Chapter 40: Like Getting Caught Cheating

With that, she hung up directly, without even waiting for Huo Qi’s reply.

She carried her coat and bag, preparing to get out of the car.

She could not help but acknowledge, no matter what kind of person Huo Qi was, he really treated her quite well, never being stingy with spending money on her, and was meticulous in every way possible.

However, like what she mentioned just now, she just felt that they were not suitable for each other.

He had a superior family background, having been spoiled from young, being treated like a prince everywhere he went.

Meanwhile, no one knew better than she did, as to how much she had suffered to get to where she was right now.

Her birth family had caused unerasable bad memories for her, and everything she had, was exchanged from a miserable childhood.

Even if she was beaten to death, she never wanted to return to those days when she had to suffer brutal beatings just to ask for a mouthful of rice.

If she really lacked money, she might still consider it for survival.

However, she had allowed herself to become more powerful, just so that she would have more choices.

And not to compromise, for her entire life!

Wenxian opened the car door, looking at the cold man waiting for her, and took a deep breath.

…

Actually, she had stopped the car at the service area for a while in the morning. She went to the toilet, and when she came out, she saw Lu Xiao, with his expression ashen.

When he saw her, he glared aggressively at her, but did not even say a word to her.

He ignored her all morning, as if he had already given up on treating her.

She knew she was in the wrong, so became obedient after that, driving safely without him telling her.

Then.

The moment she got off the car, Lu Xiao, who had yet to cool down, turned to walk in another direction of the pedestrian street.

It was a tiny town, with a small city center. When they were on the way here, there was boundless grassland outside of the town.

The grassland this season had already changed from green to golden, and as the scorching sun hung on the sky, the grassland looked like a huge tapestry, presenting the thousands of miles under the blue dome of heaven.

Boundless land, countless yaks, with Tibetan sheeps spread across the grassland, painting an extremely stunning view.

After entering the town, there was an increase of low-rise bungalows, and there were more resident buildings closer towards the direction of the urban district.

When they arrived at the city center, they could even see one or two hotels that were well-known in the country.

“Lu Xiao, walk slower, I can’t catch up with you walking that fast.”

Wenxian held her Hermes bag in one hand, while wearing her coffee-colored windbreaker.

When Lu Xiao heard that, he stopped in his tracks, as if he was rather impatient.

However, he still slowed his walking speed down.

Wenxian did not bother about whether he was willing or not, when she caught up to him, she directly stuffed her bag and cell phone into his arms, “Help me hold it.”

Although it was the afternoon, they were still attacked by the dry and cold wind.

After she had worn her windbreaker and tightened the girdle, it instantly showed the outline of her CURVY waistline.

Lu Xiao, “…”

He looked away without a word.

Just as Wenxian was fondling her long hair, suddenly, buzzing sounds were heard——

Lu Xiao frowned instantly, looking down at her cell phone, which was in his hands.

“…”

The caller name on the screen wrote: Huo Qi.

One look could tell it was a man’s name.

Wenxian saw it too, she quivered, and immediately came up to take her cell phone, hanging up and throwing it in her pocket.

That behavior was as if she had been caught red-handed cheating by him!

She avoided his gaze, feeling guilty first.

Lu Xiao, “…?”

He did not say a word, as he stared at her.
