Chapter 2: Glib-tongued

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The weather in July was scorching hot.

Nianyang ran to the road in one breath, but all she saw was the bus emitting exhaust fumes.

That was the only transportation to town in the afternoon. She was still a step too late!

Nianyang’s face turned pale. She estimated that it would take at least half an hour to reach the school from here. She could not make it in time!

What should she do? Was she going to repeat the mistake of the original owner in her previous life?

Beep beep…

A car horn sounded behind her.

Nianyang turned around in surprise and saw a small car speeding over!

This was really timely. Nianyang went up to the car that was driving straight at her without hesitation.

“Screech—”

The driver was obviously shocked. He stepped on the brakes reflexively. The moment the car stopped, Nianyang quickly pulled open the back door and jumped in.

“Who let you in?” As soon as Nianyang sat in, she felt that something was wrong. Before she could sense anything, a cold and magnetic voice entered her ears.

Nianyang shuddered and felt the temperature on her body drop.

In front of her was a handsome man. His short hair was combed neatly, his forehead was full, his eyebrows were sharp, and his black eyes were cold. Under his high nose bridge, his pursed thin lips revealed his displeasure.

The man was dressed in iron-gray outerwear. His face was cold and he had an imposing aura. His entire body exuded a fierce aura that was filled with alienation and coldness.

There was a faint sea breeze on him that smelled especially comfortable. There was also the symbol of a blue sail on his chest. Obviously, the man was in the business of sea merchants.

The sea merchants of the 1990s would become rich in the future.

This was a big shot!

[What are you waiting for? Hurry up and pounce on him. Possess him.] A soft and cute voice suddenly sounded in her mind, scaring Nianyang so much that she almost screamed.

Who, who was speaking?

“How long do you want to sit on my lap?” Li Tingyan spoke again. His voice was deep, mellow, and pleasant, with a hint of hoarseness.

While Nianyang was sizing him up, he also looked at her from head to toe.

The girl was wearing a washed-out school uniform. She did not look good, but her foundation was excellent. Her facial features were exquisite and beautiful, but she was sallow and thin. Her figure was also dry and light like a cat.

Only then did Nianyang realize that she was sitting on the man’s lap. No wonder it felt strange.

“I’m sorry.” She was really embarrassed. Why was she sitting on someone’s lap? In this era where one had to be responsible until the end for holding hands, would the other party think that she was a female hooligan?

Nianyang got off his lap in a hurry and ignored the childish voice that had just appeared.

Li Tingyan’s well-defined bronze hand meticulously smoothed the creases in his pants and his thin lips touched. “Get out!”

He had never liked to get close to others. If he did not have the habit of not hitting women, he would have kicked Nianyang out long ago!

Nianyang’s face stiffened. This person was really fierce. What a waste of his good face. If not for the circumstances, she would definitely roll her eyes at him!

“Uh, this handsome…” She suddenly realized that the term handsome was not popular in this era. What should a man be called?

Nianyang thought for a while and leaned forward slightly with her hands on both sides of Li Tingyan’s thighs. She leaned close to his ear and said, “Hello, Sir. I’m a student from the town’s middle school. I’m going to participate in a very important exam now. I’m already late. Can you do a good deed and send me there?”

Her voice was as soft as a cat’s meow. When she spoke, the heat from her mouth entered his ears. Li Tingyan’s heart skipped a beat.

He looked down at her. Her dark cheek was flushed red. It was obvious that she had been slapped. Li Tingyan’s heart tightened and his lowered palm moved. He actually wanted to reach out to touch her face.

The sudden thought shocked him. He immediately clenched his fists. He had always been cold and distant. She was just a girl he had just met, but he could not help but feel sorry for her.

This feeling was too strange. When he trained his crew to work overseas, he tortured them until they were on their last breath and he did not even blink!

Li Tingyan didn’t say anything. Wang Donglai, who was in charge of driving, turned around and said, “Hello, little girl. This is an official car, not a taxi. Besides, we have an urgent matter. You should find someone else to send you!”

“What about an official car? Isn’t it more appropriate to be impartial? Besides, you guys look like righteous heroes. It shouldn’t be a problem for you to help!” Nianyang turned on her crazy brainwashing mode. She would say anything to achieve her goal.

In her previous life, she had even established a business empire in her spare time and opened different regional companies under her. The years of polishing at work had made her eloquent.
