Xia Yangyang pouted, “I don’t want to go back.”
Shen Shichuan took off his coat and put it on Xia Yangyang’s shoulders. “No matter what happened, get in the car first. It’s too cold here.”
It was already mid-December and the bitter cold wind was blowing.
Xia Yangyang was only wearing an evening dress.
Her whole body was freezing and turned red, but she felt nothing.
After getting in the car, Shen Shichuan asked, “Where to?”
Where to?
Xia Yangyang was at a loss.
Where should she go?
Shen Shichuan said, “Never mind, let take you to eat sothing first.”
Shen Shichuan took her to a private porridge shop.
The shop was hidden in an inconspicuous residential area, hardly noticeable to ordinary people.
But the environnt was elegant and tranquil.
Especially their seafood porridge, so fresh it was absolutely delicious.
Xia Yangyang had no appetite initially, but the savory and piping hot seafood porridge made her end up eating more than half of it.
After finishing her al, she felt warm in her hands and feet. It seed like she ca back to herself.
“What exactly happened? Didn’t you go to the auction dinner tonight? The necklace around your neck must be ‘Heart of the Kingdom’, right? I rember this necklace was not up for auction?”
Shen Shichuan naturally knew about her schedule; after all, he was the one who arranged all her work.
Xia Yangyang didn’t know what to say.
There were so things she didn’t want to talk about.
After all, Shen Shichuan was Shen Manbing’s brother.
Regardless of whether Shen Manbing had set her up, she didn’t want to stir up feelings between the siblings without any proof.
This was a different matter.
Xia Yangyang said, “Don’t ask anymore, I don’t want to talk about it for now.”
Shen Shichuan poured Xia Yangyang a cup of hot tea. “It’s fine if you don’t want to talk to , but you can’t just not go ho. Ah Chen is about to go mad searching for you.”
Xia Yangyang frowned.
How did he know that Gu Qichen was looking for her?
Does it an that they were in contact before he appeared in front of her?
A sense of unease erged in Xia Yangyang’s heart.
Sure enough, right after Shen Shichuan had said this.
Gu Qichen appeared at the door.
Xia Yangyang didn’t know what to say, she just glared at Shen Shichuan.
Shen Shichuan chuckled, “I couldn’t just let you wander around alone. I called Ah Chen to co over and pick you up. Whatever you need to say, sort it out between yourselves.”
Having said that, he got up, took his car keys and left.
At the door, he patted Gu Qichen’s shoulder, “Have a good talk.”
After he said that, Shen Shichuan left.
Gu Qichen stood at the door for a while, then walked in. He looked sullen, and his face revealed no emotions.
Xia Yangyang turned away, without uttering a word.
“Why didn’t you wait for ?” Gu Qichen asked, his voice grave.
“Because I was very curious about what Shen Manbing wanted to say to you?”
“So you heard our conversation in the garden?”
Xia Yangyang turned back to look at Gu Qichen in the eye, “Yes, I heard everything.”
Gu Qichen was silent for a mont, “Then why are you angry? I never suspected that you stole the necklace.”
Xia Yangyang responded sarcastically, “Yeah, because I don’t have that kind of ability.”
Gu Qichen furrowed his brows, “Are you angry because of this one sentence?”
“Gu Qichen, if I say it was Shen Manbing who put the necklace in my handbag to fra , will you believe ?”
