Chapter 313: Ordinary Friend
Thinking of this, Li Ting sighed regretfully.
He could not give her a gift or say anything. It was really uncomfortable!
Xing Jiuan’s heart trembled.
“Tell me, what did you call me?” Xing Jiuan asked.
“It was a long time ago. I’ve long forgotten about it,” Li Ting lied, but he did not look into Xing Jiuan’s eyes.
For some reason, when he met those eyes, he felt that lying was a sin.
Xing Jiuan could tell that he was lying, but she did not expose him.
Li Ting had never lied to her!
However, she had some guesses in her heart. Could it be that Li Ting had recalled some things from his previous life in his dream?
However, she was clearly the one who had been reborn. How could…
There were countless doubts that she could not figure out, and Xing Jiuan did not know where to start.
She could only take it one step at a time.
Li Ting walked out with her. They walked in the opposite direction and left quickly.
Huo Jinqi and Huo Jinyuan had been hiding in the dark. As they were far away and had practiced martial arts since they were young, they were not discovered by Xing Jiuan and the others.
Or maybe they did, but they didn’t care.
Xing Jiuan took out her cell phone and prepared to send Li Ting a photo. However, she realized that there were a few missed calls from the cell phone she had set silent.
It was all Lu Zhichen’s.
Xing Jiuan remained silent at that.
She felt a little guilty.
She felt that she had let Lu Zhichen down.
He must have been looking for her for a long time.
The earliest call had been half an hour ago.
Xing Jiuan hurriedly walked to the side to return the call.
“h.e.l.lo.”
“Jiuan, where are you?”
Lu Zhichen had gone in the wrong direction. He had also sent the people observing Huo Chulan to protect her. He did not expect to have lost her!
Although he knew that Xing Jiuan was very powerful, he could not help but be worried.
Not to mention, she did not even answer his calls.
“I’m sorry. My phone was silent just now,” Xing Jiuan apologized.
“I know.”
Lu Zhichen knew that when doing special work, the phone she carried would usually be silent or even switched off.
He was not surprised by Xing Jiuan’s words.
If he had not known about the urgent situation, he would not have called Xing Jiuan. This sound might have exposed Xing Jiuan.
But if he didn’t see her for half an hour, he would feel worried.
“However, there was no response for half an hour. I was very worried about you.” Lu Zhichen’s voice seemed to have relaxed a little.
“Thank you for reminding me this time.”
Lu Zhichen chuckled. “Why are you thanking me?”
“Are you coming with me?” Lu Zhichen asked immediately.
“No need. I still have something on.”
“Okay, I’ll head back first. Bye.”
“Mm-hm.”
After hanging up, she saw Li Ting smiling ambiguously. “Boyfriend?”
“No.” Xing Jiuan shook her head and frowned. “We’re just ordinary friends.”
“Okay.” Li Ting nodded, not sure if he believed her or not.
He only felt that Xing Jiuan seemed a little obedient earlier.
“I’m going back. Where are you going? Can I send you back?”
Li Ting thought for a moment. “Forget it. I’ll go back myself. See you next time.”
“Okay.”
Huo Jun and Madam Huo did not leave. When they saw Huo Jinqi and Huo Jinyuan returning, they hurriedly asked them if Xing Jiuan was alright.
“Yanyan is fine,” Huo Jinqi replied.
“I’ve already called the police nearby…” Huo Jinyuan said. “They’re probably on their way to the police station now.”
