Chapter 175

C175 – Give Me One More Minute!

The unkempt man tailing Guo Yifei was clearly in a bind.

Yet, upon glimpsing the goddess-like Guo Yifei, he couldn’t bear to let this prize slip through his fingers. Steeling himself, he continued his pursuit!

Jiang Hao, in his eyes, was nothing more than a kid, hardly worth noticing.

When Guo Yifei reached Jiang Hao, she embraced him warmly. Then, in a hushed tone, she asked, “Bro, do you see if there’s a creep following me?”

Jiang Hao, initially dazed by Guo Yifei’s embrace, snapped to attention at her question and caught sight of the sleazy man.

The man, realizing he’d been spotted by Jiang Hao, retreated under a tree, feigning relaxation in the shade.

“Don’t worry, sis. I’ve got your back,” Jiang Hao reassured her.

Only then did Guo Yifei release her hold on Jiang Hao.

“Sure thing!”

“Is this your girlfriend? She’s quite the looker!”

The driver was a chatty fellow and couldn’t resist making a comment. Jiang Hao quickly set the record straight. “Driver, she’s my cousin!” He glanced at his cousin to gauge her reaction, but she didn’t seem upset.

“Oh, slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, my apologies!” The driver chuckled in embarrassment, apologizing profusely.

“No worries, my cousin and I are tight!” Guo Yifei chimed in, taking it in stride.

After getting Guo Yifei settled in the car, Jiang Hao was about to close the door when the driver interjected. “Young man, it looks like you’ve got a tail!”

“Get in quick. And remember, always stay alert when you’re out and about, especially with a pretty lady in tow!” The driver’s advice came with a note of concern.

At the driver’s warning, Jiang Hao spun around and sure enough, the sleazy man was lurking not too far behind, watching them with a look of frustration. Catching Jiang Hao’s eye, the man quickly looked away, feigning nonchalance.

Jiang Hao shut the door he had just opened but didn’t get in. “Driver, could you give me just one more minute?”
