When Xia Yanran heard Nan Zhi’s words, her dazed thoughts were pulled back.
Her thick eyelashes were lowered and she took her eyes off the license plate, a small smile on her lips. “N-nothing.”
Nan Zhi was an attentive person, Yanran did not look like nothing had happened.
Was the owner of the Bentley someone Yanran knew?
Was it one of the two boyfriends she had dated before?
Nan Zhi was still wondering about it when the light in the yard was suddenly turned on.
Two figures came out of the small building.
One was Elder Dong, the other was a young man.
The sun had not fully set, plus the light was on in the yard, so the people inside and outside the yard could see each other clearly at a glance.
Xia Yanran felt her scalp turning numb.
She never thought that she would meet Xiao Yi here.
She wanted to turn away the moment he looked at her, but her legs seemed to be filled with lead and she could not move.
They looked at each other with just a single gate between them.
In a flash, all the past memories surged into her mind like a tide.
But in the end, there was only blankness in her mind.
An unlit cigarette was held in between his fingers, his other hand held Elder Dong. They were talking and perhaps noticing there was someone outside the yard, he raised his eyes and looked over.
He was dressed in black s.h.i.+rt and pants that ended at his ankles. From afar, he looked like a CEO in the business industry and not like a big boss of the mafia.
The first three b.u.t.tons of his s.h.i.+rt were not b.u.t.toned, showing his exquisite collarbones and firm chest. His hair was very short, his hairline and sideburns clearly visible.
Xia Yanran’s gaze landed on his handsome face which looked both good and evil.
It was not like she had not seen him after they broke up. Although she had not seen him in person, she had seen the photos that her colleagues had secretly taken a few times.
He was still that man with a dangerous aura. Under his short hair, that face was still charming and handsome. However, compared to before, he had the stability of a grown man.
Now, he was even more unreadable!
But Xia Yanran could see that he was still a bloodthirsty devil in his bones.
The man only looked at her for a few seconds, there was no fluctuation of emotions in his eyes and he looked away, continuing his conversation with Elder Dong.
They came towards the gate of the courtyard.
Nan Zhi pulled at Xia Yanran.
Xia Yanran responded and stood on the edge of the yard.
“You have your business, just do what you need. You don’t have to come and see me from time to time. When my leg recovers, I will continue to take the old lady to travel around the world.”
“I don’t care if you’re going to travel around the world, but since you’re here in Hong Kong, I have no reason not to visit you from time to time. It’s not easy to meet a knowledgeable old man, so a rough person like me should get along with you and learn things.”
“You’re talkative.”
Xia Yanran heard their conversation and she clucked her tongue in her heart.
They did not have a chance to say a word to Elder Dong, but Xiao Yi knew him so well?
Was Xiao Yi also suffering from a mental illness?
Xia Yanran had no time to think about it and they had already reached the gate of the courtyard.
Elder Dong was somewhat surprised to see that Xia Yanran and Nan Zhi were still waiting outside.
How patient were these two girls?
“Elder Dong, then I’ll take my leave.” Xiao Yi reached out, shook hands with Old Mr Dong, before turning and walking towards the Bentley.
He did not even look at Xia Yanran.
Xia Yanran also did not look at him.
