Buying some mock exams in town? Stay in town for tonight and come back tomorrow afternoon? Isn't this a bit overkill?
Most importantly, he did not want to travel with Xia Jinyuan at all.
He put all his strength into rejecting it. Of course, Xia Jinyuan, who had always been interested and sensitive, was aware of her unwillingness.
Nevertheless, they need to go to the city because he has to take her to the police station to identify the suspects.
“I've been driving for nine years since I was eleven. So, you can trust me, Ye Jian.” Raising his eyebrows slightly, he showed a slight mischievous smile. But when he turned to talk to School Head Chen, he replaced his playful look with a serious one. "Uncle Chen, rest assured, I promise to send Ye Jian back safely tomorrow afternoon."
The car had driven for tens of kilometers, but Ye Jian was still furious.
Sitting in his chair nonchalantly, he did not glance at Xia Jinyuan at all. But Xia Jinyuan was not angry. Instead, he looked at her from time to time.
The car drove out of the national road winding in the deep mountains. Xia Jinyuan did not speak until she drove down the highway towards the city, “It looks like I have offended you again. Your face is tense like a chain of bullets.”
"I'm not disappointed. I just don't want to talk to you, ” Ye Jian said with a cold expression on his face, rubbing his forehead and leaning against the back pillow. “This is the gun. Why do you have to take me to the city? And you didn't ask me if I approve of this or not.”
That's why he's unhappy. Xia Jinyuan apologized to him, “I have to take you to the city from the beginning. I'm very sorry I didn't tell you before. But…"
"Captain Xia, I don't like anyone making decisions for me when I'm kept a secret," Ye Jian cut him off frankly. He tilted his head, looking at her coldly. “I hate him so much!”
…
He slightly held back the smile on his handsome face. When he spoke again, his clear and gentle voice definitely contained respect towards Ye Jian. “Ye Jian, I'm so sorry. I made a decision only from my point of view and did not consider your feelings.”
Exactly right. He should not treat this girl like a child. He needs to treat her like an adult, just like himself.
“You should go to the city police station with me because of that gun. Relax, you will not be involved in anything. It is the police office that needs to record the existence of this gun.”
“The city police office only gave me 24 hours, that's why I have to take you there tonight,” Xia Jinyuan explained seriously and thoroughly.
His apology, along with the respect he showed, made Ye Jian understand his position. Despite his cold facial expression, the conversation between them began to become normal. “I also have to apologize. I should have handed the gun in time.”
Ye Jian was not an unreasonable person. Instead, he was very thoughtful and considerate.
He was so intelligent that he knew the purpose of this trip when he heard that they were heading to the city.
The indifference he showed was to let Xia Jinyuan know what principles she was holding!
In his past life, he suffered great losses because he did not uphold his principles.
In this life, he had to let each of his acquaintances realize that he had his own tenacity and principles that no one could change!
Now that he had achieved his goal, he did not talk much about the topic anymore.
