"Why are you looking for me?" Qiao Xuan avoided his question and looked to the side, looking at the coffee shop where there were still a lot of people. Other than them, he could not see anyone else.

Xilin Fu leisurely took a sip of the coffee, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Of course I do, I still hope that you can come to Lan Xi to work. I have always kept that office for you."

Qiao Xuan was silent for a moment, but she was not thinking about how to answer Xilin Fu, but what would happen if Sheng Liang could not get through to her number.

She was a little regretful that her phone had been turned off. Sheng Liang must have thought that she was still angry and would have been very worried.

Seeing that she did not say anything, Xilin Fu thought that she was shaken, and continued: "It's still early, how about we go over and take a look?"

Qiao Xuan raised his head and looked at Xilin Fu blankly: "What did you say?"

The smile on Xilin Fu's lips slowly disappeared, and the hint of danger in his eyes was almost unconcealable. "What kind of thing is this that you're so engrossed in?"

Although he asked, even if Qiao Xuan did not say it, Xilin Fu knew it was related to Sheng Liang.

He just did not think that Qiao Xuan would be so distracted in front of him, without concealing anything.

No one had ever dared to be so distracted in front of him.

In Xilin Fu's heart, the displeasure he felt in the beginning, had slowly turned into unwillingness. Even ten years ago, he didn't feel that he had lost to Sheng Liang, so Qiao Xuan's previous reaction had really provoked him.

No matter how slow Qiao Xuan was, she could feel the coldness in Xilin Fu's tone. She paused for a moment, and just as she was about to say something, she heard the wind chime at the entrance of the coffee shop chiming a few times. She raised her head and saw Sheng Liang walking towards her.

Xilin Fu also did not turn back, and only waited until Sheng Liang walked closer to them before saying, "Speaking of which, we have not seen each other for ten years, nor have we sat down to reminisce about the past."

At that time, Sheng Liang had already held onto Qiao Xuan's hand and planned to take her away immediately. Hearing Xilin Fu's words, he stopped in his steps, saw that Qiao Xuan was also looking at him suspiciously, turned his gaze towards Xilin Fu and said indifferently, "When Instructor Xilin wants to reminisce about the past, I'll accompany you anytime, but not today."

"You can't do it today, is it because you have something important to deal with?" Xilin Fu smiled as if he was pointing something.

Sheng Liang knew that he was talking about Qiao Nan. He knew that he wouldn't tell Qiao Xuan about this, so he was confident.

In front of Xilin Fu, he had to calm himself down so that his weakness wouldn't be caught.

"Of course it's something very important. Ignoring it, didn't I fail to live up to Instructor Xilin's good intentions?" Sheng Liang fearlessly met Xilin Fu's bottomless eyes.

The two of them looked at each other, and it seemed as if the air itself had congealed. Even Qiao Xuan, who was at the side, could sense the hidden waves that were surging between them.

Furthermore, Qiao Xuan was still afraid of Xilin Fu's hypnosis, she was afraid that Sheng Liang would be hit by it.

Right now was not the right time, Sheng Liang knew that Xilin Fu would not say it out loud, so he made the first move.

As expected, Xilin Fu did not speak further. Watching Sheng Liang and Qiao Xuan holding hands as they left, he chuckled softly.

Sheng Liang's footsteps did not stop until he had boarded the carriage. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief, but in his heart, he still did not dare to relax even a single bit.

Qiao Xuan watched his serious expression from the side, and asked softly: "You knew each other before?"

Just now, she had heard Sheng Liang addressing Xilin Fu as Instructor in Xilin.

Sheng Liang did not deny it. Even though not many people knew about this relationship now, it was clear that Xilin Fu did not intend to hide that history anymore by saying it in front of Qiao Xuan.

The two of them had a brutal and dark experience.

Sheng Liang nodded his head, "Ten years ago, when I was studying abroad, I was caught in a mysterious organization. It was a place that specialized in cultivating assassins, Xilin Fu was my instructor."

"Assassin?" Qiao Xuan did not dare believe it, and was also unable to link someone with status like Sheng Liang with the organization, "What happened after that, how did you escape?"

Sheng Liang paused for a moment, as if he was recalling the past: "I used Xilin Fu, and turned myself into a dead man."

The meaning of the dead man's words was that for that organization, he already did not exist, but Qiao Xuan immediately thought of another hidden danger and asked: If Xilin Fu wants to take revenge on you, what if he tells that organization of your existence?

Sheng Liang smiled meaningfully, "He won't."

Even if it was Xilin Fu, who wanted to leave the organization, he had to pay a heavy price, he would not lose his head and head back to that muddy water.

Seeing that he was so confident, Qiao Xuan knew that he must have considered it more than her and would not make such a mistake, so he did not say anything further.

She lowered her head, clenched her fingers tightly, and then released them. Sensing Sheng Liang's gaze on her, she glanced back at him as well, and the two of them spoke in unison, "Sorry."

Qiao Xuan was startled, but quickly lowered his head.

Sheng Liang laughed instead. To the likes of them in the past, the word "sorry" probably never came out of their mouth. It was because they cared about each other that they were more afraid of losing it.

He put his arm around her shoulders and said quietly, "I promise I won't keep you waiting."

Sheng Liang had always kept his promise, a fact that Qiao Xuan had never doubted before. However, she was certain now that Sheng Liang definitely had to do it for a reason, which was why she did not want to force him, "It doesn't matter as long as you want, it doesn't matter whether I have it or not. It's enough for you to stay by my side."

The unease she had when facing Xilin Fu had all disappeared the moment she saw Sheng Liang. He didn't need to say anything at all;

Qiao Xuan did not pursue the matter and it also made Sheng Liang heave a sigh of relief. He did not know what kind of reason he should find to make her believe him.

However, it was better to settle the matter of Qiao Nan as soon as possible.

After sending Qiao Xuan home, Sheng Liang received a call from Luo Jie, his expression becoming more and more solemn.

Xilin Fu actually wanted Qiao Nan to help him sell the Immortal's Drunken Wine!

However, Qiao Nan was still hypnotized, he did not even know who he was. Even if he wanted to help Qiao Nan, that brat would not cooperate with him.

"Young Master Liang, about Qiao Nan, do you need me to tell you that selling immortals is not a small crime? If you were to be discovered by the Miss Qiao, I'm afraid she would hate you." Luo Jie said worriedly.

Telling Qiao Xuan would only make the situation worse, and with Qiao Xuan's personality, if she knew that Xilin Fu had done that to Qiao Nan, she would definitely give it her all.

"Continue to follow Qiao Nan. You don't need to do anything, just keep an eye on him." Sheng Liang's eyes turned cold. He wanted to see just what other plans Xilin Fu had.
