Ye Xi felt embarrassed to greet the neighbor and quickly slipped into the house.
Meanwhile, Lu Lingxiao greeted the neighbor with his usual calm composure before carrying his groceries inside.
No sooner had the door closed than Ye Xi complained, "The neighbor was there, why didn't you give me a heads up?"
Lu Lingxiao set down what he was carrying and replied with a good mood, "A beauty threw herself into my arms. I haven't enjoyed that enough, why would I remind you?"
Ye Xi's face turned even redder at his words.
A moment later, Ye Xi finally reacted, asking with some surprise, "Why have you come at this time? Didn't you say you were meeting a client this afternoon?"
Lu Lingxiao had started rolling up the sleeves of his shirt after taking off his suit jacket, "It was Jian Nian who called me. She said your cold seemed worse and she was in a hurry to get back to work, so she asked me to come take care of you."
Only then did Ye Xi understand.
