Chapter 17 Acting

• Inside the Xi Household.
• An emotionless act was completed.
• Si Weiwei put the top half of her clothes back on. It turned out, Xi Zhiheng didn't actually touch her.
• "Young Master Xi, what you did will hurt her." Si Weiwei had experienced many things in life , so she saw the situation clearly. Xi Zhiheng had invited her over, left a gap in the door, and deliberately told her to moan when he heard footsteps approaching. He was obviously doing it for Yan Anmo to see.
• Xi Zhiheng did not make a sound. One cold glance was enough to make Si Weiwei fall silent.
• "Young Master Xi, the Young Miss ran out crying a moment ago. She didn't take an umbrella with her. It's been a while and she hasn't been back. Her biggest fear is rainy weather, but we don't know where she's gone!" Auntie Liu urgently ran up the stairs. She did not dare to enter Xi Zhiheng's bedroom, so she simply shouted from the top of the stairs.
• Xi Zhiheng's heart tensed up. Damn it!
• Concern appeared in his eyes and Si Weiwei noticed it before he managed to conceal his feelings.
• "Young Master Xi, why don't I go with you to find her?"
• "No, I will get someone to take you home." Xi Zhiheng put on his clothes and left the bedroom. He had a faint feeling that something would happen to Yan Anmo.
• After Auntie Liu's cries from the top of the stairs, practically everyone heard that Yan Anmo had ran out and they were all thrown into a panic. Whenever something happened to Yan Anmo, Xi Zhiheng would act out of character, lose his temper, and implicate a lot of people.
• "Get the car ready!" Xi Zhiheng grabbed a coat from Auntie Liu's hands and suddenly remembered that Yan Anmo was dressed in a night gown. The rain was falling hard outside. What if she got sick from the cold?
• The more Xi Zhiheng thought about it, the more regretful he felt. He had planned the entire process, but he forgot to consider Yan Anmo's personality!
• Yan Anmo ran through the streets. Her stomach was originally painful because of her period, but with the added rain, her face turned pale and lost all color.
• Her white night gown was completely dirty and she was both cold and uncomfortable.
• All of a sudden...
• A black dog came out of the bushes beside her and hit her leg!
• The unexpected shock made her cover her mouth in surprise. She then opened her eyes wide as fear slowly consumed her body.
• "Woof!" the dog was so fierce, it exposed its teeth and barked a few times at Yan Anmo.
• Tears began to fall from Yan Anmo's eyes. She did not dare to make a move, afraid that the dog would rush over and bite her.
• "Yan Anmo?" Suddenly, someone called her name. A car stopped on the other side of the road and the back window lowered. It was Zhang Cheng.
• Yan Anmo looked over, pleading for help with her gaze. Without a second thought, Zhang Cheng rushed over and scared the dog away with a rock.
• "You're fine now, don't be afraid." Zhang Cheng was in such a hurry, he forgot to grab his umbrella. When he saw that Yan Anmo was soaked by the rain, he removed his jacket and covered her with it.
• "What are you doing?"
• "Are you OK?"
• "Get in the car first. The rain is really heavy."
• Yan Anmo shook her head as she said weakly, "Thank you, I'm fine. Hurry back."
• "Cheng, why aren't you getting back in the car?" a woman's voice sounded from the car. It was Zhang Cheng's mother.
• Mother Zhang grabbed an umbrella and stepped out of the car. When she saw Yan Anmo, her motherly instincts kicked in and she said with concern, "Why is this child so wet? Hurry and get in the car. I'll take you to change into a set of clean clothes."
• Yan Anmo didn't know how to reject the woman, so she ended up boarding the car.
• "Child, are you Cheng's classmate?" Mother Zhang let Yan Anmo sit in the back seat while she moved to the front. As she snuck a glance through the rear view mirror, she discovered that the child was quite good-looking. How likable.
• "Oh, Mom, stop asking so many questions--" Before Zhang Cheng finished speaking, the car suddenly braked.
• "Madam, it seems like that car is acting intentionally," the driver was a little stunned. This was the first time he experienced a car blatantly blocking another car, and that car was currently stopped horizontally in front of him.
• Yan Anmo heard the noise and looked over. Her body felt a little numb. She was extremely familiar with the car in front of them. It was a car that belonged to the Xi Family.
• Xi Zhiheng did not show his face. Instead, Housekeeper Liu got out of the car, approached, and knocked on Yan Anmo's window.
• Those inside the car, looked towards Yan Anmo. She bit her lip and tears began to fall. But, even so, she refused to lower her window.
• "Yan Anmo, who is he to you?" Zhang Cheng asked.
• "I don't know him," Yan Anmo was determined not to leave the car. No matter what, she was not returning to the Xi Household.
• The driver understood that the identity of the car in front was one that he could not afford to offend, so he secretly unlocked the car door. As soon as Housekeeper Liu heard the noise, he tried to open the door, but Yan Anmo held onto it with all her might.
• "Miss, hurry and come home with me!" Housekeeper Liu was, of course, stronger that Yan Anmo. But, he was afraid of hurting her, so he did not dare to use too much force.
• "I'm not going back!"
• Xi Zhiheng was sitting in the car. When he saw that Housekeeper Liu was failing to complete his task, frustration grew in his heart, and his gaze turned impatient.
• Eventually, he got out of the car. His strong presence stunned Yan Anmo. With a cold expression, he opened the door without hesitation, leaned over, carried Yan Anmo out, and brought her back to his car without a word.
• "Yan Anmo!" Zhang Cheng wanted to run out of his car, but Housekeeper Liu stopped him.
