My Dangerous Billionaire Husband - Chapter 325
Chapter 325: If You Do Not Want To Be More Awkward, Get On The Car
Jian Han was driving a red Audi. Its price was around 40 thousand dollars. It was a mid-range car, one that she could afford.
She drove out of the car park, and as she was about to cruise onto the main streets, a sound rang out, and the car broke down.
Would she be that unlucky?
Jian Han got out of the car, and she popped the hood to have a look. She did not know how to fix it.
She could not help but feel a little frustrated.
At this moment, she heard the sound of a car horn. Jian Han turned her gaze sideways to have a look. There was a silver Porsche driving over slowly.
This was this year’s model. Just the base price alone was above five million dollars. There were very few people in T City who could drive something like that; it wasn’t a car that just anyone would look good in. This kind of elegant and classy silver needed a person of a certain demeanour to pull it off well.
As Jian Han was slightly in a blur, the Porsche stopped by her side, and the windows of the car slowly slid down, revealing that handsome and refined face.
Zhou Dayuan.
There was another person seated on the front passenger seat, Li Beibei.
The feeling that she felt in the banquet hall has returned, but at this moment, it was even more awkward. Jian Han did not know what he meant by this.
He was driving a luxurious vehicle, his new girlfriend was in the passenger’s seat, and he saw his ex girlfriend’s car stall. He stopped his vehicle absurdly to witness her flustered state. Did he want to show off to her? Did he want to make her uncomfortable?
Zhou Dayuan, who was in the driver’s seat, had one hand on the steering wheel, and his dark eyes behind his gold rimmed glasses focused warmly on the woman who was standing outside his car. “Did your car break down? You cannot repair it at this time of day. Call a garage tomorrow morning. It is hard to flag a cab here. Come on, I will take you to your destination.”
Jian Han froze upon hearing his words and was very taken aback.
But thinking about his personality, she felt that it was reasonable for him to do so.
“That’s right, Miss Jian, come on. Let’s go together.” Li Beibei gave her direct and gracious smile.
Jian Han glanced at Li Beibei once. She had a beautiful appearance and an elegant aura, and it was clear that she was from a wealthy family. His taste was not bad.
Jian Han stood up straight, and there was a formal and distant smile on her lips as she said, “You don’t have to. We are not going in the same direction. You can go. Thank you, but I will just flag a cab myself. ”
As she spoke, Jian Han walked behind the Porsche as she stood by the roadside and stretched out her hand to flag a cab.
But Zhou Dayuan was right; this part of the road does not have space to stop a cab, and Jian Han looked on as many empty cabs flew pass her eyes.
Jian Han felt her face go red. She was not in a hurry, but in her peripheral vision, she saw that the Porsche did not leave. It was still parked there.
Jian Han: “…”
Li Beibei looked through the rearview mirror at Jian Han. “Miss Jian’s personality is quite stubborn. Isn’t it more convenient for us to take her back?”
The man beside her did not answer.
Li Beibei turned her head sideways to take a look.
The window of the car was open, and Zhou Dayuan had his left arm placed relaxedly on the car window. The sleeve of his clean white shirt underneath his black suit was wrapped around his white wrist. The collar of the shirt had a silver button, which was very eye catching, and his straight, handsome back leaned against the car seat. He was looking forward, and he looked through the rear view mirror outside the window.
Li Beibei knew that he was looking at Jian Han.
Even though this was the case, she still looked twice at the man who was totally uninterested in her. He was really handsome. Maybe it was because of the warm breeze in early spring that ruffled the soft hair in front of his forehead, or maybe it was because of that woman that the expression on his face was focused and warm. The lines on his side profile were highlighted under the neon lights of the city. He was just like the main male character in a comic book, handsome and gentlemanly.
Li Beibei’s heart started to accelerate, and this man was someone that she had fallen in love just by looking at him.
Zhou Dayuan looked at the woman who was flagging down cabs non stop. The corners of his lips curled into a mysterious arc. He laughed lightly and took out his phone.
Ding! Jian Han’s hand phone inside her bag rang, and she had received a text.
She opened her bag, and took her phone out, taking a look at the message.
[If you don’t want things to get even more awkward, then get in the car now.]
Jian Han did not need to think to know who sent this message. She lifted her hand to tug the strands of hair beside her cheeks behind her ears, and it was only then that she realized that her own ears were hot to the touch.
That man obviously knew that she felt awkward, but he parked his car and maintained his calm demeanour as he looked at her being awkward.
Sinister!
Jian Han out her phone away and took a deep breath of air before turning around, and she walked to the direction of the Porsche.
She opened the back door of the Porsche, and sat inside.
“Doctor Zhou, I will be troubling you then.”
Zhou Dayuan did not look at her. His passengers were both women, and he politely shut the window and opened a crack in the sunroof. With the fresh air streaming in from outside, he pressed on the accelerator, and he turned the steering wheel. The Porsche calmly cruised into the sea of traffic.
It was a little stuffy inside the quiet car cabin. Li Beibei asked, “Miss Jian, where are you living?”
Jian Han told her the name of her estate.
“Dayuan, Miss Jian is staying somewhere further off, you have to go another way. Take me home first, then take Miss Jian.”
Jian Han’s heart leaped, this meant that the both of them were going to be alone with one another?
She wanted to speak.
At this moment, Zhou Dayuan’s pure dark eyes scanned over from the rear view mirror.
“Sure, but I do not know if Miss Jian has an opinion about it. Maybe Miss Jian would suspect that I have ill intentions,” he said with a laugh.
Jian Han swallowed her words.
Li Beibei laughed as she said, “Dayuan, you really know how to joke.” As she spoke, she turned around to look at Jian Han. “Miss Jian, I heard that you and the oldest young master in the Tang Family have been dating for almost 6 years! When do the two of you plan to get married?”
Jian Han froze upon hearing this question. She lifted her gaze to look at the rear view mirror in front of her, and she coincidentally met the man’s gaze who was looking in her direction.
There was not much emotion in his dark eyes, and it was a simple stare.
Jian Han looked sideways outside the window. She laughed and said, “Marriage will be something that is left up to nature. We…are already considering it.”
Li Beibei had a bright and cheery character. Jian Han heard her talk a lot. She did not listen to it’s exact content, and she only lifted the corners of her lips as she replied casually.
Jian Han looked at her own reflection in the glass window of the car, as a doctor. She knew how to take care of herself, but this was still unable to stop the traces of time. She was already 30 years old this year.
If she did not marry after she was 30 years old, it would be considered to be marrying late, and in the future, if she got pregnant, it would be considered to be a high-risk pregnancy.
In the future, would she be all alone — lonely until her death?
The corners of her lips curled up in a self mocking smile.
At this moment, the sound of Li Beibei laughing came into her ears. She was chatting with Zhou Dayuan. The man was not too passionate, but both his actions and speech did not make others feel side-lined. He’s had such good mannerisms since his youth.
Li Beibei asked, “Dayuan, do you still plan to advance your career in England? This is too far away from home. Actually, the prospects in China now are pretty good too.”
The man was silent for a few seconds, and he said, “I don’t contact my family too frequently, so regarding things that would happen in the future, let’s talk about it another time.”
Jian Han looked at the neat hairstyle on the back of his head. Over these 6 years, have the relations between him and his family not improved?
In the past, when they were dating, because of her that he did not seem to go home anymore.
At that time, they were still studying in Oxford. He had not asked for allowance from home. His results were excellent, and when he was in the first year of university, he was interning under the professor personally. In the future, he went into the Royal Hospital of England. His pay was very high, but his expenses were pretty low. Other than food, clothes, accommodation and transportation, he would spend the rest of the money on her.
He had spent a lot of time in England. Actually, he was an extremely romantic person on the inside. Every time there was an anniversary or a holiday, he would buy a present for her. Their presents were different from other couples. She remembered that there was once that he got two tickets to a famous medical professor’s lecture from his friend, and they excitedly and happily went together to attend.
At that time, their idea of romance was very simple. They on the road to analysing medicine, and she always had him by her side.
The last time she saw him, she heard her teacher Bill talk about his status over these six years. He was already the head professor of clinical medicine. In this time, he has accelerated significantly in his career. Not only was he a double PhD holder, he was also the director of two research institutes.
Teacher Bill said that he had shares in many large hospitals, and he also had his own medical team to engage in the latest medical research. That man, Zhou Dayuan, represented a natural genius in the medical profession.
Actually, there was no difference between England and China in his own opinion. It would be the same for him to advance in his career.
Just like this car. He was never a man who loved luxury goods. He was driving a car worth 5 million, and that meant that his pay had to be at least 5 million or above.
Over these 6 years without her, he was living his life so well.
Jian Han broke out into a plain smile. Yes, as long as he was living well, she felt that it was worth it.
As she was pondering, her gaze crashed into the man’s in the rear view mirror; he was looking at her.
Jian Han froze with the corners of her lips in an arc and quickly channeled her gaze elsewhere.
At this moment, they had arrived at Li Beibei’s place, and she bid farewell to the both of them before she got out of the car.
The Porsche started to move again, and now, there were only 2 people in the car.
Jian Han tried hard to sit up straight, and even her breathing became shallow.
After driving for a while, Zhou Dayuan asked, “You are living with Uncle and Aunty right now?”
Jian Han’s two small hands kneaded into fists in front of her body momentarily, and she lowered her gaze and shook her head lightly. “No.”
Zhou Dayuan looked at her through the rear view mirror. He noticed that her two small hands were firmly tugging her own dress not knowing what to do, and he softened his tone as he asked, “What is wrong?”
She did not dare to interact alone with him. She was afraid of hearing his warm tone that he was using right now. The man had a good education, and even his ex-girlfriend that he had broken up with, he could treat her like a friend and care for her, but she was unable to do the same.
She could not control herself as her eyes became red. She looked outside the window and lifted her gaze. “My parents…have all left.”
Zhou Dayuan’s pure dark eyes contracted violently, and he was both taken aback. “What happened?”
“It was also nothing much. It was just… They were taking the high speed rail, and there was a part that went off the tracks, and it dropped from the cliff. My parents…”
Zhou Dayuan looked at the woman who was seated in the back. His voice got even more gentle as he said, “I am sorry.”
“It’s nothing.” Jian Han took a breath through her red nose as she said, “Nobody can avoid an accident. It was fate. I have already …accepted it.”
She accepted the fact that she turned into an orphan overnight.
The both of them did not speak again. After 10 minutes, the car stopped.
They had arrived at the estate that she was living in.
Jian Han stretched out her hand to open the car door. She curled up the corners of her lips as she smiled. “Doctor Zhou, I have to thank you for today. Goodbye.”
Zhou Dayuan looked over from the rear view mirror. Her face did not have any trace of weakness anymore. He nodded his head slightly as he did not lose his politeness as he said, “Goodbye.”
Jian Han took her bag as she left the car.
Both her feet landed on the ground, and before she could stand up, she was embarrassed. She wore a pair of high heeled shoes to attend the banquet,. She was very unlucky; the heel of her high heeled shoes was stuck into the gap of the drain cover.
She tried to forcefully pull it out, but it was of no use.
