Chapter 561 - 266: Porsche Cayenne and the Perfect Feng Shui Location for Opening a Store!

Jiang Tao had not been driving into Beijing for long.

The first to fall asleep, Yuan Mengqi, woke up.

"Huh, where are we now?"

Yuan Mengqi turned her head to look outside the window and found that the sky had already darkened.

Moreover, the scenery outside had changed from endless fields to towering skyscrapers.

Jiang Tao smiled and said, "We just entered Beijing not long ago. We’ll be home in about an hour."

"Ah? We’ve already, already entered Beijing?"

Yuan Mengqi thought Jiang Tao was joking with her, but looking at the scenery outside, it really did seem like they were in Beijing.

"How long have I been sleeping..."

Yuan Mengqi rubbed her head, feeling like she had just fallen asleep for a short while.

Unexpectedly, they came directly from her hometown to Beijing.

Jiang Tao laughed and said, "I didn’t wake you because you looked so tired."

"I’m sorry, Jiang Tao. You drove all the way without anyone to talk to. You must be tired, sleepy, and bored, right?"

Yuan Mengqi turned her head to look at Jiang Tao, her face full of apologetic expression.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw her mother, brother, and sister-in-law leaning on the back seat, looking like they hadn’t fully woken up yet.

Yuan Mengqi secretly reached out her hand towards Jiang Tao, holding his large hand on the armrest box.

The moment their hands were clasped together,

Yuan Mengqi seemed to feel a wave of happiness transmitting from Jiang Tao’s hand to her body.

"With Squad Leader Yuan by my side, how could it be boring?"

"When I get tired or sleepy while driving, I just look at you and suddenly I’m not sleepy anymore."

Jiang Tao said with a smile while driving.

"I have a refreshing effect?"

Yuan Mengqi looked at Jiang Tao with a sweet smile. Those two sentences just now made her heart feel sweet.

"Absolutely, it’s incredibly refreshing."

Just as Yuan Mengqi was being showered with Jiang Tao’s sweet talk and feeling a surge of happiness,

Jiang Tao moved the hand on the armrest box, along with hers, back to her own thigh.

Yuan Mengqi was wearing a pair of light gray yoga pants today, cool and smooth to the touch.

Feeling the warmth from Jiang Tao’s large hand,

Yuan Mengqi’s facial temperature also began to rise, her heart racing.

Touching her leg was not a big deal.

But with her mom, brother, and sister-in-law sitting in the back,

the sneaky sensation felt a bit exciting.

Luckily, it was already dark outside, and the car’s lights weren’t bright, so no one would notice Yuan Mengqi’s abnormal expression.

She shot Jiang Tao a playful glare and let him have his way.

"Is this how you keep awake?"

Yuan Mengqi looked at Jiang Tao with affectionate eyes and a coquettish tone in her voice.

"Yes."

Jiang Tao responded confidently.

"You’re too much..."

Faced with a rascal like Jiang Tao, Yuan Mengqi couldn’t do much.

Jiang Tao changed the subject and asked, "Feeling better now?"

"..."

Yuan Mengqi naturally knew what he was referring to when she heard those words.

Her already slightly flushed face turned even redder.

This guy actually had the nerve to ask!

But...

Yuan Mengqi also knew this wasn’t Jiang Tao’s fault; she was more than 70% responsible.

For most of their previous interactions, she had been the one leading.

She had just misjudged Jiang Tao’s abilities.

Jiang Tao said nonchalantly:

"When we passed the B State Service Area I saw a pharmacy, so I bought some medicine for you. You can take it when we get out of the car."

"..."

Hearing Jiang Tao’s words, Yuan Mengqi was suddenly touched by him again.

This kind of subtle care really reflected the attention and love someone had for her.

"Jiang Tao..."

Yuan Mengqi cupped Jiang Tao’s hand, still exploring upwards, with both of hers, looking at him with eyes filled with almost overflowing love.

"Oh, right. I had a friend rent a new apartment for you guys over at Century City."

"It’s a four-bedroom, one living room, and two bathrooms. The layout is better than the old place, and the location is better too."

Yuan Mengqi knew why Jiang Tao changed their living arrangements, but they both tacitly didn’t mention it.

"Mm, thank you, Jiang Tao. Sorry for the trouble."

"No need to thank me."

"One should be grateful, even to you."

Yuan Mengqi held Jiang Tao’s hand tighter, she would never let go of this man for the rest of her life.

"If you find anything uncomfortable when moving in, don’t put up with it, don’t tolerate it."

"Got it, you’re even more nagging than my mom."

Despite calling Jiang Tao nagging, Yuan Mengqi was delighted and happy inside.

This feeling of being cared for meticulously by the man she loved was amazing!

"By the way, Squad Leader Yuan... oh no, at work I should call you Manager Yuan."

"Is there a car you like, Manager Yuan? I’ll get you one for commuting."

"No need, I can just take the subway or a taxi."

"You definitely need one; you’re a manager at our company, representing our company’s image. How can you go without a car for travel?"

"Are you really getting me a car?"

Yuan Mengqi looked at the man she loved with a face full of happiness; she had never been happier than today.

"Of course, it’s for real."

"I think just getting a car around a hundred thousand should be fine."

"Forget it, let me decide on the car purchase. You just wait to drive."

"Okay, I’ll listen to you."

Yuan Mengqi sat quietly by his side like a newlywed bride.

They chatted lightly about work, then about the food and sights in Beijing.

Though Yuan Mengqi longed for Jiang Tao to accompany her and check everything off their list, staying by her side 24 hours a day never leaving.
