Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Walking out of the office building, Lu Haiqiao smoothed her long hair that had been messed up by the wind.

She stood on the spot and looked at the busy scene in front of her. Her expression gradually became desolate.

Feeling a little tired, Lu Haiqiao moved her sore ankle, took out her phone, and sent Xie Xuan a WeChat message.

She typed a few words in the text box. Feeling that it was inappropriate, she deleted it.

After typing a few more words, she didn’t like what she wrote and deleted it again.

After repeating this a few times, Lu Haiqiao was tired, so she chose an emoji and pressed send.

She wrote, “Yeah.”

There was an emoji on WeChat. Besides the little yellow face, there was a “Yeah” sign on both sides.

After waiting for a while, Xie Xuan didn’t reply.

Lu Haiqiao thought that he might be busy, so she didn’t mind. After stuffing her phone into her pocket, she walked slowly along the street.

She passed by a convenience store and went in to buy a bottle of mineral water. Then, she continued walking and drank as she walked.

By the time she finished the bottle of water, half an hour had passed.

Lu Haiqiao took out her phone and looked at it, but Xie Xuan still didn’t reply.

What the hell?

No matter how busy he was previously, he would reply when he had the time.

After some thought, she sent another emoji.

She said, “I understand. I’m a dispensable online friend.”

It was still a small yellow face, but the face was a little bigger. The drooping eyes and the corners of the mouth revealed a deep grievance.

After the message was sent, the word “Typing…” immediately appeared at the top of the screen.

However, it disappeared after a while, and the nickname appeared at the top of the dialog box again.

Lu Haiqiao waited patiently for a while.

After more than ten minutes, the last message in the chat box was still the emoji she had sent to Xie Xuan.

Lu Haiqiao was speechless.

Therefore, even though he saw the message, he deliberately didn’t reply.

Lu Haiqiao suppressed her anger and took a deep breath. Just as she was about to go home, a black S8 suddenly sped over from the intersection ahead. A few seconds later, it stopped steadily by the roadside.

The driver’s door opened, and Xie Xuan got out of the car.

“I rushed to see you as soon as I got off the plane. You’re accusing me of neglecting you. ”

Lu Haiqiao didn’t say anything. Instead, she tilted her head slightly and looked in the direction of the car.

“Did you drive here yourself?” Usually, Xie Da, Xie Er, and Xie San were the ones driving.

Hearing this, Xie Xuan leaned forward and stared at Lu Haiqiao with her cheeks puffed up. He couldn’t help but reach out and gently pinch the tip of her nose. “I’m here to see my girlfriend. Don’t you think it’s too much to bring so many third wheels?”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was the sound of a speeding engine. Not long after, three Audi S8s parked behind Xie Xuan’s car.

“Maybe they don’t think like that.” Lu Haiqiao lightened up and joked casually.

Xie Xuan didn’t know what to say.

“Didn’t I tell them to go back?!”

Lu Haiqiao withdrew her gaze from the three cars and looked up at Xie Xuan. “When did you come back?”

“An hour and a half ago.” Xie Xuan held her hand and gently pinched her soft fingers.

So he didn’t reply to her message just now because he was driving. Lu Haiqiao turned to look at the sign by the road. “By the way, how did you know I was here?”

As soon as she asked, she regretted it.

With Xie San “secretly” protecting her, it was easy for him to know where she was..
