The drive back to the Villa was silent. Yue Ning stared out the window, her mind still reeling from the warning from the system.
Threat? Unknown? Everything was so confusing to her, and she hated that she was confused.
"What's wrong?" Hu Feng's voice brought her back from her thoughts. "You've been spacing out ever since the drive started. Do you have something bothering you? You know I'd always protect you."
Yue Ning turned to look at him, and she forced a smile to her lips.
"I'm fine... I'm just a bit shaken. Song Kai would not give up. That much I know about him." She answered, her words half-truth and half a lie.
Huo Feng smiled. Using his free hands, he held hers. "You don't have to worry. I know Song Kai wouldn't give up. But I wouldn't give him the chance to strike back."
Yue Ning's lips curved faintly. Maybe... just maybe this was what she needed. Someone's assurance.
Soon, they arrived at the villa, and Huo Yan was quick to meet them at the entrance.
