"When it comes to environmental protection, we have to start from the bottom." Ye Huanyan blurted out these words to fool him. After thinking about it, she was afraid that he would not believe her, so she quickly said seriously, "It's rush hour now. The bus and subway are much faster than driving. Really."
"Let me send you. I have something to tell you..."
Su Nianhua did not look very good. It was as if he had not slept all night. Upon closer inspection, there were some dark circles under his eyes.
Ye Huanyan was a little soft-hearted, but when she thought of Ling Han, her heart trembled for no reason. She raised her wrist to look at the time and hurriedly said, "I don't have time. I have to catch the bus. Let's talk about it next time."
She turned around and left Su Nianhua behind her.
To her, old love was actually a thick and colorful stroke in her youth. It was just that after turning the page, people had to enter a new world, a new circle of friends, and a new life. Until now, when she thought of the boy in the depths of her memory, she could no longer feel the pain of that time. Perhaps her heart was too fragile to bear at that time, but it did not matter now. Or perhaps the medicine of time was really effective. The scars were healed, and not a trace of a scar could be seen.
Looking at Ye Huanyan's figure running away in her high heels, the loneliness in Su Nianhua's eyes was far greater than the guilt.
In his memory, Ye Huanyan seemed to be the little girl who wore a suspender dress and white sneakers and chased after him, begging him to teach her how to play tennis. Her grades were terrible, her skin was thick, and she was clingy.
Ten years. After all, it had been ten years. You can't expect her to still be waiting for you in the same place as before, right?
At the window on the second floor of the Ling family villa, a cold light flashed through the gap in the curtains. The man withdrew his gaze, and the corners of his mouth curved into a satisfied smile. This woman seemed to have learned her lesson. She also knew that she could not casually get too close to other men under his watch.
But what if they left the villa area? What would happen?
Thinking of this, Ling Han's brows furrowed. He tugged at the bow tie on his neck and impatiently walked around the room for a while. Finally, he turned around and strode downstairs.
Ye Huanyan hurriedly ran to the bus stop. As soon as the bus on route 42 left, its butt was facing Ye Huanyan. No matter how much she ran and shouted with the white handbag in her hand, the bus didn't stop. It turned the corner in front of her and disappeared without a trace.
Su Nianhua's car slowly caught up from behind. He rolled down the window of the passenger seat and said, "The bus has left. Why don't you take my car first? I'll only send you to your workplace. Nothing will happen."
Ye Huanyan frowned as she looked at the sports car in front of her. She was so conflicted that her heart was about to explode.
If she sat in his car and was found out by Ling Han, she would be in big trouble. If she didn't sit in his car, she would definitely be late for the next shift. Being late meant that Ling Han would make a fuss about it, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
Balance of two evils …
This place was very far from the villa. Ling Han wouldn't find out, right?
She looked up at the sports car with a fluke heart. Her fingers by her side were already restless.
Suddenly, a cloud of dust rose from the roadside. A black MPV passed by Su Nianhua's royal blue sports car. Then, there was a sharp screech of brakes. The tires rolled over the ground, leaving two rows of clear white marks. After the sound of the door opening, a man's voice came from the direction of the MPV.
"Secretary Ye, did you miss the bus? Why don't I give you a ride? "
Ye Huanyan's face paled. Her fluke just now seemed to have nowhere to hide under Ling Han's cold gaze.
Ling Han was wearing a well-tailored black suit. His back was straight, his legs were long, and his shoes were shiny. This elite outfit made Su Nianhua frown deeply. "Yan Yan, he …"
"That, he's my boss. Since we're on the way, I won't trouble you. I'll go first."
Ye Huanyan interrupted him and hurriedly ran to the MPV in front. Without saying a word, she opened the door to the front passenger seat and sat in obediently.
Ling Han stood outside the car door for a few seconds. His cold gaze swept over the man wearing sunglasses in the sports car. It seemed to be the same person as the one from last night. Then, intentionally or unintentionally, he glanced at the license plate number and firmly memorized those few numbers in his heart.
He gave a half-smile to Su Nianhua, then turned around and got into the car.
The car was very quiet. Ye Huanyan was still holding half a piece of bread in her hand. She was afraid of dirtying the expensive leather seats, so she hurriedly wrapped it into a ball and stuffed it into her mouth. Her cheeks instantly swelled up, and it was difficult for her to move.
"Not bad. You're two-faced and two-faced. If I hadn't shown up just now, would you have already gotten into his car?"
Ye Huanyan's expression froze. She wanted to explain something, but her mouth was stuffed with bread, so she couldn't say anything for a moment. She could only forcefully chew and swallow. After a long time, she finally swallowed the bread, but it was choked in her throat. She had no choice but to desperately stroke her chest to catch her breath.
Ling Han didn't hear her response, so he was a little annoyed. When he turned his head, he saw that her face was blue and she looked like she couldn't breathe. He immediately widened his eyes and growled, "What are you doing?"
She lowered her head for a long time before a word came out from between her lips.
"Water …"
Ling Han held the steering wheel with one hand and opened the storage compartment between the two seats with the other. He took out a bottle of water that he had already unscrewed and taken a sip from and handed it over.
Ye Huanyan gulped down a few mouthfuls and finally swallowed the lump of bread that was stuck in her throat. She took a deep breath and then burped …
"You …" Ling Han was speechless.
A woman who could put her life in danger just by drinking water was probably rare in this world.
Ye Huanyan thought that he was disgusted that her burping was polluting the air in the car. She hurriedly found the window control button and opened the front passenger window to ventilate it.
The weather at the end of summer and the beginning of autumn always caught people off guard. Now that she had just opened the car door, the cold wind blew in her face. Ye Huanyan instantly sneezed a few times in a row.
Ling Han's brows furrowed slightly as he said coldly.
"You want to freeze me to death so that you can be with that kid as soon as possible, right?"
Ye Huanyan pursed her lips and awkwardly closed the window.
Her body gradually warmed up.
"You're so stupid that I have nothing to say."
Ling Han didn't look at her and only left her a cold sentence. Then he didn't speak again for the rest of the journey.
Ye Huanyan slightly adjusted her sitting position and leaned against the leather seat. She was lost in thought as she looked out the window. At first, she was a little afraid that Ling Han would say something sarcastic, but after a while, he didn't do anything. Gradually, sleepiness overwhelmed her and she fell asleep.
It had been a long time since she and Ling Han had interacted in the same space peacefully like this. It was as if ever since that incident, he would get angry whenever he saw her. He started to hate her for no reason. No matter what she did, it was wrong. No matter what she did, it was wrong.
There was a light snoring sound beside him. Ling Han couldn't help but glance at her from the corner of his eyes. Her little mouth was slightly pouted as she muttered in her sleep. The sound of wind blowing through the car window could be heard intermittently.
"Big Brother Ling Han …"
Ling Han's expression froze. It seemed that he hadn't heard her call him that in a long time.
