Ever since she found out that Peng Yi was impersonating Lu Jinyang, he seldom went out, basically keeping to normal daily routines to accompany Xiao Qing and the others.
Although Xiao Qing had her suspicions, she didn’t overthink it. She figured he had so matters to attend to, especially since he had reminded her about those things in the afternoon.
Without lingering on it for too long, she took a bath and then burrowed into her quilt to sleep.
The next morning, as usual, she got up to send her older treasure and younger treasure to school, but just as she was about to head ho, she ran into Xiao Sewei.
"Sewei? What brings you here?"
Xiao Sewei smiled radiantly: "Qingqing, I haven’t seen you all for almost a month. I missed you guys, so I ca here to try my luck, and who would’ve thought I’d actually run into you."
With that, she took Xiao Qing’s hand, affectionately saying, "Let’s go, we can eat and chat at the place next door~" Without waiting for Xiao Qing to react, she half-pulled, half-dragged her away~
In a corner, a person dressed in black was bowing their head, waiting for the two to pass by. Once they did, he quickly took out his cellphone and dialed a number. Once the call connected, he said only one thing: "The target has appeared."
After hanging up, the black-clad person swiftly followed behind, maintaining a safe distance, eyeing the two won inside.
Xiao Sewei acted as if she was not at all estranged from Xiao Qing, instead, she was very familiar, both helping her to order food and incessantly bringing up her older treasure and younger treasure, leaving Xiao Qing extrely awkward.
"Sewei!"
She cut off her words, "Could you stop it?" From the mont they t, she hadn’t stopped talking. She was like an annoying fly that no matter how much you swatted, would not go away, utterly vexing!
Xiao Sewei paused and looked at her bewilderedly, "Qingqing, don’t you want to chat with ?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Qing’s first reaction was to nod, but she quickly shook her head, "No, that’s not it. Aren’t we supposed to be chatting? But right now, you’re the only one talking, this isn’t like a conversation at all."
Having said that, the woman across from her looked frustrated and smiled awkwardly, "Sorry, my mistake~"
Xiao Qing was at a loss for words, completely clueless as to why Xiao Sewei was acting this way today, why she’d actively sought her out and spoken so much with her.
"Qingqing, isn’t today the family gathering day? Let’s ask for leave for older treasure and younger treasure later and head over earlier," she said.
"Today?" Xiao Qing was sowhat skeptical, "Today should be tomorrow actually."
Xiao Sewei shook her head, reaffirming: "No, you rembered it wrong! Look, the family gathering day is on the 8th, and today is already the 8th." Suddenly, she let out an exclamation, "Ah, it’s almost three o’clock now, Qingqing, let’s go pick up older treasure and younger treasure right away, we can’t be late for grandfather’s place."
"Xiao Sewei!" Xiao Qing furrowed her brows, "Can you be quiet for a mont?"
Contrary to being quiet, Xiao Sewei quickly grabbed the cellphone that laid on the table, started pressing buttons as she spoke, and after a few taps, she handed the phone to her, "Look! You rembered it wrong."
Xiao Qing’s frown deepened further, her worries intensifying to the point they seed insurmountable. She had checked in the morning before leaving the house, clearly rembering it was the 7th and not the 8th.
"No, that’s not right, it’s impossible, Xiao Sewei, you are the one who made a mistake."
"But the ti and date displayed on my phone and your phone are the sa."
"This..."
Without giving Xiao Qing a chance to hesitate, Xiao Sewei dragged Xiao Qing towards the school...
Sitting in the car on the way back to the Xiao Mansion, Xiao Qing still couldn’t figure it out. Today was clearly the 7th, so how did it suddenly beco the 8th?
A spark of realization flashed by, and Xiao Qing suddenly widened her eyes, "Xiao Sewei, is it you... Ah!..."
Accompanied by Xiao Qing’s scream, the car swerved abruptly and crashed into a large tree beside it. Due to the huge impact, the tree was uprooted and crashed down directly onto the roof of the car...
