Chapter 360 - Stormy Night (2/2)
“Ma’am, are you all right?” The doorman who was holding the umbrella for Nan Zhi stopped and asked, puzzled.
Nan Zhi looked at the night being washed away by the storm and she felt a bitterness in her heart.
She shook her head with a smile. “It’s all right. We can go now.”
The doorman went to the front pa.s.senger seat while carrying the umbrella for Nan Zhi and helped her pull the door open. Nan Zhi got in the car after thanking him.
The door was closed and the sound of the rain outside was blocked.
Mu Sihan sat in the driver’s seat, an unlit cigar between his thin lips and his long fingers playing listlessly with a small silver lighter.
Nan Zhi pursed her lips and fastened the seatbelt with her head lowered.
From the corner of her eyes, she caught a glimpse of something familiar.
It was the handkerchief.
Nan Zhi’s heartbeat sped up and it seemed like it was about to leap out of her throat.
A few seconds later, she turned away and looked at the dangerously handsome, yet menacing man starting the engine. “Did Lin Wanyue give you this handkerchief?”
Mu Sihan looked at Nan Zhi and drove onto the main road. “How did you get the handkerchief?”
Nan Zhi looked at his well-defined face and her lips twitched, trying to suppress her feelings. “Is the person with the name embroidered on the handkerchief important to you?”
Mu Sihan tightened his hold on the steering wheel slightly. He did not look at her but asked coldly, “Answer me. How did the handkerchief end up with you?”
“If I say I saw the owner of the handkerchー”
Before she could finish, the car suddenly squeaked and stopped abruptly.
Nan Zhi was unprepared and her body lurched to the side and hit the door hard. Fortunately, she had fastened her seatbelt, otherwise her forehead would have slammed onto the car window.
Within seconds, the car started again and the man’s voice was cold and almost frightening. “She is very important to me, so tell me. Where did you see her?”
