“Yes, it’s the park neighborhood,” Lin Jingqi regained her composure and glanced outside.
“Please lead the way. We have some business to attend to here. Once we’re finished, well arrange for your return,” the chauffeur said eagerly.
“Sure, thank you!” Liuli turned to the chauffeur and responded with a smile.
They both stepped out of the car and proceeded towards their destination.
As they walked into the neighborhood, Liuli clasped her hands behind her back and waved.
During their stroll from the neighborhood entrance to Shi Shi’s apartment, Lin Jingqi and Liuli engaged in a conversation about Tang Moxi.
“Liuli, that charming man beside you earlier was quite intriguing!”
“Is that so?” Liuli couldn’t comprehend why.
He seemed preoccupied about her visiting her classmate’s place and had concocted a pretext to have the chauffeur bring them here!
He was even more bothersome than her own mother!
“Yes, indeed. Moreover, despite chatting with you, he wasn’t incessantly staring at you!”
“Perhaps he finds me unattractive!” Liuli retorted irritably.
Didn’t he claim she was merely good-looking?
Of course, he had observed every aspect of her appearance.
“If you were unattractive, how would I survive?” Lin Jingqi chuckled.
“No, everyone has their own preferences. Some individuals will find you beautiful!”
“Don’t tease me. I genuinely believe that man was quite pleasant. He possessed both handsomeness and elegance, along with a kind heart!” Lin Jingqi insisted.
“Don’t place too much trust in strangers. Be cautious, or you might fall victim to scams!”
He had a kind heart? It was all a facade.
Since when did Lin Jingqi become a poet?
“Why did you force me into the car earlier then?” Lin Jingqi argued with Liuli.
“I was being cautious, but 1 won’t take such risks in the future.
Safety should always be a priority. Even if you’re taking a taxi alone, make sure to share the license plate number with your family!”
Lin Jingqi didn’t challenge this point and simply nodded, smiling.
“I never expected you to have such a cautious side.”
“It’s not about being timid, but it’s wise to be more careful!” Liuli retorted.
“That man seemed genuinely fond of his fiancee!” Lin Jingqi continued.
“How can you tell?” Liuli asked, surprised.
How could Lin Jingqi perceive that Mr. Tang had feelings for her?
Why didn’t she sense anything?
“Although he claimed his fiancee was merely satisfactory,
He was actually just being humble!
Didn’t you see how gentle his smile was when he said that?
“He must genuinely adore his fiancee. That’s why his smile was so gentle,” Lin Jingqi said with envy.
“Do you really think he was mocking her?” Liuli rolled her eyes and questioned.
“How is that possible? I’m not naive. I can distinguish between a mocking smile and a gentle one,” Lin Jingqi defended.
“Jingqi, I had no idea you were so perceptive!”
Lin Jingqi blushed, unable to come up with a retort. She felt so embarrassed that she remained speechless.
“I was just teasing you. Is this Shi Shi’s house?” Liuli asked.
If Liuli hadn’t wanted to keep her upcoming marriage a secret from Lin Jingqi, she wouldn’t have caused so much trouble earlier. She could have asked Mr. Tang to bring them here and simply informed Lin Jingqi that he was her partner.
It would have been straightforward, if a bit crude.
There wouldn’t have been so much fuss.
“Block 7. It should be this one,” Lin Jingqi glanced at it and confirmed.
The two of them stood downstairs, pressing the doorbell repeatedly, but there was no response.
“Could she be out?” Liuli turned to Lin Jingqi and inquired.
“There should be someone at home, right?” Lin Jingqi responded with uncertainty.
At this moment, a woman walked over.
Liuli hurriedly asked the woman if she knew Shi Shi, who lived on the third floor.
After that, they found out that Shi Shi’s family already moved away the day before.
Lin Jingqi and Liuli looked at each other in shock.
This was too coincidental!
The two of them turned around and looked very frustrated.
“Do you think Shi Shi has left the country?” Lin Jingqi asked Liuli.
“I don’t know either, but the woman said that Shi Shi’s family has moved away and the house has been sold. They might have already prepared to go overseas long before.” Liuli replied.
“Why didn’t she tell us if she was leaving? We are such good friends!”
“Perhaps she was too embarrassed to tell us about it?”
