Su Xiaomeng kept her head down, following Yin Shixiu, the urge to turn around and run away still very strong.
Just as they walked out of the hospital doors, a gust of wind and snow hit them, Su Xiaomeng accidentally inhaled a breath of cold air and immediately couldn’t stop coughing.
Yin Shixiu reached out with his big hand and pulled the little girl into his arms to shield her, but even after getting in the car, Su Xiaomeng kept on coughing.
"Why is your illness so severe?"
Su Xiaomeng sniffled and said nothing.
Seeing that she didn’t want to talk, Yin Shixiu just pursed his lips. It was snowing heavily outside, and the sky had quickly turned dark.
The traffic broadcast reported highway restrictions, and Yin Shixiu switched to surface roads. The car was already moving slowly, but then they ran into a traffic accident, making the road completely blocked.
Initially hoping to get to school quickly and then say goodbye to the uncle, Su Xiaomeng was now sitting on pins and needles!
The traffic seemed to be frozen on the road, not moving an inch!
Su Xiaomeng glanced at Yin Shixiu, "Uncle, just let me off here. I’ll take the subway, the subway doesn’t get stuck."
"Are you in a hurry?"
"Isn’t my cold not getting better? Such a small space, I’m afraid of infecting you, and I also need to rest early... who knows how long we’ll be stuck for."
As Su Xiaomeng said this, Yin Shixiu glanced at her and suddenly turned on the indicator and made a U-turn.
"Uncle?"
"To my place."
Su Xiaomeng looked at Yin Shixiu, her expression a bit dazed.
Could this be the true adult world? Even if two people have had a relationship, they can pretend as if nothing happened, no matter how unrelated they were initially.
"Stop the car, I’m not going."
Su Xiaomeng pulled on the door lock, speaking firmly. Yin Shixiu was like an ancient demon, thick-skinned and unabashed, but she couldn’t do it!
Yin Shixiu glanced at her, "Didn’t you say you wanted to rest early? Who knows how long it’ll take to get back to school, you’re familiar with my place, didn’t you often go with Meng Meng before?"
"Back then I didn’t know——" you were a beast!
The words were swallowed back down.
"Didn’t know what?"
"Didn’t know you... would come back."
"In the end, you’re still afraid of me."
"I—I’m not afraid..." Su Xiaomeng cared about her pride, but those two words "not afraid" lacked confidence.
"I know what you’re worried about..." Yin Shixiu’s thin lips curled slightly, he looked at her, "Actually... you’re not really to my taste either. So rest assured, I won’t eat you."
What did that mean?
Su Xiaomeng, for the first time in her life, met someone so shameless!
He won’t eat her? Was it a pig that ate her back then? Getting an advantage and still acting like a big shot!
"I’m not going! I said I’m not going and that’s final! If you don’t stop the car, I’ll jump out!"
Su Xiaomeng had already unbuckled her seatbelt.
Yin Shixiu didn’t take it too seriously, once the car door was shut, it locked automatically, unless she could dismantle the car door, otherwise, there was no way to open it.
However, when a gust of cold wind and snow rushed in from his right, Yin Shixiu was truly shocked!
The passenger side door wasn’t locked!
Yin Shixiu grabbed Su Xiaomeng’s arm, scolding sternly, "Don’t make trouble! Close the door!"
Su Xiaomeng hadn’t expected she could actually open the car door. After a moment of stunned hesitation, she really thought of jumping out, but before she could act, she was already grabbed!
Driving on a snowy night was not safe to begin with, and with Su Xiaomeng causing trouble, Yin Shixiu had no choice but to quickly pull over to the side of the road.
