Chapter 759: Chapter 296: Inside the Car_3
"Sweetie, have you thought it through? Who would just give you so much money for no reason and still find people to serve me... Honestly, grandma’s not much, just worried you won’t live well... You’ve had a tough life, born so pretty, grandma’s always thinking about you..."
In a haze, Miao Ying recalled returning to the village that day, under a sky full of stars, leaning on grandma’s leg, recounting events since meeting Zhou Wang.
Outside, Miao Ying was mostly quiet, but when speaking in dialect with her grandma, she could speak a lot in one go.
She told her grandma she was now living in a huge house, driving a nice car, and her boss was very kind to her, not only advancing a lot of money but also helping contact specialists in Magic City hospitals and finding several imported special medicines...
The only bad part was that her boss was "not very proper."
Zhou Wang was actually unaware that on the day he first met Miao Ying, she had seen him outside the café.
Back then, Zhou Wang was sitting in the Volvo driven by Xu Wenqian. On the road, because Xu Wenqian dared to "mock" him, Zhou Wang gave her a little punishment.
At that moment, Miao Ying was riding her motorcycle, passing by the Volvo, catching a glimpse of Zhou Wang’s mischievous hand under Xu Wenqian’s skirt...
That was why when she first saw Zhou Wang, she forgot the headhunter manager’s prior reminder and didn’t even put on a smile.
Although she wasn’t very good with people and didn’t like to smile, she could smile. Still, she did not smile at Zhou Wang.
Xu Wenqian was Zhou Wang’s assistant, so if she became Zhou Wang’s driver, would she also have to endure his "harassment"?
Due to this underlying resistance, Miao Ying interrupted the headhunter manager, proactively presenting her own "difficult condition"—
An annual salary of three hundred thousand, and she hoped for an advance on a portion.
Actually, according to the headhunting company’s initial assessment of her, a two hundred thousand annual salary was her real bottom line, and as for the "advance," it was a demand that could only be tried, as most employers were unlikely to agree.
However, Zhou Wang agreed so readily, so Miao Ying thought at that moment, perhaps, this was fate...
She really needed a sum of money because her grandma’s health had become very poor. The mountain herbs could no longer save her grandma, only the English medicines marked with "$" symbols could take effect.
At least, this boss looked passably decent.
Miao Ying didn’t think too much, so when Zhou Wang truly fulfilled his promise, on that day, Miao Ying leaned on grandma’s leg, holding grandma’s withered, marked hand, whispered softly:
"Grandma, tell Brother Xiaoshu to stop bringing things, you endure what he says... I’m already married."
Not everything in the world was grand and flamboyant; much more was hidden silently in the ordinary.
A girl who’d never entertained delusions of love had, in fact, already opened up a bit to Zhou Wang during the ride to Li City.
She wasn’t vain or money-loving, but being with Zhou Wang allowed her grandma to live well, and that was enough.
...
Zhou Wang really didn’t know the sort of inner journey Miao Ying had gone through. This guy, only interested in taking, once he realized Miao Ying showed no signs of resistance, grew even bolder.
Miao Ying’s V-neck silk shirt got wrinkled, and her twenty-thousand-plus dress was reduced to a tangled mess.
At a certain moment, Zhou Wang let go of Miao Ying, who was slightly panting, her neck covered in goosebumps. He saw the scar under Miao Ying’s ribs.
It seemed to be a mark left by some kind of surgery, starting under the ribs and weaving through the crescent moon’s gap.
As Zhou Wang scrutinized, Miao Ying, who had endured silently the whole time, showed a hint of panic and resistance for the first time, as if trying to evade and cover up.
"Don’t... It’s beautiful."
Zhou Wang stopped her, staring intently, refusing to look away for even a moment.
Because he genuinely thought it was beautiful.
Miao Ying, who kept fit constantly, although her curves were not as sexy as Shen Yutong’s, exuded a beauty honed by strength, with visible abs and faint muscle lines mingling with that scar, stunningly beautiful.
"Mmm..."
Miao Ying hugged Zhou Wang’s head, her gaze becoming vacant again.
...
In the end, Miao Ying ended up with a "hickey" on her neck and a little sprinkle in her abdomen.
After all, it was in an outdoor parking lot, so Zhou Wang didn’t really go too far, but thinking back to it, he still couldn’t help but smack his lips.
Was he too indecent, that just holding hands led to this situation?
He didn’t quite understand, Miao Ying seemed to indulge him too much, this girl, never truly engaging deeply with him, had such high endurance for him, making Zhou Wang feel both satisfied and a bit guilty...
Because in Zhou Wang’s view, there seemed to be many missing processes.
Returning to the courtyard suite, Miao Ying dashed upstairs head down, while Zhou Wang felt somewhat unsettled, since while the experience was there, it was neither here nor there.
Jiang Qingkui went to her alma mater, Beijing University, for an exchange activity earlier today. Though she had arranged dinner for Zhou Wang, she hadn’t returned yet.
At that moment in the courtyard, besides Miao Ying who just ran upstairs, only the sisters Yun Rou and Yun Lan were in their rooms entertaining themselves.
Although Ding Yi was arriving soon, there seemed to be some time, so feeling ultimately restless, Zhou Wang, while heading to his suite, took out his phone and sent a message to Yun Rou and Yun Lan:
"Come to the room quickly... I’m feeling really dirty right now."
