Ning Wan did not expect Xi Mohan to answer so resolutely. Recently, this man kept appearing in her world from time to time, as if she could not shake him off.
Especially during the time she was hospitalized, this man constantly stayed by her side, which puzzled her even more. It made her wonder if Xi Mohan had taken the wrong medication.
He used to despise her, wishing her to stay far away from him, but during her hospital stay, he was there every day. Unless there was something extremely important, he practically moved his work into her hospital room.
Ning Wan felt that either this man had water in his brain or had taken the wrong medication, or he had gone mad!
Her expression narrowed slightly as she looked at the man in front of her and said, "But what should I do? I don’t want to see you right now and even less so for you to keep appearing by my side." ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ NovelHub(.)net
His expression unchanged, the only thing that tightened was the hand holding the car keys at his side. It took a while before he spoke, "There are no taxis that pass by here, it would be very difficult to get a ride out."
"I can ask Qiaoqiao to have their family’s driver take me to the city center."
The man’s thin lips pressed together, as expressionless as ever, but he let out a sigh, his voice carrying a hint of warmth, "Wanwan, you don’t need to guard against me . If I had wanted to do anything to you, I would have done it during your time at the hospital, no need to wait until now."
Hearing Xi Mohan’s words, Ning Wan was suddenly at a loss for words, finding herself without a retort.
Knowing she had softened somewhat, the man did not press her further but still said directly, "Let’s go, I’ll take you there first, and whatever you want to do, I won’t interfere."
Ning Wan, with a somewhat peculiar look in her eyes, watched the man who had already turned and started walking out of the villa. She squinted her eyes slightly, but then looking at the time, she realized that she had wasted quite a bit of time here. Qiaoqiao had been taken upstairs by Lu Jingchen, and who knew if the couple was up to something bad, making it seemingly impossible for her to talk to Qiaoqiao now.
Since it’s a villa area, and every household has a car, there would be no cars here unless someone had called for one.
She had come here by taxi earlier, because she didn’t know how long she would stay, she let the driver leave. Now, if she didn’t get a ride from Qiaoqiao’s family driver, she indeed had to walk.
With little choice, Ning Wan picked up her purse and walked towards Xi Mohan’s car in her high heels.
Within the General Manager’s office of Ning Group, Ning Yan’er sat on the boss’s chair with an ugly, even menacing expression. Holding the photos that someone had just brought to her, she became so angry that she swept all the cups and other items from the desk onto the floor.
The sound of cups and other objects falling to the ground caused the people in the secretary’s office outside to look at each other in dismay. Everyone quickly dispersed to their duties, fearing they might provoke trouble.
But because everyone was busy with their own tasks, when Ning Wan came up, no one stopped her, nor did anyone inform Ning Yan’er... that she had come with Xi Mohan.
Ning Wan was not visiting this place for the first time. Many years ago, when her parents were still working for Ning Group, she would often come to the company to see her father, so many of the long-serving employees there recognized her. Just now, when she came up, she even encountered several company executives who had been kind to her before.
A few steps away from Ning Yan’er’s office, Ning Wan stopped and turned back to look coldly at the man following behind her, her tone mocking as she said, "Mr. Xi, are you sure you want to go in with me?"
Xi Mohan’s gaze grew heavy, clearly dissatisfied with Ning Wan’s address, but he did not say much more. He spoke directly, "I haven’t seen Yan’er in a long time. It wouldn’t be bad to come up and see her."
Ning Wan said no more. Since he had spoken like that, she certainly couldn’t stop him, especially since she was not the one who owned the road.
She turned and walked straight to the door, without hesitation or knocking, twisting open the door directly. When she saw the mess inside, she stopped short and then sneered, addressing the grim-faced Ning Yan’er with a laugh, "Eldest Lady Ning, long time no see."
