"You're suspecting I have a man hidden in the house, right?" Before Zhou Mingchen could finish, Xia Lu countered, "What are you even thinking?" This time, she was genuinely annoyed, unable to fathom what was going on in his mind, completely unlike a normal person.
Caught by her words, Zhou Mingchen couldn't refute, as his actions were indeed solid evidence.
"Then why did you lock the door?" He handed her the phone, "Your phone was left on the sofa, obviously because you rushed upstairs."
Xia Lu was infuriated, snatching the phone, and said angrily, "Zhou Xinyao was here, I was afraid she'd see me and discover the fact that the child is gone."
Zhou Mingchen was completely unprepared for the fact that she locked the door because of this; it didn't make any sense. Although he hadn't notified anyone else, Xia Lu shouldn't have known.
