Lu Xia stood on the street. Her mind was in a mess. It was already 1pm and she had nowhere to go. She did not dare go back to her grandmother's place.
She was afraid that Huo Yulin would do something terrible.
At that moment, a motorcycle sped over from the side of the road. Lu Xia did not notice that her branded bag was hanging on her shoulder. The next moment, the motorcycle approached her. She felt a strong pull and the bag was grabbed by the strap.
Lu Xia stumbled and tripped over the suitcase in front of her. She still had her ID and bank card in her bag, so she quickly grabbed the strap of the bag and refused to let go.
The motorcycle driver did not seem to expect that he would not get the bag. He tugged at it a few times but still failed. There were passersby on the side of the road. Afraid of being caught, he gave up.
Soon, the motorcycle drove off and disappeared into the street in the blink of an eye.
The passersby hurried over and helped Lu Xia up. "Are you okay?"
Lu Xia's sunglasses fell off when she fell. She was afraid of being recognized, so she quickly pulled her hand back to cover her face. She didn't say thank you to anyone and hurriedly lowered her head to look for her sunglasses on the floor.
The passersby who helped her up felt uncomfortable when she pushed the passersby away.
But in the end, he didn't care too much about it and said, "There are a lot of robbers on this road. It's easy to get robbed like this."
The passersby paused and glanced at Lu Xia before he kindly said, "Did someone rob you? Do you want to call the police? "
The moment Lu Xia heard the word "call the police," she immediately shook her head. Her voice was shrill and she reacted very strongly. "No! Don't call the police!"
Although she no longer had a good reputation on the internet, if people knew that she appeared in such a small county and was even rumored to have been robbed, many netizens would laugh at her.
She would not allow such a humiliating incident to happen again.
"I don't need to call the police," Lu Xia murmured again, and then tightly held the bag that was almost snatched away in her arms. 126chinese website
It seemed like he was guarding against something.
The passersby's hand that was holding the phone paused. An awkward look flashed across his face.
Was he being struck by lightning for his good intentions?
The man put away his phone and left without saying anything else. He would just take it as a f * cking dog today.
Lu Xia lowered her head to look at her scraped right palm. The pain in her knee reminded her that she could not stay here any longer.
Not only was she chased out of the hotel, but she was also robbed. If she continued to stay, who knew what other accidents would happen in the next moment?
Lu Xia shivered. She cast aside her purpose of coming back this time and hailed a taxi by the roadside. She asked the driver to take her to the airport.

At night, Huo Yulin heaved a sigh of relief when he received a message from Cheng Ming saying that Lu Xia had boarded a plane back to City S.
No matter what that woman wanted to do when she came back, at least as long as he and his sister were still at the old lady's house, he would not allow her to appear and ruin everyone's mood.
After dinner, Huo Yulin went back to his room. He was not in the mood to watch Min Yu.
To be exact, ever since he met Lu Xia in the morning, he had been in low spirits. She had stirred up the darkness in his heart.
Huo Yao looked at her third older brother's retreating back thoughtfully. He had been behaving strangely ever since he came back with the package in the morning. Even though he had behaved normally today, she could not help but notice his subtle emotions.
