Chapter 1552. Encounter (1)
She finally looked away after a long time and as her gaze swept across Qi Lei, she whispered, “When I think about the possibility of being away for a long time, or not having the chance to come back again, I suddenly feel like I’m going to miss this place a lot. I hope…that it’ll always be here. When I miss this place, I want to be able to come back.”
Dongfang Liuyun’s tone was unusually calm when she said this and her eyes seemed like she was deep in thought. Qi Lei was able to read and understand her logic. After thinking about it, he replied, “I won’t give you a reason to come back and stay here for long. Let’s go now. It’s late.”
He reached out to hold her and got into the car.
Dongfang Liuyun stopped looking at the familiar house and lightly inhaled before finally getting into the car.
The driver quickly started the engine…
On the way back to the Grand Lake Villa, both of them barely spoke in the back seat. The driver in front was also very cautious and tense as he drove the car intently.
It was already getting dark as the car was zooming in the faint afterglow. It was quiet inside the car as Dongfang Liuyun just sat and looked out of the car window at the streets that were constantly moving backward as the car kept going.

This silence was not actually a form of mutual understanding but more like repression. The cell phone in Dongfang Liuyun’s pocket suddenly vibrated, finally breaking the silence.
