Chapter 198: Chapter 198: He Knows!
Qiao Yun didn’t sleep well that night, possibly because she had seen an old friend, and she had a long-lost dream about her grandfather.
As a result, when she got up the next day, the area beneath her eyes was somewhat dark.
She sat on the bed for a while before taking out her phone to send a message to Li Hanzhou.
“Good morning.”
Not long after the message was sent, her phone rang.
Qiao Yun hesitated for only a second and then answered it.
“Why did you think to send me a good morning message?”
Qiao Yun told Li Hanzhou, “You said it yourself, friends should keep in touch more.”
Li Hanzhou laughed softly, “Being so good?”
Qiao Yun didn’t realize she was being teased and frowned slightly, “Why don’t you say it?”
“Say what?”
“I wished you good morning, and you didn’t respond.”
Li Hanzhou laughed again, the fearsome Professor Qiao was actually not scary at all but seriously cute.
“Little friend, good morning.”
The man’s voice was low, lazy, magnetic, and pleasant to hear.
Qiao Yun was pleased, today she had again solidified her friendship with a good friend.
“Where are you, I’ll come pick you up.”
Li Hanzhou suddenly felt the urge to see the little friend.
“No…”
Before Qiao Yun could refuse outright, he added, “You promised Shen Qi to help him solve a problem, one must not be untrustworthy.”
Qiao Yun certainly remembered, and after hesitating for a moment, she agreed.
She was very credible.
Li Hanzhou asked for the address and told Qiao Yun to wait for him, then turned around and called Shen Qi.
“Come out.”
“Brother Li, go out for what?”
Shen Qi had stayed up all night writing software and had just fallen asleep when he was woken up, still dazed.
“Aren’t you having problems you want to discuss with the little friend? I’m giving you an opportunity, no need to thank me.”
Shen Qi: ???
For some reason, he had the illusion of being used as a tool.
Qiao Yun got herself ready and left the room.
Lu Zhanxing saw Qiao Yun and handed her a cup of milk.
Qiao Yun cradled the milk and took a sip while looking down.
Lu Zhanxing kept his gaze on her, trying not to look like he was holding a tribunal, and was about to ask about the invitation matter.
But Qiao Yun spoke first: “I need to go out later.”
Lu Zhanxing swallowed his question and said, “Okay, where do you want to go, brother will take you.”
“By myself,” Qiao Yun shook her head, “someone is picking me up.”
“Who is picking you up!?”
Lu Zhanxing’s eyes widened.
His little sister had just arrived in Hai City, how could she know anyone? Was she being deceived by someone?
“Li Hanzhou.” Qiao Yun said this unfazed: “We’re good friends, I promised him something yesterday, and I need to honor that.”
“It’s him.” Lu Zhanxing was relieved.
He often heard his mother say, ‘Today, Miss Li took her sister out again’, their relationship is very close, and Li Hanzhou is really nice to his sister.
In the past, he hadn’t realized just how nice that was, but now, being in Hai City, it appears it’s truly good.
Because his mother often said Li Hanzhou treated his sister like his own, Lu Zhanxing gradually came to believe that Li Hanzhou had no ill intentions towards Qiao Yun.
Suddenly, Lu Zhanxing remembered something and said, “You met him yesterday?”
“We met at the party,” Qiao Yun said honestly.
“A party?”
A flash of insight struck him, and Lu Zhanxing sat up straight.
He realized!
The Lu family didn’t have an invitation, but his sister had one, a very precious one, yet where did she get it from?
It must have been given by someone!
And who else could it be but someone with a high status!
He hadn’t known before, but now he had a suspect—Li Hanzhou!
