Hearing this, Xie Xuan stared at Lu Haiqiao with his profound eyes.
After a while, he reached out his left hand to her and nodded slightly.
Lu Haiqiao was stunned. After a few seconds, she understood what he meant.
She wrapped the string of Dragon Eye Bodhi around Xie Xuan’s left wrist. When she wore it, she felt that it was a little loose, but it was just right for Xie Xuan.
The moment she put down her hands, she heard Xie Xuan’s voice in her ear. “In that case, I should be sincere for once.’
She let out a confused cry and looked up to meet his eyes which were as bright as the stars.
“Your hand,” he said.
Lu Haiqiao thought to herself, “Is he going to check if I’m injured again?’ There was no need for that.
While she was hesitating, Xie Xuan raised his right hand and untied the red bracelet hanging on his left wrist.
At this moment, Lu Haiqiao saw clearly that the clasp of the bracelet was made of gold. It was extremely unique.
“Your hand,” he repeated what he’d just said.
So it was…
Lu Haiqiao did as she was told.
Not long after, the bracelet was tied around her wrist.
Lu Haiqiao lowered her head, a smile in her sparkling eyes.
Was this an exchange of tokens?
At the same time, in the director’s office, Qin Liyan and Xie Er sat opposite each other.
“Director Qin, about what happened at South Sand Bay Resort last night.. ‘
Qin Liyan maintained his upright posture as he sat behind his desk. He stared at Xie Er and wasn’t as calm as before. Before Xie Er could finish, QIn Liyan interrupted him, “Mr. Xie, I want to ask about the young man who left with
Qiaoqiao just now, he…”
With that question, a dangerous aura suddenly rose in the office.
Qin Liyan could sense it, so he quickly added, Here’s the thing. That girl is Lu Haiqiao. She’s the daughter of an… old friend of mine, so…”
Xie Er looked at him. Even if there was a smile on his lips, he still seemed cold.
He sat up straight and tapped his fingers on the table. “Director Qin, in your position, you just have to do your best to complete the work on hand. As for other things, it’s not something you should ask about.”
It seemed like an understatement, but it was actually a warning.
Qin Liyan picked up his teacup and took a sip to hide his panic.
Initially, he thought that he was giving an old classmate a favor. Unexpectedly, he almost caused trouble.
He should have looked more closely at the case, but who would have thought that the suspect would be…
Bah!
What suspect?!
The little girl was as obedient as a kitten. How could she hurt someone with a knife?
He wondered if she would dare to pick up the knife.
After calming himself down, Qin Liyan said, “I understand what Mr. Xie means.”
“Director Qin, you’re a smart person. You’ll understand immediately.” Since he had brought the message, there was no need to waste time. Hence, Xie Er stood up and said before he left, “Director Qin, please take care of those two cases.”
Qin Liyan was stunned for a brief moment.
Two?
Wasn’t there only one case?
The South Sand Bay case had already proven that there was a misunderstanding, right?
Couldn’t it just end like this? Why did he have to follow up?
After sending Xie Er off, Qin Liyan immediately returned to his office to flip through the information on the South Sand Bay case.
The more he read, the angrier he became.
How could that person have the cheek to report a case?
Did he take the police for a joke?
