The third block is the most inhospitable place in the entire Winter City.

Here, garbage is everywhere, and the whole area emits a foul smell, like a stinky ditch. Only poor people or those with special status would choose to live in such a terrible place.

Xie Qingxue's visit today is obviously not for the former.

Walking through the street full of the unpleasant smell of garbage, Xie Qingxue arrived at a staircase that was old and rusty.

Xie Qingxue lifted her leg to climb the stairs, but the next second, the stairs made a creaking sound under the weight, making her worry if it could continue to support her.

Fortunately, Xie Qingxue had been to this place many times before, and she was not worried about this problem. Without hesitation, she continued to climb up.

The distance of the stairs was not long. After a while, the outline of the building appeared in front of Xie Qingxue's eyes. She was about to knock on the door, but before her fingertips could touch it, the door was opened from the inside by someone.

In front of Xie Qingxue appeared a young man with slightly curly black hair. The young man had a delicate appearance, and a pair of wet round eyes always reminded Xie Qingxue of a puppy in a pet store that wagged its tail when it saw people.

"You're here!"

As soon as he saw Xie Qingxue, the young man's eyes lit up, becoming even more similar to the puppy in the pet store. 

Xie Qingxue opened her mouth to say something, but before she could, the young man cleared his throat.

Perhaps feeling that he was being too unreserved, the young man suddenly changed his tone and said, "N-no, wait, what are you here for?"

"Go away, go away, I don't welcome you here. "

Under the young man's fierce gaze, Xie Qingxue extended her right hand and handed him the bag she was carrying. "A gift."

As Xie Qingxue made her move, the sweet aroma of cake wafted over, and the young man's intentionally fierce expression faltered for a moment. He looked up at Xie Qingxue like a small animal, then at the bag she was carrying, hesitated for a moment, and ultimately couldn't resist the temptation of food. He eagerly took the bag from Xie Qingxue's hand.

Under Xie Qingxue's teasing gaze, the young man seemed to feel that he couldn't save face. After taking the bag, he quickly glared at Xie Qingxue and said, "D-don't think that I forgive you just because of this. "

"Okay, okay, okay. "

Xie Qingxue was perfunctory like coaxing a child.

The young man was unaware and lifted his chin, humming lightly, "It's good that you know. "

Xie Qingxue raised her eyes and said, "Then, Lord Lu Yan, can you let me in now? It's cold outside. "

"Come in. "

Lu Yan reluctantly turned his body aside, and Xie Qingxue took the opportunity to walk into the room.

The interior of the room was not as dilapidated as the outside of the house. Everything here was neatly arranged by Lu Yan, with white curtains, a vase placed on the windowsill, and a hand-woven long carpet on the sofa. All the decorations exuded a simple and warm atmosphere.

Except for the slightly smaller floor space of the room, everything else was perfect. If you didn't know, you would think this was a high-end residential area.

Xie Qingxue's gaze swept around the room and finally settled on a pile of documents on the table.

"Do you want something to drink?"
