Meng Xi'er listened as he softly said behind her, "Xixi, I'm putting my life in your hands."
Meng Xi'er felt a slight shudder, subconsciously raising her head to look at Lu Yebai.
At a glance, she fell into those pitch-black eyes.
So profound, deep enough to drown someone in those eyes.
She looked away, unsure what to say.
Even if she knew his every move, what use would it be?
The key was that he controlled her actions.
Meng Xi'er bit down hard on her teeth, her expression somewhat at a loss.
Lu Yebai mistakenly thought she was touched. He remained silent, the two of them, each harboring their own thoughts, sat on the sofa.
After lunch, in the afternoon, Meng Xi'er saw Lu Yebai putting on his suit, about to go out, and couldn't help but ask, "Are you going out today?"
"I have a business meeting tonight."
Meng Xi'er walked over and helped him adjust his tie. "Can I come with you? I'm bored at home by myself."
