C43 Do You Have to Go (1/2)

Taking a deep breath, Lan Xi knew that her time was up. It was best if she left while Qiao Lin was not in the living room.

Lan Xi looked longingly at her surroundings before walking out.

After Lan Xi left the villa, a bodyguard came up to ask her where she was going.

Lan Xi said that she would go for a walk by herself. If she didn't trust them, she could follow. The security guard was stumped by her magnanimous tone and did not follow, saying that he was giving her space. Lan Xi felt that it was funny, but she also felt stifled.

In order to prevent the bodyguards from discovering her intentions to leave, Lan Xi and Chi Mo Han agreed to wait for her at the street corner of the villa.

Lan Xi walked further and further away from the villa. The security guards stood at the entrance for a long time without seeing her return. They knew something had happened, so they called her while they set off to find her.

At this moment, Lan Xi, who was being cared for, was in an awkward situation. Right now, she had three men in front of her: Chi Mohan, Xiao Yunyi, and Lu Zihao. Chi Mohan and Xiao Yunyi each grabbed one of her hands, preventing her from moving.

”Why are you here?”

Lan Xi asked Xiao Yunyi in surprise. According to the usual time, he should still be working at the company.

”I should be asking you that.” Xiao Yunyi's tone was very bad. ”You should be in the villa at this time of the day. Why are you here, or with him? Where are you planning to go?”

Lan Xi was stumped by Xiao Yunyi's words. She didn't want him to know the reason behind her leaving. That would be too embarrassing.

She tilted her head and did not say a word.

”It has nothing to do with you where we are planning to go. Director Xiao, you are overstepping your boundaries.”

Even though Lan Xi didn't say anything, Chi Mo Han couldn't bear to see her wronged.

He was already jealous of Lan Xi's feelings towards Xiao Yunyi, so how could he tolerate Xiao Yunyi questioning Lan Xi like this?

”Is it because I care too much? ”Hehe.” Xiao Yunyi sneered, ”If I didn't care a bit more, she would've died to Lin Shengkun countless times already. Can she still be in front of you right now? Are you trying to bewitch her into going to Lin Zhenkun for revenge? I don't know if you want her to die for her own good or not. ”Just what are your intentions?”

Xiao Yunyi's tone was stern, and the atmosphere became tense because of his words.

Lan Xi looked at Xiao Yunyi defensively. She used some strength to free herself from the hands of the two men who were grabbing her. Then, she shifted her body to protect Chi Mo Han behind her.

Right now, the four of them were in a stalemate. Lu Zihao was standing behind Xiao Yunyi, while Chi Mohan was standing behind Lan Xi.

After Xiao Yunyi saw Lan Xi push Chi Mo Han behind him, his expression became extremely unsightly. After seeing Lan Xi's actions, Chi Mo Han felt very touched.

He didn't think that Lan Xi would protect him to such an extent that she would go up against Xiao Yunyi for his sake. However, this also reflected from the side how much she wanted to leave this place.

They just stood there for a while.

Suddenly, there was a rustling sound and a group of people ran over. It was the security guards of the villa who had found them. However, they didn't expect Xiao Yunyi to be here as well, and were dumbfounded.

Xiao Yunyi didn't say anything, but Lu Zihao stood up and asked the captain what had happened.

The security chief repeated what Lan Xi had said to him. Lan Xi felt a little awkward. She didn't expect that they would find her before she left.
