- Chapter 14 - Pick you up for dinner
The sole of her shoe ground against the hard wrist bone, and You Aofeng’s fingers couldn’t help but curl up in pain.
He yelled, “You Ting! Are you crazy! Let go of me right now!”
The assistant beside him quickly and anxiously tried to dissuade her, “Miss, Young Master’s body hasn’t fully recovered yet…”
You Ting paid no attention.
She looked expressionlessly at You Aofeng’s distorted face, and after a while, she slowly lifted her toe.
The assistant immediately helped You Aofeng back up and tried to push him to leave, but You Ting blocked their way again.
“You!” You Aofeng looked up and shouted furiously, “You’re going too far, what exactly do you want to do!”
You Ting glanced sideways at Bai Nianzhao next to her and signaled, “Apologize to her.”
You Aofeng opened his mouth to refuse, but the assistant stopped him.
“Young Master,” the assistant whispered in his ear, “It’s better to avoid trouble; everyone on the street is watching…”
The commotion they caused was not small, attracting quite a few onlookers to the previously quiet street.
Furthermore, the few of them had recently gained considerable notoriety in the capital, and many people were secretly taking photos and videos with their phones.
You Aofeng felt a suffocating surge of anger, but he could only suppress it.
He glared fiercely at Bai Nianzhao, and finally, through gritted teeth, spat out a few words: “I, am, sor, ry!”
First, he was mocked and ridiculed by the rich second-generation and Bai Zhenzhen, and now he was forcibly pressured to apologize to a woman.
You Aofeng’s chest was filled with rage, and before leaving, he gave You Ting one last cold look: “You Ting, you just wait.”
He vowed to make You Ting, this crazy woman, taste all the suffering he had endured, compounded tenfold!
You Ting couldn’t spare even a minimal glance for him. Instead, she spoke to Bai Nianzhao beside her: “Let me see your hand, take it out.”
Bai Nianzhao instinctively hid her hand behind her back, but under You Ting’s cool gaze, she timidly extended it.
Her skin was very fair, which made the red marks on her wrist all the more noticeable.
The man had used great force, and the slender wrist was swollen and red almost all the way around, with faint blue-purple finger marks visible on the skin’s surface.
You Ting’s brow furrowed instantly, and she secretly thought that the stomp she’d given You Aofeng just now was far too light.
Seeing her frown, Bai Nianzhao shrank her shoulders, attempting to pull her hand back.
But at the last moment, the woman grasped her fingertips.
The unfamiliar warmth of the touching fingertips caused Bai Nianzhao to pause, unable to withdraw in time.
You Ting looked indifferent, but her palm was warm. Her long, slender fingers followed the line of the finger bones, gently bending to hold Bai Nianzhao’s hand.
“Come with me,” You Ting said.
The still somewhat confused little rabbit could only follow.
Her gaze involuntarily fell to their clasped hands.
The force the other person used was very light, perhaps afraid of hurting her injured wrist.
This gentle and soft clasp created an illusion of being infinitely precious.
The fish in the water willingly bit the tempting bait, and Bai Nianzhao cautiously tightened her fingers slightly.
As if by doing so, she could hold onto this gentle illusion forever.
You Ting took Bai Nianzhao to the car.
This time, she still hadn’t brought a driver; she was driving herself, so Bai Nianzhao naturally sat in the passenger seat.
She struggled to reach for the seatbelt with her uninjured hand. Perhaps because she was unfamiliar with the car, her movements were clumsy.
Sensing that it was taking a little too long, her hands didn’t stop moving, but her face was already burning with embarrassment.
A soft sigh reached her ears, a helpless sound, as if she couldn’t be helped.
You Ting said, “I’ll do it.”
She leaned over, her slender fingers reaching out, passing over Bai Nianzhao’s head, and pulling down the seatbelt.
Bai Nianzhao sat in the seat, her body rigid, not daring to move.
Her vision was suddenly largely obscured by the person in front of her, and if she merely lifted her eyes, she could clearly see the woman’s delicately curved collarbone.
You Ting was wearing a white mermaid dress today, with a cutout design on the shoulder, revealing glimpses of her fair skin.
She turned her head, yet her peripheral vision still accurately captured the woman’s bright red lips.
A bright and passionate color, like a flash of fire, vividly burned in her world.
The car’s interior was not very spacious to begin with, and the suddenly restricted space added a layer of subtle intimacy.
Even though there was a distance between them, Bai Nianzhao felt she could sense You Ting’s body heat.
Slowly, with every exhale and inhale of breath, it melted into her skin.
At this moment, Bai Nianzhao felt like Pandora holding the magic box.
She didn’t understand why she was so nervous, her heart pounding as if it would burst out.
But her subconscious seemed to have already sensed something amiss, so she delayed opening the box to explore.
With a “click,” as the seatbelt buckle fastened, Bai Nianzhao quietly relaxed, feeling a sense of relief.
You Ting looked down at her and asked in surprise, “Is it very hot? Your face is so red.”
Bai Nianzhao stammered in reply, “Y-yes, it’s quite hot.”
You Ting sat back properly, started the car, and casually turned on the air conditioning.
The sedan drove smoothly on the clean and spacious asphalt road, and Bai Nianzhao’s heart slowly calmed down with the stable speed.
Suddenly, she heard You Ting’s voice again: “How did you run into You Aofeng?”
When the recent incident was brought up, Bai Nianzhao felt a little wronged.
She had only wanted to help someone, but You Aofeng had scolded her without distinction of right or wrong.
After hearing her story, You Ting estimated that Bai Zhenzhen must have done something to provoke the young master You.
No wonder it was a ‘Cruel Romance’ novel; it was always the supporting female character causing trouble and the female lead taking the blame.
You Ting spoke again: “You Aofeng isn’t clear-headed; keep your distance from him in the future.”
Bai Nianzhao replied with an “Oh.”
She quietly glanced at You Ting driving, and with a feeling she couldn’t quite articulate, she said softly, “But… aren’t Young Master You and I already engaged?”
The silver ring on her finger gleamed faintly.
This ring, which Bai Nianzhao had considered a guarantee, had unknowingly become so heavy.
The car speed remained unchanged, still driving steadily.
You Ting chuckled softly, an emotion that was hard to distinguish.
“Do you want to marry You Aofeng?” she asked.
Bai Nianzhao’s heart was uncertain; she bit her lip and shook her head fiercely, guided by instinct.
You Ting curled her lips, “Not much courage, but at least your taste is acceptable.”
“You Aofeng didn’t even attend the engagement ceremony back then, so how can it count.”
“I was the one who brought you back to the You family,” she said carelessly, “If it counts, it should be my engagement ceremony with you.”
She was utterly unaware that Bai Nianzhao’s heart was suddenly stirred into a chaotic wave.
She asked softly, “Then, what is my status for staying in the You family?”
“Hmm,” You Ting didn’t care, “In any case, it won’t be related to You Aofeng.”
It was strange.
The engagement was clearly a matter of public record and wouldn’t be as easily dismissed as You Ting had just said, yet because You Ting said it, a weight was lifted from Bai Nianzhao’s heart, and she felt completely relaxed.
She always trusted You Ting’s every word unconditionally.
A small smile lifted the corners of Bai Nianzhao’s lips, “Sister, how did you happen to come here?”
You Ting replied, “To pick you up for dinner.”
Just then, a red light appeared ahead. While waiting, she turned her face and slightly raised an eyebrow at Bai Nianzhao:
“Otherwise, what did you think I was taking you to do right now, little one?”
