Chapter 838 - Lie (1/2)
Xia Ning stepped on the brakes and her eyes fell onto the black Bentley in front. She was extremely familiar with this car.
But why was he here? It was working hours now.
Xia Ning was silent for a while. She opened the door and got off.
The man in the car walked down as well.
“Did you not stay here last night?” Qiao Yu turned around and asked Xia Ning.
Xia Ning answered, “Yup, how long have you been here?”
“Just arrived.” Qiao Yu looked at Xia Ning and asked, “Where did you live yesterday?”
“Yesterday…” Xia Ning was about to say she was staying at Jin Yan’s place when she remembered Zheng Ziming’s advice to her. If she said she was staying at Jin Yan’s place last night, he would think too much. She smiled suddenly. “I was planning to stay here yesterday but I suddenly realized the keys were in my other house. So I stayed there. I came back this morning to get something.”
Qiao Yu darted a look at Xia Ning. Her eyes were clear and he did not want to suspect anything. Ever since they talked things out a few days ago, he felt there was no need to doubt her. That question just now was on instinct.
“Why are you here today?” Xia Ning asked.
Qiao Yu looked at her and did not speak. But there was some emotion in his dark eyes.
Xia Ning felt a bit awkward from his gaze. It couldn’t be that a night apart felt like three years for him.
“Let’s drive in.” Xia Ning opened the gates.
Qiao Yu looked at her back and curled his lips. She was still so shy. Seeing her open the door and going back to the car, he got in as well.
The two cars entered the villa one after another.
