So, she maintained a steady speed of less than 30 miles per hour and moved slowly forward on the motor vehicle lane. Even the electric vehicles in the non-motor vehicle lane next to her were moving faster than her.
Su Zhengxing placed his right elbow on the junction of the car window glass and the car door, rubbed his temple, and hesitated for a while before saying, “How about you pull over and I call a designated driver?”
Lin Qiao knew that he was complaining about her slowness, so after a few ‘uh’ sounds, she said in a negotiating tone, “Then I…drive faster?”
She stepped on the accelerator and increased the speed to 35.
Su Zhengxing: “…”
Su Zhengxing’s home is in a villa area on the outskirts of the city. The area has a spacious layout and a beautiful environment. It is a gathering place for wealthy people in Beijing.
The 50-minute drive from the restaurant to his home took her nearly an hour and a half. When they arrived at the destination, Su Zhengxing, who had been drinking, almost fell asleep in the co-pilot seat.
They didn’t notice it when they were in the car before, but now that they got out, they realized that it was not only raining heavily outside, but also windy. The rumbling thunder was rumbling above their heads, and they didn’t feel like it was raining in autumn at all.
Lin Qiao parked the car and walked out of the garage with Su Zhengxing. As soon as they left the eaves and stepped into the rain, they were hit by raindrops sweeping in from all directions, and they felt chilled to the bone. Their hair was wet with rain and blown up by the wind, covering their faces.
At this time, the lights in the community were very dim in the heavy rain, and the surroundings were dark and empty.
Looking at such bad weather, Lin Qiao immediately pretended to be weak and said, “Mr. Su, the rain is too heavy. Can I go in first to take shelter from the rain?”
Su Zhengxing was waiting for her to show her true colors, so how could he refuse?
He glanced at her and said, “Come in.”
Lin Qiao wiped the rain and hair on her face and quickly followed.
Anyway, she was already working overtime tonight, and it would be a big loss if she didn’t take the opportunity to push the progress of the task.
Su Zhengxing’s house is a two-floor villa with simple black, white, gray, and blue colors, the same style as his office. Apart from the furniture, there are no ornaments or decorations.
The floor-to-ceiling window, which is as big as a wall, has not been closed yet. There is a small garden outside. The dense raindrops hit the glass, causing it to tremble slightly.
Su Zhengxing walked to the sofa in the living room and pressed the remote control, and then the curtains closed automatically.
Next to the living room is the dining room and kitchen. The kitchen is open, and the operating table is next to the dining table.
Su Zhengxing turned on the direct drinking machine and filled her with a cup of hot water.
“You sit on the sofa for a while. I’m going to take a bath.” Su Zhengxing handed her the water.
Take a bath?!
Lin Qiao’s hand trembled. She pretended to be calm and took a cup of water.
“Hey, you’re probably not the kind of person I thought you were, right?”
Lin Qiao used her consciousness to communicate with the person in her head.
Su Zhengxing: “…That’s enough. I don’t have the fetish you think.”
“You better be!” Lin Qiao pouted.
Su Zhengxing in front of her handed her the water and went upstairs to take a bath. Lin Qiao took a sip of hot water, leaned comfortably on the sofa, and glanced aimlessly at the furnishings in the living room.
There is a wall-mounted TV, a set of sofas, a TV cabinet, and a coffee table. The TV cabinet and the coffee table are empty. Apart from that, there is nothing else.
This is not a home. This is a model room, right?
Lin Qiao looked toward the kitchen again. The stove and the dining table also looked new, with no signs of use. It was obvious that cooking was not often done there.
But it was understandable. The CEOs in novels and TV dramas all look glamorous, but when it comes to life, nine out of ten of them cannot take care of themselves.
