Luosang looked at the tall and sturdy man who walked before her, wearing only a shirt. As she prepared to give his jacket back to him, Nian Junting abruptly stopped, slightly turned his body to give her a sideways glance, then said, “Do you think I care about those three words? Do I look like such a narrow-minded person?”
Luosang didn’t know how to respond.
Out of shame, Lu Kang as Nian Junting’s assistant really wanted to cover his own face at that moment.
Boss, you truly are a narrow-minded person. How could you say that so confidently?
“Luosang, are you okay?” Through the shadow of night, Yan Su quickly walked over. She was wearing a simply-designed pair of ripped jeans and a baseball jacket with raindrops sparkling on her black and shiny ponytail. A few moist and tousled locks of hair were sticking on her delicate face, making her look beautiful and captivating.
Lu Kang’s heart skipped a beat. He quietly walked to Nian Junting and ventured to say in a low voice, “Mr. Nian, Miss. Luo didn’t only make herself prettier. Her friend is pretty too.”
Nian Junting expressionlessly glanced at his assistant.
“I’m alright,” said Luosang. She felt that her heart was warmed. Ever since Zhong Yi betrayed her, she didn’t dare to believe any friend. But now she was somehow touched when seeing Yan Su coming at her, wearing soaked clothes. “Why didn’t you bring an umbrella?” She asked.
“I didn’t bring my umbrella when I left the dorm today. Earlier, I left my work in a hurry, so I didn’t have the time to borrow one.” while speaking, Yan Su was looking the two young men beside Luosang from head to toe. She felt that the two neatly dressed men don’t look like bad guys.
As his boss didn’t seem to want to talk, Lu Kang stepped up and explained smilingly, “Hello, we’re Ms. Luo’s friends. We happened to meet her in a club.”
Yan Su turned to Luosang. As Luosang nodded, she finally stopped worrying.
“Mr. Nian, thank you for helping me today. It’s late, we should head back,” said Luosang. She took off the jacket and handed it to Nian Junting.
Nian Junting stared at her exposed shoulders for a while, then responded with, “Put it on. Where do you live? I’ll drive you.”
Luosang paused and knitted her brows. The encounter between her and Nian Junting tonight was an accident. She didn’t want Nian Junting to be a part of her current life. After all, they lived in two different worlds.
“This place is far away from downtown. It’s not safe for two pretty girls like you to take an Uber at night. Besides, it seems like the rain is going to fall again soon. You don’t have an umbrella. It’s better for us to just drive you to where you live. We’re all friends after all.” Lu Kang smiled friendly and said, “Please wait here, I’ll go get the car.”
After he finished talking, he quickly walked toward the parking lot without waiting for Luosang to respond.
Right at that moment, a few tiny drops of rain fell from the sky.
Nian Justing bent over slightly to rub Xiaosi’s soft fur with one hand with the other hand resting in his pocket. He didn’t say anything. Luosang and Yan Su glanced at each other, both remaining silent.
In the weird silence, Nian Junting knitted his brows tighter and tighter.
Didn’t Luosang talk a lot about Xiaosi with Lu Kang just now? I’m the one she likes, but why isn’t she saying anything now?
How’s she gonna chase me then?
About five minutes later, Lu Kang showed up driving a black Maybach. The unique design of the car made Yan Su show a surprised look in her eyes. She didn’t know much about cars, but she understood that this car would be one of the newest luxury vehicles on the market, as she hadn’t seen any car like it before.
“Is this a new car?” asked Luosang smilingly.
“Em,” Nian Junting responded.
Lu Kang got out of the car to open the backseat door. Nian Junting bent over to get into the car with Xiao Si.
Luosang glanced at the empty front seat. Yan Su was there, so she had no reason to take the front seat and leave Yan Su to sit in the back seat with Nian Junting. Therefore, she had no choice but to take the backseat as well.
