After Pei Huai left the venue, he got into the car and sat in the driver’s seat.
There was a strict speed limit on the road outside the parking lot, so it was not moving fast.
Anna ran behind the car.
Anna saw the recent news in China. The news was very hot. The netizens were discussing it and even made a clip of the couple.
When her father saw the news, he lost his temper for no reason. He said that even if she became an adult a year earlier, she wouldn’t have missed out on the best. Anyone else she married would not be good enough.
Her stepmother took his phone and read the news, but she was very calm. After reading it, she smiled and advised her father, “isn’t the girl’s mother the famous CEO of the Xu Corporation? It’s obvious that this is a marriage for alliance. There are no feelings involved. Anna still has a chance.”
“In my opinion, power is more important than money. Anna has a greater chance of winning. ”
Her stepmother could always make her father happy, and her father was in a much better mood after hearing that.
But Anna was not in a good mood.
She didn’t know if her elder brother and the girl were supposed to marry to strengthen their alliance. They looked so compatible in the photo, but she Imew that her elder brother was not patient with girls, so maybe her stepmother was right.
At this moment, Anna was chasing after Pei Huai’s car. She wanted to know the answer to this question.
The car stopped in the middle for a while. Anna was panting from running, so she quickly went forward.
She saw Pei Huai using his phone in the driver’s seat, seemingly sending a
message.
However, before she could catch up, he drove away again.
Pei Huai finally noticed the girl who had been chasing after his car from the rearview mirror when the car reached the last corner near the exit.
A few seconds later, he stopped the car.
Anna was too tired. Her two slender legs, which usually did not move much, were already trembling. It was as if she could see the blue blood vessels pumping blood.
Perhaps she did not expect him to really stop the car, Anna slowed down and stopped in front of the driver’s window. She leaned on her knees and panted heavily. Her mouth was filled with the smell of blood.
The sound of the driver’s window rolling down brushed past her ears. Her heart was beating wildly, and she seemed to have realized something. She paused for a moment and turned her face to the side and met the eyes behind the window.
This distance was a little too close for her.
“I, I, I am the duke’s…” After ten years, Anna’s appearance had changed a lot. She was much taller and her hair was much longer. She wanted to introduce herself first, but when she opened her mouth, the stutter that had been cured by the person in front of her came back.
The more anxious she was, the worse it got.
She was very annoyed and also felt very embarrassed. She wanted to perform well, but in the end, she dropped the ball in front of her former teacher and wasted his painstaking efforts to treat her.
Pei Huai’s eyes fell on her face for a few seconds and he actually recognized her. “Miss Anna.”
He still sounded the same, but because he was in a bad mood at the moment, it sounded cold.
Anna stopped. Her clear blue eyes were sparkling, and her doll-like eyelashes fluttered up and down. “You, you remember me…”
She was very surprised, and her pale face was flushed.
Pei Huai hummed softly, and his attitude gradually softened.
He looked at her as if he was still looking at the eight-year-old girl from back then.
He did take care of her.
“I’ve grown up,” Anna asked him, her eyes pure .Have I become ugly?”
Pei Huai replied emotionlessly, “no.”
Anna wanted to ask him about the marriage alliance, but she changed her mind at this moment. She didn’t want to ask about that anymore. Instead, she forced herself to calm down. “You’re in a bad mood…
