Zhao Lei thought they might have something to talk about, so she decided not to be a third wheel: "I'll take a taxi myself. I won't bother you."
Xia Xi didn't allow any arguments: "Get in the car."
She had also been drinking, and it was unsafe for her to take a taxi alone at night.
Zhao Lei said "Oh", slowly climbed onto the back seat and sat down properly.
Xia Xi sat in the passenger seat and just saw the elevator not far away. The noble and unparalleled man walked out. Her heart sank and began beating rapidly.
Lu Mingji strictly adhered to the principle of "performing a complete performance" and bent over to fasten Xia Xi's seat belt.
Xu Yanfeng happened to look over. From the wrong angle, the two people in the car looked like they were kissing. His eyes dimmed, and then he thought, her lips were bitten off, how could she still kiss?
Lu Mingji sat back, fastened his seat belt, started the car and drove out of the parking lot.
Zhao Lei, sitting in the back row, tried to minimize her presence, remaining silent as she secretly observed the two people in the front row. Lu Mingji didn't seem angry at all, and their relationship didn't falter.
She didn't understand.
No matter how deep the feelings are, they cannot withstand such storms.
Xia Xi looked disheveled when she walked out of the box, as if she had done it with Xu Yanfeng in the box. Doesn't her boyfriend Lu Mingji mind?
Could it be that they couldn't argue because she, an outsider, was present?
Lu Mingji broke the silence in the car: "Miss Zhao, right? Where do you live?"

Lu Mingji repeated: "Your home address."
"Oh." Zhao Lei didn't want to disturb them, so she told them the name of the subway station. "Just take me there, and I'll take the subway back by myself."
Xia Xi said, "Just do as she says."
Lu Mingji nodded.
Ling Yan was the last to arrive at the parking lot. All she could see was Xu Yanfeng's car, its red taillights flashing, as it sped away in the blink of an eye. She shouted at the top of her lungs, and the echo echoed through the empty parking lot. The car didn't stop, either because the people inside didn't hear her or simply didn't want to pay attention to her.
She raised the back of her hand to cover her eyes, but still couldn't stop the tears from flowing.
Why? No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get close to him. Why?
She was so unwilling.
Ling Yan's eyes were red and wet. She took out her cell phone and called her cousin. After the call was connected, she sniffed and tried to make her voice sound more natural: "Brother, please assign some reliable people to me. I can be of use... Don't worry, I'm fine. I just need them to help me with something."
