After leaving the banquet hall, Xia Chenxing said goodbye to Du Yangyang and the two of them went home.
Xia Chenxing was particularly pleased with everything that had happened tonight. The effect hadn't been in vain. She had dressed up and watched a good show, and she was in a particularly good mood. She drove happily down the road in her little Mercedes. She had even deliberately opened the car's open top to catch the wind, and her mood was as good as her flying hair. She drove all the way to the underground parking lot, and before she turned off the engine, she realized that a black Maybach had also driven in and stopped not far from her. She was alarmed. She had seen the Maybach on the road, and it had disappeared several times in between. She thought it had taken some other route. Why was it following her? Something was definitely wrong. She quickly got out of the car and walked quickly into the elevator. She pressed the button to close the door several times. The doors were about to close, and just as she was feeling relieved, a hand suddenly reached into the gap between them.
Xia Chenxing tensed. She was certain that this man was following her. She decided to strike first and aimed a karate chop at the head that was about to enter the elevator. The man reacted quickly, sidestepping the attack. But Xia Chenxing didn't stop. She raised her foot to attack the man's lower body, but he dodged it again. Unfortunately, she was wearing stiletto heels today. Since the attack had been dodged, she couldn't retract her strength. The heel of her shoe shot straight up into the air and caught in the gap in the elevator. She couldn't pull it out. The man didn't hit her back. Instead, he stood aside and laughed.
Xia Chenxing looked up and saw a familiar face. She said speechlessly, "Why is it you again…"
Li Ruixu smiled and said, "I didn't expect Miss Xia to be so skilled. Well, her flexibility is also very good."
The space in the elevator was narrow. Xia Chenxing was stuck at the entrance of the elevator in a long dress. That scene…
Xia Chenxing said awkwardly, "Sir, it's a misunderstanding. It's all a misunderstanding. I thought I was being followed by a bad person, so I attacked."
Li Ruixu was looking at her with a face full of smiles and no intention of helping.
Xia Chenxing cursed him countless times in her heart before pretending to be calm. "Sir."
"Huh? What's the matter, Miss Xia?" Li Ruixu replied quickly.
What nonsense! Did she look fine? Xia Chenxing gritted her teeth so hard that they were about to shatter. She tried her best to control her urge to curse and said, "I need your help now."
"Oh, is that it?" Li Ruixu pointed innocently at the jammed heel.
Xia Chenxing took a deep breath and squeezed out, "Yes!"
Then Li Ruixu walked over unhurriedly and reached out to pull out the heel of her shoe.
Xia Chenxing finally stepped on the ground and rolled her eyes at him reluctantly. "Thank you!"
Li Ruixu, on the other hand, was calm. Without turning around, he said, "You're welcome."
Xia Chenxing stood behind him, gesturing with her hands and feet to ease her anger while he was out of sight. However, she had forgotten that the metal walls in the elevator were reflective. Li Ruixu saw all her movements clearly. He didn't care. Instead, he secretly smiled.
Ding. The elevator stopped and they reached the tenth floor. When the doors opened, Xia Chenxing stopped and rushed out. Before she reached her house, she realized that the door of the haunted house next door had been changed to a combination lock. She muttered to herself, "So people really live here, but why didn't anyone answer when I knocked that night?"
At that moment, Li Ruixu walked over and stood calmly in front of the door next door. He pressed the fingerprint to the door and it opened with a beep. Under Xia Chenxing's surprised gaze, Li Ruixu said, "Miss Xia, I'm not obliged to answer your knock, am I?"
Xia Chenxing was angered again. She snorted and quickly opened the door to enter. Just as she was about to close the door, someone pulled it open.
Li Ruixu opened the door a little wider and asked, "Miss Xia, I'm curious about something. Are you really unable to forget Young Master Yin? In order to take revenge on him for breaking up with you, you caused a commotion at the banquet and deliberately raised the price to snatch the auction item?"
Xia Chenxing crossed her arms and raised her head to ask, "Sir, I have no obligation to answer your curiosity." With that, she pulled the door shut.
Li Ruixu was too stunned to react for a few seconds. He didn't look happy.
