Yun Qiqi didn’t expect that this man followed her for days and did nothing.
The first time he approached her was actually because of this.
She was slightly taken aback, but her little face quickly returned to its expressionless state.
Not very accepting of kindness from strangers, she spoke with a bit of awkwardness, "No need, don’t follow me."
As for him calling her Little Gua, Yun Qiqi pretended not to hear it.
She often heard him call her that these days, and she could vaguely feel that this handsome man seemed to mistake her for someone else.
So he might think she had forgotten him.
But she couldn’t possibly know him, so how could she remember?
Yan Yan couldn’t just keep watching her freeze outside. He had hurriedly touched her hand just now, and although it was only for a moment, that cold feeling still lingered at his fingertips.
Thinking about how she had been taking care of herself like this in the past two years he wasn’t around, his heart couldn’t help but ache.
No longer allowing her to mess around, he spoke with a bit of authority, "Get in the car, I’ll take you home."
Yun Qiqi glanced at him indifferently and turned to continue walking back by herself.
However, Yan Yan couldn’t possibly let her go on her own at a time like this.
Without hesitation, he ignored the thought of possibly scaring her, walked over, and without a word, picked her up from the ground, striding towards the car by the roadside.
Suddenly lifted into the air, Yun Qiqi was startled. Realizing he intended to force her into the car, her eyes revealed a chilling coldness, and she almost immediately wanted to make a move.
Yan Yan knew her skills but was afraid that her struggling might cause her to fall and hurt herself, so he instinctively held her icy and petite body even tighter.
He lowered his voice, coaxing her like he used to, "Little Gua, don’t make trouble."
The familiar tone, as if heard in a midnight dream, made Yun Qiqi’s eyelashes tremble slightly.
She was slightly taken aback, and the cold vigilance in her black eyes faded quickly, her little face flashed with a trace of confusion and helplessness.
She even forgot to struggle.
The driver, seeing the boss holding Miss Yun, knew what was going to happen and had already swiftly opened the door.
Yan Yan didn’t notice her unusual demeanor, focusing only on getting her into the car.
Seeing the car door open, he seamlessly put her into the back seat.
At the moment of release, he was even a little reluctant to let go of her fragrant, soft, and icy small body.
There was a moment he almost couldn’t resist, wanting to hold her on his lap like before.
But in the end, a sliver of reason held him back.
He bent over to fasten her seatbelt, and before she could explode, he reached out and gently ruffled her head.
"Be good, listen," he coaxed softly, his eyes tender, "I’m just giving you a ride, nothing else."
The young girl lowered her eyelashes, which trembled lightly, and she didn’t speak, her little face showing a bit of blankness.
Yan Yan thought she looked incredibly cute like this, and his heart melted completely, the earlier discomfort vanishing entirely.
Now he just wished he could lower his head and kiss her on the face several times.
His eyes darkened slightly, but he restrained himself, closed the car door, and walked around to the other side to get in.
The driver didn’t need to be told what to do and sensibly headed towards Yun Qiqi’s apartment.
This was the route driven every night these past few days, and he was familiar with it.
Just the speed, still the same slow pace as when following Yun Qiqi before.
