"How could it be such a coincidence!?"
Tong Mo couldn’t help but slam the table.
She stared, frustrated, having walked a good two kilometers in the blazing heat, only to find that the other party wasn’t even home!
"I’m sorry, Miss Tong..." the security guard said helplessly, spreading his hands.
Tong Mo’s anger still wouldn’t subside.
At this moment, Mengmeng stood up, walked over to her, and said in a low voice, "Let’s go back for now, Tong Mo. There’s no use waiting here if they’re not home. The matter of calling off the engagement isn’t urgent, we still have a whole year."
"Exactly, I refuse to believe I can’t catch them at home," Tong Mo agreed, picking up her purse and walking out.
She had only walked a short distance when a handsome and striking man appeared on the third floor of the Li Family mansion.
Dressed in gray home wear, he held a porcelain cup, leisurely swirling the liquid inside, the Longjing tea forming ripples as he brought the cup to his thin lips and took a slight sip. Then, looking at the girl growing more distant, he murmured indifferently, "Interesting."
Daring to refuse a marriage with him, Li Family’s young master.
After taking another sip of tea, as if a thought struck him, he snapped his fingers toward someone behind him.
"Arrange a car for them to go down the mountain."
"Yes," the butler quickly went to arrange it.
On the other hand, Gu Zhihan sharply glanced towards the Li Family mansion behind and commented while looking, "Someone is watching us."
"Who’s watching us?" Luo Mengmeng and Tong Mo followed his gaze to look behind them, only to see neither person nor bird.
Tong Mo expressed her bewilderment with a spread of her hands: "Where is anyone here?"
"Exactly, hubby, are you so hot that you’re nearly heat-stricken? Why don’t you let me down and walk by yourself!" Mengmeng also spoke up, looking worriedly at the person beneath her.
"It’s nothing, I might be seeing things," Gu Zhihan said, not putting her down and continuing to walk forward.
"Aah, I also want someone to carry me!" Tong Mo watched the two being sickeningly sweet, feeling envious and resentful once again.
As she wailed, a luxurious car suddenly appeared, stopping right in front of them.
With its imposing manner, the sight was overwhelming!
Mengmeng and Tong Mo were flabbergasted, looking at the car and then at each other, swallowing nervously, "What’s going on here?"
"I have no idea...," Gu Zhihan answered.
But they soon found out.
The driver, clad in a suit and bowtie, wearing white gloves, stepped out respectfully and opened the door for them, "The road down the mountain is far, I’m here to give you all a lift."
"This seems to be the Li Family’s driver!" Luo Mengmeng observed keenly, noticing the "Li Family" embroidery on the suit of the man.
The driver nodded, "Yes, miss, I’m the Li Family’s driver. The butler sent me to take you all down the mountain."
Upon hearing this, Tong Mo promptly pulled Mengmeng and the others into the car, "Then let’s get in the car. We can’t pass up a ride that comes right to our doorstep."
Though it was just a ride down the mountain, the driver, fearing they wouldn’t be able to hail a ride at that hour, went ahead and drove them all the way home.
After getting back home, Tong Mo received Tong Nian’s mocking and jeering.
"Tong Mo, I truly didn’t expect you to be so shameless!" Tong Nian, wearing makeup too mature for her age and flipping her long hair, looked at her with disdain, "Last night, you made a scene in front of dad, saying you didn’t want to marry an old man, but today, you’re all eager to run over to their house! What a shameful wretch!"
