After Lu Haiqiao entered the guest room, the living room fell silent.

Xie Xuan’s gaze fell on the floor-to-ceiling window that was mottled by the rain. After looking at it for a while, he silently lowered his eyes.

At this moment, Xie Er entered the living room.

He looked up in the direction of the second floor. After confirming that there was no one, he whispered, “Boss, Yan Lu promised to hand over the person who attacked Bin, so should we let his parents and sister go?”

“Ha.” Xie Xuan smiled sarcastically. “I’ve never believed his verbal promises.

We’ll talk about it after he sends that person to us.”

Xie Er replied, “Yes, Boss.”

Seeing that he hadn’t left, Xie Xuan turned around. “What’s wrong?”

Noticing that Xie Er’s hands were clenched into fists, he went forward and patted Xie Er’s shoulder. “I won’t let go of Bin’s matter. Keep sending people to Yan Lu’s place. No matter where he goes, I’ll make sure he doesn’t have a good life.

Xie Er nodded. “Yes!”

Half an hour later, Lu Haiqiao came downstairs in an oversized white T-shirt and knee-length sports shorts.

Before leaving the bedroom, Aunt Zhu told her through sign language that there were no female clothes in the entire villa, so the young master found a set of his own clothes and asked her to make do with it first. The wet clothes would be immediately washed and dried, so there was no need to worry.

In the living room, Xie Xuan, who had also taken a shower, sat on the sofa.

His hair was half-dry, and as he lowered his head, the hair on his forehead fell. He looked rather docile.

Hearing footsteps, looked up from his phone. When he saw Lu Haiqiao, he stood up and walked over. He took her hand and led her to the dining room.

There was ginger water that Auntie Zhu had just made on the dining table.

Xie Xuan picked up one of the bowls and felt that it had cooled down enough, so he handed it to Lu Haiqiao. “Drink it all.”

Lu Haiqiao puffed out her cheeks. “You have to change your chauvinistic tone.” “I see.” Xie Xuan leaned forward slightly, his head close to her face. “How about

He said gently, “Be a good girl and drink the ginger water. Otherwise, I’ll be in misery if you catch a cold.”

Xie Xuan’s handsome face was right in front of her. His skin was fair, and it glowed under the light.

Lu Haiqiao stared at him unblinkingly as if she was possessed.

“How could there be such a good-looking person?” she thought.

At this moment, the mist of the hot ginger water floated over and blurred Lu Haiqiao’s vision.

She blinked subconsciously and quickly took the bowl from Xie Xuan.

She sniffed gently. Other than the unique spicy smell of ginger, there was also a faint sweetness.

Lu Haiqiao frowned. “Is there sugar in it?”

Xie Xuan picked up the other bowl on the table and took a sip. “Yes, it’s a little sweet.”

Hearing this, Lu Haiqiao quickly put down the bowl and shook her head. “No, I can’t eat sweet food.

Xie Xuan was puzzled. “What’s wrong?”

Under the dim light, her skin was so fair that it was almost transparent.

“To be precise, I can’t eat anything that contains sugar.” She reached out and touched the tip of her nose, feeling quite aggrieved. “I’ve been allergic to sugar since I was young. I have rashes all over my body whenever I eat food with high sugar content. In the worst case, I even fainted and was sent to the hospital.” So it wasn’t that she didn’t like sweets, but that she couldn’t eat them at all.

No wonder she didn’t even touch any fruit..
