Just as she started feeling anxious, a Maserati steadily halted in front of her . A handsome yet effeminate 'man' appeared once the vehicle's window was rolled down .
Yun Shishi's brows slightly kneaded when she recognized him!
No, it was a 'her' .
Jun Mo lived in the house next to theirs .
Seeing that the vehicle had intentionally stopped in front of her, Yun Shishi greeted the woman inside in a friendly manner, “Hello!”
Jun Mo removed her glasses and scanned her with a pair of beautiful eyes . Her lips slightly formed a curve .
“Get in . ”
Yun Shishi was a little dazed at her two-word invitation .
“Huh? What do you mean?”
“It's hard to get a cab here . ” Her voice was deep with a distinct rawness and sexless quality to it . If one were not to listen carefully, they might be unable to tell whether it belonged to a male or a female .
Although it was a little abrupt, time was of the essence, so disregarding how unreasonable it was, she immediately nodded . “… Thanks!”
She opened the rear door and got in the back seat . Jun Mo skillfully maneuvered the car and, stepping on its accelerator, it swiftly left the grounds of Xiangti Walk .
Yun Shishi placed the bag to her side and curiously roamed her eyes over the car's interior . Her eyes laid on the handsome face in the rearview mirror .
She used 'handsome' to describe her because, regardless of her aura or attire, Jun Mo had an androgynous feel to her; she had a man's poise and grace but also a woman's refinement and delicacy .
Her handsomeness was undefined by gender . Her phoenix eyes in particular were deep-set and attractive . For a moment, even she was mesmerized .
Jun Mo raised her eyes and met her scrutinizing gaze through the rearview mirror .
Yun Shishi awkwardly retracted her gaze .
It was damp and freezing in the vehicle .
The weather at dawn was a little chilly after an overnight shower .
The air inside the car was slightly cooling, and on top of that, she was only wearing flimsy garments, so it could not be helped that she felt cold .
The singer flashed a glance at her troubled face, and her thin lips pried apart, “Cold?”
“Mm! A little . ”
The singer returned her gaze to the front and, without saying another word, turned on the heater .
A while later, the entire vehicle was filled with warmth .
Yun Shishi was moved by her thoughtfulness and immediately expressed her gratitude . The corner of Jun Mo's lips flipped upward, but she did not say anything . She simply took out a stick from her cigarette pack and lit it with practiced ease .
Her lighter was a limited commemorative edition of Zippo's Keeper of the Flame . It was rare to see it on the market .
The fragrance of her cigarette diffused within the vehicle .
It was neither strong nor pungent . On the contrary, it was quite pleasant-smelling and, at the very least, it was not distasteful .
The journey to the headquarters was spent in silence .
The vehicle traveled at high speed, and the scenery outside constantly flashed by .
“You're called Yun Shishi, right?”
“Yes . ” She was surprised . “How did you know my name?”
“I saw you at the gala . ” Jun Mo went silent for a moment, as if she were thinking of how to word her thought, and, ultimately, decided with two simple words . “Very beautiful . ”
Yun Shishi blushed and then grinned . “Thank you . ”
This was a little unexpected .
Jun Mo seemed to be proud and unapproachable, but she was, in fact, not as reserved as she appeared to be – she was surprisingly friendly .
She said, “It's a good opportunity to be signed on to Huanyu . Do treasure it . ”
“Yes, I will!”
The vehicle drove into Huanyu Tower in no time .
“Dropping you off here . I'll go park the car . ” She left her with these words as she headed for the parking garage .
She was overwhelmed by her kindness .
It felt as if she were in a dream; everything seemed surreal .
After all, growing up, other than Xiao Xue, very few women had treated her this nicely .
