Although Fang Chixia did not want to admit to this cruel reality, it was the truth.
Not wanting to continue to talk to him, she played with the necklace around her neck. After being silent for a while, she slowly raised her eyes. “Take me away from here first. As long as we leave here, you can drop me off anywhere. I’ll give you the fare after I go back. I know that I can’t afford to pay such a fare with little money, but I’ll pay it back to you slowly in the future!”
Her eyes twinkled and her gaze was almost pleading with him.
Luo Yibei saw that she had been fiddling with the necklace and thought that she would use the necklace as a pawn, but she only said this. His gaze turned slightly dim, and there was a trace of something unreadable in his eyes.
After being silent for a while, he turned his eyes to the chauffeur in front and said lightly. “Start the car!”
Fang Chixia breathed a sigh of relief. Knowing that she had somehow convinced him, she looked out of the window.
When she turned her head, Fang Rong, who had his back towards her, also turned around. As soon as their eyes met, the car Fang Chixia was in drove past him arrogantly and wildly.
Fang Rong watched the car leave and his expression contorted in rage…
…
Luo Yibei drove Fang Chixia to school and after watching her enter the gates, he did not leave immediately but turned to the bodyguard in front. “Do a check on the situation in the Fang family after we get back.”
“Yes, Young Master,” that person responded. The black Rolls Royce drove slowly along the road, passing through beautiful scenery before it finally stopped in front of a quiet villa.
“Young Master Bei is back!” The servant standing outside the door stepped forward, opened the door respectfully for him, and stood humbly by the side.
Luo Yibei was about to get out of the car when his eyes were drawn to a car parked next to him.
The familiar license plate number made him frown.
Slamming the car door shut, he walked up the cobblestone path of the garden. Before entering the house, the voice he had expected could be heard. “Uncle Xichen, how can Noah do this?”
It was a coy female voice, and it sounded a little young. The pitch of her voice was high to the point that her anger could be heard from the garden.
Noah was Luo Yibei’s nickname, which was given to him by Mrs Luo, Sha Zhixing. Only those who were close to him would call him that.
Luo Yibei went into the room without any expression and glanced at the faces of the people in the house before looking at Ji Ai, who was sitting next to Luo Xichen.
Ji Ai was a very beautiful girl. Her facial features were exquisite, which made people want to hold her in the palm of their hands. At this moment, she was looking morose.
“You’re back!” Luo Xichen rubbed his temples, looked him up and down for a while before pushing Ji Ai towards him. “I’ll leave her to you!”
Standing up, he smoothed down the creases on his clothes before turning to go upstairs.
As soon as he left, Ji Ai became slightly emotional.
“Who was that woman last night? Why was she there? Noah, have you already… already…”
Luo Yibei closed his eyes. He knew that he should comfort her at this time, but he replied without any emotions on his face. “Yes.”
That one word was clear-cut and direct, leaving no room for misunderstanding.
Ji Ai stared at him, her tears shimmering in her eyes as they threatened to fall.
