"Where have you been all these four years? What have you done? If you left so resolutely in the first place, why have you come back now?"
Lu Lingxiao's tone was very heavy and his pace slow, the string of questions coming out without any sign of haste.
Ye Xi remained silent.
After a long time, she lightly opened her red lips and said, "Went abroad."
Lu Lingxiao let out a laugh, full of irony.
So she was still the same, nothing but lies, just like before—not a single word of truth.
During the time Ye Xi left, Lu Lingxiao hadn't failed to send people to look for her, even getting information about her supposedly going abroad, and he had spared no effort to retrieve her immigration records.
There were no records of her leaving the country, which meant she must have been within the country at the time.
But what he didn't know was that Ye Xi hadn't lied.
During that period, Ye Xi indeed hadn't gone abroad but had been hidden away.
