Chapter 637 Crazy thoughts in his mind (1/2)

As rain serenade on the metal roof of Yue Ling's white Maserati Granturismo sports car, she sat in the passenger seat with eyes wondering out the window.

Like her, Lu Tian who had offered to drive kept his eyes on the slippery road in front.

When they left the restaurant, Lu Tian suggested they go to a clothing store to buy new clothes since their house was far. However, Yue Ling protested and said for them to go to her company.

However, throughout the car ride, neither person spoke a word.

The sound of the heater and trickling rain can be heard like music singing one to sleep as every few second, the windshield wipers would move to clear off any rain.

Unable to take the silence anymore, Lu Tian lifts his hand to massage his forehead to get rid of his frustration. He made sure to not cover his eyes so he can still see the road.

Even without looking at her, from the corner of his eyes, he can tell that her mind was preoccupied with something.

He wanted to ask her who was the person she was looking for, but he was also afraid to ask. What if she gives him the cold shoulder for wanting to know too much? What if the person is someone who is more important to her than he is?

The space between his brows crease together and he frowns with slightly pout lips. He couldn't believe that someone as cold and aloof as him could have this kind of foolish thoughts.

Chuckling at himself, he shakes his head to rid of any unnecessary feelings.

'I am important to her. If I weren't, she wouldn't have kissed me back despite knowing that the person she is looking for could still be around.'

As he spoke these words to himself, he began to feel better, but within the next second, another thought sneaks its way inside his head.

'But what if… no… but then again… no…'

After a long minute of talking to himself, he finally muster all the courage inside and asks.

”What are you thinking about?”

He asked in his usual indifferent tone that Yue Ling was oblivious to the fact that his mind was in a chaotic mess. She looks away from the passenger window to the devilishly handsome man in the driver seat.

Slightly leaning towards him, her expression was one of solemn. Her bluish green eyes stare directly at him making him grow agitated beyond imaginable.

”Would you prefer Shredded Ginger Chicken Congee or Spicy Pork Shoulder Congee?”

”…”

Lu Tian was wash with disbelief at her question. He swore it was like someone had sliced open the roof of the car and allowed the cold rain to pour onto him.

He close his eyes for a quick second to steady his mind and turn to look at her.

”That is what you've been thinking about?”

Seeing him suddenly turn to look at her, Yue Ling was taken back by surprise. Both her hands reach out to him as one lightly hit his arm for being careless while her other hand turn his head back to the road.

”Tian, you're driving! It's raining so don't take your eyes off the road.”

As his head turn away from her, she did not see the tiny smile of relief that curled on his lip.

He had been going back and forth from crazy thoughts in his mind and it turned out she was thinking about what he wanted to eat.

”Chicken is fine with me.”

Hearing his answer, Yue Ling looks at him with a small squint of her eyes. She couldn't help but feel that he was expecting a different response from her.

However, seeing him as indifferent as always, she shrugs the thought away and takes out her phone.
