"That was a close call," Mo Ran exhaled.
Gu Yixuan looked at her, his eyes no longer sharp, "Remember to be more careful when crossing the street in the future, okay?"
"Yeah, I’ll be cautious. I just didn’t expect them to suddenly rush out like that," Mo Ran thought it was an accident.
But Gu Yixuan didn’t think so; he could tell they had been targeted. Follow current novels on N0veI.Fiɾe.net
Someone wanted to deal with him, but apparently, they didn’t intend to really harm them—just to teach them a lesson.
It seemed she had found out he was hiding here. This place was no longer safe.
"Ranran, let’s go back. We’ve been out for a while," Gu Yixuan said.
Mo Ran was stunned for a moment. She understood that going back meant returning to the villa in Banshan Garden. She had grown fond of the quiet life here and suddenly didn’t want to leave.
But she couldn’t stay here forever, and Gu Yixuan wouldn’t allow her to be here alone.
"Okay," she managed a reluctant smile.
She had been dreaming for almost a month, and now it was time to wake up.
Back at the Banshan Garden villa, the housekeeper had already cleaned everything up, just waiting for their return.
"Miss Mo, you look really well," the housekeeper said with a smile.
"Yes, you must have been doing really well recently."
It had been good, but she wouldn’t dwell on those days.
"Housekeeper, have you been well?" Mo Ran asked with a smile in return.
"Of course, I have. The master gave me such a long vacation, I was about to die of boredom at home." Having served her whole life, she was not used to being idle suddenly.
Mo Ran understood and smiled before heading upstairs.
Back in her familiar room, she felt a bit heavy-hearted. She had just returned from the seaside and already wanted to go back. The Gu Yixuan by the sea had felt so different; she wondered if he could continue being like that.
The phone rang; it was Gu Yixuan. He had only dropped her off before driving away, saying he had to deal with things at the company.
It made sense; after idly being with her for so long, there must have been a mountain of company matters waiting for him.
Mo Ran answered the call, "What’s up?"
"I won’t be back for dinner tonight, so don’t wait for me. There’s a lot to do at the company; I’m probably going to be late tomorrow too," he instructed.
Mo Ran nodded, "Okay, got it."
