Chapter 127 Thanks to Aric for the feeding

She couldn't help but think of the plot in the horror movie - there was a knock on the door in the middle of the night, the protagonist looked out the door through the cat's eyes, but suddenly met a magnified grimace...

Boom, boom, boom!

At this time, there was another knock on the door outside.

Xie Yuqing forced herself to calm down, stood on tiptoe and looked out of the cat's eyes.

There is no horror scene in the fantasy, only a waitress-like white man is standing in front of the door with a plate of fruit cutting.

Xie Yuqing asked cautiously through the door panel, "Who is it?"

"The fruit your friend ordered has arrived." The waitress raised her voice and replied.

friend?

Although a little suspicious, the two points of "waiter" and "female" were enough to make her let down her guard a little and opened the door.

The waitress smiled and gave her the fruit cut plate in her hand.

Xie Yuqing caught it subconsciously, but she was a little puzzled, "I didn't order any fruit."

wow-

Suddenly, behind her came the previous sound of glass breaking.

Xie Yuqing was startled, and just about to turn her head to look, her arm was grabbed by the waitress in front of her.

The waitress showed her a big smile, "Ma'am, this is what your friend ordered for you."

"Who? Did you leave your name?" Xie Yuqing was indeed attracted.

"Aric."

Hearing this name, Xie Yuqing was a little overwhelmed.

But the waitress glanced behind her quickly, and then said to her with a smile, "Ma'am, you should go to bed earlier, excuse me."

When Xie Yuqing came back to her senses, the other party had already closed the door for her.

"..."

what's the situation?
Xie Yuqing pestered the door panel for a while, then returned to the inner room with Guoqie in her hands.

However, as soon as she put the plate on the table, she suddenly felt something strange from the corner of her eye. When she turned her head to look over, she found that the curtain on the side of the wall had not been blown automatically, and one corner of it was drooping on the armrest of the sofa.

She couldn't help but startled.

The curtains just now...is that the case?

Xie Yuqing subconsciously remembered that strange cracking sound, but she couldn't force these two irrelevant things together.

What's more, the expression of the waitress just now was very calm, obviously she didn't hear the movement.

Maybe she was overthinking.

But Aric...

How did he know she lived here?

And let people send fruit...

Apples, oranges, kiwis, blackberries...they're all things she doesn't like, absolutely.

Xie Yuqing hesitated for a moment, took out her mobile phone to ask, but found that Aric was online 3 minutes ago.

[Aric Russell: Why do you ask that? 】

Instead of answering her question, he asked back, looking a little wary.

But yes, they never knew each other, but she often asked some questions that touch the bottom line of privacy, it's abnormal not to doubt,

For this situation, Xie Yuqing decided to adapt to the situation and cut straight to the point.

【Vita Xie: Well... the thing is like this, didn't I ask you to help me find out about Jinkuo Villa before?In fact, it was because I found out that my identity had been stolen, but I just found out today that the nursing home seems to be run by your family?Are you clear about this? 】

She asked bluntly but not sharply, and she placed the other party in a position of ignorance in her words, avoiding possible embarrassment.

However, she thought she was asking a clever question, but Aric's response was——

[Aric Russell: Did the people around you tell you today? 】

Xie Yuqing was a little confused.

The people around her today?
Why are you so convoluted?

However, he found Zhong Yao?
Xie Yuqing typed tentatively:

[Vita Xie: Who are you talking about? 】

After sending this sentence, she habitually glanced up at the chat history, and suddenly wanted to laugh.

The content of the chat between the two of them was actually not answering questions, testing each other, pulling each other.

That's interesting, this Aric.

Although knowing that he is a certain nobleman, even that family may not be that simple, but for Aric himself, Xie Yuqing has an optimistic and positive attitude.

Because, she was the one who took the initiative to join.
