The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife-Chapter 693 - Suddenly Wanting to Escape_1
Chapter 693: Chapter 693 Suddenly Wanting to Escape_1
She refuses to be the villain that hinders Qiao Ning’s happiness!
But just because she won’t do it, it doesn’t mean that others won’t do it too.
The moment Hai Xiaotang left, Qiao Ning received a call from Chai Xiyang.
Qiao Ning hung up without intending to answer, but Chai Xiyang called again.
It seemed like he would keep calling if she didn’t answer.
Qiao Ning coldly answered: “What is it?”
“Where are you?” Chai Xiyang responded with a question.
Ignoring his question, Qiao Ning said, “I’ve decided to move out. Unless there’s something important, don’t contact me. There’s nothing between us anymore. That’s it, I’m hanging up now!”
She ended the call without giving him a chance to respond.
She decided that even if he called again, she wouldn’t answer.
However, Chai Xiyang didn’t call again. Qiao Ning prepared herself and went to have dinner with Chen Shuinan.
Chen Shuinan had booked a nice restaurant and had already arrived when Qiao Ning got there.
Upon seeing Qiao Ning, he waved and even pulled out a chair for her when she came over.
“Thank you,” Qiao Ning smiled as she sat down.
“No problem.” Chen Shuinan sat down opposite her and immediately asked, “Why did you move again?”
Earlier on the phone, when Chen Shuinan said he would pick her up from the Chai family’s villa, Qiao Ning told him she’d already moved out and would come over herself.
“I felt Uncle Chai is doing okay, and I didn’t want to bother them, so I moved out.” Qiao Ning explained naturally.
Chen Shuinan nodded. He felt Qiao Ning was moving too frequently but didn’t think too much about it.
There was no point asking questions if she didn’t want to answer them.
“Let’s order,” he said, handing her the menu, then casually added, “Chai Xiyang will be joining us, too. Not sure why he called off the engagement party. Do you know why?”
“He’s coming here?!” Qiao Ning looked shocked.
Chen Shuinan nodded, “Yes, he called me asking if I was with you. I told him we are having dinner, and he said he has something to discuss with you, so he’ll be here soon.”
Suddenly, Qiao Ning’s face fell!
What is Chai Xiyang up to?
Hopefully, he wasn’t going to tell Chen Shuinan something bad…
Chen Shuinan immediately noticed something was off. His dark eyes flashed with concern: “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing, I…” Before she could make an excuse to leave, Qiao Ning saw Chai Xiyang entering the restaurant.
And Chai Xiyang noticed her at the same moment—
As their eyes met, Qiao Ning froze instantly!
For some reason, she had a great urge to disappear!

Chai Xiyang reached their table in a few brisk steps, his dangerously gleaming eyes directly met Qiao Ning’s as he asked with a smile, “Why are you purposefully ignoring my calls?”
Qiao Ning was startled, and tension immediately coursed through her!
Chen Shuinan also sensed something was off, he looked at Chai Xiyang coldly, “What do you want from Qiao Ning?”
Without any hesitation, Chai Xiyang carelessly sat down and said, “I came to ask her why she suddenly moved out. She wasn’t answering my calls either.”
Under Chen Shuinan’s suspicious gaze, Qiao Ning replied to Chai Xiyang indifferently, “I moved out because there’s no reason for me to stay. My mother has divorced from uncle, so I don’t want to bother him…”
Qiao Ning tried to skew the conversation towards their complicated family matters, fearing Chen Shuinan might read into something.
Chai Xiyang’s piercing gaze seemed to see right through her thoughts.
