The man stopped the car on the side of the road and turned his head around, taking off his sunglasses as he smiled at Xu Xiyan.
Xu Xiyan noticed the perfect facial features of the man and was shocked by who it was.
“Mr. Mo?” Xu Xiyan smiled. “It’s really you?”
She knew who the man was. He was a huge client at the place where she did her counseling job in Estan.
She used to be his counselor when his leg was cut off. She helped him get back on his feet, and he installed a prosthetic.
She never thought that he’d recovered and could even drive his own car.
“It’s really been a long time, Yim,” Mo Yutian smiled.
Mo Yutian was able to hide all of his darker side in front of Xu Xiyan and showed his brighter side.
“It really has been a long time. Since when did you come to Zstan? I mistook your car for someone else’s.”
Xu Xiyan could not believe that the wrong car she’d gotten into was Mo Yutian’s.
“I just got here not long ago. I’ve heard from others that you’ve changed your name to Jing Xi now?”
“Yeah…” Xu Xiyan smiled awkwardly.
If she was not mistaken, she’d left him a fake name when she left Estan.
She’d told him that she was Xu Xinrou, but she did not expect Mo Yutian to be able to find her.
“Where are you staying? I’ll give you a ride home,” Mo Yutian offered gentlemanly.
He decided not to act rashly. The most effective way to get close to Xu Xiyan was to be nice to her.
“It’s okay, my husband can come and pick me up,” Xu Xiyan said and smiled as soon as she thought about Huo Yunshen.
She had told Huo Yunshen to meet her at the back of the hotel and wondered if he was waiting there or not.
She was worried that Huo Yunshen would panic if he was not able to find her and was about to open the door.
As soon as Xu Xiyan mentioned her husband, Mo Yutian tightened his grip on the wheel and anger could be seen in his eyes.
He did not give Xu Xiyan any chance to leave the car as he drove it back onto the road and said, “Don’t worry. Just call him and tell him I’ll send you home. I don’t think he’ll mind it.
“All right, I’ll call him right away,” Xu Xiyan said. Since the car was already back on the road, Xu Xiyan could only accept his offer.
Huo Yunshen had waited for quite a long time, but Xu Xiyan still hadn’t shown up. Just as he was about to call her, his phone rang, and it was Xu Xiyan.
“Hey, hubby,” Xu Xiyan said.
“Jing Xi? Where are you?”
“An old friend is driving me back.”
“Is it a guy or a girl?” Huo Yunshen asked.
“It’s… a guy. I’ll tell you when I get back.”
A guy?
As soon as Huo Yunshen heard that the friend was the same sex as he was, he instantly switched to his defense mode.
As soon as the call ended, Huo Yunshens ordered his driver to start the car and drive him back.
He wanted to see which old friend his wife had met and take away his responsibility to send his wife home.
Mo Yutian stopped the car in front of Shengshi Yujing’s gate and asked, “Is it really fine here?”
“Yup, thank you.”
Xu Xiyan took her stuff and was ready to leave the car.
Mo Yutian came down from the car too and opened the door for her as he said, “Be careful.”
“Thank you for sending me back,” Xu Xiyan said as she got out of the car and stood in front of him.
“No worries. I’ve always wanted to find a chance to repay you for your kindness. How about a meal next time?”
