Ye Chen clenched the steering wheel and suddenly started the car. Cheng Anya’s heart thundered because of the tension, and her face was slightly flustered.
Under the cover of the night, her face seemed like a pink jade.
What had happened to Ye Chen?
Why did Ye Chen have so many secrets? Why did he have so much pain in his heart?
She remembered how Ye Chen’s body tensed up at the banquet, and how his deep and unfathomable gaze betrayed a shred of malice to Cheng Anya.
He had suffered too much.
And people felt bad at the suffering he had gone through.
Being the third young master of such a well-to-do family who was dominating and ruled with an iron fist, how could he have a gaze that reeked of desperation?
These thoughts overwhelmed the terrible consequences of Ning Ning being discovered.
Anya must be crazy!
If she was not crazy, why was he occupying her thoughts?
Cheng Anya occasionally looked up at Ye Chen, whereas Ye Chen’s cold and unfathomable gaze was directed at the front.
“Wait, how do you know my address?” Cheng Anya later discovered that Ye Chen’s car was not far from her neighborhood and was fully alert.
Looking at Anya as though she was an idiot, Ye Chen said, “Your address is written on your resume.”
“Well, you can stop here. It is harder to… reverse over there.” Cheng Anya pulled an impromptu excuse to get out of the car earlier.
Ye Chen was unfazed. “Save that nonsense!”
The road was so wide, and it’s not easy to reverse? What was Cheng Anya so afraid of that she had to blabber nonsense?
As the car reached her apartment, Cheng Anya grabbed her dress nervously. As she panicked and opened the door without even unbuckling her seatbelt, she got snapped back into her seat.
Ye Chen’s long arm reached over to her and held onto Anya’s hand, preventing her from getting out of the car.
Ye Chen’s warm palm pressed onto her back and Anya felt fiery warmth on her body.
Half of Ye Chen’s body leaned over, and his scent filled her nose.
His scent filled the entire car.
How embarrassing.
