Zhao Wenjie was extremely efficient. He had completed the tasks that the heaven defying official had instructed him to do in one day. That night, Ling Xiaosu and Ling Anan had moved into an apartment under the name of the heaven defying official.
Ling Xiaosu looked at the sleeping Ling An and sighed before leaving the bedroom. She then closed the door gently and turned off the light.
Walking out of the bedroom, Ling Xiaosu found that the lights were still on in the living room, while the heaven defying official was still sleeping on the sofa.
Why was he still here so late? Wasn't it time to go back to the villa?
Ling Xiaosu went down the stairs softly. He wanted to drink some water, so he went to sleep quietly. Unexpectedly, it was as if he had a premonition of Ling Xiaosu's movements. Just as Ling Xiaosu walked down the last flight of stairs, he asked, "How is Mother Yue?"
Ling Xiaosu suddenly stopped walking. After a while, she slowly replied, "My mother is already much better. I just can't sleep soundly. Thank you."
Ling Xiaosu stood on the spot, not daring to look at the degenerate sitting on the sofa. To be honest, if it wasn't for him suddenly letting them live in an apartment, they might be sleeping out on the streets right now.
Thinking of this, Ling Hong sincerely thanked the heaven defying official.
He did not like Ling Xiaosu speaking to him with a hint of politeness in her tone. That way, it would make him feel that there was a sort of estrangement between the two of them.
Xiaoxiao, like I said, there's no need for you to be so courteous to me. The heaven defying official repeated what he had heard during the day. Ling Xiaosu's estrangement made him feel uncomfortable.
Ling Xiaosu stood on the spot, not knowing what to do. She dared not look at the sofa, but looked down at her toes. With a dry smile, she said, "No matter what, I have to thank you. I should be the one thanking you this time."
"But I don't like it." Just as Ling Xiaosu finished speaking, the Clairvoyant followed up, "Don't say such words in front of me. I don't like it when you say 'thank you'."
As he finished, he put down his notebook and went upstairs without even looking at Ling Xiaosu.
Ling Xiaosu was confused. [Why is the heaven defying official so angry?] Did she say something wrong?
Before Ling Xiaosu could understand what was going on, his phone vibrated. Instinctively, Ling Xiaosu picked up his phone and opened the message.
A string of unfamiliar numbers came into view, along with an unfamiliar message, "Xiaoxiao, how are you doing? Did I hear about you? Does it matter? Do you need me to come over? "
Ling Xiaosu was wondering who the owner of this number was. There was also the familiar name "Xiaoxiao" in the message. Other than Ling An An and the heaven defying official calling her this, she had forgotten who else called her this.
Just as Ling Xiaosu was lost in her thoughts, an unfamiliar number suddenly called. Ling Xiaosu hesitated for a moment before answering.
"Xiaoxiao, I've heard about you. Do you want to be alright now? Do you need me to come over? " A familiar voice came over the phone. Ling Xiaosu suddenly understood who the owner of this unfamiliar number was. It was Yan Qiuyan.
"Hello, Xiaoxiao? Hey! Xiaoxiao! Answer me, I'm worried about you. " Yan Xu Yan didn't hear Ling Xiaosu's reply on the phone. She thought something had happened to Ling Xiaosu, so she asked anxiously.
Ling Xiaosu came back to her senses and asked with furrowed brows, "Yan Huyan, why is it you?" Why did he call? And how did he know that something had happened to her?
Ling Xiaosu remembered that she didn't tell anyone about this. Furthermore, she had been told by a heaven defying official that he had already sealed off the news, so as to not let the rumors outside affect Ling An.
So, how did Yan Qianyin know that something had happened to her?
Yan Xu Yan did not realize that he had been suspected by Ling Xiaosu, but told her the reason for his call in a hurry, "I heard that something happened between you and mom, so I was a little worried and called to ask. Xiaoxiao, how are you doing now?" Are you all right? "
Ling Xiaosu frowned and replied coldly, "Yan Xu Yan, my mom is not your mom. Can you please not say such misleading words? And I'm fine, you don't need to call. "
If such words were heard by others, she would not be able to explain it.
Yan Huyan felt awkward for a moment, but pretended to care. "Xiaoxiao, I was worried about you so I made a slip of the tongue. Oh right, where are you staying now? "Today, I went to your house to look for you and found that you have moved out. Xiaoxiao, you …"
"I've already found a place to stay. Thank you for your concern, and if there's nothing else, I'll have to hang up and rest first." Before Yan Xu Yan could say anything, Ling Xiaosu hung up the phone.
Ling Xiaosu pinched the center of her brows, feeling a headache coming on. Just how did Yan Qianyin know that something had happened to her? And he even called to ask, who told him?
Yan Xu Yan, who was hung up by Ling Xiaosu, had an ugly expression on his face. He hurriedly made another call, but this time, he didn't call Ling Xiaosu, but Chu Xiaoran instead.
"What's going on? I called to ask and Ling Xiaosu hung up. I went to her house to look for someone and found that she had already moved out. How am I supposed to contact her like this? " Yan Huyan asked Chu Xiaoran who was on the phone.
Originally, he thought today was a good opportunity. As long as he could appear by her side in time to help Ling Xiaosu when she was in trouble, he would be able to leave a good impression on her at the same time. He might even be able to change Ling Xiaosu's opinion and fall in love with him.
However, she didn't expect Ling Xiaosu to reject him. Furthermore, she even told him that she found a place to stay. How could he appear by her side like a hero who saved his life? Thinking up to here, Yan Xu Yan felt a burst of anger in his heart.
Chu Xiaoran was in a bad mood after being disturbed from her sleep, so she coldly replied, "You're useless. Why don't you call me now to interrogate me. Yan Xu Yan, can I trouble you to have some ambition?" Did I tell you before that when Ling Xiaosu was in trouble, you were the first to appear by her side? What were you doing? "You are flirting with the artist you work with. You yourself are useless, yet you have the nerve to question me?"
"Who gave you the courage?"
Yan Xu Yan choked as she spoke to Chu Xiaoran, "Ling Xiaosu has gone off somewhere. I can't find anyone in a short period of time, so I might not be able to complete the mission you gave me."
