Although Jiannan Lyu looked unreconciled, he didn’t keep pestering me, instead, he stood on the side of the road, watching me drive away.
I have kept contact with him all the way for two reasons. On the one hand, I want to take the advantage of him to fulfill my plans, on the other hand, my impression on him is not so bad. I know he is bad, even depraved, but I don’t that care what other people think of him, because after all, his attitude toward me is far from excessively vicious.
More importantly, he is a practical man, which for me, is of so much importance. I know perfectly well how valuable practicability is. Some people are worshiped and consecrated as if they were gods, but except for their false glory, they have no ability at all. However, Jiannan is none of them. Though he’s got a bad reputation, he’s never tried to shake off people’s prejudice. He is willing to live in the disguise of a villain, because at a crucial point, it helps him a lot, for example, with it he can help me handle Ruoxin Chen.
It’s hard for an ordinary person to handle a man like Ruoxin who has a remarkably strong background, but Jiannan can make it. For me, he is the incarnation of God who can do anything, including dealing with Ruoxin, of course.
I have to admit my criteria for judging a man’s value is too selfish and unfair, but almost all the social relations are involved in exchanges of interests, especially for me who is in great danger now. Therefore, I must be more realistic than others.
While I was thinking to myself, a car suddenly came close to me. I immediately dodged to the other side, but it unexpectedly turned its way to me again and forced me to the sidewalk. It finally stopped.
Before I could get off my car, someone had already come out of the car which forced me to stop just now.
She was a beautiful woman with a slender figure and exquisite facial features, who gave off a sense of superiority in the package of luxury brands. She was Ling Jiang’s daughter-Xi Su.
She looked at my car narrowly while she was pacing around it. Of course, she was familiar with the sport car that Ling Jiang had given me.
She rushed in front of me. “I can’t believe my mom has given the car to you. It’s a gift from my dad. Why did you ask for it? Don’t you feel ashamed?” scorned she as she pointed at my nose in a domineering manner.
“It’s given to me of aunty Jiang’s own accord. I’ve been declining to accept it, but she was determined and insisted on that. In order not to hurt her feelings, I finally accepted the enthusiastic offer.” explained I, indifferently.
“Was she silly? Why did she insist on giving you a car? What are you? When I was abroad, I asked her for the car. However, she refused to give it to me, thinking it too showy for me to drive. What I’m driving now is an ordinary car that’s worth no more than one million dollars, while your luxury car values millions of dollars. Why must I keep low key, while you are in a high profile? Who is her daughter on earth?”
Xi became even more furious while speaking.
“I did get the car as a gift from aunty Jiang, not through stealing or robbing. And I don’t know exactly why she chose to give it to me, rather than you. If you feel dissatisfied about this, you are free to ask her for a specific reason. However, it’s inappropriate to pull me to a stop on the street, and we’ll all get fined once the traffic police come. Please move your car off my way, I’ve got to go.”
“Why do you drive my mom’s million-level luxury car while I have to drive a car of several hundred thousand dollars only? Why?”
“Sorry, Miss. Su. I can’t answer this question, but you can ask your mom about that. Noble and wealthy as you are, you can drive whatever you want, even the tens-of-million-level cars, not to mention a million-level one. So, don’t struggle with this issue anymore.”
“No way. You’ve got to return it to me. Why did my mom give it to you?”
What she said astonished me a lot. She was getting back a car that had been made a gift to another person. How stupid it is!
“Miss. Su, I think you need to think twice. After all, it has nothing to do with you, even if you’re aunty Jiang’s daughter. You don’t have the right to get back what your mom has given to me. I’m afraid it hard for you to explain to your mom.” said I, with a smile.
“She is my mom. Of course, I can explain it clearly to her. Give your car to me. Let’s exchange our cars.
I couldn’t help laughing. Having enjoyed a great reputation throughout Yang City, Su Family are well respected by everyone. Who could ever imagine that Miss Su is such a rude and ignorant person who has behaved so ridiculously?
“What are you laughing for? Whether are you going to give it back to me?” said Xi, more furiously.
“Alright. Now that you must get it back, I will do as you required, but there’s one thing you need to tell aunty Jiang- it is you who got the car back.
While we were talking, a police car approached.
“Please show me your driver’s license, by the way, it’s forbidden parking here.” said a traffic police in the car as he saluted to us.
“Don’t you see us negotiating? Why can’t we park here for a moment? Which team are you from and who is your team leader?” shouted Xi to the police.
Seeing this, I hastened to apologize to the police. “Sorry. Our cars almost crashed into each other, so there was a little argue between us. We’re moving soon.”
That police looked between me and my car, saying, “Well, hurry to leave. If you continue parking here, it will block the traffic.”
Getting out of my car, I said to Xi, “Come to drive my car?”
“Ok. You can drive my car. I won’t be too selfish. You can drive home as well.” said Xi.
“No. Thanks. I can take a taxi. See you.”
After waving goodbye to her, I reached out my hand to flag down a taxi and then left.
When arriving at Nan House, I was told by the servant that Wenbei had been stayed in the study room for a long time. It seemed he was worrying about something, otherwise, he wouldn’t stay inside for that long.
I came to the study room and knocked at the door. After being summoned by Wenbei. I just pushed the door in.
Sitting on the chair, he was watching the computer screen. Seeing me approaching him, he asked me worriedly, “Are you ok, my dear sister? How could you be kidnapped by someone? Have you got hurt?”
I pretended to be calm and answered, “I’m pretty good. Don’t worry, Second Brother. I’m sorry for wasting time on your crucial business. I haven’t met with the guest from Hongkong.”
He waved his hands and comforted me, “No big deal. It’s good to see you’re all right. Nothing is more important than you. Don’t worry. As for the guest, I’ve already sent another people to meet with him.”
With worries in his eyes, he then asked me, “Did you check out who tried to harm you?”
“Not yet. It was a group of local residence who hurt me, but who is behind them is still unknown. I’m afraid it hard to find out the manipulator behind them. Second Brother, I feel so sorry to have delayed the process of your business.”
“It’s absolutely alright. Did you eat? Let me ask the servant to arrange the meal for you. ”
“I’ve had meal with a friend of mine. Didn’t you eat? You look worried. If there’s anything I can do for you, please feel free to tell me.”
“Noting for now. My little sister, you’d better go back to Hai City. I won’t be recovered in a short time, but it’s dangerous for you to stay here for too long. I think it better for you to leave for Hai City.”
What he said somewhat made me confused. He is unwell now when he is in great need of a helper. Why did he make such an abrupt decision to let me go?
