Mi Lu was indignant, "No wonder! I was wondering why he didn't ask me out yesterday. I thought he finally realized we needed a little more space. Turns out it wasn't that. It was because he was helping your husband with the proposal. I totally agree with that, but why couldn't they keep me in the loop? They should've brought me along! I could help, you know!"
"Elk, don't overthink it. Maybe Brother Haoxuan really had something to do! You need to know, he's the police chief, sometimes he has assignments to take care of. My mom was the same! Back then, my mom was a police captain and she was busy all the time. Brother Haoxuan surely has a ton of official business to handle." Luo Qingli didn't want the couple to have a falling out, so she tried to make excuses for Shen Haoxuan.
Though, she didn't quite believe her own words.
