Chapter 230: 0230 The Strongest Support Chapter 230: 0230 The Strongest Support Evening after work.

To prevent his woman from being abducted by another woman again, Fu Qiyuan had arrived early in his car at the base of Qianran International.

Su Ran had just left the company when she saw that familiar car by the roadside.

“Why did you come?”

After glancing at her, Fu Qiyuan bent over to open the passenger door for her, saying indifferently,

“Picking you up from work!”

Su Ran was momentarily stunned. He was picking her up this early from work?

As she got into the car and closed the door, before she could speak, the familiar scent of the man filled her nostrils.

Her eyelashes fluttered slightly as she looked up, and his handsome face was mere inches away.

She involuntarily tensed up, especially as the man drew closer, his uniquely cold and assertive presence overwhelming her.

It wasn’t a guardedness, nor was it wariness, but the most natural reaction from her body, a habit called “inertia.”

Fu Qiyuan naturally noticed her subconscious action of holding her breath, his brows imperceptibly quivered.

His dark gaze swept over her delicate, coldly elegant face. A “click” sound signaled the fastening of the seatbelt, yet Su Ran’s body still shivered with the abrupt noise.

Before she could breathe a sigh of relief, under her dazed gaze, the man drew closer to her.

Their breaths mingled, so close they sprayed each other’s faces, a warm and familiar sensation.

Su Ran clasped her hands tight, watching as the man slowly reached out, his long fingers touching the top of her head.

She blinked, and in the blink of an eye, a small piece of paper appeared in the man’s hand.

She pressed her lips together, a flash of annoyance sparking in her eyes–she had actually thought…

“Still so sensitive.”

The man’s deep and pleasant voice reached her ears, and as Su Ran looked up, she met his deep, mysterious eyes.

Her body subconsciously shrank back as she denied,

“No.”

“Ha!”

Fu Qiyuan let out a light chuckle, his cool fingertips grazing her pale cheek, causing the hairs on her skin to stand on end.

“Lying.”

A flicker of embarrassment swept quickly across Su Ran’s eyes, yet she said nothing.

“Not used to my touch?”

Upon hearing this,

Su Ran paused for a moment, then shook her head.

“No.”

“That’s good, you’ll have to get used to it after all,” he said, then straightened up and drove the car forward.

The rest of the journey was quiet, an unusual silence between the two.

Su Ran was not accustomed to this eerie atmosphere and couldn’t help but speak.

“Isn’t the company busy? Why did you come to pick me up so early?”

“It’s alright.”

Perhaps feeling that two words were too curt, he added softly,

“Not too busy.”

If Su Ran hadn’t noticed something was off by now, all her years would have been for nothing.

“What’s wrong? Are you still upset about that internet issue?”

Fu Qiyuan kept his eyes on the road as a soft “Hmm!” escaped from his throat.

Su Ran smiled and said soothingly,

“It’s fine, I’ll get back at them. They won’t be able to jump around for long.”

Fu Qiyuan glanced at her before refocusing on the road ahead.

“Take good care of yourself, don’t put yourself in danger. Look back when you have a moment, I’m always standing behind you.”

Su Ran’s eyes trembled lightly. The man’s features were strikingly handsome, his deep brows and thick lashes were bathed in a soft glow from the faint light, mysterious and regal, captivating her gaze.

She curved her lips slightly, a smile blossoming.

“Hmm, you are indeed my strongest support.”
