Ye Wan continued to call Gu Yunting, but the call still wouldn't go through. She didn't know which room he was in and felt quite annoyed. Turning, she walked out of the hotel.
Yan Haojue had been resting with his eyes closed in the car. He opened them when the car stopped, and a woman's figure appeared in his sight. Her familiar profile sent a jolt through him.
Ye Wan had already taken a taxi and left the hotel. Yan Haojue reacted immediately and instructed the driver, "Follow that car ahead."
The woman from earlier had completely overlapped with the image in his dreams!
Could it be her!
There were hardly any cars on the road, and the taxi was driving fast. Yan Haojue's car followed closely, which made it seem rather conspicuous.
The driver kept looking back at the luxury car following them. Seeing that it was still tailing them, he became a little flustered and asked Ye Wan, "Miss, there's a luxury car following us. Is it tracking you?"
The driver was self-aware; he was a nobody, not worthy of being followed by a luxury car.
However, the beautiful young woman in the back, who looked like a fairy, was different. It was normal for such a car to follow her.
Ye Wan looked back after the driver spoke. It was a car similar to Gu Yunting's, but the license plate was different. Ye Wan frowned, unsure of what was happening.
"Don't mind him," Ye Wan immediately took out her phone to send a message to Gu Yunting.
"A car is following me."
"I'll send someone over immediately." Gu Yunting replied almost instantly. Ye Wan was speechless. He refused to answer her calls, but as long as she said she was in danger, he would reply at the first opportunity.
Ye Wan suddenly felt angry. This man clearly still cared about her, yet he insisted on acting as if he didn't care anymore. Was he trying to hone his acting skills to win an Oscar?
In the end, Yan Haojue's car was stopped by bodyguards sent by Gu Yunting, and the taxi Ye Wan was in successfully lost him, returning home safely.
Yet, Ye Wan still felt very angry.
Yan Haojue was a little surprised, but not entirely. Did this woman possess such capabilities? It made sense; if she hadn't been capable, how could she have slept with him and then escaped from under his nose? He had searched the entire world and couldn't find her.
This time, he vowed not to let her escape again!
He hadn't expected her to still be in Jing Shi. He had searched for her in Jing Shi for a month back then. When he couldn't find her, he left, assuming she had also left long ago. Therefore, he had been searching elsewhere all these years and had never returned to this place.
Could she have been living here all along?
Yan Haojue suddenly felt excited. The obsession he had sought for twenty years had suddenly appeared. He could never forget her face – her incredibly beautiful profile, like a fairy. Back then, she had been very playful, which had made him... deeply intoxicated.
As long as she was in Jing Shi, he could find her even if he had to search every corner of the city.
...
The bodyguard reported to Gu Yunting that the person tracking Ye Wan was Yan Haojue, the head of the Yan family. Gu Yunting was somewhat surprised. Why would Yan Haojue be tracking Ye Wan?
Yan Jiayi had previously told him that her father, Yan Haojue, had arrived in Jing Shi and asked if he wanted to meet him. He had felt it was completely unnecessary.
Should he meet the "Sea Overlord" now? And see what his intentions were towards Ye Wan?
Hua Rong was running out of time. Having been by Gu Yunting's side for so many years, he rarely even gave her a direct glance, treating her like a tool. This was something she was most unwilling to admit.
