Chapter 177
Tang Yuchen smiled faintly, his chiseled profile could make any woman’s heart flutter.
“If you’re not jealous, why are you angry, what do you care about? It’s just a ride, An Ruo, don’t overthink it.”
“I refuse to get into your car and I hope you won’t push people too far.”
“No one can change what I’ve decided.”
“You…”
At that moment, Tang Yuchen’s phone rang, He took out his phone, and the caller ID showed Yun Feixue’s name.
Without any hesitation, he answered the call, his lips curling into a mischievous smile, “Baby, did you need something?”
“Chen, where are you now?” Yun Feixue asked him casually.
“Just finished dinner outside…”
An Ruo, knowing it was Yun Feixue calling, walked up to Tang Yuchen and lightly smiled, “Didn’t you insist on driving me home? Let’s go now.”
Her voice, transmitted through the phone, reached Yun Feixue’s ears. The silence on the other end was palpable, An Ruo could almost visualize her turning pale with anger.
Tang Yuchen glanced at An Ruo playfully, and without explaining to Yun Feixue, smiled and said, “Baby, I’m going to hang up now, I’ll call you back later.”
“Chen!” Yun Feixue hastily called out to him, forcing a smile, “The question you asked me the other day, I have an answer now… You must call me later, I’ll give you the answer. Also, I trust you.”
After speaking, she hung up the phone hastily without waiting for his response.
Tang Yuchen casually put away his phone, staring at An Ruo with a meaningful smile.
An Ruo said indifferently, “Let’s go, take me home.”
She was no longer afraid of him, the worst he could do was force himself on her, what more could he possibly take from her?
The man nodded, went over to help her open the car door, and then drove her towards her place.
Upon reaching the residential area, An Ruo got out of the car, Tang Yuchen casually asked, “Won’t you invite me up for a while?”
“My place is too small to accommodate a big Buddha like you.” An Ruo slammed the car door shut, and the man drove off disinterestedly.
He pulled out his phone and dialed a number, saying indifferently, “Go check something for me…”
After giving the instructions, he put down his phone, not even considering calling Yun Feixue back.
Yun Feixue waited at home for a long time, but Tang Yuchen never called.
She was very anxious and uneasy.
She worried that Tang Yuchen and An Ruo might rekindle their old feelings, worried they were doing something behind her back.
Yet she had clearly told Tang Yuchen to call back, especially since it was to tell him whether or not she would accept his marriage proposal.
Such an important matter, he shouldn’t have forgotten.
But his not calling back, still indicated that, maybe, he was not that interested in the outcome.
The more Yun Feixue thought about it, the sadder she became, her pride and dignity wouldn’t allow her to make the call, but her heart desperately wanted to.
In the end, she couldn’t resist and dialed his number.
“Baby, what’s up?” Tang Yuchen asked her with a smile, his voice always gentle when they spoke on the phone, but at this moment, Yun Feixue couldn’t feel any tenderness from him.
His gentleness seemed communal, not exclusive to her. Rather, gentleness was just one of his masks.
Yun Feixue felt a chill in her heart, she murmured to him, “Chen, why didn’t you call me? I’ve been waiting a long time.”
