"No." Xinluo didn't believe that Lu Qinghao had any good intentions.
In her opinion, Lu Qinghao's so-called ignorance and asking for clarification on her behalf were just procrastination.
She didn't trust Lu Qinghao at all.
Lu Qi obeyed and hung up the phone.
Two seconds later, the ringing sounded again.
Lu Qi glanced at the phone screen, turned around and said, "It's still Lu Qinghao."
"..." Xinluo frowned. She really didn't like the feeling of pressure from Lu Qinghao's relentless pursuit.
"Hang up, block me."
Lu Qinghao didn't have her phone number, so he could just let Lu Qi block him and have some peace and quiet.
Lu Qi followed the order, hung up Lu Qinghao's call, and added his phone number to the blacklist.
Sadie couldn't help but ask Xinluo: "Is it really okay to do this? What if he finds out something and comes to tip you off?"
"Do you think he would be so kind? He is not a kind person. He is Lu Qinghao."
It was Lu Qinghao who had pushed her into an irretrievable situation.
It was Lu Qinghao who teamed up with Old Madam Tang, Tang Ruolan and others to drive her out of the Tang family, leaving her an orphan and helpless.
No matter how much he regretted his decision, Xinluo would never trust him again.
Looking down at the time on his phone, Xinluo said to Lu Qi, "How is my great-uncle? Is he back? If he is, let's go visit him."
"I was supposed to be back today, but something happened and I was delayed. I definitely can't go today because he's not here."
Xinluo frowned and asked, "My cousin has been in Qinglong Temple for half a month. Does he go to Qinglong Temple at this time every year? Why does he stay there for such a long time?"
"No." Lu Qi thought for a moment and shook his head. "My cousin didn't often go to Qinglong Temple in the past. It's a bit suspicious to hear you say that."
Xinluo became suspicious and suspected that the news that his cousin went to Qinglong Temple was just false information spread by him.
"We can't just sit there and wait. Send someone to Qinglong Temple to check. If the uncle is there, stay there and don't let Lu Huanting's men get close. If the uncle is not there... send someone to report back immediately, and we'll make the next arrangements."
"Okay, Madam, don't worry, I will make sure it's arranged."
…
Xinluo was busy outside and it was already evening when she returned to the Lu family's old house.
As the car approached the Lu family's old house, a dark-colored Lincoln was seen parked outside the iron gate of the villa from afar.
Xinluo narrowed her eyes slightly and caught a glimpse of a slender figure wrapped in a black coat, leaning against the car and smoking.
"It's Lu Qinghao." Lu Qi turned around.
He paid attention to the changes in Xinluo's facial expressions. Once the young lady showed displeasure, he would get out of the car and chase her away.
"Miss, we have come all the way here, is he really in trouble?"
Sadie looked gossipy and examined Lu Qinghao who was not far away.
I always feel that this man is not as bad as the rumors say.
At least, when she grabbed his wrist tightly, it should have been painful, but this man was willing to risk breaking his hand in order to keep the young lady.
"What could be the matter..."
Xinluo retracted his gaze and ordered coldly: "Drive in directly, ignore him."
Lu Qi, Sadie: “…”
*
Lu Qinghao, wrapped in his coat, leaned against the side of the car, stubbed out his cigarette in annoyance.
The cold winter wind blew on his face, which was painful.
But compared to the chill in his heart, this little bit of cold wind was nothing.
After he failed to contact Lu Qi in the morning, he ran to Lu's house to find Xinluo.
The Lu family’s guard said Xinluo was not at home, so he waited at the door for a whole day.
I didn’t even dare to go out for a meal. I could only ask my assistant to bring some fast food over and I ate it hastily in the car.
Lu Qinghao frowned, wondering where to find Xinluo.
When I looked up, I saw Xinluo's car appear not far away.
