192: Chapter 192 Watch Your Mouth!
It was as if Liu Ruyan's screams and her pounding had nothing to do with him.
As if she were merely an irrelevant person who had disturbed him, not even worth mentioning.
"Need something?"
Jiang Feng's tone was very flat, so cold it lacked any warmth or emotional fluctuation.
Those two simple words were like a cold, sharp knife, stabbing ruthlessly into Liu Ruyan's heart.
Liu Ruyan felt a sharp pain in her chest, stung by his icy gaze and frigid tone.
An inexplicable panic surged in her heart, making her unable to help but shiver.
But more than that, there was resentment, anger, and a hint of jealousy.
"This car... this car is yours?!"
She stared at Jiang Feng, her voice still shrill, carrying a hint of incredulous interrogation, her tone filled with resentment.
"Where did you get the money to buy this kind of car?! Did you do something illegal?! Is it stolen or robbed?! Jiang Feng, I'm telling you, don't think you can lie to me! A poor wretch like you could never afford this car in a lifetime; you must have rented it! You definitely rented it!"
She was unwilling to believe it, unwilling to admit it.
That the poor boy she once trampled underfoot had now become even more impressive than her.
She was unwilling to admit how blind she had been back then, unwilling to admit what she had missed out on.
Before she could finish her sentence, Li Wei took a quick step forward and blocked the car window.
His face was cold, and his eyes were full of warning and anger.
His tone also carried an unquestionable authority as he barked sternly at Liu Ruyan.
"Miss, please watch your words! Keep your mouth clean!"
"Mr. Jiang is our company's most distinguished client. This maybach was purchased by Mr. Jiang in full. All procedures are legal and compliant; there are no issues whatsoever. It is absolutely not rented, let alone stolen or robbed!"
He paused, his gaze sweeping coldly over Liu Ruyan, the warning in his eyes intensifying.
His tone became even more severe: "I am warning you for the last time. If you dare to speak disrespectfully or maliciously slander Mr. Jiang again, I will call the police immediately and hold you legally accountable. When that time comes, just you wait and see if you regret it!"
Li Wei's words were clear and stern, carrying an unquestionable authority.
Instantly, Liu Ruyan was choked up and speechless.
The expression on her face shifted between red, white, blue, and purple; it was hideous, looking like a color palette.
She looked up, gazing at Jiang Feng in the car once more, scrutinizing him carefully.
He was still wearing that simple white shirt, with no luxury watch, no designer clothes, and no luxury items on him.
But sitting in that luxury car, his temperament had completely changed.
Composed, calm, steady, and confident—even carrying a hint of high-and-mighty aloofness and indifference.
That kind of temperament couldn't be faked, nor was it something one could possess just by renting a car.
It was a confidence and assurance that radiated from his very bones, a steadiness that only came after weathering great storms, and the composure that only the wealthy could possess.
For the first time, a sliver of regret rose in Liu Ruyan's heart—a deep, profound regret.
That regret surged up like a tide, drowning her resentment and anger, leaving her feeling cold all over.
Her voice suddenly softened, and her eyes began to redden again.
She put on a pitiful look once more, her tone carrying a hint of a sob.
She was trying to use this act of weakness to gain Jiang Feng's sympathy and win back a chance.
"Jiang Feng... I... I was too agitated just now. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to slander you. Please don't be angry, okay?"
"Can we... can we have a proper talk? After all, we used to be... used to be boyfriend and girlfriend. You can't treat me like this... You can't just watch me be so miserable and ignore me..."
"..."
