She ran away from him and was not to be offended by her sickly brother.

"Get off work so early?"

However, Meng Xia just glanced at him and returned to the room without even stopping.

"..."

Huo Xibai glanced at the still bright sky outside, and frowned slightly. If he could still understand that Meng Xia went out early in the morning and came back late in the evening to avoid him, since that day, Meng Xia suddenly stopped avoiding him, but also became more It puzzled him——

What really happened that night?How could Meng Xia suddenly become like this?

He stood at the door of the room and hesitated for a long time. Just as Huo Xibai was about to raise his hand to knock on the door, the door in front of him was already opened. He was so frightened that he quickly retracted his hand and became a little panicked for a moment.

Meng Xia was also startled by the man standing outside the door, then frowned and asked, "What are you doing standing here?"

"I...I was just going to ask you if you wanted to have dinner together?"

Huo Xibai quickly gave a reason. To be honest, he was even a little afraid of Meng Xia's reaction in the past two days.

"No, I've already eaten."

"Have you eaten? Didn't you just get off work?"

Meng Xia didn't bother to explain to him and said directly, "Do you have anything else to do? If not, please let me know. I have something else to do."

"You have something to do...you want to go out?"

Huo Xibai then noticed that she had washed her hair, changed her clothes, and was carrying a small white bag, obviously looking like she was about to go out.

He frowned subconsciously, "Where are you going so late?"

"I don't think I need to explain to you, do I?"

Meng Xia looked puzzled and looked down at her phone again, "Can you excuse me? I'm going to be late."

"You have an appointment with someone?"

Huo Xibai subconsciously grabbed her wrist and asked, "Who is it? Male or female?"

"..."

Meng Xia said nothing, only looking down at the wrist he grabbed.

The surroundings suddenly became quiet, and after a two-minute stalemate, Meng Xia suddenly uttered two words, "Let go."

Her voice was neither loud nor emotional, neither angry nor pleading.

However, just these two faint words made Huo Xibai hesitate for a moment, and he actually let go of his hand. Meng Xia also took the opportunity to close the door and leave directly past him.

Just as he walked to the door, he suddenly heard Huo Xibai's voice, "Meng Xia, what do you want?"

After a pause, the woman frowned and turned around, "It seems that you have been blocking me from just now to now, right? Why are you suddenly asking me what I want?"

With his Adam's apple rolling up and down, Huo Xibai clenched his palms and stared at her with his dark and deep eyes, "I really don't remember what happened that night, but if I said or did something that hurt you... …I apologize to you.”

The thin lips opened and closed, and the man's tone was rare and serious.

Meng Xia curled her lips and chuckled, "Apologise? Do you think everything can be covered up with a word of sorry?"

"of course not!"

Huo Xibai walked up to her in two steps, but stopped one meter away from her and did not dare to get closer. "I have never felt that a word of apology can overwhelm everything, whether it was that day or five years ago."

"That's why I rushed back from abroad. I want to apologize to you and make up for the mistakes I made in the past..."

"so what?"

Meng Xia looked up at him, with a hint of sarcasm on his lips, "So as long as you say sorry, I have to forgive you, right?"

"I didn't mean that..."

Huo Xibai subconsciously retorted, but was interrupted by Meng Xia softly, "In this case, my answer is not to forgive -"

"Never."
