43: Chapter 43: He Was Isolated by Her on the Opposite Side_1 43: Chapter 43: He Was Isolated by Her on the Opposite Side_1 The night was as dark as ink, West Street closed early, and at this time, many shops were already shut.

There were few pedestrians about, giving the scene a slightly desolate feel.

The man in the car gazed out the window with an apathetic look, his thin lips tightly pressed together, emanating a sense of chilling arrogance.

“She seems to have a good impression of you!” came a cold voice, shattering the silence inside the car.

It was Lu Yinchu.

Mo Yan cleared his throat awkwardly, “Mr.

Lu, that’s one joke I can’t afford to make!”

The man’s eyes twinkled with amusement as he responded nonchalantly, “She is always grateful to those who help her.

Apparently, I am now isolated as an adversary in her eyes…”

Mo Yan pursed his lips, seeing the man partially close his eyes, though the smile on his lips never faded!

Nanxi walked up to her uncle’s house and checked the time before knocking on the door.

At this hour, her uncle should still be awake!

After pressing the doorbell, Nanxi took a sniff of herself, noticing the smell of smoke.

She thought back to Lu Yinchu smoking in the car and frowned at the recollection: she didn’t find the smell so off-putting at the time, but now, she found it quite disagreeable…

However, if her uncle were to ask about it, she would just tell the truth.

There was nothing to hide!

Finally, the door was opened.

Just as Nanxi was about to call out to her uncle, she was momentarily stunned by the appearance of the person who opened the door.

It was not Liang Youquan, but…

Xu Mei?!

Nanxi froze at the doorway, as did the woman standing there…

“Hello, Aunt Xu!” Eventually, it was Nanxi who finally broke the silence.

Xu Mei muttered something under her breath, quickly motioning for Nanxi to come inside.

Nanxi walked in feeling uncomfortable, but couldn’t shake an unsettling feeling:Xu Mei is moving in already?

That means, Xu Mei and my uncle…
