His kindness towards her was always so effortless.
Jian Yixue shrank back a little, head down, "Yan Yichen, I’ll find a way to repay you the money later. Thanks for today..."
Hearing her thanks, Yan Yichen’s face darkened instead of being pleased, "Thanks? If I hadn’t happened to co to the hospital to visit a friend and seen you, would you have planned not to tell anything?"
"What’s there to say? Every family has its problems." Jian Yixue smiled bitterly. "This is good too, I’ve seen them clearly, and I won’t be so foolishly devoted in the future."
Yan Yichen felt both angry and distressed. The gentlemanly education he had received since childhood prevented him from getting angry at a girl. After hesitating for a while, he simply raised his hand and tapped Jian Yixue on the forehead, "You really are a worry."
Jian Yixue stepped back to create so distance between them, speaking softly, "You have things to do, right? I’ll take the bus back. I’ll mail the washed clothes to you..."
Seeing her eager to cut ties with him, Yan Yichen was furious.
"Jian Yixue, stop right there!"
The little woman was clearly startled, her steps halted, and she turned back, her eyes filled with obvious unease.
"I’ll drive you ho."
"No need... I don’t want to trouble you."
"Your matters aren’t trouble for ." Yan Yichen said in a low voice, extending his slender, fair, and well-defined fingers to hold her hand, leading her towards the parking lot.
Jian Yixue tried to withdraw her hand, but after a brief struggle found it useless and sensibly gave up.
It was foolish for a woman to compete in strength against a man.
-
Parking lot.
They had just reached the black Audi when a sweet voice chid in, "Yichen, I was just visiting a patient. Oh dear, I didn’t expect it to rain, it’s so hard to get a taxi here! May I ride in your car?"
Yan Yichen and Jian Yixue both turned to see a girl in a white dress smiling brilliantly.
Yan Yichen said indifferently, "Where’s your driver?"
The girl paused, then smiled, "The car broke down, he can’t co over for a while."
Yan Yichen glanced at a nearby red BMW but didn’t expose her lie, "Get in the car."
"Thank you, Yichen!" The girl said joyfully.
Jian Yixue felt a pang of sourness in her heart...
She thought, perhaps Yan Yichen didn’t like her that much, he was generally nice to girls... to her, maybe it was out of etiquette rather than affection...
She was lost in thought when suddenly she heard a loud bang from the car door!
She looked up to see Yan Yichen forcefully closing the passenger side door, leaving the girl in the dress looking bewildered at him.
"Sorry, the passenger seat is reserved only for my mom and my girlfriend." Yan Yichen slightly bowed, speaking elegantly and politely.
He was such a gentleman that it was impossible to get angry at him.
The girl nodded awkwardly, "I see, then I’ll just sit in the back... Oh, and who is this? Oh, Yichen, is she your friend? Hi, I’m Junjun, let’s sit in the back together!"
A "fine" was about to escape Jian Yixue’s lips when Yan Yichen’s words stopped her—
"She’s not sitting with you, she’s sitting in the front."
The girl nad Junjun’s smile faltered.
"Yichen, is she your girlfriend..."
"That’s right, anything wrong with that?"
