Perhaps it wasn't meant to be hers after all
handsome figure appeared at the party, he instantly drew all eyes to him. 。His cold features, a height and figure comparable to a model's, exuded an aura of formidable power that kept others at bay. 。...Throughout the journey, Ye Xiao was preoccupied with his official duties, keeping his head bowed and barely acknowledging the girl's presence. The girl tried several times to express her gratitude but hesitated, seeing that Ye Xiao seemed indifferent to her. In the end, she swallowed her words silently.
She turned to the car window, closing it. The faint reflection of the night owl's stern profile was visible on the glass. She stared at him, her heart pounding as she silently sketched his rugged features in her mind.
She nervously closed her eyes, not daring to think.
What qualifications did she have to like him She didn't even know who she was, let alone that he didn't like her at all. His eyes when he looked at her were cold and distant.
It seems that only when he picks up a photo of his girlfriend does his gaze soften a few points, revealing a different kind of tenderness.
The girl felt a little discouraged, but also a hint of unwillingness.
She raised her hand, looking at the glass reflection of herself, touching her delicate face. How much longer could she imagine being with her girlfriend
However, she has a bigger advantage, as she is a bit younger.
Also, his girlfriend has disappeared and he can't find her anywhere.
A mischievous thought crept into her mind. What if she kept losing things Would he start looking at her more Would he even forget about his girlfriend
The girl was in a mess, thinking about how bad she felt. For her own selfish desires, she had destroyed their relationship. How could she enjoy herself with such guilt
In the end, she let out a soft sigh. Such an outstanding man, perhaps he was never meant to be hers after all.
With her eyes closed, the girl lay still, pretending to sleep and suppressing the budding flutter in her heart.
The carriage was silent, save for the sound of fingers tapping on keyboards.
"Zero zero zero." A sudden phone ringing broke the silence.
The night owl stopped the graceful dance of his long fingers on the keyboard and raised his hand to press the Bluetooth earpiece hanging from his ear.
The bodyguard's voice reached his ears, "Young Master Ye, the villa has been quiet since Young Master Mu left last night. A doctor left this morning, and we've followed him back but found nothing unusual."
The night owl coldly replied with four words, "Continue to lurk."
"Yes."
After hanging up that call, the phone rang again. Ye Xiao continued to answer.
"Young Master Ye, Mu Shaochen arranged a car to drive around the villa."
Ye Xiao furrowed his sword brows. Mu Shaochen arranged a car to circle the villa, was this to confuse their pursuers
Unable to guess Mu Shaocheng's thoughts, Ye Xiao directly arranged, "Continue following."
No matter what Mu Shaocheng wants to do, as long as his people are watching him, he won't be able to do it!
After giving his orders, he continued to lower his head and deal with the work at hand, completely ignoring the girl beside him who pretended to be asleep.
The sound of keyboard tapping resumed inside the carriage.
The vehicle traveled along the way, from the dense forest to the plain, from the plain to the low houses, and from the low houses, high-rise buildings could be faintly seen.
They are about to enter the city, getting closer to the address Gu Liechen gave them.
When the car arrived at a department store, Ye Xiao ordered the driver to pull over. He lowered his head and dealt with business coldly, saying, "Go get some daily necessities."
The girl opened her eyes in confusion, unexpectedly turning to him. After a while, she stammered, "I, I don't have any money."
The night owl frowned displeasure, Gu Liechen this bastard, knowing to tell him to let the girl buy things, actually did not give the girl prepare money!stood at the doorway of the shop, watching Hou Shao get into the car and head toward his destination.She sometimes envies Hou Shao's freedom, to do what he wants.Has she ever asked herself, "Regret"...
