Chapter 725 - 731: Don’t Want to Owe You More
As soon as Chu Xiaoge finished speaking, she heard the beeping sound of the call being disconnected.
A bit speechless, she held the phone in front of her and muttered, "What a strange person..."
She had no idea why he called, hanging up so quickly.
Still puzzled, she suddenly heard the honking of a car beside her ear.
It was very piercing.
Instinctively turning towards the sound, she saw a completely black car parked beside her.
The rear window was down, and she could see Shang Dongyuan’s handsome face clearly.
Why is he here?
If he’s here, why did he ask where I was?
Really, what a weirdo.
"Get in," Shang Dongyuan glanced at her and ordered concisely.
Chu Xiaoge hesitated for a moment but obediently walked forward and opened the car door.
She hadn’t forgotten the deal she agreed to last night.
Since she was willing to stay by his side, there was really no point in refusing now.
After getting in and closing the door, the car started up.
Chu Xiaoge had no idea where they were headed, and before she could ask, Shang Dongyuan spoke up.
"Why didn’t you come to me for help? Arranging a school for Chuchu is just a word for me."
Shang Dongyuan’s voice was cool, without any noticeable emotional fluctuations.
Even though it was such a calm statement, it made Chu Xiaoge’s head feel hot.
How did he know what she was doing?
Thinking about it, with the power he holds, accomplishing such things must be easy.
As for why she didn’t ask him for help... she had never even considered it.
"I don’t want to owe you more." Chu Xiaoge sighed, still planning to break ties with him after a month.
She didn’t want to owe him more favors, nor did she want him getting too close to Chuchu.
She was just that selfish.
What if Shang Dongyuan liked Chuchu? With his abilities, taking Chuchu away from her was just a matter of a word.
How could someone as insignificant as her compete with him?
So, she could only be selfish.
Listening to her distant words, Shang Dongyuan’s brows furrowed slightly.
He turned his head, looking at her bowing in silence, and for some reason, his heart filled with even more pity.
He really wanted to hold her in his arms.
And in fact, Shang Dongyuan did just that.
But it was not as gentle as imagined. Instead, he roughly pulled her into his embrace.
Chu Xiaoge was startled and cried out, then her whole body crashed heavily into his broad chest.
"You..."
"Shh!" Shang Dongyuan signaled with his eyes towards the front seat.
Chu Xiaoge immediately understood Shang Dongyuan’s meaning.
He wanted her to stay quiet because the driver was in the front seat.
Being so close, any noise would be clearly heard by the driver.
Blushing uncontrollably, Chu Xiaoge did not dare to make a sound or struggle, obediently letting him pull her into his arms.
The familiar scent of tobacco from him filled her nostrils.
Beside her ear was the strong beat of his heart.
Above was his chiseled jaw.
He seemed to be playing with her hair.
He didn’t make any further moves, more like he was enjoying the quiet moment.
She didn’t know if his heart was calm.
But Chu Xiaoge knew that her own heart was pounding like a drum!
This was the first time she had snuggled in his arms like this.
