Chapter 75: I’ll accompany You to the End

Xu Wanwan looked at the phone that Zhao Zixuan handed over and hesitated for a moment before accepting it.

After all, this was a deserted area. If Zhao Zixuan were to leave, she might not be able to return home today.

Zhao Zixuan saw her take the phone and felt a little better.

He hurriedly went to open the car door. “Slow down.”

Xu Wanwan’s expression was calm. After she got into the car, she held his phone tightly and did not say a word.

Zhao Zixuan would look at Xu Wanwan from time to time through the rearview mirror. When he saw her beautiful face, his heart could not help but beat faster.

He did not know when it started, but Xu Wanwan’s aura was completely different from before. She did not have the earthy smell of a country bumpkin. On the contrary, she was becoming more and more elegant.

On the other hand, Xu Yue had become a completely different person after Xu Wanwan left. She did not seem like what a lady from a rich family would do.

The journey was a little long. Zhao Zixuan cleared his throat and said, “Xu Yue has really gone too far this time. Don’t worry, I’ll talk to Uncle Xu properly when we get back.”

“I know that you have no choice but to stay outside. Uncle Xu must have misunderstood you. After you’ve cleared up the misunderstanding, why don’t you go back to the Xu family?”

Xu Wanwan looked at the scenery outside the car window expressionlessly. “If you’re trying to persuade me to go back home, you’d better give up on this idea as soon as possible.”

Zhao Zixuan was at a loss for words. He was a little unwilling and continued, “Wanwan, only when you return to the Xu family will we be able to be together openly.”

“When that time comes, I’ll get my parents to get engaged to the Xu family again so that you and I can continue to be together.”

Xu Wanwan’s heart did not waver at all. The corners of her mouth curled into a mocking smile.

“There’s no need. It’s already impossible between us.”

True love never weighed the pros and cons.

Zhao Zixuan’s words right now were so weak and powerless. They were of no use at all.

“Wanwan, don’t say these words too soon. No one knows what will happen in the future.” Zhao Zixuan’s eyes showed a hint of coldness.

“If one day, Li Jingran is gone, you still have to come back to me.”

Xu Wanwan looked up at him and frowned.

“I don’t like to listen to these unlucky words. If you say it again, then stop the car in front. I’ll go back myself.”

Zhao Zixuan saw through the rearview mirror that she was really angry, so he shut up and didn’t say anything else.

The car finally drove into the city. Xu Wanwan looked at the direction on the road sign. “I’ll get off in front.”

“Where do you live? I’ll send you back.” Zhao Zixuan had no intention of stopping the car.

Xu Wanwan paused, and the corners of her lips curled into a faint smile. “The Li family.”

Zhao Zixuan tightened his grip on the steering wheel, his expression clearly displeased.

He switched the navigation to the Li family’s location, and his tone carried a tinge of sourness. “Looks like you really like this Li Jingran. It’s been so long, and you still refuse to leave?”

“Of course,” Xu Wanwan said deliberately. “The Li family is the most prestigious family in A City, and Li Jingran treats me well. Why should I leave?”

Zhao Zixuan took a deep breath. “What Li Jingran can give you, I can give you too. Besides, do you think a person like him is lacking in women?”

“He’s interested in you now, and maybe he treats you well. When he’s not interested, have you considered your situation?”

Xu Wanwan smiled faintly. “At least he’s treating me well now. That’s enough.”

Zhao Zixuan was so angry that he could not speak. He stepped on the accelerator and sped up.

In just a few minutes, his car had stopped at the Li family’s entrance.

He got out of the car and opened the door. A hint of calculation flashed past his eyes. “Wanwan, why don’t I send you in?”

Xu Wanwan glanced at him lightly. She could tell that he was up to no good and immediately closed the car door. “There’s no need. Mr. Li won’t welcome you.”

With that, she stuffed her phone into Zhao Zixuan’s hand, thanked him, and turned to leave.

Zhao Zixuan stared at her back, his eyes full of resentment.

At this moment, all the servants in the Li family didn’t dare to breathe loudly. The atmosphere in the entire house was especially gloomy and depressing.

Li Jingran’s brows were tightly knitted as he kept paying attention to the news from the housekeeper.

With a creak, the door was pushed open.

Xu Wanwan closed her jacket and walked into the living room.

After only two steps, Li Jingran rushed over and grabbed her shoulder, his eyes overflowing with worry. “Why did you come back so late?”

Xu Wanwan’s thin body felt the heavy force on her shoulder. After a long time, she said softly, “I’m... fine. I played outside after school.”

She didn’t want Li Jingran to know about this, so she planned to keep it a secret.

Li Jingran was such a smart person. How could he not hear the hesitation and grievance in her tone.

He looked at the person in front of him with his deep eyes, his heart clenched.

The clothes the girl was wearing had long been torn to shreds. There were bruises on her delicate arms and neck, and her hair was messy, as if she had experienced a tussle.

Li Jingran’s eyes were red. He had guessed something, and his voice was hoarse. “If you don’t tell me, my people will find out.”

Xu Wanwan looked up and met the man’s deep eyes. Her heart seemed to be pricked by something sharp.

Was he worried about her?

“I’m fine now.” Xu Wanwan was in a low mood. She lowered her eyes to hide the despondency in her eyes.

“I want to rest. Can I not answer?”

What she had experienced tonight was very hurtful for her.

That feeling of helplessness and fear had always shrouded her heart, and she did not want to tear open the wound and experience it again.

Li Jingran’s Adam’s apple rolled down, and he eventually swallowed his question.

“Okay, go take a shower. Come back for dinner later.”

He still compromised, not wanting to see Xu Wanwan in a difficult position.

“Okay.” Xu Wanwan nodded and left. She walked very slowly, her steps light.

Li Jingran watched her delicate figure walk away and took out his phone to make a call.

“Investigate this matter thoroughly and find the person who took Wanwan away.”

After hanging up the phone, he was not in the mood to continue with his work. He rubbed the space between his eyebrows, only to feel a wave of irritation.

At 11 p.m., the Butler had the results of the investigation. He went to the study on the second floor and hesitated for a long time before saying, “Director Li, Miss Xu, she...”

Li Jingran glanced at him coldly. “Speak.”

The Butler was so scared that he trembled. He said shakily, “After Miss Xu was released from school, she was taken into a van by two gangsters.”

“That van drove all the way to the abandoned factory in the suburbs. After that, there was no video recording.”

“We found the person who ordered the gangsters. One was Xu Yue, and the other was a girl from the Liu family.”

Li Jingran recalled the lonely look on Xu Wanwan’s face when she first came home. His eyes showed a hint of heartache before turning fierce.

“Since they want to make a scene, we’ll play along.” The voice was extremely cold.

The Butler shivered even though they were not far away. “But Miss Xu came back in Zhao Zixuan’s car. She should be fine...”

“Someone from the Zhao Family?” Li Jingran’s eyes were filled with a deep meaning.

“He did send Miss Xu to the door. You’ve dealt a blow to the Zhao family before, so I don’t think he would dare to do anything excessive.”

Li Jingran narrowed his cold eyes.. “Go and find him.”
