Chen Chuan did not force it. Through the gaps in the steam rising from the hot pot, he saw the helplessness in Wang Xia's eyes.
This is a look of confusion about the future, and he used to have the same look.
"Have you made friends yet?"
Wang Xia was stunned, then smiled bitterly.
"I don't like those who are too ugly, and those who are too handsome don't like me."
"Hahaha, very true. So you've been single for several years?"
"Yeah, I don't want to compromise, but I don't have the ability to meet high-quality opposite sex."
Wang Xia looked at Shen Chuan steadily.
"And you?"
"I..."
Chen Chuan smiled and said, "I won't say anything."
He really didn't know how to start. He couldn't say that he was playing two girls at a time and had his cake and eat it too, right?
Wang Xia seemed to understand something and said no more.
After that, the two of them ate and talked about the past like ordinary friends.
Halfway through the meal, Wang Xia suddenly asked for a bottle of wine.
If Shen Chuan remembered correctly, she didn't drink.
Facts proved that he was not wrong. After two glasses of beer, Wang Xia's cheeks were already red and she looked a little tipsy.
Perhaps it was the alcohol that gave her courage, Wang Xia was no longer so restrained in her speech after that.
Chen Chuan didn't let her drink too much, worried that it would affect her work in the afternoon.
Wang Xia said, "I don't want to go to work today. Chen Chuan, I haven't been to a movie in three years. Can you go to the movies with me?"
Chen Chuan hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and agreed.
Seeing that he agreed, her face was filled with joy.
After a long time, the meal was over and Wang Xia was the first to pay the bill.
After that, the two went downstairs, and Shen Chuan invited Wang Xia to ride in his car again.
This time, Wang Xia did not refuse.
After she got in the car, she closed her eyes for a minute or two. When she opened her eyes again, she let out a long sigh.
If you look closely, his eyes seem different from before.
The two spent the afternoon in the cinema.
After watching the movie, the two sat in a cafe and drank a cup of coffee.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the two went to the street to eat barbecue again.
By now, it was ten o'clock in the evening.
Shen Chuan offered to take her back, and Wang Xia nodded silently.
Half an hour later, Shen Chuan took her to the community near the vocational college.
"Have you always lived here?"
"Yeah, the rent here is cheap, it's just right for me living alone."
"It's cheap, but I'm afraid the security isn't very good. As a girl living here, you have to be careful."
"It's okay. Apart from the occasional battery theft, I haven't encountered any other problems."
Chen Chuan nodded, then waved: "Goodbye then."
Wang Xia looked at him in a daze.
"Chen Chuan, we..."
At this moment, Chen Chuan's phone rang. He smiled apologetically and answered the call.
"Who?"
"Qin Xiwu is in danger!"
"What do you mean?" Chen Chuan looked shocked. "Speak clearly!"
Beep beep beep.
Before he could ask clearly, the phone was hung up.
When I called again, the other party's phone was turned off.
Chen Chuan frowned. The call just now was from an unfamiliar number. The other party deliberately lowered the voice, so he couldn't tell who it was.
"What danger could Qin Xiwu be in?"
Chen Chuan was puzzled, but he would rather believe it than not, even if he found out later that it was a prank.
As soon as he thought of this, he immediately said: "Wang Xia, I have something else to do, see you next time!"
After saying that, he immediately got back into the car, stepped on the accelerator and sped away.
Watching the Lamborghini disappear into the vast night, Wang Xia subconsciously reached out to hold it back.
After a while, she sighed and murmured, "Our fate has ended..."
......
On the overpass, Chen Chuan immediately called Qin Xiwu.
But to his surprise, no one answered the phone.
His heart skipped a beat, and he found Qin Haowen's phone number and called him.
Fortunately, Qin Haowen finally answered the phone.
"Haowen, can you contact your sister now?"
"What do you mean? If you want to contact her, just call her yourself."
"Stop talking nonsense and try calling your sister right now to see if anyone answers! Hurry up and contact me right away!"
He hung up the phone, feeling a little anxious.
In less than 30 seconds, Qin Haowen called.
"How is it, did she answer the phone?"
"Strange, no one answered the phone."
"Didn't answer? Fuck! A stranger just called me on my phone, saying your sister is in danger. I'm on my way to Xiangshan International Airport right now."
"What!"
"Is my sister in danger?"
Qin Haowen's voice suddenly rose.
"I hope it's a prank!"
"Keep calling. If no one answers within ten minutes, call the police immediately. Got it?"
"I see!"
......
Xiangshan International, villa 016.
The shrill ringtone of the cell phone echoed in the dark living room, but no one answered.
Outside a room on the second floor of the villa, a short man wearing a baseball cap and a mask was walking with heavy steps and panting, pounding on a bedroom door.
Bang bang bang!
The man in the baseball cap slammed the door, and a cold light flashed on his hand. Upon closer inspection, it was an extremely sharp butcher knife.
"Open the door! Open the door! Open the door!"
The man in the baseball cap made weak noises as he hammered on the door.
Judging from his voice, he seems to be terminally ill.
Inside the house, Qin Xiwu's face was pale.
She brought the bedside table from inside the room and pressed it against the door.
