"Stop fooling around, come down."

Song Guanchao indeed reacted; after all, any normal man would, being rubbed against like this by a beautiful woman.

Wu Yun rubbed a bit more, then got off him.

Song Guanchao could sense just how intense her longing for him was.

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

He and Wu Yun were destined to be apart, even if she didn't ask for a title.

But even without a title, Song Guanchao would find it difficult to have time to accompany her.

His current goal was to leave Lingjiang and go to the Provincial City.

And he's currently planning actions for this goal.

Once he leaves Lingjiang, the opportunities for them to meet would only decrease.

He could already imagine her disappointed look when she found out he was taking a job in the Provincial City.

"What are you thinking about?"

Seeing him distracted, Wu Yun asked curiously.

"Thinking about you."

"Hmph, I don't believe it."

That sounded like he was just trying to make her happy, but it did make her feel good.

"By the way," Wu Yun said, "I've got some good news for you."

"What good news?"

"My dad is going to be in the Standing Committee!"

"Oh? That's impressive."

He hadn't heard about this before.

They chatted casually, Song Guanchao didn't tell her he met her to buy a car.

To prevent her from feeling that every time he was looking for her, there was a purposeful motive, which could affect her mood.

After eating, Wu Yun said, "Shall we take a stroll by the river?"

"Don't you need to work this afternoon?"

"It's the weekend, and my job isn't as busy as yours."

"Alright, let's go by the river."

Coming out of the restaurant, Wu Yun headed towards the parking lot, Song Guanchao stopped her, "My car is totaled, let's take a taxi."

"Totaled?"

Wu Yun didn't know about his accident yet, "How did it get totaled? Is the car quality bad?"

"The quality is great, it was a car accident."

"A car accident…"

Wu Yun stared at him, suddenly her eyes turned red.

This left Song Guanchao a bit bewildered, awkwardly holding her small hand, "What's wrong? Why are you crying?"

Wu Yun wiped the corner of her eyes, "Tell me the truth, did you offend someone?"

"Huh?" Song Guanchao asked bewilderedly, "Who could I have offended?"

"If you didn't offend anyone, why would you have a car accident?"

In the Provincial City.

It's the place with the best security in Nanjiang Province.

And Song Guanchao was an experienced driver, how could he easily get into a car accident?

Especially one that would total the car.

The probability is too low.

Adding that the nature of Song Guanchao's job is sensitive, her first thought was that he offended someone!

And was retaliated against!

She guessed well.

But Song Guanchao certainly wouldn't admit it, he used a wry smile to wipe away her tears, "What are you thinking? It's just an ordinary accident, if someone was really targeting me, would I still be standing here talking to you?"

"Really?"

"Really."

Song Guanchao said, "By the way, does your friend who sells cars still do so? If they do, I'll go get another one when I have time."

"I'll take you."

"Now?"

"Yeah."

"Alright, after we get the car, I'll take you for a ride, and treat you to dinner… Oh, can't do tonight, Mayor Liang invited me to dinner."

Song Guanchao fibbed to brush past this.

Soon, they arrived at a used car dealership.

Song Guanchao had a good memory; he remembered that this person was Wu Yun's neighbor, named Yu Xiaoshuang.

"Buying a car again?"

Yu Xiaoshuang asked surprised, "What about the last one?"

Wu Yun spoke for him, "It was totaled."

"Huh? How did you manage to total that car? How did you drive?"

"Car accident."

"Wow, impressive! What did I say, the car I recommended was good, right? You see, the car is totaled but you're fine."

"Come, take a look at what kind you want this time."

"By the way, what's your budget?"

Budget…

Song Guanchao suddenly thought of the two hundred million yuan he deducted from the Jiang Family.

He's just being low-key; otherwise he could totally live a wealthy life.

However, his personal material desires weren't high.

The difference between a car that costs tens of thousands and one that costs millions to him is indifferent, as long as it runs.

Neither the difference of a rented apartment costing a few hundred, or a mansion costing tens of millions matters; after all, at night it's the same bed he sleeps on.

"One hundred and fifty thousand, I guess." Song Guanchao said.

Half an hour later, Song Guanchao paid the money.

"Come by at four this afternoon; we can have your license plate ready by then."

"Okay, thanks."

Song Guanchao expressed his gratitude and was about to leave when Wu Yun suddenly said, "Brother Shuang, we need a car now, could you lend us yours?"

"Take it."

Yu Xiaoshuang tossed the car keys without asking where they were going or what they were doing.

Wu Yun took the keys, pressed a button, and the lights of a nearby Mercedes flashed.

In the car, Song Guanchao touched the leather steering wheel, looked at the nightclub-style refined interior, and said, "It's really impressive."

Wu Yun asked, "Do you like it?"

"Who wouldn't?"

"If you do, I'll give it to you."

If someone else said this, he'd think it was a joke.

But when Wu Yun said it, she meant it.

This girl has plenty of her own money, maybe not enough to buy it outright, but definitely enough to afford it with a loan.

"I can't accept that."

Song Guanchao shook his head, "With me being a district chief, driving a luxury car worth a million is like asking for someone to report me."

"Let's go, go for a stroll by the river."

He stepped on the gas pedal, and the powerful engine surged, pushing them onto the road.

The car sped onto the Lake Ring Road, driving further and further, more and more secluded.

Gradually, the car arrived under a bridge arch.

This place was familiar to Song Guanchao.

When they bought the first car, they came here.

It had been raining then; they were soaking wet sitting under the bridge arch, almost reaching a moment of intimacy.

Wu Yun clearly remembered that scene too, looking at him with shy eyes.

Their gazes met, and Song Guanchao quickly averted his, opened the car door, and said, "Let's go for a walk."

They strolled by the riverbank, embraced by the slightly stifling breeze.

Song Guanchao wanted to say something, but his mind was stuck, unable to find a topic.

"The sun is strong." Wu Yun suddenly said.

"It is, we should head back."

Back at the bridge arch, Song Guanchao was about to head to the car when Wu Yun suddenly held him.

Then she pointed to the bridge pillar, "I want to sit over there."

Song Guanchao had a guess as to what she wanted to do.

He wanted to refuse, but facing her anxious and expectant eyes, he found himself unable to say no.

They walked to the bridge pillar; this area was empty, not even a fishing man around - an ideal spot for a secret affair.

Even doing something private here, no one would notice.

Wu Yun squatted down and sat on the ground.

Song Guanchao sat next to her, the proximity revealed the strands of her hair dampened by sweat on her neck, each one distinct.

Wu Yun happened to turn, catching his gaze.

Their eyes met; Song Guanchao intended to look away, but Wu Yun suddenly leaned over, pressing her fragrant lips against his.
