Chapter 73: Confrontation

She approached where Luo Xiao was seated and inquired, \"Mr. Luo, are you available now? I have a few words I\''d like to discuss with you.\"

她一个人走到了罗肖坐着的地方说道：“罗总，请问你现在方便吗？我有几句话想和你说。”

\"Is this about work or personal matters?\" he asked.

他问道：“请问是公事还是私事？”

\"Personal!\" she replied.

她答道:“私事！”

\"Well, I\''m sorry, Miss Bai, but I don\''t have time for personal matters right now.\"

“如果是私事的话，那不好意思，白小姐，我现在没有时间。”

\"In that case, I won\''t bother you. We can talk next time when you\''re available.\"

白灵从竞标场中出来，并没有直接回公司的办公室，也没有回公司宿舍。

Instead, she took a bus to her University, or rather, the place where she used to live.

她坐了公交来到了A大，不，是直接来到了她曾经住过的地方。

It had been over three years since her last visit, but nothing had changed.

三年多不曾来过这里了，这里并没有什么变化，依然是自己熟悉的模样。

The familiar scene she remembered remained the same. She found the landlord and learned that Luo Xiao still lived in room 501. So, she went straight to the door of 501 and waited.

她找到了房东，打听到了罗肖依然住在501，于是她径直走到501的门前等待。

Convinced that Luo Xiao didn\''t want to see her, she decided to settle their score decisively. She had to make a clean break.

Bai Ling then walked to the other side of the hallway, hid
