Chapter 128: I Can Buy Your Company
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The bright sunlight created dappled shade on the cement floor of the old-fashioned neighborhood. After the rain, the air in B City became exceptionally fresh, and there was a faint fragrance of grass mixed in.
Lu Haiqiao carried her bag and walked down the stairs. When she reached the first floor, she pushed open the rusty iron door.
She walked along the old cement road to the entrance of her gated community.
In the distance, she saw a familiar black car parked by the side of the road.
An Audi S8.
Lu Haiqiao walked with her hands behind his back. The door of the Audi opened, and Xie Xuan stepped out. Lu Haiqiao couldn’t help but quicken her pace. In the end, she jogged over to him.
She smiled, and there were dimples on her pink cheeks. “Why didn’t you tell me before you came?”
Xie Xuan reached out and tucked her loose hair behind her ear. “I’m already here.”
Lu Haiqiao tilted her head. She had put on eye makeup today, making her already beautiful eyes look even more charming. “That’s different. If I knew you were coming, I would have gone downstairs earlier so that you wouldn’t have to wait.”
‘And I’ll get to see you sooner.’
“Alright, get in the car. It’s hot outside. You’ll get a sunburn.” As he spoke, Xie
Xuan took her bag and placed the back of his hand on the roof of the car to let
Lu Haiqiao get in first.
The driver today was Xie San.
Not long after the car started, Lu Haiqiao’s phone rang.
She glanced at it and saw that it was a call from Xu Duo. She could roughly guess what it was about.
As expected, the first thing she heard was, “Lu Haiqiao, we’ve been best friends for so many years, but you didn’t tell me you found a boyfriend!”
Lu Haiqiao was speechless.
She planned to order a loudspeaker online for Lu Xuege when she arrived at the office.
Lu Haiqiao opened her mouth and was about to speak when she accidentally met Xie Xuan’s gaze.
There was a smile on his face, but it was unfathomable.
On the other end of the phone, Xu Duo’s voice continued, “Hello, Lu Haiqiao. I’m asking you a question. Why aren’t you answering?”
Lu Haiqiao nodded absent-mindedly. “What loan? I have so much money that I can buy your company. I don’t want a loan!”
With that, she hung up.
Xu Duo was speechless.
What the hell was all that?
At this moment, Xie Xuan gave her a teasing glance. “Buy their company?” Lu Haiqiao looked back at him. “Why? You don’t believe me?”
Xie Xuan lowered his eyes and gently squeezed her slender and soft fingers. “I do.”
The Lu family doted on her so much that she could still afford a few houses.
Besides, what was his was hers. As long as she asked, he could satisfy her unconditionally.
“You’re not being sincere.” Hearing this, Lu Haiqiao wrinkled her nose. “But you’ll know soon enough.”
Xie Xuan’s tone rose slightly. “What do you mean?”
“Nothing.” Lu Haiqiao shook her head.
The moment she looked up, she accidentally caught a glimpse of the rearview mirror in front of her.
Xie San’s cold eyes were reflected in the mirror.
There was suspicion, alienation, and wariness in his eyes.
Lu Haiqiao knew that Xie San was looking at her, so she deliberately smiled and raised her eyebrows provocatively in the direction of the rearview mirror..
