Hearing the sound of someone entering, Lu Lichen's gaze turned from the newspaper in his hand and landed on her body.

Perhaps because he saw her expression, Lu Lichen faintly frowned: "Come over." He held out his hand to her.

Ye Xiaoxia's mood couldn't be considered to be too good, as she walked towards Lu Lichen with her shoulders hunched. When she was still one step away from him, he pulled her over and sat on her leg.

If it was the past, Ye Xiaoxia might still struggle a bit, but today, she didn't have the mood to struggle anymore.

"What's wrong?" Lu Lichen's slender fingers stroked her chin as he asked softly.

The expression on her face was undisguised. Even her eyebrows were drooping. "It's nothing …"

"It's already like this and now it's fine." Lu Lichen's brows furrowed, "Speak, what happened, hm?"

Ye Xiaoxia pursed her lips slightly, and as if she was relying on him, she took the initiative to raise her hands to hug his neck, then leaned into his embrace, as if she could only feel a trace of comfort in her heart, "Lu Lichen, tell me, should I give up?"

However, in the next second, he was in a good mood again as he smirked: "What do you mean?" His hand fell on her shoulder.

"Uncle Wang said that even if I found out the truth about my father, people wouldn't care." As Ye Xiaoxia said this, her eyes began to heat up.

"You want people's approval?" he asked.

Ye Xiaoxia subconsciously shook her head, "Of course not … "I just want to know the truth. I want to know why …"

Her father had been wronged and had met the mysterious woman and committed suicide. She wanted to know why her father wanted to commit suicide, and how someone like him could commit suicide.

How could he harden his heart?

"Since that's the case, why should you care about the opinions of others?" He smiled, his voice steady and magnetic.

Ye Xiaoxia was stunned for a moment. She raised her eyes and looked at him, a little puzzled.

Seeing her cute appearance, Lu Lichen couldn't help but pinch the tip of her nose: "What you want is your peace of mind, who cares what other people do?"

"That's right …" As if awakened by this sentence, Ye Xiaoxia suddenly laughed, and the worry on her face instantly disappeared.

"You don't feel sad anymore?"

"I'm not sad anymore." Ye Xiaoxia smiled lightly.

It was as if the things that she had been worrying about had suddenly been resolved.

Lu Lichen was right, the truth that she wanted did not need to be known by the world, it was fine as long as she knew it himself, it was fine as long as she knew it himself.

"Have you eaten?"

"Not yet."

"Let's go." He took her off him and led her by the hand to the dining room.

He had never felt so happy to have a woman by his side when he was alone. Now that he had this woman by his side, he could not wait to see her all day long.

At night, Ye Xiaoxia laid in Lu Lichen's embrace.

"One thing is very strange." Ye Xiaoxia shifted his attention away, "I don't think I've heard about the matters of the Old Master Li recently, where did he go?"

Since the incident with Mi Shuanglu last time, Ye Xiaoxia had not seen the Old Master Li, and she was also one of the main characters in the incident with Mi Shuanglu's Prominent Class. But now, the only person who was still under discussion was Mi Shuanglu, and not a single shadow of the Old Master Li was revealed, could it be that he had hidden out?

"Why, do you care about that old man?"

His voice sounded annoyed.

Ye Xiaoxia pouted: "Of course not, why should I care about him, I just want to ask."

The main thing was that Ye Xiaoxia had offended the Old Master Li, so of course she would be more concerned about his matters. She didn't want to be obstructed by the Old Master Li when the time came.

"Not the best." He coldly snorted, "He touched Gu Ziyu's woman, what do you think will happen to him?"

Mi Shuanglu was Gu Ziyu's woman, Ye Xiaoxia knew this very well.

However, for a woman, Gu Ziyu actually killed Old Master Li?

The Old Master Li had a very deep foundation in A City, if it wasn't for a strong backer, they definitely wouldn't have been able to make him disappear without a trace.

Ye Xiaoxia was puzzled, and naturally asked about it.

"Gu Ziyu and I have known each other for many years, I know his family's situation the best." Lu Lichen patted Ye Xiaoxia's back, "Don't worry, he's not as useless as he looks."

At the very least, the Gu Clan wasn't inferior to the Lu Clan at all.

"Alright …" Ye Xiaoxia yawned, she was not too concerned about Gu Ziyu's family, after all, they were from two different worlds.

Just as Ye Xiaoxia was about to fall asleep, she suddenly remembered that Lu Lichen and Gu Ziyu were friends. Then why did Gu Ziyu not go to the Kaiser Hotel that night?

While she was thinking this and preparing to ask, her consciousness had already been completely swallowed by sleep.

When she woke up the next morning, Ye Xiaoxia had completely forgotten about this matter.

After eating breakfast, Ye Xiaoxia planned to head back to the company on foot, but when she walked out of the door, she heard the sound of a car behind her, she immediately dodged to the side, but the car stopped right beside her.

As the car window rolled down, Ye Xiaoxia saw that the one sitting in the driver's seat was Lu Lichen.

"Get in." He glanced at her and said.

"No need, I'll just go out and take the bus." Ye Xiaoxia refused.

"How can I, Lu Lichen's woman, get on a bus with someone else?" Lu Lichen raised his eyebrows, "Come up."

Such a domineering tone made Ye Xiaoxia feel helpless, and in the end, she could only obediently sit on the carriage.

He started the car and drove to her office.

"Can you drive?" On the way, Lu Lichen suddenly asked.

Ye Xiaoxia was startled for a moment, then nodded: "Yes."

Her driver's license was still in her bag, something she had always carried with her.

"Yes." he answered.

Ye Xiaoxia was a little confused.
