Mysterious Man

The night is dark, and roads are desolate with very few people passing by now and then. Fei Yunyue scolded the Wen family in her heart for arranging the banquet on the outskirts.

The cold breeze blew her dark hair, leaving it scattered. Fei Yunyue booked a cab and stood by the roadside waiting for it.

Si Yunyao stood next to her quietly. She has many things to ask Fei Yunyue in her heart, but she didn't dare. She pursed her lips, kept stealing glances at her.

Far from their vision, a black Maybach is parked under the trees' shadows, merging into the darkness.

Inside the car, Lu Yan kept looking at his Boss in the backseat. They have been in the car for more than an hour, but the Boss didn't order him to go.

He didn't understand the Boss ordered him to stop the car here. Even though he does not know his Boss's thoughts, he understood that Boss was waiting for someone.

Later, two young girls came out of the hotel. One of them is dressed in a lavender gown, looking like a fairy. The other girl is also a rare beauty.

Lu Yan checked his mobile and glanced at his Boss in the rear mirror. His Boss, who worked at the laptop, stopped working and kept looking at the girls over there.

Lu Yan turned his head and observed the two girls. They are gorgeous and attractive than many girls he has seen, especially the girl in the lavender gown. From the moment she came out, the Boss's eyes never left her. He had never seen his Boss's gentle look, especially after that incident.

Finally, his Boss seems to show some interest in this girl, as a capable assistant, he should try his best to make his boss happy.

Thinking like this, Lu Yan looked at the man in the backseat and spoke, "Boss, I don't think there would be any cabs in this road. How about giving a lift to those girls? You can't leave two beautiful girls alone on the road at night."

The man in the backseat didn't speak immediately, and after a moment, Lu Yan heard him saying, "Trouble! Do as you want."

Lu Yan guessed that he would agree, and just as he started the car, he noticed that a cab stopped in front of the girls, and after the girls got in, the cab left. All this was done within a few seconds.

Lu Yan felt the temperature in the car sharply dropped, and felt a chill on his back as he listened to the cold voice, "Didn't you say there won't be any cabs in this way?"

Lu Yan scolded himself for his loose mouth attribute, which always digs pits for himself, who asked him to speak, it would have been better if he kept quiet. He stuttered for a moment and said, "Maybe they had booked a cab and were waiting for it. Yeah, that must be the case, Boss. In this route, generally, there won't be cabs."

The man didn't seem to care about his explanation, and coldly ordered, "Follow the cab."

Fei Yunyue entered the cab and asked the driver to go to First Hospital.

When Si Yunyao heard it, she was puzzled, and she asked Fei Yunyue, "Why are we going to the hospital?"

"Your grandmother has met with an accident." Fei Yunyue spoke in a calm tone as if she is talking about today's weather.

Si Yunyao almost fainted listening to her words, tears fell from her eyes, "What happened to my grandma?"

"Not clear. I found your mobile at the poolside and accidentally lifted it. A lady sputtered that your grandma had an accident and was admitted to First Hospital. So I came to find you."

"Then, do you know her condition?"

"She should be okay. Just some minor injuries." As early as she received the call, Fei Yunyue asked Xiao Jiu to check the situation of Old Lady and found it's a minor accident and nothing serious.

Si Yunyao heaved a sigh of relief and thanked Fei Yunyue in a sincere tone, "Thank you! Thank you so much! If it weren't for you, I don't know what would have happened to me. I don't know how I could pay this grace to you, but in the future, if you need any help from me, you can find me."

Fei Yunyue didn't say anything, and her almond eyes looked at the windows. Except for the light emitted by some vehicles, the entire roadway is engulfed in the darkness.

She has heard many such promises, but the people who have kept their stakes in the troubled times are very few. She doesn't believe in such promises or the gratitude expressed by people, so she rarely helps anyone.

Fei Yunyue looked at the girl sitting next to her, the entire person seems very gentle and pure. She didn't understand why she helped her, maybe it's because she doesn't want the world to lose a pure and pretty smile.

Thinking so, her lips curled, and she spoke in a lazy tone, "Don't you want to ask why I didn't immediately bring you to the hospital or inform you about your grandma's accident? Rather, I took you to the banquet hall and wasted a lot of time there."

Si Yunyao heard her typical cynical way of speaking and looked at her. She didn't notice her features clearly until now, but she has to agree that she is the most beautiful girl she has ever seen.

Even Wen Ziruo, who they call 'Goddess' in the School, couldn't hold shoes to her. She is like a fairy, shining even in the darkness. She put her hand on her chin, and her butterfly eyelashes kept fluttering as she looked at her.

When she has dealt with Ruan Yiqin and the gangsters ruthlessly, even though her methods are ruthless, she wasn't scared of her; instead, she felt comfort and security when she was with her.

She found that she didn't speak much from the time they met, she thought Fei Yunyue doesn't like talking, but now she felt the other person is charming when she said cynically.

Si Yunyao smiled and spoke in a gentle tone, "I am not a fool. I can understand why you brought me to stay at the banquet for some time, if I disappeared from the banquet without informing anyone, who knows what kind of things would happen in the banquet later. What if someone finds an opportunity to make rumors about my absence? Wen Ziruo is not a vase, she has some skills. Since I have escaped today, she will design again. Who knows if she messes up my name with the things that happened to Ruan Yiqin today. It is good that I have met some classmates at the banquet, proving my presence. If she makes any ghost, it would be easy to deal with it. But I should thank you for considering all of these."

Fei Yunyue snickered, "Naïve! You think too much. I was hungry and wanted to eat something. Who has time to think about you?"

She thought this is the version of silly white sweet but didn't expect silly white sweet to have some brains.

Si Yunyao didn't care about her words because she felt the girl next to her is different from how she talks and behaves.

The Cab reached the hospital, and both of them got down. Fei Yunyue asked the driver to wait, she doesn't want to stand roadside waiting for another cab.

Si Yunyao went to the reception and asked about her grandmother. The Lady in the reception checked the file and gave them the room details of Grandma Si.

Fei Yunyue and Si Yunyao went to the room and found an old woman in her seventies lying on the bed, and a middle-aged woman was sitting next to her.

Hearing the sound of the footsteps at the door, the Old Lady and middle-aged woman looked at the door. When she saw it's Si Yunyao, the old Lady smiled, "Yaoyao, did you enjoy your friend's birthday banquet?"

Si Yunyao didn't speak anything, she went to the old Lady and hugged her. Tears fell from her eyes, "Grandma, how are you? I am petrified today."

She hugged the Old Lady and kept crying bitterly. Even though Fei Yunyue resolved the matter in the banquet, it would definitely leave some effect on a seventeen-year girl who has never been in touch with the darkness of the world.

Even though her family is poor, her grandmother protected her well, so she didn't face any evils of society. But today, she has met with reality. Ruan Yiqin's plan and grandma's accident are like warning bells to prepare herself to face the harsh reality.

She thought she would find a well-paid job in some company and live happily with her grandmother, but now it seems her plans won't work well. If Ruan Yiqin succeeded today, her life would have been destroyed. It seems she should make changes in her plans for their future.
