She stomped her feet.
A familiar black car suddenly stopped at her feet.
The window rolled down.
Gu Xin looked at Zhai an.
Zhai an said, “If you don’t mind, I’ll send you back.”
Gu Xin looked at him with obvious repulsion.
Zhai an did not have any special emotions toward Gu Xin’s expression. She only said plainly, “It’s not easy to hail a taxi at this time. Perhaps it would be better if you went to that intersection over there.”
Gu Xin bit her lips.
.....
Zhai an smiled politely and started the car to leave.
Gu Xin suddenly went forward, opened the car door, and sat in the passenger seat.
The heater in the car came on.
Gu Xin rubbed her body fiercely. It was really cold.
Zhai an started the car and left.
The two people in the car were very quiet. Zhai an was driving seriously. Gu Xin kept her gaze outside the car window and did not speak to each other.
“Where do you live?”Zhai an asked her.
Gu Xin gave her address.
“Did you stay alone?”
“Yes,”Gu Xin said. She turned around and looked at the glass in front of her. “If I go back, my dad will break my legs.”
“Your dad won’t be so fierce. He’s just trying to scare you.”
“I know, but I don’t want him to be sad.”Gu Xin was straightforward, so she just avoided it.
Zhai an nodded slightly.
After a long while.
She said again, “It’s so late. Do you want to have dinner together?”
“No need,”Gu Xin refused.
Zhai an nodded and did not insist.
The car drove at a moderate speed to its destination.
Gu Xin’s phone suddenly rang.
Gu Xin looked at the caller ID and turned her eyes to look at Zhai An.
Zhai an had been driving seriously. As she was muting to work, she was stuck in traffic and was driving slowly.
She pressed the answer button. “Yi.”
“Where is it?”She was on her way home.
“Is everything done?”
“Yes,”Gu Xin said.
“Gu Xin.”Zhai Yi’s deep voice was very gentle. “Thank you.”
“No, I’m the one who should be thanking you.”Gu Xin pursed her lips and looked at the red light ahead. “Thank you for waiting for me.”
Zhai an held the steering wheel with both hands.
At this moment, the car had already stopped at the red light, but he still held the steering wheel in his hands. There was no emotion on his face. His eyes were staring at the flashing red light.
“I’ll wait for you at home.”Zhai Yi smiled.
“Okay. I’ll be back soon.”
“Bye bye.”
“Bye bye.”
She hung up the phone.
The green light was on.
Zhai an started the car steadily.
Gu Xin held the phone in her hand. She did not feel that there was anything wrong with her, but at this moment, she had an indescribable feeling.
The two of them had an even more silent space. It was as if they were suffocating.
At this moment, Gu Xin regretted getting into Zhai an’s car. She should not have gotten into the car even if she was freezing to death just now. It made everyone seem very awkward.
Amidst the awkwardness.
Gu Xin heard Zhai an’s indifferent voice again. “Is it Zhai Yi?”
“Yes.”Gu Xin nodded.
Zhai an smiled and suddenly did not know what to say.
Gu Xin could not stand the atmosphere at this moment. She said, “Zhai Yi and I are back together.”
“It’s pretty good,”Zhai an said.
“Yes, I love him very much. He has not given up on me,”Gu Xin said word by word with certainty.
