"Who are you talking about?" I suspected that I had heard it wrong, so I confirmed again.

Harrison's laughter came from the other end of the phone. "I didn't mishear. I didn't have the chance to tell you yesterday. Abbie and I made an appointment to meet today."

"Why do we have to meet?" I felt a little uncomfortable and couldn't help asking.

If it were in the past, I wouldn't have asked Harrison about it, and I wouldn't have cared too much about his whereabouts. They were all adults, so if I didn't care too much, it would only be because of the other party's disgust. However, when it came to Abbie, I couldn't just ignore her.

Yesterday, I had a hard time at the company because of Abbie. Today, he said that he had made an appointment to meet Abbie. How could I feel comfortable?

On the other side of the phone, Harrison seemed to hear the unhappiness in my tone. He comforted me and said, "Even if we don't contact business in private, we still have contacts. Don't think too much." "I didn't think too much..." My tone of defense gradually became softer, and I didn't even believe what I said.

Then we talked for a while and Harrison hung up the phone. I heard someone saying, "Welcome." It seemed that we had arrived at the place.

After hanging up the phone, I sat on the sofa absent-mindedly. I was not in the mood to watch TV. I was thinking about what had happened during the meeting between Harrison and Abbie. Could it be that Abbie had arranged it on purpose? Would she want to have an old flame with Harrison? Would Harrison agree to her request?

However, after thinking about it, I felt that it was impossible for such a thing to happen to me. It was not impossible for it to happen to me. The main reason was that it was impossible for it to happen to Harrison, because I knew that he was not such a person.

But it didn't mean that I could rest assured. I had been restless all morning. Sometimes, I wanted to send Harrison a message to ask him if he wanted to come back for dinner in the evening, then I wanted to ask him how long he would be busy, and then I wanted to ask him where he would live in the evening. In short, I just thought about all kinds of excuses but didn't really send it.

My heart was struggling, but I felt that I couldn't make trouble for Harrison. I had no choice but to pick up the phone and call Sienna. The phone rang twice, and it was picked up by Sienna. Her voice sounded like she had just woken up.

"You're still sleeping at this time. Did you steal a cow last night?" I joked.

The other side of the phone was quiet for a while, and then Sienna's voice came slowly. "Today is the weekend, Big Sister. You should have a good rest during this time."

"It's enough to have a good rest." I smiled and said, "We haven't seen each other for a long time. Would you like to go out and have a rest?"

Sienna whispered on the phone and said to me discontentedly, "Don't think about it. I know you must have something to do with me. Otherwise, you wouldn't call me and let me out."

Although Sienna said so, she finally promised me to come out. But because the bar was closed during the day, we could only go to the nearest teahouse.

She learned from Sienna when she first went to the bar. She said that although the environment there was noisy, it could make people forget their worries and devoted themselves to playing. The reason why there was a relatively quiet and comfortable teahouse was that she liked drinking tea.

Half an hour after I arrived at the teahouse, Sienna walked in slowly. As soon as she sat down, she complained to me, "It's so hard for you to rest. Why don't you give me some time to sleep? Do you have such a friend?"

"It's already two o'clock in the afternoon. You tell me it's time for me to sleep?" I looked at her with a funny smile.

However, Sienna didn't care about what time it was. She insisted that she had disturbed her view of time. In the end, she agreed to treat her to a meal before the topic ended.

I took a small sip of tea helplessly and pretended to be sad. "I found a friend and had a good chat with him. I really doubt if you are my good sister."

"If you don't have a good sister like me, you must be a lonely person." Sienna smiled cunningly, and then changed the subject and asked, "What can I do for you today?"

"Why can't I just drink tea with you?" I looked at her with a frown and put down the cup in my hand.

Sienna paused when he was about to drink tea, and his eyes were full of confusion. "But this time, you didn't want me to come out. If you say nothing, I'll go home now."

After that, Sienna put down the cup in her hand and was ready to leave. I knew that she was deliberately teasing me, but I still stood up and stopped her. "Okay, okay, I'll tell you, okay?"

"That's more like it." Sienna sat on the sofa with satisfaction.

After Sienna made such a scene, the gathering between the two of us seemed to become lively. I also told Sienna everything that had happened yesterday. She was so angry that she wanted to interrupt and scold him several times, but I stopped her.

It didn't mean that I couldn't allow her to scold my relatives, but that it was meaningless. If swearing could solve the problem, everyone could scold as much as they wanted.

But obviously, Sienna couldn't understand what I was thinking. She waited for me to finish and then said, "They won't leave so easily. Maybe they heard that your house is going to be demolished, so they came here in a hurry."

"How is that possible?" she asked in disbelief.

"What's impossible? It's normal for people to die for money and birds to die for food. Besides, it hasn't been long since your cousin left. How could a normal person do this?"

Sienna continued to analyze, but every sentence was rejected in my heart because I felt that this idea was too unreliable.

"Don't keep silent. Just tell me what you think is going on." Seeing that I didn't speak for a long time, Sienna suddenly asked.

I thought for a moment and looked up at her seriously. "Hing Jiayi moved out of my house and shouldn't be home. Maybe she's still in a corner of Luo City. That's why my uncle and aunt took photos of her in person."

"How is it possible? Without your care and work, Ning Jiayi has no way to survive in this city." Sienna smiled and waved his hand, indicating that this idea did not exist at all.

In fact, I had my reasons for having such thoughts. When my uncle and aunt saw me yesterday, they did not mention anything about letting Ning Jiayi go home alone, nor did they blame me. This was too strange.

According to my understanding of them, Ning Jiayi would definitely blame me for returning home and losing her job. I would even be responsible for her current situation. That was why I was so determined not to let them enter the house.

While I was lost in thought, I suddenly felt a pain in my arm. When I looked up, I saw Sienna's hand on my arm. "What's wrong?"

"Look over there." Sienna deliberately lowered her voice to tell me.

Although I was confused, I still looked in the direction she indicated. As a result, I saw Ning Jiayi walk into the teahouse with a smile, thinking that she was walking beside the man.
