No reply came even after ten minutes.
Lu Xia became extremely frustrated since this had never happened before, so she sent him another text after some thought: [Brother Yanxi, see you at our usual spot.]
Huo Yanxi was in a daze staring at his phone after receiving Lu Xia's text messages.
He instinctively wanted to reply Lu Xia after receiving the first message, but his fingertips froze when he recalled what Huo Tingrui said last night. For a long time, he did not manage to type a word.
Huo Yanxi had indulged Lu Xia since childhood and was keenly aware of her personality. Even after she returned to the Lu family, he never treated her as an outsider and trusted her wholly.
Huo Yanxi rubbed his forehead. He opened the second message Lu Xia sent and went into a deep thought. Then he took his car keys from the drawer and left the office.
