Chapter 400 Take it for granted
Looking at the person coming outside the door, Li Xiang felt like he had found a life-saving straw. He hurriedly went up to him with a smile and took the luggage from Mr. Xie's hand.
"Nothing, we were just chatting... Are you ready? If you are, we should set off."
Looking at the attentive Li Xiang in front of him, Academician Xie did not think much about it. He just thought that the other party was kind enough to take care of him because of his old age.
"Everything is ready, let me introduce you..."
After saying that, Academician Xie turned sideways, revealing a young man behind him who was of the same age as Li Xiang and others.
"This is the last person on our trip, his name is Gu Qiming.
I am old, and Xiao Li is not young either, so it is convenient for us to have a young person in the team to take care of us.”
Hearing this, Gu Qiming hurriedly said modestly: "Mr. Xie, your words are too polite. It is only because of your care that I have the honor to participate in this exchange meeting."
After saying that, he looked at Li Xiang, smiled and stretched out his hand.
"Hello, I'm Gu Qiming, you can call me Xiao Gu or Qiming.
During this exchange meeting, I would like to trouble you to take good care of me..."
Li Xiang habitually secretly looked at the person in front of him, a peer of his age with neat short hair, a pair of exquisite glasses on his nose, and a calm and handsome aura.
But on the surface, he remained calm, stretched out his hand, shook it, and smiled politely.
"My name is Li Xiang, captain of the security team."
Li Xiang introduced himself briefly, glanced at his father who was following behind him, and said to the three people with a smile: "Since you are ready, let's set off now..."
Academician Xie replied without any airs: "No problem, I'll follow your arrangements..."
Seeing that the old man agreed, Li Xiang turned around and called his teammates to help with the luggage. Then a group of people went out and got on the business car waiting at the door.
As the car started slowly, on the way to the airport, the father and son, who had been sitting together, finally had some time to reminisce about the past.
Li Jun asked softly, "How are you doing recently?"
Li Xiang shrugged and replied nonchalantly, "It's the same as always. You know that."
After hearing Li Xiang's answer, Li Jun didn't know what to say for a moment.
He hadn't seen his son for a long time, so of course he missed him.
But when they actually met, even though he was happy and excited, he didn't know how to express his feelings to Li Xiang.
After a while, he just managed to say: "When you are alone outside, you must take good care of yourself..."
Li Xiang noticed his father's embarrassment and said jokingly, "Don't you know me? How could I make myself suffer?
Don't worry, I'm doing fine..."
Looking at Li Xiang who was boasting about himself, Li Jun couldn't help but think of what Li Xiang looked like when he was a child.
When Li Xiang was just a kid, he could clearly know what everyone's specialty was in most families in the compound.
He knew that no matter where his son went in the future, he would never starve...
Thinking of this, he unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth and said with a chuckle:
"I don't know who you took after? You've been thick-skinned since you were a child. No matter if you know someone in the compound or not, you can always go to their house for a meal..."
Hearing this, Li Xiang immediately made an excuse for his greed: "If I don't take the initiative, of course I won't get to know him."
Of course he couldn't tell his father that he was so greedy in this life because he was scared of hunger when he was trapped underground in his previous life.
He would be treated as a psychopath and thrown into a mental hospital on the spot for forced treatment.
But when he thought about his childhood, he couldn't help but laugh.
At that time, relying on his young age and cute appearance, he began to let himself go and unscrupulously became a gourmet in the compound...
As long as he knew the person, he would shamelessly go to their home to eat.
I didn’t know them, but after chatting with them for a few minutes, I was just as shameless and followed them home.
If the owner's cooking is not delicious, he will not go there a second time after visiting him once.
But if the food is delicious, he would often find various excuses to visit during mealtimes...
Seeing that he was young and sweet-spoken, and that he was the Li family's child, others would entertain him warmly.
Afterwards, my mother would come to the door and give some fruits or something like that to thank them for taking in her kid…
If you ask him about other things in the entire compound, he may not know much about them.
But if you ask who in the hospital is the best cook, then you have asked the right question, and he can give you a ranking on the spot!
As the father and son talked, they gradually got over their embarrassment.
Li Xiang also slowly told his father about the trivialities of life in Old A.
Time flew by as the two chatted until the business car they were riding in stopped at the door of the airport's special passage. The two then stopped communicating with a sense of unfulfilled desire.
Li Xiang and others took their luggage out of the car, showed their ID cards to the receptionist, and then went to the lounge under the guidance of the receptionist, waiting for the flight to arrive.
More than an hour later, the receptionist knocked on the door and took everyone through security check and boarded the plane to Country K.
After more than ten hours of flight, the group arrived in Country K safely.
From the moment the plane landed, Li Xiang and others put away their playful thoughts and quickly got into work mode.
After getting off the plane, the reception staff sent by the organizer was already waiting at the airport gate.
Academician Xie walked up to the visitor and exchanged a few words, then led everyone to get on the car to the hotel.
After arriving at the hotel, the receptionist checked us in and then said goodbye to everyone politely.
After he left, the group took the elevator up to the sixth floor where their rooms were located.
The organizers prepared 4 suites for them, and the rooms were not small, more than enough for their group of 9 people.
After the allocation, Academician Xie decided to live in one room with Li Jun, while Gu Qiming and Li Jian's group A lived in the remaining three rooms.
After Li Xiang and others put their luggage back in the room, they were not in a hurry to pack up.
Instead, he took out a signal detector and checked everyone's room inside and out.
In the end, they actually found some little gadgets.
In Academician Xie's room, the members of the Lijian team placed the eavesdropping devices and hidden cameras they found in various rooms on the table in front of Academician Xie.
Seeing these things, no one was surprised at all, except Gu Qiming, who had an ugly look on his face and cursed on the spot.
"What the hell! What is this? Is this how they treat their guests?"
"Xiao Gu, calm down and don't get excited...
This may not be done by the organizer." Academician Xie, who was used to all this, sat there calmly, not looking angry at all.
