Chapter 1089: Chapter 63: Back to Z City
She cares so much about Gu Yan, she really cares so much!
Mr. Gu was delighted, lowered his head to look at Nie Xiaoxing.
But unexpectedly, Nie Xiaoxing rolled her eyes at him where Lu Zhiquan couldn’t see.
Gu Yan: (⊙﹏⊙)
Lu Zhiquan steadied his mind, his expression slightly gloomy, he looked at Nie Xiaoxing and Gu Yan and said, "There have been some changes, so now is not a good time to capture Yan Shu."
Nie Xiaoxing frowned.
Gu Yan squinted his eyes, looked at Lu Zhiquan but said nothing.
Lu Zhiquan clenched his fist, stared at Nie Xiaoxing, "There shouldn’t be any action in the near future."
Nie Xiaoxing looked at Lu Zhiquan, "So I’m fine now, right?"
"...You could say that." Lu Zhiquan’s eyes quickly flashed with pain, he said in a low voice.
Nie Xiaoxing nodded, "Since the police aren’t taking any action for the time being, I see no reason to stay in K City."
Lu Zhiquan fixed his eyes on Nie Xiaoxing, "K City is your hometown after all, you can choose to stay in K City."
Nie Xiaoxing quietly looked at Lu Zhiquan, "As long as Yan Shu is not caught, how can I dare to stay in K City, I’m not tired of living."
"Xiao Xing..."
Lu Zhiquan’s voice suddenly became hoarse, deeply staring at her, "I’ve learned that Yan Shu has encountered some trouble recently and probably won’t send anyone to capture you anymore, you can relax for now."
Nie Xiaoxing didn’t speak anymore.
It was rare for Gu Yan not to interrupt during the conversation between Gu Yan and Nie Xiaoxing, his deep gaze glancing at Lu Zhiquan.
Lu Zhiquan kept looking at Nie Xiaoxing without blinking, the redness in his eyes dissipated and then gathered, gathered and then dispersed.
After a while, he said hoarsely, "You’ve been back with me for a few days now, and I haven’t invited you to a proper meal. I’ll treat you to lunch today."
Gu Yan frowned.
"No need."
Without waiting for Gu Yan to speak against it, Nie Xiaoxing said, "Since it’s useless for me to stay in K City now, I want to go back to Z City as soon as possible, I’m worried about my parents."
Gu Yan raised his eyebrow in satisfaction.
He embraced Nie Xiaoxing and stood up from the sofa, looking at Lu Zhiquan, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Lu. Next time Mr. Lu comes to Z City, I will definitely entertain Mr. Lu well."
Lu Zhiquan glanced at Gu Yan, stood up from the sofa, and looked at Nie Xiaoxing, "Xiao Xing, thank you for trusting me and coming back with me."
Nie Xiaoxing’s attitude was indifferent, even a bit cold, "I didn’t do much."
"Xiao Xing..."
"Gu Yan, let’s go!"
Before Lu Zhiquan could speak, Nie Xiaoxing said.
Lu Zhiquan looked at Nie Xiaoxing’s cold side face, it was as if a sharp knife was cutting at his heart!
The colder Nie Xiaoxing’s attitude was towards Lu Zhiquan, the happier Gu Yan naturally was.
So he embraced Nie Xiaoxing’s shoulder and said to Lu Zhiquan, "Then we’ll take our leave."
Lu Zhiquan pressed his lips, only focusing on Nie Xiaoxing.
Gu Yan squinted his eyes, gave a low snort, and left with Nie Xiaoxing.
...
Leaving the apartment, they got into the car.
Gu Yan was in a very good mood, "We didn’t have breakfast this morning, let’s find a place to eat first, and then go back to Yuan Lei’s."
Nie Xiaoxing leaned back on the chair, looking out the car window, "Take me to the airport."
Gu Yan paused his hand that was about to ignite the engine, glanced sideward at Nie Xiaoxing, "Going back now?"
"Yes." Nie Xiaoxing said.
Gu Yan stared at her, "Eating something won’t take much time."
"I’ll just take a cab to the airport myself." Nie Xiaoxing said, reaching out to open the car door.
"Little Xing’er..."
Gu Yan caught Nie Xiaoxing in time, looking at her with deep eyes, "You’ve been mad at me since last night."
Nie Xiaoxing turned to look at him, her voice calm, "I’m not. I just want to go back quickly."
"If you’re not, then why are you unwilling to go back with me?" Gu Yan stared at her.
Nie Xiaoxing frowned, "Don’t you still want to go to your cousin’s place?"
"If you don’t want to go, you don’t have to!" Gu Yan said.
Nie Xiaoxing looked at Gu Yan for a while and said, "Didn’t you just say you wanted to go eat something? Let’s go."
Gu Yan pursed his lips, looking at Nie Xiaoxing without moving.
"I initially thought you were still going to your cousin’s. Since you said you’re not, then let’s go eat first, and then go to the airport." Nie Xiaoxing said lightly.
Gu Yan slightly frowned, released Nie Xiaoxing, and silently started the car moving forward.
Nie Xiaoxing stared at his stern profile for a while before slowly looking away, lowering her head to gaze at her toes.
...
During the meal, Gu Yan called Xiao Nanqing to talk about his plan to return to Z City in the afternoon.
Xiao Nanqing then took over the task of booking tickets.
Shortly afterward, he called Gu Yan back, saying that he booked a flight at one in the afternoon.
After finishing their meal, it was almost twelve o’clock for Gu Yan and Nie Xiaoxing.
So the two of them headed to the airport.
They parked the car directly in the airport’s rental car lot.
Gu Yan and Nie Xiaoxing walked into the airport and headed straight for the VIP lounge.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they entered, Nie Xiaoxing saw Yuan Lei sitting in the lounge with Xiao Nanqing.
Nie Xiaoxing frowned immediately, not hiding it at all.
Gu Yan seemed slightly stunned when he saw Yuan Lei, "Why are you here?"
Yuan Lei pouted, looking aggrieved at Gu Yan.
Xiao Nanqing raised his eyebrows lightly and said, "The place where Yuan Lei was staying is ultimately not very safe. So to be on the safe side, it’s better for her to return to Z City with us."
Hearing Xiao Nanqing say this.
Gu Yan glanced at Yuan Lei but didn’t say anything further.
"Sister-in-law."
Yuan Lei stood up from her seat, walked over to Nie Xiaoxing, and looked at her cautiously, though somewhat defiantly, "I apologize for what happened last night. I hope we can get along well in the future."
Nie Xiaoxing looked at Yuan Lei with clear, penetrating eyes, "Miss Yuan is so sincere in her words that I have no reason not to accept them. I accept your apology. As for whether we can get along well, who knows."
Gu Yan frowned.
Yuan Lei bit her lip in grievance, her eyes filled with tears as she looked at Nie Xiaoxing, "Sister-in-law, please be generous."
Throwing down this sentence, Yuan Lei glanced at Gu Yan, turned around with her head down, and silently walked over to sit next to Xiao Nanqing.
Gu Yan stared at Yuan Lei, watching as big tears rolled down steadily onto her legs, yet she didn’t make a single sound, furrowing his brows even more deeply.
...
After boarding the plane.
Knowing that Yuan Lei hadn’t eaten at noon, Gu Yan kept offering her fruit and talking to her, as if intentionally comforting her.
Nie Xiaoxing sat in her seat, asked the flight attendant for a blanket, and covered herself completely, going to sleep.
After coaxing Yuan Lei for a while.
Yuan Lei’s mood improved, and she began reminiscing with Gu Yan and Xiao Nanqing about pleasant past memories.
And so.
From time to time, Nie Xiaoxing could hear Yuan Lei’s "innocent and carefree" laughter.
Nie Xiaoxing found it extremely annoying.
For no other reason than that it disrupted her rest!
Thus.
When the plane landed in Z City, as they disembarked, Nie Xiaoxing’s face was not just a little dark, and it was almost scrunched up like a steamed bun.
Gu Yan tried several times to rush to Nie Xiaoxing’s side, but his arm was clung to by Yuan Lei. Every step he took towards Nie Xiaoxing, Yuan Lei would pull him back, endlessly chattering in his ear.
Gu Yan stared impatiently at Yuan Lei, gritting his teeth, "You’ve been talking all this way, aren’t you thirsty?"
"Not thirsty, hehe." Yuan Lei seemed completely oblivious to Gu Yan’s impatience, flashing him an innocent smile.
Gu Yan’s face successfully turned dark as well.
...
Walking out of the airport.
The car sent to pick up Gu Yan and the others had already arrived.
Xiao Nanqing got into the front passenger seat.
Yuan Lei also took Gu Yan’s arm and got into the rear seat.
Nie Xiaoxing stood outside the car, looking at Yuan Lei sitting in the middle rear seat, utterly unwilling to get in.
Nie Xiaoxing was probably the so-called straightforward woman and genuinely disliked women like Yuan Lei, who are even more annoying than a two-faced person. Sharing a space with them made her feel like the air around her was polluted, utterly uncomfortable.
"Sister-in-law, come on in." Yuan Lei looked up at her with a face full of innocence, as if she’d completely forgotten what had happened last night and two hours ago at the airport.
Nie Xiaoxing stared at her coldly, "You guys go ahead, I still have things to do."
After saying that, Nie Xiaoxing slammed the car door, walked over to a taxi that had just stopped, opened the car door, and got in.
Watching the taxi Nie Xiaoxing took drive away.
Yuan Lei raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Gu Yan beside her.
Pleased to see Gu Yan’s face a frightening shade of livid and his chest heaving dramatically, Yuan Lei’s lips curved up almost imperceptibly.
