Moli Restaurant.
Ou Jue strode in, his Obsidian-like eyes sweeping across the room.
Xia Shiyi stood up excitedly, "Ou Shao... You actually ca, I’m so happy."
With a mocking tug at the corner of his mouth, Ou Jue stepped forward and imdiately confronted her, "What did you say to Xia Xiyan?"
Xia Shiyi looked innocent, "I don’t understand what you an..."
"Whether you understand or not doesn’t matter. I’m here to clearly inform you, stay far away from from now on! No matter what thod you used to persuade Xia Xiyan to speak up for you, I have absolutely no interest in you!"
Xia Shiyi hadn’t expected that the man she had been longing for finally ca to her appointnt, only to make it clear he wanted nothing to do with her!
Why?
Her eyes reddened slightly, "Ou Shao, I really like you... Why can’t you try to accept ? If you don’t try to get to know , how can you be so sure you won’t like ?"
Known for his aloof deanor in front of others, Ou Jue was now even less inclined to waste words with her.
He turned around and walked away without hesitation.
"Don’t leave..." Xia Shiyi quickly stepped forward, hugging Ou Jue’s arm with a pitiful pleading, "Today is my birthday, I just wanted to celebrate with the person I like most. Please grant this wish, Ou Shao, I’m begging you... just one al is all I ask."
Ou Jue lowered his gaze, his voice infused with frosty coldness, "Scram!"
A single word, clean and decisive.
He pulled back his arm harshly, exuding an oppressive aura as he left.
"Why is this happening..." Xia Shiyi collapsed into the chair, covering her face in tears.
It must be Xia Xiyan’s doing.
It had to be her!
Why is it that when Ou Xiaoluo went missing because of Xia Xiyan, no one blad Xia Xiyan?!
So what was the point of her and Xueying kidnapping Ou Xiaoluo?
All at once, the sting of rejection, frustration, resentnt...
All of it flooded Xia Shiyi’s mind!
Why does soone like Xia Xiyan exist in this world?
If only Xia Xiyan didn’t exist in this world!
Then Ou Shao... Wouldn’t he like her instead?!
Her eyes filled with hatred as she dialed a number, "Hello? Have you prepared my stuff? Okay, I’m coming to get it!"
With that, she grabbed her bag and left the table full of exquisite dishes behind.
Just after hailing a taxi and getting in, Luo Xueying’s call ca through.
Xia Shiyi answered, not waiting for Luo Xueying to speak before she said directly, "Chuxia Road 225, co et there right away! Don’t ask anything, we’ll talk face-to-face!"
Fifteen minutes later, the two managed to et up.
Xia Shiyi asked, "Did you lock the door properly when you left?"
"It’s locked. I tied up Ou Xiaoluo; he’s alone at ho."
"Good." Xia Shiyi nodded, "Now call Xia Xiyan and lure her out. We’ll settle accounts with her once and for all!"
Having endured the tornt of the day, Luo Xueying’s ntal defenses were already crumbling.
"Shiyi, I really don’t understand what’s in your head right now. Why kidnap Ou Xiaoluo and then expose to Xia Xiyan that we’re behind this? If Xiaoluo is rescued, Xia Xiyan will absolutely turn us in without rcy, and we’ll end up in prison!"
A gust of wind blew past, and Xia Shiyi’s expression turned sinister, "Then—let’s make sure Xia Xiyan will never speak again!"
