Tycoon: I Have an Unlimited Modifier novel Chapter 10

Chapter 10: Chapter 10: The Mortified Tan Hua

The food at the lunch banquet was pretty good.

There was no shortage of rich food, and the cigarettes and alcohol were all high-end brands.

They were serving a luxury brand of cigarettes alongside a famous liquor.

For a place like Jia City, this was considered quite impressive.

As for the luxury cigarettes, Skinny Monkey, who had no sense of restraint, immediately tore open a pack.

At 100 yuan a pack, Skinny Monkey had never smoked them before.

Qi Sheng didn’t smoke, so he naturally had no interest in blowing clouds with the other smokers.

’Unless it’s a cigarette after sex. I could give that a try.’

After lunch, the group went their separate ways at the entrance.

Skinny Monkey and the others were taking the bus.

Chen Jia didn’t want to see Qi Sheng and Tan Hua making eyes at each other.

Plus, sitting on the hump in the middle of the back seat was a pain, so she decided to take the bus as well.

With Chen Jia gone, the atmosphere in the car became much more relaxed.

Qi Sheng put on a Jay Chou playlist.

He never used to have money for subscriptions, but now he’d bought annual memberships for both QQ Music and NetEase Cloud Music.

’Being rich is so freeing!’

The drive from Jia City to Fujin would take about two hours.

During the drive, Tan Hua opened up to Qi Sheng for the first time.

"Have you ever thought about moving to Chengdu in the future?"

Qi Sheng, who had been lounging lazily, immediately sat up straight. He realized the answer to this question could determine whether they would end up together.

"I actually really like Chengdu. I visited once, but back then, there wasn’t anyone who made me want to stay. If you want me to go, I can consider it."

Tan Hua rolled her eyes at him but also breathed a sigh of relief.

At least Qi Sheng was genuinely considering moving to Chengdu for her.

This was a hundred times better than the long-distance relationship she had been stressing over.

"I never said I wanted you to go to Chengdu. Whether you go or not is up to you."

With a touch of feigned aloofness, Tan Hua turned her head to gaze out the window.

But the slight smile playing on her lips betrayed her true feelings.

Qi Sheng snuck a glance at the two girls in the back. They were both fast asleep with their headphones on.

He reached out and took Tan Hua’s slender, delicate hand.

"Are you crazy?!"

Tan Hua jumped, her eyes darting to the back seat.

Seeing her two roommates still sleeping soundly, her racing heart finally calmed a bit.

"Ahem, this is my answer. I’m willing to go to Chengdu for you. So, will you be my girlfriend?"

"Hmph. We’ll see how you behave!"

She said that, but she couldn’t hide the smile spreading across her face.

And so, with a silent understanding, Qi Sheng kept his left hand on the steering wheel and his right hand wrapped around Tan Hua’s soft, delicate one.

’I’m just saying, if she were to use those little hands of hers to do some ’handiwork’ for me, I’d be ecstatic.’

’Bah! I have a girlfriend now, what’s the point of doing my own ’handiwork’?’

They didn’t let go of each other’s hands until the car came to a stop.

Tan Hua shot Qi Sheng a playful glare and whispered, "Stop it. It’ll be bad if they see."

After all, they had only just met. Tan Hua would be mortified if her roommates saw them holding hands.

"Alright, then give me a kiss."

"Don’t push it, or I’ll stop talking to you."

Seeing him push his luck, Tan Hua looked slightly indignant.

"Just on the cheek. They’re about to wake up, you know."

Qi Sheng whispered his threat, refusing to let go of her hand.

’A man has to take the initiative, right?’

’After holding hands, you naturally have to plan your next move.’

"Then you’re not allowed to turn your head suddenly. If you do, I’ll really ignore you."

Tan Hua had clearly watched her share of TV dramas and warned him beforehand, not trusting him completely.

"Uh... fine. But be quick about it."

Qi Sheng was a little frustrated that Tan Hua had seen right through his little scheme.

"Hmph. I knew you were up to no good."

Tan Hua shot him a glare, then bashfully leaned in.

Her soft, cherry-like lips gently pressed against his cheek.
