Lu Yunge moved closer and stood in front of her. “Haiqiao, this is the first and last time I’m telling you. I don’t care if this Xie is related to the Xie family or not. Stay away from him. Understood?”

“If I remember correctly, you said that the Xie family in B City is your patron.” He had never looked so serious before, which surprised Lu Haiqiao.

If Xie Xuan was a member of the Xie family, then her interaction with Lu Yunge’s “sugar daddy” would undoubtedly enhance their relationship.

If Xie Xuan wasn’t a member of the Xie family, he would be an ordinary person who had nothing to do with them, then it wouldn’t be a problem for Lu Haiqiao to make friends with him.

Lu Yunge snorted in disdain. “B City is the Xie family’s territory after all. It’s only right to give him some respect.”

Outside B City, it would be a different story.

“I see,” Lu Haiqiao replied casually.

“Don’t just say that! Listen to me!” Lu Yunge returned to the previous topic. “This Xie Xuan can’t be found anywhere on the internet or the deep web. He doesn’t even have basic information about his education or profession online, let alone photos. To do that, even if he has nothing to do with the Xie family, he’s definitely not an ordinary person.”

Lu Haiqiao fell silent.

She looked down, hiding the seriousness that flashed across her eyes.

So what if he wasn’t an ordinary person? The natural law of birth, aging, illness, and death couldn’t be escaped.

“Yunge, I need to go to the toilet. See you.” Lu Haiqiao, who had been listening to Lu Yunge’s nagging for a long time, suddenly interrupted.

“Stop arguing and let me finish! You’ve only known this Xie Xuan for a short time. We can’t guarantee his identity or his character, so…”

As Lu Yunge rambled on, he thought about it and paced around in circles.

“So, Haiqiao, for a person of unknown origin like this, you should still…” After circling around, Lu Yunge was stunned.

There was no sign of Lu Haiqiao. Even the recurve bow she had just used was gone.

Lu Yunge, who had spoken until his mouth was dry, was dumbfounded.

Wait a minute, what did she just say?

Going to the bathroom, was it?

Lu Yunge quickly packed his things and chased after her.

“Hey, Haiqiao, Haiqiao, let me tell you…”

In the blink of an eye, it was Friday.

The “day after tomorrow” that Su Qingya mentioned was today.

After work, Lu Haiqiao turned off her computer, clocked out, and left as usual.

Just as she stepped out of the office building, Lu Wanxin’s call came in.

“Baby! Mommy is going out now. You can take care of your own dinner tonight.”

Lu Haiqiao smiled dotingly. “Alright, Mrs. Lu. Don’t worry and enjoy the beautiful night. I’ll be fine alone.”

As a piano music enthusiast, Lu Wanxin wouldn’t miss the worldly renowned young pianist Zhao Jiayu’s concert in B City.

“My darling, you’re such a good daughter.” Lu Wanxin’s footsteps came out of the receiver. “By the way, Haiqiao, let me tell you, when you get home later…”

Before she could finish, Lu Haiqiao heard Lu Wanxin scream.

She was shocked. “Mom..

At eight o’clock in the evening, a black Volkswagen stopped in front of an international resort about forty minutes away from the city center.

The middle-aged man who got out of the passenger seat stopped the hotel concierge’s service. Then, he walked around to the back seat and opened the

car door..
