CHAPTER 195

Shifting his gaze to the side, Xie Tian let out a heavy sigh before asking, "Why?"

Liu Xiao Xin who had only reacted that way in hopes of helping her brother and making sure not to lose him this time was both shocked by her actions as her eyes continued blinking for some seconds while racking her brain for the perfect excuse.

"Why?" He questioned once more.

The second he spoke those words out, she instantly sense his impatience and hurriedly spoke up s her lips trembled from the shock.

"You said, next time we meet, hold me strong so that I do not leave again and I would accompany you," Liu Xiao Xin recounted.

Just hearing those words replay before him, Xie Tian's fell open with his eyes coming to a close once more.

Memories of his time back then at the racing site where he met her, Xiao Xin.

Due to how free she was with him and how they so much enjoyed each other's company, they had both forgotten to ask each other of their names.

The only way he knew her name was when her friend called her Xiao Xin as she was taking her leave and he recalled pointing out what a nice name that was.

But she never spoke about her surname nor did she ask for his.

"Yeah. I did say that, didn't I?"

She nodded her head before lowering it a little bit again. Left with no other choice, Xie Tian decided to deal with the little birdie before him first and then, he could face Andromeda another day.

He still hated the fact that Liu Xueyi always felt he had the upper hand with him when it comes to Andromeda.

And although he hated to admit it, that was the truth. Also, it was because Andromeda loved him and allowed him do as he pleased.

Turning his body to face her, Xie Tian's face lit up, managing a charming smile to ease her worry.

"It is okay. I am not going anywhere. It is nice to see you again, Liu Xiao Xin."

She whipped her head up immediately, meeting his gaze. A warm smile crept up her cheeks, reaching up to her eyes.

Although he did not drive, she was happy that he was in the car and now they had finally met.

Liu Xiao Xin's chest rose a fraction as she slowly released the breath, she had been holding in.

"Hello."

Meanwhile, the second Andromeda rushed off, she found a quieter place and stopped on the way to catch her breath.

She had never been one to like fights and even now that she sealed her resolve for revenge, just having two people that were close to her fight made her heart clench.

Andromeda lowered her back, bending her head as she fixed her gaze on the ground.

'I am tired. So tired. For once can I not be the center of attraction? Father was right. I know how to attract trouble.' Her eyes closed briefly as she took in more breaths.

As much as her mind and head bothered her, right now she was trying so much to forget all of her thought and find herself a cab to take her home.

'Good thing this isn't like the place Liu Xueyi dropped me off prior. I can easily order for a cab and pay with…'

She had barely completed her thoughts when she heard the familiar voice of Liu Xueyi calling out to her.

"Andromeda!"

Rising to a standing position, Andromeda decided it was best to avoid both men to prevent any side from getting angry, the second she shifted one leg out, his domineering voice took over in the calmest way possible.

"Andy, wait."

Although subtle, she felt his every command in those two words. He was hurt and she knew it but his hurt and jealous had clouded his thinking and he acted rather harsh.

To her surprise, she heard his footsteps rushing over to her and before she could do anything, Liu Xueyi's hand latched unto her fist and pulled her with him.

"Xueyi…"

His mind was filled with anger from his jealousy as the only thoughts running through his mind were he ones of her lips pressed against Xie Tian's that night.

Never in his life would he think he would be so tangled up in anger and jealousy like this but here he was doing so.

He wanted to stop himself from being angry. Ignore the fact that she not taking his side may means she liked Xie Tian.

Anything to rid hm of that thought but no matter how much he tried, that image kept on replaying in his mind.

And now more than anything, all he wished for was to leave where Xie Tian was and take her with him.

To Andromeda's surprise, they came to a stop in front of his car which for some reason she had been oblivious to, was not far from where she had stood.

Not giving her the time to process anything, he opened the door for her to go in and once seated, he shut the door and strode over to the driver's side of the car.

At first, she had not bothered to belt herself up and folded her arms in anger. Right now talking to him would be useless, Andromeda thought within her but the second he began to drive, she had a change of mind.

She had least expected for him to use such speed and when he did, her hands quickly found the seat belt and belted up.

All through their ride to her house, he ignored the speed limit and drove really fast. Andromeda knew for a fact that he would have to deal with the police as regarding such matter the next day.

At this point she knew he was so angry and jealous.

She did not know why but seeing his attitude when he met her with Xie Tian today, she knew it was not any simple jealousy.

And thinking back now, his distant attitude and change only began after that Friday night.

Not long after they arrived in front of the house where she lived. Rather than wait up for Liu Xueyi, Andromeda unhooked her seat belt, unlocked the car door and alighted without waiting for him.

Quickly she raced to the elevator. If at all they were going to have the fight, she would appreciate it not being outside in public.

And she was right. Seeing her leave in such a hurry, Liu Xueyi chased after her as well and got into the elevator before it closed.

Soon enough, they were in her house and the second he shut the door behind himself, she stormed her way away from him.

"Andromeda wait."

She had wished to ignore him but during their scary ride home, she had enough time to think things through. It was better she resolved the issue now, else it would be an issue in the future.

Swallowing all forms of fear or guilt, Andromeda turned around to face him. Her brows snapped together as she glared at him.

"You knew, right?" Andromeda's challenging voice came out strong, ready for what was to come.

Liu Xueyi's brows snapped together instantly at her accusation but before he could figure out what she meant, she continued, "You knew."

Not fully getting the entire picture, Liu Xueyi tilted his head to the right a bit while squinting at her. "What?"

With his confusion proudly worn on his face, she did not need someone to tell her that he needed help jugging his memory or he was feigning ignorance.

"Fine," Andromeda stated calmly as she took another step forward, finalizing to help him.

"You saw the kiss that night, right? You did."

His eyes came to a close when she admittedly asked him that. Instantly all of his initial anger seemed to have toned down a bit.

He did not want to answer but he knew not doing that would further fan her suspicions and make her not trust him fully.

"I did."

Andromeda's lips fell open slightly at his confirmation. However, she nodded in understanding but the look in her eyes spoke a different tale.

This was far from over. She was hurt.

"I am sorry, I did that," she began.

"Andromeda…"

"No. Listen. It wasn't intentional."

"I know."

"You did not, because if you did, you would not have closed up to me and more importantly, you wouldn't have tried to make me jealous using Gao Yuemi!"

His lips parted to speak but her voice resounded loud and clear.

"I have a problem loving again after what happened between Wu Bai and myself. I have my regrets, Liu Xueyi but having you treat me that way and…"

Andromeda let out a heavy sigh as she nodded her head, trying her best to control the anger that was rising up in her.

She had recalled what he said that day in the car when they had a fight about Gao Yuemi. He indirectly said she was loosed and following different men.

The sheer thought that he would think about that after she opened up to him made her heart clench.

"I am sorry but even you do not have the right to tell me what to do or not. "
