Chapter 852 The Young Master of the Richest Family X Iceberg Star Commander 11
Bai Ci looked at Shen Xi with some surprise, and there was a touch of emotion in his eyes. He reached out to take the lunch box from Shen Xi's hand, and his fingertips inadvertently touched the back of Shen Xi's hand, conveying a touch of warmth.
"What is this?" Bai Ci asked softly, with a hint of curiosity and anticipation in his voice.
Shen Xi smiled slightly, slowly reached out and took Bai Ci's free hand, and said gently: "I made this myself. You said you were leaving at four in the morning last night to carry out a mission. I thought you must have been busy and had no time to eat properly, so I made a little and sent it to you."
Bai Ci's heart warmed up, and he held Shen Xi's hand tightly and nodded: "Thank you, Xixi."
He paused and asked cautiously, "Would you like to come in with me?"
There was a hint of tentativeness in Bai Ci's tone, as if he was a little afraid that Shen Xi would refuse. After all, Shen Xi had done so much for him, and he wanted more, and he was afraid that this would annoy Shen Xi.
Shen Xi looked at Bai Ci, his eyes full of tenderness. How could he not want to stay with Bai Ci for a while longer? But...
"But the guard just now didn't let me in," Shen Xi smiled helplessly, "He said that if you are not from the military base, you cannot enter the core area."
Bai Ci frowned, thought for a moment, and then said firmly: "It's okay, I'll take you in."
Shen Xi hesitated: "Will this cause you trouble?"
Bai Ci shook his head and said firmly: "No, I have the permission to go in. And family members can go in anyway."
Shen Xi learned the rules of the entire world from Wangcai, so how could he not know the rules here?
I just want him to admit in person that I am his relative.
"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Aci."
Bai Ci smiled slightly, took Shen Xi's hand and walked towards the base. The guard at the door saw Bai Ci and immediately stood at attention and saluted. Bai Ci nodded slightly and walked straight in with Shen Xi.
After entering the base, Bai Ci took Shen Xi to a quiet lounge. The environment here was elegant, and the base's garden could be seen from the window, with a pleasant view.
"How is it here?" Bai Ci asked.
"It's pretty good. I didn't expect that a military base that looks so strict from the outside would have such a beautiful place."
The two walked over to the table by the window.
Bai Ci placed the lunch box full of food on the table, then opened it, took out the food and placed it on the table.
The delicious dishes were spread out on the table, making people salivate. He couldn't help but smile and said, "It seems that I have a good meal today."
"I don't know what you like to eat, so I just made something casually. But I know you work hard, so I also made some chicken soup to nourish your body."
"Thank you, Xixi."
Shen Xi supported his head with his hands and looked at him with a smile: "Didn't you just say that I am your family member? There is no need to thank me for doing such a small thing."
In fact, Bai Ci was quite shy when he said that just now, and he spoke very quietly. He didn't expect that Shen Xi would bring it up again.
I became even more shy and my ears turned red.
Although he didn't reply to Shen Xi, Shen Xi was not angry at all. Instead, he looked at him cutely.
"Eat it quickly, it won't taste good if it gets cold."
"it is good."
Bai Ci did as he said. He had not eaten or rested since he received the task at four in the morning.
So he was still quite hungry now. He had eaten most of the dishes on the table, but Shen Xi had cooked a lot, so there was still some that he hadn't finished.
"Thank you, Xixi, it's really delicious." Bai Ci said sincerely. Although there was a hint of fatigue in his tone, his eyes were full of gratitude.
Shen Xi looked at him, his eyes full of tenderness: "Go lie down on the sofa for a while, you look exhausted."
Bai Ci wanted to refuse, but his body obeyed Shen Xi's arrangement. He stood up and walked to the sofa, slowly lying down. The soft sofa immediately wrapped around him, making him feel extremely comfortable.
Shen Xi squatted beside the sofa, stretched out his hand and gently tidied up Bai Ci's hair, and said gently: "Have a good rest for a while, I'll be here to watch over you."
Bai Ci felt warm in his heart, nodded, and closed his eyes. After a while, he fell into a deep sleep.
Shen Xi quietly looked at Bai Ci's sleeping face, his heart full of tenderness. He knew that Bai Ci was usually under great pressure at work and had heavy tasks, so it was not easy for him to sleep peacefully like this.
In order to prevent Bai Ci from sleeping uncomfortably, Shen Xi gently stood up, walked to the side, fetched a thin blanket, and carefully covered Bai Ci with it. Then, he returned to the sofa and squatted down.
Next to the sofa was a small cashmere carpet, which was soft and just right for sitting on. Shen Xi simply sat on the carpet, leaning against the sofa, and looked at Bai Ci quietly.
As time went by, Bai Ci's breathing gradually became steady and he slept soundly. As Shen Xi watched, his eyelids began to feel heavy. He tried to stay awake, but in the end he couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep on the sofa.
Before falling asleep, Shen Xi secretly reached out and gently held Bai Ci's hand, as if this would allow him to continue protecting him in his dreams.
The sunlight shines through the window onto the two of them, creating a peaceful and warm picture.
After an unknown amount of time, Bai Ci gradually woke up from his sleep. He opened his eyes and saw Shen Xi sleeping beside him, and his heart warmed.
He moved his fingers gently and found that Shen Xi's hand was still tightly holding his hand, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
