The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, showing no signs of stopping. The air conditioning in the car was turned up high to defog, but even so, Lin Yi was still sweating profusely.
He was extremely anxious. The sound of the rain not only masked the sound of the car moving, but Han Junche also cunningly had Wang Erlong, who was driving, turn off the headlights. As a result, the car, which was moving forward in the rain in the dark, was like a gun with a silencer, silently approaching Chi Xia.
Han Junche looked at Lin Yi, who was constantly wiping away sweat, and asked, "Are you hot?"
"Huh?" Lin Yi smiled sheepishly, "It's not hot, it's not hot."
"It's good that it's not hot." Han Junche calmly withdrew his gaze: "If it's not hot, it proves that you did see something you shouldn't have seen just now."
Lin Yi stiffened, her smile more like a grimace: "Boss, you're really overthinking it. With so many people around, what could they possibly be hiding?"
Han Junche snorted lightly: "Whether it's true or not, we'll only know when we see it."
Just as Han Junche and his group's car silently approached the house where Chi Xia was, Mengmeng, who had been sleeping soundly next to Chi Xia, suddenly stood up.
Its little nose twitched, and its sleepy eyes suddenly widened. It looked at the sleeping Chi Xia, then jumped onto her face and stomped on her.
Chi Xia's nose stung from being stepped on, and she immediately woke up. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Mengmeng frantically point outside, then let out a low "woof" and suddenly fall to the ground as if she were faking an accident, her round eyes staring at her.
Chi Xia frowned, watching its movements. What was it doing...?
"You mean, the person who stunned you back then has come?"
Mengmeng rolled up to her feet and nodded vigorously at her.
Chi Xia understood, and panicked.
Oh no, if he sees me lying with Jerry, holding hands, Han Junche's arrogant self will explode!
We hadn't even managed to appease them yet!
Chi Xia immediately let go of Jerry's hand and nudged Zhang Xin beside her: "Quick! Let's switch places, Han Junche is coming!"
Zhang Xin was still in a daze, but upon hearing Chi Xia's words, she instantly woke up. The two of them scrambled to their new positions, and even Mengmeng hurriedly ran to lie down on the other side of Chi Xia.
They had just lain down when they heard the door close outside.
Chi Xia and Zhang Xin exchanged a glance and quickly closed their eyes.
Han Junche got out of the car, raised an eyebrow and glanced at Lin Yi, who slammed the door shut and made a sound, before taking a long stride and entering the house.
The people lying side by side in the room woke up. The few who were startled awake were still a little dazed, but when they saw Han Junche, they were instantly as if they had been doused with a bucket of cold water, and became as clear-headed as possible.
They moved in unison, turning their heads to look at Chi Xia. Once they saw where Chi Xia was, they slowly exhaled the breath they had been holding.
Han Junche glanced at the sleeping spots of the group, finally settling his gaze on Chi Xia's face. Seeing her sleepy eyes, her clothes slightly wrinkled from sleeping, and her collar slightly open, he frowned.
Chi Xia felt a little guilty under his gaze, but the more she was in this situation, the less she could show her guilt!
She pretended to have just woken up and noticed his appearance, then ran happily towards him, hugged his arm, rubbed her little face against his arm, and said with great joy in her voice, "Ache, you're here. I missed you so much."
The movements and expressions were exactly the same as when Mengmeng usually acts cute.
