Chapter 1123 - Her Words Could Make Him Come All the Way (2/2)

Xia Yanran felt the urge to cry and she glared at him. “It’s still quite cold in the morning. Why aren’t you wearing a jacket?”

“I was in a rush and forgot about it.”

He stepped forward, reached out his long arms and pulled her into his arms. Her face was pressed against his chest and smelling the scent from his body, she felt choked up.

Xia Yanran’s delicate chin was raised by his slender and long fingers and before she could say anything, her lips were pressed by his.

He only released Xia Yanran when she was almost out of breath. Her eyes were glistening with tears, her breath unsteady. “Why did you suddenly come?”

His forehead rested against hers and his eyes were intoxicating. “You missed me, so I came.”

Did she say she missed him last night? Xia Yanran had no recollection of it at all.

But, it would be a lie to say that she was not touched when he came all the way here all because of what she had said.

She knew that he had returned to B City from Bardahl and his company was thriving. Her hands wrapped around his slender waist and looked up at him. “You drove here?”

“Yes.”

“So you bought a new car.”

“Yes.”

“Not bad, Boss Xiao.”

He pinched the tip of her nose. “It’ll only get better. Anyway, it’s the weekend. Want to go to B City with me and look at where I work and live?”

Xia Yanran looked at him, her heart bittersweet. He was so good to her. Was she going to keep her condition a secret from him?

She should give him a chance to choose. If he could not accept it, they should just end it, right?

Although she was unwilling to give it up and helpless, who could she blame it on? She was not good enough to keep his love.

Xia Yanran held Xiao Yi’s hand and pulled him into her room.

“Sit down for a while. I have something to tell you after I wash up.”

Xiao Yi looked at her solemn appearance and laughed. “You seemed to be ignoring me recently. Do you have a wild man outside?”

Xia Yanran laughed at his words. “What will you do if I do?”

“Break his legs.”

Xia Yanran’s mouth twitched. “Boss Xiao, why can’t you change your evil nature?”

“I won’t be soft on those who dare to steal my woman.”

Xia Yanran smiled and went into the bathroom. She could feel that he cared about her and loved her a lot.

After coming back from the Capital, she did not know how to confess to him. Because she cared about him too much, she was afraid that if she said it, their feelings would get affected and so she wanted to escape.

But she understood that escaping was unfair to him.

He had the right to know everything.

After was.h.i.+ng up, Xia Yanran mustered up her courage and went into the bedroom.

“Xiao Yi…”

Xiao Yi was not in the room and was answering the phone on the balcony of the bedroom.

“Is it very serious? Okay, I’ll leave for the airport right now.”

After ending the call, Xiao Yi turned around and looked at Xia Yanran, stepping forward and kissing her forehead. “I have to go to Bardahl. A worker has fallen off the building for the first phase of a project. His family is making a scene so I have to go over.”

The words that were on the tip of Xia Yanran’s tongue were swallowed back down her throat.

“How long before you’ll be back at B City?”

“A week, if it goes well.”

Xia Yanran bit her lips. “If you get on the plane here, I’ll drive your car to B City next Friday!”

Xiao Yi pursed his lips and touched Xia Yanran’s head. “Okay, but it’s a long drive. You have to be careful.”

“Don’t worry. I could already drive when I was twenty, so I’m experienced.”

“Experienced?” Xiao Yi hugged Xia Yanran. “You’re experienced?”

Xia Yanran’s lips curled into a smile. “I’ll let you know how good I am when we’re at B City.”

“I’m looking forward to it.”

Xiao Yi handed Xia Yanran the car keys and then told her the address and pa.s.sword for the fingerprint lock. Then he kissed the corner of her lips and left reluctantly.

…

Xia Yanran went to B City a day ahead. She did not call Xiao Yi and did not know if he was back from Bardahl, but if he was back, it would be a surprise for him.

Just like how he had suddenly appeared at her doorstep that day, she was pained and surprised seeing him looking so travel worn.

His car was a Land Rover and the view was broad. Speeding away from Ning City at ten at night, she arrived there at eight the next morning.

Xia Yanran drove the car to the district Xiao Yi lived. She carried her suitcase and went into the building.

Xiao Yi lived on the second floor so Xia Yanran went up the stairs.

Entering the pa.s.sword, the door opened with a click.

Upon entering, Xia Yanran stood in the hallway and was about to take off her shoes when she suddenly discovered a pair of female high heels by the side of the shoe cabinet.

It was a stylish pair that was young and fas.h.i.+onable.
