Chapter 5241: Not Related
Just when Lu Xiaoxiao was puzzled, she noticed someone approaching, and she immediately turned her head and looked back.
Seeing the gray cat walking towards her, she asked the gray cat, "Do you have any clues?"
"No."
"Then let's go back first and talk about it tomorrow."
Although Gray Cat felt something was strange when he heard Lu Xiaoxiao's words, he did not think too much about it. Instead, he left the French Concession with Lu Xiaoxiao and returned to the Peace Hotel.
At about twelve o'clock in the morning, Lu Xiaoxiao saw that Gray Cat and the others were asleep, so she opened the window and jumped down, quickly rushing towards the house where Granny Cai and Foreman Xie were. "
When she rushed to the door of the house, she saw that the lights were on, and it was obvious that no one had gone to bed yet.
So she released her mental power to investigate the situation inside the house.
I saw Granny Cai and Foreman Xie sitting face to face, drinking tea and chatting. It looked weird no matter how I looked at it, as if they were waiting for someone.
So she decided to go in and take a look.
She did it right away. She climbed over the wall into the yard, then walked into the house through the main door.
“Here I come.”
"haven't seen you for a long time."
"It's been several years since we last met. If it weren't for Old Xie, I'm afraid we would never see each other again in this life."
"What do you mean by that?"
"I'm tired, so I'll go back to the house and rest. Let Lao Xie tell you."
When Lu Xiaoxiao heard what Grandma Cai said, she said "OK". After Grandma Cai went back to the house, she looked at Foreman Xie and signaled him to speak quickly.
"Don't worry, sit down and have some tea first."
"No, just say it directly."
When Foreman Xie heard what Lu Xiaoxiao said, he stopped pouring tea, put down the kettle in his hand and said to Lu Xiaoxiao: "Professor Gui learned the face-changing technique from Lao Cai, which is also the reason why Lao Cai took the initiative to find me.
But Lao Cai said she didn’t know how Professor Gui learned it, because she had retired long ago and hadn’t helped people change their faces for decades.”
After hearing what Foreman Xie said, Lu Xiaoxiao felt completely confused, because he had never thought that the matter of the ghost professor was related to Grandma Cai. What was going on?
However, she did not completely believe what Foreman Xie said, because Foreman Xie had a certain filter for Granny Cai, but she did not.
So this matter remains to be investigated.
But he did not show it on the surface, and asked Foreman Xie: "Do you want to go back to the hotel with me?"
"Let's go back together."
"Then let's go. If we go back sooner, Gray Cat and the others will be relieved sooner."
When Foreman Xie heard what Lu Xiaoxiao said, he nodded and walked out of the house with Lu Xiaoxiao.
After they left the house, Lu Xiaoxiao saw Foreman Xie repeatedly looking back at the house, so she asked him knowingly, "Grandma Cai is the person you've been looking for, right?"
"How do you know?"
"From your behavior, I can tell that you are not someone who trusts others easily. Since you dared to risk your life and leave the restaurant with Granny Cai, it proves that Granny Cai is very important to you."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Foreman Xie's face turned red unconsciously, but fortunately it was night time, so he didn't have to worry about Lu Xiaoxiao seeing him blushing.
So he coughed twice before speaking to Lu Xiaoxiao, "Lao Cai and I were childhood sweethearts, but later on we separated due to some reasons.
It was not until I returned to Beijing this time that I got some information about her, and that’s why I frequently came to Hai City to look for her.”
