An Ci said thoughtfully, "Keep watching, don't alert the enemy yet."
Nod vigorously.
An Ci glanced at his watch out of habit, realizing it was almost eleven o'clock.
Having vented her anger to some extent, An Ci no longer had the interest to continue driving fast, so she opened the car door and got out.
"Let's go."
Lei Er and the other two came over, and An Ci casually tossed the car keys to Lei Er, "Thank you for your help."
Leier smiled faintly, "It's a small matter."
"Boss, I ordered takeout. You guys can eat something before going back." Nick said with a smile.
It was windy late at night, and An Ci pulled his coat closer. "No, I'll come back tomorrow. We'll have dinner tomorrow night."
Nick sighed with regret, "Okay then."
…
At this moment, in the corner of the bar.
After three rounds of drinks, Eric looked at the man opposite him and his eyes swept across the obvious shoe prints on his trouser legs, feeling inexplicably funny.
He cleared his throat and asked knowingly, "Have you met Xiao Ci?"
Shen Mo said "hmm" lightly.
He was quiet for a moment, his voice a little lower, "She's very angry."
"Serves you right." Eric smiled gleefully. "Who told you to leave without saying a word? You know Xiao Ci's temper, it's a wonder she's not angry."
Shen Mo did not refute, but pursed his thin lips slightly, "Has she been living well these years?"
"It's okay, so-so." Eric poured himself another glass of wine and crossed his legs. "Xiao Ci was very angry when you first left. She would get angry with me if I mentioned you."
Shen Mo lowered his eyes, thinking, "Really?"
"Grandpa has arranged a lot of classes for her in the past few years, and she can only return to the capital during the Lunar New Year holidays." Eric said whatever he thought of, very casually. "But I have to say, you are really something. You're gone, and you still ordered a strawberry milkshake for her? You're just looking for trouble."
Shen Mo raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes were full of questions, "She didn't drink?"
"Who knows? She said she gave it to Fugui to drink." Eric changed the subject, "Speaking of which, why did you leave in the first place? And how did you become a member of the Custer family?"
Shen Mo's eyes darkened slightly, "My father's name is Karen Custer."
Eric was surprised. The Caster family was one of the most prestigious families in Country Y. He had heard a lot of gossip about the Caster family, including Karen Caster.
The proud son of the Custer family was a lovesick man who loved beauty more than power. For the sake of a woman, he not only gave up his position as heir, but also completely severed ties with his family and ran away with his beloved.
Later, this matter was suppressed by old man Custer, and was gradually forgotten over time.
I didn’t expect that Shen Mo was actually Karen’s son. How does the saying go, there are so many strange things in the world.
Eric put away the surprise on his face, looked at him meaningfully, and asked tentatively, "Then you should know that the relationship between the An family and the Custer family is not very good, right?"
Shen Mo's eyebrows were indifferent. "My relationship with the Custer family is not very good."
Eric was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but burst out laughing the next second, "Will your old man faint from anger when he hears what you said?"
"Maybe." Shen Mo calmly changed the subject, "What's Zizi's cell phone number?"
Eric almost blurted out the number. He glared at Shen Mo with an expression that said, "Don't try to trick me." "Don't try to trick me. If you want Xiao Ci's phone number, go ask her yourself."
Shen Mo said, "She doesn't want to see me now."
Eric laughed and deliberately mocked him, "Do you regret leaving without saying goodbye?"
Shen Mo was silent. Even if he had the chance to do it again, he would still make the same choice.
He couldn't afford to take the risk on her.
At this moment, a cell phone rang suddenly.
Eric took out his cell phone from his pocket and saw that it was An Ci calling. He felt inexplicably guilty.
He sat up straight and said to Shen Mo, "It's Xiao Ci calling, don't make a sound."
Shen Mo said, "Turn on hands-free."
Eric rolled his eyes at him, but still followed his instructions and turned on the hands-free mode. An Ci's voice came from the other end of the phone, "Is the party over? Do you need someone to pick you up?"
"No, I'll take my friend's car back."
The noise in the bar was so loud that An Ci could hear it all on the other end of the phone. She asked in confusion, "Why is it so noisy over there? Where are you?"
