Chapter 195 - Not Cold

“I’m sorry,” Xing Jiuan suddenly said.

“I didn’t do what I promised you.

Lu Zhichen did not drive fast. When he heard this, he stopped by the side.

This was still the suburbs. The roads were empty, and there were no streetlights. It looked a little scary.

“21, I was very worried about you,” Lu Zhichen said softly.

When he found out that Xing Jiuan had arrived at the southern part of the city, he had put aside the matters at hand and rushed over.

God knew how panic-stricken he was.

He was not someone who believed in fate or divination. However, when the person involved was Xing Jiuan, he felt even more fear.

He was afraid that something would happen to her.

“I was a little afraid.”

Xing Jiuan lowered her eyes. “I’m sorry.”

“…Jiuan, if there’s a next time, can you bring me along?

“I’ll come with you. Don’t go alone.”

Xing Jiuan looked at Lu Zhichen’s gaze and subconsciously agreed.

Lu Zhichen smiled. “Take a rest first. I’ll wake you up when we get there.”

Xing Jiuan shook her head. “I’ll accompany you.”

“Okay.”

On the way, the two of them would occasionally say a few words. Most of the time, they were silent.

However, even so, there seemed to be something silently changing between them.

When they arrived at the entrance of Xing Jiuan’s district, Lu Zhichen stopped the car.

Xing Jiuan’s eyebrows drooped as if she was a little sleepy.

Lu Zhichen called out to her.

“Wu…” Xing Jiuan touched her face and felt a little more awake.

“Go back and sleep. It’s late. Rest early.” Lu Zhichen smiled at her.

“Go back early and have a good rest,” Xing Jiuan said subconsciously.

“Okay.”

When Xing Jiuan unbuckled her seatbelt and was about to get out of the car, Lu Zhichen suddenly called out to her.

The girl’s eyes were still a little dazed and sleepy.

Lu Zhichen said again, “It’s nothing. Go back.”

“Okay.”

Watching Xing Jiuan walk in, Lu Zhichen paused for a while.

He sighed to himself, seemingly extremely helpless.

“You willful girl.”

He drove away.

Xing Jiuan went upstairs and opened the door.

Just as she had imagined, Mu Qing, Lin Ling, Ou Qi, and Lu Mingxi were all here.

She immediately said, “I’m sorry. I really had something on and I didn’t spend the night outside.”

Towards the end, when she met Mu Qing’s eyes, her voice involuntarily became much weaker.

Lin Ling walked over worriedly. “Why are you so late? It’s so late. You’re wearing so little. Are you cold?”

Actually, it was a little cold.

In the car, the temperature in Lu Zhichen’s car was just right. However, after coming out, she found that it was a little cold outside.

When she saw Senior Brother Mu Qing’s gaze, she felt even colder.

On the way, Lu Zhichen had wanted to give her the jacket he had brought.

However, Xing Jiuan was worried that Mu Qing would see it.

She did not want it.

“I’m not cold,” Xing Jiuan replied.

With that, she sneezed.

“…”

It was awkward.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Come in quickly. Ou Qi will cook ginger soup for you,” Mu Qing said coldly.

Xing Jiuan pursed her lips.

Mu Qing’s voice suddenly softened.

“I won’t scold you. Come quickly,” he said helplessly, holding a small blanket in his hand.

Xing Jiuan walked over slowly.

“Don’t come back so late next time.”

“Okay.”

“If you’re disobedient, you’ll be grounded.”

Xing Jiuan looked at him.

“No.”

Lin Ling looked at Mu Qing and could not help but sigh.

She thought Mu Qing could control her.

Was this what it meant to control her?

This indulgence!

He was just short of saying that he would fill a hole in the sky for her.
