Once the person on the other end hears her greeting, he hangs up .
An Chuxia stares at her mobile when she hears the busy tone . It’s nothing but a phone prank . Her hand is on the door handle of the bathroom stall when she hears conversation on the other side .
“What’s Xiang Mankuai and young master Qilu’s relationship?”
“Right? If you’re a couple, why would you bring another date? It seems she left halfway . No one knows where she went . ”
“She probably knows Mankuai is arriving, so she left . Although his date is pretty, how can she compare to that big starlet?”
“Oh man, there’s no comparison . ”
The conversation doesn’t last long . Once the water from the faucet stops running, and the clicking of high heels disappear, her facial expression changes, her self-deprecating smile is painted on her face .
Yes, men are the least reliable . Just like her biological father who now is righteous… unreliable!
Despite these agitating thoughts, she opens the door and walks out of the bathroom and onto the crowded garden . And through the throngs of people, she sees Han Qilu smile at something Mankuai says . The man with the big belly next to them is talking . She doesn’t know what they’re saying, but she can tell from their expression they’re very happy .
She has been in the bathroom for so long, Han Qilu isn’t in a hurry to leave . How naive of her to think he missed her .
Then, she hears her ringtone again, she answers her phone without looking at it .
“Is this Miss Xia?” The voice sounds familiar, but she can’t place it .
Her eyes fall on Han Qilu as she replies on the phone . “This is she . Who’s this?”
There is a pause before the conversation continues . “Remember one afternoon, you helped a person with blood on his face, and you loaned him twenty yuan?”
As soon as the conversation becomes about money, her memory is jogged .
That was the afternoon Ling Hanyu kicked her out because of the words she said, so she walked to the park, and eventually, encountered the bloodied person… .
She, indeed, remembers! That person owes her more than that! Of course she can’t forget that much money . = . = Moreover, this person threw away the IOU note she wrote with her contact information!
“Are you… are you in the United States?” She looks at her phone screen and is surprised . Can twenty yuan actually get you to the United States? That’s some power!
“Yeah . ”
She hears him say, “Are you in the US? Would you have time to meet?”
“I… . ” She wants to say she doesn’t have the time, but once she sees Mankuai reach for a glass of wine and smile at Han Qilu, she turns and leaves . “I have time . Where are you? I’m at Mr . Nuewei’s house . ”
The devil (in Chuxia) is awakened, and for that reason, An Chuxia leaves in anger . She doesn’t even think about hanging up on the man whom she’s told she’s at the Nuewei’s residence, nor how she is leaving this house . Although many look at her strangely, no one stops her . She walks toward the front door .
