Chapter 761: Brother Yan's License Plate

Her beauty stands up to closer inspection, with a delicate and graceful face that from some angles looks like a little Bodhisattva.

No wonder even a playboy like Yaen Chi was almost reformed by her.

Now wasn’t Yin Tao standing right next to him?

Everyone was very conscious, not making jokes in that direction, not a hint of flirtation, calling her “sister” this and “sister” that, which honestly made them sound like actual brothers.

Only Yin Tao, after pondering over Ye Wanting for a while, had an expressionless face, the smile at the corner of her mouth never fading, but on closer inspection, one could sense a trace of stiffness.

Were these people flattering Ye Wanting just for Yaen Chi’s sake?

Latter, everyone dispersed to do their own things, and some who were hungry went to have a meal together.

Yin Tao tapped Yaen Chi’s shoulder and leaned in close as he bent down to match her height.

She whispered in his ear, “Some of my friends are here, it’s their first time, and they’re quite nervous, I’m going to accompany them.”

“Sure,” Yaen Chi said, “call me if you need anything.”

Yin Tao smiled, handed him her glass, and walked towards her friends.

Yaen Chi put her glass on the table and kept holding his own.

He sat next to Ye Wanting, and unlike before, did not take care of her as openly, and certainly did not offer her food, since such flirtatious gestures were no longer appropriate.

The most he did was when Ye Wanting choked, as she grabbed a bottle of water and couldn’t open it, Yaen Chi casually put his cigarette in his mouth, took the bottle from her, opened it, and handed it back to her.

“Take it slow.”

Ye Wanting: “Thank you, Brother Chi.”

“Mm.”

Yaen Chi responded and continued speaking with Jinyang next to him, leaning mostly towards Jinyang.

Ye Wanting stopped paying attention to him as she was busy taking care of Nan Jiaojiao, seeing that Nan Jiaojiao was not happy, she kept finding cheerful topics to talk about, and it didn’t matter if there was no response, a simple expression was enough.

She knew that when Nan Jiaojiao was in a bad mood, she spoke very little.

Someone wanted to sit next to Nan Jiaojiao, and Mo Tingshen pulled the chair away and set it down gently, but it ended up hitting the person’s waist.

“Brother Mo?”

Mo Tingshen casually looked in a certain direction and said, “Stay away.”

Do they not know who Nan Jiaojiao belongs to?

Did they really think calling him “Brother Yan” made them close?

Thinking of getting close to Nan Jiaojiao?

No chance.

“Yes, yes…” The man quickly apologized with a smile and scurried away.

There was just one seat between Mo Tingshen and Nan Jiaojiao.

He placed a plate of boiled shrimp in front of himself, peeled them neatly, and while they were still warm, moved them in front of Nan Jiaojiao.

Nan Jiaojiao glanced at him, said nothing, but her eyes were distant.

“Chu Yao isn’t here, I’ll take care of you.”

Mo Tingshen methodically wiped his hands, “Eat.”

Nan Jiaojiao thanked him.

She and Mo Tingshen were not close, had little to talk about, and she ate only two shrimps out of courtesy before placing them between herself and Ye Wanting.

Mo Tingshen happened to see this scene.

Interesting, he was still sitting here, yet the avoidance was so striking.

Mid-meal, Huo Linxi, bored, was scrolling through his phone, his social media feed filled with a string of car accident scenes.

“There was a car accident on Dusk Street, wow, looks like a car exploded, flames reaching to the sky.”

“Dusk Street?

Isn’t that just two streets away from here?”

“Wait, let me check.”

Huo Linxi zoomed in on the closest pic to the scene, and suddenly his face whitened.

“Brother Yan’s license plate!”

“Who?” Yaen Chi’s eyelids twitched!

Huo Linxi said, “Really, it’s Brother Yan’s car, he’s had an accident, look if you don’t believe me.”
