I’ll take you back!”
His voice wasn’t loud, but there was an undeniable authority in his tone.
Lan Huanxi hung her head low, her pretty face flushing with embarrassment, not daring to look into Li Chen’s bright and deep eyes.
Seeing Lan Huanxi not saying anything, Li Chen turned to look at Moo Xi and said, “You all came by car, right?
Later on, drive her home first!”
Hearing Li Chen actually telling her to drive a hair-washer home, Moo Xi was seething with anger and could barely contain herself.
“Why should I?”
Li Chen responded with a cold smile, “Because you guys need me!”
Moo Xi wanted to retort, but Liann Ruifeng beside her held her back.
“Miss, don’t be impulsive!”
Moo Xi was grinding her teeth with hatred, her neckline heaving tumultuously, filled with an endless alluring charm of spring.
Noticing the situation turning a bit awkward, Lan Huanxi said softly, “There’s no need for the trouble, I can just walk back home!”
Li Chen spoke like a domineering CEO, “What trouble?
I always follow through with what I say.
If I say I’ll drive you back, then that’s what we’ll do!”
Moo Xi saw Li Chen so shamelessly persistent and rolled her eyes at him.
“Tsk, shameless.
If you’re going to follow through, why not use your own car?
Why use our Moo Family’s car?”
Li Chen coldly smiled again and said, “Oh?
So you mean to say you won’t drive her?”
Moo Xi was stopped dead by Li Chen’s words, stuttering without managing to say anything, just huffing in silent protest to express her inner rebellion.
Li Chen didn’t care whether she protested or not and casually took Lan Huanxi’s soft and delicate hand, saying, “Let’s go, get in the car!”
Seeing Li Chen take her hand, Lan Huanxi’s body involuntarily trembled, her round and blushing face growing even redder, with her ears becoming scorching hot.
Apart from the time last month when that fat, big-eared boss touched her inappropriately, grabbing her hand, no other man had ever touched her.
And after that incident, she had washed her hands dozens of times with more than half a bar of soap, nearly scrubbing her skin off, before she finally stopped.
However, this time when Li Chen held her hand, she didn’t feel the same disgust as before.
Instead, her heart was pounding like a little deer running wild.
Seeing Li Chen taking Lan Huanxi’s hand, a nameless rage burst forth in Moo Xi’s heart.
She felt almost crazy with anger and could only kick the car door, making metallic banging sounds.
Liann Ruifeng was also somewhat puzzled, unable to understand the reason for his young mistress’s fury.
However, he didn’t ask, focusing instead on driving his own car.
It was best not to meddle in the fights of the immortals, lest the commoner gets caught when calamity strikes.
Lan Huanxi’s home was in a rural area far from the city, about an hour’s drive away at night.
Seeing the familiar village, Lan Huanxi pointed with her pale finger, trembling slightly, “The Lan Village up ahead is my home.
Just stop at the entrance of the village!”
Liann Ruifeng parked the car steadily at the entrance of the village, and seeing Lan Huanxi struggling with the car door, Li Chen very gentlemanly pushed it open for her.
Lan Huanxi looked at Li Chen with gratitude, her face wearing a soft smile, her eyes shy.
“Huanxi, take this bank card with you; the pin is 123456.
There’s 50,000 yuan in it, which should help you with your urgent needs!”
As he spoke, Li Chen handed over the bank card he had just issued today to Lan Huanxi.
Lan Huanxi’s face froze in surprise, staring with wide, watery eyes at the bank card Li Chen was handing her.
“I’ve already helped you a lot, I can’t take this money!”
“If I tell you to take it, you take it!”
Li Chen suddenly raised his voice, startling Lan Huanxi.
After a while, Li Chen realized that the way he had spoken was somewhat inappropriate and softened his tone, “You need this money more than I do, and don’t go to places like that anymore!”
Lan Huanxi’s eyes were brimming with tears as she nodded vigorously, like a pecking chicken.
“Alright, you should head back now!”
After saying this, Li Chen turned around and got into the car.
Lan Huanxi looked at the bank card in her hand, then at the fading car lights, and could no longer control the emotions inside her heart.
Tears fell like broken strings of beads, dripping incessantly.
“Brother Li Chen, thank you.
I will definitely repay you in the future, I definitely will!”
At this moment, Lan Huanxi made a secret vow to herself that she would repay Li Chen properly in the future, even if it meant…
offering herself to him, she would not hesitate.
…
Liann Ruifeng glanced at Li Chen and asked, “Mr.
Li, where to now?”
Li Chen looked towards the undulating mountains outside the window and said, “To Cloud Mist Mountain.”
Moo Xi exclaimed, “It’s 3:30 AM, what are you doing going out there in the middle of the night?”
“To watch the sunrise!”
Li Chen couldn’t be bothered with her and casually brushed her off before turning to Liann Ruifeng, “I’ll take a nap.
Wake me up when we get there!”
Watching the comfortable and content Li Chen, Moo Xi clenched her teeth in frustration.
At this moment, she wished she could charge at him and bite him hard.
“Despicable guy, he really doesn’t see himself as an outsider.”
Half an hour later, Liann Ruifeng drove up to the midpoint of Cloud Mist Mountain.
“Mr.
Li, we’ve arrived!”
Li Chen responded offhandedly, his clear, bright eyes looked out at the mountains.
The cold moon hung high, with a few stars scattered around it.
The bright moonlight flowed like water, spilling over the human world, shrouding the whole mountain range in a hazy veil of mist.
From a distance, it looked like the “fairy who has been called forth a thousand times, holding a pipa yet partly concealing her face.”
Li Chen jumped out of the car, took a deep breath and praised, “Not bad, the spiritual power here is quite dense!”
The dewdrops were crystal clear, bending the green branches and leaves with their weight.
It was like jewels scattered over ripples of water.
There was once a poem: “A single drop of dew on the autumn lotus, falls in the clear night from Xuan Tian.
As if onto a jade plate it comes, its roundness uncertain until it settles.”
Seeing Li Chen collecting dewdrops, Moo Xi blinked her eyes in surprise and asked, “What are you doing, collecting dewdrops?”
Without looking back, Li Chen replied, “If you know, then why ask?”
Moo Xi was once again rebuffed by Li Chen, feeling annoyed inside.
“Hmph, why so aggressive?”
She was bored sitting alone in the car and also jumped out.
Just then, a multicolored poison snake as thin as a finger, with a flat, triangular head, flicking its crimson tongue, silently approached Moo Xi’s fair leg…
What do you think?
