"What if I insist on making you my woman?"
"No way, you’re dreaming." Han Xi said through gritted teeth.
Li Chenghao’s thin lips lightly brushed against Han Xi’s earlobe, knowing it was her most sensitive spot: "I will definitely win you back from Lu Jinghan."
Before Han Xi could speak, the phone in her bag rang. She instinctively reached for it, and Li Chenghao did not stop her.
"Xiao Xi, where are you? We’ve already arrived." It was Chu Ci’s voice on the other end.
"I’ll be right over."
After hanging up, Han Xi frowned slightly at Li Chenghao: "Don’t destroy even the little bit of good left in my heart. It’s absolutely impossible for me to return to you."
Li Chenghao released Han Xi’s arm with a faint smile at the corner of his lips: "Hurry on then, Chu Ci and the others will get anxious waiting."
Such gentle tone and affectionate gaze, as if Han Xi were indeed his girlfriend.
As the elevator doors opened, Han Xi ran out without a second thought.
After finding Chu Ci and the others in the café on the first floor, the three of them went upstairs to shop.
"Xiao Xi, what were you up to just now?" Chu Ci asked casually, linking her arm with Han Xi’s.
"I ran into an old acquaintance in the parking lot and exchanged a few words."
With great enthusiasm, Li Manman talked about sleeping with Feng Yi to Han Xi and Chu Ci. Such private matters would never be discussed by Han Xi and Chu Ci, but this carefree sister spoke about it with relish.
For instance, their positions in bed, how many times Feng Yi wanted her in one night, and the feeling on the bed...
The imagery was as vulgar as one could imagine.
Han Xi seemed a bit distracted, thinking about what Li Chenghao did to her just now, and the texts she received every night, causing her inexplicable fear.
Han Xi felt that Li Chenghao’s feelings for her had become somewhat pathological.
"Xiao Xi, what’s the matter with you, are you worried about something?"
Hearing Chu Ci talking to her, Han Xi finally snapped back to reality: "Nothing, just thinking about what we should eat for lunch?"
"You’re such a foodie." Li Manman said, turning around as she walked ahead.
Today, Chu Ci only wore a baseball cap without a mask, and passersby recognized her, exclaiming and wanting to take photos.
Chu Ci was very friendly, generously taking photos with fans and signing autographs for them.
Han Xi and Li Manman stood aside waiting, and shopping with a celebrity certainly attracted a lot of attention.
It took over ten minutes before Chu Ci emerged from the cluster of fans, and the three of them entered a women’s clothing store together.
The shop assistant warmly greeted them; they tried on many things and also bought a lot, and as they came out with bags, Li Manman suggested looking at jewelry and shoes.
While Chu Ci and Li Manman were browsing jewelry, Han Xi went to the men’s store to buy a few sets of clothes for Lu Jinghan.
Just as she came out of the store, her phone rang again in her bag. Setting down her things, Han Xi pulled out her phone, seeing an unfamiliar number on the screen, her heart filled with unease.
With a light tap of her fingertips, she opened the message to see a glaring image crashing into her eyesight—it was a photo of Li Chenghao forcibly kissing her in the elevator.
A few seconds later, another message came through.
[I don’t like you buying clothes for other men.]
Startled, Han Xi almost dropped her phone. In a panic, she looked around but couldn’t find any trace of Li Chenghao.
