Chapter 168: I Wish She Was Dead
Master and Senior Brothers were very mindful of the little girl’s privacy.
Even when Xing Jiuan was young, Lin Ling would be with the little girl during her afternoon naps most of the time.
As Lin Ling had a flexible work schedule, she had spent a long time in the sect. She knew a lot about Xing Jiuan’s bad habits.
There were always many small bad habits when she slept. It made them helpless and gave them a headache. They did not know what to do with her.
Xing Jiuan indeed felt cold in the middle of the night. She hugged the thin blanket and wrapped herself up like a silkworm.
She seemed to have finally warmed up, so she fell asleep again.
Xing Jiuan was going home after staying at Lin Ling’s house for two days. Coincidentally, Nan Xun had also received news that the cousin from the Huo family had asked her out.
At 6:30 PM, at a private restaurant.
It was not part of the Huo family’s business. He seemed to understand Xing Jiuan’s attitude toward the Huo family and did not want her to be unhappy.
This was a very delicious private restaurant. Xing Jiuan had been here a few times and really liked one of the desserts in this restaurant very much.
However, she had not eaten here in a long time.
Perhaps it was by chance, but this cousin of hers had ordered a few sets of Xing Jiuan’s favorite desserts before dinner.
“We still have to wait a while before the dishes are served. This dessert here is very delicious as well. You can try some,” Huo Xiaoxiao’s mother said gently.
Huo Xiaoxiao nodded wildly at the side and said, “This is really delicious. I especially like it.”
Xing Jiuan did not decline as she was here to eat anyway.
The dessert was not a large serving. She could finish it in two or three bites.
After they finished eating, they exchanged a few words. They could tell that Xing Jiuan spoke very little, but they did not make Xing Jiuan feel awkward or frustrated. They kept their conversation at a very good level.
Soon, the dishes were served.
They spoke even less.
They had come here to thank her in the first place. Huo Xiaoxiao’s parents had even prepared a gift for her. However, Xing Jiuan handed the gift back to Huo Xiaoxiao and also gave her an additional gift that she had prepared herself instead.
Without saying much after, they separated.
After Xing Jiuan went out, she received a call before she could start the car.
“Boss, someone wants to make a move on you.”
The person on the other end of the line spoke ruthlessly. “Should I go…”
“Is it her?” Xing Jiuan asked indifferently.
The other party replied, “Yes.” He obviously knew what Xing Jiuan was asking.
“There’s no need to make a move yet. However, if she wants to send any messages, stop her.”
“Okay.”
“I’m going back. Bye.”
“Alright.”
Xing Jiuan placed her phone aside and did not start the car. After a moment of silence, she smiled again.
However, this smile was extremely cold, as if it could bring one to the coldest part of a snowy mountain.
“Huo Chulan…”
Those three syllables sounded so light that they almost floated with the wind.
She started the car and left.
In the pitch-black night, a person was wearing an exquisite long dress. Her long hair fell to her waist.
“How are things going?”
“Why are you in such a hurry?” The young man’s voice was gentle and helpless.
“I really hate her.
“I wish she was dead.
“I hope to thoroughly ruin her reputation before she dies.
“I hate that she is loved by others.”
“Alright, as you wish. I’ll help you.” The young man’s voice was gentle and helpless, but it was filled with indulgence.
“You have to help me.”
“I will.”
“However…” The young man took a step forward, closing the distance between them. They were almost touching each other.
