Chapter 628 - Sixth Master: Do You Want to Come to My House?
Ever since Xu Yuanfei answered the call, the atmosphere in the car became a little strange.
She held her phone and said hesitantly, “Sixth Master, I just came to deliver the desserts. Uncle and Auntie were too enthusiastic and insisted on keeping me for a cup of tea…
“That’s why I stayed a little longer.”
Everyone was an adult. His parents had asked her so much, and they weren’t fools. Xu Yuanfei was afraid that he would misunderstand that she had stayed behind on purpose, as if she wanted to pester him and stay at his house, so she naturally wanted to explain.
To Jing Hanchuan, these words sounded as if she disdained his family.
He knew better than anyone what kind of family the Jing family was. It was normal for ordinary people to be afraid and want to escape.
Everyone in the Beijing circle knew that getting close to him was life-threatening, let alone others…
All these years, even when Jing Hanchuan reached the age of marriage, no one dared to find him a blind date. Everyone thought that his grandmother’s family didn’t agree to his parents’ marriage, so their entire family was wiped out. They were marrying their daughter, but they didn’t want their whole family to die.
Moreover, there had always been a lot of such rumors. It was unknown who spread them.
There were many people who liked Jing Hanchuan’s face, but no one dared to date him.
There was no need to find a partner and lose one’s life.
“Are you scared?” Jing Hanchuan rubbed the steering wheel, his voice low.
“N-no…”
Regarding an event like inexplicably ‘meeting his parents’, anyone would feel uneasy.
Jing Hanchuan knew his parents too well, so even when he ordered desserts, he went to the store to get them. He didn’t expect his parents to find trouble for him just a few hours after he went out.
“In the future, other than me looking for you personally, you don’t have to worry about all the orders from the Jing family.”
“Is that good?” She opened a store to do business.
At this moment, there was a red light in front. Jing Hanchuan stopped the car and turned his head to look at her. The sun had already set, and the sky was dark. The street lights lit up, and the side of his face looked even more depressed. His clear voice was like a venomous snake flicking its tongue, dangerous…
… but seductive.
“You still want to come to my house?”
This question was very ambiguous. Xu Yuanfei didn’t know how to answer and murmured vaguely.
“Huh? What do you mean?” In the dark car, the atmosphere was a little awkward. He was clearly a little far from her, but his voice was very close, as if it was all around her.
“…” Xu Yuanfei pursed her lips tightly. This was a death-seeking question.
Any answer was wrong.
“So, do you want to come or not?”
“It depends on the situation. If the order is big enough…” Xu Yuanfei casually brushed him off.
Jing Hanchuan knew that she was avoiding answering him, so he didn’t continue asking.
Xu Yuanfei was so nervous that her breathing became rapid. Why does he keep asking questions that I can’t answer at all? I could clearly feel his breath blowing over just now…
It made her heart and mind tremble.
In order to divert her attention, she lowered his head and continued texting her brother.
Did it work? Where are you? Is someone making things difficult for you? Are they not letting you go? Or did you meet someone annoying?
Xu Yuanfei lowered her head and pressed on her phone. No.
Then why couldn’t you get away just now? Give me the address. I’ll pick you up. Actually, since they were young, the siblings had basically been fighting or attacking each other. Even after growing up, they would still mock and make fun of each other.
But when something happened, her brother would definitely protect her.
I’m fine now.
Don’t tell me you met some man pestering you. I’ll go meet him.
No, I’m going to the store to check today’s accounts. I’ll be back later.
We’ll talk about it when you get home.
Jing Hanchuan glanced at her. “Boyfriend?”
They just had an ordinary customer and shop-owner relationship, not close enough to ask about each other’s private lives.
“No, he’s my brother!” Xu Yuanfei hurriedly explained.
“Brother…” Jing Hanchuan’s tone relaxed slightly.
“Yes.”
“How old?”
“Twenty-three. He’s in his fourth year of university this year. He was urging me to go home.”
“Which community do you live in? I’ll send you straight back.”
“No need. Let’s go to the store…”
Jing Hanchuan pursed his lips tightly and didn’t say anything else. But his fingers holding the steering wheel tightened again.
The Jing residence was in the suburbs, and it was the evening rush hour. The car stopped every now and then, and it took more than an hour to reach the store. The two of them didn’t say much when they separated.
The Jing family car had followed behind them. After sending her back, Jing Hanchuan left in his car.
On the way back, he pursed his lips tightly, as if…
He wasn’t in a good mood.
