Chu Kongkong didn't know what method Leng Che had used to get her out, but she had always been convinced that he had the ability and would definitely manage it.
"If you say sorry to me, should I then bow to you and say thank you?" Chu Kongkong hooked her arm around Leng Che's shoulder in a bold manner, raised her eyebrows, and smiled. "Great kindness needs no thanks! Besides, what's the point of being so polite between us? It seems so distant."
Chu Kongkong was quite tall, nearly 1.7 meters, while Leng Che was over 1.8 meters. So when Chu Kongkong hooked Leng Che's shoulder, she had to stretch her hand, giving the impression that she was hanging on Leng Che, which looked a bit comical.
The prison guard said something to Leng Che, glanced at Chu Kongkong, and then turned and left.
Leng Che then put his arm around Chu Kongkong's shoulder in response. The height difference between the two added a touch of ambiguity to this gesture. However, Chu Kongkong didn't care at all because in her heart, Leng Che was just like a buddy.
"Yes, I was wrong. We're like one, so there's no need to say such things." Leng Che's gentle eyes sparkled with a tender light. His big hand squeezed Chu Kongkong's shoulder, and he lowered his head to look at her face. "Did you suffer any grievances in there? You look like you've lost weight on your face."
Chu Kongkong touched her face and laughed. "Well, it's not too bad actually! It's just that the food was a bit poor, the bed board was too hard, the room stank a bit, and there were a few more mosquitoes..."
Leng Che couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth in laughter, but his heart ached for her.
"It's a prison cell. What do you think? A hotel?"
Chu Kongkong snorted. She wanted to roll up her sleeve to show Leng Che the big red bumps on her arm bitten by mosquitoes. But when she lowered her head and saw the clothes she was wearing, she froze.
She tugged at the clothes and looked up at Leng Che. "Why didn't you inform me in advance? I could have changed out of these clothes. It's so unlucky to go out in this. It's like I'm going to be sent back in again."
The prison guard who brought her out just now didn't tell her at all that she was being released. Chu Kongkong cursed the prison guard in her heart for being so irresponsible.
"Take off these clothes and throw them away!" Leng Che frowned, blaming himself for not thinking things through.
Leng Che's car was parked right at the prison gate, a black Audi R8 supercar, stylish yet low - key.
Chu Kongkong strode over to the car, gracefully jumped in, and pressed a button to close the convertible top.
When Leng Che walked back to his car, puzzled, the car window rolled down, and something was thrown out.
Leng Che quickly glanced at it. It was the prison uniform she had just been wearing.
Then, her underwear and pants were also flung out of the car.
Leng Che was stunned. Just as he was about to ask what Chu Kongkong was doing in the car, he heard her shouting from inside. "Where are the clothes you prepared for me?"
Leng Che let out a confused "Ah" sound. It took him a while to realize what Chu Kongkong was up to.
He had just told her to take off and throw away the clothes she was wearing. She must have thought he had prepared clothes for her.
Leng Che coughed in embarrassment. He quickly took off his shirt, held it in one hand, and passed it into the car. "Kongkong, I'm sorry. I forgot to buy clothes for you and bring them here... You can wear mine for now, and I'll buy you some later..."
"Ah? … Oh!" Hearing Leng Che's words, Chu Kongkong was only slightly taken aback and didn't have an over - the - top reaction.
Was she not regarding herself as a woman, or not seeing Leng Che as a man?
Chu Kongkong put on Leng Che's shirt and buttoned it up.
Leng Che was tall, so his shirt was naturally wide and long. When worn by Chu Kongkong, it reached down to her thighs. As long as she sat still, she wouldn't expose herself.
Leng Che, outside the car, blushed a bit embarrassingly. He asked the person in the car, "Are you done wearing it?"
After getting an affirmative answer, he hesitated for a moment before opening the car door and getting in.
"Che, when did you get these abs? Wow - so impressive! Come on, let me touch them!" When Chu Kongkong saw Leng Che getting into the car bare - chested, she couldn't help but stare at his good figure and actually reached out to touch.
Leng Che's eyes flickered, and he shrank his body a bit. "I've had them for a while."
He knew she liked men with pectoral muscles, abs, biceps, and various muscles without looking greasy, so he started working out. But after he got the muscles, she didn't even glance at him. Instead, she fell in love with that man, the one who sent her to prison.
During the countless days and nights she was in prison, he tried every means to get her out. He thought that when he saw her, he must ask if she regretted falling in love with that man.
But now that he finally managed to get her out and she was sitting right beside him, he just looked at her and couldn't bring himself to ask...
Leng Che fell silent, while Chu Kongkong, as if nothing had happened, rummaged through things in the car. Sometimes, her big movements would expose the scenery inside her shirt.
The person driving the car was concentrating on the road ahead, not daring to look aside at all, for fear of seeing something that would make his nose bleed.
But even though he didn't look at the person beside him, he was still sweating all over.
"Hmm? Isn't the air - conditioner on? Why are you sweating so much?" Chu Kongkong turned to look at Leng Che, who was driving. Beads of sweat were streaming down his forehead, neck, chest, and back.
Leng Che's palms were also sweaty, but he pretended to be calm. "I caught a cold yesterday. I took some cold medicine this morning. Sweating it out will make me feel better."
"Then turn off the air - conditioner. Let you sweat more, and you'll get better sooner." Although Chu Kongkong was a bit suspicious, she didn't think too much about it. She reached out to turn off the air - conditioner for him.
When she slightly lowered her head, the loose shirt also drooped. From the rear - view mirror above, a large expanse of her chest was exposed.
Instantly, blood started to flow from his nose —
Damn it!
What happened to focusing and not looking aside?
When the warm liquid flowed out of his nostrils, Leng Che felt like tearing the steering wheel off.
"Does this cold come with a nosebleed? Che, what kind of strange cold symptom is this? I've never seen anything like it. Maybe we should go to the hospital first..." When Chu Kongkong saw the gushing nosebleed, she quickly grabbed a tissue and stuffed it into Leng Che's nose.
The flow was like a heavy period!
The car suddenly screeched to a halt, hitting the side railing and breaking the left - front headlight...
"You were fine just now at the prison gate. How could it get so serious so quickly? I should have driven... Move over, I'll drive. Let's take you to the hospital first! You really don't take care of yourself, a grown man!" Chu Kongkong said, trying to squeeze into the driver's seat to switch with him.
In a state of panic, Leng Che's nosebleed flowed even more profusely, and he almost burst into tears.
Who exactly wasn't taking care of themselves?
