Addicted to My Cutie and Sweetie

Chapter 790: I Will Definitely Make Good Use of This Business Card!

Zhang Lingying had just taken a step when Leng Jian grabbed her wrist.

She paused, turning back to look at the person behind her, "What’s wrong?"

"I should be asking you that. Since a while ago, you’ve been distracted. What are you thinking about?" Leng Jian’s thin lips parted slightly, his tone calm, just like his usual concern.

But in his usually unruffled eyes, there sparked a hint of probing light.

"...I was checking if Lu Jing followed us. I was worried if you two met, you might fight again." Zhang Lingying admitted frankly, pursing her lips.

Hearing this, Leng Jian was taken aback.

"Don’t worry. I won’t fight him anymore." He chuckled softly, reaching out to tousle her hair, comforting her like a frightened child.

Zhang Lingying took his word for it without a doubt and turned, pulling him to get some medicine.

On their way back to the lab, Zhang Lingying didn’t bring up Lu Jing again. Instead, she chattered like a little bird, bombarding Leng Jian with all sorts of questions.

Zhang Lingying: "You look genteel, so why are you so good at fighting?"

Leng Jian: "I trained in self-defense for a while."

Zhang Lingying: "I’ve also trained in self-defense, but I feel like what we learned isn’t quite the same... Yours seems a bit more powerful."

Leng Jian raised an eyebrow: "Want to learn from me?"

Zhang Lingying nodded vigorously: "Yes!"

Leng Jian didn’t agree immediately but asked instead, "Why?"

Without a second thought, Zhang Lingying blurted out: "When I’ve learned it, if Lu Jing tries any funny business with me, I’ll beat him to death!"

Leng Jian: "..."

What he trained in wasn’t simply self-defense. If she truly mastered it, she would have no problem handling ordinary people, but dealing with Lu Jing...

Leng Jian’s gaze subtly hardened as he lightly said, "I didn’t beat Lu Jing today."

That fact shocked him as well.

He had thought he’d hidden his skills deeply, known to only a handful.

But today’s encounter with Lu Jing showed him that Lu Jing was also a master of concealing his abilities.

Such sharp skills didn’t seem typical of an aristocratic young master.

Dealing with Lu Jing won’t be easy for Zhang Lingying.

"Why are you suddenly staring at me like that?" Zhang Lingying noticed Leng Jian staring and scratched her head feeling a bit uneasy.

Leng Jian snapped back to reality and didn’t say anything, simply pulling out a business card from his pocket and handing it to her while speaking, "The second number is my personal number. Unless it’s something urgent, it’s on 24/7. You can call me if you run into any difficult situations."

"Oh." Zhang Lingying took the business card somewhat belatedly and only realized there were indeed two different numbers on it. She looked up suddenly at Leng Jian.

"What counts as a difficult situation?"

"..."

"Would asking you out for dinner or a movie count?"

"..."

"Being too bored during a holiday and wanting someone to hang out with should qualify, right?"

"..."

"Also, if I can’t sleep in the middle of the night, can I call this number?"

"..."

Leng Jian suddenly wanted to take his business card back.

Afraid that he would change his mind, Zhang Lingying swiftly stuffed the business card into her bag without a second word.

Right in front of him, she put it into a hidden pocket of her carry-on bag, the kind that’s not easy to fish out from.

Patting her chest, she assured Leng Jian, "Don’t worry, I will definitely make good use of this business card!"
