Chapter 216 An An is missing
She was talking to the old man here, but she completely forgot about Shen Linxuan's existence.
When he returned to the place after buying milk tea, he found that He Xiaoan had disappeared.
Shen Linxuan's deep eyes were cold, his forehead was wrinkled, and he quickly scanned the street. He thought of many rich children who were killed, and his heart was a little nervous. He immediately took out his mobile phone to call her, but no one answered the phone for a long time.
He didn't give up and kept calling, waiting for the response from the other party.
At this time, the bodyguard had bought the skewers back. After understanding the situation, the two began to look for people separately. At this time, He Xiaoan was just at the corner, and the wall blocked his view.
They looked around the street but didn't see anyone. Shen Linxuan started walking into the mall, his eyes scanning.
Maybe it was too cold and she came in?
Or did she go to the bathroom?
Shen Linxuan tried to calm his mind and analyze where she might go, but after walking around the first floor, he still couldn't see anyone. He turned around and strode to where she was just now, intending to contact the store to monitor it.
Before he got there, he received a call from the bodyguard.
"An An, where have you been? Why did you leave so suddenly without telling me? I can't get through to you on the phone and I can't find you. You really scared me to death!"
Shen Linxuan walked to the corner in a hurry. After seeing He Xiaoan, he breathed a sigh of relief. He grabbed her little hand with one hand and put the other hand on her shoulder. His breathing was a little unstable and his expression was very cold. He looked a little angry.
He Xiaoan was confused. She was talking to an old man. She finally convinced him, but she was grabbed by someone.
Turning around, she saw Shen Linxuan. He looked a little anxious, his thin lips were pale, and his forehead was covered with dense sweat in the winter.
"What's wrong, Brother Linxuan, I just came here."
An An heard the man's angry words, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she dared not speak out a word to refute, so she had to stand there and let him pull her. His hands were big and strong, and it hurt her a little.
"I thought something happened to you. Don't leave so suddenly next time. Brother Linxuan is very worried about you. I'm glad you're okay."
Shen Linxuan saw her well-behaved appearance, slowed down his tone, and tried to suppress his anxious look, not wanting to vent his anger on her.
Seeing the sweat on his forehead, He Xiaoan understood what had happened and knew that it was her fault. She immediately explained, "I'm sorry, Brother Linxuan, I saw grandpa's cart was knocked over and fruits fell everywhere. I didn't think too much and just walked over. I'm sorry to have worried you."
After hearing her soft voice, all the anxiety just now didn't seem so important. As long as she was okay, Shen Linxuan slowly let go of his tightly clenched hands and looked towards the old man.
The old man's face was a little embarrassed. It was he who caused the quarrel between the couple. After Shen Linxuan calmed down, he helped explain: "Young man, I'm sorry. The girl came to help me pick fruits. Don't quarrel. Don't blame her."
"No, I was too anxious and didn't find this place." Shen Linxuan saw the old man's appearance and couldn't put the blame on him. An An has always been kind, so it's normal for her to help when she saw such a thing.
He Xiaoan tugged at his sleeve, raised her eyes to look at his face, and whispered everything that had just happened and her plan.
After listening clearly, Shen Linxuan nodded, asked the bodyguard to drive over, and then took out a stack of banknotes from his suit and handed it to the old man, saying that he wanted to buy it.
The old man knew that they were kind-hearted, but he was no match for Shen Linxuan's words, which were sincere and reasonable, and he made arrangements in no time.
Shen Linxuan had a clear facial contour and a straight nose, and his usual cold look softened a lot.
He Xiaoan stared at him quietly, looking at the man's serious look, and suddenly felt a few tingling sensations in her heart, as if there was an electric current running through her body. She lowered her head and rummaged through her bag, found a small pack of tissues, took one out of it and handed it to him.
"Brother Linxuan, I'll give you a tissue to wipe it off. You're sweating. Don't worry next time. I'll be fine. I muted my phone last night and I forgot to turn it back on."
"Okay, just wipe it off. I'm definitely worried. As long as you're okay, these are minor issues. I just scared you."
After Shen Linxuan took the tissue, he spread his slender fingers and wiped his forehead randomly, wiping off all the sweat.
After wiping, he looked around and walked towards the trash can. He Xiaoan stared at his back, thinking about what he said and his anxious look just now. He seemed to realize something in a flash.
The man's care for her during this period was like a movie screen, showing her every bit, taking her out for dinner, inviting her to take care of the dog at home, and now asking her to go out for a trip.
Because he was the elder brother of a wealthy family, she had a natural sense of dependence on him since she knew him since she was a child, but she was not a fool, she had been in love and knew what it was like.
He Xiaoan's thick eyelashes drooped slightly, gently concealing her emotions, and stood quietly watching Shen Linxuan and the others move the fruit to the car.
"It's okay, An'an, let's go home and say goodbye to grandpa."
Suddenly, He Xiaoan woke up from her immersion, forced a smile, and said to the old man: "Grandpa, we're leaving first, I hope you are in good health and all the best."
The old man took two steps forward, raised his old arm and shook it, "Okay, thank you, and take care."
After they got in the car, He Xiaoan still couldn't cheer up. She kept thinking about when the man next to her had this idea, whether it was when he helped her fight, or when he asked her out for dinner again and again. Unconsciously, it seemed as if he had been by her side for a long time.
To be honest, apart from her father and brothers, few men care about her as much as she does. Even her ex-boyfriend can't do that. Compared with him, Zhou Rui is like a rookie, very shy.
She feels mixed emotions, and she doesn't know what to do. He is so good to her, will she be sad if she refuses him? Thinking of how he was worried about her today, He Xiaoan can't bear it.
Shen Linxuan doesn't know that the girl beside him has seen his thoughts, and thinks that she is hurt by him.
He took out the skewers and nimbly wrapped them with a napkin with his long fingers to ensure that they would not be stained with oil. Then he passed them to the girl with a clear and pleasant voice: "An An, don't you want to eat skewers? Eat them while they are hot, otherwise they will not taste good when they get cold. Here, take them."
He Xiaoan tilted her head to look at him. The man had a smile on his handsome face, and he looked particularly handsome. She took it with her white fingers and took a bite casually. She had something on her mind, so she couldn't taste anything now.
"Is it delicious? You're not happy. Brother Linxuan's tone was bad just now. An An, don't be angry. I'll put the straw in your mouth. Will you feel better if you drink something sweet?"
Shen Linxuan considerately placed the milk tea in front of her. His eyes were fixed on her face, observing her expression, fearing that she would be angry with him because of this matter.
