Chapter 123 Like a Good Person?
Zhou Qiao said she would just grab any employee to go with her, but the next day, Qin You was waiting for her at the back door of the bar.
Qin You was dressed in all black, wearing a black mask and a black hat, with his arms crossed, leaning against the wall like an assassin.
Zhou Qiao was startled and almost bumped into the wall again, making her injuries worse.
"Damn it, what are you doing here? Waiting to assassinate me? I didn't let him stay overnight!"
Qin You adjusted his hat, revealing a pair of sharp eyes peeking out from under the brim, radiating a chilling aura.
Clearly, if Zhou Qiao really let someone stay overnight, he wouldn't be standing here obediently as a driver anymore.
The employee who lost the draw stood between the two, fully aware of the inexplicable tense atmosphere.
Every employee remembers the value of Brother Qin's skills.
Brother Qin assigned them tasks and brought them food every day. Since they were being fed, he felt obligated to help them. As soon as he saw Brother Qin standing there like a guardian deity, he had an idea.
The employee who was originally scheduled to accompany Zhou Qiao to the hospital immediately switched sides, saying that he would feel at ease with Brother Qin accompanying the boss, and then he left in a huff.
"Hey you—! You're docking my pay!" Zhou Qiao was furious. Her employees were really unreliable; they sold her out in the end.
The employee paused, then turned around with a resentful look.
"I'll make it up for you." Qin You waved his hand, and the employee's eyes lit up. He left without looking back.
Zhou Qiao was so angry she gritted her teeth, glaring at him resentfully, "How are we going to get to the hospital? By riding your motorcycle?"
"Let's go." Qin You didn't waste any words and shook the key in his hand.
A silver sedan was parked at the entrance. Zhou Qiao looked closely and realized it was Qian Shanshan's car. Oh, even Qian Shanshan had betrayed him and lent him her car.
"Do you have a driver's license?" Zhou Qiao stood at the passenger door, refusing to get in the car. "I dare not sit in the car if you don't have a driver's license."
"have."
"How many times have you driven? How are your driving skills?"
"Get in the car."
"Can you drive it out? Or maybe we should let that guy from before drive it."
Zhou Qiao continued to chatter incessantly, testing Qin You's patience.
He finally couldn't hold back any longer, slammed the driver's side door shut, took a few steps around, grabbed Zhou Qiao, shoved her into the passenger seat, and fastened her seatbelt.
The two were very close. Qin You's stray hairs brushed against the tip of her nose. The two people who were once so intimate were so familiar with each other's breath, arousing a desire in their skin.
Qin You fastened his seatbelt but did not immediately pull away. Instead, he turned his head to look at her.
Upon seeing each other, Zhou Qiao was the first to look away.
Oh no, when she met those eyes, her heart couldn't help but pound. At such close range, she was afraid Qin You would hear her heart pounding like a drum.
Zhou Qiao said hastily, "Don't get so close to me, my arm smells."
"..."
This suggestive remark completely shattered the enchanting atmosphere.
Qin You closed his eyes and circled back to the main seat.
Zhou Qiao pinned herself to the seat, neither speaking nor moving, her eyes darting around aimlessly, unable to find a fixed point.
"Behave yourself," Qin You warned her.
Zhou Qiao was indignant. What could have been a sweet nothing came out of his mouth like a robber talking to a hostage.
Qin You was a very good driver; Zhou Qiao almost fell asleep in the car.
Upon arriving at the hospital, the cast was successfully removed, and she was finally free. She clenched her fists a few times, her left hand feeling limp, like a newly formed limb.
She did a few arm stretches, and Qin You watched her nervously from the side, afraid that she would pull on his bones again.
"Young lady, your arm is recovering very well. After some rehabilitation massage, the dexterity of your left hand will be back to normal." The doctor looked up at Qin You, who was dressed as an assassin, hesitated for a moment, and continued to instruct, "Young man, remember to massage your girlfriend's arm every day."
"We are not..."
"Okay." Qin You interrupted Zhou Qiao, earning a glare in return, but he didn't care at all.
Qin You paid the bill and took a bag of medicine. Zhou Qiao didn't have to do anything. She crossed her arms and followed behind him, imitating his cool demeanor.
After so many days, she had already learned his posture, looking down on everyone and everything, a typical cool guy.
"Get in the car." Qin You placed the medicine on the back seat.
Zhou Qiao didn't get into the car. Instead, she stood on the steps, arms crossed, looking down at him. "What are you up to? Don't think that just because you're nice to me, I'll change my mind. I have no intention of getting back together. You did all of this willingly."
Qin You looked up at her, and his eyes were no longer cold. They were like mountains and rivers shrouded in mist, making it impossible to fathom his thoughts.
His voice was low, and it even sounded like he was giving in.
"Willingly, without expecting anything in return."
Hearing him say that, Zhou Qiao felt embarrassed. She touched her nose and said, "Oh, so you didn't come here to ask to get back together at all. You just had a sudden burst of kindness and wanted to be a good person?"
Qin You took a step closer, his gaze sharpening as he stared intently at her.
Do I look like a good person?
Not only does he not seem like a good person, he doesn't even seem like a human being! He's as terrifying as a male ghost!
Qin You grabbed her wrist, pulled her close to him, and half-forced her to look into his eyes.
“Zhou Qiao, I’m here to ask you to get back together with me. When that happens depends on your feelings. I won’t interfere with your thoughts or pressure you. But my patience is limited. If you don’t agree to me soon, I’ll think of a way that has a high success rate.”
Zhou Qiao shouldn't have too much hope for him; yes, he's still as crazy as ever.
"ill!"
Here's a brief but spot-on review: the guy who's pursuing someone is even more arrogant than the one being pursued. What's the logic behind that?
Qin You drove her back to the bar. Zhou Qiao jumped out of the car almost as soon as it stopped. Qin You tried to help her up, but he couldn't even reach her afterimage.
She walked very fast, almost running.
Watching her retreating figure, Qin You let out a barely audible sigh.
Zhou Qiao returned to her room and carefully rubbed her arm, which was in a cast, before daring to smell it.
Thankfully, after washing her arms, they didn't smell anymore. She had been worried about the odor in the car, which made her feel like Cinderella, fleeing the scene as soon as the bell rang.
After the cast was removed, she could finally take a nice, relaxing shower.
After filling the tub with hot water, she relaxed and soaked in it, not daring to soak her arms for too long. She quickly washed them and then draped them over the edge of the tub.
Half an hour later, she finally climbed comfortably out of the bathtub, nimbly changed into a bathrobe, and walked barefoot to the window to close it.
A gust of wind blew by, and she glanced down. The silver car was still parked downstairs, and Qin You was leaning against it, smoking. He had his head down and was biting his cigarette, with smoke swirling around him. There were several cigarette butts at his feet.
At this moment, he didn't look cool at all; instead, he seemed rather forlorn.
