Chapter 16 - You're...average!
Han Zihao who was looking at his tablet glanced at her and noticed her lost expressions.
For some reason, he can't help but notice her. From the day he met her, she stood against his expectations.
He had an image made in his mind that he had made after Feng Sheng did a background check on her. He had expected her to be timid and introverted just like it was written in her information.
But she was not timid at all. She not only challenged her parents and that annoying sister but also became successful in getting hefty compensation from her parents.
The last time he had lied about bringing the CCTV footage. He had Feng Sheng check the cameras on the next day of the accident, but he found out that there are no CCTVs on that road.
It was just a bluff that he had made, hoping the Gu's to get into the trap. If Xu Nuan had not played along and persuaded them to agree to her demands, then the Gu's won't be trapped easily.
He doesn't know why he did that, but he found himself standing on the girl's side.
' Maybe he is feeling bad for the girl, that was the only explanation he can give for his strange attitude towards her.'
He was thinking about all his strange actions without realizing that he was staring at her.
Xu Nuan frowned sensing someone's gaze and turned around and was surprised seeing Han Zihao's deep gaze on her.
She raised her brows and said, " Mr. Han?"
Han Zihao jerked from his thoughts and was caught off guard noticing Xu Nuan looking into his eyes.
However, he suppressed his expressions and said, " Yes?"
" Do you like me that much? Am I that pretty?" Her lips curled up in a smirk as she stared into his deep eyes.
"-_-"
Feng Sheng who was driving the car was shocked hearing her daring words and almost lost his control.
He held onto the steering wheel tightly and tried to focus on the road while sweating nervously.
' How can this girl be so daring?'
Han Zihao was shocked when she asked this question. His brows knitted as he said, "No!"
"-_-"
Xu Nuan who was teasing him was confused hearing his response. No? For what?
Seeing her bewilderment he said," You're not pretty." He paused before continuing and checked her out from head to toe "You're.... average." His tone was indifferent and unwavering.
"-_-"
Xu Nuan was speechless when she heard this. In her past life, she had the perfect hourglass shaped figure and everyone dies to have a figure like her. Her fans used to call her a living fairy or angel.
However, Xu Nuan is different from her. Her height is normal, not too tall or short. Similarly, her body type is not very desirable but she was skinny and had enough volume where it should be.
Moreover, she has beautiful and unique facial features which make her look pretty and attractive.
She has to agree that she might not be the most beautiful girl...but calling her average is worse than calling her ugly.
She never likes to be average. The average word is so ambitious that it doesn't make clear if the other party is complimenting them or insulting them.
" Hah! Average? And me?" She scoffed as she glared at him with her large eyes.
She was just teasing him but does he have to respond in this way?
He nodded and unknowingly his lips curled up in a low smile.
Xu Nuan was startled seeing him smile. He is handsome, no doubt. But he looks extremely charming and attractive with a smile on his face.
She pursed her lips and thought, ' Jiang Yue, stop it. You have a boyfriend. You can't be swayed by other men.'
She had her eyes closed as she repeated those words in her mind. Han Zihao was speechless seeing the way she was acting.
Just as he was about to say something, Feng Sheng stopped the car and said.
" Ms. Gu, we have arrived."
Xu Nuan opened her eyes and found Han Zihao's focus back to his tablet. He glanced at the large building outside and averted his gaze without saying anything.
Xu Nuan ignored Han Zihao and was about to get out of the car after thanking Feng Sheng when she heard a cold voice.
" On which floor your unit is?" Han Zihao while casually looking at her.
She squinted her eyes and asked, " Why? You want to come to my house?" She asked in a playful tone.
He didn't say anything and pursed his lips.
She didn't tease him further and said, " It's on the 8th flood. Ah, I almost forgot. Mr. Han, you're very handsome, but it won't do any harm to smile."
" You might be handsome but no girl will find it attractive if you continue to attack them with your cruel words." She pursed her lips thinking how he called her 'average'.
" And that was my goodbye tip for you. It was a nice meeting, you Mr. Han. Goodbye." After saying this, she got out of the car and entered the building after showing her a residential card to the guard which Gu Zhang has sent her after doing all the formalities.
He hated doing all this work for her but her constant threats forced him to fulfill her demands.
….
After she left, Han Zihao looked into the direction where she left.
Feng Sheng pursed his lips and tried his luck out, " Mr. Han, what do you think about Ms. Gu?"
He could see that he is showing interest in her. Otherwise, he will not help her hospital or yield to her demands.
He is Han Zihao for god's sake. No one can use him unless he wants to be used.
Han Zihao furrowed his brows hearing his words. He stared at him for a while and turned his gaze to the building, " She is.. Pitiful."
He thought that whatever he is feeling towards Xu Nuan is just pity. She is a girl who got into an accident with his car, her parents denied acknowledging her. What can it be if not pity?
