Chapter 544: Desperate to Save You
As if he had known for a long time that Shangguan Wanbai would ask this question, Li Zi'an was not surprised at all, but just smiled and glanced at the emerald studs on Shangguan Wanbai's earlobes.
"Because I implanted a chip in your earrings, I saw that your positioning has been staying in the suburbs, and I realized that you were out of school." Li Zi'an turned the steering wheel in his hand.
"What? You say you're putting a chip in my earring?! Hearing this, Shangguan Wanbai was surprised, and then bit her lower lip, as if she was a little angry.
She was silent for a moment and said angrily, "You are violating my privacy!" β
After saying that, she raised her hand and touched the studs on her earlobes, feeling the urge to rip the studs off.
"Remember the last time Lin Man framed you? I was like, what if something happens to you one day? I can't be by your side all the time, and I can't know how you're going right now. β
Li Zi'an sighed, he knew that Shangguan Wanbai would be angry when he knew about the chip, but there was no way to do it.
If you can protect her thoroughly, even if she misunderstands her, it doesn't matter if she complains.
"But...... But you can't just microchip my studs without my permission for that reason. Shangguan Wanbai's reproachful voice was a little quieter than just now.
She stubbornly twisted her head out of the window, looking at the regressing scenery, still uncomfortable.
Li Zi'an's practice of cutting first and then playing later made her feel as if she had returned to the old days, at that time, Li Zi'an never asked her opinion, and was always so arbitrary and dictatorial.
"Wanbai, don't be angry, I'm also nervous about your safety, this time you were kidnapped because of the chip, I can learn that you have an accident in time, and rush over to save you."
The atmosphere in the car was dull, and the two of them didn't talk much, Li Zi'an quietly looked at Shangguan Wanbai's face while driving the car.
"I know it's my fault, if you really don't like the studs, then take them off and throw them away, but I hope you don't ignore me."
Li Zi'an's voice at this time was full of grievances and softness, and when he heard it, Guan Wanbai's heart tightened, and his heart began to waver.
She should be angry, but I have to say that if Li Zi'an hadn't arrived in time this time, she, Jian Maoxun and Lin Man would have suffered.
In this way, Li Zi'an saved them, and thinking about it like this, Shangguan Wanbai felt that he should not blame Li Zi'an, otherwise he would repay his kindness with resentment.
"I didn't say ignore you, and I won't throw these studs." Shangguan Wanbai muttered quietly, a little awkward.
When Li Zi'an saw her like this, he knew that she was actually angry, and then showed a pleasant smile.
"Then I will continue to wear these earrings in the future, so that if you encounter danger again, I will still rush to your side to save you as I did today." Li Zi'an reached out and rubbed Shangguan Wanbai's hair.
Hearing this, Shangguan Wanbai's heart fluttered and beat rapidly, and he felt as if Li Zi'an was a hero who specialized in saving himself.
"Okay." Shangguan Wanbai nodded in compromise.
At this time, it was already more than eleven o'clock in the evening, Li Zi'an quickly drove Shangguan Wanbai to the door of Shangguan's house, and then left.
As soon as Shangguan Wanbai entered the door, he saw Shangguan Yu and Jian Maoxun, who had already returned early, and Ke Huan was applying medicine to Jian Maoxun's fist that had been scratched during the fight.
"Wanbai, you're back!"
When Jian Maoxun heard the sound of the door opening, he immediately turned his head to look at the entrance, and when he saw that it was Shangguan Wanbai, he immediately stood up from the sofa excitedly.
"What did that kid Li Zi'an say to you in the car?" Shangguan Yu asked with a calm face.
"It's nothing, I'm just thanking him for his help today." Shangguan Wanbai replied lightly and sat down next to Jian Maoxun, "Maoxun, are you okay?" β
Jian Maoxun held Shangguan Wanbai's hand and showed an apologetic look: "I'm fine, it's just that I couldn't protect you today, I'm sorry." β
He was subdued by Ah Qiang's people today, causing Shangguan Wanbai to almost be hurt, and now that everything is over, Jian Maoxun feels more and more guilty in his heart.
As a person who has been in the business world for many years, Jian Maoxun has always been very confident in himself, but this time he failed in front of his fiancΓ©e, and his self-esteem was frustrated for a while.
"It's okay, you have tried your best to protect me and Lin Man at that time, there are too many of them, and it is normal that you can't cope with it alone." Shangguan Wanbai smiled lightly and comforted Jian Maoxun.
But Jian Maoxun couldn't be relieved in his heart, Li Zi'an was also dealing with dozens of people by himself at that time, but he was able to win more with less.
Thinking of this, Jian Maoxun had a feeling of losing to Li Zi'an.
"Wanbai, although it was Li Zi'an who saved you today, but one yard is one yard, you don't have to deal with that kid in the future, you know?" Shangguan Yu's tone was serious.
Li Zi'an hurt Shangguan Wanbai heavily before, this is not something that can be saved by a hero, Shangguan Yu still has no good impression of that man.
"Dad, he is kind to me today, we shouldn't be so defensive against him, isn't that a grudge to repay the favor? If it's just a normal exchange, it shouldn't be anything. Shangguan Wanbai frowned, disagreeing with Shangguan Yu's words.
"That kid must not be dead to you, have you forgotten how he treated you before?!" Shangguan Yu was anxious and slapped the table angrily.
Kehuan next to him looked at Shangguan Wanbai, and there was some schadenfreude in his heart.
"Dad, I don't want to continue to discuss this matter, because you are the one who does not distinguish between public and private." Shangguan Wan stood up suddenly, turned around and went upstairs, "I'm tired, go back to the room to rest first." β
"Wanbai ......" Jian Maoxun looked at the back that was gradually moving away, and felt depressed.
Shangguan Yu was silent for a moment, and then sighed, feeling that he might have spoken more heavily just now, Shangguan Wanbai had just been rescued, and he shouldn't have discussed Li Zi'an with her at this time.
"Maoxun, let you see the joke, you're tired today, right? Go home early and rest. Shangguan Yu said to Jian Maoxun embarrassedly.
"No, in my heart, we have already become a family, how can it be a joke? My assistant is waiting outside, so I'll take my leave. β
Jian Maoxun thanked Kehuan who had helped him treat his wound just now, and then walked out of Shangguan's house and asked the assistant to carry him back to his home.
When he returned, he still had a tricky matter to deal with, and that was Linman's matter.
After today's incident, Jian Maoxun understood that he had no way to let Lin Man borrow it anymore, he and Shangguan Wanbai were already engaged, and leaving Lin Man by his side would be misunderstood.
