Lin Fan reached out, quickly grasping Guo Xue's small hand. With a tug, he pressed his other hand against her waist.
In an instant, Guo Xue found herself pressed against Lin Fan's chest.
He whispered softly, "Auntie, is that so?"
Guo Xue's heart raced violently, and after a brief moment of shock, her fear dissipated. However, she felt an overwhelming shyness wash over her.
"Can you let go of me?" she said quietly.
After Lin Fan released her, Guo Xue's chest rose and fell rapidly. With a hint of lingering fear on her face, she said, "I really didn't mean to."
"No harm done. Let's head down," Lin Fan replied, extending his hand to take hold of Guo Xue's arm as they walked downstairs.
If anyone else were to hold Guo Xue's arm, her first instinct would be to break free. But with Lin Fan, she felt no urge to escape; instead, she found herself wanting to comply with him.
The two arrived in the garage, where Lin Fan was greeted by a collection of luxury cars. Guo Xue turned her gaze toward him and asked proudly, "Which one do you want? Just say it."
Lin Fan's eyes landed on a matching Lamborghini as he inquired, "How about this one?"
Guo Xue pursed her lips and asked, "Do you all like luxury cars?"
Lin Fan replied softly, "Not really; I just like what looks cool. I think this one is stylish."
"Hmph, that's easy to say," Guo Xue said with a playful blink, smiling as she asked, "Let me ask you this: if at first, a car is particularly beautiful, especially new, but you’ve driven it for a while, and then someone offers you another car, would you drive it?"
Lin Fan blinked awkwardly at Guo Xue and replied, "Auntie, are you talking about driving a car?"
He couldn't quite understand why. Given Lin Fan's intelligence, he was certain that Guo Xue wasn't just talking about a car. Perhaps she meant something else.
Pouting slightly and in a somewhat coy manner, she pressed him, "Come on, just tell me if you would drive it or not!"
Lin Fan replied seriously, "If it's mine, then I would drive it. If it's not mine, why would I? I only drive the cars I buy myself."
He had a feeling that Guo Xue was referring to people instead of vehicles. So that was how he answered.
Guo Xue whispered, "What about a car worth ten thousand?"
"Uh..." Lin Fan responded, "Auntie, what kind of car costs ten thousand?"
As soon as he said this, Guo Xue's expression shifted to one of annoyance.
Lin Fan awkwardly added, "Auntie, why are you playing these brain teasers with me? You could just say that the car represents a person and be done with it."
"Hmph! That's not the point!" Guo Xue pouted playfully before hopping into the driver's seat and saying, "Get in."
Lin Fan climbed into the back seat.
Guo Xue pressed the accelerator and sped out.
"Hey."
Lin Fan's expression darkened.
As the Lamborghini drove out of the villa area, a truck passed in front of them.
With a loud bang, the two vehicles brushed past each other in an instant.
Then, with a crunching sound, the Lamborghini flipped over.
"Auntie!"
Lin Fan exclaimed, immediately throwing himself onto Guo Xue's lap to help her fasten her seatbelt.
He had already buckled his own seatbelt when they started driving.
With another loud crash, the car collided into the greenbelt.
Bang!
Two airbags deployed.
Fortunately, neither of them sustained any serious injuries.
Guo Xue stared blankly at Lin Fan.
His reaction had been incredibly quick! He had fastened the seatbelt in an instant.
Moreover, when Lin Fan lunged towards her just now, she felt it distinctly—his hand resting on her thigh was particularly warm and reassuring.
"What’s wrong?"
Seeing Guo Xue staring at him in a daze, Lin Fan couldn't help but wave his hand in front of her face.
