With a whoosh, Nian Xiaomu turned around and caught up to him at lightning speed.
Both of them exited the restaurant in tandem.
The moment Nian Xiaomu lifted her head up, she noticed that a familiar looking limousine was already parked at the side of the road.
While she was hesitating about whether she should explain everything that had happened just now to Yu Yuehan, a familiar voice suddenly called out from behind, “Supervisor Nian!”
Chen Zixin seemed to have run out from the restaurant in a hurry and was panting heavily.
An anxious look flashed past his handsome face when he saw that she was about to leave.
“I have something to tell you!”
“…”
The scene of Chen Zixin confessing to her without any prior notice when they were stuck in the room suddenly floated into Nian Xiaomu’s mind.
Her resistance toward this acted up instinctively.
She subconsciously retreated a step back. The moment she made her first move, she bumped into a solid chest that was behind her.
At a loss for words, she turned around.
Yu Yuehan had silently walked back to where she was from the car and was standing right in front of her.
His defined and perfectly shaped face emitted a formidable aura, one that was solely possessed by him.
When he saw that she was about to fall, he reached out and supported her shoulders. However, it looked like he was hugging her from behind…
Chen Zixin’s face turned pale.
As he cleared his throat, he forced a smile out and asked, “Young Master Han, can I speak to Supervisor Nian privately for a moment?”
Yu Yuehan did not reply to him. Instead, he lowered his gaze and took a glance at Nian Xiaomu.
His face darkened when he saw that she had no desire to reject Chen Zixin.
He released his grip on her. Turning around, he walked to his car and opened the car door forcefully before sitting inside his vehicle.
Nian Xiaomu and Chen Zixin were the only ones left at the roadside in the dark night.
Nian Xiaomu followed him and headed under a big tree beside the road.
The sound of the hissing wind scraped past her ears.
Reaching out, Nian Xiaomu pulled her coat closer to herself. Just when she was debating over how she should reject him tactfully, Chen Zixin suddenly took a step forward and drew her into his embrace!
“President Chen Jr., you…”
“Don’t be afraid, I just wanted a hug to console myself over a crush that ended before it could even start. I won’t do anything to you,” Chen Zixin said emotionally.
His mind seemed to have paused in time and was still replaying the incident that had occurred in the lounge just now.
The first person that she thought of when she met with danger wasn’t him, the one had been beside her the whole time.
The moment that Yu Yuehan appeared, her eyes became like stars that twinkled brightly in the night sky.
Her gaze toward him was completely different from how she looked at others.
Someone might have already secured a place in her heart long ago.
It was just that she might not have realized it herself…
A bitter laugh flashed past Chen Zixin’s face. After that, he gently released his grip on Nian Xiaomu.
As he met her stunned gaze, he flashed a big and wide smile.
“Don’t worry. I am not someone who can’t get over things. It was just a failed confession—I won’t bother or harass you. However, if the person that you like does not treat you well in the future, feel free to come and look for me at anytime!”
“…”
Nian Xiaomu stared at him with a surprised look as she stood there.
She had originally planned to make things clear to him, but Chen Zixin seemed to have known what was on her mind before she could even say anything.
However, she wasn’t very sure of what he meant by his last sentence.
The person she liked? Who was that?
Laughing, Chen Zixin walked up and said jokingly, “Even though I have failed to woo you, I think we can still stay as friends, yeah?”
Nian Xiaomu snapped back to her senses, nodded her head eagerly, and declared, “Of course!”
“Your good friend feels a little cold. He still wants a hug…” As Chen Zixin spoke, he struck a pose and pretended to lunge toward Nian Xiaomu. The next second, the doors of the limousine that was parked nearby suddenly flew open.
Yu Yuehan, who was sitting in the car, stepped out without any hesitation!
