Ma Haodong smiled but didn’t say anything. He then grabbed Xiao Yuqian’s hand and guided her away from the restaurant.
“Hey! Where are you taking me?” Xiao Yuqian scolded as she pulled her hand back.
Ma Haodong stopped and pulled a set of car keys out. He pushed the button on it and unlocked a car near them.
Xiao Yuqian turned and saw her previous car sitting not far from her.
She turned to Ma Haodong like she’d seen a ghost and asked, “Why… Why is my car here?”
“That? That’s my car now.”
Ma Haodong smiled and pulled open the shotgun door for Xiao Yuqian.
Xiao Yuqian finally realized what had happened after she got into the car.
The one who had bought her car for the full amount without requesting anything was Ma Haodong.
He’d spent quite a small fortune to help her save her father.
Xiao Yuqian was touched by what he did for her.
“Why? Why did you do it?”
Ma Haodong helped buckle her up and said, “Would you believe me if I said I’m repaying a debt?”
“What debt?”
Xiao Yuqian could not recall meeting Ma Haodong before.
“You might’ve forgotten it because it happened quite a long time ago,” Ma Haodong started to explain. “I was held prisoner under the Five Elements Mountain 500 years ago, and a woman with a sacred sword walked past it…”
Realizing that Ma Haodong was playing with her, her face turned red.
“Oh! Shut up! You think you’re a monkey? No, no, even monkeys are better than you,” Xiao Yuqian scolded. [1]
“Fine, fine,” Ma Haodong sighed. “It was a long time ago when I was lonely, you gave me candy. I’ve always remembered you from that time onwards.”
“Yeah, whatever. Just drive,” Xiao Yuqian said, thinking that Ma Haodong was making things up again.
“That’s the truth.”
“Uh-huh.”
Xiao Yuqian still thought that Ma Haodong was joking. The memory of her giving that candy to him was already long gone from her mind.
“Wait, do you know where the place the company set you up at is?” Xiao Yuqian asked.
Since she hadn’t seen the contract yet, she had no idea where it was.
“Yup.” Ma Haodong nodded.
In the end, the car stopped at a lake facing mansion located in the affluent area next to Jade Lake.
“This is the place?”
“How is it? Not bad, right?”
Not bad? Xiao Yuqian cursed silently. This is unheard of!
The only explanation Xiao Yuqian could find was that her boss and Ma Hangcheng were really close. Or else there was no way the company would arrange for Ma Haodong to stay at such a luxurious mansion.
What she didn’t know was that the mansion was actually Ma Haodong’s to begin with.
He got it from his father for his 18th birthday, and it would serve as his home if he got married in the future.
But now, Ma Haodong chose to stay there with someone else.
He opened the door, and the lights lit up automatically.
“After you, Miss Xiao.”
