C45

Although Yan Chen only gave a faint glance, Jiang Huai could feel Yan Chen's powerful and ice-cold aura from a distance, and he was completely unable to see through his mood at all. This man … Seeing that his car had already gone far away, Jiang Huai's entire body was covered in a cold chill. A storm was brewing in his eyes, and he tightly clenched his fist as the veins on the back of his hand bulged.

Yu Xi held the bag in her hands as she looked out the window. When she got on the car, she wanted to explain, but she didn't know where to start. Looking at the side of Yan Chen's expressionless face, she thought for a moment but didn't say anything.

For the first time ever, he tapped his fingertips on the steering wheel, as if deep in thought.

Just when Yu Xi thought that he would stay silent all the way home, Yan Chen glanced out of the corner of his eye at Yu Xi. His thin lips slowly parted as he asked in a low voice, "Who is that man?"

His question was too sudden. Yu Xi was still in a daze, pulled back to the car by his voice. She turned her head slightly and looked at him in a daze. She subconsciously whispered, "What …"

He remembered that man's expression when he was at the entrance of the famous building, it was obvious that he had been staring at Yu Xi. When he thought of the stubbornness in that man's eyes, he felt a burst of annoyance in his heart, and with a slight frown, he opened his mouth once again, "I'm asking you, who is that man, and what is your relationship?"

Yu Xi came back to her senses and knew that he was asking about Jiang Huai, but she didn't know how to start the conversation. She was silent again for a moment as she lowered her eyes and stared at her hand that was tightly holding the bag.

Ahead of him was the shore, Yu Xi's apartment. Yan Chen saw her silence. The irritation in his heart grew, but he didn't ask any further and just drove the car inside.

Arriving at the bottom of Yu Xi's building, Yu Xi unbuckled her seatbelt. Just as she wanted to turn around and thank Yan Chen, she saw that Yan Chen unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car. Yu Xi stared blankly for a moment, not knowing what was going on, but Yan Chen turned around and saw that she was still sitting there.

"Oh …" Yu Xi quickly recovered her wits and got off the car. Yan Su had already walked around the car and headed straight into the building. She walked two steps quickly in confusion to catch up.

Inside the elevator, the air was completely silent. The two of them stood side by side, expressionlessly looking at the elevator door. Yu Xi slightly raised her gaze, looking at the rising number of floors, but her peripheral vision swept towards Yan Chen. She could faintly sense that Yan Chen was in a bad mood, but she didn't know why, but she didn't seem to have done anything to provoke him … She just wanted him to pick her up. Could she have delayed him for something important …?

The elevator door opened with a "ding" sound. Yu Xi saw Yan Chen walk out and felt a slight headache, so she had to bite the bullet and follow him up. Now, in front of the door, Yu Xi took out her key and hesitantly looked at Yan Chen Yan, carefully saying, "Director Yan, thank you for sending me back today …" "You …"

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by a cold voice, "Open the door. I'll be staying here tonight."

Yu Xi's hand that was holding the key almost lost its balance as she threw it away. She looked at Yan Chen in shock and mumbled in a low voice, "You …"

"You want me to drive back so late? Or maybe not? " Yan Chen lost his patience and spoke with a frown. His tone was filled with dissatisfaction.

Yu Xi was still somewhat surprised and shook her head slightly. She turned around and opened the door with a slightly uncomfortable expression and stepped into the house. Yu Xi frowned as she looked at his figure. This was the first time she realized that she had slowed down after entering her own house.

With some nervousness, she went in to put on her shoes and found a new pair of female slippers for him. She said a little stiffly, "I didn't expect you to come, and I haven't even had the time to prepare …" She had expected him to come one day, but she hadn't expected him to come so early.

Seeing Yan Chen's gloomy expression, Yu Xi glanced at her slippers, but didn't take them. She could only put them aside in embarrassment and looked at him quietly, saying, "Hui Xin is here too. He should have gone to sleep long ago. You …" You can sleep on the sofa, I'll go get you a pillow and quilt. " He headed for her bedroom.

However, she didn't notice that Yan Chen was staring at her figure. His brows were tightly knitted together, and he soon followed after her.

Yu Xi returned to her bedroom and started to rummage through the closet for new bedding. Suddenly, she heard the sound of a door being locked behind her. She quickly turned around and saw Yan Chen standing in the room with his door locked behind her.

Yu Xi's brows tightly knitted together as her heart skipped a beat. Her face was also full of vigilance. She took a deep breath and tried her best to remain calm as she asked, "Director Yan, what are you doing?"

His expression was still cold as emotions that Yu Xi could not understand surfaced in his eyes. He slowly inched closer, his eyes slightly narrowing as his somewhat gloomy voice rang out, "Heh, what should I do? Yu Xi, don't play any tricks on me. Just what is your relationship with that man and why are you hesitating and not daring to tell me? "

Yu Xi looked at him somewhat baffled, yet she didn't know how to explain her relationship with Jiang Huai because even she didn't know their current identities. She swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and with a somewhat dry voice, she said, "He's Jiang Huai, we …"

His entire face darkened, his eyes filled with an unprecedented kind of benevolence. His body exuded an aura so powerful that it could not be refused, and he once again leaned forward, almost sticking close to Xi's body. Reaching out with his strong fingers, he ruthlessly pinched her jaw, forcing her to raise her head and look at him directly, then ordered her in a displeased manner, "Remember, no matter where you are, you are still a person with my words."

His tone was exceptionally domineering, causing Yu Xi to be dumbstruck. This was the first time she had seen someone speak in such a heavy tone. She didn't expect that today's incident would make her so angry and dissatisfied.

As he watched Yu Xi blankly stare at him, his originally gloomy mood became slightly calmer, as if he was very satisfied with her reaction. He released the hand that was pinching her chin, and gently caressed it with his fingers. He could feel the warmth that spread from her face to his hand, and the displeasure in his heart gradually dispersed.
