The moment Qu Ruo came out of the door, Xiaoxiao's cell phone rang.

She quickly took out her cell phone from her bag. The number displayed on it was a strange yet familiar number. She thought about it for a few seconds, but still couldn't remember who it was, so she picked it up anyway.

A familiar voice came over the phone, "Hello, is this Xiaoxiao?"

"You are?" "Jian Luomo?" Xiaoxiao took the phone away from her ear in disbelief. Then, she looked at the phone number carefully. Indeed, it was Jian Luomo.

Qu Ruo had just come out of his office. Hearing the voice of Xiaoxiao who was squatting in the corner, he was startled. He stopped and turned around to look at Xiaoxiao.

Xiaoxiao also stood up and walked closer to Qu Ruo and Na Nuo. She then asked, "What's the matter? It's so late."

Jian Luomo was standing in the hallway of the hospital. His face was illuminated by a gentle light as he said softly, "It's like this, Xiaoxiao. Yaoyao, she …"

Jian Luomo thought about how he hadn't dared to tell her about Bai Yaoyao's near accident, how he was afraid she might be worried, and how, having gotten along with her before, she would have to come to the hospital at this late hour to take care of Yaoyao.

This way, he wouldn't have the chance to be alone with Yaoyao anymore. How could he lose this chance, but he had to report his safety first.

He paused before continuing, "Yaoyao wants to be with me today, so I'll call you to let you know that you don't have to worry about her tonight, and you don't have to wait for her either."

"What did you say?" Yaoyao with you? How is this possible? How could she be with you? You let her answer the phone! " Xiaoxiao couldn't believe it, her tone a little heavier. She couldn't believe Bai Yaoyao had gone back to Jian Luomo and was involved with Bai Qianqian and Jian Luomo. It was no different from being a third party.

When she looked at Qu Ruo, his face was tense and his mouth was pursed tightly. Although she couldn't see his expression clearly, she could still feel the cold aura coming from his body.

Qu Ruo didn't wait for Xiaoxiao to continue talking. He reached out for the phone beside her ear and pressed on the handphone, signaling Xiaoxiao to continue talking.

"Xiaoxiao, Yaoyao has just fallen asleep. She's very tired, so she went to bed early. Her phone is out of battery. When she's recharged, call her tomorrow morning." You don't have to worry about her. She'll be back tomorrow. "

That was why …

"Do you mean that Yaoyao will be with you all night?" Xiaoxiao said as she stole a glance at Qu Ruo's face. In reality, for a big figure like him, from the looks of it, how pitiful could he be?

Before she could finish her sentence, someone's face was already covered in a layer of ice.

"Yes, we've been together all day and we need to be together tonight, so you really don't need to worry."

"But … hey!" "You'd better let Yaoyao pick up the phone …" Before Xiaoxiao could finish, a big hand reached out and hung up.

Xiaoxiao looked at Qu Ruo's extremely stiff and indifferent face and stuck out her tongue bitterly at Mann. She didn't dare to say anything else …

"Young Master Qu, then we are …" Nuo knew her words were inappropriate, but her phone was about to explode due to the old lady's urging.

"Return to the manor!" It was just two short words, but the displeasure in his tone was already very obvious.

Xiaoxiao blinked before carefully chasing after him. "Yaoyao isn't that kind of person. You must believe her. She will definitely give you an explanation tomorrow."

"Hehe … Let's go with her …" Qu Ruo laughed coldly and left without looking back. Mann and Luo Hao followed behind him. Every step he took was heavy and stiff. The two hands hanging by his side were tightly clenched. Even the veins in his temples were faintly discernible.

In the car, Lang called, "Young Master Qu, everything is ready."

He leaned his somewhat exhausted body against the seat and pressed the center of his brows. "There's no need. I'll tell everyone to go back first!"

Lang, who was on the other side, also let out a long sigh of relief. To be able to cancel this plan was the best news.

In the manor, when Qu Ruo came back after changing his expression, the old lady was already sitting in front of the table with a dark face. Everything was ready, even the candles on the exquisite candlesticks were dyed.

On the long table, there were several colors of roses mixed together. The tableware was arranged neatly. Under the lights of the manor, it was suffused with an elegant and exquisite light.

The tablecloth was very unique and matched well with the tableware and food for the evening. The old lady had asked him to change into it at the last minute.

Qu Ruo had already noticed that the old lady's expression wasn't very good. He stopped being angry and tried his best to not let the old lady know that he was angry.

"Grandmother, everything you've arranged is much better than those high-end restaurants." As he walked past, he took off his coat and handed it to a nearby servant.

One of the servants was holding a bottle of very good red wine. He had been waiting for the others to open it.

It seemed that the old lady had made sufficient preparations to see Bai Yaoyao. Qu Ruo had also seen her intentions and unconsciously felt a sense of helplessness towards Bai Yaoyao.

"Don't pick up the good ones. Let me ask you, what about Miss Bai? Do you want me, an old lady, to wait for her? Shouldn't she be waiting for him to arrive on time? " The old lady's amiable face didn't look too good, but luckily, her temper wasn't that bad. Although she wasn't happy, she had a good temperament. After all, she was born into a noble family and had some basic education.

"Grandma, she has something important tonight, so you can't blame her. I went to take a look, which teacher was it and insisted on letting her go, saying that it's the school's anniversary celebration. She might be coming back very late today, and perhaps she can only go to the dorm now."

"You! I think you should cover for that girl! "If you don't dare to meet me, just say that you don't dare to meet me. What kind of excuse are you trying to come up with!" The old lady glanced at Qu Ruo in dissatisfaction and continued, "There are so many girls, besides seeing Linglong, they are shallow. She should feel lucky to be able to see her now, right? It's fine if you're not punctual, but why did you do this to me! "

"Grandma, this is my fault. I didn't tell her in advance, so she didn't know. She really did delay it today. Next time, I'll definitely …" Qu Ruo explained.

"Next time? Forget it! My old lady can't stand that! "
