The archery competition was the day before the Cheng family returned to Beijing.

"...Don't worry, with Xiaojiu and Zhan Sheng here, are you still worried that we will be lost?" Cheng Laozheng called his daughter, "It's just too troublesome Zhan Sheng..."

"Is he okay there?" Cheng Wenqiu asked.

"It's great. Xiaojiu took him out to play all day and left before dawn and returned until sunset."

Cheng Wenqiu nodded at ease.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Shiyuan glanced at his mother, "How is the eldest brother over there?"

"Your grandfather said Xiaojiu will be with him every day."

“…”

"Jin Weiwei and Yiyi are about to give birth. Your father called a few days ago and said he would take a break for a while. There is no news recently. I don't know if he can come back when the child is born."

Cheng Wenqiu talked, but Lu Shiyuan was thinking:

Someone relies on Ji Jiuxi's life-saving benefactor. This sign is probably easy to use everywhere. Not to mention grandparents, even the Ji family treats him as a guest of honor.

I just don’t know how my grandfather would feel if he knew that his little apprentice was stolen under his nose.

As someone who was "digated into a corner" by Li Chengcang, Lu Shiyuan sympathized with it even more -

Ji Xiao!

And Ji Xiao didn't have time to care about his sister at this time.

He was "heart talk" with his son.

Ji Senyan's children's shoes were knocked over by a sandbag, feeling embarrassed. The father even told him about his embarrassment and told his mother and grandparents that although he was young, he was very proud of his face and had ignored him for several days.

"Sen Sen, I bought you the cheese sticks you like!"

Ji Xiao coaxed him with a cheese stick, and the little guy stuck out his butt and ignored him at all.

"Baby, Dad is wrong and I will never talk about you everywhere again."

Ji Senyan hummed lightly:

"You're just a big mouth, hum—"

“…”

"The teacher said that the person behind the scenes are all bad people!"

Ji Xiao was speechless when he was choked. Yu Guang glanced at his wife not far away. She was laughing so hard that she leaned back and forth.

This is really my own daughter-in-law.

He seemed to understand how his son felt when he was laughed at.

The other side

After just three or two days of assault training, Ji Jiuxi's archery skills have made great progress, but tomorrow it will be an archery competition, so she will inevitably worry.

That night, Lu Zhansheng still went to her room to pick up the Internet.

She picked up the pharmacy book casually, but she was absent-minded and always looked at the person beside her from time to time.

He turned on the computer, lowered his head and lowered his eyes, and tapped on the keyboard. His fingers were long and his finger bones were obvious. When he was immersed in his sight, he heard Lu Zhansheng suddenly say: "You have been staring at me for five minutes."

“…”

Ji Jiuxi looked away in panic and cleared his throat, "What do you think of the current archery skills?"

"Well enough."

"Then do you think I can win tomorrow's game?"

Lu Zhansheng turned his head to look at her, "What do you think?"

According to her, the girl named Yangjin has been following her father to touch arrows since she was a child. Her archery skills are very good and she can often hit the bull's-eye.

Ji Jiuxi became a monk halfway through the journey, sharpening his guns in the face of battle, and comparing him with others.

"Is there really nothing I can do?" Ji Jiuxi couldn't stand her arrogance and always wanted to suffocate her spirit.

"There is definitely no way to fight with strength, but..."

"But what?"

Lu Zhansheng left the keyboard with his finger, and his index finger bent slightly, hooked her, signaling her to go over.

The two of them were working and studying at the same table, but the distance was not far. Ji Jiuxi supported the table with his elbow and came to him.

At that moment,

The distance between the two was instantly pulled in.

"There is still a method, that is..." Lu Zhansheng was too close to him, his breathing was warm and warm, as if there was a warm current, which instantly wrapped her ears.

Ji Jiuxi listened carefully, but the sound was too close.

Gentle and elegant, low.

Fighting with each other, causing trouble.

It makes half of the body soft.

As he expressed his thoughts and strategies, Ji Jiuxi's pupils trembled slightly. When she returned to her seat, it took a long time to say softly: "Mr. Lu, I finally believe in one sentence now."

"What?"

"Nine out of ten merchants and traitors."

"What about a businessman left?"

"It's my brother's kind of silly."

Lu Zhansheng looked at him and laughed softly. A good-looking person would look even better when he smiled, especially when he was staring at you, he would make people feel confused.

The next day

In the afternoon, after dinner, Mr. Cheng drank butter tea and leaned against the window to bask in the sun. He caught a glimpse of his little apprentice preparing for the competition. He was helpless: "Xiaojiu, you really want to participate in archery."

"I promised Uncle Lang Ga, Master, you really won't go?"

"I'm thin-skinned, so I won't be embarrassed."

“…”

"It's fine if you go by yourself, but you'll take Zhan Sheng together." Mr. Cheng was helpless.

"You and your teacher's wife are not there, can't I find a cheerleader for myself?"

The archery competition ended, and there was a bonfire party on the grassland, and there would be roasting lamb and cooking sweet tea. The two elders of the Cheng family did not stop Lu Zhansheng from going there, but also thought about letting him experience the local customs and culture.

"Didn't Zhan Sheng go to change his clothes? Why haven't he come out yet?"

Mr. Cheng has finished drinking a cup of butter tea.

As soon as the words were finished, one door was opened.

Lu Zhansheng, wearing a Tibetan robe, appeared.

A white stand-up collared top, paired with a navy blue-black robe, and a cotton and linen tassel belt with traditional Tibetan patterns around the waist. The hair seemed to be just fiddling with it for a few random strokes, lazy and casual.

Just changed his clothes, but he felt like he had changed his body.

The clothes full of exotic style were free and easy, as if they had hooked up a little wild thing in his bones...

As he looked at each other, Ji Jiuxi's heart suddenly tightened.

"It's not bad. This dress was worn by Dingbei before. I didn't take it away. I kept it all the time. I didn't expect you to wear it very well." Old Mrs. Cheng smiled, "It's a pity not to wear a Tibetan robe once."

Lu Zhansheng nodded.

"Okay, it's getting late, you and Xiaojiu are going out quickly."

Old Mrs. Cheng watched the two leave and sighed, "I am the one who is the one who is the one who is a gift from Dingbei. It's a pity that he is busy with work, so he just wore it once. Now, seeing Zhan Sheng put it on, I think of him again."

"Dingbei? What's there to think about?" Mr. Cheng hummed lightly.

"You don't miss your son-in-law at all?"

"He is busy with work, so what's the point of even if I miss him."

It is said that a son-in-law is half a son.

For the two elders of the Cheng family, Lu Dingbei was like his own son in their hearts.

However, because of the busy work and the places where they live are thousands of miles apart, parents will not always talk about their longing in order not to put pressure and psychological burden on their children.

Northwest, a military airport

With the roar of the engine, an aircraft was slowly landing and taxiing.
