Chapter 1492: Great to Have You (52)Long Xiaoxi immediately looked away, feeling as if a million daggers were piercing through her heart .
Recalling the past, she felt as if she had a blissful dream followed by a nightmare .
She stopped dreaming ever since she snapped back into reality at 14 years old .
Every room in the house had been renovated except hers .
Her room was still the same as it used to be when she was a child . It was spick and span and had a familiar aroma .
Long Xiaoxi drew the heavy curtains open to allow the sunlight to enter and light up the entire room . Her room used to belong to Long Wenlun . However, she requested for a swap in the past because the balcony in his room allowed her a clear view of the mansion opposite .
Mei Yangyang brought her her favorite childhood snacks and said, “Hurry and try these . You can’t get these abroad . ”
At the sight of the sweet snacks, she said, “Mommy, I haven’t had sugary snacks in a long time . ”
“That’s because you can’t get our local specialties overseas . ”
Not wishing to be a killjoy, Long Xiaoxi grabbed the snacks and began eating them slowly . The first person she asked about was Zhong Minhe .
“Mother, is Brother Minhe still living with us?”
“No, he moved away with his family a long time ago . However, we still paid for his tuition fees for university . He’s a very grateful child and would visit us during every festive occasion . He would ask about you whenever he visits . I heard that he’s become a voice actor and is working for a television series production unit right now . ”
“Do you have his mobile number?” Long Xiaoxi asked .
“Yes . ” Mei Yangyang took out her mobile phone and gave her Zhong Minhe’s mobile number . After saving his contact in her mobile phone, Long Xiaoxi proceeded to take a warm shower, change into a fresh set of clothes, and put on some makeup . She then headed downstairs for breakfast with her family .
This was the first time that the family of four was sitting together for a meal, ever since she left home at 14 years old .
She’d had a change of taste and no longer enjoyed eating the dishes that she used to love .
After breakfast, they sat on the couch and chatted with each other . Long Xiaoxi then recounted everything that happened when she was abroad and told them about her living conditions . Although the problems that she had faced were minute and trivial, her parents felt that she had suffered a great ton .
Their conversation lasted throughout the entire morning, leaving Long Xiaoxi with no time to even call Zhong Minhe .
Finally, she found the chance to sneak back into her own room using the excuse of being tired .
Staring at Zhong Minhe’s mobile number, Long Xiaoxi tapped on it and placed the mobile phone beside her ear .
The call went through but no one picked up .
After two more missed calls, Long Xiaoxi deduced that he must be busy at the moment .
She gave it some consideration and decided to look him up .
Long Xiaoxi asked her brother for the address of Zhong Minhe’s workplace . She then put on a rabbit fur beanie, a scarf, and a chestnut-colored coat before leaving the house .
She instructed the chauffeur to send her to Zhong Minhe’s workplace .
Upon arriving at her destination, Long Xiaoxi excused the chauffeur and walked toward the voice-dubbing studio .
“May I ask if Zhong Minhe is in?”
“Brother Zhong is still busy . You are?”
“I’m a friend of his . I tried to call him but he didn’t answer . Could you tell me which room he’s working in?” Long Xiaoxi asked . “Room 205 on the second floor . You may wait for him outside the door . ”
“Alright, thank you very much . ” Long Xiaoxi then made her way up the staircase and found room 205 .
She had no idea what Zhong Minhe looked like now . Throughout the past nine years that she had been abroad, she cut off all contact with the people in S Nation and did not pay attention to the news about S Nation, for she was afraid that she would be tempted to go home .
She continued to wait quietly outside the door for more than an hour .
A woman exited from the room and asked, “Who are you looking for?”
“Zhong Minhe . I’m a friend of his . ”
The woman scanned her from head to toe and yelled into the room, “Brother Zhong, your friend is waiting for you outside the room . ”
“Alright,” answered an alluring voice that was completely different from what Long Xiaoxi had remembered and imagined .
After all, one had to have a pleasant voice in order to become a voice actor .
She began to feel nervous all of a sudden and wondered if he could recognize her after not seeing her for so many years .
Long Xiaoxi stood rooted to the ground, and so did the woman, who kept staring at her instead of leaving .
“Why haven’t I seen you around before?”
“I’ve been abroad . I only came home today . ”
“Abroad?” A sullen expression formed on the woman’s face . Noticing her reaction, Long Xiaoxi asked in puzzlement, “Is there a problem?”
“No . Brother Zhong said that the girl he fancies is abroad . Surely he can’t be referring to you?”
Greatly taken aback, Long Xiaoxi answered, “I don’t think so . ”
As soon as the woman was about to say something, the door opened and Zhong Minhe exited .
Long Xiaoxi stared at him in astonishment . She wouldn’t have recognized him if she didn’t notice that he had a missing arm .
He looked completely different from her expectations .
Although only her eyes were revealed, Zhong Minhe could still recognize her . “Xiao… Xiaoxi?”
She pulled her scarf down to reveal the rest of her face . “Yes, Brother Minhe, I’m back . ”
Zhong Minhe teared up while staring at her . She had undoubtedly changed a lot .
Her chubby cheeks and figure were gone .
They did not remain speechless for long . Long Xiaoxi wrapped her arms around him tightly . “I’m sorry for not contacting you for so many years . ”
“Good that you’re back . I’ve been waiting for your return . ”
Upon exiting the studio, she grabbed his sleeve, just like she used to when she was younger . “That girl just now said that you fancy someone who’s overseas . Who is it?”
“You . Why? Are you doubting me?”Long Xiaoxi chuckled and said, “You must be kidding me . How can it be me?”
“Why should I do that? I’m being serious . Xiaoxi, I’ve been carrying a torch for you ever since we were children . I like how straightforward you are and how bubbly you are . I also like that you enjoyed playing with me all the time . I used to have an inferiority complex and never dared to express my feelings . However, I’ve become much more confident, and I must let you know how I feel about you now that you’re finally back . ”
It had never crossed Long Xiaoxi’s mind that she would receive a confession on the first day that she returned from abroad .
Caught by surprise, she smiled and said, “Brother Minhe, I’m very glad that you’ve become much more confident . You’ve become the ideal person that I had hoped for you to become . ”
“You’re changing the subject . ”
Long Xiaoxi grimaced and said, “What would you like to hear from me, then?”
Although they had not met in years, they did not feel distant or awkward at all .
“I’d like to hear you say that you’ll give me a chance . ”
“I’ll give you a chance,” she answered without hesitation .
