Chapter 782: Chapter 762 Almost About to Kiss

On the drive back, Jiayi remained silent, resting her hand against her cheek, her elbow propped on the edge of the car window, looking as if she was admiring the scenery along the road.

Compared to her thin, kitten-like appearance a few days ago, she had gained some weight now, and her cheeks had more color, rosy and pink.

She had won the court case today, she was supposed to be happy.

Perhaps it was because, just outside the court, Boris had mentioned things from a few years ago in S Country, bringing up that man, which caused some ripples in her heart.

Nie Yixiao’s eyes flashed, and his right arm slid off the steering wheel, reaching out involuntarily to grasp her hand, "The case is over, it’s all right now."

Her slender hand was gripped by his large and slightly rough palm; she reacted reflexively with a sharp jerk!

Realizing immediately that this move might embarrass Nie Yixiao, she hurriedly said, "Brother Yixiao... I... I didn’t mean to, you reached out suddenly, and I got startled..."

He smiled indulgently with the corners of his slim lips twisted upwards, and his somewhat disappointed right hand returned to the steering wheel, continuing to drive.

She regretted her abrupt action and thought anxiously, Brother Yixiao must be angry now.

After all, he was just kindly holding her hand, anyone would be annoyed by being thrown off like that.

If it were that petty and domineering man, he probably would have given her a cold look by now, right?!

What was she thinking about? Why did his image pop up in her mind out of nowhere!?!

She bit her lower lip and pinched the outer side of her thigh forcefully.

The atmosphere in the car suddenly fell quiet.

She sneakily observed Nie Yixiao’s expression through the mirror.

His nose, chiseled as if by an axe, was so handsome it didn’t seem real.

He was just quietly looking ahead, driving seriously, as if he wasn’t angry.

She finally let out a small sigh of relief.

But then she heard his voice tinged with teasing, "Is there something dirty on my face? Maybe you could wipe it off for me."

Startled, she hadn’t expected him to notice that she was peeking at him through the mirror, and without hiding anything, she confessed, "No... I was just afraid you were angry."

With a "screech", the car tires ground against the pavement.

The car stopped at the entrance of Green Island Garden.

Her body lurched forward with the rhythm of the brakes, and before she could steady herself, she saw that he had already leaned over, his straight nose less than two centimeters from hers,

His unique, subtle masculine scent wafted over with his voice:

"Not angry. I can be patient."

She had just divorced, just escaped from that man’s clutches. He wouldn’t be so eager.

He would give her time to slowly digest the past and then gradually accept him.

Her face heated up, and without thinking, she unbuckled her seatbelt and shrank back slightly, "Zaizai is about to get out of school, I need to cook first, then pick him up..."

She was still like the little girl from his first love that he remembered.

As if driven by some invisible force, he leaned forward involuntarily, his arms bracing against the car door beside her, not letting her leave, his nose tip intentionally or unintentionally grazing her cheek.

Just then, the phone’s shrill ringtone pierced the silence!

Startled, as if realizing who was calling, she straightened up instinctively and grabbed her phone in a flurry.

Glancing at the caller ID, it was indeed...

"Brother Yixiao. I have something to do, I need to go first."

Jiayi quickly tidied her hair, then hurried out of the car in a fluster.

Nie Yixiao watched her as if she were under some kind of threat, his brow furrowed slightly, but he said nothing, turned the steering wheel, started the engine, and drove away.

Jiayi sighed with relief as she watched Nie Yixiao’s SUV disappear from view.

Just then, a familiar figure stepped out from another car and approached her, sounding quite displeased, "Miss Chu, have you forgotten the consequences of violating the agreement?"

It was Lawyer Yang.

The call she had just received was from him, warning her.

Indeed, Huo Zhenyang’s legal team was constantly monitoring her.

She didn’t know whether to be angry or to laugh, "I didn’t violate anything."

"Didn’t violate?" Lawyer Yang frowned, his expression suggesting disbelief as though saying, "Do you think I am a three-year-old child?", "Miss Chu, I was in the car behind, and I saw Mr. Nie get very close to you, almost as if he were about to... to kiss you."

She almost swore out loud!

Could she not have a bit of privacy?

She bit her lip and stood her ground, "You saw it wrong, Mr. Nie was just talking to me."

Lawyer Yang looked at her skeptically.

She took a deep breath and continued to meet Lawyer Yang’s gaze with an expression that said she would die before she admitted anything.

After a while, Lawyer Yang finally relented, "Well, we’ll let it go this time. I hope it won’t happen again, otherwise, I will have to report it to the Boss."

Watching Lawyer Yang leave, Jiayi breathed a sigh of relief and turned to walk towards Green Island Garden. She hadn’t gone far when she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Below the apartment building, a familiar figure with a small piece of luggage was sitting by the flowerbed.

A slender figure, long legs and a slim waist, curly long hair, big eyes and upturned lips, a doll-like beauty who was waiting for Jiayi’s return while daydreaming.

Jiayi was both shocked and delighted, "Anya?"

Liang Anya’s eyes lit up, and she rushed over to give Jiayi a tight hug, thoroughly examining her, "Are you okay? I just heard about your situation recently... I was scared to death! As soon as I heard, I rushed over from H City!"

Jiayi smiled, "It’s all right now, the trial ended smoothly today, I’m fine."

"But..." Liang Anya said, not looking pleased, hesitating.

Jiayi knew what she wanted to ask.

Since Anya had seen the news about her being involved in a homicide case, she must have also seen the news about her divorce from Huo Zhenyang.

She took the initiative to bring it up with a smile, "You want to ask about my divorce, right?"

Liang Anya nodded.

Jiayi playfully flicked Liang Anya’s nose, "It’s just a divorce. Is the sky going to fall?"

Seeing that Jiayi seemed alright and didn’t appear to want to talk about Huo Zhenyang, Liang Anya didn’t pursue the topic further.

Jiayi changed the subject and perked up with a slight smile, "Since you’ve come to Yunling this time, stay a while longer. Don’t be in a rush to leave."

Liang Anya nodded as if that had been her intention all along, "Mm, I’ve already booked a hotel..."

"What do you need a hotel for? Just stay at Green Island Garden. The house is big enough. Why would you need to go to a hotel?"

Liang Anya’s eyes showed a flash of something, and she demurred, "No need, I don’t want to disturb you."

Jiayi found this surprising; this wasn’t like Anya at all.

In the past, when Anya was staying in Yunling, she often visited Green Island Garden, treating it like her own home. She was always so bold and never shy.

Jiayi linked arms with Anya, "My dad and mom have just moved to their new place, so it’s just me and Zaizai. There are plenty of rooms here. How could you be disturbing us? Besides, you’d be great company for me and Zaizai. Zaizai always misses his ’Aunt Anya.’

Liang Anya still hesitated for a moment, "But..."

"Anya, is there something wrong?"

"No... nothing. Okay, then... I’ll stay at Green Island Garden." Liang Anya rallied her spirits.
