"…" Yan Beicheng looked at her with his dark solemn eyes and an ambiguous half smile. "Ms. Lin, you have quite an unusual expertise."

Lin Chu said nothing, "…"

"I asked you where your house is, but you haven"t given me an answer," Yan Beicheng said. His voice was deep yet mellow when he was serious.

"It"s okay, I"ll take a taxi. Sorry to have troubled you so much tonight," Lin Chu said timidly. After all, she did not know him that well.

Yan Beicheng did not say a word, he was staring at her in silence.

Lin Chu wanted to disappear and compressed herself into the back of her seat, his unmoving stare made her nervous. Just when she felt a tingling sensation in her head and did not know what to say, Yan Beicheng finally said, "Do you hate me, Ms. Lin?"

"No!" Lin Chu quickly shook her head. "I"m grateful for your help tonight."

"Then are you afraid of me?" Yan BeiCheng continued to ask and raised his brows.

"Master Yan, you…"

"Or are you still holding a grudge from the misunderstanding in the washroom last time?" Yan Beicheng asked casually. His was charismatic and his voice was clear and pleasant, it was hard to a.s.sociate him with her first impression of him as a hooligan.

Lin Chu was at a loss for words, "…"

Misunderstanding? What a joke!

"It"s not like that. Just like what you said, it was only a misunderstanding," Lin Chu said insincerely and gave a forced laugh.

She gave in eventually and told him her address.

Yan Beicheng seemed pleased. He ignited the engine of the car and started driving. Yan Baining who was sitting on the child safety seat behind scrolled through his phone for a while, then he turned his head and looked out the window.

It was extremely quiet in the car, even Yan Ningbai was silent. Lin Chu felt a weird tension building up, to the point that she was afraid to even breathe.

She glanced sideward and saw his masculine hands on the steering wheel. Strangely enough, the sight of it made her blush. 

He suddenly stretched his masculine hands that were originally on the steering wheel towards her direction. She was startled. As his hand approached her, Lin Chu was so nervous that the muscles of her legs tightened. Her legs quivered slightly. Yan Beicheng reached for his phone in the storage compartment of the armrest console and retrieved his hand.

Lin Chu finally put herself at ease. She was too embarra.s.sed to lift up her head. She completely misunderstood the situation and she was afraid that Yan Beicheng saw her putting her guards up. She heard him chuckled, and it seemed like he was mocking her, which made her even more afraid to look up.

Yan Beicheng peeped at her, the corner of his mouth lifted as he felt a sense of achievement. He stopped the car at the red traffic light and swiftly sent a message with his phone.

Yan Ningbai"s phone screen lightened up, he looked at it and said nothing,"…"

After that, Yan Ningbai said softly, "Big Nephew, I"m hungry."

"…" Lin Chu turned around and look at Yan Ningbai in confusion. Did they not eat at Sheng Yue just now?

Yan Ningbai touched his round tummy and said, "We were about to go for dinner, but we saw you climbing out from the vent. I was so shocked at that moment I forgot that I was supposed to eat, only now the hunger"s starting to kick in.
