Qu Chaowu really didn't expect that the woman he met that day, whom he was still investigating, would dare to swagger over to his door.
But if she dares to come, what am I afraid of?
You mean she went to your house?
As Qu Chaowu poured tea for Ruan Jiu, he began to talk about recent events. When Ruan Jiu asked him this question, he nodded without any expression.
Ruan Jiu tapped the table lightly with her fingers. It was quite interesting.
"Was there anything wrong with her identity information?"
Qu Chaowu waved his hand and said, "She said she was my late wife's niece. My late wife's family is all gone now. I went to the local area to inquire, and they said that there was indeed such a child, and the name and age matched. However, she was very young when she disappeared, so we can't be sure if it was her or not."
"So what are you going to do?"
After drinking the tea in front of her, seeing Qu Chaowu's unhurried demeanor, Ruan Jiu asked curiously.
"She'll eventually show her true colors. Why should I be in such a hurry? She has ulterior motives. She's the one who should be worried..."
Seemingly uninterested in continuing the conversation, and having only mentioned it to Ruan Jiu as a formality, Qu Chaowu changed the subject and asked, "Where is Shi Lingheng?"
Ruan Jiu shrugged and said, "Just think about what day of the week it is, and you'll know where he is..."
Upon hearing this, Qu Chaowu's cold demeanor from when Wen Yihan was mentioned vanished, and a slight smile crept onto his lips: "That brat..."
Back then, when he first heard about Shi Lingheng from Shi Lingyun, he was like a hedgehog with its feathers bristling. Every time Shi Lingyun mentioned this younger brother, he would look like he had a headache...
But to everyone's surprise, the little brother who used to be a headache is now capable of standing on his own and even pursuing girls.
"Oh, I see. By the way, you and he are about the same age. Do you have a girl you like?"
Qu Chaowu was unusually in a gossipy mood.
Ruan Jiu's lips twitched. Weren't we talking about serious business? How did the topic jump so quickly to gossip about me...?
"I used to have a fiancée, but she almost killed me. After that, I became single..."
He shrugged and recounted what had happened in an incredibly relaxed tone.
Qu Chaowu glanced at his watch, stood up, patted Ruan Jiu on the shoulder, and said, "There are plenty of good girls in this world. Don't let a momentary mistake leave you with a psychological shadow. Having someone worthy of your love is the most beautiful thing in the world."
Ruan Jiu: "..."
Heh, love? That's none of my business. I'm just someone who does odd jobs.
He has never truly experienced what love is.
Qu Chaowu had other things to do, so he didn't stay in the teahouse for long. But for some reason, he couldn't enjoy the quiet, fragrant taste of the tea anymore. Suddenly, he felt pitifully lonely...
Think about it now, Shi Lingheng is definitely eating and drinking at the Fan family's place, having a great time. Why is he all alone like this?
She got up, grabbed her clothes, and prepared to go to the Fan family's house. However, when she drove up to the Fan family's door, she hesitated. Could Fan Miao be there too?
The blind date that the Fan family introduced to me was one I made a huge embarrassment about last time. Wouldn't it be incredibly awkward to meet him again?
The girl might even think he's a complete idiot...
Never mind...
After hesitating for a moment, he stayed in the car and didn't move, thinking, what if we run into...
