One second Wen Zhi had just agreed to go, and the next second he heard Aunt Xu's questioning voice behind her——

"Miss Wen, where are you going?"

Wen Zhi turned around while holding his phone.

At this time, Aunt Xu was walking towards her with a cup of fruit tea.

"I..." Wen Zhi felt guilty and looked around: "I think the weather today is not bad. I want to go outside for a walk later."

Aunt Xu responded: "Yes, the weather is very good today. Miss Wen, let me know when you want to go out, and I will accompany you."

After saying that, Aunt Xu walked forward, placed the fruit tea on the armrest coffee table next to the lounge chair, and then stood aside.

"Okay, okay."

Wen Zhi responded, thinking about the phone call with Shang Hexing. Seeing that Aunt Xu had no intention of leaving, he had to think of a way to send her away: "Aunt Xu, I want to eat the biscuits you baked yesterday."

Aunt Xu nodded: "I'll get it right away."

After sending Aunt Xu away as he wished, Wen Zhi immediately picked up his phone and looked at the screen.

However, the call has ended!

Wen Zhi looked at the screen, and his mood suddenly hit rock bottom: "It's over, could it be that what I just said to Aunt Xu was overheard by him, and he thought I was deceiving him!"

Woohoo...

She just didn't want Aunt Xu to know that she was going out, because once Aunt Xu found out, she wouldn't be able to go out.

Should I call him now and explain it to him?

At this moment, Wen Zhi hesitated whether to call back.

Aunt Xu had already come over with a can of biscuits: "Miss Wen, I brought the biscuits you asked for."

Wen Zhi quickly put down his phone: "Thank you, Aunt Xu, um..."

Aunt Xu placed the biscuits next to the fruit tea, and her eyes fell on Wen Zhi's face. Seeing that Wen Zhi's expression was a little strange, she asked softly, "Does Miss Wen have something to say?"

Wen Zhi's hand holding the phone clenched again and again: "I...I want to say..."

Aunt Xu came closer and said, "Miss Wen, please tell me."

Wen Zhi plucked up the courage: "If I want to go out for a walk by myself, is that okay?"

Aunt Xu asked: "Why do you want to go out alone?"

Wen Zhi: "I think I am a normal person, and I want to be more independent."

"Miss Wen, you are a normal person, don't deny your thoughts." Aunt Xu said very gently: "I can understand your desire to go out alone, but Mr. Nian has told you that you can only go out now with my company. Or go out with Mr. Nian, but you can’t go out alone.”

Wen Zhi pursed his lips.

It seemed like she couldn't go out without Nian Xun's permission. As for Shang Hexing, there was no need to call back.

I'm afraid he's already on the plane now, right?

As she was thinking in despair, Aunt Xu next to her suddenly made a confused voice: "Whose car is here? Why doesn't it look like Mr. Nian's car?"

Upon hearing this, Wen Zhi immediately raised his head and looked outside.

I saw a black car parked outside the large iron gate across the courtyard. Although the distance was far away, Wen Zhi still recognized the car. It was the same car that brought her back last night!

Last night...but Chen Jinhuai sent her back!

In that car...

It's Shang Hexing!

Wen Zhi stood up quickly.

The face that was originally filled with disappointment was instantly filled with a bright smile: "It's him who's here."

"Who is here?" Aunt Xu asked doubtfully.

"Aunt Xu, I'll tell you later." Wen Zhi ran towards the door before he had time to explain to Aunt Xu.

Aunt Xu was worried and followed her.

At this time, Shang Hexing had just gotten out of the car. He was standing sideways by the door. He was wearing a simple white shirt and black trousers, with his cuffs rolled up halfway.

He put his hand on the car door frame and used a little force on his arm when closing the door. Light blue veins appeared on his fair arm.

As he turned around, Wen Zhi stopped suddenly. When he looked at her, she immediately hid the joy on her face, and then stood there and looked at him.

Chen Jinhuai stood in front of the car and called out first, "Miss Wen." "Hi~" Wen Zhi waved to Chen Jinhuai.

But when she turned to look at Shang Hexing, the smile on her face immediately faded.

Be more decent in front of your ex-husband.

Don't be careless.

Seems immature!

She bit her lower lip, and for a moment she didn't know how to greet Shang Hexing. After thinking for a while, she asked, "How did you know I live here?"

Shang Hexing said: "I don't know."

Wen Zhi was stunned.

Later, she realized what she had asked, and she cursed herself inwardly.

But at this time, Chen Jinhuai specifically explained: "Miss Wen may have forgotten that I was the one who sent Miss Wen home last night."

Wen Zhi: "..." Okay, stop talking, I know!

Chen Jinhuai suppressed his laughter and turned back to the car.

Aunt Xu stood not far behind Wen Zhi. She didn't know what was going on yet, so she could only observe for the time being.

Wen Zhi walked towards Shang He.

She put her hands behind her back and was a little too shy to look at him. Her eyes wandered when she spoke: "Are you here to see me?"

Shang Hexing replied: "Yes."

Wen Zhi became even more nervous. He looked down with wandering eyes. The hands behind his back grasped the hem of his clothes and rubbed them: "Everything about me is fine, fine."

Shang Hexing looked at the various little moves she made inadvertently, with very shallow smile lines appearing at the end of his eyes: "You can see it, it's pretty good."

Wen Zhi bit his lip.

Didn't he have anything else to say? It was she who took the initiative to speak first. I don’t know how we got along with him after we got married. Was it boring every day? !

He was not like this when he bullied her in the dream, he was so enthusiastic.

Wen Zhi lowered her head and was feeling depressed when she suddenly saw Shang Hexing's hand reaching towards her. Before she knew what this hand was for, she was pulled into his arms.

Her nose was filled with the faint smell of tobacco and the fragrance of fir that she always relied on. This seemed to be a unique smell on him, mixed together, making her feel familiar and dependent.

"I'm here to pick you up."

The voice coming from above the head was low but gentle.

He was not as alienated from her as he was at the hotel last night.

Wen Zhi felt in a trance, as if in a dream, raised his head to look at him, and asked softly: "Are you coming to pick me up and go to Licheng with you?"

"Yes." Shang Hexing reminded her, "You promised."

What she said on the phone - she was willing to go.

That's why he resolutely retraced his route to pick her up.

After Wen Zhi knew his purpose, her first reaction was to be happy, but then she thought of something and snorted: "Then why did you hang up on me? I thought you thought I was fooling you, so I just left."

"Didn't you hang up the phone first?" There was a faint smile in his tone.

Wen Zhi withdrew from his arms: "I didn't want to hang up on you. I saw it when I picked up the phone and wanted to talk to you..."

As she spoke, she probably realized something, and her retort stopped here: "Maybe I accidentally hung up the phone when I was covering it, and it wasn't you who hung up."

"I know." Shang Hexing held her hand: "I'm a bit pressed for time. I'm afraid I won't be able to make it in time. Let's get in the car first."

Wen Zhi's mind is now filled with Shang Hexing, and he can't think about anything else at all. When he said let's go, she immediately followed him and got into the car without missing a moment.

At this moment, Aunt Xu saw that Wen Zhi was about to leave with the man who had come to Fenghui Garden for the first time, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "Miss Wen, you can't leave! Miss Wen!"

Aunt Xu almost took hold of Wen Zhi's hand, but was blocked by Shang Hexing.

The car door closes.

However, Shang Hexing did not get on the bus.

He turned around, looked at the middle-aged woman in front of him, and said quietly: "Tell Nian Xun, I took Wen Zhi away and I will not bring him back."

"No, no, sir, you can't take Miss Wen away. She's still sick. She can't travel far." Aunt Xu said hurriedly.
