Chapter 1083: Can’t Stay
Liu Manhong shook her head speechlessly, but also made up her mind that she would not have more interactions with Lu Xiaohang.
Although he was the type of person she liked, he was toxic!
She was not a teenage girl! Could she really give up everything for love?
For her, her own safety and health were the most important. As for the rest, it was all meaningless.
Lu Xiaohang was good, but he was toxic. She’d be hurt if she got close to him!
Lu Xiaohang, who was found to be “toxic,” followed Xia Xibei and the others out.
“Mr. Qiao, Miss Xia. Can I talk to you for a moment?”
Lu Xiaohang seemed serious.
“Alright.”
Xia Xibei and Qiao Yanjue looked at each other and both nodded their heads.
They were curious to know what Lu Xiaohang had come over for.
Was it really for Liu Manhong?
Back at Qiao Yanjue’s house, several people sat down at the table.
Xia Xibei even gave him a bottle of drink.
“Thanks.”
Lu Xiaohang took the drink and politely said thank you.
“I want to know, how did you and Sister Hong meet?” Qiao Yanjue started the conversation.
Qiao Yanjue did not have many relatives. He was not close to people on his father’s side, and there was only Sister Hong on his mother’s side.
Therefore, Sister Hong was very special to him.
Although Sister Hong was his elder, in his opinion, Sister Hong was rather like his junior and meant to be protected.
He was worried when Sister Hong suddenly had a car accident before, and now there was this Lu Xiaohang. How could he not worry?
“Also, what is your relations.h.i.+p with Lu Jinghong?” Xia Xibei added.
Lu Xiaohang… Lu Jinghong…
Two people with the same surname appearing at the same time. It would be strange if there was no connection.
Looking at the two people gazing at him, Lu Xiaohang also had a rare sense of being pressured.
It felt as if he was facing his parents-in-law.
“Lu Jinghong is my aunt. Sister Hong was in trouble this time because of me.”
When these words came out, Qiao Yanjue’s jaw tightened and his eyes were slightly cold, “You’re related?”
Xia Xibei’s reaction was not much better as she looked at Lu Xiaohang with a cold intent.
Lu Xiaohang was chagrined looking at the two people with the same cold att.i.tude.
He nodded, “Yes. My aunt was likely worried that I like Sister Hong, so…”
“That’s why she wanted to get rid of Sister Hong!” Xia Xibei completed the sentence.
She finally understood.
Lu Jinghong and Sister Hong were only connected via Zou Zheng.
However, Zou Zheng was so trashy that Sister Hong couldn’t possibly be interested in him anymore.
In this case, if Lu Jinghong still came to make trouble, she must really love Zou Zheng!
It turned out that it had nothing to do with Zou Zheng! It had to do with Lu Xiaohang!
Qiao Yanjue took Xia Xibei’s hand and did not let her react too much. He then looked at Lu Xiaohang.
“Then, you came here this time…”
“I came over this time to apologize and also to make amends.” Lu Xiaohang was very frank. “Moreover, my aunt and uncle have already been punished and will not cause trouble again.”
“Is that so?” Xia Xibei’s expression was still unkind.
“Yes,” Lu Xiaohang nodded. “Besides, didn’t you guys get what you wanted?”
When these words came out, Xia Xibei and Qiao Yanjue stiffened and reflexively looked at each other with panic in their eyes.
Then they quickly adjusted and looked at Lu Xiaohang with a bewildered expression.
“What are you trying to say?”
Lu Xiaohang, however, smiled pleasantly. Everything was clear.
“Well, then. I won’t talk about this.”
The couple’s hearts slightly sunk. He was not a naive character!
How could he have guessed that they were behind the scenes?!
