Chapter 793:1 Have Someone I Like

Editor: Henyee Translations

Perhaps it was because such a straightforward praise caught An Nuo off guard, so when she heard it, she was stunned for a second before stumbling out her answer.

“1 just came according to my mother’s wishes. I didn’t expect to encounter such

a thing.”

At this point, An Nuo’s tone was filled with grievance.

She couldn’t tell her mother what had happened today. After all, if Jiang Xia found out that she had encountered such a thing after coming out, she would probably blame herself. An Nuo didn’t want that to happen.

However, the injuries she suffered today and that person’s rude att.i.tude still made An Nuo feel a little uncomfortable that she couldn’t confide in anyone. At this moment, she couldn’t help but reveal some emotions in front of Murong

Chen.

“Looks like you won’t accept him,” Murong Chen replied matter-of-factly.

An Nuo nodded and shook her head hesitantly. “Actually, before I came to this restaurant, I had already decided to reject him.”

“Huh?” Murong Chen couldn’t hear what she said clearly, so he looked up.

An Nuo met his straight gaze. She originally wanted to say something but didn’t dare to say it, but for some reason, she blurted it out, as if a gust of courage was silently pushing her from behind.

“I already have someone I like.”

And he was right in front of her.

An Nuo didn’t say the last sentence.

Perhaps it was because her courage lost its effect halfway through, or perhaps it was because of Murong Chen’s straightforward and puzzled gaze that she couldn’t help but feel timid. She was afraid of being rejected, so An Nuo didn’t say it too clearly.

When Murong Chen heard this, he was silent for a long time. Then, he lowered his head and continued rubbing. However, his movements did not seem to be as carefree as before.

“There’s nothing bad about following your own wishes,” he said calmly.

The tone of his words was too calm, so no one could guess what he was thinking.

Ever since An Nuo finished saying that, her heart had been pounding like a drum. Although it was not an exaggeration, she felt the vibration and nervousness in her chest being transmitted to her limbs. Even her fingertips became slightly cold and hot.

Then, the two of them didn’t speak again.

Murong Chen didn’t say a word. After ma.s.saging An Nuo’s wrist, he slowly stood up. After bandaging her hand briefly, he wiped away the medicine on his palm.

“I’ve only dealt with it briefly first, but if you’re worried, you still have to go to the hospital for a detailed checkup.”

Murong Chen reminded her before hesitating. After cleaning up, he looked at

An Nuo, who had also started to get up.

“Why don’t I take you to the hospital?” He asked for her opinion.

Actually, Murong Chen wanted to send An Nuo to the hospital to take a look. Although it was only a small injury, it was always more comfortable to recover faster. However, thinking that it was already a little late and that he didn’t know if An Nuo had other arrangements later, he asked politely first.

“…I originally had an arrangement, but it’s gone now.” An Nuo joked, trying to liven up the atmosphere a little as she shook her wrist.

Just now, when Murong Chen was at the last step of bandaging, she partic.i.p.ated in tying a small bow herself. Now, it was swaying on her wrist. It was also a little cute, making the white bandage not so cold.

Originally, An Nuo planned to continue working after meeting Bai Anyang. In the end, she didn’t expect such a thing to happen, causing the subsequent filming to be delayed. Hence, when she was waiting for Murong Chen to go out and bring something back, An Nuo found an opportunity to send a message to her manager to inform him.

After all, it was an accident, so the manager couldn’t say much about this. Hence, after knowing this, he expressed concern for An Nuo and hurriedly arranged the follow-up to communicate with the others.

An Nuo stood up. “There’s no need for the hospital. I plan to go home and rest first.”

With such an injury to her wrist, it was not easy for her to do anything else. She could only go back and read the script more. Coincidentally, there was still an audition in two days. It was not a bad idea to take this opportunity to study it.

“I’ll send you back. Coincidentally, I don’t have any plans tonight.” Murong Chen picked up his coat calmly and walked out of the private room with An

Nuo.

In fact, he had no intention of letting An Nuo decline.

An Nuo looked at the other party’s back that had already taken half a step forward. She could only suppress the joy in her heart and pretend to be calm as she agreed. Then, she reached out to take her bag.

However, her hand was injured, so it was inconvenient for her to carry it. Therefore, after Murong Chen turned around and realized this, he took the initiative to take An Nuo’s bag into his hand.

“I’ll help you carry this. My car is at the entrance of the shop.” Murong Chen pointed at a spot outside the door. There was a black and gray car parked there. It looked low-key and luxurious, but if one looked carefully, they would realize that it was not cheap.

An Nuo nodded randomly, still a little distracted.

After she said that she had someone she liked, Murong Chen seemed to have

no response.

An Nuo was a little concerned about this. When she walked beside the other party, her eyes would glance at Murong Chen from time to time, as if she wanted to see something from his expressionless face, such as the thoughts hidden in the depths of his heart. Unfortunately, all of this was useless.

Seeing that she couldn’t find any flaws at all, An Nuo gave up on this action not long after and walked out obediently. After the other party opened the car door, she sat in the front pa.s.senger seat.

At this moment, it was almost dusk to the evening rush hour, so there were cars driving everywhere by the roadside. From time to time, they could hear irritable sirens.

The sky was fiery red, making it easy for people to get lost in the color. It was so difficult to notice the flashes of light from the flower beds not far from the restaurant.

After Murong Chen sent An Nuo to the car, he turned around and returned to the driver’s seat. He started the car and prepared to return to the apartment.

The benefits of being a neighbor were reflected at this moment. He was extremely familiar with the route. He didn’t even need the navigation to find the fastest way home.

However, Murong Chen, who had always liked to be quiet, finally realized that sometimes, it was not a good thing if the soundproofing of the car was too good. At this moment, the excessive silence made him a little distracted. Murong Chen was actually not as calm as An Nuo thought. His coldness was only on the surface. When his hand turned the steering wheel, his thoughts couldn’t help but jump to the words An Nuo had mentioned just now.

The person she liked.

These four words lingered in his heart, as if they were reminding Murong Chen of something at all times, but he couldn’t figure them out.

An extremely strange and unprecedented feeling filled his chest, making Murong Chen unable to say what it was. It puzzled him and made him care.

“I already have someone I like.”

When this sentence came out of An Nuo’s mouth, Murong Chen couldn’t deny that his mind went blank for a moment. Then, he began to think about who the other party liked.

Even though he didn’t know the reason for this, Murong Chen couldn’t control his thoughts.

The previous proposals and information no longer seemed to have the ability to attract him. They were thrown to a dark corner alone..
