Lu Ke took his hand away as soon as the danger was over.

He apologized to Wen Li with a bit of guilt, "I'm sorry, I was in a hurry and didn't pay attention to the situation."

It was only after Wen Li heard the sound of a motorcycle whizzing past her that she realized she had almost been in a car accident.

She was so scared that her face turned pale. She tried to pretend to be calm and thanked Lu Ke, "Thank you, Brother Lu Ke. You saved my life."

Lu Ke looked at her pale face and was a little worried. However, due to the gender difference, he couldn't act too intimately. He just asked her with concern, "It's not a life-saving gesture, it's just a small favor. But you look so pale, were you hit just now?"

Wen Li shook his head, "It's okay, I was just scared."

She sighed and said sadly, "I've been pretty unlucky lately. It's not even my zodiac year, so why am I so unlucky?"

Her cheeks puffed up a little, and she looked very cute when she sighed with her lips pursed. Lu Ke resisted the urge to ruffle her hair, and joked with her with a smile, "If you really feel that your luck is not good, come find me when you return to Hai City. I know a temple that is very effective. I'll take you there to burn some incense and get rid of the bad luck."

Wen Li didn't really believe in ghosts and gods, but she didn't mind burning incense and worshipping Buddha, so she agreed . "Okay, I'll find you when I get back. I still owe you a meal."

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard someone sneer behind her.

She turned her head and saw Huo Yuanchen standing not far from her, with a cold expression and a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

Seeing her looking over, he smiled and said, "You guys chat about your own things, don't pay attention to me."

Wen Li didn't intend to pay attention to him and looked away.

But Lu Ke was afraid that Huo Yuanchen would misunderstand, so he hurriedly said, "If there is nothing else, I will leave first."

Before Wen Li could speak, Huo Yuanchen spoke in a clear and cold tone, "Then I won't send you off."

The tone was odd, and anyone could tell something was wrong.

Lu Ke smiled apologetically at Wen Li, and without waiting for Wen Li to speak, he hurriedly said goodbye and left.

As soon as he left, Huo Yuanchen said meaningfully, "You didn't find him abroad, but once you returned to China, you two are quite destined to meet here."

Wen Li was already holding back her breath, and his words made her even angrier. She glared at him and said, "Why do you care who I'm destined to be with? As long as it's not with you, it's fine."

Huo Yuanchen opened his mouth and was about to speak when Lu Ke came back with a bulging bag in his hands.

He smiled at Huo Yuanchen as a greeting before saying to Wen Li, "You just said you were not used to sleeping in the countryside. I remembered that I had a new sleeping bag in my car. There are many mosquitoes in the countryside, so it would be more convenient for you to use a sleeping bag."

Wen Li didn't answer and hesitated, "What are you going to do?"

Lu Ke smiled and said, "I don't need it. I just bought a sleeping bag on impulse and put it in the car, planning to go camping someday. But as you can see, I'm too busy with business and I'm alone, so I don't have the energy to go camping. You can use it, don't be polite to me."

Seeing that Wen Li still didn't answer, he added, "Your brother is never polite to me. Of course, I won't be polite to him either."

After hearing what he said, Wen Li took the sleeping bag and said, "Thank you, Brother Lu Ke."

Huo Yuanchen's face gradually turned cold after hearing the voice of "Brother Lu Ke".

So much so that when Lu Ke said goodbye to him, he ignored him.

Wen Li thought he was quite rude and didn't treat him well at all.

He asked Wen Li to help put the express in the trunk, but she pretended not to hear him and ignored him completely.

Wen Li noticed with his sharp eyes that the express delivery he had specially run to the town to pick up was sent from Haishi University.

She came over to close the trunk, and out of guilt or coincidence, Huo Yuanchen's big hand blocked the sender column.

Even so, Wen Li still saw the sender's name. Although the characters behind it were replaced by asterisks and the full name was not typed out, there was a bright "An" printed there, so she could certainly guess who it was from.

Wen Li got in the car and put the sleeping bag on the passenger seat. Look at this.

Huo Yuanchen put his things away, closed the trunk, and pulled out the car door only to find that his seat was taken. He asked Wen Li, "Where do you want me to sit?"

Wen Li raised his eyebrows and said, "You can sit wherever you like, just don't sit on my passenger seat."

Huo Yuanchen looked at her coldly, then turned around and opened the back door.

Wen Li sneered and said, "Since you're sitting in the back, it makes me look like your driver. Why should I be your driver? I don't owe you anything."

Huo Yuanchen suppressed his anger and asked her , "What do you want?"

Wen Li sneered, "What can I do to you? What can I do to you? You are the almighty Professor Huo. It's easy for you to take revenge on me."

Huo Yuanchen reminded her, "I transferred the money to you. I have reserved your car today."

Wen Li said, "I didn't say I wouldn't give you a ride. Aren't I waiting for you to get in the car?"

Huo Yuanchen looked at her coldly for a while, then closed the rear door with great force. The sound of the door closing was particularly loud.

He opened the passenger door, took the sleeping bag from the passenger seat without saying a word, threw it to the back, got in the car, and fastened his seat belt.

Wen Li yelled at him, "Get down, I won't let you sit here."

Huo Yuanchen said coldly, "What's wrong with me sitting here? If you don't want to, try to force me away."

His scoundrel look almost made Wen Li cry.

She held the steering wheel without moving, her fingertips turning white, obviously she was furious. He just watched coldly beside her, without any intention of admitting his fault, let alone saying anything to comfort her.

He just reminded her nonchalantly, "If you don't drive, it will be dark."

Wen Li reached out to push him, trying to get him out of the car, but he was so tall that her strength was like tickling him, totally useless.

She also took into account that it was getting late and after several attempts to get him out of the car, she had to start the car first.

My chest felt like it was about to explode from being so mad at this bastard, and it was heaving all the way.

He, on the other hand, kept his eyes fixed on her chest, looking at her with fascination.

Wen Li was so angry that she even wanted to die with him. Fortunately, she still kept her rationality, thinking that she still had her parents, and it was not worth dying for such a bastard, so she did not do anything extreme.

The road from the town to Xinfeng Village is too difficult to drive on. Wen Li knows his driving skills, so he doesn't dare drive too fast. Whenever he encounters a ditch or a bump, he slows down and drives through it.

As a result, it was already dark before we saw the village.

She turned on the high beam and drove cautiously all the way. There were no street lights around. Except for a small area illuminated by the headlights, it was pitch black all around.

Suddenly, a strange green light flashed not far away.

Wen Li saw a figure in front of the car and quickly stepped on the brakes.

Huo Yuanchen asked her, "What's wrong?"

She didn't bother to get angry with him, and looked outside the car and said, "I don't know, it seems like there is something."

As soon as he finished speaking, green spots of light and black shadows appeared more and more wherever the car lights reached.

Wen Li felt an inexplicable fear in his heart, and asked Huo Yuanchen nervously, "What's outside?"

Huo Yuanchen lowered his lips and said, "We have encountered a pack of wolves."
