Annie was in a daze, lost in her thoughts, so when she heard that there was a problem with the car, she opened the door and got out without a second thought.

Mu Xiaoxiao saw her, and she nudged and urged Ye Sijue, “Get out!”

Even though Ye Sijue was sick, he still had his wits about him and could tell that there was something fishy going on with Xiaoxiao and Yin Shaojie.

Mu Xiaoxiao opened the door and got out of the car. Then she walked over to the front pa.s.senger seat, opened the door, and forced Ye Sijue out of the car.

Ye Sijue glared at her.

Standing to the side, Annie was dazed, obviously unaware of what was happening.

Mu Xiaoxiao sat in the front pa.s.senger seat, slammed the door shut, and said to them, “You two wait here. We’ll go find help and we’ll be back soon!”

With that said, she urged Yin Shaojie to drive.

Ye Sijue frowned slightly. He had already realized what the two were playing at.

He looked at Annie beside him. Perhaps because of his illness, his response was much slower.

Just when he was going to stop Xiaoxiao, the car started and drove away.

“Hey!” Ye Sijue shouted at the car as it drove off, but yelling agitated his throat and he immediately broke out into a coughing fit.

“Stop shouting so loudly. Look at you. You’re coughing again!” Annie said.

Ye Sijue turned to look at her.

Annie froze for a moment before saying awkwardly, “Well… I’m not caring about you. I was just…”

“I know. You don’t have to explain,” Ye Sijue said mildly.

Interrupted by Ye Sijue, Annie looked embarra.s.sed. Their eyes met and awkwardness filled the air.

No one was talking.

Annie took a few steps back, drawing some distance between them.

However, Ye Sijue walked up and stood by her side.

Annie looked down as she instinctively tried to move away again, but then she heard Ye Sijue say in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “Stop moving. Just stand there.”

She halted.

After a while, she then realized that he was trying to s.h.i.+eld her from the wind.

The wind at night was very cold. The wind had been blowing towards her, so she felt cold initially.

However, she was starting to feel cold again.

Reminded that he was still sick, Annie finally looked up at him. Seeing that the jacket he was wearing was pretty thick, she felt relieved.

She rubbed her hands and asked, “Why isn’t Xiaoxiao back yet? Where did they go?”

She still hadn’t realized why Xiaoxiao and Yin Shaojie left so suddenly after getting them out of the car earlier.

Ye Sijue scanned the road from one end to the other. There were no lights on the road besides the street lamps lighting up the road.

“I don’t think they’ll be back,” he said bluntly.

“Ah?” Annie was startled. “Why? Where did they go?”

Ye Sijue looked down at her. “You still don’t get it? They purposely left us here.”

Annie was speechless.

Why would they do that?

“Come on. We can’t stay here.” Ye Sijue thought for a moment and decided to keep walking. There was not a single building in sight for at least a few kilometers.

If Mu Xiaoxiao and Yin Shaojie were not going to come back and pick them up, then they would be standing there forever.

Forever…

Ye Sijue looked at Annie again.
