Papa An’s face froze for two seconds before he replied with a smile, “No, she didn’t . You can ask Xiaxia herself . ”

Munching on her sandwich, An Xiaxia stuffed her mouth with food . She blinked at the question and tilted her head . “No, I didn’t . I never knew how to swim, nor was I around water . So how could I fall in?”
Sheng Yize’s face turned pale and he slowly clenched his fists under the table .
All these years, he had been looking for a person .
A person that he was very much indebted to .
The other day when An Xiaxia had scratched his car, he found her quite funny and those black pupils reminded him so much of that person in his memory, so he had decided to tease her a little and got someone to check her background .
The investigation then came back suggesting that An Xiaxia could well be that person he had been searching high and low for all these years .
This news had shocked Sheng Yize . It just so happened that conflict had started to emerge between the group and the company and their manager arranged for them to go back to school . He then requested their manager to enroll them into Qixia without a second thought .

Hence, everything fell into place . They became classmates and moved in together, none of which An Xiaxia had expected . However, they were all part of his plan .
But now… someone up there had played such a joke on him!
An Xiaxia was not the one he was looking for!
“Hm… do you want this?” An Xiaxia brought him a sandwich and smiled at him ingratiatingly .
After all, she was counting on Sheng Yize to take her as a crew member .
However, Sheng Yize’s face was expressionless and his eyes looked so deep and dark . There was a complicated emotion in them which she couldn’t comprehend .
“Let me ask you again . Have you never fallen into water?” Sheng Yize lowered his voice .

An Xiaxia shook her head, finding him unreasonable . “No, why would I lie to you about that?”
Sheng Yize suddenly rose to his feet and an intimidating air came off him . An Xiaxia instinctively stumbled back .
The air around him was so cold and he felt so intimidating though he didn’t show any anger . Frightened, An Xiaxia dropped the sandwich in her hand .
Sheng Yize walked past her and went straight upstairs .
He even stumbled when climbing the stairs and almost fell down .
An Xiaxia was very puzzled . She turned to her dad for help .
Papa An seemed very secretive about the subject . After telling An Xiaxia to have a good rest, he excused himself from the room .

An Xiaxia stared blankly at the air for a moment, heaved a sigh, then gave the sandwich on the floor a sorry look .
Hm… the floor wasn’t really dirty . So could she pick it up and eat it?
After going back to her room, An Xiaxia slept all the way until that evening .
She was indeed exhausted from the past two days . Although she wasn’t injured in any way since Sheng Yize had protected her, she still had sore muscles all over her body after waking up . She thought she could use some exercise downstairs .
She ran into Sheng Yize on the landing of the stairs .
“Sheng Yize, shouldn’t you be in bed?” said An Xiaxia in a worried tone .
Sheng Yize lowered his cap and explained, “I need to go to the company . Something came up and I’m needed for the press . ”
An Xiaxia acknowledged that with an “oh . ” Touching the tips of her index fingers together, she was trying to find something to say to Sheng Yize, but he had already started to walk down the stairs .
Speechless, she walked down with him . When Sheng Yize opened the front door, he looked into a bright, smiling face .
“Why, Sheng Yize, I see you’re still alive . ” Qi Yanxi squinted and spoke in a menacing tone .
Sheng Yize sneered back . “I am . Disappointed, aren’t you?”
Standing behind Sheng Yize, An Xiaxia swore she could smell gunpowder smoke .
