Chapter 213 We Should Become Allies

 

Xie Xiu raised his narrowed eyes and looked at Xiao Qingqing. The glass of water in his hand went still.

However, his expression did not betray any emotions.

Even his smile was controlled, “Miss Xiao, this time you have not only insulted Mu Zhi, but you have also insulted me.”

Xie Xiu had always treated women like his hobby of collecting rare weapons. He liked to collect them but only to serve his needs. Having heard what Xie Xiu had said, Xiao Qingqing’s smile relaxed a little, “Mr. Xie, I do not have the intention to insult you. What I meant was that I want Lu Jinye while you want Mu Zhi. Since our goals are similar, we could be allies.”

Xie Xiu took a sip of water casually before turning to Xiao Qingqing, “Are you saying that I can’t even manage a woman? I don’t think I need an ally.”

“That is all for tonight. I am a little tired. Please go home, Miss Xiao.”

Xie Xiu stood up and stretched his body. He handed the tea bowl slowly to her beautiful hands before walking out of the room.

 

Xiao Qingqing did not move from her spot. For the first time, she felt that nothing was within her grasp.

She clenched her hands as she watched Xie Xiu moving away. After a moment of hesitation, she called to Xie Xiu, “Perhaps you can snatch a woman from another man’s grasp, but this time your opponent is Lu Jinye.”

Xie Xiu stopped in his steps but did not turn around. He replied in a firm tone, “Miss Xiao, thank you for your reminder. As an exchange, I will reveal to you a piece of information- Lu Jinye’s mother is called Shi Chu, Mu Zhi’s mother is called Mu Xue.”

 

After he spoke, he continued walking away and went upstairs.

Xiao Qingqing did not move for a long time. In the end, she walked out of Xie Xiu’s house and went back home. She knew that the first thing she had to do was investigate the animosity between Shi Chu and Mu Xue!
