“I just feel that you girls shouldn’t move into some man’s place without any consideration.” Mo Liuxi’s handsome face glowed with a serious expression.
Yan Su didn’t respond, but pushed him out the door and closed it.
…
The next morning, she was awakened by loud banging. She covered her ears with the quilt, but the noise didn’t fade. Not being able to fall asleep again, she got up and freshened up. After breakfast, she called Luosang to make an early appointment with her.
Nian Junting answered the call and said, “Luo is still sleeping. Please don’t disturb her.”
“I’m sorry.” Yan Su got very nervous when hearing Nian Junting’s voice. “Can you please ask her to call me back when she wakes up?”
“No.” Nian Junting ended the call.
Yan Su wanted to cry. What on earth was wrong with those men? At last, she had no choice but to wait. At ten o’clock, Luosang finally called her. “Sorry. I just woke up. I’ve been really sleepy since I got pregnant.”
“Alright, can you come out now?” Yan Su sighed quietly.
“Sure.”
They made an appointment. Yan Su came out of her apartment, turned, and saw Mo Liuxi walking out of the apartment next door. He was wearing a pair of black jeans and a white T-shirt tucked in. His legs seemed long and straight, and his body looked so well proportioned.
Yan Su was angry, but her anger faded when she saw how good he looked.
“Morning,” he greeted her.
Yan Su glanced at him and said, “I treated you for dinner last night. Couldn’t you start working later?”
“No,” Mo Liuxi responded blandly.
Yan Su walked into the elevator grumpily. Before the door closed, a slim hand slipped in, and Mo Liuxi walked into the elevator. Yan Su turned slightly away from him. Mo Liuxi gave her a glance, but said nothing.
Once the elevator stopped, he walked out first, and Yan Su followed behind him. They both headed toward the apartment gate. Near the gate, Mo Liuxi abruptly opened the door of a silver Porsche.
Yan Su only glanced at the car and kept walking toward the gate. Before she walked out of the gate, the Porsche pulled up to her slowly and stopped. “Where are you going? I’ll give you a ride, to thank you for treating me last night.”
“If you really want to thank me, please start working later tomorrow morning,” Yan Su said, stopping.
Mo Liuxi didn’t respond, but got out of the car, dragged her to the passenger door and pushed her into the car. He did it so quickly and smoothly, that Yan Su didn’t realize what was happening until she was already sitting in the car.
By then, Mo Liuxi had gotten back into the car, buckled up, and started the car again. “Today, it’s me, so it’ll be fine,” he said, “But next time, you need to be careful. Don’t get into a strange man’s car.”
This friend of my sister’s is really careless. It’s a miracle that she hasn’t been kidnapped and sold, he thought.
“I think you forced me in, didn’t you?” Yan Su felt very unhappy. Where is this boy from? Why did his parents let him out? Can’t they just lock him up at home? she thought.
“Couldn’t you fight back?” Mo Liuxi calmly threw the question back.
Yan Su was really confused. If the car hadn’t been moving, she would have liked very much to have gotten out.
“Where are you going?” Mo Liuxi asked blandly.
Yan Su told him the name of a shopping mall.
“Are you going shopping with your roommate?”
“Yeah. How did you know?” Yan Su asked.
“I took a guess.” Mo Liuxi held the steering wheel with one hand, the other rested on the gearshift, looking pretty casual.
