Chapter 300 - 301: Inside the Car (1)
She didn’t want to let Xiaochen see Qin Zhiyou’s face, or know his identity. She only wanted to do her job well and didn’t want the reputation of Hanhai to affect her progress, nor did she want to become the subject of their gossip.
Nor did she want Qin Zhiyou to know that she had been driven there by Qin Zhigu. Qin Zhigu was like a thorn in Qin Zhiyou’s heart. Her past romance with Qin Zhigu was like a sword hanging over his head, ready to drop at any time.
Also, Qin Zhiyou’s gaze was clearly puzzled at that moment. He frowned slightly and looked at Lu Weixi’s scared eyes, ready to look back–
At the same time, her mobile phone rang again. And in the rear-view mirror, Qin Zhigu, who was gradually getting closer, was making a call. Obviously, the call had come from him!
Lu Weixi’s mind was racing. She bravely reached out with both hands to hold Qin Zhiyou’s head, to prevent him from turning around. Instead, she leaned in closer to him.
Qin Zhiyou was a bit stunned. He and Lu Weixi had been married for many years, and this was certainly the first time she had initiated a kiss. He was a bit surprised but also puzzled.
The phone in the back seat was still ringing, and Qin Zhigu was getting closer and closer. Fortunately, the phone screen was facing down, otherwise, Qin Zhiyou would have seen Qin Zhigu’s name on the call display with just a glance.
Qin Zhiyou tried to turn around again, and without any alternative, Lu Weixi pushed herself further into his arms, mimicking his usual style, which was not limited to a peck.
Lu Weixi watched from the corner of her eye, Qin Zhigu was indeed getting closer. And it appeared that he had noticed Secretary Wang and Xiaochen, and Qin Zhiyou’s car.
In an instant, Qin Zhigu seemed to understand something. He quietly clenched his fingers, stopped moving forward, and started to walk away. And the ringing on the back seat of her car finally stopped.
Lu Weixi finally breathed a sigh of relief. Once the tension left her body, she suddenly realized something.
Oh god, she had been caught between a rock and a hard place. She had blocked Qin Zhiyou’s suspicions out of desperation. The result was evident, and so was the consequence.
The awakened sleeping lion would not easily let her escape. At least for now, she felt that Qin Zhiyou had the intention to take it further.
Lu Weixi wanted to leave, but Qin Zhiyou obviously disagreed. He rapped on the car window, his voice hoarse, “Secretary Wang, you help her with her issue.”
During the wait earlier, he learned from the conversation between Secretary Wang and Xiaochen that she was only there for an inspection of the completed construction. Although Secretary Wang wasn’t familiar with construction, he had worked with him for many years and was good at pretending and dealing with clients.
Knowing that Secretary Wang would continue to get along with Xiaochen, he felt happy and instantly gave a cheerful nod..
