628: Chapter 624: From Now On, I’m Just Your Aunt 628: Chapter 624: From Now On, I’m Just Your Aunt Ye Fan parked the car in front of Zhao Tianya’s villa as he dropped her off.
“Tianya, we’ve arrived,” Ye Fan broke the silence in the car.
“I know,” Zhao Tianya replied with a cold tone.
After responding to Ye Fan, she turned to Tantai Wanrong and reached out, tightly grasping Tantai Wanrong’s soft hand.
Since Tantai Wanrong was unwilling to admit it, there was nothing more she could say.
This was the only way she could offer comfort to Tantai Wanrong.
“Big sister, I’m getting off,” she said.
Tantai Wanrong smiled and responded, “Mhm, go ahead.”
Zhao Tianya sighed, glared fiercely at Ye Fan through the rearview mirror, and then finally pushed the car door open and got out.
After Zhao Tianya entered the villa, Tantai Wanrong said, “Xiaofan, take your aunt ho now.”
“Mhm,” Ye Fan replied, turning the car around and driving out of the neighborhood.
On the road to Baiyun District, Ye Fan wanted to speak to Tantai Wanrong, but she remained silent throughout, and he felt too guilty to disturb her.
Twenty-so minutes later, the car finally stopped under Tantai Wanrong’s apartnt building.
Ye Fan and Tantai Wanrong got out of the car one after the other.
Since the car belonged to Zhao Tianya, Ye Fan couldn’t drive it back and would have to take a taxi ho.
Thus, he walked up to Tantai Wanrong and handed her the car keys.
Tantai Wanrong took the keys, slipped them into her purse, then turned to face Ye Fan directly, her beautiful face half-lifted as she gazed at him.
Under Tantai Wanrong’s stare, Ye Fan shafully lowered his head, not daring to et her eyes.
At that mont, Tantai Wanrong reached out with her jade hand and tenderly adjusted Ye Fan’s collar and smoothed out the wrinkles on his clothes.
“Auntie, I’m sorry,” Ye Fan finally said.
Tantai Wanrong withdrew her delicate hand and said with a forgiving, gentle smile, “It’s all in the past.
From now on, you just need to show more respect for your aunt, and never lay a hand on again, understand?”
“Mhm,” Ye Fan replied, ashad.
“Hehe, I’m going upstairs.
You should hurry ho as well, otherwise Zhao Jun will be worried about you,” Tantai Wanrong said.
“Goodbye.”
“Goodbye,” Ye Fan responded chanically.
Tantai Wanrong smiled regally and turned towards the staircase.
Watching the beautiful figure of Tantai Wanrong walking away, Ye Fan felt a pang in his nose and impulsively called out, “Auntie!”
Tantai Wanrong stopped in her tracks and looked back at Ye Fan.
“Can I still call you often in the future?” Ye Fan asked.
Tantai Wanrong smiled broadly, her long, attractive eyes narrowing as she chuckled, “Of course, you can.
How could you ask such a silly question?
Oh, and rember to call the next ti you co back to Hua Hai City.”
“Mhm!” Ye Fan nodded vigorously.
Tantai Wanrong smiled gracefully once more, then turned around and ascended the stairs.
Ye Fan watched Tantai Wanrong’s graceful figure disappear at the stairway before he turned and walked away.
After leaving the White Cloud residential area, Ye Fan did not imdiately hail a taxi to return.
Although Tantai Wanrong did not bla him, she made it clear that from now on, their relationship could only be that of a normal aunt and nephew, no longer like before.
He felt an emptiness inside, his mood quite low, walking aimlessly along the street.
The passersby, vehicles, and shops all seed like smoke, drifting without any substance.
Aimlessly, soullessly, wandering like a zombie, he didn’t know how long he had walked.
Suddenly, Ye Fan felt he was about to bump into soone coming head-on, and subconsciously shifted his body to avoid the collision.
At this mont, he finally snapped out of his zombie-like daze.
“Sorry, sorry,” a gentle and elegant voice ca, followed by a pleasant, faint fragrance.
Ye Fan couldn’t help but take a closer look.
He saw a tall and graceful figure, charming and pretty in appearance, with an elegant and noble deanor.
Her eyes and brows held a hint of sorrow that inspired sympathy.
Ye Fan was sowhat srized.
Not because she was exceedingly beautiful, but because she seed vaguely familiar, and he couldn’t rember where he had seen her before.
Yet, how could he forget soone so stunning if he had seen her before?
“It’s okay,” Ye Fan responded, regaining his wits.
Though he could not recall at the mont, it was impolite to stare at a strange woman, so he interrupted his thoughts to reply to her.
In fact, not only had Ye Fan been staring at her in a daze, but Shangguan Wuqiu had also been staring at him, feeling that Ye Fan looked familiar but unable to rember where she had seen him.
Yet, she felt it was impossible.
She had not returned to Hua Hai city for over a decade, so how could it be that upon returning to Hua Hai, she encountered soone she had previously known?
When Ye Fan responded to her, Shangguan Wuqiu also ca back to her senses, her pretty face blushing as she said weakly, “Thank you.”
After finishing, she continued on her way.
However, she reined in her thoughts, fearing that she might bump into soone again while lost in mories from the past.
Ye Fan glanced at the enchanting silhouette of Shangguan Wuqiu and shook his head, confirming he really hadn’t seen this woman before, then turned around to continue on his way.
After walking three or four ters, a lovely and delicate young face suddenly arose in Ye Fan’s mind.
“Cui Wenwen?” he suddenly rembered, “Could it be that she resembles Cui Wenwen?
Her sister, perhaps?
But Wenwen never ntioned having a sister.
Besides, Wenwen is in Mingde County, which couldn’t possibly be connected to Hua Hai city.”
Shangguan Wuqiu continued to gaze at the colorful neon lights all over Hua Hai city, the towering skyscrapers, as mories from over a decade ago surfaced in her mind.
Just then, she suddenly felt her arms tightly grabbed, as if clamped by iron pliers, followed by two powerful forces dragging her into a dark alley.
Terrified, she was about to scream for help when a strong hand quickly covered her mouth, muffling her attempted cries to feeble “mmphs.”
She struggled desperately, but as a fragile woman overpowered by two strong n, her efforts were futile.
Soon, she was fully dragged into the dark alley, away from any light.
Despair flooded her entire being.
She was filled with regret—why hadn’t she gone straight to her mother’s ho?
Why did she walk alone on the streets of a bustling tropolis late at night?
Why did she indulge in her bourgeoisie sentints?
The two n dragging Shangguan Wuqiu deeper into the alley couldn’t hold back their excited laughter any longer.
They had been following this beautiful woman for over half an hour, and now they finally had their chance.
Such a beautiful woman, it was the first ti they had seen one more beautiful than any celebrity on TV or in movies.
With soone this gorgeous, one ti would be worth a lifeti!
Eventually, they dragged Shangguan Wuqiu to the end of the alley, dozens of ters away from the main street, shrouded in darkness, where even the busyness of the crowded, vehicle-filled streets would not reveal anything amiss.
