But she only felt tired now.
Just thinking that she would be leaving here soon made her feel a little scared. Even her body felt weak.
Mo Han definitely would not keep in contact with her after she left. His life would probably become a little more relaxed, since he would no longer have to buy food for her and clean up the mess she made after she got into trouble.
Xia Qingyi remembered that when she had just arrived at Mo Han’s house, she had asked him why he had helped her.
How had he answered her at that time? He seemed to have said that he had merely resolved a problem for himself.
Xia Qingyi lay on the bed, and stared at the ceiling in the dark at one A.M, not sleepy at all.
She probably wouldn’t sleep again tonight, Xia Qingyi quietly thought.
The next morning, Xia Qingyi had just sat down at the table next to Mo Han to eat breakfast when her phone rang.
It was from an unknown number. But Xia Qingyi could guess who the caller was.
She picked it up. “Hello?”
“Nian Nian, I’m at your house downstairs.”
“Okay.”
“I’ll come and pick you up.”
“There’s no need to, I’m eating now, I’ll go down later myself,” Xia Qingyi’s movements when she ate her food were rather robotic.
“Nian Nian, I’ll take you back to F City to take a look today.”
Xia Qingyi stared at the bowl. “Okay.”
Han Liang still wanted to say more on the other end, but Xia Qingyi suddenly interrupted him. “If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up. We can continue talking later downstairs.”
After she hung up, Mo Han, who had heard everything, said, “How did he get your phone number?”
Xia Qingyi shrugged and absentmindedly jabbed at the food on the plate with her chopsticks. “How would I know, he’s probably looked for it, it’s not difficult to do so after all.”
“Why didn’t you tell him that I’ll go along with you later?”
“There’s no need to, I’ll just tell him directly when I go down later.”
The two of them continued to eat, but the atmosphere in the house was no longer the same as the past, as though something had changed, but Xia Qingyi was not sure exactly what had changed.
After they had finished their food, Xia Qingyi had changed and was bending down to put on her shoes at the door getting ready to go out with Mo Han, who was waiting outside, when she suddenly remembered that her phone battery was rather low. “Oh, I didn’t bring my portable charger, I’ll go back and get it.”
“How much battery do you still have left?” Mo Han asked.
Xia Qingyi looked at her phone. “56 percent.”
“You don’t have to bring it, we’ll return soon. You can charge it after we’ve come back,” Mo Han said.
Xia Qingyi suddenly felt worried after hearing what he said. Would she really return here afterwards?
“What are you thinking, let’s go, we’ll get to come back early if we leave early.”
Xia Qingyi glanced at Mo Han, put the phone back into her bag, followed Mo Han and left without her portable charger.
She wished that she could come back earlier.
When they reached downstairs, Han Liang was leaning against a car as he waited, and immediately broke into a welcoming smile when he saw Xia Qingyi. “You’re here.”
Xia Qingyi only nodded her head.
Mo Han said, “This is your car?”
“Yes, my own car is in F City. I felt that it was rather inconvenient after sending Nian Nian back yesterday, so I bought another car here.”
Mo Han smiled, though Xia Qingyi did not show any expression, and she opened the back door of the car and sat inside. Mo Han immediately reached out for the front door to the passenger seat.
“Nian Nian, come and sit at the passenger seat, I want to look at you more.”
Xia Qingyi eyed Han Liang standing outside and did not move. “I prefer to sit here.”
