22 Unwilling to

Yan Xiruo took a deep breath. She suppressed the inexplicable ball of anger in her heart and tried to talk to him calmly. "Mister, we are strangers who just met by chance. Furthermore, good things don't seem to happen every time I bump into you. Can you not read too much into things?"

Indeed, he looked extremely masculine. He had the capital, coldness, maturity, and strength to charm women. However, she already had someone in her heart. Even if he had ruined her innocence, she didn't bear any other thoughts about him. Furthermore, they had known each other for only two days.

Ye Juemo extended his slender and big hand toward Yan Xiruo. "What should I do? I have already noticed you."

"Please let me out where I can get a cab easily."

Ye Juemo looked at Yan Xiruo's delicate figure. Her hair was slightly damp and she was in a nightgown. There was an indescribable temptation to her. He curved his thin lips and let out low laughter.

A trace of evilness flashed past his dark pupils.

This woman who wanted to continuously draw the boundaries clearly between them was quite interesting.

After remaining silent for a while, Ye Juemo broke the silence first. He asked in his low and deep voice, "It's hard to get a cab in this area. Where are you heading to? I'll give you a lift."

Yan Xiruo turned her head and looked at him with puzzlement. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something when he said cynically, "If I wanted to rape you, do you think you can escape from me?"

What he meant was that right now, she was not yet worthy of him using such a means.

Yan Xiruo didn't argue with him anymore. After telling him the address, she looked out of the car window again.

Relaxing English songs played in the car. He turned on the heater. Not too long later, the overly-tired Yan Xiruo slowly closed her eyes amid the wild thoughts running in her mind.

The address Yan Xiruo told him was an apartment that the old man, herself, and Lu Jingchen had bought in Mei Garden. Mei Garden was a rich and luxurious area in An City. The people who lived there were wealthy, and most of them were part of the upper-class society.

At that time, her roommate had ridiculed her for this, saying that she had relied on the Lu family to transform from a low-class nobody to a high-class somebody.

Ye Juemo drove to Mei Garden. He looked at the sleeping Yan Xiruo and didn't wake her up. He took a thin blanket from the trunk and covered her body.

The rain had stopped. He got out of the car with cigarettes and a lighter.

He stood upright and leaned against the head of the car. He flicked open the cover, and his handsome and exquisite face leaned close to the flames. The cigarette instantly lit up. Amid the smoke, his chiseled and distinct face gradually grew deeper.

After he'd taken a few puffs, a couple's laughter suddenly traveled from behind him.

"Chen, are you really going to let me visit your wife's and your new house?" The woman's voice sounded flirtatious.

"Is your wife really not coming back tonight?"

"No one picked up the phone at home. She should have returned to school."

The two of them walked past Ye Juemo. The woman saw Ye Juemo's looks and luxurious car and even threw him a flirtatious look. As a result, Lu Jingchen was unhappy.
