The man's fingertips paused slightly, and a strange light flashed through his jet-black, sharp eyes.
It was too alike, too much so.
He locked his gaze onto Li Sheng's figure, as if searching for something.
When Ji Kaicheng turned his head from the driver's seat, he saw his master fixated on a certain spot, unable to snap out of it.
It was truly strange, what in the world could draw the Fifth Young Master's gaze so intensely, causing such an abnormal expression?.
Following his master's line of sight, Ji Kaicheng saw Li Sheng,who was too far from the road to hail a taxi.
There was no other reason than the fact that Li Sheng was exceptionally beautiful. Even if she was wearing an inconspicuous hospital gown, her innate beauty was striking, dazzling and radiant, making it impossible to ignore her.
Ji Kaicheng gasped in shock."Young Master, you-you're not looking at that little mute girl, are you? She's Li Youchang's youngest daughter, named Li Sheng. The entire Yaozhou City knows that she has a problematic character, a vicious and unsociable personality, and she always bullies her adopted sister, Jiang Chuchu!"
"Li Sheng?" Shen Xiuci lightly pronounced these two words, his deep and pleasant voice sounding particularly alluring, with a hint of profound meaning.
Ji Kaicheng was about to nod when he heard Shen Xiuci say calmly,
"Drive over."
Drive over?
Knowing full well that Li Sheng had a terrible character, why still go over there?
Ji Kaicheng's mind was in turmoil, but he didn't dare to disobey.
The luxury car slowly drove over.
Without any deviation, it stopped right in front of Li Sheng.
Li Sheng was slightly startled, and then she saw the car door open automatically. In the back seat sat a clear and elegant figure.
From the side, the man's back was straight, like a proud and noble pine tree. Every gesture he made exuded an inherent arrogance and nobility.
Like a god descending to the world, he could be admired from afar but not desecrated.
Li Sheng looked at him and saw the man slowly turn his head.
What came into view was an extremely handsome face.The man's features were exquisite, with a pair of enchanting peach blossom eyes that seemed to contain deep affection, making people blush and their hearts race. But upon closer inspection, they were as deep as a pool of water, dangerously alluring.
Li Sheng was stunned by his beauty. She had met many people before, but had never felt this way about anyone, as if he were a god, too dazzling to look at directly.
This man was a rare and perfect specimen, flawless in every way!
However, Li Sheng frowned.
The man's gaze was fixed on her, deep and unfathomable, with a hint of intense scrutiny and aggression.
Li Sheng's face grew cold and she looked back at him without flinching.
"Have you seen enough?" she asked.
Ji Kaicheng, in the driver's seat, was dumbfounded, his jaw dropping.
How could this mute girl dare to talk to his Fifth Young Master like that?.
But the key was…
His Fifth Young Master didn't seem to be angry at all?. Shen Xiuci smiled and gestured to Li Sheng.
"Get in the car, I'll take you there."Li Sheng adheres to the principle that when he can climb up the pole, he will never be soft-hearted.
So she got into the car without saying a word.
"Millennium Hotel, thank you."
She sat in the back seat with a good posture, neither humble nor overbearing, without any embarrassment or bewilderment.
The smile in Shen Xiuci's eyes grew stronger, but when he looked up, he saw Ji Kaicheng's expression of "am I sleepwalking?".
"Um?"
He had a half-smile, "Can't drive anymore?"
When Ji Kaicheng first woke upfrom his dream, he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Obey, fifth master."
The luxury car started and slowly merged into the traffic flow.
But today, for some reason, the road was extremely congested.
Li Sheng's face was calm, but he was silently counting the time in his heart.After delaying for so long, I'm afraid that the monitoring she wanted to retrieve might have already been deleted.
This monitoring is very important. It is directly related to whether she can convict the executioners who pushed the little girl into the water and held her head to prevent her from surfacing with the charge of attempted murder.
Of course... It doesn't matter if you don't have one.
She has a hundred ways to find evidence!
The atmosphere in the carriage was quiet. Li Sheng calmed down and smelled the faint scent of medicine floating in the air.
This clear medicinal fragrance came from the man beside him.
Li Sheng turned his head tolook, and inadvertently met Shen Xiuci's scorching gaze.
He seemed... to be looking at her all the time.
This man is a bit too blatant, right?
Li Sheng asked, "Do I know you?"
He replied without hesitation: "Shen resign."Li Sheng: "..."
So, what he meant by declaring his family name was that he didn't know each other before, but now he does?
Li Sheng paused, but still politely replied: "Li Sheng."
Unexpectedly, when the man heard her name, his smile became stronger, and then he extended his hand to her politely. His five fingers were clean and slender, and he was pampered and of extraordinary status at first glance.
Li Sheng was generous and extended his hand in the same way.
The two shook hands lightly, and they were separated at the touch of a touch.
No one noticed that when ShenXiuci withdrew his hand, he clenched it lightly, as if he wanted to keep the fleeting warmth in his hand.
Soon, the car stopped in front of the hotel.
Li Sheng thanked her and got out of the car. Unexpectedly, when she closed the car door, she found that Shen Xiuci also got off. He was standing right behind her, facing the scorching sun of early summer, his whole body seemed to be covered with gold, and he seemed to have a brilliance that made people unable to move their eyes away.
Before Li Sheng opened his mouth to ask, he Shi Shiran explained: "By the way."
Li Sheng raised his eyebrows and said nothing.
She entered the hotel, and went straight to the security room regardless of Shen Xiuci who followed unhurriedly behind her.
