Chapter 77: Now... All She Has Left Are Villains
“It’s alright if you don’t want to say. Where do you live? Let me take you home.”
Night had already fallen, and it wasn’t safe for a girl to be out alone.
Home…
When she heard that word, Lin Nanxun’s face paled even more.
Her uncle didn’t want her anymore; she no longer had a home.
Now… all she had left was the villain…
But she didn’t know where the villain’s home was; no one had ever told her the exact address.
“I… don’t know.” She paused, then answered honestly.
“Don’t know?” Her reply surprised Qiao Yucheng.
Was there really someone who didn’t know where their home was?
As he looked at her in confusion, the girl suddenly seemed to recall something comforting, her delicate, soft voice gaining a hint of determination.
“But the villain will come to pick me up.” Lin Nanxun lifted her head; just thinking that the villain would come for her drove away her fear, and a smile appeared on her clean, pretty face.
The villain wouldn’t abandon her.
Qiao Yucheng was puzzled by her words.
“The villain?” He didn’t understand the name.
“Is he a bad person?”
She called him ‘villain,’ yet her whole expression changed at the mention of him.
Hearing Qiao Yucheng say the villain was a bad person, Lin Nanxun got flustered and hurriedly shook her head in denial.
“He’s a good person.”
“The best person in the world.”
Although the villain could be a little scary when he was angry, he treated her very, very well!
Listening to her explanation, Qiao Yucheng didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“The best villain?”
He couldn’t quite tell if the so-called villain was actually a villain or a good person.
But for now, it seemed that this person was someone she trusted—perhaps a family member?
Thinking this, Qiao Yucheng smiled knowingly and took out his phone.
“What’s your family member’s number? I’ll call them to check.”
“I don’t remember…” Lin Nanxun was stunned.
The villain’s number was saved in her phone, but in the rush of getting out of the car, she’d forgotten to take it with her and left it behind.
“Then how can you be sure your family can find you?” Qiao Yucheng looked helpless.
“The villain won’t leave me behind.”
When Zhou Bei left, he told her to wait in the car until he came back.
Though the car had already driven away, she believed Zhou Bei and the villain would find her.
So, all she needed to do was stay here.
“I’ll wait for him in the car,” Lin Nanxun said firmly.
As long as she waited in the car, she was certain the villain would come for her.
Seeing her unwavering determination, Qiao Yucheng was momentarily lost in thought.
Even her personality reminded him of Yu Mo…
If Yu Mo hadn’t had that accident years ago, she would probably be as beautiful as this girl, though Yu Mo’s face would likely be a little rounder.
Yu Mo’s face had always been plump and adorable when she was young…
Thinking of this, a hint of sadness crept into his eyes. He looked away from the girl, sighed softly, and kindly reminded her,
“But we’re about to get out of the car. Are you sure you want to stay here alone and wait?”
“It might snow tonight, and it’ll be very cold outside.”
Once the car’s engine was off, it wouldn’t be much warmer than outside.
The girl looked thin and frail; such a small figure couldn’t possibly withstand the winter night’s chill.
