Chapter 34 Inviting the Devil
"Ah, Song Yan, I'm sorry, it's prime time now, right? Many people are off work now, and it's really hard for me to find a taxi." Li Rou came back very late, obviously to give Song Lan enough time to take a lot of photos. She didn't know why Song Lan wanted those photos, but Li Rou was used to following Song Lan's orders, so she didn't bother to ask Song Lan's opinion and agreed directly.
"It's okay, Sister Li, there are always some accidents." Song Yan didn't seem to understand why Li Rou came so late. She didn't lose her temper, but just let it go like before. Go to the past. Before arriving at the hotel, she couldn't let Li Rou notice anything wrong, otherwise once Li Rou ran away, her whole plan would be ruined. "Let's go in?"
Li Rou nodded and opened the door of the taxi, but did not let Song Yan sit first, but got into the taxi and sat down. Song Yan's mouth curled up slightly. First, he took a taxi to send her to the hotel, and now this-Song Yan never bothered to see the difference between Li Rou's treatment of her and Song Lan before. If it was Song Lan, let alone calling a taxi, Li Rou would have booked the most expensive car in the company. Even her attitude would be different from hers.
"Leave it to me." Fang Yanli curled her upper lip, revealing her bloody teeth. "I'll teach her a lesson tonight, and see if she dares to bully others again in the future." Then she walked into the taxi and sat next to Li Rou. Fang Yanli sat next to Li Rou, and Song Yan got into the taxi and sat as far away from Li Rou as possible, with a large distance between the two.
Li Rou, who was sitting in the right corner of the taxi seat, felt as if someone had poured ice water on her. She sat up straight, trembling. Song Yan, who was tapping on his phone, was laughing in his heart, but on the surface he looked at Li Rou with concern. "Sister Li, what's wrong?"
Li Rou frowned at Song Yan, who was sitting calmly in a black short skirt, without even goose bumps on her skin, but she was shivering as if she was sitting in the snow without clothes. She hesitated to ask Song Yan if he was cold, but suddenly another gust of wind blew, and she shivered all over. What happened? The taxi she ordered had locked windows, but there was a cold wind blowing inside the closed taxi? She turned her head to look at the taxi driver and solemnly instructed: "Oh, Mr. Driver, turn off the air conditioner, it's too cold in the taxi."
As soon as Li Rou opened her mouth, Fang Yanli stood up with a sly smile, winked at Song Yan, and then merged with the driver. The driver was stunned for a moment, then returned to normal. The driver looked back and smiled, "But ma'am, the air conditioner is turned off."
Li Rou naturally didn't believe it. She was so cold, the air conditioner couldn't be turned off. She turned over in her seat and looked at the dashboard. She was about to curse, but when her eyes fell on the air conditioner, her mouth dropped. It was indeed turned off! Then why did she feel so cold?
She looked at Song Yan who was resting on the seat and quickly woke him up. Song Yan frowned. She didn't sleep last night, and now this woman disturbed her rest. She would definitely ask Fang Yanli to play skipping rope with Li Rou's intestines later. However, now - she could only suppress the anger in her heart. "What's wrong with Sister Li?"
Li Rou didn't feel anything was wrong and immediately asked, "Well, Song Yan, don't you think it's too cold here?"
Song Yan frowned, her brows slightly furrowed, as if she didn't quite understand what Li Rou was talking about. "No, Sister Li, the temperature should be okay, what's wrong? Is it cold? This is not right, it's midsummer now, how can it be cold in a closed car."
"Hmm? Really... Don't you feel cold? But I--" Li Rou didn't finish her words. It wasn't that she didn't want to, but her teeth began to chatter. How could this happen? Why was she the only one who felt cold? Song Yan was obviously fine. In comparison, Li Rou was dressed much warmer. The same was true for the driver sitting in front. He was also wearing a thin cotton shirt and thick pants that had become thin from being washed too many times, but neither of them was shivering like her.
Seeing her like this, Song Yan suddenly curled up his lips and tried to hold back his smile. At this moment, the driver sitting in front suddenly said, "Madam, are you really cold or are you pulling our legs?" He even chuckled as if joking.
Li Rou's face darkened and she snorted contemptuously. "Who do you think you are? Why should I pull your leg?"
The driver turned pale and stammered, "Ah no... Ma'am, I don't mean anything bad by saying this, I just--"
"What did you just say?"
"I... I just thought you were joking. Because neither I nor the lady next to you felt cold." The driver paused, then added hesitantly: "If you were the only one feeling cold, I'm afraid--" Before he could finish his words, Li Rou narrowed her eyes.
"What? What did you say?"
"Ma'am, how about this? I was just talking nonsense."
"Spit it out."
The driver sighed heavily and whispered in a frightening voice: "We have a saying in our village, 'Those with ill intentions attract ghosts.'" So, maybe--"
Li Rou was shocked. She quickly looked at Song Yan, who was puzzled, and sneered, as if she had heard a bad joke. "What nonsense! What ulterior motive? My heart is as clear as the first drop of dew in spring!"
