"Don't do anything rash, I'll board the plane and return to the Gaangting City half an hour later. I'll contact you tomorrow."
"No need, which airport are you at? I'll pick you up."
"I can do it myself."
"I don't have a place to stay. I'll stay with you tonight."
"Just you alone?"
"How many people do you want?"
Hearing that, Lin Nuo looked up at Qiao Shenyu, and nodded after a moment of hesitation: "Alright, I will go to airport number 1."
Lin Nuo hung up the phone and noticed that the atmosphere was not right. Not only was Qiao Shenyu's expression gloomy, even the way Zeng Lee and Yang Xiaoxi looked at him became extremely difficult to comprehend, let alone the eyes of Lan Shuiyao and Zhong Zexing, it was as if she was a piece of art that had not been touched at all, and was being looked at shamelessly.
"Are you done talking?" Lin Nuo's mood really couldn't be considered to be very good, as she kept feeling her heart tighten for some unknown reason. Because she seemed to have been used by Qiao Shenyu, just like how she had imagined yesterday.
Qiao Shenyu had only used her as a pretense to make a trip to the Liangcheng, using this as a chance to see the person he wanted to meet.
It was very obvious that the tall and slender and delicate looking girl in front of him was the person Qiao Shenyu wanted to meet.
"If you're done talking, then let's go. It's already late." Lin Nuo said as she stood up and picked up her bag to leave.
Her actions, in the eyes of others, turned into an impatient desire to return to Gaangting City to meet the man who was waiting for her at the airport and wanted to stay at her home.
Qiao Shenyu's face was turning uglier and uglier. Was that Jiang Xiao really something she couldn't wait to see?
She didn't even care that so many people were there to amplify their voices. She just glanced at him and agreed to let the man live in her house.
What did she mean?
Perhaps, that Jiang Xiaobai was also one of the men she raised?
The more he thought about it, the more Qiao Shenyu's anger burned, the colder his aura became. The light in his eyes was like -several hundred degrees celsius, able to freeze the entire lounge.
It just so happened that at this time, Zhong Zexing's words had turned all of Lin Nuo's guesses into reality.
"Eh? This young lady's eyes look just like Yao Yao's. Her phoenix eyes are big and bright. At first glance, it really does look like they were carved from the same mold."
Lin Nuo had already raised her foot, but after hearing this sentence, she uncontrollably lowered her leg, and looked at Lan Shuiyao once again.
At that moment, Lin Nuo's pupils contracted again and again.
She finally remembered why she felt that this girl was a little familiar, especially that pair of eyes. It was because she never dreamed that Lan Shuiyao's eyes were actually extremely similar to her daughter's pair of eyes, and it was no wonder she did not immediately recall them.
Her daughter Yan looked extremely similar to her, as though they were carved from the same mold. She could even feel that Lan Shuiyao's eyes were similar to hers, which showed how similar her eyebrows were to Lan Shuiyao's.
So, was she just a substitute for Qiao Shenyu?
However, Lan Shuiyao just looked at her and also smiled towards Qiao Shenyu, and purposely said: "What a coincidence, Big Brother Yu, your friend and I are actually so similar."
Lin Nuo understood the hidden meaning behind her words: Look, even if Big Brother Yu couldn't have me, but she also found a girl who looks like me as a substitute.
In that moment, Lin Nuo felt that she was in a very sorry state, worse than the night at the police station.
Yesterday, she had told Qiao Shenyu that they had given it a try, but Qiao Shenyu had readily promised with just her eyes that she would be a good father.
Hehe, how much does he love Lan Shuiyao?
And those love words that came at once, he must have put in a lot of effort. Moreover, he was saying those moving love words to a double.
Lin Nuo didn't even want to stay for a second, so she pretended to smile lightly at Lan Shuiyao and Zhong Zexing, and then left a message for them: "I'll go check in, all of you chat slowly, don't delay your boarding time", and directly walked towards the security check door.
Qiao Shenyu gave Zeng Lee and Yang Xiaoxi a glance, and the two immediately followed Lin Nuo.
Seeing that, Lan Shuiyao leaned close to Zhong Zexing on purpose and whispered: "Can Mr. Zhong wait for me for a bit?"
"No problem. I'll go get the tickets now. You and Mr Qiao can chat slowly." Zhong Zexing was very tactful, he carried his luggage and walked towards the ticket collection area.
After they left, Lan Shuiyao finally approached Qiao Shenyu. Between the two of them, there was only a distance of 40 to 50 centimeters.
"Big Brother Yu, I thought you would never come to Liangcheng ever again." The girl's voice was soft, but it was filled with ridicule and a hint of hatred.
Qiao Shenyu's gloomy face eased up a bit, and the corner of his mouth raised slightly: "Why haven't I come to Liangcheng and eaten people anyway?"
Lan Shuiyao asked, "No ghosts?"
"Is there?" Qiao Shenyu asked.
The atmosphere was rather cold, as if a great battle was about to break out.
Suddenly, Lan Shuiyao laughed. At such a young age, he gave off a very mature feeling.
She looked towards the direction of the security passage and only saw Lin Nuo's back, who was waiting in line for the security check. "Looks like it, but it doesn't look like something that the Big Brother Yu can control."
"Don't worry about that." Qiao Shenyu pretended to smile deeply, then said: "But there is one thing, she is two years older than you, so …"
It was she who was like Lin Nuo, not Lin Nuo who was like her.
The smile on her face suddenly stiffened, and she suddenly saw from the corner of her eyes that Lin Nuo was looking in their direction. Lan Shuiyao leisurely smiled, took half a step forward, and leaned close as she whispered into her ear.
And it was not only that, the young girl had opened her arms wide and hugged Qiao Shenyu.
From Lin Nuo's perspective, they seemed to be embracing and kissing, which was the best proof that Qiao Shenyu didn't push them away.
Big Brother Yu, that woman is not suitable for you. Lan Shuiyao breathed in deeply, her red lips moved one after another. These words seemed to be a reminder, but it also seemed to mean that she wanted to express something else.
Qiao Shenyu turned and looked at her with a cold expression. He understood Lan Shuiyao's intention just by looking at her actions, but it was already too late.
When he was about to reach out to push her, Lan Shuiyao had already released him and took a few steps back, pulling a safe distance away from him.
The anger in Qiao Shenyu's heart grew a little stronger, but he did not reveal it. He only cast his shallow and calm gaze onto the face of the seemingly elegant girl in front of him, and said indifferently: "I know that you did this on purpose!"
To be so scheming at such a young age, it was truly incredible.
"I really didn't understand what the Big Brother Yu was saying." Lan Shuiyao's smile was clear and pure, and only the pride in his eyes that could not be hidden allowed Qiao Shenyu to confirm his guess.
"The one surnamed Zhong is more suitable for you, I wish you a happy marriage." Qiao Shenyu did not want to argue with Lan Shuiyao anymore, so he prepared to leave.
