Xie Huaiye felt somewhat confused, but couldn't quite put his finger on what was strange about it.
He boarded the bus for his return journey.
Yan Ning was huddled alone in a corner.
He actually covered his entire head with his coat.
He walked over and sat down in the empty seat next to her.
He reached out and gently touched the coat covering her arm.
"What's wrong? Are you carsick? Or are you feeling unwell?"
Underneath her coat, Yan Ning's face was so hot it could fry an egg.
Her mind was buzzing.
It was all told to her by Ye Qingling that she actually got drunk and kissed Xie Huaiye in the garden!
What's worse, she had absolutely no recollection of it!
Now, when she sees Xie Huaiye, she just wants to dig a hole and crawl into it, or simply evaporate on the spot.
She clutched her coat tightly, shaking her head in a muffled voice:
"N-nothing! Really nothing! I'm just a little sleepy!"
The bus finally arrived at the station.
As soon as the car door opened, Yan Ning, like a startled rabbit, darted out in a flash.
She just wanted to escape this source of her social demise immediately.
But she had only run two steps.
My wrist was grabbed from behind.
Xie Huaiye's palms were very hot, and his strength was just right, preventing her from breaking free.
His slightly amused voice came from above:
Why are you running? There are dogs chasing you!
Yan Ning felt a chill run down her spine. Her eyes were fixed on the ground, and she didn't dare to look back at him. "I'm going home! Let go!"
Xie Huaiye not only didn't let go, but also used a little force.
He pulled her back a little, leaned closer to her, and spoke with a clear smile in his voice:
"Go home? Go home which home? Have you forgotten that we were living together in a large suite at the hospital before the recording?"
boom--!
Yan Ning felt as if the top of her head had been blown off by those words.
Yes, there's that too!
How could she forget this even more outrageous thing!
She tried to remain calm and pulled her hand away, saying, "I... I'll go back and pack my things right now! I'll move out immediately!"
What's the rush?
Xie Huaiye raised an eyebrow, and the reason came out immediately, "I just finished recording a show, I should at least rest for a couple of days. Besides..."
He paused for a moment, then dropped his trump card, "Xiao Zhu was so excited when she heard you were coming back today that she insisted on coming to play with you. She's probably already waiting at home right now."
Yan Ning's heart softened at the mention of that clingy little guy.
She really missed that kid.
"...Then, I'll stay for two more days, just two more days!"
She finally gave in, lowering her head and emphasizing that she still didn't dare to look at him.
"Okay, two days it is."
Xie Huaiye smiled like a cat that had successfully stolen some fish and let go of her hand.
The two got into the flashy Rolls-Royce.
Yan Ning looked at the street scene rushing past the window, and realizing it wasn't the direction to the hospital, she paused for a moment:
"Hmm? Aren't you going to the hospital to get my things?"
Xie Huaiye looked straight ahead, his tone as natural as if he were saying that the weather was nice today:
"I've already had someone move all your things back to my villa where I usually stay. The environment there is better, and it's also more convenient for Xiaozhuo to come over and visit."
Yan Ning: "..."
My face flushed again, much to my dismay.
Something doesn't sound right at all!
What do you mean by moving back to my house?!
It sounds like they really are living together!
Soon, they arrived at the Xie family's imposing villa.
As soon as the car came to a stop, a small shell shot out.
"Sister! Sister Yan Ning!"
Xiao Zhu cheered and buried her face in Yan Ning's arms, hugging her legs and rubbing against them.
I miss you so much! Do you miss me?
The little guy's enthusiasm instantly dispelled Yan Ning's embarrassment.
She knelt down and hugged him, her eyes crinkling with laughter: "Of course I want to! I really want to!"
Xiao Zhuo immediately started chattering away, recounting the interesting things that happened at kindergarten.
He told everyone who had a fight with someone, and how the teacher praised him today, gesturing excitedly as he spoke.
At this moment.
Xie Heng also came out with a smile, his gaze first falling on Yan Ning:
"Yan Ning, it's been a long time. You've become more and more beautiful."
Yan Ning quickly stood up and said politely:
"Hello Uncle Xie, it's been a long time."
Ignored, Xie Huaiye spoke up detachedly from the side:
"Dad, your son is here too."
Xie Heng then glanced at him, his tone somewhat disdainful, "Oh, you're back. I see you."
He immediately turned to Yan Ning, his expression changing instantly to a kind and amiable smile:
"Yan Ning, you're back just in time. I've been exhausted without that kid around. I have an unavoidable banquet tonight, and I don't want to go. I'll have Huai Ye go in my place."
"Why don't you come along and have some fun, relax a bit, and be his date?"
"Huh? Me?"
Yan Ning was startled and quickly waved her hands, "This...this isn't appropriate, Uncle, is it? In that kind of setting..."
"What's inappropriate about it!"
Xie Heng waved his hand, interrupting her, "You're so beautiful, standing next to Huaiye only makes him look good!"
"Perfect! Let him take you to pick out some nice clothes! Huaiye!"
He commanded, "Don't just stand there, go now! Pick out a few nice dresses for Yan Ning!"
Xie Huaiye readily agreed and gestured for Yan Ning to proceed.
"Let's go, Miss Yan, carry out the order."
Yan Ning was completely bewildered and arranged by the Xie family father and son.
Xie Huaiye took her to the city's most upscale luxury shopping mall.
Inside a top-tier brand store that only serves VIPs.
The lights were dazzling, and the gorgeous clothes were radiant.
Xie Huaiye sat lazily on the velvet sofa, his long legs crossed.
