Chapter 484: 470, I just miss you_1
Jian Luo reached out, put on the earphones, and when he saw the man on the other side of the video, he felt a sudden lump in his throat.
Inside the car, the dim light shone on the man’s sharp profile, softening his normally cold features.
Bai Jue glanced at him, and walked in.
He wouldn’t be such a gooseberry.
Through the video, the two of them stared at each other, submerged in silence.
In the end, it was Black Jack who first broke the silence.
His deep blue eyes were filled with pain, his voice husky, “Didn’t I tell you to eat properly? Why have you lost so much weight?”
“I missed you.” Jian Luo’s eyes reddened slightly, his voice barely audible.
In the car, Black Jack’s blue eyes trembled, and his knuckles turned white as he held his phone.
This sentence, he used to hear from him frequently in their childhood, but it had been a long time since he had heard it, it seemed like a distant memory.
He curled his lips into a warm smile, “Luo Xiaobai, I also missed you.”
Thinking of how much he yearned to rush into the manor to see him, to hold him, to tie him to his side.
“Luo Xiaobai, don’t be afraid, I am always by your side, so take good care of yourself.” The man’s voice was cold but incredibly tender.
Jian Luo bit his lip and gave a firm nod.
“I’m not afraid, I just miss you.”
His voice, choked, tender, fell into Black Jack’s ears making his heart clench painfully.
His brows furrowed in tyrannical suppression, “Luo Xiaobai, I’m outside the manor right now. Even if I can’t get in, I’m at the closest place to you, understand?”
Hearing his words, a long-lost smile appeared on Jian Luo’s face.
“Mm.”
Seeing his smile, a faint arc formed at the corner of Black Jack’s mouth.
“Black Jack, my chocolate is almost finished.”
He was still as indulgent as ever, “Mm, I will get you some.”
“Alright.” Jian Luo’s bright as stars eyes formed crescents, his voice soft.
Black Jack said, “Luo Xiaobai, count down three seconds, I have a surprise for you.”
Jian Luo was a little stunned, he looked at him with confusion in his eyes, “Mm?”
“Look at the sky.” He said.
Before his voice fell, a loud bang suddenly echoed in the night.
“Bang-Bang–”
Jian Luo looked up, just in time to see the breathtaking fireworks blooming in the night sky, an array of colors illuminating the manor as bright as day.
The colored sparks exploded in the sky, breathtakingly beautiful, they invaded his vision without warning.
In that moment, all his worries were swept away, a radiant smile appearing on his face.
Over there, seeing his face full of smiles through the video, Black Jack’s heart finally landed.
As long as he was happy, that was enough.
In the room, Bai Jue heard the commotion and chuckled.
He looked at the fireworks in the night sky with a stunning glance.
With such a ruckus, Jian’s grandpa and Mo’s dad would probably notice something.
“Did you like it?” Black Jack asked, his voice laced with laughter.
Jian Luo nodded, “I loved it.”
“When the new year comes, I’ll take you to the fortress, I’ll light the fireworks just for you all night.” He promised.
“Mm.”
“Stop chatting, Grandpa Jian is probably coming.” Bai Jue interjected, running over.
Jian Luo quickly took off his earphones. Bai Jue simply turned off the video, put the phone back in his pocket, and the two ran inside, sitting down on the sofa.
“Take this, take this.”
Bai Jue grabbed the documents on the table, and handed them to Jian Luo.
As soon as he retracted his hand, the door was pushed open.
Old Mister Jian and Uncle Qin appeared at the doorway, their eyes scrutinizing the two of them.

“Grandpa!”
Jian Luo looked up at the person at the door and called out.
“What were you two talking about?” Seeing the documents in their hands, Old Mister Jian tested the waters.
Jian Luo calmly said, “The series of jewels I recently collaborated with JK International is about to launch, Bai Jue and I were discussing work.”
Bai Jue nodded in agreement.
“Did you two not see the fireworks just now?” Old Mister Jian asked.
Bai Jue offhandedly replied, “Perhaps some young folks were having fun and setting off fireworks. We’ve seen it a lot.”
Hearing that, Old Mister Jian glanced suspiciously at the two of them but didn’t pursue it.
“You two may proceed, I won’t disturb you.”
“Grandpa, goodnight.” Jian Luo obediently said.
As soon as the door closed, Jian Luo and Bai Jue took a sigh of relief and threw the documents to the side.
“Pfft–”
For some reason, Bai Jue suddenly burst into laughter.
“Jian Luo, don’t you feel like we’re back in our childhood?”
It was like they were doing something mischievous and the adults caught them red-handed.
After that firework show, Jian Luo was also in the mood to joke around.
“Yes, but back then, we always had Black Jack to cover for us.”
“Looks like somebody’s surprise has healed you.” Bai Jue teased.
Jian Luo’s ears turned red, and he kicked him.
“Get lost.”
Bai Jue laughed and collapsed onto the sofa.
He’s even blushing now.

“Buzz-Buzz–”
On the table, the phone vibrated.
Jian Qing didn’t lift her head, she reached out blindly for her phone.
She picked it up, had a cursory glance and answered the call.
“Xiya!”
“Honey, when are you guys coming back, I am about to die of boredom.” Xiya whined.
Jian Qing hooked her red lips, “Aren’t you good at finding your own fun?”
“There’s no fun without you guys.” Xiya said, “By the way, how are things between the handsome Luo brother and Black Jack?”
“Same as always.” She replied.
“It seems like the hurdle of Grandpa Jian is really hard to cross.”
“By the way, don’t you have a prenatal examination in a few days?” Jian Qing asked.
“Didn’t expect you to remember, I am so moved.” Xiya feigned exaggeration.
“Talk properly.”
Xiya said, “Oh, I forgot to tell you, the weather forecast says it’s going to snow in Beijing tomorrow, are you coming back?”
She has been best friends with her for years, she would never forget how much she hates snowy weather.
Snow?
She looked at the calendar on the table, the half-month deadline was tomorrow.
The day she and him had agreed upon had arrived, would he hurry back?
“Honey, are you listening?”
Xiya’s voice brought Jian Qing back to reality.
“Mm, I’m listening.”
“So, are you coming back? Or wait till the snow stops?” She asked.
“Not sure for now.”
“Ah-choo–”
Xiya sneezed, snuffling afterwards.
“Did you catch a cold?” Jian Qing asked concernedly.
“Probably caught it yesterday when I went to the supermarket, perhaps I was underdressed.” Xiya said.
“Don’t forget you’re pregnant, take good care of yourself.”
“Got it, my housekeeper.” Xiya joked, sending a ‘muah’ to her through the phone.
After chatting for a while, Jian Qing hung up the phone, her mood completely changed, she glanced around at the documents and lost interest.
After some contemplation, she reached for her laptop, her fingers flying across the keyboard rapidly.
