My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Chapter 782: Chapter 782: Take Her to a Place Again

“You didn’t realize?” Li Shengxiao’s eagle-like eyes slightly narrowed as he looked at the puzzled little woman, feeling an inexplicable sense of defeat welling up in his chest.

Damn it, she didn’t see it?

Rong Yan blinked, shaking her head innocently, “No.”

“Not at all!”

“…” The words ‘not at all’ made the veins at the temple of the distinguished man throb, and the limited-edition luxury car almost crashed into the roadside green belt. Fortunately, at the last moment, he swung the steering wheel in his hand and the car screeched to an emergency stop, narrowly avoiding a car accident.

Seated in the passenger seat, Rong Yan witnessed the scary scene and almost gasped in shock.

...

When she turned her head back around, she pursed her lips and, very tactfully, changed her tune, “Actually… I can make it so I do see it.”

As long as he didn’t drive so scarily, everything was negotiable!

Li Shengxiao’s handsome face turned somber with her half-hearted ‘Actually I can make it so I do see it,’ and the joints on his hand gripping the wheel became distinct, “No need! I’ll take you to a different place.”

“Another place?” Rong Yan nearly wailed.

Heaven knows how tired she was at that moment; she didn’t want to go anywhere but back to Dihor Garden, to sprawl on the soft, big bed, not even wanting to take a bath.

She held back for a moment, her bright eyes looking plaintive, “Can I go tomorrow instead?”

“No.” It was simple and direct.

Rong Yan, “…”

She really wanted to go back.

The man’s rigid profile gradually softened under the flickering streetlights, looking astonishingly handsome, “We’ll be there soon. If you’re tired, lean back and take a nap. I’ll wake you when we arrive.”

“…All right.” Rong Yan was not pretentious. She adjusted the seat back and said to the man driving next to her, “I’m really going to sleep, and if I fall asleep, remember to wake me up when we get there.”

“Sleep.”

Rong Yan immediately closed her eyes and relaxed.

She had thought it would be difficult to fall asleep in the car, but she had vastly overestimated her endurance. Within minutes, her brain grew fuzzy and gradually, she drifted into dreamland…

At the traffic light, Li Shengxiao stopped the car and heard the even breathing beside him. Turning his head, he saw the girl’s red lips and white teeth, and her eyebrows looking as though they were painted on. Her delicate skin was soft and tender, resembling the flawlessness of exquisite jade. She was sleeping soundly, her fan-like dense and slightly curled eyelashes adding an inexplicable sense of youthful allure against her pure innocence…

Because she wasn’t wearing makeup, her bare face looked pure, showing no sign of her actual age, resembling a college student who had just been accepted into university. Her V-neck thin sweater clung to her, revealing a section of her attractive collarbone, and down her slender neck, it led to boundless imaginings.

Li Shengxiao’s gaze wandered, his throat unintentionally tightening. He took off his jacket and gently covered the sleeping young woman.

The traffic light at the intersection had already turned green.

The black Lincoln was at the front of the line, unmoving. The cars behind couldn’t pass. They could only frantically honk their horns urging the car to move, yet no one dared to hit the expensive-looking luxury car.

Not until the green light was about to end did the drivers roll down their windows, stick out their heads, and ready themselves to curse out loud. The black Lincoln that had been stationary suddenly took off, speeding across the intersection just as the traffic light changed.@@novelbin@@

As the car passed by, the green light turned back to red. The drivers stuck behind watched the dust-settling car drive away, letting out a loud exclamation, “Damn!”
