Chapter 183 Doubt

After lunch, Xu Lingfeng and Ouyang Mengmian strolled along the scenic river bank, enjoying the quiet time of the afternoon. The sun shone on the river, sparkling, and the breeze blew, bringing bursts of coolness. The two chatted while walking, and the topic was relaxed and pleasant.

Suddenly, Ouyang Mengmian faced Xu Lingfeng with a very apologetic expression on his face: "Xu Lingfeng, I'm so sorry - I still have to go to work in the evening, and now I have to go back early to prepare."

Xu Lingfeng was slightly startled when he heard this. Based on his intuition, he knew that Ouyang Mengmian was trying to trick him by telling him that she had to go back early to prepare for work.

He believed in Ouyang Mengmian's ability. Even if she wanted to go back to make some so-called preparations, she didn't have to go back so early. She wanted to leave now, so there must be something else.

Xu Lingfeng's mind could not help but recall the scene of Ouyang Mengmian answering the mysterious phone call during dinner. Thinking that there might be a man like Li Xin behind the phone call, Xu Lingfeng could not help but secretly clench his fists.

But in front of Ouyang Mengmian, Xu Lingfeng didn't say much. After a short silence, his face returned to the same gentle smile as before. He nodded to Ouyang Mengmian with great understanding and generosity: "It's okay, Mengmian. I'll take you home first, and I'll pick you up in the evening."

Ouyang Mengmian had planned to go back to the apartment to see Su Jingsi after she separated from Xu Lingfeng. She felt very sorry for ordering him food so late at noon. She lived in the apartment to take care of Su Jingsi's diet and daily life. If she ordered food for Su Jingsi outside at night, it would be a bit unreasonable.

Hearing Xu Lingfeng say that he would pick her up in the evening, Ouyang Mengmian could not help but feel flustered. This obviously disrupted Ouyang Mengmian's plan - the apartment and her residence were located in different places, and she had no extra time to run between the two different places. At this moment, Ouyang Mengmian's heart was full of anxiety and uneasiness.

"That... that's not necessary... It's not like I don't know the way... How about we meet at the bar and see you in the evening?"

Perhaps because she couldn't find a suitable excuse to reject Xu Lingfeng, Ouyang Mengmian's words were inevitably halting, revealing her inner nervousness.

Xu Lingfeng immediately realized the unusual meaning from Ouyang Mengmian's words. He stared at Ouyang Mengmian closely, trying to catch a hint of flaws from her eyes and expression.

Under Xu Lingfeng's sharp gaze, Ouyang Mengmian's eyes flickered more and more, as if she was deliberately avoiding his sight. Her expression also became a little unnatural, as if she was hiding some secret. This behavior of trying to cover up made Xu Lingfeng more convinced that the "friend" Ouyang Mengmian mentioned was definitely problematic.

Although his heart was filled with turmoil, Xu Lingfeng's expression was as calm as a lake. He stared at Ouyang Mengmian quietly, as if listening attentively to her suggestion. Afterwards, he nodded slightly, indicating that he agreed with the idea, but in the depths of his deep eyes there was an imperceptible undercurrent.

Seeing that Xu Lingfeng agreed to her arrangement, Ouyang Mengmian finally relaxed her tense nerves. A relieved smile appeared on her face, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders.

However, Xu Lingfeng became more alert to her reaction. He clearly felt that Ouyang Mengmian was hiding something, which made him even more curious about the so-called "friend" and wanted to find out more.

Neither Xu Lingfeng nor Ouyang Mengmian immediately lost interest in continuing their walk, and they both quickly walked towards the parking lot.
