Chapter 431 - It Really is Such a Coincidence. Such a Coincidence (1/2)
“Lady, why are you leaving too? Didn’t I ask you to wait? I will pay you back when I get the money, alright?” The old man had heard the sound of footsteps. He turned his head and said in a surprise when he saw Ling Chuxi.
“Oh, it’s nothing. You don’t have to pay me back.” Ling Chuxi criticized silently in her heart. ‘At your speed, if I had waited till next year, I don’t think that I would even be able to see your shadow. Furthermore I think that you actually do not have the intention to pay me back. Otherwise, you wouldn’t still be dilly-dallying like this.’
“How about this. My house is just right in front. You can follow me back home to take the money. The courtyard in my house has one of the best views in the capital. I guarantee that it will be an eye-opener for you.” The old man squinted his eyes faintly and said to Ling Chuxi triumphantly. The more she looked at his appearance, the more obscene it was.
“Forget it. There’s no need.” Ling Chuxi was silently alert as she looked at his perverted expression. ‘This old man should not have any funny hobbies, right? I should have let him get beaten up if I had known earlier.’
“Go on, go on.” The old man persuaded her and his expression turned even more obscene.
“No need. I said there’s no need!” Ling Chuxi subconsciously took two steps behind. What should she do? She had the urge to attack him now. The other party was an old man. Could he endure her beating? This was a big question.
Just as Ling Chuxi was in a tangle, a shadow suddenly scurried out from an alley by her side. Ling Chuxi was startled when she saw the disheveled state of the shadow with s.h.a.ggy hair and face covered with dirt!
“It’s you!” Both of them exclaimed simultaneously.
It was actually Ye Qianhe right before her eyes. Ling Chuxi would never have thought that they would meet again so soon.
Ye Qianhe was also in a daze when he saw Ling Chuxi. He had been hiding in the forests after he was scared away by Ling Wushang. He was extremely fearful as if his heart and gall bladder had been hung up, and he had hidden till dawn before he dared to come out. He did not know that he would meet Ling Chuxi again once he came out. It was really such a coincidence, such a coincidence. Oh, no. It should be ‘meeting enemies on a narrow road’ instead!
Ye Qianhe looked at the surroundings suspiciously. When he did not discover Ling Wushang’s figure, his mood finally calmed down a bit.
