A secret tryst? Her brotherly love triangle backfired.

Chapter 40 Danger Danger Danger
Thinking what?
Tang Wanwan glanced at the man steering the car out of the garage and said directly, "I don't know."

She was still having that bizarre dream when she had no time to pay attention to what he was thinking.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yanzhi was not surprised.

He held the steering wheel with his left hand and stretched out his right hand towards her, saying with a smile, "Come on, let's touch palm to palm, and I'll tell you something."

Tang Wanwan was speechless. "You should drive carefully."

"Trust my driving skills," he said, wiggling his knuckles and turning his head to look at me. "Will you let me lead it?"

Tang Wanwan: "..."

She covered her hand with his, and in the next instant, he tightened his grip on her fingers.

Finally, their fingers intertwined, palm to palm, just as he wished.

Jiang Yanzhi took a soft breath. "That day, when you were sitting in the passenger seat, I was thinking..."

He paused, then smiled warmly, "I'm thinking... sooner or later, you'll be mine."

His tone left no room for argument, completely unlike his previous nonchalant statement that he would never bother her again if she expressed regret.

As expected, it was a strategic retreat to force her to make a choice.

Tang Wanwan was inexplicably alarmed.

She glanced down at their clasped hands.

His palms were large, able to completely envelop hers; the knuckles were distinct, long and strong, holding hers firmly, the warmth passing between their pressed palms.

The scene was clearly beautiful, but she found it terrifying.

Her keen sixth sense was subtly warning her of danger.

But this was her own choice. Even if she was truly a lamb entering a tiger's den with nowhere to escape, it was still her own choice.

Jiang Yanzhi was oblivious to her panic, still rambling on about his feelings of falling in love at first sight.

“At that time, you didn’t really want to talk to me and kept staring out the window. I don’t know how long I stared at you.”

That day, she was watching the sunset, and he was driving, but he couldn't help but focus all his attention on her.

As the last rays of the setting sun fell on her face, he even had some other thoughts.

For example, why did they insist on going to that club so that she could meet Shen Xianyu?

He could have simply taken her to another place, a place Shen Xianyu could never find again.

Anyway, given his abilities, it's not like he can't do it.

Of course, he would keep these dark thoughts to himself.

Anyway, that day will never come.

That's wonderful; they are mutually in love and their feelings are mutual.

Seeing that she remained silent for a long time, Jiang Yanzhi gently squeezed her delicate fingertips. "And you?"

Tang Wanwan snapped out of her daze, “…What?”

Jiang Yanzhi said, "Tell me your first impression of me."

"..." Tang Wanwan remained silent. "What's there to say?"

"I want to know,"

Thinking she was just embarrassed, Jiang Yanzhi coaxed her a couple of times and then said, "I've already been honest with you, now it's your turn."

He just wanted to hear her express her feelings.

To make myself feel grounded in this hastily started relationship.

Tang Wanwan thought for a moment and said truthfully, "I just think you're quite a lecher. You're a complete stranger, yet you stared straight at me."

lecher.

Jiang Yanzhi's face darkened a shade. "And then?"

Tang Wanwan said, "Then you revealed your identity, and I knew you were 'Jiang Yanzhi,' so I took a good look at you and found that you were quite good-looking."

Jiang Yanzhi was deeply impressed by the look in her eyes. On the plane, after learning his identity, she had given him a proper once-over, and the emotions in her gaze were far too complex.

There was surprise at the incredible connection between the two, and also hesitation about his identity…

It was like the joy that flowed naturally from the first sight of someone who sparked your interest, and also like the astonishment and amazement at the appearance of this person...

In short, it was so complex that Jiang Yanzhi could never forget it.

That look in his eyes was also the source of his confidence that she most likely had feelings for him as well.

He smiled slightly. "And then? In the car, when it was just the two of us, what were you thinking?"

“…What could I possibly be thinking?” Tang Wanwan said. “Back then, I really didn’t intend to have an affair with you, nor did I make up my mind to give up Shen Xianyu and be with you.”

"Is that so?" Jiang Yanzhi reminded him, "But you broke up with Shen Xianyu the next morning."

"That's because Shen Xianyu's grandfather wanted us to get engaged, but his parents refused. That was the main reason that made me decide to break up with him."

This is the truth.

Tang Wanwan spoke without hesitation.

But after saying it, I realized that although it was the truth, the person next to me might not like to hear it.

She thought for a moment and added, "Of course, you're also a part of it. You're the absolute catalyst. Without you, even if his parents disagreed, I probably wouldn't have made this decision."

This short sentence made Jiang Yanzhi feel inexplicably stifled in the first half, but in the second half, it made him feel as refreshed as if the clouds had parted and the sun had come out.

The arrogant young master Jiang, who prided himself on his absolute emotional restraint, has finally learned what it means to have one's emotions manipulated by others.

This feeling is not pleasant.

The inability to control one's emotions is too unfamiliar and too dangerous for him.

For the rest of the journey, the car became quiet.

Tang Wanwan wondered why he had suddenly stopped talking. After thinking about what she had just said and finding nothing wrong with it, she was happy to have some peace and quiet.

To maintain the persona of someone who has fallen in love at first sight and is genuinely enamored with him at all times, one needs to concentrate fully and cannot relax for even a moment.

It's really tiring.

I'm afraid that if I give the wrong answer, he'll become suspicious.

He's so perceptive; if he discovers she's been lying to him, how will her supporting character storyline continue?

The black Land Rover came to a stop as the two men, each lost in their own thoughts, continued on their way.

Arrived.

This place is very remote, far from the city center.

Tang Wanwan looked out the car window at the unique and grand building. In the distance, she saw a row of people in white coats standing at the entrance, seemingly welcoming someone.

Apart from that, no other patients were seen coming in or out.

Clearly, this is not a legitimate hospital; it looks more like a private sanatorium.

It is quiet, elegant, and equipped with world-class medical equipment.

This is Jiang's property, and those people must be the leaders of the compound who received notice of their arrival and were waiting in advance.

It seems Jiang Yanzhi was right; the Jiang family has indeed made good progress in the medical field.

Tang Wanwan habitually took out a mask from her bag and put it on. After thinking for a moment, she handed one to the person next to her, saying, "Your face... should be covered up too."

It's not good to let people see their young master with a bruised and swollen face.

It affects one's dignity and bearing.

Jiang Yanzhi glanced at her and actually took it.

The two got out of the car, wearing matching masks. One was tall and slender, the other was petite and charming. Although neither of them showed their faces, their auras revealed that they were no ordinary people. Anyone who saw them would agree that they were a perfect match.

The people waiting at the gate of the courtyard had already come to greet them.

The leader was a middle-aged man who had obviously met Jiang Yanzhi before. His expression was extremely respectful, and his voice carried just the right amount of nervousness. He extended his arm to greet him, saying, "President Jiang, please come in. Everything is ready."

The battle has begun! There will be another chapter later, my darlings, keep reading and vote!
