Chapter 408: Chapter 445
At last, he took out one of his black down coats.
His down coat was very long, past the knee, just reaching her ankle when she wore it.
He didn’t care whether it looked good on her or not, he just wished to wrap her as tightly as possible.
After all, they had to stand outside for several hours, so it was necessary to take proper measures to keep warm.
He made sure her hat and scarf were well in place, tightly secured, to also avoid anyone recognizing her.
After making all the preparations, he finally lifted her from the bed in one move, opened the door, and left.
From start to finish, she was drowsily manipulated by him, nestling in his arms.
It was still very dark in the alley at four in the morning.
Nestled in the warm down coat, she felt as cozy as if she were still in his blankets.
The previous night had brought snow, and a thick layer had accumulated on the ground of the alley. With each step he took, the snow underfoot made a slight crunching sound.
Lu Xiao held her as he walked out, each step exceptionally steady.
She felt incredibly secure, entirely reliant on him, not even knowing where she currently was.
Wen Xian looked slender in his arms, so light it felt as if he was holding a child.
After all, Captain Lu’s strength was not something ordinary people could match.
After leaving the alley, the streets already had cars merging in. This is Beijing, Always brightly lit with a constant flow of traffic, 24 hours a day.
Near Tiananmen Square, crowds were also gradually gathering, with many people already starting to line up.
Lu Xiao held her at the crosswalk, waiting for the green light, while people around also prepared to cross, their gazes frequently drifting towards them.
Especially one girl, who, seeing him holding a woman in his arms, couldn’t help but turn back and speak to her boyfriend, seemingly both envious and jealous:
“Look at that boyfriend, his girlfriend is still sleeping in his embrace. I had to struggle to wake you up this morning…”
Lu Xiao: “…”
When the green light came on, he didn’t listen to what they said anymore, just held her and left first.
Envy or jealousy aside, this was the woman he loved, so he would give her the best of everything.
Whether materially or emotionally, his woman, who else could he dote on if not her?
As they crossed the road, Lu Xiao carried her towards the subway entrance.
The security checks at Tiananmen Square were strict.
Especially at a moment like this for the flag-raising ceremony, they would go through the subway entrance, undergo a body check inside, and after passing the check, they would arrive at the flag-raising area.
When it was time for the check, Lu Xiao finally had to wake her up.
Wen Xian, groggily opening her eyes and seeing many people lining up beside her, thought she was still dreaming.
“Where, where is this…”
Her voice was tender and hoarse.
“Pfft…”
The people behind them couldn’t help but let out a chuckle upon hearing this.
This man really treated his girlfriend like a child.
Wen Xian: “…”
After completely waking up, she quickly slid down from his arms, her face slightly flushed, then went to wait for the check.
When the two of them came out again, Lu Xiao stretched out a large hand and said:
“Come here, it’s still early. I’ll hold you, you can sleep a bit more.”
Wen Xian’s face turned red. Glancing at the teasing of a young girl passing by, she stamped her foot and said playfully:
“What are you still holding me for, they’re all laughing at me.”
