A sharp braking sound rang out.
Gong Yi looked up and watched as the girl steadied herself. She had rushed onto the road hastily and was almost hit by a car.
The driver rolled down the windows and stuck his head out, cursing, “Hey, are your blind? Are you trying to kill yourself?”
Bai Beibei immediately took a few steps back and apologized softly in a frightened voice, “I’m sorry, I’m so terribly sorry.”
The driver in the car was a man in his forties. His eyes swept over Bai Beibei’s delicate face and across her petite body, While the damp school uniform wasn’t particularly flattering, he could see her young and soft body underneath it and this was enough to arouse dirty thoughts.
“What’s wrong, little one? Are you going to take a cab? Come on, get into my car. I’ll drive you there,” he said.
His expression clouded over and he looked at Bai Beibei with a lecherous gaze. Seeing this, Bai Beibei stepped back onto the pavement cautiously and began to protest, “There’s really no need to do that.”
She immediately started walking hurriedly but the man in the car did not give up. He followed Bai Beibei in his car, “Little girl, come on. I won’t hurt you. I’ll take care of you and buy you food and jewelry.”
Bai Beibei shook her head. All she wanted was to take a taxi as quickly as she could.
As she watched the endless stream of cars on the street, she felt her heart fill with despair. Who could possibly help her out of this situation?
Gong Yi, who had been watching this unfold before his very eyes, had wanted to leave without helping her. However, he knew deep down that if he left, the wretched car owner would drag Bai Beibei into the car and take advantage of her.
The events of the fateful night in the bathroom flashed in his mind once more. Her face had been strewn with tears and she looked as pitiful as a girl could be.
Gong Yi frowned, his brain wrapped in turmoil. Fine, since he’d slept with her once, he would do her a favour and help her out, he thought.
“Ding!” Gong Yi pressed on his horn.
“Who is it? How dare you interrupt me!” the man cursed as he turned his head to look at Gong Yi. Noticing the licence plate on Gong Yi’s Lamborghini, he fell silent and immediately raced out of the scene.
Gong Yi inched the car forward and rolled down the car window. He looked at Bai Beibei, “Get in the car.”
Noticing familiar tones in his voice, Bai Beibei turned and looked at him, “Brother-in-law?”
Brother-in-law?
Gong Yi didn’t feel too good about this title.
His narrow eyes scanned her from head to toe. She stood very straight, crossing her slender legs and pulling at the corner of her shirt helplessly. Her hair was wet and stuck to her cheek. The light drizzle was making it difficult for her to open her eyes. Her eyes blinked softly and the two rows of lush eyelashes that lined her brown eyes fluttered like the beautiful wings on a butterfly. He now understood why the man had suddenly decided to offer her a ride earlier.
“Get in the car, I’ll drive you,” Gong Yi said.
Bai Beibei’s eyes lit up, “Really? Thank you so much, brother-in-law.”
She slid into the backseat.
“So, where are we headed?” Gong Yi asked.
“To XX Hospital, please. Is it possible to drive faster?” Bai Beibei asked.
Gong Yi nodded and stepped on the accelerator.
Bai Beibei’s settled into her seat and felt herself calm down. She felt a chill on her body and immediately sneezed.
Gong Yi pursed his lips and turned on the heater in the car. As he shifted back into his seat, he looked at the rearview mirror and he froze at the sight he saw.
His eyes focused on her chest. He knew Bai Beibei was wearing a vest, but a girl her age should have been wearing a bra. Gong Yi looked away and slid his large palm across the steering wheel. The buttery feel of the steering wheel reminded him of the sensation he’d felt in the bathroom that night. His fingers pulsed as if the feeling of what he’d touched still lingered on his hand. He felt his body heat up.
“Here, put it on,” Gong Yi handed Bai Beibei the windbreaker that had been on the passenger seat beside him.
“Thank you, but I’m alright. My body is wet and I’ll just end up getting your clothes wet,” Bai Beibei shook her head in protest.
“Are you sure you don’t want to put it on?”
“Hm?” Bai Beibei looked back at him in confusion.
“Chest.”
Bai Beibei looked down at her chest.
“Ah!” she let out a soft cry and immediately covered her chest with her small hands.
She looked at Gong Yi warily. His eyes were focused on the road and he did not look at her. She blushed and put the windbreaker on quickly.
“Thank you,” she said softly as she lowered her head.
Silence ensued for a long while before Gong Yi broke the tension, “Why didn’t you take the bus?”
Bai Beibei bit her wet lower lip with her teeth, “I’ve taken the bus before but somehow I lost my way.”
She didn’t know her way around. She had grown up in the countryside and had never travelled this far into the city. She had just arrived a month ago and the city must have appeared really big to her.
The Bai family had enrolled her into a university and on the first day of school, she had taken the wrong bus. The bus driver had demanded that she get off at the last stop and when she did, she found that she was lost.
Bai Beibei sat on the bench on the street for three days, with no food, no water and no one to talk to her. It was only after this ordeal that Bai Shida picked her up and drove her home.
When she got home, Qian Lan had scolded her, hurling hurtful phrases like ‘little vixen’ at her. She had assumed that Bai Beibei had been fooling around with men in the city. Before she could explain, Qian Lan slapped her across her face. After that incident, Bai Beibei no longer dared to take the bus. She lived her life carefully and tried not to make any mistakes.
She lowered her small head. Gong Yi could not see the expression on her face and her small body seemed to be overwhelmed by his windbreaker. She was only eighteen – she was still a really young girl.
“Let me give you a tip then. Before you take the bus, take a look at the bus stop signs. They’ll clearly show the route of the buses and it’s more than likely that there will be buses that will take you to your desired destination,” Gong Yi said.
Bus stop signs?
Bai Beibei’s eyes flashed with gratitude, “Thank you brother-in-law, I’ll be sure to remember that.”
Gong Yi pursed his lips and remained silent.
After Gong Yi pulled the Lamborghini up at the entrance of XX Hospital, Bai Beibei opened the door.
“Wait a moment, brother-in-law,” Bai Beibei said.
Gong Yi looked back and saw Bai Beibei using her small hands to wipe the water stains off the leather seat she’d sat on.
“I’m so sorry, brother-in-law. The seat is wet because of me. I’ll try to dry it now,” Bai Beibei smiled shyly at him.
When she smiled, two small dimples appeared at the sides of her face. They were faintly discernible and very sweet looking. Gong Yi peaked at the car mirrors. Bai Beibei was leaning into the car and the short skirt on her waist was hiked up, revealing her milky white thighs. His gaze stopped short. This position she was in now reminded him of what had happened that night in the bathroom. She had been bent over, with him standing behind her and her small body rocking with his thrusts.
What the hell? Why was he thinking about that all the time?
Gong Yi grew irritated and he said angrily, “Don’t bother wiping it down. I’ll get someone to change the seat tomorrow.”
