C30 Waiting

He had clearly said that he could give Sheng Hua information about Mo Lin, and now that he thought he had never seen this person, it was fortunate that Qiao Xuan had too many things that happened in the past two days and did not have the time to contact Sheng Hua, otherwise, it would be troublesome.

Did he think that the reason for Luo Keke's accident was because of Mo Lin?

According to the information that Sheng Liang had provided to Qiao Xuan, Mo Lin was just a manager in a securities company. Who would he offend to the point that Luo Keke was framed in Italy?

Qiao Xuan's questions did not stop there. She was still searching through the memories of her past life, trying to figure out where she had seen this person before.

Sheng Liang no longer involved Qiao Xun in the matter of Luo Keke, and when he discussed it with Roger, he avoided Qiao Xun.

Qiao Xuan was originally a little conflicted, but after thinking about it for a bit, he felt relieved. Luo Keke was originally one sided friend of Sheng Liang, it had nothing to do with her.

In the end, she was not his person.

The hotel they were staying at was near the downtown area of Vanilla Square. Qiao Xuan walked along the street alone and didn't ask anyone about it, but fortunately, she found it. It was an ancient building built in the 13th century.

Entering through the circular archway, the courtyard was filled with people who were all lining up to touch the right breast of Juliet's bronze statue. It was said that this way they could obtain good love.

Qiao Xuan looked at the balcony above. That was the place where Juliet had waited bitterly for Romeo all those years ago.

She just watched until her phone rang. It was Sheng Liang.

"Where did you go?" Sheng Liang's voice was still indifferent, no anxiety or dissatisfaction could be heard.

Qiao Xuan told her her location, and then asked: "What's the matter?"

"It's nothing. There's some trouble over at Maureen's side. I need to go over there. You don't need to go anywhere else, just wait for me there. I'll pick you up after I finish my business."

Sheng Liang would always be at ease, but Qiao Xuan would rather believe that he was afraid that she would lose him.

He found a place in the yard to sit down. One of her arms was still in a cast, still hanging from the bandages, and she wore a denim jacket over her long skirt, just enough to cover her hand.

Qiao Xuan never had any concept of time, and the disturbance outside did not have much of an impact on her, so she did not know how long she waited. Seeing that the sky was getting darker, and there were only a few people left in the courtyard, she finally realised that Sheng Liang would not be coming.

She stood up and was about to head back when a foreign man bumped into her. Subconsciously, she protected her injured hand and dodged to the side.

He originally thought that that person would walk past her, but he unexpectedly stood in front of her, as if he was drunk. He used some unknown language to laugh at her, but he didn't let her go.

In a foreign land, with no language to speak, there was not even a person begging for help. Even if Qiao Xuan was calm, he would still be a little afraid at this time.

"If you don't leave, I'll call the police!" Qiao Xuan took out his phone and shouted in English as he retreated.

However, that person didn't seem to understand or was not afraid at all. He continued to move closer to Qiao Xuan until he forced her into a corner.

Qiao Xuan's cell phone was knocked to the ground, and the denim jacket that was draped over it was also taken off. Seeing Qiao Xuan's arm in a cast, the foreigner even revealed an excited expression, talking about something indiscernibly.

Qiao Xuan could only shout out loud in English for help to the side, but when she turned around, she realised that they were currently in an alley beside Juliet's previous residence, and could not even see a shadow of a person.
