’s eyes that said, “We are both connected by the same fate,” Jiang Lingxi said, “...it can be understood that way.”

Xu Maochun tugged at his grandson.

It's a pity that the child who has always been obedient seems to have roots under his feet and refuses to leave.

“Beautiful sister, you performed beautifully that day. I don’t think anyone in the troupe performed as well as you.”

“Oh, you went to see it that day too?”

“Yeah, yeah, I went with grandpa, and I applauded you, and my palms turned red.”

 “Thank you.”

 Xu Maochun's heart moved when his grandson reminded him.

He hesitated for a moment but couldn't help but ask: "I think it's quite difficult for you to do tricks with your physique. How did you last for several minutes that day?"

“The old man has a keen eye,” Jiang Lingxi didn’t expect anyone to ask her about this. She was stunned for a moment before replying, “I just used some skills that I can borrow from.”

 There is nothing that cannot be said.

"Yes, it's rare to see young people master this kind of skill nowadays." Xu Maochun looked at the little girl in front of him for a moment, "Well, we are destined to be together. If you are not in a hurry, I can give you a pulse."

"Fumai?" Jiang Lingxi didn't expect that she had already met the owner before she came to seek medical treatment. "Is the old gentleman's surname Xu?"

Xu Maochun thought that the news that he was cultivating here would be found out by someone who was interested. He frowned and asked, "Do you know me?"

Jiang Lingxi nodded and replied calmly: "Two days ago, an aunt at the head of the village saw that I was weak, so she revealed to me that there was an old Chinese medicine doctor from the imperial capital living in their village, and suggested that I go over and have a look. I originally wanted to finish my work. I went to visit again, but I didn’t expect to meet Mr. Xu twice. Mr. Lao helped me take my pulse.”

A few minutes later.

Jiang Lingxi followed her grandfather and grandson into the elegant courtyard with white walls and gray tiles.

There was another person in the courtyard. When they entered, he was taking a plate of steamed buns and putting them on the table in the courtyard.

Jiang Lingxi looked up and met a pair of eyes as sharp as blades.

With just one glance, she could confirm that this young man who looked like a cook was definitely very skilled, and he had even seen blood.

 Such a person is preparing breakfast in such a small courtyard and is so guarded against the arrival of strangers. It seems that Mr. Xu’s identity is not simple.

 “Mr. Xu, who is this?”

"I picked up a patient on the way back from practicing Tai Chi." Xu Maochun replied casually, letting go of his grandson's hand, "Xingxing, you have dinner with Wei Ke first. Girl, come with me."

Jiang Lingxi raised her heels and walked past the young man named Wei Ke as if by accident. She noticed that the man's breathing paused suddenly and his whole body became tense for a moment.

She really does have extraordinary intuition, even though she already looks so harmless.

“Weike, your beautiful sister has entered the house with grandpa and you still look at me. Why didn’t you notice that you are so good before…”

Before the little guy was about to say the last word, Wei Ke covered his mouth and his red ears trembled slightly, "Classmate Xu Xingyuan, I remember there is no such person in the village."

Any stranger who appears in this village is someone he needs to be wary of.

“Of course my beautiful sister is not from the village, she is a big star. Who keeps you from going out? I don’t even know why.”

“But didn’t everyone from the program team leave today?”

“Only the beautiful sister is left, saying she still has unfinished work.” Xu Xingyuan said and sighed, “This is just as painful as me not finishing my homework.”

Weike: “…”

 He couldn't help but look again at the room where Mr. Xu usually used to treat the villagers.

 A beautiful and fragile star, he agrees.

 But he had reservations about saying it was harmless.

 He trusts his intuition!
