Gu Annan had made a phone call to have a car sent over.
Lu Wanwan leaned against the iron railing, her shoulder still enclosed within his arm, her hand still held tightly by him.
While he was on the phone, she could only look towards the distance, observing where the starry sky met the mountains.
In fact, Xigang was beautiful, apart from the city center, there were scarcely any tall buildings.
A city free from industrial pollution, the sky was the purest.
Gu Annan had sent out his location, "A car will be here to pick us up soon."
When he looked at his phone again, he checked his messages and noticed that there was still no reply from Little Momo.
Little Youyou always responded enthusiastically to messages. Although Little Momo had initially been deliberately distant and blameful towards him, he could feel his gradual change and he never failed to reply when he had doubts.
What were both of them doing?
They definitely weren’t asleep at this time.
Gu Annan felt a surge of unease, after all, they were only five years old. He had asked Mu Xing to keep an eye on them, but to avoid them feeling surveilled, she wasn’t supposed to follow them closely.
Moreover, since Lu Wanwan had left the children at home, naturally she was assured, and he hadn’t made any extra arrangements.
"What’s the matter?" Lu Wanwan, seeing the sternness in his eyes, started to get nervous, "Has something happened?"
Like the incident where Wei Cheng was beaten up earlier.
Although she had instructed him not to speak about it, the man had acted crazily just now. Maybe he had revealed everything to the reporters.
"It’s nothing," Gu Annan replied quietly and sent another message to Mu Xing urging her to respond quickly.
"You’re lying, your expression says otherwise. Let me see!"
The more he behaved , the more Lu Wanwan felt that the incident had surely been exposed by reporters.
Gu Annan, who was always calm and rational, should have let someone else do the fighting, avoiding involving himself in such a scandalous brawl.
Seeing her about to snatch his phone, he quickly slipped the mobile into his pocket.
"Want to see my phone?" His lips curved into a smile, and as he put the phone away, his other hand pulled her even closer, "Looking to check if I’ve been involved with other women?"
Lu Wanwan replied irritably, "I’m worried about the incident just now, I’m afraid the reporters will write nonsense."
"They’ll be writing about me. What are you afraid of?" He looked at this woman who was always worried about trivial matters.
Even if it really did tarnish his image a bit, it was just a fight.
It wasn’t something that couldn’t be forgiven by society, nor a catastrophic event for the company, he hardly cared about such things.
However, being the object of her concern was indescribably touching.
"That’s true," Lu Wanwan said coldly, "What they write about you, why should it bother me at all!"
"It can’t be put like that, because if Wei wants to reveal everything, he definitely will," Gu Annan heard a hint of deliberate annoyance, "So if they write, they’ll definitely also mention that I beat him to a pulp because of you."
The slight displeasure Lu Wanwan had felt dissipated somewhat when she heard it was because of her.
"Actually, you didn’t need to intervene," she changed her tone slightly, "He was already too frightened to ."
"Not intervene? I haven’t had my fill of hitting!"
Just hearing these words, Lu Wanwan felt that his childish impulsivity in this situation was even greater.
But looking into his eyes and seeing the intense fierceness, she knew he was serious.
