72 -72 Xiaobao’s mom, you have guests at home…
Ye Ning eventually agreed to Secretary Gao’s proposal and got into his car.
Actually, her previous refusal was not for any other reason but because she had too many secrets.
She didn’t want anyone to know, nor could anyone find out.
That’s why she resisted Secretary Gao’s offer to drive her home, to learn where she lived and understand her surroundings.
But later, after he said what he did, her concern for the child ultimately prevailed, and she got into his car.
It was just a rented place, so probably nothing much could be discovered.
After they both got into the car, Secretary Gao first stopped at a mall for her to buy a new set of clothes to change into, while he went to a nearby pharmacy to buy some medicine.
Then they drove off towards the suburban area Ye Ning had mentioned.
“Why do you live so far away?
That’s the suburbs.” Once in the car, upon hearing the place she named, Secretary Gao showed a very surprised expression, just as she had expected.
Ye Ning turned to look out the window and said the words she had prepared in advance, “I have no choice.
The rent is cheaper in the suburbs, and I’m currently raising a child on my own.
The pressure is immense.”
Secretary Gao frowned but remained silent…
Indeed, it was a problem.
For a woman without a husband, raising a child was truly difficult.
Any initial dissatisfaction in Secretary Gao’s heart had completely disappeared, and he didn’t say anything more.
He just floored the gas pedal and sped toward the remote suburban area, all to get her home quicker and to see that child.
That child, chubby and pink, he actually liked him quite a bit.
Twenty minutes later, Ye Ning saw the outline of the village from the car window and immediately pointed to an intersection ahead, “Okay, you can drop me off here.”
Secretary Gao took a careful look: “There?
I’ll drive you further in.”
The roads inside are very narrow, and your car simply can’t fit.
It’s fine, once I get here, a five-minute walk is all it takes to reach home.”
“Really!” Ye Ning sensed his concern and felt a bit guilty, so her tone became much softer.
Seeing this, Secretary Gao had no choice but to stop the car there.
However, upon noticing that the road had not a single streetlight, he turned on the car’s headlights to light up the slender figure as she walked down the alley.
Only after she was out of sight, did he turn off the lights and drove away.
Living so far away, and in such cramped conditions, should he apply to Third Young Master for her?
Maybe get her a single occupancy dorm?
At least that would be safer!
As Secretary Gao drove back, this thought suddenly popped into his head…
Meanwhile, Ye Ning had come out of that alley shortly after he left, and turned around to walk toward the main road where the car had been parked.
The place she lived was actually just a little away from this road.
She had said what she did deliberately to prevent him from finding out.
However, when she groped her way in the dark to the residential building where she lived, she found a white sedan parked on the open ground in front of the building.
On closer inspection, she discovered it was an Audi with the license plate “ZS799.”
“Xiaobao’s mom, you’re finally back?
You have a visitor at your home today.” As she looked, the coarse voice of the landlady suddenly came from behind her.
Upon hearing this, Ye Ning turned around to ask, “Really?
