I hurried to the parking lot, wearing high heels because I had almost sprained my ankle several times. I was afraid that Grandpa Chen would get impatient, so I left without waiting for me.
It wasn't until I saw the familiar car and the familiar figure gracefully leaning against the door that I relaxed.
There were still a few steps before I slowed down and took a few deep breaths so that I wouldn't look so out of breath. I carefully tidied up my hair and skirt before slowly walking up to Grandpa Chen.
I looked up at Master Chen and whispered, "Master Chen."
Master Chen only nodded his head, "Alright, get on the carriage."
Although Master Chen's words were very short, he didn't ignore me, did he?
As I opened the car door, I asked Master Chen with a slight smile, "Yes, Master Chen. Isn't the banquet over? Why did you leave so early? "
"Snowfall said that she felt a bit uncomfortable." Master Chen spoke faintly, as if to illustrate a fact, but this sentence of his succeeded in turning into a sharp blade, slicing through the newly healed skin of my body.
The smile on my face stiffened, and my face paled slightly. I laughed at myself in my heart before dryly replying to Master Chen, "Is that so?"
In my heart, I actually thought that Master Chen had left earlier because of me. Now, it seems that this idea was no different from a joke. Fortunately, Master Chen didn't use the Mind Reading. Otherwise, I would have been even more ashamed.
Just when I opened the door and was about to sit down, I saw a petite figure already sitting inside. When Snowfall saw me, she even warmly waved her hand, as if all the threats in the washroom were just my imagination.
"Tingting is here? "Hurry up and come up!" Snowfall enthusiastically greeted me as if she was the hostess. I knew that she was intentionally trying to provoke me in front of me, but Grandpa Chen was very satisfied with Snowfall's magnanimity.
In the rearview mirror, Master Chen saw that I was still standing at the same place as before. He frowned in annoyance and looked at me coldly, "Why aren't you getting on the car yet? Do you want to walk back by yourself? "
I was pulled back from my thoughts by Master Chen's words and climbed into the car.
After getting on the car, I tried my best to stay as far away from Snowfall as possible, almost touching the door of the car. Snowfall, upon seeing my guarded look, sneered. Tingting, why did you sit so far away? Is there something about me that displeases you? "
At this point, Snowfall's expression had already changed to one of grievance. Upon hearing this, Master Chen immediately turned to look at me and Snowfall. He was clearly looking at me with a warning in his eyes.
I didn't think that Snowfall would be so sinister as to use Grandpa Chen to deal with me, but then I thought that if Snowfall was being polite to me, I should be even more vigilant.
Seeing that Master Chen was still looking at me with a warning, I could only move over and deny it in a dry voice, "It's nothing. I just wanted to stay by the window. Miss Luoxue, don't think too much."
Since I said so, most people would stop here. However, Snowfall still added, "Oh, so it's like that. I thought …"
Snowfall purposely dragged her tone long and long, purposely pausing at the very end of her sentence. This kind of pausing is more pleasing to the imagination, and it also proves that I intentionally made things difficult for her.
Master Chen immediately glared at me and warned me coldly, "Be more obedient."
Other than nodding my head in satisfaction, I had no other way. I could only take the opportunity when Master Chen retracted his gaze to glare back at Snowfall. Snowfall didn't avoid my gaze and instead happily met my gaze.
I simply turned my face away, closed my eyes, and pretended that there was no one by my side. But how could Snowfall so easily let me go? Taking advantage of the distance, she slipped her hand to my side and then rubbed my back.
When her palm pressed against my skin, I widened my eyes in astonishment. I immediately turned my head to look at Snowfall, thinking that this way, she would be able to restrain herself a little.
When she saw my eyes, she became even more excited. Not only that, she even slightly raised her index finger and drew circles on my back. I tensed my body up with sensitivity and sat up straight.
Snowfall acted as if she didn't know anything. She laughed twice, and her hands didn't slow down at all. Instead, she asked me hypocritically, "What happened to Sister Tingting?"
I saw that Master Chen's gaze had already locked onto me and Snowfall through the rearview mirror. I didn't dare to act rashly, so I could only bite the bullet and say, "I'm fine."
The word 'hard' squeezed out from my lips, and Snowfall smiled complacently when he saw how patient he was with me. When Master Chen saw that there was nothing strange going on between me and Snowfall, he withdrew his gaze.
I immediately stretched out my hand to brush away Snowfall's hand and sat up straight. I tightly pressed the seat cushion behind me, not allowing Snowfall to have the slightest bit of space to invade my body.
Snowfall saw that all the cells in my body had been put on guard, so he shrugged slightly at me and spread out his hands, indicating that he would not do anything rash again.
However, I wouldn't easily believe her. Along the way, I vigilantly leaned against the seat cushion behind me before vigilantly looking at Snowfall. Both of my hands were prepared. If snow were to fall and I were to make any inappropriate movements, I would push her away.
Fortunately, Snowfall also felt that this kind of teasing was very boring. After doing all those actions, she didn't do anything strange, and even turned her face away from me.
Thus, this part of the journey passed by without incident.
Master Chen drove the car to the villa's parking lot and opened the door for Snowfall. He even pressed his palm against the roof of the car to prevent the snow from accidentally hitting it.
After doing all of this, Master Chen took Snowfall's hand and led him inside. As usual, he selectively ignored me. Even though I was in the same car as Snowfall, his gentleness was still blooming towards Snowfall.
I felt a pang in my heart and a self-deprecating smile in my heart before I pushed open the door and got out.
After a second of delay, Snowfall and Master Chen had already entered the villa. I pushed open the villa's door by myself and sneered in my heart. Master Chen didn't even want to leave me with that much time.
When I pushed the door open and walked in, I clearly saw that all of the servants had a trace of mockery in their eyes. They were clearly looking down on me for shamelessly sticking to Master Chen even in a banquet that these two went to.
Their sight was too obvious, causing my already panicky heart to once again hurt. I quickly ran to my room and closed the door. Only then did I feel as though I had a sliver of breathing space.
