Xu Yina closed her eyes and began to daydream.

　　 Less than half a minute later, her phone, which was in the living room, suddenly rang.

　　 Fearing it might be a call from Qiao Liang, Xu Yina, soaking wet, hurriedly left the bathroom.

　　 Because she was barefoot, her footprints were still visible on the living room floor.

　　 According to Xu Yina’s idea, the person calling would be Qiao Liang, and Qiao Liang would say that he would come back to spend the night with her.

　　 To Xu Yina’s dismay, the person who called her was actually her ex-husband, Sun Minghao!

　　 Because she was already extremely disappointed in her ex-husband, Xu Yina did not want to answer the phone.

　　 But she didn’t want her ex-husband to know that she had refused to answer, so she simply ignored the constantly ringing phone and went to take a shower.

　　 Ten minutes later, Xu Yina, wrapped in a bath towel, walked out of the bathroom.

　　 As a result, her phone was still ringing.

　　 Xu Yina picked up her phone and sat on the sofa, looking depressed, but still answered the call.

　　 “Are you sick?” Xu Yina said angrily. “We’re divorced, so can you please stop bothering me?”

　　 “Baby, I miss you.”

　　 “I hope you can say this to other women,” Xu Yina said. “Instead of wasting time on women who are impossible for you, you should pursue women who might be with you. Actually, if you hadn’t sold me out in the first place, I wouldn’t have divorced you. So all of this is just your own fault.”

　　 I’d like to meet with you.

　　 “But I don’t want to see you.”

　　 “Can’t you give me a chance? I promise I’ll change for the better!”

　　 “I’m sorry,” Xu Yina said with a cold expression, “I already have a boyfriend.”

　　 “Han An?”

　　 “It’s not him. We’re just ordinary friends.”

　　 “He definitely slept with you that night.”

　　 “You’re judging a gentleman by the standards of a petty person.”

　　 “I don’t believe it!”

　　 “Believe it or not, he’s not my boyfriend,” Xu Yina said after a pause. “He’s already married, so he definitely can’t be my boyfriend. Sun Minghao, you should hurry up and find a girlfriend, because I think you’re too stubborn. Let me tell you, I’ve already found the love of my life, so I hope you can find one soon too.”

　　 Beep…beep…

　　 Xu Yina was quite puzzled when Sun Minghao suddenly hung up.

　　 At the same time, at Sun Minghao’s residence.

　　 After finishing his phone call with his ex-wife, Sun Minghao, his face ashen, immediately went to the refrigerator.

　　 Sun Minghao opened the refrigerator and his eyes fell on the pieces of meat on the plate.

　　 “Brother Kun, this is called not wasting anything.”

　　 After revealing an extremely sinister smile, Sun Minghao immediately picked up the tray and walked towards the kitchen.

　　 After searing the meat like steak, Sun Minghao, sitting at the table, immediately started eating it with a bottle of Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor).

　　 The meat didn’t taste good, but because the experience was so unusual, Sun Minghao became extremely excited.

　　 The thought of his ex-wife having a new lover made Sun Minghao’s face turn very gloomy again.

　　 Because he still wanted to get back together with his ex-wife, Sun Minghao felt betrayed by her.

　　 “You bitch!”

　　 Using his fork, Sun Minghao picked up a piece of meat and took a big, vicious bite.

　　 After chewing for a bit, Sun Minghao swallowed the piece of meat and gulped down two large mouthfuls of Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor).

　　 The next morning, Xu Yina and Bai Qin went to work together as usual.

　　 As they walked out of the residential compound, Bai Qin asked, “Is your boyfriend still sleeping?”

　　 “He didn’t stay at my place last night,” Xu Yina said, squinting. “Shortly after he got back last night, he received a call from a friend saying that his friend had been in a car accident, so he rushed to the hospital.”

　　 “He hasn’t called you since then?”

　　 No!

　　 Upon hearing Xu Yina’s words, Bai Qin felt that something was amiss.

　　 However, since Xu Yina was deeply in love, Bai Qin was too embarrassed to discourage her.

　　 In Bai Qin’s view, Qiao Liang’s visit to the hospital didn’t seem like he was going to see his friend who had been in a car accident, but rather like he was going to see another woman.

　　 Just after nine o’clock, Xu Yina’s phone rang while she was busy at Han Ji’s.

　　 Seeing that it was Qiao Liang calling, Xu Yina quickly answered the call.

　　 “Nana, are you busy?”

　　 “What happened in the store?”

　　 “Let’s have dinner together tonight.”

　　 “Late-night snack?”

　　 “dinner.”

　　 “But I have to go to work.”

　　 “Then you should ask your boss for leave,” Qiao Liang said on the other end of the phone. “I’m thinking of making you a very lavish dinner tonight.”

　　 Hearing Qiao Liang’s words, Xu Yina felt very sweet.

　　 After pursing her lips, Xu Yina asked, “Why did you suddenly decide to cook for me?”

　　 “Because I love you.”

　　 Four simple words were enough to make Xu Yina’s heart flutter.

　　 “Okay,” Xu Yina said, “What time should we meet?”

　　 “Six o’clock, at your place.”

　　 “OK!”

　　 “Remember to be on time, or the food will get cold.”

　　 “Um!”

　　 After hanging up, Xu Yina immediately sent a WeChat message to Han An.

　　 “Boss, I’m having dinner with Ah Liang tonight, so I need to ask for leave. I might be back at the shop around eight o’clock, or I might not.”

　　 “Take it easy and come to work tomorrow.”

　　 “Thank you, boss!”

　　 After their conversation, Xu Yina told Bai Qin about it and asked Bai Qin to keep an eye on things during her night shift.

　　 The closer Xu Yina and Qiao Liang got, the happier Bai Qin was, so she immediately agreed.

　　 As for Han An, who was queuing to go through security, he was frowning.

　　 Although he wasn’t face-to-face with Xu Yina, he could sense her excitement from her words.

　　 This means that Xu Yina and Qiao Liang’s relationship is rapidly heating up.

　　 Although it feels like their relationship is progressing too fast, if they truly love each other, then falling deeply in love is understandable.

　　 Perhaps because he felt indebted to Xu Yina, Han An hoped that Xu Yina would not encounter any more setbacks in her love life.

　　 Han An put away his phone and couldn’t help but sigh.

　　 At 1:30 p.m., Han An and Gao Yining returned to Shenzhen.

　　 Han An planned to take the subway, while Gao Yining planned to take a taxi.

　　 So naturally, they had to part ways at the airport.

　　 “Get Zhou Tao’s body hair as soon as possible, and I’ll help you with the testing.”

　　 “Yes,” Han An said. “Send me a message when you get home.”

　　 “Sure,” Gao Yining said with a smile. “Although I only stayed in the old town of Lijiang this time, I had a great time. Actually, I’ve always felt that everything should be done in moderation, so that I’ll look forward to the next time. So I plan to take some time to go to Lijiang again and visit the places you mentioned before. Especially that Lugu Lake you mentioned, I’m really looking forward to it.”

　　 “Actually, the tourist attractions in Lijiang are not suitable for solo travelers.”

　　 “Why?”

　　 “Because most of the people there are couples, you’ll feel really lonely if you’re alone,” Han An said. “And being surrounded by couples will make you look even more pitiful. So, you have to listen to me, absolutely do not go to Lijiang alone.”

　　 When will you be free next time?

　　 “If we need to conduct further investigations in Lijiang, I will let you know.”

　　 “Alright,” Gao Yining said, extending her hand to Han An, “then let’s say goodbye for now.”

　　 After shaking hands with Gao Yining and seeing her into a taxi, Han An went to take the subway.

　　 Han An bought some groceries at a supermarket near his residential area before heading home.

　　 Because he had been chatting with Gao Yining the whole time he was on the plane, Han An went to sleep as soon as he got home.

　　 Han An didn’t wake up until four o’clock.

　　 Picking up his phone, which was lying to the side, Han An called Zhou Tao.

　　 After the call connected, Han An asked, “Are you free tonight?”
