Chapter 1370: Breakdown

Gao Zhe endured it all.

He didn’t retort a single word.

Lu Zhenzhen wasn’t used to his silent demeanor, as if he couldn’t even let out a fart for ages.

Her anger was boiling up to her head, but she managed to suppress half of it, glaring at him before getting into the car.

As the car left Lu Family, Nan Jiaojiao looked back at the car following them and sighed, “A fierce woman is afraid of a persistent man.”

Lu Zhenzhen’s eyelids twitched, “If you don’t know how to use metaphors, don’t randomly use them.”

“They’re following us, so where are you planning to go?”

“I’ll go wherever I need to.

He knows where I live, and even if you gave him ten guts, he wouldn’t dare harass me.”

Nan Jiaojiao clicked her tongue and shook her head, “Really fierce.”

Lu Zhenzhen glanced at her sideways, “Aren’t you going to advise me on anything?”

“Why would I advise you?

Among the three of us, you’re the strongest-willed.

Once you’ve decided, not even eight horses can pull you back.

I’m not anyone to Gao Zhe, so why advise and risk being scolded by you?

I must have a screw loose to do that!”

Lu Zhenzhen’s mouth twitched, feeling she was about to get laugh lines, “You really are…

I concede.”

Nan Jiaojiao leaned back into her seat.

She wanted to eat some pastries, but didn’t dare dirty Lu Zhenzhen’s car, so she held back.

Her car would be driven back to the Lu Family by a driver.

Lu Zhenzhen dropped her off beneath Feisheng Tower and then left.

Lu Zhenzhen still lived in the same apartment.

She was used to it and it was close to the company, too lazy to move.

Halfway there, the car inexplicably broke down.

She got out to check but had no clues, so she called for a tow.

A car approached from the opposite side with high beams on, blinding Lu Zhenzhen in the intense light.

She bumped her shoulder on the raised hood, and somehow, the lid came down, trapping her hand.

“Hiss!”

Lu Zhenzhen dropped her phone.

Before she could raise her hand, a figure quickly dashed over, holding her hand to examine it carefully.

Her initial reaction was to avoid it, but when she looked up and saw it was Gao Zhe, she disgracefully froze for a moment, and in that split second, he lifted her up.

“I have medicine in my car, let me apply some.”

Lu Zhenzhen kicked his side, “Put me down!”

Gao Zhe grunted, “Your hand is injured.”

“My hand’s injured, but my foot isn’t.

Get your filthy hands off me!”

Gao Zhe paused, looked down at her, his handsome face cast with sharp shadows from the streetlight, adding a touch of weariness to his eyes, gazing intently at her.

The deep affection in his eyes was like a whirlpool, easily drawing her in.

“I’ll put you down, but don’t run.”

Lu Zhenzhen was unhappy hearing this.

What, did he think she was a criminal?

“My legs are my own!”

“Your hand’s injured and the car’s broken down.

I’ll apply medicine, and we’ll wait here for the tow truck.

If you refuse, I’ll carry you to the hospital, get your wound treated, and then take you home.”

Lu Zhenzhen felt her temples throbbing with pain.

“Gao Zhe!”

Angry and at her wit’s end, all she could do was shout his name, unable to utter a single extra word.

Gao Zhe pressed his lips together, saying nothing.

He waited and as Lu Zhenzhen no longer resisted, he placed her on the hood of his car and quickly went to the trunk to fetch a first aid kit.

When Lu Zhenzhen saw the pink kit, her eyelid twitched.

She had bought it for fun and after a couple of days of novelty, she tossed it to him.

He’d kept it in the car ever since, always stocked with medicine.

Once, she had a spat with a female celebrity from his company, and the other person tried to set her up.

She went over with a baseball bat and hurt the other person, but ended up getting quite injured herself.
