Chapter 257 - 251: Work Inspection Part 2
Until the afternoon, Iro had not returned, but Lu Anna came back at eight o’clock, obviously carrying big and small packages from home.
Since Anna and Qin Zhen got engaged, their relationship had improved, but they didn’t go out of their way to get close to each other.
After all, the dormitory still had Iro. Anna had been friends with Iro since they were little, especially since Iro’s father worked under Anna’s father, so she deliberately avoided suspicion and rarely went out with Anna alone, usually in a group of three, or else she acted independently. This way, the relationships among the three remained good and didn’t suffer from subtle changes.
Li Xianglu watched the ever-consistent Anna and asked with a smile, "How come you two split up? Don’t you usually stick together like glue?"
Anna put down the things in her hands and sat on Iro’s bed, replying helplessly, "This guy insisted on leaving early, said there was something going on. I had stuff to do at home and couldn’t leave early, so I came alone in the afternoon."
Li Xianglu was peeling fruit, liking to peel the skin off the melons first, then cut them in half and share them, making them easier to eat. Hearing Anna’s words, she asked nonchalantly, "Then do you know what she’s been up to lately?"
Anna shook her head, stood up, and took a bite of melon with a fork before saying, "I don’t know, she just said there was something. Why? Is something wrong?"
Li Xianglu shook her head and said, "Today Wang Ke said that Iro has been coming early for three or four weeks in a row, and this week she even brought a lunchbox and never came back. Just look at the skirt hanging on her wall, that white one. Since when did she fall for white skirts?"
Hearing Li Xianglu’s analysis, Anna also began to feel that something was off, and suddenly widened her eyes with surprise, "She couldn’t be in a love relationship, could she?"
Li Xianglu frowned, she had thought of that possibility, but they were supposed to tell each other everything. Even if she was in a relationship, there was no need to hide it, right?
