Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 706

Chapter 706: Chapter 706: Could It Be Him?

The Qin Family Village was originally a village within the city, and the restaurant wasn’t far away, so the group walked over.

As they entered the main road of the city, Lin Chuxia was listening to Hou Xiaobao talking when a figure in the distance suddenly caught her attention.

"You guys go ahead," Lin Chuxia said, putting down this sentence and quickly dashed over.

However, that figure had entered an alley, and when Lin Chuxia chased over, there was no one there.

Lin Chuxia walked further inside, surrounded by residential houses, and further ahead there wasn’t a dead-end but a small market.

Just as she was hesitating whether to continue inside, Hou Xiaobao caught up with her.

"What’s wrong, Mr. Lin?"

Lin Chuxia saw that he had come alone. "Where are they?"

"Manager Wang took them to the restaurant first. Mr. Lin, is there something going on?" He glanced towards the end of the alley, then continued, "That’s West Street’s small market over there; they sell everything, and all kinds of people are there. Are you looking for something?"

Lin Chuxia had heard about this small market; before the economic reform and opening-up, the black market used to be here.

The alleyways here were crisscrossing, making it easier to escape when the inspectors came.

Later, when the market was opened, people openly went to the government-designated markets to sell things, but here it never calmed down. Some people would still trade things here that were inconvenient to sell openly.

She shook her head, "Nothing to look for, let’s go."

While saying this, she glanced again at the end of the alley.

Could it be him?

That glimpse earlier wasn’t clear, but she felt that figure looked a lot like Gu Peng.

Has he already arrived in An City?

Lin Chuxia thought it was possible since she had met Gu Peng in An City in her previous life.

Then she thought maybe she was mistaken. How could it be such a coincidence that she just wanted to find him, and he appeared in front of her?

Arriving at the restaurant, Lin Chuxia put those thoughts behind her.

She would be staying in An City for a while, so she’d have time to look for him later.

When she looked up, she saw those people looking at her nervously, especially the young ones, who didn’t even dare to sit. She smiled slightly.

She asked Qin Jianshe to help take care of the group, and she tried not to interfere.

Having a meal was meant to be relaxing and comfortable.

You could chat idly or even talk about work at the table, but it shouldn’t make people uncomfortable.

Hou Xiaobao clearly knew Lin Chuxia’s temperament and was the most at ease during the meal.

He would be the team leader of the motorcade in the future. These people were his subordinates, and he indeed needed to oversee the situation.

No work was mentioned at the table; it was all emotional exchanges.

After finishing lunch and on the way back, Hou Xiaobao was still not satisfied.

His dissatisfaction wasn’t towards others, but towards Lin Chuxia.

You see, Hou Xiaobao hadn’t seen Lin Chuxia in a while. Even his promotion to team leader was communicated to him by Lin Chuxia over the phone.
