Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 587 - 580: Did Nothing at All
Leng Yichen walked quickly, and Bai Yiran had to struggle to keep up with his pace. Outside the restaurant, Wang Hai had already parked the car at the entrance.
Seeing Leng Yichen angrily dragging Bai Yiran out, Wang Hai was just about to open the door, but Leng Yichen had already opened the car door first, tossing Bai Yiran into the car like cargo. After throwing her coat and bag inside as well, he followed her into the car.
With anger radiating from him, Leng Yichen exerted a lot of force as he got into the car. Bai Yiran clearly felt the force of his entry as her body bounced on the seat.
Wang Hai knew Leng Yichen was angry, and the atmosphere in the car was off. Not daring to ask too many questions, he tried to minimize his presence in the vehicle.
Leng Yichen pursed his lips tightly, placing his clenched fist on his knee, "Wang Hai, do you have any cigarettes?"
"Yes."
"Give me one."
Wang Hai quickly pulled out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to Leng Yichen, who took it. His slender fingers drew one cigarette from the pack, holding it in his mouth and bringing a lighter close to himself to light it.
Leng Yichen flicked the lighter multiple times, but the cigarette wouldn’t light, making him slightly anxious. Finally, on the last attempt, he lit the cigarette, tossing the lighter to Wang Hai in the front seat and opening a small window slit.
Having quit smoking for so long, the sudden smoking made Leng Yichen’s throat uncomfortable, and he coughed lightly several times before he felt slightly better.
"Why are you smoking again?" Bai Yiran asked upon seeing Leng Yichen smoking.
This man knew she disliked the smell of smoke, and even before he quit smoking, he wouldn’t smoke in front of her.
Leng Yichen ignored Bai Yiran, smoking on his own. Soon, Bai Yiran caught the scent of smoke.
She opened the window on her side, "Can you stop smoking?"
Bai Yiran didn’t want to inhale secondhand smoke, nor did she want to return home smelling of smoke.
"Bai Yiran, you’d better shut up now!" Leng Yichen was genuinely angry. This was the first time he had been angered by Bai Yiran in such a way.
With two fingers pinching the cigarette, Leng Yichen crossed his long legs, his narrow eyes staring out the window. Once he finished the cigarette, he extinguished the butt and tossed it into the car ashtray.
Bai Yiran lowered her head without saying a word. She knew why Leng Yichen was angry and could fully understand how he felt when he found out she dined in the same area as Wu Chengzu.
She thought, perhaps Leng Yichen was more concerned about her safety than anything else...
Suddenly, Bai Yiran felt a tightness in her arm, as Leng Yichen’s body pressed against her, pinning her between him and the seatback.
With eyes fixed on Bai Yiran, he asked, "Why did Wu from your company join the team-building event?"
"He happened to be there."
"Really?" Leng Yichen’s breath quickened, "Such a coincidence?"
Of course, it wasn’t such a coincidence! Those following Bai Yiran said Wu Chengzu’s car had been tailing Yao Zhiqing and a few others, seemingly unintentionally but consistently going in the same direction.
This made Leng Yichen suspicious.
If Wu Chengzu had truly only come to the restaurant to meet friends, Leng Yichen wouldn’t have pursued the matter.
"Yes, it was just that coincidental," Bai Yiran replied, composed, "Otherwise, what else could it be?"
Bai Yiran looked at Leng Yichen, wishing he could tell her everything, so they could face it together.
However, she understood Leng Yichen too well. He wouldn’t say anything to avoid involving her.
This made Bai Yiran even more sympathetic towards him, and at that moment, she really wanted to tell Leng Yichen that she knew everything. She knew how dangerous Wu Chengzu was, and what she was doing.
But she feared if she did, Leng Yichen might not let her continue.
"Bai Yiran, do you realize what you’ve done?" Leng Yichen pursed his lips.
Bai Yiran held his face, and Little Mouth kissed harshly on Leng Yichen’s tightly pressed lips, "I didn’t drink, didn’t smile at male colleagues, and answered your calls, so I didn’t do anything~"
