At once, An Nan felt a headache beyond measure and wished she could strangle a certain damn bastard.
She shot a warning glance at someone, and wore a pitiful expression for the certain young master.
Little did anyone know that Lin Mubai tonight was totally unmoved by her act, continuing to question, "Tell me, what exactly is going on?"
The man’s fierce expression directly intimidated An Nan, causing her to momentarily forget all reactions.
The next moment, amidst the surprise of everyone present, she pushed away the person in front of her and grabbed Little Jia You by his side, fleeing in panic.
While the pair ran, a conversation ensued: "An Nan, what is this? Are you fleeing from your crime?"
"You annoying kid, shut up."
"Is this not the reality?"
"Hmph, I was planning to go home and explain tonight; how was I supposed to know things would unfold this coincidentally."
Seeing his target run away, Jesse naturally dragged a suitcase and followed suit.
As for An Nan, when she saw Jesse climb into the taxi she had flagged down, she did not stop him.
She thought, despite the chaos this guy caused for her, given his hospitality during the past few days in France, she ought to extend some local hospitality.
And as the trio departed side by side, a gloomy expression flashed across Lin Mubai’s face.
"That damned woman actually ran."
He then chased after them, reaching the airport exit, merely seeing the taxi driving away, without a second thought, rushed towards the airport parking lot.
On route, Lin Mubai hurried home at the fastest speed, only to find the house empty, the expected people nowhere in sight.
Frustrated, he paced the living room, overwhelmed with anxiety: "Damn it, where the hell did they go?" What unnerved him most was the man who left with An Nan, a man with considerable allure.
Being a man himself, he couldn’t ignore the way that man looked at An Nan. Dıscover more novels at novel·fire·net
With a trace of interest and a hint of indulgence, if he guessed correctly, that man was still unclear about his feelings for An Nan, Or else he wouldn’t have just been watching the show with that expression earlier.
In such a prime moment, he should be presenting himself without ulterior motive, seizing the chance to win the beauty’s heart.
The more he thought about it, the more unsettled Lin Mubai felt.
He wasn’t sure how long he waited in the living room, but he never saw someone return home.
Meanwhile, An Nan was sitting inside another apartment in the same city; she was originally planning to head straight home when she hailed a taxi but changed the address midway, out of fear that man’s temper hadn’t subsided and she’d end up in an unfortunate situation.
If she guessed correctly, that individual was definitely at her home now.
Moreover, this apartment was larger than the one she lived in before, and could be considered one of her nests in the city; she simply never liked big houses, so she never came to live here, not expecting it to come in handy tonight.
As for why she brought Jesse directly home, it was just because of something he said halfway through: "An Nan, you can just drop me at a hotel."
"Huh, you didn’t book a room in advance?"
"Uh, forgot." Jesse didn’t lie about that part, he indeed forgot, too busy getting excited about coming to B City, China, that he forgot to arrange accommodation.
Knowing his forgetfulness partly involved her, An Nan spoke without thinking, "I have a spare room at home, just stay there, I’ve got some time over the next few days, I’ll take you out to explore B City."
