"You go out to eat, and you still have a simple meal here?"

Faced with Mist's inquiry, she glanced around cautiously and said in a low voice, "Will eating out affect your work?"

In fact, bluesea is not as safe as imagined. Moreover, the Zuo Su family knows about the existence of mist, so they are dissatisfied with being investigated.

"Let's go!" The man motioned to the door. Is there any difference between her asking this question and not asking it? Could it be that he could leave her here to hang out after she came?

Seeing this, Qian Xi happily followed his pace.

The restaurant mist picked was a bit unexpected for Qianxi. Naturally, it wasn't a high-end restaurant, but it wasn't a small street restaurant either.

This is a home-style private restaurant with multiple small private rooms. The privacy is particularly good and the decoration style is also very unique, which completely suits Qian Xi's wishes.

The two sat down facing each other, and Mist didn't even take the menu, so she just ordered the food.

"I'm very familiar with this place. Don't worry, you will love the food I ordered." He explained specifically. After all, he didn't let Qian Xi participate in the ordering, which was a bit rude.

"Don't worry about it so much. I'm just a freeloader. I'm not picky." She waved her hand and naturally understood what he meant.

"Do you want to drink?" Mist hesitated for a moment and then asked.

Qian Xi blinked her big eyes a few times and nodded fiercely.

The dishes were beautifully cooked, but in Qian Xi's eyes, they were just for filling her stomach. Mist poured her a glass of red wine and just looked at her quietly without asking anything.

For him, if Qian Xi came to see him, something must have happened. As for what it was, he would have to wait until she opened her mouth.

The colorful dishes seemed to increase people's appetite, but Qian Xi's food was tasteless. She took a few symbolic bites, and then started to drink with the wine glass in hand. She drank a glass of red wine in one gulp, and saw this

Mist frowned. Although this red wine wasn't the best, it wasn't bad either. If she drank it like this, it was indeed a waste of natural resources.

Anyway, it was open now, so he just let her go. Mist didn't say anything. He didn't want to waste the food on the table and just ate by himself.

After half a bottle of red wine, Qian Xi hugged the bottle and suddenly started crying. She didn't want to vent her tears, but she just kept crying silently.

He felt sorry for the food on the table, and when he saw Qian Xi crying like this, he couldn't remain indifferent! The chopsticks in his hand were finally put down, and a box of tissue paper was handed to Qian Xi.

She took out a few pieces of paper and wiped them on her face haphazardly.

"Are you done crying? Eat something when you're done. This dish is expensive." The man chuckled, then picked up his chopsticks and put some vegetables into her bowl.

Qian Xi stared blankly at the movements of his hands, tears welling up in her eyes, and she cried even harder.

Mist had no choice but to sigh deeply, finally spoke and got to the point.

"Is it Su Zian again?"

These three words became cold in his mouth. Before he saw her in the water world, she was still alive and kicking. How long had passed, it seemed like she had lost half her life.

When the name of the person was mentioned, Qian Xi stopped crying, smiled miserably, poured herself a full glass of wine, and drank it down her throat.

"Miss, this is red wine, not boiled water!" Mist couldn't help complaining. It's unnecessary emotional intelligence. What does he mean? The one who cleans up the mess on the battlefield?

Qian Xi didn't pay attention to him. The name just made her feel heartbroken, and the gap in her heart couldn't be filled.

As soon as a bottle of red wine was consumed by Qian Xi, her drunken look made people feel heartbroken. She lay on the table, looking at mist with tearful eyes, and her red lips moved slightly as she was about to speak.

Who could bear this? Mist felt that there was an injured little animal across from him. It was so pitiful and terrified and had nowhere to run.

"Stop talking, you still want wine, right?"

Mist didn't even give her a chance to speak. The meaning in her eyes had already been clearly seen.

She grinned and nodded at him.

"Stay still, I'll get the wine."

He said in a commanding tone, looking at Qian Xi who was crying and laughing for a while and shook his head. He left the private room and asked the waiter to get a beer. Anyway, for her, it was just wine, so why waste it?

He did not go back to the private room directly, but asked the restaurant owner for a cigarette and went to the corner by the door.

The sparks from the cigarette butt flickered brightly and dimly, and the mist made his expression even more confused.

He hadn't touched a cigarette for a long time, but today he felt an inexplicable urge to take a puff. But halfway through smoking, he threw the cigarette butt on the ground and crushed the sparks with his feet.

She cried so sadly that he always pretended to be indifferent, but deep down he couldn't bear it anymore. Was the girl too fragile, or was she too hurt?

He has almost never been involved in other people's disputes. Qian Xi was the first one. This simple and silly little thing actually attracted his attention. At the age of a flower, shouldn't he be happy? But why did she...

Sighing deeply again, he put aside his troubled emotions and returned to the private room.

There are empty bottles everywhere, how long has he been out...

Seeing him coming back, the girl looked at him aggrievedly and said, "Mist, this is so bitter!" She complained pitifully, as if even the drink was against her.

"If it feels bitter, we won't drink it." He directly took the half bottle of beer in front of Qian Xi, sat down next to her, and supported her swaying body.

"No! I still want to drink it. It's bitter now, but I'll feel better after drinking it."

He smiled silly at Mist and reached out to grab the half glass of wine. Mist didn't stop him and let her take it away.

Qian Xi just leaned half on the man's shoulder, drinking bottle after bottle, mumbling some words that he didn't understand.

The guests in the restaurant left one after another. The waiter knocked on the door politely and told him that it was closing. Mist responded and glanced down at Qian Xi.

He obviously had a wine glass in his hand, but he couldn't point his mouth correctly, and the beer spilled everywhere.

"Xiao Xi, it's getting late, let me take you home."

His magnetic voice rang in Qian Xi's ears. She sat up straight and said with great fear, "Don't send me home. Don't send me back. I finally escaped. I don't want to go back.

No one welcomes me!" She waved her hands at mist, taking a firm stand.

Escape? I thought she was just in a bad mood and wanted to go out to drink, but I didn't expect that she actually ran away from home! His eyes couldn't help but darken a little.

"Then I'll take you to the hotel!" He thought for a moment. It was so late and she was so resistant to going home. We couldn't let her sleep on the street!

"No, no! The check-in information will be checked! And I don't have any money..." As he said this, he curled up his mouth and started crying again.

Hearing what she said, Mist instantly felt that this matter was a big deal. He decisively opened Qian Xi's small backpack. Just as she said, there was nothing else except his ID and less than a small amount of cash...

Is she going to wander around with these things? Isn't she afraid of being abducted by traffickers?

Mist encountered such a puzzling question for the first time. He frowned and looked at the girl leaning against him again.

"Hey... let's go home!" He stood up and tried to help Qian Xi on his side.

The girl resisted and pushed him away, "I told you, I won't go home! You can't send me back! I won't feel comfortable going back! Just go away and leave me alone..." She burst into tears.

"Go back to my house!" Mist was helpless when facing the crying Qian Xi. As soon as these words fell, her previous crying stopped. There were still glistening tears on her eyelashes, and she looked at the man with doubt.

"Are you leaving? If you don't leave, I will be thrown on the road! Let your Su Zian come to you!"

Qian Xi didn't speak, but stretched out a hand towards mist. The man lost his temper instantly and pulled her up.

The evening breeze was slightly cool, and Qian Xi's head was shaking. She seemed to be still awake, and occasionally she could answer mist's questions. However, as she walked, she didn't know anything.

Facing Qian Xi, who was completely asleep, Mist took a lot of effort to carry her on his back.

She lay on his warm back and slept soundly, dreaming in his ears from time to time. The man carried her on his back and disappeared into the night step by step.
