Chapter 1377: Deliberately Hiding From Him
Li Ruochu headed for a nearby grocery store for supplies. She left the building without noticing the car that followed her.
She was about to cross the street to the store on the other side.
But she was engaged in her thoughts and failed to watch out for the traffic.
A car rushed by and almost hit her. The driver cursed, “Watch out! Silly woman!”
Li Ruochu was shocked and realized she was crossing on a red light.
Seeing her almost being hit, Helian Qingyu was scared into a cold sweat. Couldn’t she watch properly when walking?
What the hell is she thinking about?
He could no longer stay aside. Putting on sunglasses he got out of the car, he ran after her.
But the light turned red again. He was stopped, while Li Ruochu had already gotten to the other side.
“Li Ruochu!” Helian Qingyu yelled. She seemed not to have heard him. He kept yelling but it was too loud in the traffic.
He saw her turn around, but was not sure if she had heard him.
Li Ruochu seemed to have heard someone calling her name. She turned back and almost saw a tall figure on the other side of the road.
She thought it was Helian Qingyu at first sight.
Could that be him?
No way!
She had seen him on TV just now. He should have been in a meeting with the leaders of Zstan now.
It must be her imagination. Crazy her.
But if the first time was her imagination, then what about the following calling?
She listened carefully and did hear Helian Qingyu’s voice. Through the busy traffic, she was able to confirm that it was him.
She had not been expecting him to be here.
Why is he coming after me?
Shouldn’t he have been with his fiancee, Lan Ling-Er?
A long bus passed by and blocked their vision. When the bus was gone, so was Li Ruochu.
She was no longer there on the other side of the street. The light turned green again and Helian Qingyu ran across the street to look for her.
How fast could a pregnant woman run?
Helian Qingyu thought that she must have heard him calling and seen him there. Now she was deliberately hiding from him.
He ran to each direction but still could not find Li Ruochu.
That dreadful woman! It was not the time to play hide and seek. He had a tight agenda and had to fly to the next state the following morning.
He had no idea when he could come to Zstan again.
Helian Qingyu searched back and forth around the place where she had disappeared. Li Ruochu hid behind the model hanger of a clothing shop nearby and saw clearly what Helian Qingyu did.
He kept searching for her back and forth, and seemed very worried.
She did want to step out. But thinking of how he had treated her in the past she lost the courage again.
Anyhow, she was still afraid of that dangerous man. She just wanted to stay away from him and raise the child by herself. She wanted nothing to do with him any further.
