Chapter 130

An hour later, B City—

"Mr. Ou, Mr. Ou, we’re here!"

No sooner had the car exited the highway than Ye Ning, sitting inside, saw a gray Bugatti Veyron parked at the tollgate exit. Seeing their car approach, a man immediately got out of the Bugatti Veyron and waved vigorously in their direction.

Upon seeing this, Ou Mucen steered the car toward them.

Upon their arrival, the man hurried over, "Mr. Ou, I apologize for the inconvenience of making you come all this way. Our President Xiao has been awaiting you. Mr. Ou, please, this way."

In the business world, if there is a genuine interest in conducting business, the hospitality is always meticulous.

For instance, now that Ou Mucen had driven here, as a matter of local courtesy, he no longer needed to drive his own car. Instead, he would be chauffeured by the other party, and someone would naturally take good care of his vehicle.

Ye Ning had no experience with the corporate world and was unaware of this custom. But seeing the man in front turn off the ignition and get out of his car, she followed suit and exited the vehicle.

"Mr. Ou, who might this be...?"

"My assistant!"

With those three simple, indifferent words, he blocked any further inquiries the man might have had.

Consequently, Ye Ning, standing behind the man, only noticed he gave her bandaged foot a doubtful glance before going ahead to open the front passenger-side door, "Mr. Ou, please get in the car!"

As the president, he, of course, deserved the best seat.

Seeing this, Ye Ning moved toward the rear seats, ready to open the car door to get in.

However, at that moment, the man walking ahead of her did not head towards the front passenger seat that had been opened for him. Instead, he directly opened the rear car door on his side and got in.

"Haven’t your President Xiao taught you that the front passenger seat is the most dangerous position?"

"..."

The man’s face changed as soon as he heard this, "Mr. Ou, I’m sorry, I..."

"All right, get in the car!"

Without uttering another word, his expression was so cold that it genuinely sent shivers down one’s spine.

Ye Ning also stood there stunned for a moment.

She knew the front passenger seat was unsafe, but when had he become so security conscious? After all, she had seen him sitting in the front passenger seat beside Secretary Gao several times.

Now, she would have to share a car ride with him again.

Ye Ning got into the car with a downturned expression...

After boarding the vehicle, the middle-aged man also got in. Seeing that the golden backer seated in the rear could not even spare him a glance and was just fiddling with his phone, the man felt even more awkward, "Mr. Ou, I’m sorry, I didn’t realize that at all. I was just thinking that it’d be more comfortable for you to sit in the front when President Xiao joins us later." noveldrama

Wow, someone else is coming too?

As Ye Ning sat there and heard this, she instantly felt that the man’s decision to sit in the rear was the right one.

Indeed, she’d rather be with him than sit next to a strange man. Annoying he may be, he was at least familiar.

So the displeasure she had felt just moments ago dissipated...

Once the car started moving towards the city center, Ye Ning, seated inside, noticed the man beside her constantly looking down at his phone, occupied with his business, and she did not disturb him.

However, as time passed, the familiar scent of mint from him filled her senses, and she began to feel somewhat uncomfortable.

"Mr. Ou, you’re not planning to return today, right? Tonight, President Xiao has already made meticulous arrangements for you," the middle-aged man suddenly said, interrupting the silence.
