Xie Xuan nodded slightly. “For the time being, I used to live in the Xie family’s old residence.”
Hearing this, Lu Haiqiao asked, “Then why did you move out?”
Xie Xuan was stunned for a moment before he smiled. “It’s easier for me to see you here. My grandfather is at the old residence. We won’t be able to enjoy our time alone.”
Although he said that, his stomach lurched a little.
He couldn’t possibly tell his girlfriend that he had used his grandfather’s “Spring River” to make a paper airplane. When the old man discovered it, he kicked Xie Xuan out.
Apart from that, his grandfather did have other plans.
Lu Haiqiao leaned against the car window. Even though the rain had blurred the glass, he could still see the rough outline of the entire villa.
“It’s quite nice here…” she muttered softly.
Not long after, the car drove into the villa halfway up the mountain.
Lu Haiqiao followed Xie Xuan up the elevator in the underground parking lot.
As soon as the elevator door opened, a middle-aged woman in her fifties held a large white towel in her hands.
Xie Xuan opened the towel and draped it over Lu Haiqiao. “Thank you, Auntie
Zhu.”
The middle-aged woman smiled at the two of them and gestured with her hands. Then, she heard Xie Xuan say, “Okay, go ahead.” Then, she turned around and left.
Lu Haiqiao sat on the sofa with a towel wrapped around her. “She said that since it’s raining so heavily, I’ll make some ginger water to ward off the cold.” Xie Xuan looked at her in surprise. “You can read sign language?”
“A little.” Lu Haiqiao smiled at him. “I interviewed a deaf person once. I bought a month’s worth of courses online so that we could communicate better.’ Xie Xuan walked slowly to the wide floor-to-ceiling window.
With the rumbling thunder, bean-sized raindrops pattered on the transparent glass.
After a long time, Xie Xuan said, “Auntie Zhu is the mother of one of my buddies. Because of an accident, he passed away, so I brought Auntie Zhu here. She usually helps with simple family matters so that she’ll have something to live for.’
“What about the accident? What happened in the end?” Lu Haiqiao had stopped smiling and stared at him with a serious expression.
At this moment, she felt that he was indescribably lonely.
Even though he had been smiling at her since just now.
It was a very gentle and affectionate smile.
She knew he meant it, but…
“Do you want to know?” Xie Xuan turned around, his brooding gaze landing on her face.
Lu Haiqiao lowered her eyes and said calmly, “I don’t think you’ll let that accident go, right?”
After a few seconds of silence, Xie Xuan saw Auntie Zhu coming down from the second floor. He smiled and said, “Go take a shower first. Don’t catch a cold.
After you shower, let’s have dinner together.”
In the end, he was still afraid of scaring her.
That could wait.
Or he could tell her when he had the chance.
Anyway, she would find out sooner or later.
Lu Haiqiao stood up from the sofa. Seeing Aunt Zhu’s gesture, she smiled and nodded.
Before she went upstairs, she stopped.
“Xuan.”
“Yes?”
“When we were at the yacht pier, you said that there were some things that couldn’t be explained with words. I’ll gradually understand what kind of person you are in the future.”
“Yes, that’s right.” Lu Haiqiao had a good memory.
“Now I want to say the same thing to you. One day, you’ll know what kind of person I really am. I think you’ll like me even more than you do now.”
When she said this, her tone was very certain. There was a confident smile on her lips..
