Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lu Xian: “…”
She must have owed her son in her past life!
Seeing that Lu Xian was dressed especially nicely today, Quan Jue’s tone sank again. “Are you going out?”
Lu Xian nodded.
“Are you going to see that man?” Quan Jue asked coldly.
Lu Xian knew who he was referring to. She nodded honestly. “Mr. Jing introduced me to a job. I’m going to apply for the job today.”
Mr. Jing?
Quan Jue’s smile turned even colder.
Quan Jingzhou didn’t even dare to reveal his true ident.i.ty when trying to get close to this woman.
“Aren’t you afraid that Ye Yichen will find out that you’re involved with other men?” Quan Jue looked at her mockingly.
He didn’t know when this woman would learn not to be fooled by men. Why did she continue to believe the words of those men who harbored evil intentions towards her?
Everyone knew what it meant to be once bitten, twice shy. But when it came to her, she was a complete fool.
“There’s nothing between me and Mr. Jing. Why should I be afraid of others knowing?” Lu Xian looked at Quan Jue very frankly.
The phone in her bag rang.
Taking it out, she saw a familiar number and pressed the answer b.u.t.ton.
“h.e.l.lo, Mr. Jing… you’re already outside? Alright, I’ll be right out.” Lu Xian made a farewell gesture to Quan Jue as she spoke on the phone and walked towards the door.
Quan Jue caught up to Lu Xian.
Walking out of the Xu family villa, Quan Jue immediately saw Quan Jingzhou’s car parked outside.
He was standing by the car.
His black coat vividly outlined the man’s cold and tough aura. Quan Jingzhou also saw Quan Jue following behind Lu Xian. His dark eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a dark emotion.
Lu Xian walked up to Quan Jingzhou and smiled innocently. “Have you been waiting for a long time?”
“No, I just arrived,” Quan Jingzhou replied gently.
Lu Xian turned around and glanced at Quan Jue. She said to Quan Jingzhou, “Mr. Jing, let me introduce you. This is my son, Quan Jue.”
After that, she looked at Quan Jingzhou nervously.
She looked about the same age as Quan Jue, so she was worried that Quan Jingzhou would not believe her.
Quan Jingzhou looked at Quan Jue and saw him turn to leave.
When Lu Xian saw that Quan Jue didn’t even bother to greet Quan Jingzhou and was going to leave just like that, helplessness flashed across her eyes. She said to Quan Jingzhou, “Mr. Jing, please don’t take offense. My son is rather aloof.”
Quan Jingzhou would naturally not pick a fight with Quan Jue.
His son had the same character as him.
Quan Jingzhou smiled and said, “It’s alright, let’s go.”
After they got into the car, Quan Jue sent him a message.
Quan Jingzhou opened it and saw that the message only contained four words.
—Know when to stop.
Ignoring Quan Jue, Quan Jingzhou threw his phone aside and started the car.

In Beitang Lie’s office.
After reading Zou Xingxing’s autopsy report, Chi Jiao asked him, “Have you informed her family?”
“I’ve already informed them. Zou Xingxing’s hometown is not in White City. It will be at least nighttime before her family can arrive here,” Beitang Lie replied.
Chi Jiao recalled that Zou Xingxing’s parents usually did not have time to take care of her. She also had a younger brother with a mental disability. Zou Xingxing was able to enter Xing Teng Academy because of her scholars.h.i.+p.. Her family was very poor.
