957 Beautiful Little Girl! (2/2)

Ming Ansheng thought for a while before piping up, ”I'll visit your friend's father one day.”

He knew that this was his working habit—his instinctive sensitivity to new things and people.

But he reckoned, it paid to be careful.

He just hoped that Su Yue would be happy forever, especially since she had a rough childhood.

”Brother Qi Lei is accompanying me there tomorrow.” Su Yue asked, ”Do you want to join us?”

'Brother Qi Lei.' Ming Ansheng was uncomfortable with the way she addressed him. His expression darkened and he shook his head.

”Maybe another day.”

Su Yue replied with an 'oh'. She said nothing else.

It was around eight to nine p.m., past the peak traffic period in the capital city, so the ride home was smooth.

The window lowered halfway, and the warm breeze streamed in.

The beautiful little girl leaned her head to the side, and her bright eyes closed.

Ming Ansheng lowered the speed, slowing down way before the red light. He had half the heart to refrain from bringing the car to a halt.

With one hand on the steering wheel, he supported his head and peered sideways at her peaceful sleeping figure.

She was as innocent and perfect as a porcelain doll, whereas he was stuck in an abyss of misery.

Even if he were to overcome all odds, how could he bear to drag her into the abyss with him?

'Ming Ansheng, why did you catch such forbidden and obscure feelings for her?'

…

”Hello, how's it going?”

After Xuxu returned home and showered, she leaned against the head of her bed and hugged her laptop, drinking milk as she phoned Zhou Shuang.
