Mind full of thanks haven't had chance to speak, even breath haven't had time to catch.
The moment I surfaced.
I saw Xavier Vance's cloud-light wind-light face.
Heart fiercely twitched.
How could it be him?
I subconsciously grabbed a bath towel from the side and buckled it on my head.
Xavier just stood in the water like that, didn't move.
He stared at my two exposed eyes for several seconds, then asked:
"Need to call police?"
I hurriedly shook my head like a rattle drum.
"Wait for people outside to leave, I'll have someone send you out."
No other way.
I nodded while climbing up the pool edge embarrassedly.
After getting ashore, didn't forget to bow properly to Xavier to express thanks.
But he directly treated me as air, dived into water and swam two laps again.
Sitting on the chair by the pool, I couldn't help secretly rejoicing.
Good thing the light is dim.
Good thing he didn't have much impression of me originally.
Just carefully wiping the SD card, Xavier's phone on the table aside rang.
I glanced at the screen from inside the tightly covered bath towel.
Only one word on it.
"Chloe."
Phone rang fully three times, Xavier then slowly walked ashore, directly pressed speaker.
My eyes for a time didn't know where to put, but ears still subconsciously pricked up.
"Xavier, my birthday party in a few days, you must come."
"All old classmates, lively together."
Night wind blew a bit cold, I could only curl up body to cover myself tighter.
Chatted for four or five minutes, but mostly Chloe talking herself.
Before hanging up, she didn't forget to add gently.
"I also haven't seen you for a long time."
When my thoughts drifted far away, hotel waiter pushed dining cart and sent many foods.
Xavier pushed a plate of exquisite dim sum to me.
I hurriedly waved hand, pressing voice pretending polite said:
"You are too polite. But thanks, no need."
Xavier looked at me, then looked down at the dining plate.
"Didn't you like eating these when you were little?"
"..."
