"He’s not my friend at all, I don’t want such a friend," Brother Ye Qi and the friends were the ones she liked.
No matter whether she was a cat or human, they all treated her the same.
"Your boyfriend, though, how could he not cherish such a simple and pretty girl? He’ll regret it later."
"Don’t cry, little girl, Uncle will take you home. A boyfriend who doesn’t cherish you is no loss; go home, spend more time with your parents, study hard, get into a good university. He’ll be the one crying later."
As soon as she heard mention of home, Wen Xiao’ai felt even more like crying.
What if she couldn’t make it back home?
Jun Moyan frowned slightly listening to Wen Xiao’ai’s crying and the driver’s conversation, his hand on his lap tightening slightly, his eyes dark and inscrutable.
Wen Xiao’ai cried for more than ten minutes, and eventually, she dozed off while still crying.
It seemed she was so aggrieved that she occasionally sobbed even in her sleep.
The driver saw that Wen Xiao’ai was sleeping and closed the car window.
He shook his head and said, "These young people today, ah, they don’t know how to take care of themselves, get themselves into such states, and in the end, it’s their parents and family who worry." ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ NovelHub(.)net
"Young Master, did you hear where that young girl wanted to go? We’ve been following her for two hours," Qing Yi was almost dozing off.
"Holy City!" Jun Moyan replied faintly.
"Ah? Holy City? Could there really be a problem?" Qing Yi suddenly felt much more alert at this.
"I’ve said it, don’t judge a book by its cover," Qing Yi, who was driving, added.
"Is Xiaoguai really the one she took away?"
"Follow her and see," Qing Yi responded to his own statement, then turned to Jun Moyan, "Young Master, if she really is in cahoots with Ais, then it’s very likely related to the Baiming Sect. Should we notify Master Shangguan?"
"..." Jun Moyan did not respond.
His mind was somewhat muddled.
Because Xiaoguai was also someone he had brought back from a small forest in the Holy City.
And ever since Xiaoguai appeared, all sorts of strange incidents had begun to happen.
So, if she truly was Xiaoguai transformed, that mode of appearance and coincidence at that time also warranted deep thought...
At one in the afternoon, the driver thought about waking Wen Xiao’ai to see if she would like to finish lunch with him before continuing on their travel, but he changed his mind; what if waking her made her upset and she started crying again?
So, it was probably better to hurry and take her home.
The driver decided to skip lunch and focused on driving, arriving at Holy City at about six in the evening.
Upon reaching Holy City, he woke up Wen Xiao’ai.
Groggily, Wen Xiao’ai opened her eyes, rubbed them, yawned, and sat upright mumbling, "Jun Moyan, I want my bottle. I’m hungry."
"Little girl, we’re at Holy City now. Tell me your address, and I’ll take you there."
The driver’s words snapped Wen Xiao’ai fully awake and she hurriedly looked out the car window.
Only then did she realize that she had been taken away.
And she had already arrived at Holy City, away from Capital City, away from Wu Garden, away from Jun Moyan...
When Jun Moyan heard Wen Xiao’ai’s first words upon waking were, "Jun Moyan, I want my bottle, I’m hungry," he stiffened, his heart skipping a beat.
Even though her words were slurred, he understood her instantly.
She had slept for nearly four hours; the first reaction upon being woken was unlikely to be an act...
Unless she had been pretending to sleep the whole four hours.
"Little girl? Tell me your home address." Seeing that Wen Xiao’ai did not answer, the driver asked again.
