Shen You did not intend to care about Huo Xiao. She was sitting at the bar counter, looking at the computer in front of her, and studying the information on the blog post.

Huo Xiao sipped his coffee quietly, his eyes occasionally glancing in Shen You’s direction.

Li Juan saw that something seemed to be going on between the two of them, so she just watched by the side far away.

Finally, Huo Xiao pushed the empty coffee cup in front of Shen You. “Can I have another cup?”

Shen You did not raise her head. “Sister Juan…”

Huo Xiao turned to look at Li Juan.

Li Juan was sensible and did not go forward. She only watched from afar.

Seeing that Li Juan did not respond to her, Shen You looked up and saw that Huo Xiao was already standing in front of her.

Shen You took the coffee cup from the table and turned to make another cup for Huo Xiao.

She did not know what she was angry about. She just did not want to talk to Huo Xiao at this moment.

She could feel the luck value on Huo Xiao. It was a fatal attraction to her.

However, she was resisting that attraction now.

As it would not belong to her in the end!

That feeling made Shen You feel empty in her heart…

It felt like the way out that she had finally found was suddenly blocked by someone.

Huo Xiao looked at Shen You’s back. He was silent for a moment. In the end, he still turned around and left.

After Huo Xiao left, Li Juan came to Shen You’s side and asked, “What happened to you guys?”

Shen You shook her head and did not speak.

She did not know what had happened to herself either.

Xie Xiao returned to the coffee shop after school and saw Shen You sitting at the bar counter. “Why are you here? Where’s my sister?”

Shen You reached out and spoke near Xie Xiao’s ear. “I don’t know what Sister Chen saw today. She rushed out and when she came back, she looked like she was in a daze.”

“I saw that she was a little absent-minded, so I told her to go back and rest first,” Shen You said in a low voice.

Xie Xiao frowned. “Then I’ll go and see her!”

The whole night, Shen You did not see Xie Chen walk out of the room.

During dinner, Shen You asked Xie Xiao, who looked worried. “What happened to Sister Chen?”

Xie Xiao shook her head. “She refused to tell me.”

Shen You nodded. “Don’t worry too much! She might be too tired.”

“Yeah, maybe,” Xie Xiao said uncertainly.

Shen You also knew that she was just consoling her.

After dinner, the two of them sat on the sofa in the living room in a daze.

Xie Xiao hugged the pillow and looked at the television in front of her. But she was not paying attention to what was playing on the television.

Shen You was also thinking about all sorts of things in her mind. The flashing scenes in front of her were like a movie in her mind.

Xie Xiao suddenly turned to look at Shen You. “Xiao You, do you think my sister saw…”

Shen You looked at Xie Xiao, waiting for her to say something.

Xie Xiao suddenly stopped talking. “Impossible! That person can’t be back!”

“Who is that person?” Shen You asked curiously.

Xie Xiao shook her head and sighed. “My sister used to have a very good boyfriend.”

“But it’s said that her boyfriend’s family disapproved of their relationship.” Xie Xiao frowned deeply and seemed to be very dissatisfied.

“The two of them had planned to leave this place and move to another place to live,” Xie Xiao continued.

“But, when my sister had already made all the preparations, that man suddenly disappeared,” Xie Xiao said with a face full of resentment.

“At that time, my sister even went to the man’s house to ask for an explanation. But his family said that he and his fiancée had gone abroad to settle down.” There was a deep resentment on Xie Xiao’s face.

“My sister wanted to ask the man about it, but his family refused to say where he was!” Xie Xiao said as she punched the pillow in front of her fiercely.

“Then… what happened after that?” Shen You looked at Xie Xiao’s angry look and felt that things were not over yet.

“After that, my family’s business suddenly suffered a blow.” Xie Xiao shrugged.

“My parents suffered a lot and vented their anger on my sister,” Xie Xiao said as she looked at Shen You with a faint light in her eyes.

“You have no idea how pitiful my sister was at that time!” Xie Xiao said with a sobbing tone.

“She was already so miserable after being cheated by a man! Our family business suffered a blow, and she had to think of a way to help,” Xie Xiao sobbed.

“But not only did my parents not understand her, they even made things difficult for her!” Tears were already rolling down Xie Xiao’s face.

“At that time, I really hated my parents to death!” Xie Xiao’s tone was tinged with hatred.

Shen You gently reached out her hand and patted Xie Xiao’s shoulder.
