Chapter 624: I Would Rather You Take the Initiative to Tell Me
While the people inside were quarreling bitterly about divorce, Xia Ning saw Qiao Yu waiting outside as soon as she walked out of the hall. Qiao Yu noticed Xia Ning when she came out. He immediately approached her to wrap a scarf around her neck. He said softly, “It is chilly outside. Be careful not to catch a cold.”
Looking up at the gentle, considerate man before her, Xia Ning said quietly, “Why are you here today?” She thought he had gone to work.
Qiao Yu raised his hand to put her hair on the forehead to one side, looked at her clear eyes and said softly, “You are fighting on the front line. How can I pretend to know nothing?” Actually, he wanted to say how could he pretend to know nothing as her husband.
Xia Ning was slightly touched. Instantly, she thought of his attitude towards the Shen family just now. She was quite sure that he ended the relationship with the Shen family because of her.
“When did you come?” She looked at him, not sure what he had heard.
“I have come for a while.” Qiao Yu answered. He seemed to know what she wanted to ask, for he continued, “I heard a part of the conversation.”
Xia Ning’s pupils shrank. She turned to look straight ahead, “Let’s leave here first.” Saying so, she immediately walked forward.
Qiao Yu turned to watch Xia Ning’s back with his eyes turning slightly darker. While he was about to go, he was suddenly aware of someone behind him. He turned and saw Song Chenfeng standing at the doorway.
As soon as Song Chenfeng came out, he saw Qiao Yu talking to Xia Ning and the two acting intimately. While he was still in shock, he did not expect Qiao Yu to suddenly turn around.
“Brother Qiao…” Song Chenfeng greeted Qiao Yu, feeling a bit afraid that he had just heard a private conversation.
Qiao Yu glanced at him, nodded, and then turned to follow Xia Ning.
Seeing Xia Ning get into Qiao Yu’s car, Song Chenfeng frowned. As Brother Qiao was gentle and attentive to Xia Ning, Song Chenfeng could not believe this was the cool, arrogant man he knew. So, Brother Qiao was serious about Xia Ning?!
According to the timeline, had the two people’s relationship developed from schoolmates to romance?
Xia Ning the foul woman was so able that she could tame such an iceberg.
However, watching the two people go away, Song Chenfeng was in low spirits. He felt that the distance between him and them was not short. It was so far that he might never catch them.
Xia Ning let the two lawyers go back themselves, while she sat in Qiao Yu’s car.
The car left the Shen family’s mansion. On the way, Xia Ning was reading Weibo with her cell phone without a word.
Qiao Yu was looking straight ahead while giving a glance at the person next to him now and then.
The silence made the atmosphere in the car stifling.
Xia Ning suddenly turned off her cell phone and looked at the man beside her, “Isn’t there anything you want to ask me?”
The traffic light happened to turn red ahead and the car stopped. Qiao Yu looked at Xia Ning as he asked, “What should I ask you?”
Xia Ning frowned slightly. What to ask? He could ask the reason why she became completely different. He could ask where on earth she went after her mother died. He could ask her what on earth she was hiding from him. Or, why was she so atrocious and cruel?
In fact, she did not want him to ask these things. But as he heard the conversation, he made her feel weird when he asked nothing.
“I would rather you take the initiative to tell me than me asking you.” Qiao Yu’s voice sounded again.
Xia Ning pursed her lips. Leaning on the seat, she avoided his gaze. She suddenly chuckled, “Do you know? You had been as bright as sunshine. Compared to you, I was filled with darkness like I was living in hell. Your brilliance attracted me to you. This was probably the reason why I fell in love with you at that time.”
