The man walked downstairs, and Uncle Tao respectfully informed him that breakfast was ready.
Looking at the sumptuous breakfast on the table, he thought for a moment and said, "Pack it up for me, I’m taking it with me."
Carrying the packed breakfast, Tang Yuchen drove to An Ruo’s residence.
He didn’t quite understand why, but he just felt she should eat well; a pregnant woman eating well is good for the fetus too.
He arrived quickly at An Ruo’s place and pressed the doorbell, but no one answered.
Thinking she might still be asleep, he called her. But when the call connected, it went straight to voicemail.
Tang Yuchen frowned slightly, thinking he must warn her never to turn off her phone again.
After pressing the doorbell for a few more minutes with no response, he had no choice.
He took out a strangely shaped key, inserted it into the lock, and gently turned it, opening the door.
The house was eerily quiet, the man placed the breakfast on the table, and went to push open the door to An Ruo’s bedroom.
He had expected to see the woman still sleeping, but to his surprise, the room was empty, the bedding on the bed neatly folded; there was simply no one there.
Where could she have gone this early in the morning?
Tang Yuchen had a bad premonition. His eyes narrowed dangerously, emitting a cold light.
At this time, An Ruo was already on a plane flying toward City K.
An hour’s flight quickly passed, and after disembarking, she took a cab to the bus station, planning to take a bus out of City K.
As long as she didn’t use her identity card to register, Tang Yuchen wouldn’t be able to find her.
She had planned everything and was confident that no one would be able to find her.
The bus ride to City U would take six hours.
An Ruo had gotten up early in the morning and was busy rushing about. She sat on the bus for a while but was overtaken by drowsiness, so she leaned against the seat and fell into a deep sleep.
Awoken by hunger at noon, she ate some bread and milk, then continued to sleep.
Pregnant women are often sleepy, and she was no exception.
An Ruo slept soundly, almost unaware of anything.
The bus stopped halfway through the journey, and in a daze, she felt the person next to her leave and then return. She wanted to open her eyes, but she was too tired and fell back into sleep in a matter of seconds.
When she had slept enough, she naturally woke up.
She opened her blurry eyes to see the white shirt of a man, and her head was resting on his shoulder.
That wasn’t the worst part, the worst was that she seemed to have drooled, even dampening his shirt!
An Ruo’s face flushed red, and she sat up quickly, hurriedly apologizing, "Sorry, sorry! I didn’t mean to..."
As she lifted her gaze and saw the man’s face clearly, her words abruptly stuck in her throat, unable to come out.
Shocked at the familiar face in front of her, An Ruoxin wondered if she was still dreaming.
The man’s thin lips lifted slightly, his eyebrows arching as he smiled lightly, "What, don’t recognize me?"
Clasping her fists tightly, she pinched the palm of her hand with her nails. There was a sensation of pain; she was definitely not dreaming.
An Ruo’s face turned pale, her mouth slightly open, unable to utter a word.
Tang Yuchen... how had he appeared here?
The bus was still on the road, and at this moment, she must have been at least a thousand kilometers away from City J. How had he managed to catch up?
Even if he had wanted to find her, it couldn’t have been possible at such speed.
An Ruo came back to her senses and asked him coldly, "How did you find me?"
"I had people start monitoring you yesterday," the man said blandly, his deep eyes as dark as the abyss.
