“Sure!”
Rong Qi didn’t even pause before agreeing.
Gu Yuyan was shocked by Rong Qi’s audacity. Even if it was to distract those thugs and save her, she couldn’t believe Rong Qi would be so bold. Now, she had to question if this was Rong Qi’s true nature all along.
Gu Yuyan felt a pang of sorrow for Ye Nanshen, feeling it was a shame for him.
‘How could the refined Ye Nanshen ever be a match for Rong Qi, who, despite being a successful entrepreneur, had such questionable conduct?’
Gu Yuyan’s fists clenched tightly, but what happened next had her eyes widening in disbelief.
By the time they were back in Rong Qi’s car, Gu Yuyan still looked at Rong Qi as if she were a demon.
“Out with it,” Rong Qi said, her eyebrows furrowing.
After swallowing hard, Gu Yuyan finally found her voice. “Rong Qi, are you really a woman?”
“What kind of question is that?” Rong Qi chuckled lightly. “What, am I not a girl to you?”
Silently turning her head away, Gu Yuyan couldn’t shake off the shadow that loomed over her heart. They had driven quite a distance, but she still felt like she could hear the screams of those three men.
Those men, contorted and twisted into shapes that defied anatomy, were simply terrifying to look at. If Gu Yuyan hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed that a woman could possess such formidable combat skills.
‘No wonder Gu Ziye feared her. From their very first meeting, Gu Ziye was already battered and bruised. I hadn’t fared any better in our confrontations. Why is this woman more ruthless than men?’
Sitting in the passenger seat, Gu Yuyan occasionally shot suspicious glances at
Rong Qi. “Where are you taking me?”
“What do you think, Miss Gu?” Rong Qi slightly tilted her head, smirking as she drove with one hand.
The car zoomed off like an arrow unleashed from its bow, reaching breakneck speeds in a heartbeat.
Rong Qi relished the feeling; it had been a while since she drove. Lu
Chengzhou’s limited edition Lamborghini Veneno was quite satisfying to handle. However, as the car accelerated, Gu Yuyan screamed in fright.
“Ah! Slow down!” Gu Yuyan’s head thudded against the window, startled beyond words.
“You’ll drive if I slow down?” Rong Qi asked.
Vigorously shaking her head, Gu Yuyan held onto the overhead handle, her eyes fixed on the road ahead. She had been drinking, and after the terrifying ordeal, her legs felt like jelly. She couldn’t drive in such a condition.
Despite the breakneck speed, Rong Qi’s driving was steady. Gradually, Gu
Yuyan relaxed, although her grip on the handle didn’t loosen.
“Hey… When you drop me off, don’t say anything weird to my parents,” Gu
Yuyan said, her voice laced with complicated emotions.
“I don’t have time to talk to your parents,” Rong Qi replied, blunt as ever. “What’s with your attitude? Can’t you speak nicely?” Gu Yuyan was annoyed. “This is how I talk to a love rival. Like it or not, deal with it,” Rong Qi retorted. “Are you doing this out of spite? To get back at me?” Gu Yuyan questioned. “Isn’t it obvious?” Rong Qi replied.
“Are you jealous? Do you think I threaten your position?” Gu Yuyan continued asking.
“You’re overthinking. He only has eyes for me.” Rong Qi answered.
“You’re awfully arrogant. Never mind, since you saved me, I don’t want to argue with you.” Gu Yuyan turned her head to gaze at the night sky through the window.
Half an hour later, Rong Qi dropped Gu Yuyan off at the Gu residence. After Gu Yuyan got out of the car, her face was still pale. Gu Yuyan looked at Rong Qi and asked, “Would you like to come in for some tea?”
“No,” Rong Qi coldly declined.
“I mean, you could accompany me inside. I can’t really explain my current state to my parents…” Gu Yuyan tried to persuade Rong Qi.
Rong Qi looked down contemplatively. “Since you’re asking, I suppose I can make an exception. Fine, I’ll come in for some tea.”
Unfastening her seatbelt, Rong Qi locked the car and led the way into the house.
Gu Yuyan stood there, stomping her foot in frustration.. She cursed inwardly, ‘Who was asking for your favor? Ugh! So shameless!’
