Ye Ning hadn’t seen his expression, and the moment she heard that Lin Yebai’s phone call was answered by this man, she’d already felt uneasy. It wasn’t for any particular reason other than not knowing how to explain it to him once she got back.
"Lin Brother, he wouldn’t get angry, would he?"
She gripped her own mobile phone, intending to send him a message explaining the situation, but after much thought, she realized that her explanation might only lead to more misunderstandings. So it seemed better not to explain at all.
As Ye Ning thought this over, she ultimately decided to let it be. Just then, they reached the market, and she asked the man to stop the car and got out to buy breakfast.
"Are you really not going to eat?" she asked again with a hint of hopelessness when she got out of the car.
But the man in the car, after seeing the messy and crowded environment around, was already in a bad mood, "If you’re going to buy, do it quickly. I don’t have time to dawdle with you here!"
Ye Ning heard him and didn’t bother with a response, heading straight to buy breakfast.
If he didn’t want to eat, that was his problem. In any case, it wasn’t she who was hungry. A person like him deserved to starve or fall sick!
"Boss, how much are these pancakes?"
"Two yuan each, and there’s soy milk as well, one and a half yuan per cup."
Things in small cities were cheap yet authentic. Ye Ning, enticed by the inviting aroma, promptly bought her breakfast and was ready to leave when she saw, out of the corner of her eye, an auntie selling fresh milk. After a moment’s hesitation, she decided to buy a bottle before heading back.
Upon returning to the car, the man inside seemed to have grown impatient. Seeing her carrying bags of food, he spoke with a stern face, "Don’t make a mess in my car."
Ye Ning placed the soy milk and the cow’s milk on the armrest between the seats, unabashedly defying him, "Or what? You want to wait here until I’ve finished eating before getting back in?"
After a moment, he slammed the accelerator, and the car shot off at a speed of 100 miles per hour...
Since when had this woman dared to speak to him ? Had she forgotten who she was?
Driving on the freeway, both occupants settled into silence, and upon noticing the speed had stabilized, Ye Ning opened the pancake she’d bought and started to eat in the car.
And it was really delicious. The tantalizing aroma seemed to seduce the taste buds and soon filled the entire car with its scent. Especially considering the Bentley’s exceptional sealing, the fragrance didn’t dissipate but instead lingered and wafted throughout the cab...
The aroma drifted to a point that even the man who was driving couldn’t help but glance at the cursed woman behind him several times through the rearview mirror!
Ye Ning didn’t look up. She kept eating and browsing web pages on her phone.
After all, she wasn’t driving or busy with anything else. Enjoying her breakfast while surfing the web was a perfect moment for her.
Before she was halfway through her breakfast, the man in front suddenly snapped, "Throw it out!"
Ye Ning looked up, clearly not catching on immediately, "Throw it out? What do you mean, ’throw it out’?"
Ou Mucen’s face was dark as thunder, "The thing in your hand. Otherwise, get out of my car!"
Ye Ning looked at the pancake in her hand, wanting to say something, but then she caught sight of his gloomy face in the rearview mirror and understood.
"I haven’t finished eating yet. Why do you want me to throw it away? Ou Mucen, let me tell you, skipping breakfast is bad for your stomach. Especially for someone like you who just had a fever last night, it’s even worse. Here, have some — I bought soy milk and cow’s milk. Which one do you want?"
