Shen Zhilie narrowed his eyes and raised his guard . He had always possessed a keen sense of awareness . He knew that this feeling of unease hadn’t come out of nowhere .

“What’s wrong?” Ye Qianqian saw Shen Zhilie stay still for a long while and reached out to nudge his hand .

Shen Zhilie shook his head gently and said, “It’s fine . Sit tight . ”

Ye Qianqian buckled her seatbelt and held on tight to the door . Shen Zhilie looked to his left and to his right once more before finally turning on the ignition . He buckled up and moved the car forward .

Ye Qianqian noticed how watchful he was of his surroundings, and her hair stood on end . Shen Zhilie never acted this way . His actions today were very unusual!

“Old Shen, what did you see?” As Ye Qianqian voiced this question, she trembled . She whipped her head around, only to see the beautiful interior of the luxury car shrouded in darkness . Nothing seemed out of the ordinary .

Shen Zhilie, on the other hand, was stunned by Ye Qianqian’s sudden movement . “What is it?” The fear was palpable in Shen Zhilie’s eyes .

Ye Qianqian felt as if her heart were about to jump out of her throat . “I think I’m about to go crazy! What am I going to do? I’m even afraid of my own shadow now!”

“Don’t be afraid . Just relax…” Shen Zhilie drove the car out of the parking lot as he spoke to her in a calm and reassuring tone . His voice had the ability to help her relax . However, Shen Zhilie’s attention wasn’t wholly focused on calming Ye Qianqian down . Instead, time and again, his eyes darted around at his surroundings and the rearview mirror . Once they were out on the main road and out of the downtown area, Shen Zhilie accelerated .

Ye Qianqian was busy being lulled by his voice when she finally realized something was amiss . “You’re heading in the wrong direction,” she remarked .

“Yeah, I know . ” Shen Zhilie kept glancing into the rearview mirror as he drove . “I want to break-in the car on the road . It’s not a bad idea to take a little detour . ”

“What?” This was Ye Qianqian’s first time hearing of such a thing . She looked at Shen Zhilie and realized that his mind was preoccupied with something else . “What are you doing?” she asked .

“Shh . Just sit quietly . ” Shen Zhilie continued driving the car steadily but suddenly floored the gas pedal . Ye Qianqian’s heart skipped a beat as she sat tight in silence .

However, after observing both side-view mirrors, as well as the rearview mirror in the middle, Ye Qianqian didn’t find anything odd . Still, Shen Zhilie’s reaction couldn’t help but make her feel nervous . Ye Qianqian asked hesitantly, “Are we being followed?”

Shen Zhilie didn’t reply, and merely increased the car’s speed . Ye Qianqian turned her head back to look . Only when all the cars behind them finally disappeared into the distance did Shen Zhilie slow the car down .

“Was someone tailing us just now?” A layer of cold sweat covered Ye Qianqian’s brow . She looked into Shen Zhilie’s eyes with lingering fear and worry .

Shen Zhilie shook his head . “No . It was just a false alarm . ”

“Yeah . I was just being extra careful and testing the waters . If it really was the person from this morning and he followed us to Youyou’s house, Youyou and Third Li would have been in danger, too . But fortunately, my worries were unfounded . ”

“Why did you suddenly get so suspicious out of the blue?” Ye Qianqian sensed that there was something more here than met the eye . Shen Zhilie wasn’t skittish like she was . If Shen Zhilie had his guard up, it had to be because he had really seen or felt something .

“What do you mean by ‘out of the blue’? I was clearly influenced by you!” Shen Zhilie chuckled . With his hands on the steering wheel, he said helplessly, “Switch on the GPS . I’m lost . ”

Ye Qianqian was speechless .
