Han Qilu doesn’t say a word in the car . He’d occasionally turn a magazine page, or raise his wrist to look at his watch, then back to his magazine .
An Chuxia steals a glance at him as he looks at the stock market listing in the magazine . She can’t understand it . In the end, she gives up and reaches out to take the magazine from his hands . He seems to have expected it . There’s no anger in his eyes . He just lifts his eyebrow at her .
Her tepid expression lifts his mood . An Chuxia grinds her teeth and says, “No matter what, you still have to explain yourself . ”
Han Qilu doesn’t rush to answer . But after he cracks his neck, and relaxes his muscles, his right hand reaches for his tie . He answers faintly, “Explain what?”
“You!” An Chuxia says heatedly . She doesn’t want to talk to him anymore . If they go on, she’d only get angrier, and it would only make her want to return to China immediately .
However, he’s already touched her in a way that’s quite pure .
As An Chuxia stares out of the window and remains quiet, he stares at her, darting his tongue to the corner of his mouth . Women are truly troublesome .
“Since you care about me, I knew you’d be joining me at the wedding reception,” he says in the end . “This is the explanation . ”
An Chuxia blushes a bit, but she still pretends she’s upset .
An Chuxia blushes a bit, but she still pretends she’s upset .
“Who says I care about you? Love yourself! Huh!” She groans as she feels his cold nose when he embraces her . The scent that only belongs to him tickles her nasal cavity .
“You dare say you don’t care about me, huh?” Han Qilu nuzzles her ear . She doesn’t know if it’s intentional, but when he talks, he brushes his lips against her ear, making her uncomfortable and causing her ears to turn red .
“… I… . ”
“Young master, we’ve arrived at the Nuowei residence . ” . The driver didn’t know what was transpiring when he made his announcement while he slowed the car to a stop . Steward Han, who’s sitting in the pa.s.senger seat, hated watching iron for not becoming steel .

The couple in the back seat jumps as they separate . An Chuxia’s face is flushed, and she looks really cute .
“Young mistress, you may hold young master’s hand when you go in . You don’t need to be nervous . ” Then, steward Han turns his back on them and opens the door . Outside the car, Han Qilu’s door is opened by the Nuowei servants .
As soon as she takes a step, she realizes why steward Han told her not to be nervous .
She is caught by surprise when she sees the spire rise to the sky . Then she sees a large entourage of servants lining on both sides of the entrance . There are more servants here than at Lao Ling’s, but similarly, they’re expressionless .
The area is filled with a variety of luxury cars . She can attest the Nuowei family is affluent and renowned .
