It made her suddenly raise her head in the next moment, her shocked eyes unexpectedly meeting a pair of clear, dark eyes in mid-air, even her voice carried a slight tremble: "Lin Mubai, why are you here?"
Wasn’t she always calling me Little White?
Lin Mubai’s eyes, originally cold and indifferent, suddenly turned stern, even his body was gradually enveloped by a chill. He didn’t spare a glance at the man half-kneeling on the ground, his gaze coldly fixed on the woman in front of him, his tone filled with cold questioning: "You told me to wait for you at home, but why are you here?"
This single sentence stirred up waves.
Zhan Qiyi, who had already stood up from the ground, looked at the two before him with shocked, pained eyes,
His eyes full of disbelief, his heart equally complicated, constantly telling himself not to overthink, yet unable to control his chaotic thoughts, he kept wondering what exactly was the relationship between these two.
He opened his mouth slightly several times, but swallowed his words back down. He realized he had no standing to question. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the novel✶fire.net
A sour feeling surged up in his heart for a moment, his eyes unable to hide the disappointment. Was he still one step too late?
An Nan sat in the chair, rendered speechless by the questioning. She had indeed planned to go home after dinner, how was she to know it would be such a coincidence that he was also here.
As she was contemplating how to explain, the man in front of her turned and left, catching her off guard. Without thinking, An Nan stood up and chased after him, completely forgetting Zhan Qiyi standing beside her.
Chasing all the way to the parking lot outside the ’Champs Elysees’, An Nan successfully grabbed the corner of someone’s clothes in the parking lot: "Slow down, I can’t keep up with you." An Nan spoke, gasping for breath.
Yet the man in front of her remained silent, glaring coldly at her.
An Nan was utterly bewildered by the glare, and as her breathing slowly calmed down, she opened her mouth to slowly explain: "I just got off the plane, Qi Yi happened to invite me out saying he had something, I agreed since I had time."
An Nan’s explanation did not change this man’s icy face, Lin Mubai’s face remained tense and silent.
"What’s wrong with you after all?" An Nan’s patience was also wearing thin, she couldn’t quite understand why this little man was so bewildering.
Lin Mubai continued to glare at the woman in front of him for a moment, eventually saying nothing more than, "Go home." As he finished, he decisively got into the car. An Nan followed behind, though filled with anger, she still got into the car. On the way back, neither of them spoke first, even reaching the apartment complex and entering the elevator, the two still hadn’t exchanged a word.
Until a clear door-closing sound came from behind An Nan, she slowly felt a wave of pressure approaching her, a sense of crisis surged in her heart, her eyes stared fixedly at the person in front of her. There was a hint of panic in her voice: "You... you... what’s wrong with you?"
Lin Mubai still said nothing, his steps undeterred, moving one step at a time towards An Nan. When their toes intimately touched, he finally stopped. An Nan found such a distance very uncomfortable and tried to retreat, but the other party gave her no chance. Stretching out his long arms, An Nan was already in his embrace, and the more she struggled, the tighter Lin Mubai’s arms held her.
