Chapter 1026 - Nervous (2/2)

…

Helian Xiao rushed into the castle hurriedly.

The Old Madam was drinking tea in the living room. When she saw the hurried man, she waved at him. “You’re off work rather early today. Come and drink some tea with me.”

“Mom, did An Feng return?”

The Old Madam blinked, looking shocked. “Didn’t Ah Feng bring food to you in the afternoon? I thought that you had made her stay in the office so that you two can go have a candlelit dinner tonight. Why? Did you lose her?”

Helian Xiao furrowed his eyebrows tightly together, staring at the Old Madam with dark eyes. “She didn’t return?”

“I didn’t see her. If she came back, doesn’t she have to come down for dinner?”

Helian Xiao’s heart immediately tightened.

The CCTV clearly showed that she had returned, but why didn’t the Old Madam see her?

Helian Xiao loosened his tie. He called the security officer on duty over, about to ask the security officer to check if An Feng had returned… when a slender figure walked down from upstairs.

An Feng walked down in a casual outfit.

It may be because she had just woken up, but sleepiness was still present on her face. “Mom, I’m sorry, I hate a slight headache in the afternoon so I slept until now. Have you eaten?”

Helian Xiao glanced at An Feng, before he glanced at the Old Madam. “Mom, didn’t you say that she didn’t return?”

“Who told you to make her sad in the afternoon? Her mood wasn’t very good when she came back, so you must have made her unhappy.”

Helian Xiao was speechless.

An Feng, who was still standing at the stairs, heard Helian Xiao’s voice and froze. All the sleepiness lingering in her dissipated immediately. She glanced at Helian Xiao, before she turned away immediately and walked back up.

Seeing that Helian Xiao wasn’t moving, the Old Madam kicked him without any care. “Go and chase after her quickly!”

Helian Xiao quickly ran up the stairs.

An Feng was about to close the door, when a well-defined hand appeared on the door frame.

Naturally, An Feng was weaker than the man, and with a push from the man, the door was pushed open.

An Feng took a few steps back.

Staring at the man who entered the room, An Feng furrowed her eyebrows, anger present on her pretty face. But with her personality, she wouldn’t make a ruckus no matter how angry she was.

An Feng wrapped her arms around her as she walked to the window.

She wasn’t planning to speak to him.

The room was carpeted, so footsteps couldn’t be heard. However, the man’s scent appeared behind her within a while.

She was hugged firmly by the man’s strong arms.

The strong masculine smell and strong arms made An Feng’s heart thump.

Because of his sudden approach, that uncontrollable flutter made her heart thump crazily in her chest.

An Feng looked down at the man’s arms. She moved her arms, wanting to pull the man’s arms away. But the man didn’t let go, moving his arms around her waist instead. He looked down at the woman who was a head shorter than him. Her warm and elegant side profile was tense, it was clear she was still angry.

He smiled faintly by her ear, his warm breath blowing near her ear. “I thought you left the house and ran away since you turned off your phone. I searched for you for an entire afternoon.”

An Feng scoffed. “I’m not a young girl anymore, so there’s no need for me to run away. Even if you made up with your first love, I would wait until you come back and explained to me before I left.”

To be honest, when An Feng saw what happened in the afternoon, all of her blood surged up towards her head. She was indeed very angry and furious, and she really didn’t want to talk to him anymore.

However, when she calmed down, she thought that there was a need to clarify everything, to communicate properly. Running away wouldn’t solve any problems.

“Helian Xiao, let go of me first.” His strong hug made it a little hard for her to breathe.

The moment she finished speaking, the arms around her waist loosened and An Feng thought that he was letting go of her. She turned around, wanting to talk to him face to face, when the man suddenly leaned forward and pressed her against the window.
