Chapter 652: Ji Weitian, do you like me?
"Ah—" Before Ji Weitian could finish her sentence, she was stuffed into the car by Qin Nanyu, who then forcefully shut the car door.
She was about to get out when Qin Nanyu got into the car, "Buckle up your seatbelt, or it could really be dangerous."
Ji Weitian’s nerves jolted, and without a second thought, she did as told.
Overflowing with the will to survive.
Without starting the car yet, she gripped the seatbelt tightly with both hands, ready for anything.
Qin Nanyu glanced at her anxious expression and couldn’t help but curl the corner of his mouth.
He absolutely adored how she seemed so scared of dying, yet was willing to go to hell with him.
"Qin Nanyu, drive slower," Ji Weitian finally regained her voice, the first thing she said was a reminder to him.
A few seconds passed, and recovering from her surprise, she couldn’t resist her curiosity and began to look around the car.
It seemed like it was the first time she had seen Qin Nanyu drive such a beat-up car. It was a little small; she fit in fine, but Qin Nanyu seemed a bit cramped inside with his tall stature.
Almost giving the illusion that he couldn’t stretch his legs out straight.
But his expression lacked any signs of disdain. The focused look on his face while driving was actually kind of handsome.
The car quieted down.
After observing the car, Ji Weitian sneakily scrutinized the person in front of her.
Qin Nanyu didn’t speak as if he hadn’t noticed he was being watched, quietly driving.
When they reached an intersection with traffic lights, he stepped on the brakes.
Ji Weitian didn’t realize it, leaning forward a bit before steadying herself. The next second, she found him looking over at her, the corners of his mouth holding a teasing smile.
"Staring so intently, you like it?"
"..."
Ji Weitian really wanted to play dumb, but her cheeks were already uncontrollably blushing.
With a guilty conscience, she clarified, "I’ve just never seen such a beat-up car, so I took a second look. It’s not like I was looking at you."
"Did I say you were looking at me?" The smile on Qin Nanyu’s lips became more pronounced.
Ji Weitian then realized she had blurted out too much, as if saying ’there’s no silver here’.
She decided to close her mouth, refusing to speak.
But after driving a bit further, sensing the atmosphere in the car growing a bit stifling, she couldn’t help but speak again, "Weren’t you kicked out of your house? How come you still have a car?"
And such a wreck of a car at that.
If someone didn’t know better, they might think he picked it out of a junkyard.
"I had no car, and it’s inconvenient to go out, so I went to borrow one from He Feichen, but that guy has issues with his character, and we’re not very close, so he refused to lend me a good car and just gave me this junker," Qin Nanyu said, his tone becoming pitiful, painting a picture of a fallen tiger being bullied by dogs.
Seeing him like this, Ji Weitian didn’t feel right asking anything more.
Her mind went back to the scene she saw at the door of the private room, where she hadn’t yet asked how much of her conversation with Leng Jian he had heard.
Judging by his calm demeanor, he probably didn’t hear anything...
"Shhh—"
Suddenly, the car pulled over and stopped on the quiet lane near Jiangcheng University.
From this spot, only one street away from the laboratory building of Jiangcheng University, if she looked up, she could already see the solemn laboratory building.
Somewhat surprised, Ji Weitian turned to him, "Did the car break down, why did you stop suddenly?"
Qin Nanyu grasped the steering wheel with one hand and looked at her sideways, his eyes shining with a light she couldn’t understand. Their eyes met, and after a long moment, he quietly said, "Ji Weitian, do you like me?"
