Chapter 123: Good Deeds Today
Chapter 123
She found it strange, "Shen Huaichu? What\'s he doing standing there?"
Shen Huaichu was waiting at the entrance for the driver to bring the spare car.
A dark red sports car stopped in front of him. Shen Huaichu frowned slightly as the window lowered, revealing Jing Yi\'s small face.
Shen Huaichu instinctively relaxed his brow as he heard Jing Yi say, "Mr. Shen, are you waiting for a car? Do you need a ride?" This was her good deed for the day.
Shen Huaichu looked at her with a hint of surprise in his eyes, as if he hadn\'t expected Jing Yi to approach and speak to him.
Jing Yi, holding the steering wheel, was already getting impatient. It was tiring to keep her head tilted like this, and this guy was still hemming and hawing.
Her voice carried a note of dissatisfaction, "Are you coming or not? If you don\'t say anything, I\'m leaving!" She sat up straight, about to press the window button when Shen Huaichu stepped forward and said coolly, "Thank you for your trouble, Miss Jing."
Jing Yi rolled her eyes and muttered under her breath, "Good that you know it\'s trouble." At the same time, she pressed the button to open the gull-wing door for him.
The moment he sat in the car, Shen Huaichu\'s hands began to tremble involuntarily. He hated fast cars and despised the roaring and friction sounds they made. He shouldn\'t have gotten in.
He clenched his fists tightly to hide it, trying his best to appear natural. As a result, Jing Yi saw Shen Huaichu sitting next to her with a cold expression as soon as he got in the car.
She said helplessly, "Mr. Shen, I drive very steadily!" So there\'s no need to be so nervous.
She knew the importance of "safety first" among the many rules of the road, and even though she liked racing, she wouldn\'t do it on public streets, would she?
What kind of idiot would rev their engine in the city center, thinking they were so cool driving fast?
Meanwhile, when the driver came out with the car, he saw his boss getting into someone else\'s vehicle and looked a bit confused.
Wait, what? Did Mr. Shen mistake that car for the spare? That\'s impossible! Mr. Shen can\'t even have sports cars!
At the same time, Huarui Group employees who had just gotten off work also witnessed this scene. They stared with wide eyes in surprise and began frantically spreading gossip in their small group chat.
[Breaking news! Breaking news! I just saw Mr. Shen get into a beautiful woman\'s car!]
[What! Impossible, I haven\'t seen any women around Mr. Shen since he\'s been here!]
[Did I miss something? Didn\'t I just leave the company?]
[It\'s true! I saw it with my own eyes, and it was a beautiful woman driving a supercar!]
[That\'s so cool! Is she taking Mr. Shen home?]
[So this is the type Mr. Shen likes?]
[Little Li, did you see what she looked like?!]
[I didn\'t notice, by the time I saw, Mr. Shen was already in the car!]
The Huarui Group employees\' small group chat erupted into heated discussion.
"Mm, you can take the car back."
Shen Huaichu hung up the phone, staring ahead with the same cold expression.
After looking at him for a while, Jing Yi had gotten used to it. She asked curiously, "Mr. Shen, is your car broken?" Shen Huaichu made a sound of agreement, then, seeming to recall what Jing Yi had said when she hit him before, he repeated, "The car had some issues."
Jing Yi wasn\'t wrong; she really did drive very steadily. Shen Huaichu gradually relaxed.
"Do you know about the upcoming car race?"
Shen Huaichu\'s cool voice broke the silence in the car. Jing Yi, keeping her eyes on the road ahead, replied, "Yes, I\'ve signed up for it."
Shen Huaichu frowned slightly, "Why do you all like these kinds of racing games?"
You all? Who else?
"I don\'t know about \'all,\' but if you\'re just asking me, I like the feeling of gripping the steering wheel."
Shen Huaichu didn\'t say anything, so Jing Yi continued on her own, "Actually, hobbies are just inexplicable things. If you asked me to fully explain why I like it, I couldn\'t really say."
She turned the steering wheel, "What? Do you think it\'s too dangerous?" Jing Yi wasn\'t surprised; nine out of ten people would think that way, including the racers themselves.
Shen Huaichu hesitated, then said coolly, "Just curious."
Jing Yi\'s lips curved upward, "Mr. Shen, you seem to be speaking much more diplomatically." Shen Huaichu pressed his lips together without responding.
A glimmer of amusement flashed in Jing Yi\'s eyes, "Sometimes I wonder if my hobby is too dangerous. If I were a parent, would I allow my child to do this?"
"Then why did you suddenly stop worrying about them?"
Jing Yi looked at the road ahead, the dimple at the corner of her mouth clearly visible. The last rays of the setting sun fell on her lips, making her look warm and beautiful.
"Actually, it\'s nothing special, I just gained more confidence." Concern and support weren\'t mutually exclusive, and that was Jing Yi\'s greatest source of confidence.
Jing Yi looked at the road ahead and suddenly realized something. The car slowed down.
"Um, Mr. Shen, where\'s your house?"
She had been so caught up in the conversation that she forgot to ask Shen Huaichu for directions...
Shen Huaichu had clearly just realized this too. He coughed lightly, looking a bit uncomfortable, "Turn right up ahead."
Jing Yi increased her speed slightly, turned right, and soon arrived at the entrance of a villa complex.
The sports car came to a stop. Jing Yi turned to look at Shen Huaichu, "Mr. Shen, I\'ll drop you off here." She looked at the villa buildings in front. The sky had darkened, with only the street lamps lit.
Shen Huaichu got out of the car and said coolly, "Thank you for the ride today, Miss Jing." It was the first time a girl had driven him home.
He didn\'t hurry to turn and leave. After a pause, he said seriously, "About last time, I want to formally apologize to Miss Jing."
"I\'m sorry for not only causing you to get hurt but also for suspecting you, and about the gift matter, I apologize."
Aliali: 67358284d72ede93494505f5Hearing Shen Huaichu\'s apology, Jing Yi was stunned for a moment. Then, realizing what was happening, the corners of her mouth turned up, "Indeed, Shen Huaichu, you really have become better at talking."
Could it be that he learned to change after getting hit? If she had known, she would have hit him earlier.
Shen Huaichu pressed his lips together, feeling a hint of embarrassment: "......" He wasn\'t mute.
Jing Yi turned the steering wheel, preparing to leave, and Shen Huaichu also turned to go.
"Shen Huaichu!" He stopped in his tracks and turned back. Jing Yi leaned out of the car window, smiling with her eyes curved into crescents, "Next time your car breaks down, don\'t just stand stupidly by the roadside. It\'s dangerous!"
Shen Huaichu stiffened, his expression a bit helpless, "Miss Jing, I\'m a man."
Jing Yi raised an eyebrow. Boys need to protect themselves too. Didn\'t he worry about being kidnapped, standing there looking like that?
After saying this, she waved at Shen Huaichu, turned the steering wheel, and drove away.
Night fell, and the street lamps along the road emitted a warm glow. Jing Yi\'s slightly curled hair fluttered gently in the breeze. She smiled, her eyes curving, her dimple shallow, making her look even more radiant with her rosy lips and white teeth.
Shen Huaichu watched the sports car disappear into the distance, his heart beating once, then again.
