The little girl grinned from ear to ear, revealing rows of neat, white teeth. The man, with a helpless smile, tapped her forehead and carried her to the passenger seat.
He held down the little girl's struggling hands, carefully fastened her seatbelt, then walked around the car and got into the driver's seat. He rolled down the window and said indifferently, "We're not far from Xingzhan Garden. Call the park's driver to pick you up!"
After saying that, he rolled up the car window without any hesitation, started the engine, and drove away.
They've left?
Just like that, you left?
Ji Chen: "......."
President, Mr. Yan, Boss, Young Master...
It's so dark and late at night, the driver must be asleep by now...
Who doesn't know that Uncle Chen is a chronic morning grumpiness sufferer?
Is he calling now just asking to get beaten up?
Sir, I know you dote on Miss Gong!
But couldn't you at least consider the surrounding environment?
This is a remote mountain road, you know.
Aren't you at all worried about the personal safety of your subordinates?
A chilling breeze blew by, and Ji Chen shivered violently. He hugged himself tightly, staring at the star-studded night sky, feeling like crying but unable to shed a tear.
As I took out my phone and scrolled through my contacts, my eyes suddenly lit up.
The call was quickly answered, and a cold, hard male voice, devoid of any emotion, came through: "What is it?"
Ji Chen rubbed the goosebumps on his arms and said ingratiatingly, "Brother Bai, Brother Yi, Boss, could you come pick me up in your car...?"
——
As the car drove onto the coastal highway, Yan Jingzhou glanced sideways at the little girl who was drowsy with her head drooping, and a gentle smile flashed in his eyes.
Instead, they slowed down and gently rolled down the car window.
A damp scent drifted into the carriage and lingered around the little girl's nose.
Gong Ning, like a puppy sniffing at the smell of milk, suddenly opened her eyes and exclaimed in surprise, "Hmm? The smell of seawater?"
The little girl quickly turned around, looked out the car window, and shifted her hips to lean against the window.
Her bright eyes gazed at the vast blue sea in the distance, her pink nose twitched playfully a few times, and she took a deep breath.
Her eyes, as bright as the Milky Way, were filled with joy and excitement.
Gong Ning has loved the sea since she was a child.
I love the vast and boundless sea.
Perhaps it was the many times I escaped death in the ocean, or perhaps it was those fragmented and shapeless blues in my dreams!
The mere smell of the sea and the sound of the ebb and flow of the tide, the crashing waves, evoke a strange sense of familiarity and warmth...
It seems to be a lingering attachment...
The car slowly came to a stop, and Gong Ning couldn't wait to unbuckle her seatbelt and dash out of the car.
The man immediately got out of the car and followed. Watching the little girl kick off her shoes and run happily on the beach, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he called out, "Gong Ning, don't run so fast, don't take off your shoes, there are seashells!"
Seeing that the girl was too happy to hear anything, the man strode after her, grabbed the mischievous little girl by the armpit, and looked at her with a dark face, "Gong Ning, if you don't behave, you can go back now?"
The little girl was very uncomfortable being carried like that, and she frowned and struggled, saying, "Put me down!"
Using the dim light of the distant lighthouse and the hazy moonlight, the man could see the fine downy hairs on the little girl's pink face, and his gaze settled slightly.
My gaze moved down and settled on her bare, white, and tender little feet.
