Chapter 435 Confide to Su Xiaoxiao?

Su Xiaoxiao did not come back after she left the noodle house. She called back and said she would be attending a birthday party of her classmate.

In the Xiao mansion, after dinner, Yezi called Xiao Bing to her room. There was no one in the room. Yezi looked at Xiao Bing and said, “Brother Bing, are you free tonight?”

“Yes.” Those people had been detained by West Heaven King. Xiao Bing intended to go there tonight, but was not in a hurry since they were controlled by his own people. Xiao Bing said, grinning, “Are you going to do something to me tonight? Little Huarui is at home, it’s not convenient for us. No wonder you are asking me out alone.”

“Bullshit, what are you thinking of? Nobody wants to go out with you. What I mean that it is dangerous for Xiaoxiao, a little girl, to come home alone at night. Ask her where she is and go and pick her up!”

Xiao Bing looked at Yezi, asked, “Are you not jealous?”

Yezi hummed and said, “When we just started dating, I thought you were an honest person. Now, I know that you are good at attracting the attention of all the elegant young ladies.”

Xiao Bing touched his nose and said with a wry smile, “It’s not appropriate to describe me like this.”

Yezi giggled delicately, then said seriously, “Well, I believe you, so you just go.”

“Hmm.” Xiao Bing promised, took out his cell phone and looked at the time, saying, “I’ll pick her up in a moment, but it’s still early. I’m sure they will not be leaving so early. I’ll go later.”

“Then you need to make a phone call first and tell Xiaoxiao. OK, I’ll go out and play with Little Huarui and Maggie first. Don’t forget.”

Yezi went out. Xiao Bing knew that Yezi had gone out to avoid feeling embarrassed. He thought, “Alas, maybe I should seize this chance to have a talk with Xiaoxiao. It is a good opportunity now.”

Xiao Bing found Su Xiaoxiao’s phone number and called her. After several rings, Su Xiaoxiao’s voice came on the phone. “Hello, Brother Bing, is there any problem at home?”

“Oh, nothing,” Xiao Bing said in a hurry, “I feel worried that you will be coming back alone. Where are you? When will you be leaving? I’ll pick you up.”

“No, thank you… Brother Bing, I don’t want to bother you.”

Xiao Bing said, “It’s not a bother. Tell me.”

Su Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment and said, “We are at the Han Restaurant on the third street of Xuefu Road. They are still drinking now. I think we will leave only in another two hours.”

“OK, I’ll be there in a moment.”

Su Xiaoxiao, who had just finished talking with Xiao Bing in the restaurant, put her mobile phone in her bag and her heart pounded. “Brother Xiao still cares about me, so he is coming pick me up… But it’s impossible for us to be together. Alas, don’t think about it.”

Su Xiaoxiao felt a little emotionally disturbed. At this time, the people in the restaurant were all her classmates. Most of the students in her class were here. Seeing Su Xiaoxiao lost in thought, two girls immediately pulled her away. They kept saying, “Why are you lost in thought here? Come and have a drink.”

“I can’t drink.”

“Oh, it is such a happy occasion, you can’t be drinking less?”

“… Well.” Su Xiaoxiao was upset. Suddenly, she really wanted to drink two cups and more.

When Xiao Bing came to pick Su Xiaoxiao up, she was standing outside the restaurant and her face was flushed, because of the effects of the alcohol. In the past, she was like an ice goddess, but she had a kind of unique charm now. When Xiao Bing saw her, his heart could not help pounding for a moment.

Xiao Bing always saw some traces of Su Peiya in Su Xiaoxiao, but the two women were quite different. Su Peiya was as passionate as a phoenix in the fire, always full of enthusiasm, while Su Xiaoxiao always kept a distance from the outside world, not too cold but not warm either, which was more attractive.

If Su Peiya was a confidante for Xiao Bing, Su Xiaoxiao was a girl who needed to be protected. For the sake of Su Peiya, he would also protect her, even though Xiao Bing was attracted to her. He was inexplicably attracted to this kind of cold temperament.

Xiao Bing got out of the car and walked over. He smelled wine on Su Xiaoxiao’s breath. Then he asked, “Are you drunk?”

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head and said, “I want to drink more, but I am not drunk.”

These words struck Xiao Bing’s heart like a thunderbolt. Why was she doing this? What was the reason?

Xiao Bing understood a little, but he dared not think about it, because emotional affairs were often difficult to deal with. Xiao Bing was not a man who was not in touch with women. On the contrary, he had contact with too many women before, but those women did not need him to be responsible, and he would behave more casually in front of those women.

Xiao Bing sighed and asked, “Are you in a bad mood?”

“No.” Su Xiaoxiao smiled and slurred a little, “It’s my classmate’s birthday. I am very happy.”

“Well, let’s go. I’ll bring you home.”

Su Xiaoxiao got into Xiao Bing’s car, sat in the back seat, and fell asleep immediately. Xiao Bing initially planned to have a chat with Su Xiaoxiao, but seeing Su Xiaoxiao’s drunken state, he had to change his plan. However, Xiao Bing was relaxed.

Xiao Bing drove to the Xiao house without speaking. The car stopped at the door and Su Xiaoxiao woke up. She looked outside and asked, “We’re home already?”

“Yes, it’s late. Just go back to your room and have a good sleep.”

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Xiao Bing sitting in front of her and asked, “I’m feeling a bit dizzy. Can you accompany me to walk outside for a while?”

Xiao Bing smiled and said, “OK, I’ll walk with you.”

Xiao Bing pulled out the key. After getting out of the car, he opened the back door and helped Su Xiaoxiao to get out of the car.

Su Xiaoxiao was helped by Xiao Bing out of the car. She was happy and sad. For a while, she was confused and said with a forced smile, “Brother Bing, I’m not so drunk yet, so you don’t need to support me. You are always so gentle with Yezi, which makes me envy her.”

Xiao Bing said with a forced smile, “Well? You will meet a man who is gentle with you, sooner or later. He will treat you better than I treat Yezi.”

“Will it happen…” Su Xiaoxiao was a little confused. “It’s not easy to meet a man who will treat me well and for me to like him at the same time. Brother Bing, do you think a person can fall in love with two people in his life?”

Xiao Bing could not answer her. Fall in love with two people? Who was the other person? It must be Xiao Bing.

Su Xiaoxiao also seemed to realize that she had said something wrong. Because she was drunk, her mind was not as clear as usual. She could easily say something that she would not normally say. Su Xiaoxiao suddenly realized it and cut in. “It’s cool tonight and not so hot now. It’s good to take a walk and dispel the effects of the alcohol.”

Xiao Bing complained. “Since you are not good at drinking, you should drink less.”

“I know. I am happy.” Su Xiaoxiao’s tone unexpectedly took on a coquettish air that had never happened in the past. Even she was shocked. Their eyes made contact, and they avoided each other at the same time. Su Xiaoxiao blushed slightly.

With a cough, Xiao Bing pointed to the endless mountain road and said, “Let’s just stroll around.”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded slightly. The breeze brushed her face, played with her hair and made her feel slightly refreshed.

Su Xiaoxiao’s consciousness returned as her intoxication receded a little. She and Xiao Bing were walking slowly on the mountain road, side by side. Su Xiaoxiao clasped her hands and looked at the sky.

“Brother Bing, I came to live in the Xiao house recently, which makes me feel very happy. Sometimes I will think about how good it would be if my sister is still alive in the world…”

“Yes.” Thinking of Su Peiya, Xiao Bing and Su Xiaoxiao felt very sad. Xiao Bing’s eyes had a tinge of hatred. “I have not avenged Peiya’s death yet. My promise to you will be fulfilled one day.”

“I believe you, but I don’t really care about it now…”

Xiao Bing looked at Su Xiaoxiao in shock. Both of them stopped walking. Su Xiaoxiao also looked at Xiao Bing. Her eyes were full of worry, sadness, unwillingness, and relief. She sighed gently and said, “I always believe in you. I know you won’t let my sister die in vain. But after a long time, I have come to realize that even if you kill all the people who killed my sister, my sister can’t be brought back to life. However, if something happens to you… maybe there will more than one more person like me, living in pain and hatred in the world, such as Yezi, Little Huarui and Lil Bei…”

Su Xiaoxiao added another person in her heart. “such as me.”

Xiao Bing said with a serious face, “I will live well, and I will avenge her death. I used to be a soldier, a special soldier. We always have a belief that if we do something wrong, we must pay the price. If the law can’t let the other party pay the price, we will punish the other party by ourselves. Peiya is my confidante. I can’t let her die in vain. Xiaoxiao, you can be assured of that.”

Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes showed some anxiety and she sighed. “Though I want to seek revenge for her, I would prefer you to live well.”

“I promise you all.” Xiao Bing’s face showed a smile. When he noticed that Su Xiaoxiao cared for him so much, he thought of what Yezi had said to him before. A quick but painful solution was better than a gentle and lasting pain. Xiao Bing hardened his heart and said, “Xiaoxiao, I want to say something very important to you.”

When Su Xiaoxiao saw that Xiao Bing was so serious, her heart kept pounding. She started having wild thoughts. Then she lowered her head and said, “I’m listening…”

“I…” Xiao Bing was about to speak. Suddenly, a sharp light flashed in his eyes. He looked into the woods. His eyes were like a sharp blade. He snapped. “Who’s that?”
