He Yufeng and Yin Zejing left in the former’s car. It soon turned a corner at an intersection and vanished from Xia Wennan’s sight.
The instant there was no one left on the street save for himself, Xia Wennan felt abruptly colder, so he intended to cross the street quickly and return to the Duans’ dinner party.
The hilly residential area had narrow streets, all being two-way single lane roads. Xia Wennan was just stepping off the sidewalk and onto the road when he suddenly spotted a car turning a corner and heading his way.
The car had left their headlights off, and by the illumination of the streetlights, Xia Wennan could only make out an outline of a black, slightly shabby car.
Confident that the driver could see him under the lights, Xia Wennan hastened his pace, eager to get to the other side of the road.
Who would’ve guessed that, not only did the car not slow down, it sped up instead.
Heart in his throat, Xia Wennan bolted to the other side. The second he walked onto the footpath, the car that was virtually on his heels drove straight by him—Xia Wennan could even feel the car’s side-view mirror grazing the back of his shirt.

He came to a halt and peered apprehensively at the car that hadn’t slowed down for even a second, but the car had no intention of stopping even then as it sped away from his field of view. He couldn’t convince himself that he was just being paranoid and that someone didn’t actually want to run him over.
Xia Wennan inhaled deeply. The cold air streamed into his nasal cavity and down into his lungs, gradually cooling his head.
Duan Wenlong’s birthday dinner was well underway. The lights and space heaters in the garden dispelled the chill in Xia Wennan’s body.
He came to a halt, looked around, and noticed that, while the alpha pianist continued to play the piano, Ming Qin was no longer by his side. The alpha pianist was playing a gentle tune fit for a waltz, and the guests had partnered up, slow-dancing to the music.
Xia Wennan caught sight of Duan Ning dancing with an alpha who was most likely one of the Duan family’s guests in the middle of the dance floor. As it was a bad time for Xia Wennan to interrupt, he could only stand on the outskirts while keeping an eye on them.
“What are you staring at?” A familiar voice sounded from behind him.
