In the afternoon, Xiao Tu accompanied Muto Junzai for a long time in Shanghai and only sent her back in the evening.
"Xiao Jun, take care. Junko, I will always wait for you."
Thinking of her reluctant gaze, his ears echoed with these infinitely tender words. Xiao Tu's heart was filled with gratitude. He wanted to hug this girl in his arms and love her dearly, but because of the group of bodyguards, he could only suppress this urge.
As for how to make Junko stay in Huaxia, he already had a preliminary plan. He could implement it after confirming some details. Once the plan was successful, Muto Shio would not have any thoughts of sending Muto Junko away in the short term.
For the next two days, Xiao Tu did not go to any special places or interact with anyone. He only went to the newspaper office to submit his manuscript every day, then went to the bookstore to read. While pretending to read, he kept thinking about his plan.
It wasn't until the morning of the third day that he arrived at the address Zhuang Xiaoman had given him.
"I didn't expect Mr. Xiao to still remember our agreement. Xiaoman thought that Mr. Xiao had forgotten.”Zhuang Xiaoman teased when she saw Xiao Tu.
"How would Xiao Tu dare to forget Miss Zhuang's appointment? Didn't you come over as soon as you were free?" Xiao Tu smiled at Zhuang Xiaoman. Then, under Wu Siyan's expectant gaze, he started to interpret " How Steel Was Tempered " for her.
Wu Siyan was listening very seriously. Her big eyes were fixed on Xiao Tu without blinking. Zhuang Xiaoman, on the other hand, did not seem to be interested in the contents of the book. However, her beautiful eyes were also staring at Xiao Tu, guarded and scrutinizing.
Two hours later, Xiao Tu looked at the time and stopped.""Alright, it's about time. Let's call it a day.”
Wu Siyan looked at Xiao Tu with admiration.""Mr. Xiao, I suddenly realized that you don't just have some knowledge of the Soviet language. You didn't pause at all when you translated it, as if you were looking at Chinese. I've seen people translate foreign languages before. Not only is it slow, but sometimes they even have to look up a lot of information.”
Xiao Tu smiled." Do you want me to boast that I'm proficient in these foreign languages?"”
Wu Siyan smiled, her face flushed.""Mr. Xiao, you're too humble. You're not boasting. You're really proficient.”
Xiao Tu chuckled and didn't comment. This Wu Siyan was about to become his fangirl.
"Alright, alright. If you continue to praise him, his tail will go up to the sky.”Zhuang Xiaoman interrupted them and pointed at the door." Mr. Xiao, since we're done here today, please go ahead."”
Damn it, bad woman, you're too bad. Will it kill me to stay for a while?
Xiao Tu rolled his eyes in his heart, but on the surface, he said to Wu Siyan,""Miss Wu, I still have something to do today. I'll come back in a few days.”
Wu Siyan's face was filled with reluctance.""Mr. Xiao, it's already noon. Why don't you stay for lunch?”
Xiao Tu shook his head. Miss Wu, Miss Zhuang, goodbye."
After saying that, he strode away without looking back. He had already achieved his goal, so he naturally would not stay any longer.
However, not long after he walked out of the door, a pleasant voice suddenly came from behind him."Mr. Xiao, please wait."
Xiao Tu stopped in his tracks when he heard that. He turned around and saw Zhuang Xiaoman walking towards him.
"Miss Zhuang, what's the matter?"
"Mr. Xiao, are you blaming Xiaoman for being unreasonable?”Zhuang Xiaoman came in front of Xiao Tu and asked him softly.
Xiao Tu nodded." There are indeed some, but it's understandable. After all, it's Miss Zhuang's duty. She can't be careless.”
"Oh? How did Mr. Xiao know that Xiaoman was doing her job?”Zhuang Xiaoman asked casually.
She was really a difficult person to deal with. Any flaw could be caught by her.
"Miss Zhuang, Xiao Tu is not a fool. With Miss Zhuang's current power and status, it can't be simple for her to follow a young lady every day, right? This Miss Wu must have a powerful background.”Fortunately, Xiao Tu's explanation was flawless.
"That's right." Zhuang Xiaoman nodded. That's why Xiaoman tried her best to avoid contact with you. If something bad happened and implicated Mr. Xiao, Xiaoman would feel bad.”
Was this a warning?
Xiao Tu narrowed his eyes and suddenly frowned as he whispered to her,""Miss Zhuang, since this mission is risky, why did you participate? Why don't I talk to Consul Muto and ask him to change your mission to a safer one?”
Zhuang Xiaoman was slightly stunned when she heard that. She looked straight at Xiao Tu.
After pausing for a moment, he lowered his head and smiled."Mr. Xiao, are you concerned about Xiaoman?”
"Yeah, what's so strange about it? Can't I care about you?" Xiao Tu was puzzled.
Zhuang Xiaoman stared at him for a while, then sighed softly."You don't understand."
As he spoke, he turned around and slowly left.
"Mr. Xiao, if there's nothing else, try to stay away from here.”
Looking at her back, Xiao Tu muttered,""How do you know I don't understand?”
