Chapter 195: Chapter 192: Ignorance Kills!
Lu Xiao’s pupils contracted in an instant.
The next second, he grabbed her wrist.
Wen Xian leaned against his chest, like a wild little cat, looking up at him, “What’s the matter Captain Lu, weren’t you waiting to time me?”
As these words fell, Lu Xiao’s expression softened, and Wen Xian couldn’t see what his expression was anymore.
He just held her hand tighter, not letting her move.
Wen Xian was furious, she just wanted to find a hole to crawl into, and finally she just buried into his neck and bit him.
He dodged, and she heard him laughing lightly, unable to hold back anymore. That voice was somewhat hoarse and extraordinarily pleasant on such a night.
When he spoke again, his husky voice was tinged with laughter: “Be good, no more fussing, listen to me.”
She wouldn’t let go, but Lu Xiao pried her fingers off his belt one by one.
Wen Xian almost cried in frustration.
When she withdrew her hand, her little fist smashed onto his shoulder, huffing indignantly, “Lu Xiao, I misjudged you, what kind of upright and principled captain are you, you’re totally rotten!”
Lu Xiao slightly curved the corners of his lips, and when he turned his head to look at her again, his large hand was on her back, as if smoothing down a little wild cat’s fur, he casually said:
“You still have injuries, you shouldn’t be exerting yourself.”
As his large palm suddenly slid down to the injured area around her waist, she shivered all over, the pain making her cry out involuntarily.
Hearing her cry of pain, Lu Xiao slightly lifted to glimpse the purplish bruise with traces of blood on her snow-white waist, his gaze darkened.
On speaking again, his voice was colder, “From now on, you are going to sleep, and don’t move anymore. Tomorrow, don’t go back to the crew; come with me.”
Wen Xian truly felt the pain, but it seemed she still felt somewhat unwilling.
In a wistful tone, she asked, “Really, I can’t?”
Lu Xiao countered, “Are you really underestimating my capabilities?”
At this, Wen Xian weakly quieted down.
She was wrong. Captain Lu’s strength was not just not to be underestimated, it was frankly terrifying.
Outside, the blizzard was intensifying, seemingly making the car sway lightly.
The car windows were being pelted, and the temperature inside the car was dropping, with the cold seeping in through the gaps of the windows bit by bit.
Wen Xian suddenly discovered the car could start, just not move.
She immediately reached for the car’s heater, delightedly said, “The heater still works.”
However, just as she turned it on, Lu Xiao raised his hand and turned it off.
Confused, the next second, she heard Lu Xiao, with a slight frown and in a serious tone, “Although the car can still start, the heater mustn’t be used. Incomplete combustion of gasoline in the engine can produce a high concentration of carbon monoxide.”
As he looked at her again, his face grew somber, “How long have you been driving that you don’t know such important information?”
Lu Xiao suddenly seemed amazed that she had managed to get so far.
Wen Xian’s face stiffened, momentarily at a loss for words.
She, she wouldn’t tell him that although she had driven for years, her driver’s license had been bought through someone else.
Moreover, she was usually too busy, spent little time in the car, and truly hadn’t paid attention to these details.
Seeing her , Lu Xiao’s expression grew even more stern, and he said—
