Here.

After Xiao Muchen sat down, his eyes unconsciously fell on the figure not far away, and he asked casually: "Who is that?"

"Gu Jingzhan's cousin." Xiang Wanqiao replied.

Xiao Muchen quietly withdrew his gaze and immediately started the topic: "I heard that Gu Jingzhan had a car accident a few days ago, and it seemed to be quite serious. How is he now? Is he awake?"

Hearing this, a hint of deep meaning flashed in Xiang Wanqiao's eyes.

She was reserved about Xiao Muchen and answered vaguely: "It's still the same, no improvement."

"Did you find out who did it?"

Xiao Muchen naturally felt something, so when he asked, he directly skipped the option of accident.

Xiang Wanqiao answered cautiously: "With Ah Zhan's current status, he will naturally offend some people. As for who caused this car accident, it is still unknown."

Xiao Muchen frowned, looked at Xiang Wanqiao with concern, and reminded her, "You should also be more careful. After all, with your relationship with Gu Jingzhan, you might be the next one to get into trouble."

Xiang Wanqiao didn't say anything, just nodded at him.

"If you need any help from me, just let me know. You can also contact me at any time." Xiao Muchen said sincerely.

Xiang Wanqiao remained distant: "Thank you, but I don't need it for now."

It’s not that Xiao Muchen doesn’t feel anything. There’s a barely perceptible hint of loneliness in his expression.

He smiled slightly and looked away.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Muchen suddenly said, "Xiao Xun'an is dead."

Hearing this, Xiang Wanqiao did not react much, and said calmly: "Well, I watched the news."

Xiao Muchen's eyes fell on her again, staring at her straight, trying to catch something from her face that was as calm as water.

"Does this matter... have anything to do with you?" he asked in a curious tone.

Xiang Wanqiao smiled gently and asked curiously, "Why does Mr. Xiao think this matter has something to do with me?"

Xiao Muchen shook his head lightly, "No, just a casual question."

"I thought you wanted to stand up for your half brother Didi and avenge him," she said half-jokingly.

"Whether he's dead or alive is none of my business." Xiao Muchen's voice was a little colder. "It's better for him to die, so that he won't harm others anymore."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiang Wanqiao's cell phone on the table vibrated.

She lowered her eyes and glanced at the screen of her mobile phone. It was a WeChat message from Gu Jingzhan.

He asked: [When will you come back? 】

After reading the WeChat message, Xiang Wanqiao did not reply immediately, but looked up at Xiao Muchen opposite her.

"Mr. Xiao, do you have anything else to say? If not, I'll leave first."

"That..." Xiao Muchen said, "Grandpa is also concerned about your recent situation. He also asked me to ask you when you are free to come to his house for a simple meal when I see you."

Xiang Wanqiao pursed her lips and said, "I appreciate Grandpa's kindness, but as for the meal..."

Xiao Muchen thought she was worried about something, and hurriedly explained: "Don't worry, Xiao Qigang is not in the Xiao family. After Xiao Xuan'an died, he went abroad and said that he wanted to spend his old age abroad."

However, Xiang Wanqiao still replied indifferently: "Let's talk about dinner later."

"Of course, I'm not saying it has to be now."

Xiao Muchen understood Xiang Wanqiao. He knew that she had a very bad impression of the Xiao family because of Xiao Xuan'an, so she was always wary and cautious towards him.

But he didn't want to stay like this forever.

Xiao Muchen said softly: "Actually, you don't need to be so defensive against me. I'm different from Xiao Xuan. I have no ill will towards you."

Xiang Wanqiao pursed her lips and smiled faintly: "Mr. Xiao, you are joking. I don't mean to be on guard against you."

A glimmer of insight flashed in Xiao Muchen's eyes, but he didn't expose her.

He smiled and said, "I was just worrying too much."

Xiang Wanqiao stood up and finally said with relief: "If there is a chance, I will go to visit Grandpa Xiao with my husband."

"it is good."

Just as Xiang Wanqiao turned around, he asked her again: "Can we be friends?"

Xiang Wanqiao paused, then replied: "It's good now."

After saying that, she left.

Xiao Muchen looked at Xiang Wanqiao's departing back, a faint bitter smile appearing on his lips.

He was too late after all.
