"I have something to talk to her about." Lu Jinnian paused for a moment, then asked, "Do you know where she is right now?"
Qiao Anxia had always been smart. From Lu Jinnian's anxious expression, she vaguely guessed that there was a misunderstanding between the two of them. What's more, Lu Jinnian looked like he hadn't slept all night, as though he had been in the rain last night. He was probably looking for or waiting for Qiao Anhao. But what he didn't know was that Qiao Anhao had fallen down the stairs. Two hours ago, she was out of danger, and was still unconscious in intensive care...
These thoughts flashed through Qiao Anxia's mind. As long as she asked, Lu Jinnian would be able to find Qiao Anhao.
Qiao Anxia didn't directly answer Lu Jinnian's question. Instead, she asked with a hint of speculation, "Did Qiao Qiao get into a fight with you because of Xu Enterprise?"
Lu Jinnian didn't reply, but his tightly pursed lips let Qiao Anxia know that she had guessed correctly.
Qiao Anxia remained silent for about half a minute. This time, even though it was a question, her tone was firm. "You don't want to lose Qiao Qiao, so you came to find me and ask where she is, right?"
Lu Jinnian still didn't say a word.
Just then, the waiter brought two cups of coffee over.
Qiao Anxia said "Thank you" in a low voice. After the waiter left, she stirred the coffee and took a sip. Then she said to herself, "Lu Jinnian, I can tell you where Qiao Qiao is, but first, you have to answer a question."
Lu Jinnian didn't touch the coffee in front of him. The moment Qiao Anxia's voice fell, he nodded without hesitation. "Ask away."
Qiao Anxia took a deep breath, and said in a calm voice, "I know that Xu Jiamu woke up not long ago. You were the one who pretended to be husband and wife with Qiao Qiao. I want to ask you a question, and that is, if I was the one who arranged the marriage with Xu Jiamu, and you and I pretended to be a fake couple, would our relationship be closer now?"
Lu Jinnian was about to reply, but Qiao Anxia beat him to it. "Lu Jinnian, you know what kind of answer I want to hear. As long as you answer, I'll immediately tell you where Qiao Qiao is."
Lu Jinnian knew what Qiao Anxia was hinting at. His eyes, which hadn't slept all night, were bloodshot as he stared straight at Qiao Anxia. Without a hint of hesitation on his face, he said, "If you had been the one to marry Xu Jiamu, I wouldn't have agreed to let them act as Xu Jiamu."
Qiao Anxia's lips curved into a slight smile. She lowered her eyes and glanced at the coffee in her cup. After a while, she raised her head and stared at Lu Jinnian. "Lu Jinnian, if you say yes, I'll immediately tell you where she is..."
Lu Jinnian didn't wait for Qiao Anxia to finish speaking. He stood up from his chair, and with a faint "Sorry", he placed two bills on the table and prepared to get up.
Qiao Anxia hurriedly stood up. "Lu Jinnian, have you forgotten why you came looking for me?"
Lu Jinnian's expression didn't change as he turned around.
Qiao Anxia hurriedly reached out and grabbed Lu Jinnian's arm. "You just need to lie to me, and you'll know where she is..."
