"What?!" Xiao Ai exclaimed in surprise. She had just hung up the phone, so why was Su Xingbo here?
When he got closer, he realized it was Ai Haibara.
He sat next to Akemi, facing Ai, and looked at Akemi curiously, asking her a question.
"I thought something had happened to you. I was speeding the whole way here. I guess you'll get a lot of tickets on the way back."
Mingmei then realized that sending a message after connecting and hanging up was a code for emergency contact, and she quickly got up to apologize.
"I'm so sorry, I was so excited to see Shiho that I completely forgot about this."
He pushed her down and shook his head with a smile, "Silly girl, why are you in such a hurry? As long as you're alright, that's all that matters. I was worried that something might have happened to you. If you're alright, that's definitely the best outcome."
Hearing this, Mingmei felt relieved, hugged his arm, leaned on his shoulder, and felt very happy.
This is his man.
Akemi wasn't always this gentle and docile. She was willing to give everything for Shiho and had been running around without a fixed abode since childhood, always on the orders of the organization.
Although not a core member of the organization, he was still a peripheral member.
She often secretly wiped away tears in private, and it was when Su Xingbo saw her crying that he saw her.
That's how their relationship began.
After getting to know Su Xingbai, she gradually tempered her temper and became gentler.
Xiao Ai, who was sitting opposite, was about to take a sip of her coffee when she saw the two of them looking very affectionate and lovey-dovey.
His face instantly darkened.
Sure enough, nothing good ever came of Su Xingbai's appearance.
She reluctantly put down her coffee.
"Su Xingbo, can I go to my sister's house and spend some time with her?"
The meaning is already obvious.
You, Su Xingbo!
You're in the way, please leave quickly!
"Sure, I'll take you back," Su Xingbai said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Ai unconsciously tightened her grip on the spoon. Damn it!
After finishing their coffee, the three got into the car.
In the car, Su Xingbo started making phone calls one by one.
First it was Ayako, then Sonoko, then Ran, and finally Yukiko.
After making the call, we were almost at the villa.
Little did they know that Ai, sitting in the back seat, was giving them a strange look and whispering to Akemi.
"Sister, did you know about these things?"
“Mmm.” Mingmei nodded with a smile. After all, he was a ray of light and a beacon of salvation in her life. “He would tell me about every goal he had, and sometimes I would even give him advice.”
"Huh???" Xiao Ai was stunned; her older sister seemed to have become a completely different person.
Is this the eldest sister's tolerance level?
This question is a bit beyond her current level; she's still finding it a little hard to accept.
Akemi looked at Ai and shook her head, her gaze carrying a hint of amusement.
Sister, it's not that I'm heartless.
Soon, the car pulled into the parking space.
The three of them first went to the nearby farmers' market and bought a lot of vegetables, preparing to cook at home and have a small family reunion dinner.
After entering the house, Su Xingbai skillfully tied on an apron and went into the kitchen.
Ai and Akemi exchanged a glance, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes. "I didn't expect him to be able to cook," Ai muttered softly, while Akemi smiled silently.
Today, Akemi was dressed as usual: a pale yellow women's uniform with a matching knee-length skirt, flesh-colored pantyhose, and high heels.
She has the look of a sophisticated urban woman, which is exactly the kind of woman Su Xingbai likes.
When he first met Akemi Miyano, she was dressed similarly to what she is wearing now. He immediately took a liking to this girl who was squatting on the ground crying with tears streaming down her face.
Although it was viewed from behind, the front was clearly visible to be squeezed and deformed, a scale that warranted his intervention.
Combined with the clothes she's wearing, it becomes a uniform temptation.
Ai Haibara needs no introduction; without comparison, there's no harm done.
Soon, a delicious aroma wafted from the kitchen.
Su Xingbai served one exquisite dish after another to the table, saying, "Try my cooking."
Ai hesitated for a moment, then took a bite of the sushi. Her eyes lit up immediately; the taste was unexpectedly good.
Most importantly, it contains peanut butter, which makes it incredibly smooth.
After eating some other dishes, I discovered that, except for the beef which didn't have peanut butter, all the other dishes had peanut butter added to them to varying degrees.
She sensed something was off. If only one dish was present, she would consider it a pleasant surprise, but the absence of only one dish indicated a problem.
However, she wasn't thinking too much at the moment, but was instead absorbed in the delicious food on the table.
He abandoned his usual aloofness and started eating one bite after another, stuffing his mouth full like a groundhog's cheeks.
She had never eaten these dishes before, and she fell in love with them the first time she tried them.
Just kidding, Chinese cuisine is something you deserve to try!
Seeing this, Akemi couldn't help but tease and say, "Shiho, is there enough food? If not, I'll have Hoshiba make you two more, how about that?"
Ai nodded quickly at first, then realized what she was doing a moment later, shook her head, and ate all the food in her mouth.
"That's enough, the food is quite delicious, it tastes great."
Mingmei and Su Xingbo exchanged a smile. At Su Xingbo's signal, she got up and took out a bottle of Red Star Erguotou from the liquor cabinet, along with two glasses.
After opening the Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor), I filled both glasses to the brim.
Although Mingmei didn't understand why they were drinking such a strong liquor, and thought that softer drinks like red wine would be better in this situation, she unconditionally listened to Su Xingbai.
He handed one cup to Xiao Ai and the other to Su Xingbai.
There has to be one person at the dinner table who can't drink alcohol and has to stay sober.
Since someone would have to clean up after they finished eating, Mingmei didn't plan to drink any alcohol.
Akemi stared at Ai with a smile.
"Shiho, although your body has shrunk, you are still old enough to drink, so feel free to drink as much as you want."
"Xingbai usually doesn't drink this wine, but because you came, he allowed me to open a bottle and taste it."
Upon hearing this, Ai put down her chopsticks, picked up the cup on the table, sniffed it gently, and frowned.
"Sister, this doesn't taste like wine at all, it just tastes like alcohol!" At this moment, she even doubted her sense of smell. Does anyone actually like drinking alcohol?
She picked it up again, unsure of herself, and sniffed it. The strong smell of alcohol hit her, causing Ai to put the alcohol down again. Oh no, I mean the wine.
