Gu Zhixi's hands and feet went weak with nerves, and she immediately lowered her voice to Lu Qixi, "Miss Lu, could you do me a favor?"
"Hmm?" Lu Qixi smiled and looked at her.
"Could you please take Xiaobao home? I'll come to pick him up later," Zhixi hurriedly said, her peripheral vision catching the man's figure drawing nearer, her heart almost leaping out of her chest in fright.
Seeing her nervous expression, Lu Qixi made up her mind in a second, "No problem, I really like Xiaobao."
With that, she smiled and turned to the little guy, "Xiaobao, do you want to come to my place to play for a while?"
Xiaobao nodded enthusiastically, his face beaming with happiness.
Lu Qixi smiled and patted his head, then told Zhixi, "I live at number 17, just come to find me later."
Having said that, she pulled the scarf back up, put on her sunglasses, and left with Xiaobao in her arms.
