7 I Promise I Won't Kill You

As Wen Fucheng approached, Ying Jing's face instantly turned red.

Fortunately, the night hid the embarrassment on her face.

She didn't think he had any intention of kissing her in such an ambiguous situation.

Colorful neon lights slipped into the car and flashed across the girl's face.

The warmth of his fingertips pressed the tissue paper between her brows.

"Wipe yourself."

Before the tissue could fall from her face, Ying Jing reached out and pressed it down.

The tissue that was attached to the bridge of her nose covered most of her face. She looked into his eyes through the translucence of the tissue paper..

Ying Jing was so immersed in her nervousness that she did not notice the unnatural look that flashed across the man's eyes.

She looked down and wiped the sweat from her face.

Wen Fucheng instructed the driver in front to lower the temperature.

Ying Jing quickly stopped him. "No, we'll be there soon. That's all, thank you." She sat beside him during the meal and heard him cough several times as she picked up food. His voice was very soft, but it could not escape Ying Jing's eyes. She was always paying attention to his movements.

The green veins in his eyes were a little obvious.

How tired must he be!

He had to rush from the Imperial Capital to Hucheng just to check on Wen Yue's girlfriend. She was very envious of Wen Yue.

In her previous life, Wen Fucheng's business empire was very powerful. Because of her, the Wen family's businesses finally retreated from China and focused on expanding overseas. That was how the male lead, Lu Zishu, found a loophole and took over almost 70% of the market share.

She hoped it was not too late in this life. He could not miss so much because of her.

Ying Jing looked at him quietly. He was so vigilant. He had sensed it since he got into the car and didn't expose her. He even let her look as much as she wanted.

This time he appeared to her early.

Would she look at him more?

For the first time, the man, who had always been a strategist, fell into a state of uncertainty about his appearance.

What was the point of competing outright with Lu Zishu? He had already challenged him in his previous life and still lost terribly. In this life, he could only gradually open her heart and slowly shift her attention to him.

The two in the backseat had their own thoughts.

When they arrived at their destination, Ying Jing got out of the car and was about to leave when she suddenly thought of something.

She turned and walked to the car. The window remained lowered. She bent down by the side of the road, buffed by the night, and poked her head through the window. Her eyes were bright and sly.

With a faint smile, she said, "Thank you for sending me here, Mr. Wen. Have you been to Shanghai recently? I know a particularly famous Shanghai restaurant. If you're free, I'll treat you to a meal to express my gratitude."

For the first time in her life, Ying Jing took the initiative. Once she set a precedent, there would definitely be countless times in the future. After all, he was more important to her than her dignity.

The sweat on her hands was no less than before. Ying Jing was gambling on whether he would agree. In this life, she couldn't wait for him to be tempted. She would take the initiative.

Logically speaking, Wen Fucheng wouldn't deal with a young lady like Ying Jing since he was so busy.

The driver was also curious. He looked straight ahead and his ears were already standing up.

With a click, the car door opened. While waiting, Wen Fucheng took the initiative to get out of the car. Previously, she didn't feel that he was so tall in front of her, absorbing the air around her.

He stared at her in silence.

Cars weaved in and out of the side, the wind whipping her hair.

She held her breath in the thin air.

His fair hand held the phone in front of her.

He said, "Save your number?"

Ying Jing took the phone and unlocked it. There was no password. She quickly saved the number and name.

A low voice came from above.

"I will return to the capital tomorrow."

After he said the last word, she happened to have saved the number. His answer meant that he could not eat with her.

Well, it didn't matter. At least this time they knew each other early, didn't they?

Ying Jing pretended that it didn't matter.

"It's a bit of a shame. We'll have to wait until the next time… " She was interrupted.

He pulled the phone from her hand.

"So, I'll see you in three days."

Ying Jing looked up in shock. The man had already turned around and gotten into the car. At his signal, the driver started the car and it slowly slid away.

Ying Jing's gaze followed the car.

He had agreed.

Ying Jing skipped all the way to Uncle Li, who had been waiting for her.

"Why are you so happy today, Miss?"

"Of course I'm happy. Because today I'm …" She stopped smiling. Wait. Had she just forgotten something important?

She saved her number to Wen Fucheng's phone, but there was no way to contact him!

What if he was just pretending to be polite? Wouldn't she be doomed if he didn't contact her?

Ying Jing slumped gloomily in her seat.

"Uncle Li, am I at odds with love?" It hadn't gone well in both lifetimes.

God, on account of how badly I died in my previous life, could you not let Cupid's hands tremble when he shoots arrows?

"Miss is so cute and pretty. You're still young. It's normal to meet bad people. In the future, you'll meet someone you really like."

Ying Jing listened to Uncle Li's words; he was close to saying Lu Zishu's name.

"Uncle Li, you're right. I'll meet someone I really like in the future. But it has nothing to do with Lu Zishu. Don't mention his name in front of me in the future."

She would distance herself from the male and female leads of the original novel and pursue a sweet relationship with Wen Fucheng.

Ying Jing fantasized about her beautiful future and arrived home.

And saw another familiar car in the garage.

"Is Brother back?"

"The young master came back tonight. He was going to call you, but he heard that I was picking you up. He said that he wanted you to look for him in the study."

Go to the study?

She would have to be lectured again.

The two people in charge of the Ying family were Father Ying and his elder brother, Ying Zenan.

Compared to his father, Ying Jing was more afraid of Ying Zenan.

A father was doting but a brother was stern.

However, after experiencing everything in her previous life, she knew that Ying Zenan was stubborn but soft-hearted. He clearly said that he wouldn't help her, but in the end, he became the last of the Ying family to perish because of his confrontation with the male lead, Lu Zishu.

A cold cell awaited him.

Her brother had gambled his life for her. This time she would not repeat the mistake.

Absolutely not.

Ying Jing had committed suicide, and Ying Zenan was investigating at a foreign branch. The Ying family had suppressed the news tightly, but it did not stop someone from reporting to him as soon as he landed.

Ying Jing, who was standing in front of the door, took a deep breath and pushed open the door.

Ying Zenan saw her and looked up from a pile of papers.

He slowly closed his notebook and beckoned to the girl at the door.

He half smiled.

"Come here. Brother promises not to beat you to death."

Ying Jing was speechless.
