Chapter 395: Chapter 239: New Opportunities
"Huh?" Zhang Yang, who was in the midst of devouring a jianbing, was taken aback, feeling a bit surprised.
"Huh your ass! You can’t drive after drinking, how are you going to get back?" All the courage Xiao Wei had mustered up was easily brushed off by Zhang Yang, who either didn’t really hear or was pretending to be dumb.
In this situation, it was clearly inappropriate to repeat herself, so Xiao Wei angrily shifted the topic.
"That’s easy! You can drop me off at the store first, then drive my car back! Tomorrow, I’ll go to the company and drive it back!" Zhang Yang said ’cleverly’.
"Oh." Xiao Wei replied in a low tone and didn’t say anything further.
This blockhead would drive her mad. Even a girl like her can be this proactive, and yet he just doesn’t get it!
Feeling a bit emotional, Xiao Wei vented all her anger on the van, revving the engine loudly as she drove ferociously, weaving through the night streets regardless of whatever car blocked her path, showcasing the prowess of a Wuling Car God.
Originally, it took at least twenty-five minutes to get from downtown to Zhang Yang’s store, but under Xiao Wei’s aggressive driving, they arrived at the destination in just 17 minutes.
"We’re here!"
Xiao Wei braked sharply, parked the car right at the store entrance, and showed no intention of getting out to stretch, treating Zhang Yang completely like a passenger.
The feeling was that, as soon as Zhang Yang stepped out, Xiao Wei would slam the door shut, step on the gas, and leave without a second thought.
Zhang Yang didn’t hurry to get out but unscrewed a bottle of mineral water, took a few big gulps, and then swished it around his mouth for no apparent reason, spitting it out the window.
"What are you doing? We’re already downstairs!" Xiao Wei frowned and glanced at him, not knowing what kind of plan Zhang Yang was on about.
"Uh, aren’t you gonna get out and see me off? I’ve had so much to drink, my head’s still fuzzy!" Zhang Yang said lazily, acting roguish.
Xiao Wei glanced sideways at him: "Missy’s in a bad mood and doesn’t want to entertain you! Get out of the car, go upstairs, and rest; we’ll talk about whatever it is tomorrow!"
"Uh, come on, don’t be mad, I was just teasing you!" Seeing Xiao Wei was genuinely upset, Zhang Yang quickly admitted his mistake.
"Oh, Zhang Yang, you’re deliberately messing with me, aren’t you?" Hearing this, Xiao Wei’s anger didn’t subside but instead was instantly provoked!
The next moment, just as Xiao Wei was about to argue, everything went dark as Zhang Yang recklessly leaned over and pressed against her, pulling her into a fierce kiss.
In an instant, Lin Nianwei felt her mind buzz and go completely blank, all her anger vanishing without a trace.
Zhang Yang’s kissing skill was clumsy but assertive. Who knows how long this kiss lasted; it was only when Lin Nianwei felt like she was about to pass out from lack of oxygen that Zhang Yang let go.
Within the closed van, neither of them spoke, both panting heavily.
"You..." Lin Nianwei couldn’t hold it in and started to speak but only managed to say "you" before not knowing what else to say.
"Give me some time, okay?" Zhang Yang responded without context.
Though the words had no context, Lin Nianwei understood them.
"Why? I don’t understand. I’m a girl who’s been so proactive, and you’re running away! Do you... have some unspeakable issue?" Lin Nianwei asked in confusion.
Hearing the words "unspeakable issue," Zhang Yang instantly felt uncomfortable all over.
Just about any normal man, upon hearing such words, would instantly feel like going Super Saiyan, and Zhang Yang was no exception.
For a moment, Zhang Yang even had the impulsive desire to settle this spoiled girl on the spot.
But having lived two lives, Zhang Yang forcibly subdued this impulse.
He fumbled out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and took a deep drag.
"In the understanding of many people, dating and being in a relationship means communicating from mind to body without any barriers, but I don’t see it that way!
If I can’t be sure of putting a wedding dress on you, I definitely won’t take your clothes off!
Give me some time, okay?"
"You..."
Hearing Zhang Yang’s somewhat cheesy words, instead of being moved, Xiao Wei felt a bit angry.
She had given up a good job her family arranged for her after graduation to work in the small place of W City, all to avoid missing out on Zhang Yang.
In Xiao Wei’s mind, Zhang Yang was her ideal partner, and she hadn’t considered anyone else since they became a couple.
But hearing Zhang Yang’s implication of having doubts about their relationship and future was simply an insult to their relationship.
"You’ve done well, whether it’s at work or in life, you’re a qualified girlfriend!
It’s me, I have issues. I have an indescribable fear I can’t overcome right now!
It’s not physiological, it’s psychological, do you understand?
If you trust me, give me some time, okay? I promise I won’t disappoint you!" Zhang Yang, seeing she was on the verge of getting really upset, once again explained.
In those moments of midnight reflection, when all is quiet, Zhang Yang had pondered what exactly he was afraid of, ignoring the stunning beauty beside him for whatever reason. It seemed like he’d banged his head on a door!
He thought about it for a long time but couldn’t figure it out until just now, during their deep kiss, it clicked for Zhang Yang.
All his subconscious avoidance stemmed from fear! Fear of the future!
Zhang Yang was unsure what would happen as the timeline reached a normal 2021, whether he’d continue living normally or if other changes would occur.
