Ten minutes later, Li Qiao returned to the main hall, while Gu Chenn from Aida State threw his phone on the table, rubbed the short hairs at the back of his head, and let out a chuckle.
He had been trying to create problems for Xiao Yehui, and an opportunity had unexpectedly come so soon.

After lunch, Shang Zonghai received a call from his secretary and went out to the pharmacy.
Propped against the vine chair by the fishpond in the backyard, Li Qiao occasionally tossed fish food into the pond, her eyes reflecting the shimmering water, a picture of sheer serenity.
The man lazily crossed his legs, propping one hand against his forehead, his shirt collar slightly open; those deep, captivating eyes stared unblinkingly at Li Qiao.
Luoyu stood not far away, waiting.
The two of them didn't exchange much, but they added a touch of warm tranquility to the afternoon.
