The car window was half lowered and Xiao Yi leaned against the seat lazily. As he lit a cigarette, his lips opened slightly and when he blew out the smoke, he looked incredibly sexy and charming.
His slender and gloomy eyes landed on her and Xia Yanran’s heart beat faster.
She tried to control her feelings and said with a cold expression, “Don’t worry, I won’t feel like dying over a man.”
Without waiting for Xiao Yi to say anything, Xia Yanran’s phone rang.
Seeing that it was from Sister Mei, Xia Yanran turned around and answered the call.
“Yanran, I went to the company to look for you just now and the colleagues said you went out.”
Xia Yanran felt a little guilty about Sister Mei being dismissed. If she had not agreed to the blind date and angered Xiao Yi, Sister Mei might not have lost her job!
“Sister Mei, wait for me at the company. I’ll be back right away.”
Sister Mei laughed. “It’s all right, Yanran. I came back to clear my things. I’m going to work in a large company instead!”
What? Going to work in a large company?
“CEO Xiao felt that I have the ability to work in HR and introduced me to another company. I didn’t expect myself to get hired. Yanran, I have to thank CEO Xiao!”
Xia Yanran was slightly dazed.
After ending the call with Sister Mei, Xia Yanran glanced at the man in the sports car. He had stubbed out the cigarette and seeing her looking over, he stepped on the accelerator and sped away.
When the sports car went past her, Xia Yanran sighed and left with a complicated feeling.
But after walking a few steps, she heard a sharp braking sound from a distance.
Xia Yanran’s heart thumped.
She turned back and frowned when she saw the sports car that had driven ten meters had stopped suddenly.
The sports car stopped there with no sign of any movements.
Xia Yanran pursed her lips and through the car window, she saw the man who was leaning against the steering wheel with both hands on his stomach looking in pain.
Were his stomach problems acting up again?
When they were together, she found that he often did not eat on time and had the bad habit of drinking and staying up late. She corrected him forcibly and during that period, his stomach problems seldom acted up.
She herself had stomach problems, and knew that when it acted up, her organs would be in pain too.
Xia Yanran could not be cold-blooded and leave him to die. She raised her hand and knocked on the car window.
After a while, the car window slowly lowered down.
Xiao Yi raised his head from the steering wheel and his long and slender eyes seemed even more gloomy and dark than usual and were slightly bloodshot. “What?”
Xia Yanran ignored his cold attitude and pointed at his stomach. “Don’t drive if you’re feeling uncomfortable. Take a taxi!”
Xiao Yi pursed his lips and stared at her. “You’re concerned about me?”
Xia Yanran’s hair stood on end by his stare. “I’m just concerned as ordinary friends.”
Xiao Yi’s expression turned cold.
Xia Yanran did not know if she was seeing things, but a trace of hurt seemed to have flashed past his eyes.
“There’s a drugstore across the street. Help me buy some medicine.” After saying that, he leaned against the steering wheel again.
Seeing that he was in pain, Xia Yanran did not think about it too much about it. She turned and went to the drugstore across the street. After buying the medicine, she also brought a cup of water over.
“CEO Xiao!”
The man leaning against the steering wheel did not reply.
“CEO Xiao?”
There was still no response.
Did he faint because of the pain? Xia Yanran pulled open the car door and pulled at the man’s arm. No sooner said than done, the man who had not moved, suddenly grabbed her arm and she fell into his arms.
The cup of water in Xia Yanran’s hand spilled a little.
The man grabbed the cup and medicine from her and threw it into the garbage can outside.
Xia Yanran was lifted onto his thighs, her back pressing against the steering wheel and in the compact space, the strong masculine breath entered her nose.
Xia Yanran’s eyelashes fluttered and before she could say anything, the man stepped on the accelerator.
Xia Yanran looked up and met his upturned eyes. He did not look like he was having stomach problems. It was clear that he was a scheming bastard!
Xia Yanran had no time to pursue about him deceiving her because he had driven the sports car onto the road.
Punching his shoulders, Xia Yanran was furious. “Are you crazy? Stop the car now!”
The man looked down at the woman who was struggling and twisting in his arms and barked out a cold laugh. “You can twist more and the surveillance cameras will show that you are doing exercise.”
His expression did not change when saying that.
Xia Yanran’s face flushed red. “You’re a shameless pervert!”
“Didn’t you see it before?”
Xia Yanran wanted to say something when her phone rang.
Xia Yanran did not answer.
The phone rang again and again.
Xia Yanran had no choice but to take out her phone. Seeing that it was from Wen Qian, Xia Yanran looked at the man who was driving. The man glanced at her phone and a faint smile appeared on his lips. “Oh, did you two hit off?”
The way this man spoke had always been rude and Xia Yanran had long been used to it.
Wasn’t it just a call from Wen Qian? Why should she feel guilty?
Xia Yanran answered the call.
“Miss Xia, are you free this weekend? I have two concert tickets and if you’re free, we can go together…”
Before Wen Qian could finish, Xia Yanran’s phone was snatched away by someone. He then quickly ended the call.
Xia Yanran was a little annoyed. “You’re so rude!”
Xiao Yi threw Xia Yanran’s phone to the front passenger seat and looked down at Xia Yanran. “Your man is a rough man.”
“Can you be even more shameless? How many times do you want me to say, we’ve already broken up!”
Xiao Yi hummed coldly and stopped speaking to Xia Yanran. He stepped on the accelerator and the sports car sped away.
Xia Yanran had to hold on to the man in front of her to keep steady.
The car speed was too fast and she was shocked and confused. “Xiao Yi, why are you driving so fast? Do you want to die? Slow down!”
Tick, tick, tick!
A truck came around the corner and when it was about to crash into them, Xiao Yi made a sharp turn and avoided the truck. Before the color could return to Xia Yanran’s pale face, the car sped away again.
Xia Yanran knew that he was good at driving and used to race in the black market, but he was holding her in his arms and she was really afraid an accident would happen!
Xia Yanran’s stomach was turning over, but the man had no sign of slowing down at all. He was heading for Mountain Pan’s road.
He drove to the top of the mountain and looked at Xia Yanran’s pale face. “Do you want to break up?”
Xia Yanran frowned. She looked at the man’s expressionless face and gritted her teeth. “You lunatic!”
“Do you still want to break up?”
Without waiting for Xia Yanran to say anything, the sports car drove downhill again.
The speed of descending was much faster than going up the mountain. Xia Yanran felt like she was riding a roller coaster. “Stop the car first and let’s have a good talk! Do you want to die, driving like this?!”
Xiao Yi pursed his lips and did not speak. He stepped on the brakes and found that something was wrong.
