BXBX NOVEL Chapter 129 - 129: You Don ‘t Like Me
When the car was about to reach the magazine agency, Lu Haiqiao suddenly said, “Can we pull over?”
She looked out the window and pointed to a convenience store on the street. “Just over there.”
However, Xie San didn’t seem to hear him. He stepped on the accelerator and continued forward.
It wasn’t until Xie Xuan said “Stop the car” that he slowed down and stopped in a parking space.
Lu Haiqiao said, “Wait for me in the car. I’ll go get a cup of coffee.”
Xie Xuan said, “I’ll go with you.”
Lu Haiqiao said, “There’s no need. It’s so hot outside. You’ll get a sunburn.”
In the end, Xie Xuan stayed in the car.
But Xie San followed.
That was because Xie Xuan had given the order to “protect her”.
After entering the convenience store, Lu Haiqiao stood in front of the shelves and scanned the rows of bottled black coffee.
Suddenly, she turned to look at Xie San and said calmly, “Have I met you somewhere before?”
Although Xie San’s expression was cold, from his deliberate act of looking away, it was obvious that he was very resistant to talking to Lu Haiqiao.
However, he remembered Xie Er’s reminder.
Miss Lu was the person Boss liked. Now that the two of them had confirmed their relationship, Xie San had to be polite in front of her.
Hence, he asked, “Why do you say that, Miss Lu?”
Her fingers brushed past the row of bottles on the top shelf. Finally, Lu Haiqiao chose the bottle placed in the corner.
She checked the ingredients list, and there was only water and black coffee.
After making her decision, she turned sideways. When she brushed past Xie
San and went to the cashier, she said, “I think you don’t like me.”
There weren’t many people at the cashier. Xie San followed and stood beside Lu
Haiqiao. He said, “That’s right.”
Xie San didn’t like to talk, but as long as he answered, he would definitely tell the truth.
When it was Lu Haiqiao’s turn, she handed over the coffee. After the scanner beeped, she asked, “Why?”
Xie San didn’t reply immediately.
When he followed Lu Haiqiao out of the convenience store, he said, “A rich young lady who needs the protection of the people around her isn’t worthy of being Master’s future partner.”
Hearing this, Lu Haiqiao stopped in her tracks.
Need the protection of the people around her?
It was very obvious who he was talking about.
She stayed where she was, unscrewed the cap of the black coffee, and took a sip.
“So, you were there that night?” She referred to the night when she encountered the hooligans outside the gym.
Xie San lowered his eyes and didn’t answer.
Lu Haiqiao knew that she had guessed correctly.
She glanced at the Audi S8 parked not far away. “Did Xuan ask you to follow
Xie San still didn’t answer her.
After a few seconds, Lu Haiqiao smiled. Then, she said slowly, “Let’s go. I can’t let my future partner wait too long.”
Xie San, who was looking at her, was speechless.
Just now, he deliberately said the word “not worthy” to give this young lady some pressure.
Unexpectedly, she didn’t seem to care at all, or perhaps she didn’t realize what kind of background the person she called her “future partner” had.
Thinking of this, Xie San frowned slightly.
She was a weak woman who knew how to race well, but she was still a little too naive.
After work, Lu Haiqiao told Xie Xuan that she would go home for dinner. Then, she packed his things and left the office building.
Just as she stepped out of the elevator, she received a call from Lu Yunge.
She thought he would probably talk about Xie Xuan again, so when she picked it up, she said impatiently, “Hey, what are you trying to say this time?”
