Actually, he didn't know either.

Ling Xiaosu's eyes were almost red as she asked, ”When we were in B City, you told me everything. You said that we would each take what we needed and I will follow what you said. What are we doing now?”

Yeah, what is it? What was their relationship?

”Isn't this kind of relationship between us, an unmarried couple?”

”Heh.” Ling Xiaosu pursed her lips into a mocking smile as she forcibly pulled back the tears that were on the verge of flowing out of her eyes, ”What unmarried couple? Are you going to say that you're doing what you need to do? ”

The Clairvoyant opened his mouth, but no sound came out. He seemed to agree with Ling Xiaosu's words.

Ling Xiaosu could not help but feel upset as he looked at how the heaven defying official was tacitly admitting to his silence.

Yes, what the heaven defying official said was right. They were originally on their own terms, and this was absolutely true.

Ling Xiaosu blinked. She was holding her coat in her hand and said coldly, ”I'm leaving first.”

And then, he rushed out of the mansion without waiting for a chance to speak again.

After hailing a taxi, Ling Xiaosu hurried back to her house and paid the driver. Just as she got off the car, she saw Ling An, who was standing at the entrance, looking around uneasily.

Ling Xiaosu was puzzled. At this hour, the restaurant should still be open. Why did Ling An come back so early?

The teahouse run by his family was initially closed at eight o'clock and at the latest at ten o'clock. But now, it was not even eight o'clock and the teahouse was already closed at half past seven?

Did something happen?

Ling Xiaosu stepped forward and was about to call Ling Xiaosu, but Ling An seemed to have a hunch that he would see Ling Xiaosu before he spoke.

Ling An hastily ran forward. With a frown on his face, he asked, ”Is there anyone strange that came to find you today?”

A strange person? Ling Xiaosu shook her head and replied with a puzzled expression, ”No, no one came looking for me today.”

Except for the strange, heaven-defying vassal who came to her and insisted that she accompany him for a meal.

Hearing Ling Xiaosu's reply, Ling An clearly relaxed. He stopped frowning and said, ”No one is looking for you …” ”That's good, that's good.”

Ling Xiaosu looked curiously at Ling An's abnormal reaction. ”What's wrong with you?” Has something happened? ”

Ling An shook his head and replied with a smile, ”No, I'm just worried about you.”

Ling An's expression was clearly different. Nothing had happened, so why were they so nervous?

Ling Xiaosu could not believe him, ”Ling An An, don't think about hiding anything from me. You'd better answer my question honestly.”

Ling An shifted his gaze, afraid to meet Ling Xiaosu's eyes.

Ling Xiaosu stared fixedly at Ling An An. Ling An An's expression made it seem as if something was up, but he kept trying to hide it from her, hesitating to speak.

”Ling An An, tell me, is there something you're hiding from me?” Ling Xiaosu asked.

Since Ling An An didn't say anything, she might as well ask.

Ling An stammered out his answer. ”No … nothing at all. It's just …”

Ling Xiaosu was slightly displeased. Since when did Ling An An An An hide this from her? He didn't even tell her what had happened.
