Her stomach was too useless.
…
But… she seemed to be mesmerized by him again? An Ge’er couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed.
She usually wasn’t interested in men. However, she couldn’t help being attracted by his every single move when she was with him.
Bo Yan had naturally heard her stomach growling. Raising his eyebrows, he seemed to be smiling. He then retrieved another bag. It had hamburgers and fried chicken! There was even a cup of… hot milk tea.
An Ge’er’s eyes widened. “…”
Where did all these come from?!
“Tuck in, or else, they’ll get cold.”
He opened the door straight away after applying the ointment, went back to the driver’s seat, and continued driving.
She hadn’t eaten much at home. Everything tasted as dry as sawdust in that kind of environment. An Ge’er was already starving by now, and she crammed the food down. He began to look more pleasing to her eyes after her stomach was satisfied.
This was more like it. He was her little uncle; it was only natural that he cared for her.
However, just as she was praising him in her heart, she saw Bo Yan looking at her via the rear-view mirror.” It seems like your body is more trustworthy than your words.”
“Pooh!” An Ge’er spat out the milk tea in her mouth.
Dang, was she overthinking? She must be.
Why did the sentence he said earlier remind her about the raunchy paragraphs that Qiqi told her frequently…?
“Cough, I’m sorry. I’m sorry that I dirtied your car… Little Uncle…” She hastily took out tissue papers and began cleaning up the spilled milk tea.
Bo Yan was about to say never mind, but when he heard the last two words, he instantly pursed his lips together. A complex gleam flashed through his clear and elegant eyes.
He was her Little Uncle. But was that all he could be?
The sky was already dark when they reached her small apartment. Only the street lamps by the road and under her apartment were lit. The lights were dim, and people appeared to be shadowy and unrealistic. Nevertheless, she could still recognize that familiar figure at her apartment building.
An early spring’s night had the chills of the winter that was not too far gone. He had a tall figure and was wearing a black coat and the taupe scarf that she gave him. He had both his hands in his coat and stood under the apartment. His black hair was messy, and he tilted his head back slightly with his eyes closed. There was a tinge of tiredness and melancholy in his handsome face.
An Ge’er looked at him and froze on the spot.
It was Qin Mo.
She subconsciously turned her body, but Qin Mo called out to her as if he had seen her movements, “An Ge’er?”
An Ge’er’s heart began to hurt. She clenched her fists, and her eyes immediately reddened.
She had always liked Brother Qin Mo since she was young. Did the Brother Qin Mo, who doted on her, really fall for An Ruxue?
She didn’t stop in her tracks, but she could hear someone chasing after her. As expected, someone yanked her back by her arms. An Ge’er suppressed the pain in her heart and took a deep breath before turning around to face him. “What do you want to do?”
“An Ge’er… Are you hiding from me?”
An Ge’er’s eyes flickered. She remained indifferent, even though her face was pale. “No.”
It was her character. Although she had always been calm and collected, her heart was still confused when she faced him now.
“If it isn’t the case, why didn’t you pick up the phone when I called you?” Qin Mo looked at her with furrowed brows. He looked exhausted.
An Ge’er had naturally noticed that too. She discovered he looked travel-worn and weary, as if he had rushed here from some other place. Her eyes narrowed, and she relented a little. “Did you just get off a plane?”
