Chapter 1433 - Take Care Of Yourself (2/2)
A luxurious sedan stopped in front of the hotel. Waving goodbye, Ann sashayed back to the comfort of her hotel room. Meanwhile, Yin Zhihan drove Lu Ning back to her apartment.
In the stillness of the car, only the sounds of Zhihan and Lu Ning's breathing punctuated the silence.
”Are you really dating Zhu Yuchen?” Yin Zhihan suddenly asked.
Lu Ning looked at him but chose not to answer his question directly. ”Is something the matter?”
”Zhu Yuchen's personal life is clean. Among the rich second generation, he is young and shows a decent level of self-restraint. He is not a bad choice as your life's partner. Yet, it does not look like he cares much for you. He threw you into the fire despite knowing you were the one in charge when this leak occurred. It's evident he cares more about his career than he does you. I heard over the grapevine how he has broken into the European market recently. It seems his bid for success has borne fruit.”
”Lu Ning,” Yin Zhihan eyed her through the rearview mirror, ”Have you thought this through? Zhu Yuchen isn't a simple person. He might not be pursuing you for covert reasons. It's very likely he already knows you are the heiress to the Lu family. You need not doubt my intentions. I'm merely cautioning you as a friend.”
Of course, Zhihan was worried for her. They were friends, after all. He was simply behaving in a manner any good friend would. He was offering her his objective analysis of the person she was going to date. What more could she ask for in a friend? Logic dictated that she ought to be glad for having such a thoughtful friend, but the heart is a curious creature unbound by reason, and here, it rebelled.
Rage thrummed in her chest. Zhihan had fallen out with her faster than flipping through a book. A month ago, he had said that he wanted to pursue her, but now no sign of his earlier passion was apparent in his demeanour towards her. Zhihan changed too quickly. He was inconstant.
”I know!” After saying that, Lu Ning looked out of the window. It was clear she didn't want to talk to him.
Yin Zhihan didn't say anything else. Soon, the car stopped in front of the apartment.
”Please excuse me, President Yin. Thank you for driving me home.” Lu Ning opened the back door.
”Lu Ning.” Yin Zhihan turned around and looked at her. ”Take care of yourself. I'll probably be away for the next six months.”
Lu Ning's little hand froze on the door handle as she stared blankly at Yin Zhihan.
