Chapter 216 - I Trust You (1/2)

Elizabeth finally recovered from her cold and was getting ready to leave. As she headed down to the hotel lobby, she became mute and frozen seeing the standing in front of her.

”Liz,” Jayden Standford said as he approached her. ”I heard you caught a cold if I knew I would have visited you yesterday. I see you're heading back now.”

Her expression turned pales as she started trembling in fear of being so close to him. Those so-called sweet and romantic memories started flashing back again. Her hopes and dream to be with the man but were all turned upside down in one night. The memory that faithful night of her finding out what he did, cause her chest to tighten. As she was about to say something... She felt a jacket landed on her shoulder. She turned around and suddenly all her fears faded away as she saw the man beside him.

”You should put on more layers, you just recovered from you cold.” Yun Shen spoke in a soft and low voice ignoring the man in front of them and turned to Liying.

”Liying, grab Li Zi bag and let's go.”

Yun Shen grabs hold of her hand, without a single word she followed and did not realize she was holding on tightly to the man's hand as well. She did not know when she started feeling so comfortable around him that even seeing Jayden was like nothing...

Jayden Sanford was left on the spot without a word as he watches the girl being taken away from him. His blood boiled as he clenched his fist annoyed of what just happened. Seeing the girl being fl.u.s.tered next to the man made him a little dismay and curious about their relationship.

Inside the car, she was still unsettled by what happened and continued to hold on to Yun Shen's hand. Since it was just him inside the car and his assistant driving in front. Her fear soon faded away as she calmed down.

When they arrived at the airport, Yun Shen was wearing a pair of shades and handed one to her as well. Yun Shen stepped out of the car first as he opened the door for her. Since she was wearing a mask due to her cold, it was hard for the reports to distinguish whether or not it was her. But it was easy for them to recognize Yun Shen. Soon reports swarm at them taking their pictures question Yun Shen who the girl with him was especially she was covered in a man's coat.

Wang Ji and Liying did not approach them in order to avoid any scandals. Instead, they went ahead inside and waited for them.

Yun Shen cold aura gave distances between them and the reports, as he held tightly on the girl's hand whilst his assistant guarded her other end. When they finally arrived inside the airport, Wang Ji and Liying approached them as Liying hand over her bag to her.

”Shen…” She was a little hesitant to what she wishes to say and looked at their hands shyly.

Yun Shen let go of her hand as he walked ahead to the waiting area.

”Liying should we roam around and look for some souvenirs?”

”Really?” Liying wondered.

Elizabeth nodded her head, but her eyes were all focus on the man's back as he walked ahead.

...

Yun Shen arrived at the private waiting lounge. Inside, the staff went and handed him his coffee. As he settled down, he became enraged of what happened early. If he did not arrive in time what would have happened between her and that man. He sighs deeply as he gathers his thoughts together...

”Do a complete background check on that man's relationship with Li Zi is.”
