But now, he only felt that he was a joke.
“Let’s go, I’ll take you back.” Mo Yongheng retracted his gaze, the distant feeling he exuded becoming evident as he turned to walk to the carpark.
Just when he had taken a step out, a slender hand grabbed onto the edge of his shirt all of a sudden.
Zheng Yan’s voice was rather low but her tone was meek.
“I wouldn’t mind other people misunderstanding our relationship. Anyway, my reputation has long been ruined almost completely by my brother. I’m just worried that you’d mind. I remember that you’ve never had a single dating rumor with any woman at all…”
His love life was so clean that reporters had even begun to speculate that he was gay.

Mo Yongheng abruptly stopped in his tracks.
A surprised look flashed past his eyes as he turned to look at her.
So, she was intentionally keeping a distance with him as she was worried that he would mind. That’s why she wanted to go back to explain for his sake?
“I don’t mind,” Mo Yongheng muttered without hesitation.
Receiving her look of astonishment, he suddenly realized what he had said and coughed lightly before correcting himself, “I meant, I’m just like you. I don’t care about what others think of me.”
“That’s good then. My car isn’t in the carpark. I parked it on the roadside. Come with me!” Zheng Yan grabbed onto his hand again and pulled him to the roadside.
Upon seeing the sports car, Mo Yongheng was about to open the car door and get in when Zheng Yan suddenly stopped him.
“You just left the police station, you can’t just get in like that. Stand here and don’t move, wait for me a moment!”
Zheng Yan then opened the car door and crept in. The next moment, she took out a huge basin that contained a few pieces of red-colored paper. It seemed like some sort of talisman.
She then placed the basin in front of Mo Yongheng in a serious manner.
“This is the talisman I specially went to get for you. You got locked up all because you’re too pig-headed. Now that you finally got released, you have to step over this fire basin…”
Zheng Yan continued to nag while she used a lighter to start a flame inside the basin with the pieces of red papers.
The glow of the red flame reflected on her porcelain-white face.
She stood up with a wide grin as she hurried him, “Mo Yongheng, what are you waiting for? Quickly step over the fire basin! It’ll get rid of the bad luck and bless you. Don’t turn back to look either, step over it and quickly get into the car!”
“…”

Upon hearing that she had specially gone to get a talisman for him, his gaze had flickered slightly.
Looking straight at the fire basin before him and her extremely solemn face, it was as if his heart had been poked by something. It hurt a little but felt completely sweet with happiness…
When his eyes met her expectant gaze, he stepped over the fire basin with his slender legs and lowered his head as he entered the car.
He then looked out of the car window and watched her use a large bottle of mineral water to put out the flame in the fire basin, then used a rubbish bag to throw the whole thing into the bin.
“Right, there’s this as well!”
Once Zheng Yan got into the car, she immediately reached out to take a food container from under her seat.
“I asked the butler, he said that just stepping over a fire basin isn’t enough. You have to eat a bowl of pig trotter noodles. I don’t know how to make it, so I got the kitchen to make one for you and pack it. Hurry and eat it. Even if you don’t like it you have to eat a few bites at least!”
With that, she opened the cover of the food container.
The fragrant pig trotter noodles were steaming hot.
He could tell that she had packed it and immediately brought it here to him.
“Can you use a fork to eat noodles? I might have forgotten to bring a pair of chopsticks, there’s only a fork here…”
