Love So Sweet

67 Almost Recognized Him

Zhang Li Xue scanned her surroundings and finally saw the people she was waiting for. She raised her hand and waved her hands at them.

“Younger Aunt! Uncle!”

The two of them seemed to have noticed her presence and began to walk over to her side.

Zhang Yu Ying left her husband’s side and pulled her niece into a hug. “Li Xue, have you been waiting for a long time?”

“Not that long.” Zhang Li Xue smiled as her aunt pulled away.

“That’s right, your grandparents send something for you and your brother,” Zhang Yu Ying said. “Later, remind me to give it to you.”

Zhang Li Xue led the couple to the vehicle and spoke, “Aunt, Uncle, where should we head over now? Are you going back to your place?”

“Just sent us back to our place first,” Zhang Yu Ying said. “I’m a little tired after that long flight.”

The aunt and niece walked at the front while Wei Jun Hao was pushing the trolley at the back. However, Wei Jun Hao did not seem to mind this situation.

.....

His gaze turned softer as she watched the two women chatting happily.

Wei Jun Hao had always known that his wife pampered her niece from the moment she was born. In the beginning, the husband and wife dreamt of having a daughter as well.

However, after raising the triplets, they decided that it would be too tiring to raise another child. There was no guarantee that they were going to have a daughter after this.

Zhang Yu Ying became closer to her niece and would always buy a lot of nice things for her.

As the three of them were walking toward the parking area, Zhang Yu Ying halted again.

When Zhang Li Xue saw that her aunt was no longer walking with her, she stopped on her track and saw that her aunt was staring at a spot. She followed her gaze and frowned. “Younger Aunt, what are you looking at?”

“It’s that handsome guy.” Zhang Yu Ying trailed off.

She could not shake off the feeling that she know this young man. However, she could not remember where had she seen him.

Could it be that he’s a celebrity?

Her instinct told her that he was not.

Zhang Li Xue shifted her gaze to her uncle, wondering if this man would be upset. The corner of her lips began to twitch when she noticed that her aunt was still looking in that direction.

“Younger Aunt...” There was a trace of helplessness in her tone.

Zhang Yu Ying snapped out of her trance when she could not see that man again. “No. I just thought that I saw someone familiar.”

The three of them finally arrived at the car. As Zhang Li Xue was helping to put their luggage in the cargo space, Wei Jun Hao walked over to his wife and raised his brow. “Why are you so interested in that young man? Is he really good-looking?”

Zhang Yu Ying seemed to realize that if she did not give a satisfactory answer, she might get herself into trouble.

She let out a cough and spoke, “I’ve told you. That man had a familiar face. I thought it was someone I know, but I can’t remember well.”

Wei Jun Hao did not seem to believe her.

“Hubby...” She held his arms and smiled coquettishly. “You’re the most good-looking person.”

Seeing that Zhang Li Xue was done with the luggage, Wei Jun Hao decided not to pursue this matter.

Zhang Yu Ying heaved a breath in relief. She turned to her niece and had a strange thought.

Why does it feel as if she had seen that young man with her niece before?

That was so strange.

Which boy would dare to get close to her niece? Her nephew and sons would beat any boy up before they could get close to Li Xue, alright?

Zhang Yu Ying shook her head to get that thought off her head. Perhaps she was thinking too much.

...

Meanwhile, Bai Qi helped his sister into the car seat before he walked into the driver’s seat. Because he was picking up Bai Xi Xi from the airport, Bai Qi had rented a car for her convenience.

As he sat down, Bai Qi heaved a faint sigh.

He could not help but recall his brief meeting with Zhang Li Xue’s auntie at the airport.

The moment he saw her, Bai Qi had quickly recognized that woman. Although she was older, that woman still looked the same as she did in the past.

Before he left for S Country to follow his family, it was that aunt who had brought Zhang Li Xue to see him one last time. Because of that, the two of them could say their goodbyes.

Bai Qi remembered that woman because of what she did.

He recalled the moment their gazes met and smiled.

It seemed that Zhang Li Xue’s aunt had almost recognized him.

“Brother?”

Bai Qi snapped out of his trance when he heard the little girl’s voice. He turned to her and patted the girl’s head. “Sorry. I was just thinking of something. Xi Xi, are you hungry”

The little girl put a hand on her stomach. “Un. A little hungry.”

“What do you like to eat?”

She pursed her lips to think. “Noodles. I like noodles.”

“Then, we’ll go and eat some noodles first. Then, I will take you back home, alright? I already cleaned up your room. I think you’re going to like it.”

The little girl nodded obediently.

Bai Qi drove the car out of the parking spot and entered the main road.

“Brother Bai Qi, when we get home, let’s call Auntie Jiang, alright? I wanted to talk to You You and tell them about the flight.”

“Alright. We’ll call them when we get home.” Bai smiled. “That’s right. Xi Xi, later, I will introduce you to Auntie Ji.”

“Who is Auntie Ji?”

“She’s my landlord. When I have to work at night, I will send you over to her place. So you have to be obedient and listen to her, alright?”

The little girl nodded. “Brother, I will listen to you. I’ll stay with Auntie Ji and listen to her.”

A determined look appeared on her face. Before she came, Auntie Jiang had reminded her to listen to her brother’s words well. Otherwise, the two of them might not be able to stay together. Her brother has been with her from the moment she was born. Bai Xi Xi wanted to stay close to him.

Now that her brother was working hard to support them both, she cannot make things difficult for him.
