Clenching his fists tightly, he took a deep breath and drove the car to the side of the country bumpkin. He rolled down the window and said coldly with a straight face, “Get in the car. I’ll give you a ride.” Ming Yue looked at him in confusion. Liu Jingxing looked like he was afraid that she would misunderstand and explained with a dark expression, “I don’t care how you go back. I’m only afraid that Grandma will nag me if she finds out.”

Ming Yue came back to her senses. No wonder. She stood on the spot and waved her hands at him. “It’s okay. I can go back by myself. I won’t tell the Old Madam. Don’t worry.”

Liu Jingxing’s expression darkened. “What are you talking about? I told you to get in the car. Hurry up.”

Ming Yue looked at his impatient expression and replied weakly, “Oh.” She opened the back door and got in. She sat behind the driver’s seat and stiffly placed her hands on her knees as she looked out of the window. The temperature in the car was even lower than outside. She sighed silently. Although she did not need to spend money to get a ride now, she might as well have taken a taxi.

It only cost a little money to take a taxi. She did not even dare to breathe heavily in his car, afraid that she would make him unhappy again.

The car did not start for a long time. Puzzled, she leaned forward and looked at the driver’s seat. Liu Jingxing said, “Didn’t anyone tell you that you can’t sit in the back seat in someone else’s car? Am I your driver?”

Ming Yue finally realized what was going on. She quickly opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat. She didn’t have many friends, and she had only sat in other people’s cars a few times. Usually, she took the bus when she went out, so she didn’t know much about the rules about sitting in other people’s cars.

After graduating from university, instead of finding a job related to her major, she accidentally became a food blogger with a million fans. Her daily work was to cook, shoot videos, edit the videos, dubbing, and putting subtitles. Occasionally, she would receive one or two product advertisements. She could earn about 20,000 yuan a month. This amount of money was enough for her and her grandmother to maintain their daily lives.

She was a little slow to warm up. She was not someone who would take the initiative to socialize, so she did not have many friends. However, if one interacted with her for a long time, they would realize that she can actually be quite wild. Her personality was not introverted either. This year, her grandmother was diagnosed with a heart disease. Grandmother had only been hospitalized for less than half a month, and Ming Yue had already spent all the money she had saved as a blogger. Her father had already had his own family, so he could only take out 100,000 yuan to help. This 100,000 yuan was only a drop in the bucket for her grandmother’s subsequent treatment.

Ming Yue had no choice but to accept a few advertisements in a row. However, it was still far from enough for the surgery.

She pulled on her seat belt and fastened it tightly.

Liu Jingxing frowned when he saw this. Didn’t this country bumpkin know that she was already pregnant? Was she trying to suffocate the baby with such force? However, Liu Jingxing quickly banished the thoughts from his mind. This woman had finally reached her goal after much difficulty. All of this was because of the baby in her stomach. She was the daughter that a butler had left to be raised in the countryside, but now, she had become the young madam of the Liu family. Now, her status in his grandma’s heart was even vaguely higher than his, her biological grandson.

With a cold face, he drove silently towards Fairview East. The Fairview East was the house he had bought in his high school years with the New Year’s money1 he had saved up. It had three bedrooms and a living room. It was a tall building and had elevators on the seventh floor. After entering university, he bought a house next to the university, and this place was left empty.

“Zone A, Block 5, Unit 3, Room 701. Go over by yourself.”

Ming Yue nodded and did not object to his request. She pushed the door open and prepared to get out of the car. Anyone who saw the way they interacted would not think that they were a newly married couple.

“Contact my assistant if you need anything. Don’t bother people with trivial matters. Also, don’t contact Grandma no matter what.” Liu Jingxing said coldly before starting the car and stepping on the accelerator.

Ming Yue watched as the other party’s car disappeared at the end of the road. She muttered in her heart that Liu Jingxing did not give her his assistant’s contact information. She did not have the old madam’s number either. He actually did not have to worry. She could not contact anyone.

She was not a fool. She could clearly see the disgust on the Eldest Young Master’s face and knew why he hated her so much. However, she could only suffer in silence. She was only the daughter of an inconspicuous butler and was lucky enough to rely on this marriage to save her grandmother from dying. Therefore, she could not explain herself no matter what.
