Reluctantly, and with a touch of panic, Lin Congzhi began his Oscar-worthy performance: "Girl, I'm covered in injuries and desperately need the warmth of your hands. Could I hold your hand all the way to your apartment building?"
Sitting in the driver's seat, Gao Jiakai was won over by Brother Lin's persistent and persistent behavior.
He couldn't possibly be that shameless.
Jiang Yimei believed that Lin Congzhi was covered in wounds, but she absolutely did not believe that the warmth of her hands could heal Lin Congzhi's wounds.
"Lin Congzhi, stop pretending and let go!"
Lin Congzhi was on the verge of tears, pleading pitifully, "Girl, please, please?"
Jiang Yimei had to criticize Lin Congzhi's delusional behavior: "Lin Congzhi, so what if you keep leading me to my apartment building? Anyway, I'm not yours, and I won't be with you."
The voice was so arrogant that it left no room for any hope.
Lin Congzhi felt as if a sharp thorn had suddenly pierced his heart, causing him unbearable pain.
However, having weathered many storms, he quickly calmed down.
He gently lifted his clasped hands, gazing deeply into her eyes, and said with heartfelt sincerity, "Even if it's just for a moment, I'd cherish the time I spend holding your hand!"
"call!"
Letting out a breath, Jiang Yimei leaned back in her seat, utterly speechless.
She'd had enough of this man; neither hitting nor scolding worked, and she didn't know how to deal with him.
Hopefully, on the day she marries someone else, he won't cause trouble, especially not some melodramatic wedding robbery.
Lin Congzhi also felt that what he was doing was meaningless; but he just couldn't control himself, couldn't control touching Jiang Yimei, feeling Jiang Yimei's heartbeat and body temperature, and couldn't control feeling her presence.
The atmosphere in the back seat was so awkward it was hard to breathe. Gao Jiakai, sitting in the driver's seat, swallowed hard, feeling that it was better to ignore what he saw and heard.
He started the car, stepped on the gas, and drove off.
They remained silent until they were almost nearing Tianxin Residential Area. Jiang Yimei, who was admiring the scenery along the way, finally moved her lips and said, "Xiao Kai, take your Brother Lin back first."
Gao Jiakai, who was focused on driving, was taken aback by the question: "Huh? Why?"
Didn't your sister-in-law agree to let Brother Lin hold her hand all the way to the apartment building? Why did she suddenly change her mind?
Jiang Yimei replied solemnly, "Your Brother Lin is injured and needs treatment and rest."
Gao Jiakai's heart leaped into his throat, his brows furrowing into a deep frown as he asked anxiously, "Brother Lin is injured? How did he get hurt? Is it serious?"
He thought Brother Lin was just acting, but it turned out to be true.
Lin Congzhi, unwilling to be separated from the girl, casually added, "It's nothing, just a superficial injury."
Jiang Yimei said sternly, "Still trying to be tough? You almost collapsed and couldn't get up."
"What? He's collapsed and can't get up?"
Startled, Gao Jiakai drove to the side of the road, slammed on the brakes, and came to a stop.
"What exactly happened?"
Seeing Xiao Kai's startled reaction and obvious worry for him, Lin Congzhi righteously and sternly refuted Jiang Yimei's earlier words: "Girl, I know you're anxious to get rid of me, but don't exaggerate like that, okay?"
Who wanted to drive him away? She was concerned about his injuries, wasn't she? Her good intentions were taken for granted.
After complaining, Jiang Yimei advised him sternly, "Don't be stubborn. Listen to me and go back to rest."
