Xia Yinian was truly abandoned and just left by the side of the winding mountain road.
Although there was a sidewalk nearby, damn it... Gu Beicheng, the lunatic, this is halfway up the mountain. To walk down would take at least half an hour!
She had promised Taotao to go to her part-ti job. It would take half an hour just to get to the foot of the mountain, then by taking the bus, it would be more than an hour’s journey.
She took out her phone to check the ti, and her little face instantly fell.
That damned man, bastard! Villain!
Right when she was feeling dejected, suddenly, a car stopped beside her.
Gu Yin’an poked his head out: "Need a ride?"
"Yes!" Xia Yinian replied without hesitation and imdiately got into the car, not feeling embarrassed at all.
"Take to number 28 Qingcheng Road, thank you."
"You sure make yourself at ho," Gu Yin’an frowned, "I was only planning on taking you down to the foot of the mountain."
Their family’s ho was built halfway up the mountain. These two roads were usually devoid of traffic, of course, finding a taxi was even more pitifully rare, encountering one in an hour would be considered lucky.
"Please, please, I really am in a hurry. I’ll treat you to tea next ti."
Thinking it over, Xia Yinian added: "Only within US$ 100."
"..." Young Master Nan was completely speechless. Afternoon tea for under a hundred bucks, was he trying to torture his stomach?
Yet Xia Yinian was already urging him: "Hurry up, I really am pressed for ti."
Gu Yin’an pursed his lips but ultimately sped up the car.
"Why are you alone on the road? Did you walk all the way here?" Walking from the Gu’s residence to this place would have already taken nearly half an hour.
The Gu family has so many cars, as well as drivers. Isn’t it just a simple request to get off the mountain?
Surely a driver could take her anywhere she wanted to go, there’s no need to be saving the Gu family money like this?
"I was left here by Uncle," Xia Yinian didn’t like to lie when it wasn’t necessary.
"Uncle?" Gu Yin’an imdiately found it intriguing, "Why?"
"I offended him with what I said..." Xia Yinian thought it over, then couldn’t help turning her head to glare at him: "Why are you asking so many questions?"
"Did I hear that there was a strange man in your room last night? It wasn’t Uncle, was it?" Gu Yin’an asked nonchalantly, unclear whether he was serious or joking.
Xia Yinian imdiately felt a chill down her spine, and her body stiffened.
"What... what nonsense are you talking about?" So flustered! Why does he know?
"You know it’s nonsense too, so why get angry?" She’s actually blushing from anger, girls really can’t take this kind of joke.
Of course, he didn’t believe there really could be so strange man, and if there were any sneaking around, it wouldn’t be in the Gu family ho. Wouldn’t they know to go elsewhere?
Xia Yinian glared at him again but stayed silent.
Her silence was because she didn’t want to lie, so she didn’t know what to say, but in Gu Yin’an’s eyes, her lack of explanation made him all the more convinced of her innocence.
His voice suddenly softened: "Your Third Aunt has been pampered since childhood, just like Gu Ziqi, always spoiled by the family."
"This ti her daughter suffered because of you..."
"It was her own doing!" This point, no matter the ti, Xia Yinian would always insist on.
"I know." Gu Yin’an felt like laughing, this girl was so stubborn! But stubborness in the cause of truth is a virtue.
"I just wanted to say, she is heartbroken for her daughter and wanted to take it out on you, to make you suffer. Don’t be sad, everyone knows the truth and won’t believe those rumors."
