Chapter 48: Definitely Can't Move Right Now

At 10:20, Xia Chu arrived at the construction site of the law firm.

Jiang Ziyao had already donned a helmet and mask and was supervising the work inside.

Seeing her arrive, she exclaimed in surprise, "Didn't you send a message early in the morning saying you were going to the Civil Affairs Bureau and wouldn't come? Why did you still show up? Did you realize, at the last moment, that you couldn't bear to leave?"

Xia Chu rolled her eyes at her. "Yeah, I couldn't bear to leave. It's strange, right? Of course, there's a reason. Yesterday afternoon, before I even entered my home, I heard voices. When I went in, I saw Huo Xiyao's sister had arrived…"

Jiang Ziyao quickly interrupted her, "Ha, he really does have a sister? I thought it was some cunning person making up an excuse to chase a girl, creating a sister out of nowhere. I didn't expect it to be true."
