Chapter 123 Xia Qianqing's Call



This world has never been something that can be broken by anger.

Anger without reason is stupid.

Maybe I understand this.

Louis returned to normal. He stood in front of Dong Yao's body in a daze. Tears slowly came out of his eyes: "I'm sorry, Sister Dong, I can't have your wedding candy."

Mu Huanyu walked to Louis' side. He also had tears in his eyes at this moment, and his body was straight but looked shabby.

He put his hands on Louis' shoulders and said nothing.

It seemed as if he was not the one providing Louis with support, but rather he was the one leaning on Louis.

That's true. Twenty-four hours ago, he was just an ordinary person.

Just an ordinary person who is looking forward to the future.

......

"Manager, you're back..."

Cui Sihai, who was grilling skewers, shouted enthusiastically to Louis who had just walked in.

Li Mishuang, who was serving food to the guests at the table, also raised his eyebrows and shouted, "Welcome back, Manager."

"Um."

Louis nodded, his face didn't look very good. He walked straight to the stairs and went upstairs without looking back.

He opened the door to his room.

“Ding ding ding—”

The phone rang.

Louis picked up the phone subconsciously. His lips were a little dry, and he asked, "Any clues?"

"Clues? Louis, what clues?" Xia Qianqing's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Louis was startled, looked at the title on the phone, sat down on the big bed, and slowly took the family photo from the head of the bed with his other hand.

I looked at the family photo, then glanced at the name displayed on the phone in my hand.

A chill ran through his heart.

He couldn't imagine whether he would fall into the abyss if such a thing really happened again.

...Just like he never thought that Sister Dong Yao would be killed by a superpower.

For Louis, this time, it is not just a case, but also a test of his bottom line.

No one is allowed to touch his reverse scale.

"Mom and Dad... maybe it's right for you to leave."

Louis muttered.

"What are you mumbling about? What happened to your uncle and aunt?" Xia Qianqing's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"My parents abandoned me in Linjiang and went abroad." Louis did not tell the truth.

Because it’s actually quite embarrassing.

Lost by my parents.

No more.

Became an abandoned child.

Who can bear this?

It’s better to make the excuse that you went abroad. After all, maybe you really did go abroad.

"Really? Then aren't you alone now? You're so lonely, empty, and cold. You won't go for a foot bath, will you?"

"Ahem." Louis coughed violently a few times, "What are you talking about? What a mess. Oh, you haven't told me what you wanted to tell me by calling me."

"...You can't call me, really. If you don't want to talk to me, just hang up."

"You missed me, that's why you said so much."

"Who, who, who! I missed you! Louis, how come you have become so shameless after not seeing you for a few days? I just haven't talked to you for a long time, and I want to confirm with you in case you forget me. Who told you not to call me after being home for two days? Hey, am I your girlfriend?!"

"Of course, it's just that a lot of things happened recently and I'm still a little bit depressed." Louis' voice was a little melancholy.

"Your parents are just going abroad, aren't you lonely? You want to find a woman, and you're beating around the bush."

Louis coughed lightly: "No."

"Knock, knock, knock—Manager, have you had your lunch? Do you need us to cook for you?"

Li Mishuang's voice came from outside the door.

At this moment, the sound in the house remained silent for two seconds.

"Well, Sister Li, just ask Brother Sihai to make some barbecued skewers." A few beads of sweat appeared on Louis' forehead.

I hope Xia Qianqing won't misunderstand?

Li Mishuang is really something, he came at the perfect time.

You came on time, right?

"Hehe." Xia Qianqing's sneer came from the other end of the phone, but it was just a sneer.

Louis explained: "Don't get me wrong, I'm just a shop assistant. I just hired him today."

"Knock knock knock - Manager, my room is opposite yours, right?" Li Mishuang's voice came from outside the door again.

Damn it! No, sister, could you please stop taking advantage of others?

Louis' voice choked.

"Live...across from you?" Xia Qianqing's gritted teeth voice came from Louis' phone.

"No, no, no, Xia Qianqing, listen to my explanation. It's not what you think. I have extra rooms in my store, so I gave them to my employees. This room I live in was originally my room, but Li Mishuang just happened to live across from me."

"Knock, knock, knock—Manager, Cui Sihai asked him if the room was the one inside."

"Yes, yes, yes! Brother Sihai lives in the inner room. That room is big and has a bed. It's made of iron and won't collapse."

Louis' eyes lit up, and he explained with a double meaning why Li Mishuang lived opposite him, and emphasized the existence of Cui Sihai.

"Well, okay." Li Mishuang's voice came from outside the door again.

Louis' heart skipped a beat at first, but then he calmed down after hearing these words.

Xia Qianqing's voice came from the other end of the phone at this moment: "Louis, what are you explaining?"

“???” Louis was confused. It was because he heard you sneer and was afraid that you would think too much, so he explained.

Now you ask me what I should explain...

Damn, I won’t explain it???
