Chapter Ninety-Nine: Members of the Expedition

The last reunion dinner was naturally very rich, and a large table of dishes made Zhao Qi's family's big table almost unable to fit down.

"Xiao Qi, you have to take good care of yourself when you are outside." Zhao Mu raised his wine glass and touched Zhao Qi and said.

"Don't worry, Mom and Dad, I'll take good care of myself." Zhao Qi nodded and said affirmatively.

"If you're done with the inspection, come back and have a look, got it?" Song Xia also said on the side.

"Well, I'll come back if the inspection is over."

"I hope you won't be the only one to come back for the Chinese New Year next year." Zhao Mu said meaningfully.

"Well, let's talk about this again, it depends on the situation then." Zhao Qi naturally knew what Zhao Mu meant. There is no problem with bringing it back for the New Year, but whether to bring one back or two is more confusing.

……

After the family had dinner, Zhao Qi left the house, and Zhao Mu and Song Xia naturally knew Zhao Qi's whereabouts, so they didn't stop him.

Sneaked into Lacey's room, and as Zhao Qi expected, Lacey was already in her room.

"Sissi, I'm here." Entering Reese's room through the window, Zhao Qi said to Recy who was lying on the bed. But before the two could speak, the voice of Reese's mother came from outside.

"Sissi, don't you come out to watch TV? Today is the Lantern Festival. ”

"No, I'm a little uncomfortable, I'm going to get on the train tomorrow, so I'll rest first." Reese said outside.

"Then you should rest early, and if you feel wrong, tell your mother, and I'll take you to the hospital." Reese's mother asked with concern again.

"It's okay, just rest and rest."

"That's okay, call mom if you have something."

After a conversation, the room fell silent. And Lacey also jumped out of bed, how could there be a trace of illness.

"Big head, let's go." Lei Xi listened carefully in front of the door and then said to Zhao Qi.

"Good. Let's go. With that, he released the flying sword Moyu, and the two left Lacey's small room through the window.

"Sissi, if your mother comes in and sees you disappear, what do you think will happen to your mother?" Zhao Qi hugged Lei Xi from behind and said.

"No, I've been going to bed early these days, and they won't suspect it." Lei Xi turned her head and kissed Zhao Qi and replied.

Although Lei Xi will also leave the house tomorrow, Lei Xi is unwilling to leave with Zhao Qi, so the two agreed to get together tonight and not see each other again tomorrow morning to avoid being uncomfortable when they are separated.

The two of them spun around in the air with flying swords. Looking at the fireworks of the thousands of homes below, from time to time there were still a little fireworks exploding around the two of them, which startled Lacey to scream.

Looking at Lei Qian, who looked extremely happy in his arms, Zhao Qi couldn't help but think of Li Jiajia again, was he also thinking about himself at this time?

"Big head, what are you thinking?" Feeling her lover's absent-mindedness, Reese asked strangely.

"Nothing!" Looking at Lei Xi who was looking at him with big eyes, Zhao Qi really didn't know how to tell Lei Xi about it.

"Big head, do you have anything to worry about?" Recently inside. When Zhao Qi and Lei Xi stayed together, they always thought of Li Jiajia in the distance from time to time, so they were always stunned from time to time, which made Lei Xi faintly aware of this.

"I ......" Looking at Lei Xi in his arms, Zhao Qi really didn't know where to start.

"Big head. Tell me about it. Maybe I can help you figure out how? Lei Qian, who thought Zhao Qi was worried about something, smiled mischievously.

Looking at Lei Xi's smile, Zhao Qi's heart ached, no matter how he explained, he couldn't justify himself. After thinking about it carefully.

"It's nothing, it's just for this expedition." After smiling reluctantly, Zhao Qi still didn't say anything about Li Jiajia. However, Lei Xi could also see that Zhao Qi's mouth was wrong, she was smart and didn't say anything, and her hands holding Zhao Qi tightened again.

……

The next morning, Zhao Qi did not alarm his parents, who were still asleep, and left the house with a flying sword after leaving a note on the table.

Zhao Qi's first stop was Hong Kong, China, from which he took a plane to the United Kingdom, just like his first time leaving home. Although Zhao Qi's flying sword can go to the UK faster, in order not to make people suspicious, Zhao Qi also flew to the UK in accordance with legal procedures.

Hong Kong is still so prosperous, but Zhao Qi, who is short of time, has no time to go around, as soon as he arrived in Hong Kong, he came to the airport and boarded the plane that he had already bought a plane ticket.

At about two o'clock in the afternoon, the plane finally arrived in the UK.

"Lily, I've arrived in London, where do you meet now?" As soon as Zhao Qi got off the plane, he found a pay phone and called Lily.

"You're really fast, you're waiting at the airport, I'll be there right away." After Lily finished speaking, she hung up the phone, and Zhao Qi had to wait at the airport as Lily instructed.

Ten minutes later, an extremely cool Mercedes-Benz sports car stopped next to Zhao Qi, who was waiting outside the airport, with a fluttering tail flick.

"Come on, why are you stunned?" Lily, who was wearing a pair of black sunglasses, said to Zhao Qi with a smile.

"It's so dazzling, I almost didn't recognize it." Zhao Qi smiled faintly, opened the co-pilot's door and got in.

"You're still the same, you haven't taken any luggage." Lily looked at Zhao Qi, who was only wearing a set of clothes, and said.

"I haven't changed, but you're almost unrecognizable, what? Did escaping death make you look new from the inside out? Zhao Qi looked at Lily next to him and quipped.

Today's Lily is no longer the sporty dress she used to be, but like a young lady, giving people a sense of grace and generosity.

After listening to Zhao Qi's words, Lily's face with sunglasses showed a hint of blush.

"It's just a different way of dressing, it's not a big deal. But you've had some trouble since you came today. Lily turned her head and said with a strange expression.

"Huh? What's the trouble? Zhao Qi asked curiously.

"Hehe, you'll know when you get there." Lily didn't explain, and after a faint smile, the Mercedes sped up again and drove towards the Natural History Museum in London.

The Natural History Museum in London is still the same, and Zhao Qi followed Lily into Professor Charles's office and found that there were a lot of fresh faces inside.

"Haha, Qi you're finally here." Professor Charles is still the same, and as soon as he saw Zhao Qi, he came up with a bear hug.

"Is this Mr. Zhao Qi of China? I didn't expect you to come so early, if you don't come again, we may have to go to China to invite you. After greeting Professor Charles, Zhao Qi heard an unfriendly voice coming from the side.

Zhao Qi turned his head and saw that this was a handsome British man, more than one meter tall, with long hair like an artist and a suit, he was considered a handsome British guy who was very perfect in appearance, but from his words, Zhao Qi heard a trace of hostility.

"Today is the last day before departure, Zhao Qi is not late, David, you are just early." Lily, who was on the side, heard David's unfriendly words, so she spoke for Zhao Qi.

"Humph!" Seeing Lily help Zhao Qi speak, the hostility in David's eyes was even stronger, but he didn't say anything more, just let out a cold snort from his nose.

"How can this handsome English guy named David be so hostile to himself? Is it because I'm too late? Just when Zhao Qi was wondering about this question, he didn't notice that a white and pure middle-aged fat man on the other side looked at Zhao Qi's eyes and contracted, and he turned his head and didn't dare to look at Zhao Qi.

"Come on, Qi, I'll introduce you first." Professor Charles pulled Zhao Qi over and walked to the side of a middle-aged woman and said.

"This is an American geologist, Ms. Bonnie." The scientist, named Bonnie, smiled at Zhao Qi and held out his right hand.

"Listening to Lily talk about you every day, I hope everyone can have a pleasant journey."

"Thank you." Zhao Qi smiled and gently shook Ms. Bonnie's hand.

"Humph!" But at this moment, the handsome British guy named David next to him snorted again, which made Zhao Qi a little confused, and he didn't know how he provoked this again.

"This is a British historian, and I've been friends for many years, you can call him Duncan Sr." Charles pointed to another old man who looked almost indistinguishable from himself.

"Hello, just like Charles said, just call me old Duncan, haha, young man, you're so tall." Old Duncan patted Zhao Qi's shoulder and said with a smile.

"Hello, just call me Qi." For this old man, Zhao Qi liked it quite a lot, and said to him with a smile.

"This is David, you two are the two most handsome here." Next up is the David who keeps putting on a stinky face.

"Hello." Zhao Qi looked at this handsome guy with joy, anger and sorrow on his face, and he didn't have any bad feelings for him in his heart, and stretched out his right hand in a friendly way.

"Hello." looked at Lily, and then at Zhao Qi in front of him, David stiffly stretched out his right hand, and barely said hello to Zhao Qi.

After shaking hands here, a black and strong body turned in front of Zhao Qi, and he grabbed Zhao Qi's hand without waiting for Charles to speak.

"Hello Mr. Qi, I'm Quake, I heard Professor Charles say you, you know Chinese kung fu, right? Hopefully, when we have time, the two of us can have a fight. You must not refuse me, although I know that you Chinese are more humble, but in the hearts of warriors, you must always have the faith to move forward, so please be sure to agree to my request. I've already secured a basketball court outside, so if we can, we'll go later, shall we? ”

Looking at the black man in front of him who seemed to be talking about RAP, Zhao Qi was stunned for a long time and didn't react. (To be continued......)
