Chapter 265 - 248: Your Tears Drenched My World
It’s rush hour now and almost every taxi has passengers. After standing for a while, she takes out her phone, ready to use the ride-hailing app to book a ride.
Before she could input her destination, a black Range Rover stops in front of her. Tang Tianyou rolls down the window and says, "Get in. I was just heading out for an errand, I can give you a lift."
Gu Qili is really in a rush and opens the car door without much thought.
Only after getting in the car does she remember that she needs to go to Eastern City and doesn’t know if it’s on his way.
"Where to?"
"Eastern City, and you? If it’s out of your way, I can take a cab myself so as not to delay your work."
Tang Tianyou turns the steering wheel and merges onto the main road, reminding her to buckle up, "It just so happens I’m heading to Eastern City too, it’s on the way."
In Eastern City, there’s a glass factory responsible for making customized wine glasses for the French Restaurant. The goods are ready now, and he urgently needs to check them to avoid delaying the opening.
But Eastern City is some distance away from the city center, within the suburban area of Aus City. He has no business running errands to a suburb.
Gu Qili glances at him suspiciously to confirm if he is lying. Yet, Tang Tianyou’s expression is calm and upright, not seeming like he is blatantly lying.
Noticing her skeptical gaze, he explains while driving, "Eastern City is an industrial area, most of the chips for the Aus City casino are produced there."
That settles it. Gu Qili smiles at him, realizing she was overthinking it.
