章 173: Ruthless Bargains

The window glided down, unveiling Long Tian's smirking face. "Hey, Zhenyi, want to catch a ride?" he offered.

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhenyi seemed mildly surprised, while Lin Fan maintained his overconfident smile. "Unfortunately, she'll be leaving with me," he taunted. Then, redirecting his attention to Liu Zhenyi, he said, "Let's go, Zhenyi," in a commanding tone.

However, Liu Zhenyi's expression didn't convey compliance, leaving him in awkward silence.

"Are you serious, Long Tian?" she questioned.

"Absolutely, hop on," Long Tian responded, smoothly opening the car door with a button.

"Then, I'll go with you," Liu Zhenyi replied, walking directly to the adjacent door and getting inside, settling beside Long Tian.

Observing this, Long Tian smirked, "Buckle up," he instructed.

Liu Zhenyi nodded and secured her seatbelt.

Long Tian's gaze then shifted to Lin Fan, who wore a gloomy expression. "See you later, pal," he grinned.
