Yan Rusheng ignored her struggles and led her out of the office .
They bumped into Chief Wu . "President Yan . "
Yan Rusheng asked, "Where is the back door?"
"Over here, you may leave from the canteen . " Chief Wu gestured towards a direction as he led the way .
They exited from a door and walked along a dim road . They entered the canteen, and he sent them all the way to their car .
Slam!
Yan Rusheng slammed the door after pushing Xuxu into the car .
Chief Wu bade him goodbye, and he nodded in response . He went around the car and started the engine .
Xuxu turned around to face Yan Rusheng . She was getting angry . "How do you expect me to face Zhou Shuang in the future?"
"I didn't intend for that to happen," Yan Rusheng replied casually . "Speeding, drinking at a bar and getting men to accompany you . Wen Xuxu, you're really getting brazen . "
He knew everything . Xuxu deflated, and she clarified, "I protested against her idea . "
Yan Rusheng spoke again . "So you shouldn't meet Zhou Shuang the female hooligan ever again . "
His tone was decisive .
"She isn't as bad as you've pictured . " Xuxu pouted, feeling indignant . "You can hang out, drink, and party all night long with your friends . But she's the only friend I have . "
Yan Rusheng glanced askew at her and his heart softened . "If you stop pleading on her behalf, she would be out in less than an hour . "
Xuxu beamed at him . "I got it . "
She clammed up .
Yan Rusheng said nothing more . Instead, he would occasionally catch glimpses of her .
She was quiet and seemed to have reverted to her usual state of aloofness . It made her seem distant, yet his heart began to stir once more .
A thick layer of ice covered the roads, and all vehicles were crawling over it .
Stopping and inching forward .
Sleepiness washed over Xuxu and she propped an arm against the window while supporting her head with a hand .
"Xuxu, we've reached . "
She didn't know how long she slept before Yan Rusheng woke her up .
Xuxu's eyelids sleepily fluttered . She asked, "We're here?"
She was about to open the door to get down when she noticed an unfamiliar surrounding . With doubt clouding her mind, she asked, "What's this place?"
It was dim outside, but she was certain that it wasn't her apartment, neither was it the Yans' mansion . She was confused .
Yan Rusheng unfastened his seatbelt and peered at Xuxu . "Don't you remember? It's the other end of the street at Yizhong . "
Xuxu looked and studied the street closely . She smiled . "Oh yeah . "
She rubbed her eyes . "But I'm not hungry at all . I'm so sleepy, and I just want to sleep . "
He had definitely brought her here for food . He couldn't possibly have brought her out for a spin .
Yan Rusheng had already opened the car door when he heard Xuxu . He lifted an eyebrow and said, "Thanks to you, I didn't have dinner at all . Shouldn't you grab a bite with me?"
Xuxu didn't answer, but she started to unfasten her seatbelt .
There was a drastic change in the temperature outdoors, and it made Xuxu shiver . Yan Rusheng walked towards her and held her hand .
That gesture made Xuxu feel warm all over .
Xuxu raised her head to look at the towering man next to her . "Ah Sheng, I'm freezing, can you piggyback me?"
Didn't this happen to all the pairs of childhood sweethearts? The boy would always carry the girl on his back .
Yan Rusheng heard her request and deliberated for a moment . "I'll put you down if someone spots us . "
Xuxu happily nodded . "Okay!"
She went to Yan Rusheng's back and climbed on him .
