"Xiaotang, next time you meet a bad kid like that, kick hard!"
Giving Xiaotang a thumbs up, Chu Xinqing dragged Qiao Liang away.
Qiao Liang was pulled a few steps before he immediately stopped and clutched his stomach with his hand.
"Ah... my stomach... it hurts so much..."
"No, really..." he bent over in pain, "it hurts so much... I can’t, I need to go to the restroom."
Snatching his arm back, he turned and ran.
"Lu Ziliang!" Chu Xinqing chased after him all the way, and when she saw him rush into the men’s restroom, she had to stop, "Lu Ziliang, I’m telling you, I will wait for you right here, don’t think you can escape again!"
Qiao Liang straightened up, looked left and right, and when he saw the ventilation window on the wall, the corner of his lips lifted, and he immediately walked over to peek out the window at the terrace outside, then nimbly climbed out.
Chu Xinqing crossed her arms, looking smug.
She knew that he would definitely come tonight, and as expected, she had waited for him.
This stinky brat, she would be extra careful tonight and certainly wouldn’t let him get away.
However, waiting left and right, for a full ten minutes, Lu Ziliang still had not come out, and Chu Xinqing was inevitably anxious.
"Lu Ziliang... Lu Ziliang!"
She called out several times, but there was no response from inside.
Seeing a gentleman come out, she approached him worriedly.
"Sir, please, is there anyone else inside?"
"It doesn’t seem so," the other replied.
This guy, he didn’t faint inside, did he?
Biting her lip, she stepped forward and knocked.
"Anyone there? Lu Ziliang... are you dead or what, speak up... Lu Ziliang!"
After several calls without a response, she grew anxious and pushed the door open.
Inside the men’s restroom, only one man stood urinating. Seeing her come in, he hastily zipped up his pants.
"What... what are you doing?"
Chu Xinqing ignored him, running over and pushing open the stalls one by one in search, but not finding Qiao Liang. Her gaze swept over the window, and she immediately rushed to it.
The window was open, with the terrace railing outside, and a gap of about half a meter between them, big enough to slip through.
"Lu Ziliang, you bastard!"
Chu Xinqing, infuriated, stamped her foot and charged out.
She looked around the banquet and didn’t find Qiao Liang, so she turned and rushed towards the exit.
Just outside the exit, someone was coming in. Caught off-guard, Chu Xinqing ran into them.
She rushed to apologize.
"Damn klutz!" The other person cursed in English.
Chu Xinqing had already walked past the other person intending to leave, but when she heard the curse, she stopped, turned back, and looked.
It’s not like she did it on purpose, and she already apologized, so when the other person still cursed at her, with her temper as a spoilt young lady, Chu Xinqing wouldn’t just swallow her anger.
"Who are you calling?"
"I don’t have time for you!"
Annie replied impatiently and stepped into the venue.
Giving Annie a glare, Chu Xinqing quickly headed towards the exit. She circled around the elevator area and still didn’t find Qiao Liang.
Her gaze lingered momentarily on the elevator doors, and Chu Xinqing raised her eyebrows slightly.
That guy was here for Gan Yuan, and with his personality, he probably wouldn’t just leave so easily.
Thinking it over, she returned to the venue, wary of Qiao Liang discovering her. She carefully stayed behind the crowd, crouched, and moved forward gingerly, scanning the area for Qiao Liang.
Where the hell have this stinky brat hidden?!
