It seemed that her unintentional actions had won him over. She felt like the atmosphere in the room had become much gentler after this exchange.
He drained the last bit of coffee from his cup and stood up.
He walked toward the door and said, "Let's go, I'll send you off."
She did not reject him.
She had nothing now. She couldn't put the wealth and power he offered her in jeopardy.
She was no longer the Zuo Aiai she had been yesterday. From now on, her goal was to be able to stand on her own two feet again in the shortest amount of time possible. She wanted her independence back. She was strong enough to support herself.
But for now, she could use anything Jin Di gave her.
She would try her best to protect her heart in front of Jin Di, but she would not pretend to be aloof in front of him.
Since she was already a whore, why go through all the the pretense?
Jin Di's garage was very large. There were at least twenty different types of cars, sports cars, and jeeps parked inside.
She was dazzled by what she saw. The Porsche Cayenne and Bentley Continental, both of which she'd seen him driving in over the past couple of days, were also in the garage.
Jin Di seemed to favor the Bentley Continental. Usually, Danil was the driver of the Cayenne. But when he drove by himself, he mostly drove the Continental.
She followed behind him, walking past rows of cars worth millions and tens of millions of dollars. Suddenly, her gaze fell on a white Lamborghini in the corner.
It was a limited edition model from 2009. When it came out, she'd still been in high school. Although she could be considered a rich second generation, she still could not afford such a luxury product worth tens of millions of dollars.
She'd liked it so much when it came out that she'd cut out an ad for it from a magazine and stuck it on her desk.
Chen Ziyi had sworn at the time that on the day of their wedding, he would give her this car.
By way of reply, she'd just arrogantly said, "You think you can buy me for the rest of my life with nothing more than a car? It's too cheap. I won't sell for that."
She didn't expect that, after so many years, she'd see the real thing, and in such circumstances...
She smiled and looked away. She followed Jin Di to his Bentley Continental.
While they were driving, Jin Di suddenly asked her,
"Are you angry?"
She smiled and said, "Why? Are you angry?"
He frowned and simply said two words: "Last night."
"It won't happen again. You're right. I'll pay more attention in the future." She was very obedient.
Every word was exactly what he wanted to hear.
But he only felt irritated. It was as if the distance between the two of them had suddenly grown farther again.
He suddenly missed her mischievous behavior in front of him yesterday afternoon, but he could not bring himself to say so.
In the end, he just drove silently, his face dark.
It was about a twenty minute journey and they soon reached the end. As soon as the car stopped, she smiled and said to him,
"Thank you."
He felt even more unhappy. When he saw her reach out to open the car door, he suddenly reached out to press the lock button.
There was a click as all the doors locked.
She pressed the door handle, but it wouldn't open. She obediently sat back in her seat. There was no hint of anger or displeasure on her face.
He really wanted to ask her what was going on, but if he said it out loud, it would seem as though he were actually concerned about her feelings. It made him feel very embarrassed.
He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket in frustration. He took one one out and lit it up. The car was soon filled with the smell of smoke
She frowned and wanted to cough, but she took a deep breath to hold it in.
He quickly finished a cigarette. She smiled and asked him, "It's getting late. Aren't you in a hurry to go to work?"
He turned to look at her with a strange look in his eyes. "Kiss me once and I'll let you go."
