Chapter 1717 - She Is Actually Rather Adorable (7) (2/2)

She shielded her eyes and, as she turned her head, realized it was Lu Nanze coming home.

She was standing outside the gate now, with her arm raised. Hence upon turning the corner, he saw the girl right before him.

His pupils shrank back as he thought, “Qiao Yiyi?”

Why was she only back now?

This was only a momentary thought and, as quickly as that thought came, it left.

He didn’t really care about her, so why would he care where she had been last night?

He drove past Qiao Yiyi, right up to the main gate.

Automatically sensing and recognizing his car, the gate opened. Then the man drove straight in, as though he had not seen the girl.

Qiao Yiyi: …

She was a live human being standing there, had the man not seen her? Was he blind or something?

But even though she thought this, she still quickly sneaked in and slipped back into the household while the gate was wide open.

When she walked into the living room, Lu Nanze was sitting on the sofa reading the magazine that had just come from the post.

There was already a housekeeper preparing breakfast in the kitchen.

Qiao Yiyi coughed and strode to her bedroom upstairs. However, only after she had walked a few steps, Lu Nanze asked, “Where did you go last night?”

Her footsteps halted, as if suspended in midair.

She turned around. Lu Nanze did not look up from the magazine he was reading. He could not be bothered to lift his head to even give her a quick glance.

Unfortunately, even if no one noticed her, she still had to act timid and weak. She lowered her head and stammered, “I- I- I forgot to bring my keys. I—”

“The lock has a digital facial recognition system.” Lu Nanze finally looked up and gave the girl a glance. Then he looked down again and said, “Nevermind. Get a key from the butler. In any case, you won’t be staying long, even if we do include you in the lock system.”
