Xie Baola was about to hang up her phone when she saw the na that appeared; she still answered, "Jiashu."
Chen Jiayan narrowed his eyes.
"Paula, have you co back?" Qu Jiashu knew that Xie Baola had gone to Holy Mountain, and even saw the Monts she had posted.
"On my way back, what’s up?"
Qu Jiashu, "Have dinner together?"
Xie Baola leaned against the chair back, her gaze still fixed on Chen Jiayan, "Just got back, but I’ve already made plans with friends. Maybe next ti."
"That’s fine then."
Qu Jiashu suddenly called out to her, "Paula."
"Hmm? What is it?"
"Wingsuit flying is too dangerous; you should play less in the future. Uncle Xie would be worried too."
Qu Jiashu was worried about her getting into an accident but used Xie Qian as an excuse.
"I know my limits."
Xie Baola ended the call after saying that.
She didn’t like others ddling in her hobbies.
A person without anything to look forward to is no different from a walking corpse, isn’t it?
Xie Baola suddenly understood why Chen Jiayan was afraid of Qiao Xi finding out that he engages in adventure sports in private.
Xixi would be worried about him.
Of course, Xixi would be worried about her too.
However, Qiao Xi had never said that she didn’t want her to engage in adventure sports or anything like that.
She understood her, and so she supported her.
Xie Baola suddenly said, "I think even if Xixi finds out you race cars or go wingsuit flying, she won’t stop you."
"I know, but I don’t want her to worry," said Chen Jiayan lightly, "so it’s best if she doesn’t know."
Xie Baola shrugged, "You still haven’t answered my earlier question."
Chen Jiayan paused for a few seconds before counter-asking, "Miss Xie doesn’t have a boyfriend?"
"To say I don’t would be lying," Xie Baola responded before swiftly changing the subject, "But I don’t at the mont; I’ve been single for over a year now."
She had been busy with her studies overseas during her last year and devoted herself entirely to learning.
Even a man couldn’t distract her from her studies.
Since returning to the country half a year ago, Xie Baola felt interested in Chen Jiayan.
But after learning about his relationship with Qiao Xi, she extinguished that thought.
It was only upon seeing him again now that this idea rushed out, unstoppable.
Indeed, those ant to et will inevitably co together.
"Oh."
Oh?
What does "oh" an?
Xie Baola least liked this kind of ambiguous attitude.
She placed her hand on Chen Jiayan’s, "How about we try dating?"
Chen Jiayan paused, rather surprised as he looked at Xie Baola, "Miss Xie, are you always so straightforward?"
"More or less."
Xie Baola tilted her head and smiled, looking quite proud.
Chen Jiayan moved her hand away, seemingly after so thought, finally said, "I’m a serious person. I don’t just fool around with anyone, and you are Xixi’s best friend. Miss Xie might want to look for soone else."
Did he think she was just looking for a fling?
Fine!
They had not t many tis, so it was natural for him to think this way.
Even now, she wasn’t clear whether she was montarily interested in this man or what exactly it was.
She believed in living for the mont.
She didn’t think that far ahead.
Xie Baola turned to look out the car window and stopped talking.
Since she hadn’t figured it out yet, she decided to suppress the thought for now.
Chen Jiayan glanced at her from the corner of his eye on seeing that she wasn’t about to speak, and they both fell silent.
The atmosphere in the car suddenly quieted down.
No one spoke for the rest of the trip.
Their dining destination was at Xiaotang Mountain.
Those who went wingsuit flying ca from wealthy families; this group of people all had money, only differing in the degree of their family’s wealth.
The car stopped outside Xiaotang Mountain.
Chen Jiayan got out of the car first. Seeing Xie Baola still sitting in her seat playing with her phone, he walked around the front of the car and opened her door.
That’s when Xie Baola got out of the car. She watched Chen Jiayan close the door, her red lips curving slightly, "Thank you."
Chen Jiayan was a real gentleman.
"You’re welco."
The others hadn’t arrived yet.
Xie Baola and Chen Jiayan went into Xiaotang Mountain first.
As they walked up the stairs, Tang Honghe happened to co out of the elevator from the other side.
Xie Baola’s profile and figure were stunning, her stride casual yet confident, very much her own style.
Tang Honghe glanced over unintentionally and felt that she looked familiar. He quickly approached the staircase and called out, "Paula."
Hearing the voice, Xie Baola turned around, and Chen Jiayan subconsciously looked back too.
Tang Honghe’s face broke into a grin, "I thought I had mistaken soone else. Are you here to hang out with friends?"
"Yeah."
Xie Baola’s hands tucked in her pockets, "Joining us?"
"No thanks, I’m here to pick up a friend."
Tang Honghe glanced at Chen Jiayan, feeling a sense of familiarity with the man but couldn’t recall where he had seen him.
Xie Baola said, "We’ll make plans so other ti."
Xie Baola and Chen Jiayan proceeded up the stairs.
As Tang Honghe walked away, his expression was conflicted.
Where had he seen that man before?
Soone who accompanies Xie Baola, yet he didn’t recognize him?
Tang Honghe got back to his car, his phone rang, and seeing the caller ID, an idea flashed through his mind.
Suddenly, he rembered the man beside Xie Baola!
Crap!
Wasn’t that the man Qu Keke had once ambitiously said she would chase after—sister-in-law’s brother?
After not having seen him for a long ti and him not being an important figure, naturally, Tang Honghe’s mory of him wasn’t as vivid.
It dawned on him now.
But why would sister-in-law’s brother be with Paula?
Lost in thought, his phone call had already been disconnected.
Tang Honghe quickly redialed.
...
Tan Garden.
Qiao Xi and Shen Dang had finished eating, and they had also finished off a bottle of red wine.
Of course, most of it had ended up in Qiao Xi’s stomach.
Qiao Xi’s cheeks were rosy, her fair face was glowing, and even her smile was more charming.
Their al cost tens of thousands.
Shen Dang moved to sit beside Qiao Xi, pinching her slender fingers, "Shall we go back? Or would you like to take a walk before we return?"
Qiao Xi felt a bit dizzy but was still conscious.
"Let’s go back."
"Okay."
Shen Dang pulled her up and led her out of Tan Garden by the hand.
Shen Dang had also been drinking, so Zhou Ge was driving them back.
The privacy partition in the car was raised.
Shen Dang brought her to sit on his lap, kissing her all the way ho.
By the ti they arrived at Sheng Birch Mansion, Qiao Xi’s legs had gone weak.
Her eyes were moist and filled with a vulnerable allure.
Paired with her face that was tinged with pink, she was so irresistible that Boss Shen’s heart began to race.
The car had stopped.
Qiao Xi wouldn’t let him get any closer.
She pushed open the door, hurried out without waiting for him, and rushed towards the building.
Shen Dang gave Zhou Ge quick instructions and followed rapidly, catching up with the fleeing Qiao Xi.
As soon as they entered the elevator, Shen Dang pinned her against the elevator wall.
Qiao Xi suddenly felt that letting this scoundrel move into her ho was a huge mistake.
But it was too late.
The outco was Shen Dang being locked out of the bedroom door by Qiao Xi.
