The car ride was silent. Hence, when he spoke, Qiao Nian felt the need to reply to him.

However, she didn't know how to reply to him.

“No.”

If she wasn't angry, why would she avoid him?

Ye w.a.n.gchuan smiled as he leaned against the leather seat and stretched his entire body. Even though the car's internal s.p.a.ce was huge, his long and slender legs made it look cramped.

“Do you feel that I shouldn't have carried you out like that?”

His voice control was excellent. His voice was raspy and nonchalant, so he sounded quite s.e.xy.

It was piercing as well, which made it seem as though he was speaking right next to her ear.

It immediately felt weird in the car.

Qiao Nian could feel that she was getting shy again. She could feel her face getting flushed as she wasn't sure why he would suddenly mention it.

“I just felt that I could've walked myself. My arm is injured, not my legs.”

Ye w.a.n.gchuan blinked, dispersing the cold look in his eyes. He then said it in a way that couldn't be reb.u.t.ted, “But you're injured, after all.”

Gu San was worried for Qiao Nian as he drove.

Master w.a.n.g, you're being too unreasonable.

Qiao Nian pouted, causing her lips to look paler as she frowned. A hint of annoyance flashed in her eyes as she said, “My arm injury doesn't affect the way I walk. I was fully capable of walking on my own!”

Few people in the school had seen a man like Ye w.a.n.gchuan before. She antic.i.p.ated multiple rumors because of what he did when she went back to school.

She didn't care about how others viewed her or what they said behind her back. But she hated trouble, which was something he created!

He wasn't even from the Jiang family. He was just a friend of one of her cousins. However, now she felt that Ye w.a.n.gchuan was a part of her life.

It felt like… She couldn't put her finger on it. She just found that she would lose her cool and not know what to do when she encountered him.

Just as Qiao Nian was zoning out, she didn't realize that she was trapped in the car.

By the time she realized it, Ye w.a.n.gchuan was next to her. His slender limbs surrounded her. One of his hands was at the driver's seat for support and his limbs formed a barrier around her.

His top two b.u.t.tons were undone. You could see his neck when he sat properly.

But now, he was leaning over her, and Qiao Nian could see his overly-attractive collarbone!

She felt her breath quicken and her heart race. She could feel that she was getting flushed. Qiao Nian subconsciously leaned back and grabbed onto the seat, trying to get out of the situation.

Ye w.a.n.gchuan noticed that she was getting flushed and smiled. It was as though he was teasing her as he looked deeply at her and said, “Shouldn't you be addressing me as a brother? Huh?”

Qiao Nian could feel his breath on her face, causing her heart to flutter. It was as though she wasn't in control of her body.

Her whole face was flushed.

She couldn't tell what was wrong. It just was.

Ye w.a.n.gchuan's dark eyes could draw you in when you looked at them. He said, as though he was lying, “Address me as Brother Ye, and I will send you to the hospital out of my care for you as a senior. No need to be so nervous about it.”
