Yan Xi reacted quickly, nodded, gave Wen Zhi a meaningful look, and swiftly made her escape.
Everything between the two had been fine up until now, but after what Yan Xi had said, Wen Zhi felt somewhat embarrassed to look at He Hanjin.
After ensuring he hadn't forgotten anything, He Hanjin finally took his car keys and headed for the door.
However, after only a few steps, he noticed Wen Zhi hadn't followed and asked, "What's wrong?"
Wen Zhi quickly shook her head and hurried to catch up.
Once seated in the car, Wen Zhi seemed somewhat restrained. He Hanjin, sensing her unease, wanted to ask what was wrong, but seeing how nervous she was, he decided to wait until she had relaxed a bit before speaking.
As the car started, Wen Zhi gazed out at the swiftly passing scenery and felt much calmer.
"Did Yan Xi say something to you?"
He Hanjin's sudden question shattered the car's quiet atmosphere, causing Wen Zhi, who had just relaxed, to tense up again.
