The atmosphere was extremely awkward, and the smell of the meat skewers continued to assault Gu Yuan's last shred of pride.

Not long after, his stomach rumbled again, so loudly that even the barbecue stall owner turned to look at him.

Fu Hange pushed the plate of meat skewers towards Gu Yuan, knowing that he couldn't care less about saving face right now; filling his stomach was the priority. He grabbed a handful and shoved it into his mouth.

Fu Hange could tell he was really starving, yet he still had to put on an aloof act in front of her; it was truly pitiful of him.

Fu Hange had almost finished eating and, wiping her mouth, asked, "By the way, how did you know I was at Qin Xuan's place today?"

Gu Yuan slowed down his eating speed noticeably, trying to finish the food piled in his mouth, then took a sip of water and swallowed: "I asked Bai Xin, and she said you were with Qin Xuan. Your phone call also confirmed my guess."

Fu Hange blinked and asked again, "What guess?"

At first, she didn't know what Gu Yuan's guess was. Perhaps she had a mental block. But when she saw Gu Yuan remain silent, she suddenly realized that Qin Xuan wanted her to stay overnight.

About ten minutes later, Gu Yuan finished eating. Although he ate quickly, almost wolfing it down, his mouth wasn't greasy like those rude people. Instead, his lips were rosy and very beautiful. Under the streetlights, he looked even more mature and reserved.

"What are you looking at?" Gu Yuan glared at her.

She came to her senses and tried to get up to grab her bag and leave, but no matter how hard she tried, her hands felt like they were grasping nothing at all.

Turning around, I realized that the bag wasn't with me. All the thoughts in my mind came together, and I realized that I had forgotten to take the bag out when I was at Gu Yuan's house.

"How foolish of me!" Fu Hange slapped her forehead, her face full of anxiety.

Gu Yuan had already paid and was about to drive away when she suddenly had a bright idea. She crossed the road and ran to Gu Yuan's car, looking at Gu Yuan who was already sitting in the driver's seat: "I forgot my bag at your house."

As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Yuan turned and left. The smoke and dust made it hard for her to open her eyes. When she opened them again, all that remained was the small barbecue stall.

Gu Yuan just dumped her on the street like that? She stomped her feet in anger, and the fear in her heart returned just like when she went to Qin Xuan's house this afternoon.

A white mist had somehow formed in my eyes, blurring the outside world and making it impossible to see clearly.

The dim streetlights made her even more disoriented, leaving her standing helplessly on the street.

It was as if another car had brushed past her and finally stopped at her feet. She rubbed her foggy eyes and finally saw the person inside clearly. It was Gu Yuan, who had just abandoned her.

"Get in the car." The cold voice rang out.

This time, Fu Hange didn't sit next to Gu Yuan; instead, she sat behind him. He had seen her disheveled state just now, making her even more embarrassed to sit next to him and let him laugh at her, and she dared not speak to him.

The car drove back to where it had been before, and Fu Hange returned to Gu Yuan's house.

As soon as I entered, I saw the small white bag lying quietly in Gu Yuan's house. It lay so peacefully, completely unaware of how disheveled its owner had been while searching for her.

She slung the dangerous bag over her shoulder and timidly asked Gu Yuan, "Are you going to give it to me?"

Unexpectedly, Gu Yuan coldly replied, "Take a taxi yourself."

Fu Hange stopped talking and silently opened her bag to check if the contents were intact.
