Chapter 1066: Chapter 1063: Xiao Lizi and Baby Boy. Extra (24)

"Your senior seems quite concerned about you!"

When Bai Lu had hung up the phone and came back, Yan Xu said this out of the blue.

Bai Lu was somewhat astonished; after all, this was her private matter, and based on her understanding of Yan Xu, he was usually indifferent to other people’s affairs.

And at this moment, his look was equally indifferent, clearly, the remark was just an offhand comment.

"Not really, just a bored phone call to chat a bit..."

Unwilling to discuss Lu Qing Xu further, Bai Lu casually brushed it off and walked back to Little Princess to continue discussing the matter about apricots.

"There’s a preserved fruit shop near Branch Hospital that has delicious apricot dry, shall I buy you some?"

The little girl nodded, "Sure, snacking while reviewing helps with memory."

Yan Xu, who usually catered to his younger sister’s wishes, rarely questioned her words, "A genius girl needs to review?"

Little Princess glared at him, "Brother, of course I need to review, though I don’t pull all-nighters like others do."

A high school senior who had already mastered much of the college-level financial knowledge talking about reviewing was somewhat amusing.

Bai Lu didn’t pay attention to Little Princess and her jokes because her mobile phone received a message — it was from Lu Qingxu, sending her a movie seat selection chart for several nights in a row.

"Junior sister, see which day is convenient for you, just pick any show."

This sort of coercive behavior irritated Bai Lu.

The dates he had sent were all more than ten days away.

She scratched her head, thought for a moment, and then messaged Director Luo, "Master, you mentioned that research topic last time, I’ve considered it, count me in!"

Director Luo quickly replied with an "Okay," and she confidently replied to Lu Qingxu.

"Sorry, in a few days I will need to help Director Luo collect and organize data, regarding the topic discussed in the last meeting at Public Hospital, I’m afraid I won’t have time to watch movies for a while."

Originally, Director Luo had discussed this with her before; while she had planned to squeeze in some time for a vacation to spend with her parents and brother. Then her parents decided to go abroad for a vacation, and her brother went abroad for a competition. Her vacation days, having also spent a few with Yan Xu, she hadn’t thought about taking the rest.

"Sister!"

"Sister!"

Little Princess’s call brought Bai Lu back to reality.

She looked up, "What is it?"

She stuffed her phone back into her hoodie’s pocket and couldn’t be bothered with Lu Qingxu’s reaction anymore.

"Isn’t there a new movie released recently? Do you want to go see it?"

Bai Lu thought, could it be a coincidence?

"What movie?"

"The one about the end of the world, oh, I forgot the name..."

Bai Lu smiled, "Yeah, I know which one, do you want to go see it?"

Little Princess nodded, then pointed at her brother, "Brother wants to see it too!"

If Yan Xu wanted to watch, then Bai Lu really was helpless.

"But, your brother..."

"I know, you just said, my brother can’t stay in crowded and complex places for long."

"However..." Little Princess paused, glanced at her brother, seeing no reaction from him, she continued, "My brother said he has a friend who owns a mini cinema, it accommodates just dozens of people, usually used by family or friends, and the sanitary environment is absolutely fine..."

In this novel, Bai Lu had no doubts.

Because there was a mini cinema in her house.

She nodded, "If it’s a private cinema, there should be no problem..."

While speaking, she looked at Yan Xu and asked, "Do you want to go watch a movie?"

Yan Xu didn’t care much about his desire to watch, but seeing the longing in the little girl’s eyes, he couldn’t bear to disappoint her even if he wasn’t interested.

"Hmm..."

Bai Lu studied his look seriously. "Is your friend’s place far from here?"

Yan Xu shook his head. "Not far, just one street away."

Bai Lu thought for a moment, "Then let me check your blood pressure and heart rate again. If they are normal, we can go."

Yan Xu had no objections. As the caregiver was pushing him back inside, he picked up the phone and dialed out.

"Ning Ling, my sister and I will be at your place to watch a movie in half an hour, please arrange it."

"Yep, my sister and another friend, just the three of us!"

"Nonsense, enough talk, see you later!"

Little Girl, who had followed them back inside, asked curiously, "Brother, is that your good brother Ling?

Yan Xu hummed in response.

Little Girl giggled and nudged his shoulder, "You said there’s another friend, did Ling ask if it’s ’a girlfriend or not’?"

Yan Xu turned his head and glared at her. "Don’t talk nonsense!"

Little Girl, smiling mischievously, glanced at Bai Lu, "Sister, you don’t have a boyfriend, right?"

Bai Lu gave a wry smile; this little girl was too blatant in playing matchmaker.

"No, I am a devoted young person committed to the noble cause of medicine, and I scorn such private sentimentalities!"

Bai Lu’s statement elicited a scoff from Little Girl.

Sitting in the wheelchair, Yan Xu acted as if he hadn’t heard anything, his face expressionless as the caregiver pushed him into the bedroom.

Zhu Qianying, hearing that a few young people were going to Minister Ning’s house in the back street to watch a movie, instructed the butler to prepare some gifts, and also told the driver to buy a bunch of yellow bellflowers from the flower shop at the street corner to send over.

After Bai Lu had finished examining Yan Xu and heard Zhu Qianying’s instructions, she couldn’t help but feel ashamed.

No wonder people always called her a Little Princess in an ivory tower; she would never have thought to do these kinds of social niceties if Zhu Qianying hadn’t arranged them.

Feeling embarrassed, she walked over to Zhu Qianying, "Aunt Ying Zi, I’m lucky you’re here, otherwise, the three of us showing up so abruptly would have been quite rude."

Zhu Qianying pinched her face. "What’s rude about that? You young people don’t need to worry about these formalities. As it happens, I am somewhat acquainted with Mrs. Ning. I’ve been really busy these past few days and haven’t had the chance to visit. I’ll write a card to put in the flowers, you just let Ling Zi give it to his mom, and don’t worry about anything else. Just go enjoy the movie, don’t let these trivial matters spoil your fun."

Although Zhu Qianying had said this, Bai Lu still felt quite forward, but Zhu Qianying’s lack of blame was only due to her tolerance, and also because she was a guest.

The driver drove the three young people out, stopped as Zhu Qianying had instructed at the corner, and went inside to buy flowers, Bai Lu then asked Yan Xu, "Does your friend have any likes? Shall we buy a small gift along the way?"

Yan Xu looked at her strangely, "A rough guy, what gift to buy?"

Bai Lu oh-ed, and since Yan Xu had said so, she naturally did not insist further.

Little Girl, however, hearing about gifts, suddenly remembered something.

"Right, sister, you and my brother haven’t seen each other for so many years, what gift did you buy him for this reunion?"
