Everyone says that the Crown Prince of the Yin family is black-hearted, ruthless, and extremely cunning, a powerful figure in North City who must never be provoked.
Yet Jiang Yuan went out of...
Chapter 486: Just a Joke (Ji Chuan and Xu Hui CP)
Ji Chuan was driving a Bentley Continental. Xu Hui recognized it at a glance. The car must have a starting price of at least four million.
It’s not like Xu Hui hasn’t ridden in a luxury car before, but for some reason, today when she sat in the passenger seat, she felt uncomfortable all over.
Perhaps it was because this car seemed cleaner than any other car she had ever ridden in, or perhaps it was the aura of the man next to her that made her feel a little restrained. Xu Hui simply turned her head to the window, her eyes searching the roadside, intending to have him drop her off when they saw the hotel.
All her belongings were probably burned down, and now she was left with nothing and could only find a place to stay for the night.
A man's calm voice came from my ear: "Where are you going?"
Xu Hui struggled to speak and replied with two words: "Hotel."
The sound is like a duck's voice, so unpleasant.
He said, as if nothing had happened: "Staying in a hotel isn't very safe. Is there anywhere else to go?"
Xu Hui smiled, then said in a hoarse voice, "Their target isn't me, so why would it be unsafe?"
He tilted his head and paused at her face for a few seconds, then turned back and asked calmly, "Why do you live with Jiang Yuan?"
She understood what he meant. He probably meant that the risk factor around Jiang Yuan was too high.
She replied calmly, "When she first approached me about this business, she had no place to live, so I asked her to come and share the rent with me. After living here for a long time, we've developed feelings for each other. We can look after each other."
Ji Chuan was silent for a while, then suddenly asked, "How long have you been doing this?"
Xu Hui didn't expect him to ask so bluntly. His face froze for a moment, but he quickly replied with a faint smile, "It's the fifth year."
After she finished speaking, the man beside her fell silent.
She tilted her head to the window again. There happened to be a hotel on the side of the road. She pointed in that direction and said, "I'm going there. You can stop in front. Thank you."
Ji Chuan glanced in the direction of her finger. It was a hotel with a very small frontage. There was a beauty salon on the left and an Internet cafe on the right.
He silently withdrew his gaze and stepped on the accelerator with his right foot.
Xu Hui watched the hotel flash by before his eyes, turned around and said urgently, "We've passed it, stop now."
"Didn't you hear?"
"I've walked past it, but I have to walk back. I twisted my ankle and can't walk that far."
Perhaps because he couldn't stand her hoarse voice, Ji Chuan interrupted her directly: "I'll find you another place to live."
Xu Hui blinked, "Where to?"
He didn't reply to her.
The corners of her mouth curled up slightly in a charming way, "You don't want to take me back to your home?"
He didn't turn his head, and said in a cold voice: "I'm not interested in you."
Xu Hui's smile deepened. "I'm just kidding, don't be angry. Young Master Ji is a man who keeps himself clean. He's probably surrounded by daughters of wealthy families. To be honest, the first time I saw you, I felt you had a very clean aura. I've met so many men, but you're really rare."
He turned his head and looked at her, then asked her in a deep voice, "When did you first meet me?"
Xu Hui: "You probably don't remember that night at Liang Zhouheng's bar. If you hadn't rescued us in time, Jiang Yuan and I would have fallen into Qin Bao's hands. Later, President Yin took Jiang Yuan away, and you even asked someone to take me home."
She talked too much and her throat felt a little sore, so she couldn't help but pinch her throat.
His gaze fell on the steering wheel, and he drooped his eyelids, suppressing the emotion that had just ignited in his eyes.
