Chapter 1339: Could He Be A Scammer?
Another two or three hours flew by and it was 10 PM by the time she finished up all her work.
She was extremely disappointed to find that Mo Yixuan haven’t texted or called her.
It was as though he had completely forgotten about her.
He Xiyan turned off her phone and gripped her phone tightly in her hands. She walked up to the windowsill and stared at the busy streets down below.
She took a deep breath and the hope in her eyes dimmed as disappointment took its place.
As expected, he wasn’t truly serious about her.
She refused to believe that he wasn’t able to take some time to contact her in spite of his busy schedule.
This thought upset her, so she threw her phone onto her desk, rummaged through the closet for her pajamas before she headed into the bathroom.
She adjusted the temperature of her shower water and bathed in such hot water that it could be considered scalding water.
However, she didn’t seem to be affected by the scalding water and continued to shower in this hot water. The hot water washed over her and made her body very warm to the touch.
The marks he left on her body were extremely clear under the bathroom lights. These marks were like small strawberries planted randomly on her chest and even on her thighs.
She smacked her face in an attempt to make herself come back to her senses.
She couldn’t help but wonder what she should do if he ignored her and everything that happened the night before was just his ploy to get her into bed with him.
What should she do if everything turned out to be wishful thinking on her part?
She felt extremely cold despite her hot shower. It was as though someone had pushed her into an ice cave.

She was afraid that things would take a turn for the worst, afraid that all her hopes would be dashed, and that everything would turn out to be a scam.
She was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to contact him again.
She opened the maps app on her phone after her shower and keyed in an address: 28 Yangguang Road, Ziguang District, West Ye City.
This was the address he had given her yesterday.
She wanted to know if this was a residential area and was desperate to find out if the address he had given her was a legitimate address.
Soon, the map zoomed into the area she had keyed on the map. She enlarged the picture but she couldn’t tell what kind of buildings were located at that particular address. The map only marked out that address as a residential address.
It seemed a little remote and she didn’t see any hotels or large malls around the area.
She couldn’t tell what kind of district it was because the map only marked it out as a patch of gray.
He Xiyan’s heart raced and she felt extremely confused, a stark contrast to her happiness earlier that afternoon.
He had yet to contact her even though it was almost 11 PM. She clicked on his WeChat Moments and realized that he had not posted any new updates.
Should she take the initiative to contact him?
She paced around her room anxiously for more than 10 minutes but ultimately, she didn’t reach out to him.
She made up her mind to head down to that particular address the next day to see for herself if that was truly his home address. He would have given her a fake address if everything that happened the night before was merely a ruse for it would make it even more difficult for her to track him down. He didn’t have to go to classes on campus, so he could terminate the lease of his apartment at any moment.

Was he a scammer?
Her knees almost gave way at that thought and she almost fell onto the floor.
She rubbed at her temples and kept telling herself to calm down and reminded herself not to let her imagination run wild.
