Chapter 461: Chapter 461: Blocking Her Escape Route _1
Liu Qingyin looked back to find that all the men sitting on the sofa were watching her.
Aside from Ye Qilan’s relatively calm expression, both Beichuan and Fu Yan were looking as if they had seen a ghost.
It was Mo Li who reacted first, rushing out of the private room in pursuit.
“Am I that scary?” Liu Qingyin asked innocently.
She just wanted to see if that woman was really that beautiful. She didn’t drive her away.
The usually silent Ye Qilan suddenly rose from his seat, not uttering a word as he left the private room.
“Is Ye Qilan happy or upset?” Liu Qingyin asked Beichuan.
Beichuan was at a loss. How was he to know whether Ye Qilan was happy or not? Over the past few years, Ye Qilan had become quite reserved, and it was hard for others to tell his mood.
What he wanted to know more was why Ye Qilan had also left the private room. Was he going after that assistant, too?
Only then Fu Yan remembered the woman he had offered to Ye Qilan had run away, and he too rushed out to follow…
Su Hongxing ran around in panic, unable to find an exit.
She had no idea why she was so panicked, maybe because she didn’t expect to encounter so many familiar faces so quickly.
It had been more than three years since she left Liu Qingyin. Would Qingyin hate her if she knew she had returned early?
As for Ye Qilan, she had tried to quietly observe him, but found his thoughts completely inscrutable. She didn’t even know if Ye Qilan had recognized her.
He probably hadn’t, right? After all, Ye Qilan didn’t seem to show any emotional fluctuation.
She was so thin now, and had applied such heavy makeup, he couldn’t possibly recognize her.
Su Hongxing’s mind was a mess as she ran around, getting even more lost. The Red House was immense and all the areas looked the same. After running around aimlessly, she finally thought to ask someone where the exit was.
Having finally found out, she ran to the exit only to find Age standing at the door.
It wasn’t just Age, there were about a dozen tall, broad men standing beside him, all in a formal military stance.
Su Hongxing assessed the situation, then looked at her own appearance, and took out a mirror to look at her face.
If she passed by Age , he probably wouldn’t recognize her, right?
Bracing herself, she was about to walk out boldly when, to her dismay, Ye Qilan appeared just as she took a step.
Ye Qilan was conversing with Age about some significant matter, blocking the entranceway without any signs of moving anytime soon.
Su Hongxing hesitated.
Age was one thing; she was confident he wouldn’t recognize her. But when faced with the cunning Ye Qilan, she truly had no confidence at all.
She even suspected that Ye Qilan had already recognized her and knew that she hadn’t left, so he was deliberately blocking her escape route.
After much thought, she stepped back and asked a waitress, “Do you have a back door here?”
The waitress shook her head, coldly replying with two words: “No!”
Just as she was fretting, a call came from Mo Li.
“Where are you?” Mo Li had left The Red House but still hadn’t found the person he was looking for.
“At The Red House.” Su Hongxing replied, slightly out of breath.
“Weren’t you ahead of me? How are you still at The Red House?” Mo Li’s voice became louder.
Su Hongxing blushed a little: “Uh, I got lost.”
She never expected that she, who wasn’t directionally challenged, would get lost one day. She could only blame her guilt for making her move rashly and losing the initiative.
Su Hongxing could almost hear Mo Li silently cursing her in his heart.
