Chapter 8

There was silence in the car, and this was the first time Anhao realized what it truly meant to be alone with him. Both of them never had the time to get to know each other due to the outrageous embarrassment and utter chaos last time.

In addition, a stack of files within Zuo Hancheng’s hands was also the reason they had not driven off yet. And on top of the files was Gu Anhao’s photo.

In the photo, Anhao had a neat ear-length bob hair that was not dyed nor permed, snowy white skin, and a face the size of a palm. From the looks of it, she appeared way more obedient and tranquil—elegant, neat, and tidy like the child of a beauty.

In contrast, Anhao in the passenger seat right now still had her elegant bob hair, but her face looked quite flustered due to the small bruises Mrs. Xu had inflicted upon her.

She still looked like a student in the present day. However, in comparison with that chaotic first encounter last month, she looked like a delinquent due to her deliberately wearing her school uniform inside out.

Zuo Hancheng knew that this girl, who frequently went to the bar with an outrageous wig and a smart-looking outfit, and had collapsed into his arms while in a daze, was a rather wild girl underneath her elegant and clean appearance! Putting aside the fact that she currently looked quite pitiful…

“The principal gave my files to you?”

Feeling uneasy, Anhao asked Zuo Hancheng upon seeing him taking a look at her files.

Those files were just her admission forms three years ago. Anhao was still able to keep calm upon seeing that no records of her past few years of outrageous misdeeds were on the forms.

After reading a few pages of her admission forms, Zuo Hancheng put those files down while seemingly not intending to answer her question.

“So where do you wanna go?” The man’s crisp and pleasant voice broke both the silence in the car and Anhao’s crippling nervousness.

Anhao turned to look at the man after regaining her senses. She was not quite clear about this man’s identity, but she knew that he was assuredly more than meets the eye.

Compared to the policemen the Xu family found, the judicial police who tagged along with Zuo Hancheng were actually the commissioners of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and were proven to be even more useful. At the same time, they all treated him respectfully and did not dare to mess with him.

Anhao had never seen other people greet and flatter others besides that hypocritical father of hers, Gu Tianming,

“Actually, I did not want to trouble you yesterday, but those policemen forced me to. As such, I let them randomly find one of the contact numbers in my phone, in the end…”

While saying so, she secretly glanced again at the emotionally detached man who was calmly looking at her.

With her face turning hot for no reason, Anhao turned away to hide her awkwardness after staring at each other for a while. “Anyway, thanks a lot! I need to go back to school.”

After saying so, an embarrassing rumbling sound came from her stomach, causing Anhao to bite her lips. Wanting to vanish in front of the man immediately, her hand hurriedly reached for the car door.

Just as she got hold of the lock, Zuo Hancheng suddenly locked all the doors in his car.

She froze and turned back at the silent Zuo Hancheng who had already started his car engine.

While frozen and not knowing exactly how to get along with this man, she heard him ask, “How long have you not eaten anything?”

To come to think of it, she had not eaten anything ever since yesterday afternoon, causing her to embarrass herself in front of the man. As such, she gave out an honest answer while touching her stomach, “One day.”

“So, what do you wanna eat?”

Anhao saw that he was driving into the high-speed traffic on the road and she knew that stopping the car was completely impossible at this time, nor getting out of it at will.

“Anything is fine.”

What Anhao meant was that she just wanted to eat something, like a steamed bun.
