It was already getting very late, and regardless of whether the road was under construction recently, there was no last bus at this time, so she could only take a taxi back today.

But instead of going back to the small attic tonight, she went to Nan Nan's house first, where An An was still waiting for her.

Nannan's family doesn't live close by, and if she starts from here, it's in the opposite direction. She has to walk for a while first, and then take a taxi. Otherwise, the taxi will go around in a circle and charge more.

Although she was tired and hungry now, and wished she could rush to Nannan's house for a meal right away, but in order to save money, she still had to walk a little longer.

Looking at the long street, Mint took a deep breath, feeling that he needed to replenish some energy.

There was still chocolate in the bag. She took it out and broke off a small piece and put it in her mouth. The rest was carefully wrapped and put back in her pocket.

Lin Lin usually loves to eat snacks. She is a single girl and does not have much money. She spends all her salary on eating, drinking and having fun. She never treats herself badly and only buys delicious and fun things. This chocolate is a foreign brand.

It's very pure and tastes good. She used to have so much at home that she couldn't finish it, but now, she can't bear to take another bite. She plans to take the rest back to An An.

Although An An is very much like Guan Shouheng and doesn't like to eat such sweet and greasy things, chocolate can replenish calories and eating some in moderation is good for the body.

Thinking of his son, Mint was filled with strength. He tightened his arms, held the heavy documents, and walked on the sidewalk with difficulty step by step.

Fortunately, it didn't rain tonight, so she wasn't too miserable.

There seemed to be no pedestrians on the whole street, only vehicles were driving back and forth, and the sky was very quiet.

Who said she is not miserable? She is too optimistic!

Maybe it was due to the recent road maintenance here. There were a lot of clods and stones on the sidewalk. She accidentally kicked one.

Unfortunately, she was wearing fish-mouth shoes today, and the big toe in front of her suddenly hurt terribly.

Moreover, the stone seemed to be quite sharp, and she felt as if her skin had been scratched, with a faint pain.

Not sure if there was any bleeding, she decided to go to the street lamp in front to take a look.

The originally heavy steps became even slower, and Mint walked with difficulty.

Suddenly, the sound of a car came from behind, very close.

She subconsciously turned her head to look, her eyes widening suddenly.

The familiar black Mercedes-Benz S-Class slowly parked beside her, the window slowly rolled down, and Guan Shouheng's resolute and stylish profile was revealed from the window.

"What's wrong with you? Do you need help?" He looked at her, his dark eyes as deep as ever.

"No, no, I'm fine." Mint quickly denied, not wanting him to see her in an even more embarrassed state.

Although there are street lights on both sides of the road, there is only one for several meters. The position where Bo Bo is standing is right between the two street lights, so the light is not too bright, and even Guan Shouheng cannot see clearly, but he cannot be like this

never mind.

"Get in the car." He opened the door.

"No, I'm really fine." Mint subconsciously curled up her toes, nodded politely to him, and then continued walking forward alone.

The car also continued to move forward, but it was very small, very slowly, very slowly following her.

"Get in the car!" Guan Shouheng reiterated again, his eyes looking more powerful.

Mint's heartstrings tightened, but she pretended to turn a deaf ear and didn't turn her head, let alone pay attention to him.

"I just saw something wrong with your walking posture from behind!" Guan Shouheng stared at her obviously pale face with a pair of sharp eyes.

"I'm fine!" She denied stubbornly.

"You can get in the car if you have nothing to do, and I'll take you back." Guan Shouheng insisted.

"No need!" Mint was also stubborn. After the experience of staying at his house last night, she couldn't let him drive her again, especially after so many things happened today.

She subconsciously tightened her arms. The heavy bags in her arms made her a little overwhelmed. In fact, she wanted to just take the documents out of the bag and give them to him, but this was not an office. She felt that if she did that, she would give it to others.

It gave her the impression of being resistant, so she had no choice but to endure it.

He strode forward and deliberately quickened his pace. However, his injured toe became even more painful. Every step he took felt like he was stepping on a mountain of knives and a sea of ​​fire.

Guan Shouheng's eyes darkened as he looked at her, clearly feeling uncomfortable, but still insisting on showing off.

He drove the car slowly, slowly, slowly following her.

Mint ignored him and continued walking forward alone. It wasn't until she came under a streetlight that she lowered her head and looked at her feet.

Oops, it's really bleeding!

"I say it one last time, get in the car!" Guan Shouheng drove the car next to her and said again.

Mint was immediately embarrassed and shouted back at him as if he was a little angry, "I said no!"

She didn't know whether it was pain, anger, or something else, but she felt cramps in her chest, as if it was difficult to breathe.

A beautiful face with a slightly ferocious expression, and her face became paler, but those bright eyes were still so persistent and refused to show weakness at all.

Yes, she didn't want to show weakness, let alone turn herself into a resentful woman. She made a mistake and deserved to be punished. She didn't want to get into trouble with him, but she really couldn't face him following her like this!

Mint supported her body and continued to stride forward.

Guan Shouheng's jaw tightened very tightly. He stepped on the accelerator and the car instantly rushed out at a lightning speed.

A whirlwind-like airflow blew up the hem of Mint's skirt and ruffled her already slightly messy hair.

The car's taillights flashed, which made her feel a little dazzling.

Mint endured the pain and resolutely walked forward alone, but before she had gone too far, the sound of a car sounded behind her again, and it also honked at her.

"I said no need...Zhuoxi? Why are you..." Her voice gradually became smaller and died down.

The white Aston Martin stopped slowly, Zhuo Xi's handsome profile was revealed, and concern oozed from his clear eyes, "I know you work overtime, so I came here to pick you up."

Mint quickly adjusted her emotions, and Zhuo Xi opened the car door for her, "Get in the car, let's go pick up An An."

An'an...

Mint didn't hesitate and quickly bent down and got into the car.

The moment the car turned the corner, the black Mercedes-Benz S-Class drove back again.

Guan Shouheng looked at the familiar white Aston Martin, a hint of darkness flashed in his eyes.

On the shelf next to the steering wheel, a box of white ointment and a few small band-aids lay quietly.
