Chapter 284 Can I Still Take You Home Today?
"Let me take you home."
Li Yang stared intently at the road conditions ahead and spoke calmly.
Jiang Ning reached out and punched Li Yang, complaining in a coquettish tone:
"Nonsense! If you don't send me home, are you planning to leave me alone in this deserted wilderness and let me walk back on my own?"
Li Yang immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly explained to Jiang Ning with a smile:
"Oh, yes, yes, yes, it was my fault for not considering this. You are a magnanimous person, so don't hold it against me."
Li Yang drove his supercar, speeding along the road like lightning.
Its speed was dozens of times faster than that of an ordinary car. The huge roar produced by the violent friction between the engine and the ground was as deafening as thunder, and even Jiang Ning, who was sitting in the car, couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
"What's wrong? Are you scared?" Li Yang noticed that Jiang Ning was acting strangely and asked with concern.
"Well... a little. How can I normally have the opportunity to ride such a fast car? The driver of our company drives very slowly, even slower than an electric car!"
Jiang Ning nodded frankly, with a hint of nervousness and uneasiness in his voice.
She answered in a nonchalant manner, but she was extremely scared in her heart.
"Oh, then I'll try to drive faster so you won't be scared for a while."
As he spoke, Li Yang stepped on the accelerator and drove many times faster than usual on this road. It took him only 15 minutes to reach Jiang Ning's house.
"We're home, please get off the car." Li Yang said.
His car was driving very fast and Jiang Ning felt dizzy and his stomach was churning, and he was about to vomit.
"Bye, thank you. I will never ride in your car again."
Jiang Ning got out of the car and left without looking back.
Li Yang looked at Jiang Ning's leaving back, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
Of course he knew she was carsick, and he just wanted to tease her. However, seeing her in such pain, he still felt sorry for her.
He took out his cell phone and made a call.
"Uncle Li, send a more comfortable car to wait for Jiang Ning downstairs of her house tomorrow morning." Li Yang ordered.
After hanging up the phone, Li Yang shook his head and said to himself, "This stupid woman is really worrying."
At this moment, Jiang Ning was lying on his bed, recalling what had just happened.
She suddenly felt that she seemed to be becoming more and more dependent on Li Yang, and this feeling made her feel a little uneasy.
After all, they are just partners and must not cross this red line.
Moreover, she didn't know what kind of feelings Li Yang had for her, not to mention that Gu Yuan was still around, so this kind of feeling was even more immoral.
"Oh, I don't want to think about it anymore, let's go to sleep!"
Jiang Ning patted her head and forced herself to stop thinking, but insomnia came back on time, forcing her to face the problem. She tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.
She couldn't help but pick up her phone and sent a message to Li Yang: "Thank you for sending me home today."
Soon, Li Yang replied: "You're welcome, go to bed early."
Just a few simple words made Jiang Ning feel warm inside.
She put down her phone, closed her eyes, and tried to fall asleep. However, Li Yang kept appearing in her mind.
"Really? I can't sleep again!"
Jiang Ning struggled back and forth, and before he knew it, it was almost dawn.
After she got up from the bed, she saw through the window a very luxurious car parked at the door. Jiang Ning knew without even thinking that this must be the work of Li Yang.
I called the driver of my company and said,
"You don't need to pick me up today. I'll take someone else's car."
Thinking of what Li Yang said last night, my heart was moved and I got in the car he sent to the shooting location.
Jiang Ning and Li Yang met again, and their tacit understanding was much better than the first time they met. The two cooperated to complete the shooting task, and their eye contact with each other increased unconsciously.
After the shooting, the two chatted happily and Jiang Ning was eating a strawberry sundae in his hand.
Li Yang still maintained his usual temperament and teased her, "Is it delicious?"
Jiang Ning swallowed the mouthful before speaking, "It's delicious. If you want to eat, come and have some. There's plenty here. Don't just stand there and watch."
"Oh, I see."
Li Yang answered hesitantly, and Jiang Ning could see the hidden meaning in his words.
"Do you have anything to say?" Jiang Ning asked, looking straight into Li Yang's eyes.
After a long while, he finally spoke:
"Can I still take you home today..."
