Chapter 22 - He Already Has Her Cellphone Number, Why Did He Still Need To Add Her On WeChat?(1)

Chi Ying took a glance over at Shu Bai, then over at Lu JingYan.

After these past couple of days, she finally has a full appreciation of the saying enemies will always cross paths with each other and on narrow roads.

Lu JingYan’s look was deep, like turbulent sea water in the middle of the night, abyssal and full of pressure.

Suddenly, he looked over to her.

Unlike his normal coldness, his look was now mixed with a slight burn.

Chi Ying didn’t hesitate. She turned and started walking away.

She would be an idiot to stand there to watch the male and female leads fall in love at first sight.

Shu Bai, also standing there dumbfounded just like anyone else, suddenly noticed that Chi Ying was walking toward an opposite direction and couldn't help but call out, “Chi Ying, where are you going?”

The air was frozen solid and the atmosphere frigid. The scene was quiet like a silent movie.

Shu Bai realized that her action was rash and shut herself up immediately.

Luckily, there weren’t a lot of people in the first-floor lobby, plus her voice was soft and not too audible. She didn’t catch and turn everyone’s attention from Lu JingYan.

Chi Ying’s distant voice fell upon her ears. “I forgot something upstairs.”

Shu Bai turned around and saw a small and petite back.

Black hair down to her shoulder, her legs straight, and the small area of her white ankles was exposed under her pants.

Like a gentle wind, she quickly disappeared around the corner.

Lu JingYan caught sight of Chi Ying the moment he got out of the car.

Her skin was white like milk and particularly eye-catching among the crowd.

Even as someone who was always able to remain his calm, he couldn’t control the crazy beating of his heart.

There seemed to be some sort of emotions wanting to explode outward from his chest. It was both familiar and strange.

His look was cold, but his gaze was burning hot. He walked over briskly with his long legs.

Chi Ying left behind just her cold and distant back. Within a few steps on the stairs, even her back was out of sight.

Lu JingYan’s back froze a little.

Shu Bai’s face went from red to white and white to red, an inexplicable sense of anxiousness took over her.

Lu JingYan walked into the lobby and walked straight toward Shu Bai.

His voice was stern and cold as he asked, “Where did she go?”

Did he mean Chi Ying?

Shu Bai wanted to confirm with him but looking at him timidly, she was immediately intimidated by his cold aura.

It was quite obvious. Shu Bai turned and looked over in fear. Chi Ying was nowhere to be seen. Naturally, that wasn’t enough time to have retrieved something and back.

Plus, it was quite obvious that Chi Ying was avoiding him.

Scenes after scenes flashed passed in her head. Biting down on her pale lips, she said, “I, I don’t know…”

Lu JingYan looked even colder, almost ice-like.

Almost nobody could handle his look like that. A natural dignified and powerful composure, it was as though he was born to be a power player in the business world.

Shu Bai felt a chill down her entire body. Her voice was even more intimidated. “If Boss Lu was looking for her for anything, I can pass on the message…”

How was she going to pass it on? She didn’t even have her contact information.

Lu JingYan’s look was heavy and he looked displeased.
