Ye Anhao’s face changed; she secretly comforted herself, telling herself that it was just a coincidence that this black SUV was parked here and had nothing to do with her.
However, just as she was preparing to leave, the car window suddenly rolled down, revealing a handso face full of determination.
Ye Anhao’s heart trembled violently, and her first reaction was to escape.
But at that mont, a cheerful voice suddenly ca from behind, "Brother, why are you here?"
Instinctively, Ye Anhao turned around and saw that Ouyang Yifeng had already arrived behind her, but his gaze was fixed on the man inside the car.
Did Ouyang Yifeng just call the man inside the car?
Ye Anhao suddenly had a bad premonition. Sure enough, the next second, the man’s thin lips moved.
"Here to handle so matters."
"You’re here to give a lecture at our school, right? So the person those fanatics were talking about was you." Ouyang Yifeng said, his eyes shifting and landing on Ye Anhao.
"So you were here. Made look for you for so long. Aren’t you giving tutoring today?"
"I... I forgot," Ye Anhao stamred.
Ouyang Yifeng thought Ye Anhao was just passing by and didn’t notice her unusual behavior. After all, she was usually so quiet too, and would sotis stutter when thinking about things.
Ouyang Che’s gaze fell on the two of them, noticing their intimate interaction. He couldn’t help but frown, his eyes turning a bit colder. But in the next mont, he regained his usual composure.
He glanced coldly at Ye Anhao and asked in a deep voice, "Who is this?"
Ouyang Yifeng grabbed Ye Anhao’s arm and brought her in front of Ouyang Che with a smile, "Almost forgot to introduce her. Brother, she’s my classmate, Ye Anhao."
"Ye Anhao?" The man’s lips curved into a faint smile, his deep voice resonating lowly, "That’s a good na."
Clearly, those were words of praise, but to Ye Anhao’s ears, they made her scalp tingle. She even felt that the man’s voice was sowhat cold.
Ouyang Yifeng also sensed sothing off in the man’s tone, but couldn’t pinpoint what it was. He thought he was overthinking—this was the first ti his cousin and Ye Anhao had t; what conflicts could there be?
"Have you eaten?" the man asked.
"Not yet."
"Then join us."
"Sure, it’s been a while since we had a good al together. But later, I still have to tutor. Can Ye Anhao join us?" Ouyang Yifeng turned to look at Ye Anhao.
Ye Anhao was taken aback, quickly saying, "It’s too much trouble; I better go back first. I’ll tutor you tomorrow?"
But at that mont, the man spoke indifferently, "An extra set of utensils is no trouble."
Ye Anhao thought to herself, he may not find it troubleso, but she certainly did.
Ouyang Yifeng didn’t know what Ye Anhao was thinking. He just wanted to introduce Ye Anhao to his family and insisted. "My brother said it’s not a hassle. It’s just a al. Ye Anhao, join us."
"But, I..."
"No buts. Didn’t you say persistence is key in doing things, and we shouldn’t give up halfway? Learning is the sa; you can’t skip a day. If you slack off today, all past efforts will be wasted." As he spoke, Ouyang Yifeng grabbed Ye Anhao’s arm, pulling her towards the car.
Ye Anhao was inherently weak, and under Ouyang Che’s watchful eyes, she didn’t dare to resist, fearing he might think she was guilty of sothing. Thus, she was pulled into the car without further resistance.
The car’s interior was spacious and luxurious, with comfortable leather seats, but Ye Anhao felt claustrophobic. Sitting in the leather seat, she felt as if she were sitting on pins and needles. Ouyang Che’s presence was so overpowering that even with Ouyang Yifeng between them, she felt suffocated.
She regretted not insisting earlier. Even if so commotion had ensued, it would have been better than sitting in this car on edge. She feared if the man revealed their secret to Ouyang Yifeng, what the consequences might be. Although she was indifferent, it wasn’t as if she had no conscience. She could hardly face Ouyang Yifeng if he learned the truth.
Fortunately, once they were in the car, the man ignored her, engaging in casual conversation with Ouyang Yifeng.
"Grandfather was talking about you the other day, asking when you’d visit him." Ouyang Che said calmly.
"Soon, after the final exams, I’ll go visit them. Grandfather used to say I didn’t study well. This ti, I’ll visit him with good grades." Ouyang Yifeng replied.
"I heard from your parents that your grades have improved a lot recently."
"Yes, it’s been a leap forward," Ouyang Yifeng proudly said, "How about it, brother? Aren’t I great?"
Ouyang Che smiled and said nothing, but it was a form of acknowledgnt. This was rare because, in Ouyang Yifeng’s mory, Ouyang Che hardly ever smiled or praised anyone.
Feeling even more proud, Ouyang Yifeng turned to Ye Anhao and said, "It’s all thanks to her."
Ye Anhao, who had been sitting quietly, suddenly beca tense again when ntioned by Ouyang Yifeng. Although she didn’t look at Ouyang Che, she could feel his sharp gaze on her.
Ouyang Che’s eyes were scrutinizing. He initially thought Ye Anhao was just a vain high school student, but her academic achievents were impressive.
However, sotis academic success doesn’t an much. If their eting was a coincidence, was Ye Anhao’s closeness to Ouyang Yifeng also unintentional?
His cousin’s prominent family status in E City was exceptional, and Ouyang Yifeng was the only son. Narrowing his eyes, the man thought things might not be so simple and this girl wasn’t as harmless as she appeared.
Maybe, Ye Anhao was drawn to Ouyang Yifeng because of his family background.
So young yet so calculating. This woman was remarkable, but Ouyang Che couldn’t allow her to stay near his cousin.
The car finally stopped in front of a private restaurant. By its decor, Ye Anhao could easily tell the food here wasn’t cheap. But no matter how delicious, she did not want to eat here.
She looked at Ouyang Yifeng with a pleading gaze, mouthing, "I shouldn’t eat with you guys."
Ouyang Yifeng quickly understood her aning but didn’t let go of her hand. He mouthed back to her.
"Don’t worry, my brother doesn’t bite."
