CHAPTER 552: CHAPTER 552: EVEN THE TYCOONS ARE SO SENTIMENTAL
The man’s explanation at this time seemed to have little effect.
Lu Jing gave a nervous laugh twice, said nothing more, and briskly left the surveillance room.
Jiang Ye froze where he stood, sighed helplessly, then hurried after him.
"Wife, honey, wait for me."
It would have been better if he hadn’t said that, for the woman in front instantly quickened her pace.
After leaving the hotel, she hailed a taxi and slammed the door shut:
"Driver, please go quickly."
"Okay."
For taxi drivers who spend all day running around the city, this kind of situation is nothing surprising.
After driving a distance, the driver finally asked:
"Miss, what’s wrong? Did you argue with your boyfriend?"
Lu Jing pressed her lips together. Before she even had a chance to answer, the driver had already started chatting blithely:
"You young people are like this, we don’t have the energy for that anymore, you know.
Miss, I see your boyfriend is really worried about you."
"Is he?" finally spoke.
The driver glanced in the rearview mirror, his face full of a knowing smile:
"Don’t believe it? Then look behind us, isn’t that car following us your boyfriend’s?"
???
Since getting in the taxi, Lu Jing had not looked back once and was unaware that someone had been following them the whole time.
It was only after hearing the driver’s words that she turned around.
Cough cough, the car leisurely following just behind the taxi—could it be anyone else but Jiang Ye driving?
When in the world had he followed her out?
For a moment, Lu Jing felt slightly uncomfortable.
Blame the driver looking like he was enjoying a good show.
"Miss, getting off?"
Lu Jing paused for about two seconds, then decisively spoke:
"No!"
Certainly, she wasn’t getting off.
He wanted to follow, right?
Then let him follow!
The driver’s face was almost splitting with glee:
"Alright, where to, then?" he joked.
Lu Jing hadn’t really thought about it, her mind all muddled at the moment.
"Um, just drive around the city center."
As for how long they would roam, that would be decided later.
The driver wasn’t handling such a customer for the first time:
"Okay, then make yourself comfortable, miss."
...
A rare scene appeared in the city center of Jing City—a taxi continuously circling around, followed calmly by an extremely expensive luxury car, drawing quite a few gazes.
"Hey, hey, isn’t that the newest model of the Rolls Royce that just came out this year?"
"Yes, it’s a limited edition—only three in the world, they say."
Hmm?
"How much? Ten million?"
"Ten million won’t cut it; too many people vying for it, add another zero."
Sss~
So, is it one hundred million?
Wow, now that’s really a sky-high price.
"Why is it following a taxi? Chasing his girlfriend? Are rich guys so ardent?"
"What else could it be? Like they have nothing better to do? This kind of scene usually only happens in TV shows when chasing a girl."
Jiang Yekou didn’t care about the passersby’s comments since he didn’t hear them.
Even if he had heard, it likely wouldn’t have elicited much reaction, apart from maybe getting flustered when someone called him a ’rich tycoon.’
The car had already made five loops around the city center and was about to start the sixth.
Jiang Ye glanced at the time and reluctantly picked up his phone to dial a number.
Fortunately, he wasn’t on the blocked list.
"Hello?"
"Wife, have you calmed down yet?"
