Capítulo 57: Chapter 57: Do you want to do it in the car...?

"...Thank you."

He sneered, looking down on her gratitude as if it were nothing.

Halfway there, Gu Nanqiao suddenly realized the route was wrong. She turned her head to look at the man beside her, her eyes filled with wariness, "Where are you taking me?"

"Shuiyun Garden."

It was the most expensive area in Lancheng, Gu Nanqiao guessed; it must be where he lived.

She frowned, "I want to go home."

"With you looking like this, how will you explain when you get back?" Huo Jingting kept his eyes on the road ahead, "Are you going to say someone tried to burn you alive, and that's why you're covered in gasoline?"

Of course she couldn't say that; she didn't want to worry her parents too much.

"Then I'll go back to Imperial Scenic Mansions." She compromised, not wanting to be with him at all.

Huo Jingting let out a cold laugh, "What if Fu Lingfeng is there?"

"..."

Gu Nanqiao found herself without a response, and ultimately, she seemed to concede to his will.
