Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Li An’an had just returned to the banquet hall when she saw Chu Yichen coming in from outside. There were many people in the banquet hall. He saw her immediately and she hurried over to him.
“Saw a man that you couldn’t walk away from?” Chu Yichen’s voice was cold as he swept his gaze around the banquet hall. He didn’t see anything he didn’t want to see, so he left the banquet hall with Li An’an.
Li Xinyi happened to look back and saw a familiar side profile. She had a shock. What was wrong with her recently? She was so taken aback thinking that the woman she just saw was Li An’an.
“Lu Ming, shall I come to your place tonight?” Li Xinyi placed her hand in Lu Ming’s.
“Sure!” Lu Ming took a sip of wine and stared in the direction where Li An’an and Chu Yichen had left. He was distracted and his emotions were stirring.
Outside the hotel, Chu Yichen looked at the empty car and then stared at Li Cheng questioningly.
“It’s like this. The kid’s elder brother came to pick her up, so they went home.
Besides, I saw their mommy. She seems like a very kind middle-aged woman!”
Chu Yichen nodded and did not ask further. Li Cheng was his capable subordinate and he was very meticulous in performing his duties. The child would be fine!
Li An’an leaned against the side of the car, feeling a little confused. However, when she saw the few men hanging on the tree outside, she laughed out loud.
“Who’s being so ridiculous!”
The gloominess in her heart vanished. “Who did they offend to be in this sorry state?!”
Chu Yichen replied, “Me!” He glanced at her coldly. Right now, she looked worlds apart from her half-dead appearance at the banquet. No matter what, she simply could not pretend to be a lady!
Li An’an played with her hair awkwardly.
“Well done! That’s the way to treat such fawning people!”
Li An’an had attended banquets in the past. Although these people were only waiters, they were all very shrewd. They curry flavored with people of status and trampled on the others!
“Pfft!” Chu Yichen snorted.
Li Cheng chuckled in the front seat. Miss Li was really quick to adapt! Fortunately, she was not a man. Otherwise she could very well put him out of a job.
The car made its way slowly in the dark. Li An’an leaned back and squinted. She was actually upset, having seen Lu Ming again.
“This is my stop. Thank you for the ride.”
Li An’an couldn’t wait to get out of the car as they pulled up to the junction. The black luxury car came to a halt. Li An’an got out of the car and was about to say goodbye to Chu Yichen when she saw the man getting out of the car as well.
“I’m thirsty. I’d like to go to your house!”
His gaze swept across the old neighborhood. He paid her a high enough salary and she was living in such a place.
Li An’an was instantly nervous. Chu Yichen wanted to go to her home. If he did so, he’d get to see the three children. No way.
Chu Yichen noticed her nervousness and asked dangerously, “No? Or you don’t actually live around here?”
Li An’an felt a headache coming on. Cold sweat broke out across her forehead. She turned around and ran to the convenience store by the roadside to buy a bottle of water.
“Mr. Chu, my house is tiny, and I share it with a friend. How can I allow a noble person like you into my home and taint your nobility! ”
Chu Yichen did not buy it. She looked guilt-stricken. He lifted her chin with his slender fingers.
“What if I insist on going? Or are you hiding a man in your house!”
“No! It’s just that the house is in a mess! If you really wish to go, fine!” Li An’an tried to find a countermeasure. She would never bring Chu Yichen back.
“An’an, why aren’t you home yet? You’re dressed so prettily today. Your boyfriend?”
An auntie passed by and greeted Li An’an.
Li An’an looked at the auntie as if she was her savior. The auntie from their neighborhood had actually strolled all the way out here.
“Auntie Liu, I’m about to head home too. Let’s go together. Goodbye, Mr. Chu.” Li An’an hurriedly blended into the group of aunties. She didn’t believe that Chu Yichen would follow her in the presence of so many aunties!
Indeed, Chu Yichen did not follow. He was just testing her. So far, she had not given herself away.
“Back to the office!” Chu Yichen got into the car and lit a cigarette. He was determined to leave no stone unturned where this woman was concerned, she’d better not push his bottom line..
