Chapter 783. Wedding Night (2)
The sky was getting darker as the rain became heavier. The whole city was shrouded in a thick mist and the street lamps that were equipped with light sensors were already switched on. Many cars on the road switched their headlights on as well.
It was quite a distance between the Ji Residence and Su Chen’s apartment, so it took some time for them to go past the city center.
The two of them did not talk on the road as Su Chen focused on driving and kept looking ahead.
After passing a traffic light, Su Chen finally turned over to the woman beside him. She had been quiet with her eyes closed this whole time, so he decided to break the silence.
“Miss them already?”
Although she had hardly spoken when they parted with her parents earlier, he happened to catch a glimpse of desolation in her eyes. He knew this woman had always suppressed her feelings, and would not express herself even if she cared.
His sudden voice stunned Ji Zitong for a moment. She opened her eyes and looked at him. Then, she replied quietly, “Not really. It’s not like we’re never seeing each other ever again.”
She looked out of the window and noticed the sky had turned dark. The car passed by the plaza and she saw the needle on the clock showing that it was half-past five.
Su Chen glanced at her again before averting his gaze back to the road in front. He did not say anything else. Instead, Ji Zitong explained herself moments later, “I’m not a family-oriented person. I’ve always wanted to go far, far away when I was younger. I wanted to leave this city and take a look outside, but then I became tired. That’s why I’m back here. My parents never left this place, but of course, I do miss this place.”
