Chapter 550: Chapter 550

Tan Shuya stood there, watching Xi Mohan and Ning Wan. Startled by Ning Wan’s words, she, who had spent many years abroad, was not very familiar with Xi Mohan and Ning Wan’s situation. She had only heard that Xi Mohan was originally involved with Ning Wan’s sister... Ning Yan’er.

What she hadn’t expected was to see the entanglement between Xi Mohan and Ning Wan.

As for Ning Wan, because of Lu Jingchen’s ex-wife Song Qiao, Tan Shuya didn’t have a fond feeling towards her. Especially since she felt that she had made some progress with Lu Jingchen tonight, only for Ning Wan to suddenly present a child belonging to Lu Jingchen and Song Qiao, infuriating her indeed.

Just as she was ready to enjoy the drama, she felt a cold gaze on her. Following the gaze, Xi Mohan was staring at her coldly. The next second, she heard the man’s voice, almost emotionless and indifferent, "Miss Tan, do you plan to stand here all night? Jingchen probably won’t come back tonight, you should go on about your business."

Although it was just an ordinary conversation, Tan Shuya perceived a threat in the man’s tone.

Feeling a chill in her heart, Tan Shuya knew better and immediately walked towards the Lu Family Mansion in her high heels.

Soon, only Ning Wan and Xi Mohan were left standing on the street, facing each other as if in a standoff.

But the expression on the man’s face was neither warm nor hot, whereas Ning Wan was full of anger and impatience.

The man also noticed the impatience on Ning Wan’s face, and his own became grim. He stepped forward, lowered his head to look at her, and spoke with a slightly husky voice, calmly asking, "Ning Wan, do you now regret meeting me?"

Hearing his words, Ning Wan was initially stunned and didn’t react.

Raising her eyes to look at the man firmly watching her, Ning Wan finally straightened her back as if she had completely snapped back to reality, feeling a trace of her own momentum returning.

She rubbed her other hand, which alleviated some of the soreness, and then facing Xi Mohan, she spoke deliberately and clearly, "I know there is no such thing as a pill for regret in this world, but if I were given another chance, Xi Mohan, I would rather not have met you more than a decade ago, let alone have fallen in love with you."

Xi Mohan’s body stiffened, the woman’s words echoing in his mind ’I know there is no such thing as a pill for regret in this world, but if I were given another chance, Xi Mohan, I would rather not have met you more than a decade ago, let alone have fallen in love with you.’

After Ning Wan finished speaking, she said no more, just stood there watching him, her face wearing a faint smile, yet distant.

When Xi Mohan’s assistant Xu Linfeng came out driving the car, Ning Wan and Xi Mohan were standing there in silence.

Ning Wan merely glanced and recognized it as Xi Mohan’s car; without a second thought, she turned to leave.

Xu Linfeng pulled up next to Xi Mohan, his gaze falling on Ning Wan who was gradually walking away. After a moment of hesitation, he decided to speak up, "President, Miss Ning... should we give her a ride back?"

Xi Mohan came to his senses and looked up at Ning Wan’s receding figure. Without any hesitation, his long legs wrapped in a suit coat, he started to chase after her.

Ning Wan had originally planned to walk to the bus station two kilometers away and take the bus back. There were still buses running at this hour, so she didn’t have to worry about not having a ride home.

She had just walked a little way when she heard the increasingly loud sound of a car engine behind her. Without looking back, in no time at all, her arm was grabbed by the man who caught up from behind, and she was pulled into a broad embrace.

The familiar masculine scent filled her nostrils. Even without turning her head, Ning Wan knew the man behind her was Xi Mohan.

Instantly, she struggled hard a few times and managed to break free from Xi Mohan’s embrace, but her arm was still firmly grasped by him, which infuriated her. She then spoke out coldly, "Xi Mohan, what are you doing?"

The man remained silent, while Xu Linfeng had already driven the car over to his side. He immediately half dragged and half pulled Ning Wan toward the car.

Xu Linfeng hurriedly got out of the car to help open the door, and thus Ning Wan was put into the car by the man.

Feeling suffocated inside, Ning Wan almost gnashed her teeth as she glared at the man sitting beside her and asked coldly, "Xi Mohan, what exactly do you want to do?"

Xi Mohan ordered Xu Linfeng to drive without a change in expression, then spoke to Ning Wan indifferently, "Taking you back."

Ning Wan, "...No need, I’ll just call a taxi."

As she spoke, she was about to take out her phone to call a taxi, but just at that moment her phone rang, which made her stunned for a moment. Her gaze fell on the phone screen and she realized it was a call from Shen Yi.

After Song Qiao left, she had asked Shen Yi to take extra care of Ning Wan.

Ning Wan didn’t refuse, for Shen Yi was a good person and had helped her a lot in the past. Even when she left, Shen Yi had assisted her in secret, preventing Xi Mohan from finding her.

If not for... the loss of the child, she probably wouldn’t have encountered Xi Mohan now.

Xi Mohan’s eyes also fell on Ning Wan’s phone screen, where the bright characters ’Shen Yi’ instantly informed him who it was.

Instantaneously, the man’s face turned incredibly dark. Just as Ning Wan was about to slide the screen to answer the call, he stretched out his long arm, snatching the phone from Ning Wan’s hand. After taking another glance at the screen, he rolled down the window and tossed the phone out.

Ning Wan, "...", she turned her head just in time to see the man throwing her phone out.

By the time she reacted, she lunged trying to take it back, "Xi Mohan, have you gone mad?" New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵

However, her actions were slower than the man’s, and her phone was thrown out of the car window, the sound of it hitting the ground clearly audible.

Ning Wan looked on dumbfounded as her phone was tossed out by the man, her anger erupting as she cursed, "Xi Mohan, have you lost your mind? That’s my phone, do you think you’re so great just because you’re rich?"

Xi Mohan, this lunatic!

Yet, the man remained calm. He stretched out his hand and grabbed hers, restraining her in his embrace, while his deep eyes steadily gazed at her face. With a husky and somber voice, he retorted instead of answering, "Do you like Shen Yi?"
