“You got to be kidding me?! This the latest version of Maybach ! It’s too extravagant for me !” Zhou Qin Yang gaped at the luxury vehicle in front of her. The quality of the car is definitely better than her Volkswagen but the design is too boring.
Sinclair dismissed her complaints and opens the door for her, Zhou Qin Yang could not argue any further and enters in the car. As soon as she sat down, her mood did not get any better. ‘The seats are too hard…and the leather smell..ugh’ she wanted to jump out of the car but Sinclair already entered in the driver seat and locked it.
He starts the engine and look at Zhou Qin Yang through the rear mirror ” My lady, please put on your seat belt”
Zhou Qin Yang did as told and pull out her phone to message Lee Jun Ting ‘ I want my car back !’
Within a second she receives a reply from him ‘ I love you too. *heart emoji*’ Zhou Qin Yang didn’t want to argue anymore and left him on seen. She looks out of the window then she became aware that Sinclair was driving a bit over the speed limit. Zhou Qin Yang raise her eyebrow ” Sinclair, aren’t you driving a bit fast?”
Sinclair checks his side mirror before he replies Zhou Qin Yang ” My lady, forgive me that I didn’t mentioned this before. Earlier when we were in the car park, there was someone watching us. I was trying to see if they were tailing us.”
Sinclair expect Zhou Qin Yang to have a worried reaction instead he was taken aback how calm she was, she take her eyes off from the window. ” I knew it already. He was going to tail me until he saw you so don’t worry he gave up on tailing ” Zhou Qin Yang smiles to Sinclair from the rear mirror.
Indeed she knew there was someone after yesterday’s incident with Ru Hui Yue, she couldn’t let her guard down. Sinclair was impressed that she knew all along and even knew it was a man. Zhou Qin Yang then asks ” Sinclair, do you know any nearby place for me to stay? The person has been tailing me for two days, I assume he knows where I live now. ”
Sinclair nods ” I know the hotel where master owns a suite there or I can take you to Peach Blossom Land ”
” But Jun Ting is not at Peach Blossom Land, is it possible for me to enter without permission ?” Zhou Qin Yang had a curious expression.
Sinclair looks at his rear mirror once again at the ring on Zhou Qin Yang’s finger ” My lady is going to become part of the master family soon so don’t need to worry”
Zhou Qin Yang grasp what Sinclair meant when she saw that he was looking at the ring on her finger, felt embarrassed that she forgot about that. She twirls the ring on her finger and thought of Lee Jun Ting ” Let’s go to Peach Blossom then ”
After awhile Zhou Qin Yang’s shoulder relaxes, she was getting the hang of Sinclair’s presence. Zhou Qin Yang want to start a topic to break the ice after all he might going to be working by her side for a long time.
for visiting.
She clears her throat and manage to catch his attention ” So.. how long have you work with Jun Ting?”
” For 5 years. ”
His reply was so short that cause an awkward silence, Zhou Qin Yang quickly thought of another question to back up ” How did you start working under him? Judging from how you stand when I first saw you, you must be good at martial arts. ”
Sinclair is impressed that Zhou Qin Yang knew it from the way he stand, normally women would not know this common knowledge. “Master rescued me from slavery. I was trained to become an assassin since I was little.”
” Hmm… I see..” Zhou Qin Yang assumed that it has to do with one of Lee Jun Ting’s underworld work. She then smiles ” Then do you have anything to ask me? ”
Sinclair turn the steering wheel to drive into a junction ” I wouldn’t dare. ”
” Sinclair.” her voice made Sinclair’s muscle tense, she called him in a normal tone but why does it sound like command. “You are no longer in a slavery, relax. I cannot handle silence being in the same space with someone else so please speak to me or ask if you have any question.”
Zhou Qin Yang really cannot handle the silent air when being in the same space or room with someone, it can cause her anxiety as she is worried what is the person thinking about or judging her.
Sinclair’s hands tighten around the steering wheel hearing her words, and tries to relax. Since he grew up in a slavery, he wasn’t allow to speak or question to his owners. Even when Lee Jun Ting put him to train with the other fighters, he never spoke unless a question is direct to him.
He hesitate for a second before opening his mouth to ask ” How did my lady know there was someone tailing her? ”
” I lived in the underworld for a few years and picked up a thing or two.” Zhou Qin Yang is relief that he spoke up a bit. ” I am not good at fighting or martial arts but I know self defense. I also know how to use guns ”
“Anything else you want to ask? ” she leans on her prop arm. Seeing that Sinclair had a hard time picking his words, makes her want to tease him a bit. After a few minutes of silence, she chuckles ” It’s alright, take your time and ask when we are alone again.”
Sinclair finally able to relax hearing those words, he stops the car in front of the gate ” We have arrived, my lady.”
