After hearing what he had said, Qiao Xuan truly felt that her IQ was far too inferior to Sheng Liang's. Fortunately, this person was on her side, otherwise, how terrifying would such an opponent be?
The car in front was finally moving slowly, but it was the rush hour, and they would probably still have a long way to go before the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Qiao Xuan was not in a hurry, he was only taking a certificate, there was more than enough time.
Sheng Liang's cellphone rang. Qiao Xuan inadvertently took a glance and saw that it was Ling Hui calling. It was Sheng Liang, his police friend.
Sheng Liang looked and immediately picked it up, hearing Ling Hui's slightly flustered voice: "The Household Registration Center's computer has been hacked, I think someone has seen the things we prepared."
Sheng Liang unknowingly looked at Qiao Xuan, and said softly: "I understand."
Because he was wearing his headphones, Qiao Xuan did not hear what Ling Hui said. She asked casually: "What's wrong?"
After Sheng Liang finished speaking, he saw that Qiao Xuan was still looking at him as if he did not believe him. He added, "He said that he's going to gather together tonight.
"Yes." Qiao Xuan forced a smile.
Sheng Liang's circle only had a few people. And now that Sheng Yan was dead, Luo Keke did not contact them anymore. With two less people, it became much quieter.
Furthermore, after that day, Sheng Liang had never mentioned Sheng Yan in front of her, so Qiao Xuan did not know whether he, like Luo Keke, hated her or not.
Sheng Liang's unease continued until they arrived at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau and were about to get off the car, when he suddenly remembered that Ling Hui had already changed Qiao Xuan's household register. If they went in now and the staff members checked the information, they would realize that the information in Qiao Xuan's household book was different from the information on the internet.
Right now, he couldn't explain this to her.
Seeing that Qiao Xuan was about to get off the car, Sheng Liang immediately pulled her back: "Hua'er, I suddenly have something to do, let's come back another day."
Qiao Xuan was startled for a moment. Although she was not anxious, she was still a little disappointed when Sheng Liang said this.
She withdrew her hand that was about to push open the carriage door, and sat up straight. She felt a little awkward, and didn't look at Sheng Liang again.
Sheng Liang could see that she was depressed. He reached out his hand to rub Qiao Xuan's hair, "Don't be angry, we'll come back in a few days."
But Qiao Xuan subconsciously avoided his hand, and still did not look at him: "It's okay, I don't care."
She knew in her heart that this was Sheng Liang's excuse. If he really wanted to go, no matter how big an event this might be, he would first settle this matter.
Yet, he was looking for an excuse. Did he regret it?
However, Qiao Xuan did not expose her, and even did not ask her about the reason. He had already decided to do so, and even if she asked, it would not change anything.
Qiao Xuan didn't want to be too petty.
Sheng Liang was about to send Qiao Xuan back, but Qiao Xuan rejected him. "I want to walk around by myself, you go and busy yourself."
Sheng Liang wanted to pull her, but she had already opened the car door and got out, quickly disappearing into the crowd.
Qiao Xuan's heart was heavy, but she was not angry at all. She just walked away, not wanting to argue with Sheng Liang because of some baseless speculation.
After walking a short distance, she received a message from Sheng Liang, saying that he was still waiting for her at the same place. He would only be at ease if he brought her back personally.
Sure enough, saying that she couldn't get a pass was an excuse. She was willing to spend unnecessary time waiting for her, but she didn't have time to get a stamp.
Qiao Xuan sat in the seat of a coffee shop and looked outside. Even when the coffee was no longer hot, she did not take a sip.
Maybe subconsciously, she hoped for Sheng Liang to chase her. As long as he could explain, even if it was a lie, she would be willing to believe it.
But he never came.
Actually, it was very easy for Sheng Liang to find her, but she was angry, he felt that he should give her time to calm down.
While he was waiting in the car, he accidentally turned his head and saw a car whizzing by, and the person sitting at the back was actually Qiao Nan?
Wasn't Qiao Nan supposed to be in Yunnan, why was he here?
And what made him more concerned was that on that carriage, there was a special symbol, which was the symbol of Xilin Family.
Sheng Liang frowned his eyebrows, looked at the direction Qiao Xuan left in, lowered his head and thought for a bit. Then, without any further hesitation, he turned the steering wheel, and chased after the carriage.
Qiao Xuan still compromised. She still believed in Sheng Liang, especially after thinking about all the things he had done for her, she knew that Sheng Liang definitely had his own reasons.
But when she came out of the coffee shop and went back to where they had left each other, she didn't see his car. She took out her cell phone and called him, but he didn't answer for a long time.
Because at that time, Sheng Liang was following Qiao Nan into a bar, and the music inside was loud, so he did not hear his phone ring.
Sheng Liang saw Qiao Nan squeeze through the crowd and into a hidden passage. He immediately followed suit, but just as he turned a corner, he felt someone's fist striking towards him. instinctively dodged it, and immediately discovered that he was surrounded.
Sheng Liang's gaze swept past them and looked at Qiao Nan, who was behind them, and asked: "Xiao Nan, when did you come back? How did you end up being with these people?"
Qiao Nan looked at him and sneered, then pushed the people in front of him to walk over: "Xiao Nan? Tell him who I am. "
The boy with red fur immediately said, "This is our new brother, Xilin New."
Sheng Liang's expression became even more dejected. What new Xilin, he was certain that the person in front of him was Qiao Nan, but it was very obvious that his brain had been brainwashed by someone, and he no longer remembered who he was.
Since he couldn't get away from the Xilin Family, Sheng Liang was sure that Qiao Nan had been hypnotized by Xilin Fu, and it definitely wasn't something that had just happened in the past two days. Xilin Fu was probably afraid that he wouldn't agree to Qi Mingyu's threats, so he prepared this backup plan of Qiao Nan's.
Sheng Liang's forehead was faintly aching, he was extremely clear of Qiao Xuan's feelings towards his family. If he did not handle this matter well, Qiao Xuan would definitely lose his rationality and get used by Xilin Fu.
"Looks like I got the wrong person." He backed away and turned to walk out.
Qiao Nan was as stubborn as Qiao Xuan. Sheng Liang knew that even if he used forced methods to drag Qiao Nan away, it would be useless. It would only make Qiao Nan more hostile towards him.
After exiting the bar, Sheng Liang immediately took out his mobile phone to call Luo Jie. Only then did he see that Qiao Xuan's number was not on the screen, he called it back, but Qiao Xuan did not pick it up.
When the bell once again rang, Qiao Xuan saw that it was still Sheng Liang's name, so she simply turned off her phone.
Xilin Fu looked at her movements, lowered his head and stirred his coffee, then laughed: "Not taking it, maybe he has something important to talk about with you."
