Chapter 110 - 110: Drop Hints
It was obvious that Xie Wensheng was unwilling to continue.
Xie Xuan didn’t say anything else. He placed the chair back and said, “Dad, have some rest.” Then, he left the room.
A servant was waiting at the bedroom door.
Xie Xuan glanced at him and casually asked, “By the way, I heard that Father was ambushed on his way to the appointment. What about his friends? Did you inform the other party? Did you keep them waiting?”
This was Xie Wensheng’s old servant who had followed him for many years. He was the right person to ask
The servant bowed. “Young Master, are you referring to Mr. Lu?” Hearing this, Xie Xuan frowned. “Which Mr. Lu?”
The servant replied, “Mr. Lu Jianyuan, the richest man in Country F.”
Xie Xuan was surprised
So his father knew Lu Jianyuan.
But that wasn’t right.
He mentioned Lu Jianyuan in the conversation in the room just now, but his father’s reaction didn’t seem like he knew the man.
“Did you inform Mr. Lu?” Xie Xuan asked.
The servant nodded. “Mr. Lu came to visit after knowing that something had happened to the Master. He must have something urgent. He only stayed for a while before leaving.”
“Is he still in Country M?” Xie Xuan asked again.
The servant shook his head gently. “I heard that he returned to Country F in the afternoon.
Why was he in such a hurry?
After thinking for a moment, Xie Xuan waved his hand. “Alright, I understand.”
The servant said respectfully, “Young Master, please have some rest. I will watch over your father. Don’t worry.”
Xie Xuan’s bedroom was opposite Xie Wensheng.
The moment he pushed the door open, he felt his phone vibrate.
He took it out and saw a WeChat message from Lu Haiqiao.
Lu Haiqiao said, “Thank you for the food. I like it very much.”
He glanced at the time on the upper left corner of the screen. It was less than half an hour before they delivered.
Very efficient.
He then pressed the voice call button. The special ringtone rang for two seconds before the girl’s crisp voice came out of the receiver. “Xuan, why aren’t you asleep yet?”
Although Lu Haiqiao’s voice was low, her tone was soft and sweet. It warmed Xie Xuan’s heart.
“You… What did you call me?” This was the first time he heard her call him that, and Xie Xuan felt like he was in a dream.
Lu Haiqiao chuckled. “Xuan, what’s wrong? Don’t you like it?”
“You can call me whatever you want. I like whatever you saye.” He remembered that Zhou Nuo was also used to calling him “Xuan.” When he returned this time, he would definitely get that Zhou guy to change the way he addressed him.
Lu Haiqiao took a sip of water.
The time displayed in the bottom right corner of the office computer was 12:30
p.m.
Counting the time difference, it was already late at night in Country M.
She went back to the original topic. “You’ve been flying for so long. Why aren’t you resting?”
Xie Xuan walked to the bed and sat down.
He leaned against the head of the bed and crossed his legs, his posture lazy and casual.
“I just talked to my dad.”
“Is your father alright? Is he feeling better?” Lu Haiqiao asked.
Xie Xuan’s hoarse voice was filled with laughter. “If my father knows that his son’s girlfriend is asking after him, I think he’ll recover very quickly.”
Lu Haiqiao quickly corrected him. “Hey, Mr. Xie, I need to remind you that before you officially say those words, we’re not a couple yet. Girlfriend? Who are you referring to? So you already have a girlfriend?”
One could imagine how mischievous and adorable Lu Haiqiao’s expression was when she said those words.
Xie Xuan smiled.. “So you’re hinting for me to come back quickly and confess my love to you?”
