Chapter 242 Jealousy



“No need,” Sheng Qian shook her head. “Using your stuff would be too conspicuous. You wouldn’t want me walking down the street being pointed at and talked about, would you? Besides, it would easily expose your strength, which wouldn’t be good for your team members.”

Sheng Qian knew that he had been keeping a low profile all along, and that he was exceptionally discreet in public.

Long Yunting frowned slightly and glanced at the steering wheel. "This car was obtained from the eldest son of the Xie family, right?"

Sheng Qian immediately looked at him.

His eyes looked a little strange.

Long Yunting seemed oblivious to her expression as he drove, saying, "In Beijing, he's the only one doing this kind of business."

"Oh, this must be the new model that Pan Xianyun bought from Quan Shao. I won it after he'd barely driven it twice. So, in a way, it's a car I got from Quan Shao too." Saying this, Sheng Qian smiled, "What, judging from what you just said, you're going to confiscate my car?"

“No,” Long Yunting wouldn’t admit that he was jealous.

Sheng Qian asked knowingly, "So you've taken a liking to this car? Although you like it very much, I don't have a car for you right now, so I won't give it to you for now. I'll find you a better one when you can drive openly and legally."

“There are quite a few patrol cars in the compound,” Long Yunting said, somewhat annoyed.

Sheng Qian responded with an "oh," suppressing a laugh.

On the way back to the clothing store, Sheng Qian noticed that it was quiet outside, so she stayed in the car and didn't get out immediately.

"arrive."

Long Yunting reminded her.

"Don't come over tomorrow morning either," Sheng Qian suddenly said.

When Sheng Qian said this, Long Yunting knew he would definitely come over to have breakfast with her in the morning. So when he said this, Long Yunting's eyes darkened.

Does this mean they dislike him?

Sheng Qian opened the car door and got out. "I'll go in first. I'm going to see you tomorrow morning."

These words startled Long Yunting, who turned to look at her abruptly.

His eyes were deep and bright.

Sheng Qian found his reaction somewhat amusing. "You're always the one coming to me for breakfast, so I have to reciprocate."

"This..." doesn't seem like you.

Before Sheng Qian accepted him, she acted indifferently and coldly.

She wouldn't smile at him like this now, and she certainly wouldn't say such things.

"Not welcome?" Sheng Qian narrowed her dark eyes.

“Of course you’re welcome, but it would be troublesome for you to come over. I’ll come over instead,” Long Yunting said, though he himself had things to do, he wasn’t as busy as her.

“I’ll go over there,” Sheng Qian waved her hand, took a few steps and then turned back, just in time to see Long Yunting’s stunned expression through the windshield.

He looks a bit silly and cute, which makes Sheng Qian want to laugh again.

"You can drive the car back first," Sheng Qian bent down and smiled through the car window, her eyes crinkling. "A-Ting, you look quite cute when you're jealous."

After saying that, the person walked towards the clothing store.

Long Yunting gripped the steering wheel tightly, forgetting to get out of the car to see her off.

Coming to his senses, he opened the car door, only to find that the person in front had already closed the door, showing no intention of turning back to look at him.

Long Yunting sat back down, staring blankly at the storefront in front of him.

Artin.

No one had ever called him that before.

Although it wasn't a very intimate term of address, he found it to be more pleasant than any other one!

Long Yunting stayed in the same spot for a while before driving away.

Upon hearing the sound of the car, Sheng Qian stood by the window and watched it drive away.

The next morning, Sheng Qian got up early to exercise.

Her space is now much larger than before.

As her abilities improve, the space she can store also becomes increasingly larger.

Her space is constantly being replenished with goods.

The same object is created by releasing it and then putting it back.

Looking at the ever-increasing amount of stuff and the ever-expanding space, Sheng Qian felt a sense of satisfaction.

She said she would go in the morning, and she did, but when Sheng Qian came out, she still saw Long Yunting driving over. Of course, it wasn't Long Yunting driving; it was Chen Zhao.

What's rare is that Gao Jie, whom I haven't seen in a long time, was also by my side.

Sheng Qian walked up to him and asked, "Why did you come here in person? Didn't we agree that I would come over?"

Long Yunting said, "I'll come pick you up."

Sheng Qian was speechless.

How is this any different from him coming here?

"sister in law!"

Gao Jie greeted Sheng Qian respectfully upon seeing her.

Sheng Qian nodded slightly to Gao Jie: "Boss Gao."

Gao Jie chuckled and said, "I just happened to run into Captain Long while I was passing by, so I came over to take a look."

Sheng Qian asked, "Has Boss Gao had breakfast yet?"

"I...I've already eaten," Gao Jie quickly corrected himself.

“Boss Gao, I haven’t eaten yet. I was just thinking of trying a noodle place nearby. Let’s go together,” Chen Zhao said, and at Long Yunting’s prompting, he tactfully hooked his arm around Gao Jie’s shoulder and walked away.

Sheng Qian smiled as she watched the scene unfold before her, then looked at Long Yunting and said, "I'll drive!"

Long Yunting nodded, and she pushed the wheelchair back to the car.

Sheng Qian watched as Long Yunting moved into the car, his posture completely like that of a disabled person.

Sheng Qian thought that if Long Yunting were to act, he would definitely win the Best Actor award.
