Chapter 1165: So Innocent, I Can't Bear to Deceive Her

~7 min read 1,327 words

These two people had no trouble communicating.

But Xiao'an listened until her eyes were spinning in circles.

She thought to herself, how... how was she supposed to relay this to Sir?

Xiao'an felt so troubled.

Liu Xin'ai, however, really wanted to laugh.

She thought, when it comes to being quick-witted, you still have to look to Xu Xiaoxiao!

And the content that Xu Xiaoxiao told Liu Xin'ai in English was:

She had already helped arrange a lawyer; once Liu Xin'ai had free time, she would meet with the other party, and any documents that required her personal signature would also be handled at the same time.

Liu Xin'ai knew very well that her opportunity to meet with the lawyer was extremely precious.

She had to handle the matter cleanly in one go.

In this way, even if Qin Yiyan discovered the clues and trapped her at home again, Liu Xin'ai wouldn't have to panic!

Next, as long as the divorce litigation entered the process, Liu Xin'ai just had to wait for the result!

Having sorted out the schedule, Liu Xin'ai couldn't help but let out a long breath.

And Xu Xiaoxiao cast her gaze toward the bewildered Xiao'an.

She even took the initiative to ask, "Xiao'an, what do you think?"

"Ah, what do you mean, what do I think?"

"I was just chatting with Xin'ai about an original English novel."

Xiao'an took it for the truth and even scratched her head awkwardly, saying, "I... I don't understand what you two are talking about."

"Ah? Then you really missed out on a super exciting novel! This story is so thrilling; it's about..."

Xu Xiaoxiao began to vividly describe the content of a detective novel to Xiao'an.

Xiao'an listened extremely attentively!

She even thought to herself that Miss Xu was truly a good person, knowing she couldn't understand and yet explaining it specially!

Now, she had content to report back to Sir!

Xiao'an felt fortunate on her side.

But Liu Xin'ai sighed silently, thinking that Xu Xiaoxiao was bullying someone in broad daylight.

However...

This

kind of harmless little lie was not something Liu Xin'ai would expose.

Instead, she was now thinking about how she could successfully meet with the lawyer.

Actually, regarding this problem, Xu Xiaoxiao had already arranged it clearly for Liu Xin'ai!

The meeting time she and Liu Xin'ai had agreed upon was the day after tomorrow—

When this day arrived, Xu Xiaoxiao came to find Liu Xin'ai again.

But her task today...

Was to hold Xiao'an back.

Poor Xiao'an did not yet know what she was about to face.

She stood quietly to the side, just about to yawn.

But she suddenly heard Xu Xiaoxiao speak in a very exaggerated way, shouting: "Oh my god, Xin'ai, why is your nose bleeding!?"

Upon hearing this, all of Xiao'an's sleepiness vanished!

She even looked at Liu Xin'ai nervously!

Only then did she see that the Madam was indeed bleeding "blood"!!

Xiao'an was so panicked she didn't know what to do, but fortunately, Xu Xiaoxiao was there to calmly direct her: "Xiao'an, hurry and go buy me some cotton balls!"

"Okay, okay, I'm going right now!"

Xiao'an went off in a panic to buy cotton balls.

But when she ran back at top speed, she discovered...

Why was only Xu Xiaoxiao there?

Looking around, Xiao'an didn't see Liu Xin'ai's figure, so she asked Xu Xiaoxiao anxiously: "Miss Xu, where is my Madam?"

"Oh, Xin'ai suddenly received a call and had to go meet an important person."

"But the Madam's nose was still bleeding!"

"Don't worry, after my treatment, it stopped bleeding."

Xiao'an immediately let out a sigh of relief.

But immediately after, she felt something was wrong!

Because...

"I wasn't following the Madam!! If Sir finds out, he will blame me!!"

Xu Xiaoxiao reached out and poked Xiao'an's forehead, laughing: "Silly girl, then just don't tell him."

In her eyes, there was still a

bewitching light.

She wanted to make Xiao'an follow her arrangements!

The result?

Xiao'an refused without hesitation: "No, even if it's a punishment, it's what I deserve. Now, I'm going to find the Madam!"

Her stubbornness made Xu Xiaoxiao want to sigh.

Seeing Xiao'an lift her feet to leave, Xu Xiaoxiao asked, "Where are you going to look?"

Just going to...

Oh right, where was she going?

She didn't even have a target!

Xiao'an was at her wit's end.

Fortunately, at this moment, Xu Xiaoxiao provided an important clue: "I just heard Liu Xin'ai say she seems to be going to a coffee shop on Huanghe North Road."

"I understand, thank you Miss Xu, I'll head over there now!"

Xiao'an was deeply grateful to Xu Xiaoxiao, then trotted all the way to hail a taxi.

Watching the girl's retreating figure, Xu Xiaoxiao sighed softly.

She thought to herself that this girl was truly foolishly cute.

So innocent that she couldn't bear to lie to her.

Yet this very Xu Xiaoxiao, who couldn't bear to lie, had just given Xiao'an a completely fake address.

The location where Liu Xin'ai was at this moment was Huanghe West Road.

Also in this vicinity were Bai Yufei and Chi Rong.

Ever since Bai Yufei found out that Chi Rong had been nearby but hadn't come to see her, she had been very bothered by it.

Later, she found an opportunity to express her dissatisfaction to Chi Rong.

Chi Rong also felt she had been a bit biased, so she took Bai Yufei out shopping to buy some things her daughter liked as gifts.

However, Chi Rong's remedy didn't have much effect.

Bai Yufei held Chi Rong's arm and was still complaining: "It's really not easy to go shopping with Mom now!"

"You silly girl, it was Mom who was worried you were busy with work, so I didn't come to disturb you."

"But you are my mother, I would rather you come and disturb me, instead of only keeping your sister-in-law in your heart!"

【82】 (Continued from above)

Bai Yufei spoke of the thing that bothered her the most.

There was still unwillingness and resentment in the depths of her eyes!

Seeing this, Chi Rong advised: "Your sister-in-law's parents are both gone, and she married into our Qin Family, so it is only right that I care for her a bit more."

"But she already has my brother to care for her, shouldn't she be content?"

After saying this, Bai Yufei added gloomily: "But sister-in-law is indeed someone who is not easily content!"

Chi Rong heard that there was more to Bai Yufei's words, so she turned her head and asked: "What do you mean?"

Bai Yufei wanted to speak, but hesitated.

Finally, she irritably lowered her head and muttered: "Forget it, forget it, there are some things my brother won't let me tell you."

"But I won't tell Yiyan, just tell me directly."

"Can Mom keep her word?"

Chi Rong smiled and nodded, signaling for Bai Yufei to set her mind at ease.

Bai Yufei took a deep breath, then said in a grave tone: "Brother and sister-in-law... have some conflict!"

Hearing this, Chi Rong's heart tightened.

But then, because of something she thought of, she fell into deep thought.

Finally, Chi Rong tentatively asked: "Do you know... how the injury on your brother's face came about?"

Chi Rong's words made Bai Yufei freeze, and she murmured in return: "Mom knows too?"

"Mm, your brother told me." Chi Rong's reaction was very calm.

But Bai Yufei could not be calm.

She asked with urgency: "Aren't you angry?"

Chi Rong thought Bai Yufei was just feeling sorry for her brother being hurt, so she smiled and patted her cheek.

Then she said: "Why should I be angry? Life belongs to your brother and sister-in-law; we should just respect whatever decisions they make."

Bai Yufei never expected...

That Chi Rong would have this kind of reaction!

And even tacitly approved of...

The absurd relationship between Liu Xin'ai and Qin Yiyan!
