24: More than 70 million! Just give it away like that?

Lei Qian immediately coughed and explained, "No, I'm not following you. I just happened to be passing by, saw you here, and decided to get out and say hello."

Bai Wanning snorted, but her eyes flickered. "Then you came to find me, did you bring the money?"

Thinking of that crucial "lifesaving money," her eyes lit up, and her voice unconsciously became a bit more urgent.

Lei Qian's heart immediately sank to the bottom.

That glint in her eyes pierced his heart like a needle.

He sighed, his voice low and deep, "Do you know that what you did at your last company, hitting that woman on the head, almost became a cover story for a magazine?"

"Is that so?" Bai Wanning narrowed her eyes. Hah, she gave Lu Gui a chance, but this stinky dog, no matter how exquisite the food in front of him, would only eat shit.

He could have chosen to live peacefully for a few days, but he chose death instead!

She would definitely get her revenge.

"Indeed."

Bai Wanning frowned even more deeply, then said to Lei Qian, "You don't need to worry, I'll handle it."

"No need. I've already taken care of it for you. Not only did I stop the report, but I also made sure Lu Gui won't bother you again." A hint of shyness appeared on Lei Qian's face.

But the next second, he looked at Bai Wanning with some concern and said, "However, I'm worried this matter won't end here. Chen Xiaoya is still making a fuss, wanting to send you to prison. Her father happens to be my client, which is why I managed to suppress him and make him temporarily give up on that idea. But you still need to be careful; they might try to harm you when I'm not paying attention."

"Thank you." Although she could have handled this matter herself, since Lei Qian had intervened, Bai Wanning still politely expressed her gratitude.

"No need." Hearing Bai Wanning's thanks, Lei Qian subconsciously straightened his back.

Bai Wanning rolled her eyes; she was merely being polite.

"Then did you bring the money?" she asked next.

"Miss Bai, you're really heartless. Can't we talk about something other than money for once?"

Bai Wanning blinked, tilted her head, and said, "If it weren't for the money, do you think I'd be talking to you?"

Lei Qian: "..."

Bai Wanning's words made Lei Qian feel a bit awkward and displeased.

He sighed, pushed up the glasses on his nose, and was about to speak when Bai Wanning had already glanced at the custom car and suddenly asked, "This car looks good, can I have it?"

It even had bulletproof glass and sturdy tires. When the Apocalypse arrived, this kind of car would definitely be very useful.

"You want the car?" Lei Qian looked back.

He also thought the car was good, but it was very heavy and not really suitable for a woman to drive.

He looked at Bai Wanning and said, "You won't use many of this car's features. How about I buy you another car that you can drive?"

Actually, Lei Qian wasn't unwilling to part with the car; it just wasn't very suitable for her.

It was equipped not only with turbocharging and a cannon system, but also bulletproof glass, and it could drive through standing water and rugged mountain roads. Ultimately, it was more like a war vehicle, and naturally not something a woman could easily handle.

After hearing this, Bai Wanning pouted. Buy her another one? Did she care for such delicate and fragile toys?

She shook her head, refusing adamantly, "No, I want this car. If you can't give it to me, then don't even think about giving me anything. Actually, you'd best not appear in front of me again. You clearly have no intention of compensating me, yet you keep saying you will. That only makes people dislike you more."

She didn't care in the slightest if these words would offend Lei Qian.

The Apocalypse was almost here; who still cared about whose feelings?

Even if she really angered Lei Qian, she didn't care.

Who cared about a flimsy car that would be totaled with a slight bump? Only a sturdy car like this could charge through the Apocalypse, ramming zombies and clearing obstacles for her, so she could safely leave when collecting resources.

If Lei Qian didn't give it to her, she would naturally have to go abroad to buy a few and find a place to modify them herself.

As soon as the words left her mouth, Lei Qian choked.

His gaze fell on the electronic ring on Bai Wanning's hand, and his heart ached.

This woman was truly heartless. She took advantage of him, yet she stubbornly refused to accept his kindness.

Bai Wanning followed his gaze and looked down, immediately and subconsciously retracting her hand.

She wasn't a rogue, but the technology of this ring was not yet widespread in this country at the time, yet its functions were very advanced, including not only night vision but also GPS tracking, a mini flashlight, and weather monitoring.

This thing was a real goodie; she truly couldn't bear to return it.

Lei Qian looked at her, resembling a thief, and couldn't help but find it amusing.

But he didn't find her annoying at all; instead, he found her quite cute.

As for the ring, although it was expensive, he didn't mind her wearing it.

Seeing that Bai Wanning was truly coveting the car behind him, Lei Qian cleared his throat and said, "If you like it, take it. I have two more custom-made ones of the same model."

"But..." He raised an eyebrow and asked her, "Are you sure you can handle it?"

"Why don't I show you right now?" Bai Wanning replied without hesitation.

Hearing Lei Qian say she could take the car, her eyes lit up like stars, sparkling with excitement.

At least now, she didn't have to specially go abroad to find the same model, nor did she have to wait for people to slowly modify it.

Seeing her eager, Lei Qian nodded and turned to look at Lu Yu.

Lu Yu glared at Lei Qian with a look of displeasure. This was too much of a simp, wasn't it? Just with a little honey trap, this car was over seventy million, and he just gave it away?

The last time he asked Lei Qian to borrow a car, the other party refused without even thinking, saying something about "not trusting him."

But this time, when Bai Wanning asked, this person actually nodded in agreement without even batting an eye!

"Why are you looking at me like that? Give her the keys." Lei Qian couldn't be bothered with him, his tone calm.

Lu Yu chuckled dryly, turned his head to look at Bai Wanning, and handed over the keys.

Bai Wanning took the keys and almost without hesitation jumped into the car.

She began to explore various functions and then looked at the gear shift dial on the dashboard.

Seeing the newly added acceleration system, her eyes lit up, like a child who had just received a new toy, unable to control her excitement.

Lei Qian also got into the car, sitting next to her, while Lu Yu returned to his seat. Lei Qian looked at Bai Wanning beside him, who was grinning from ear to ear and skillfully adjusting the controls, feeling a sense of relief.

Last night, he was worried that Bai Wanning would completely hate him. Now seeing her like this, he was grateful that he hadn't refused her then.

He was about to open his mouth to teach her how to press the accelerator when Bai Wanning had already pressed the ignition switch and then stomped on the accelerator.

Lei Qian thought she would start slowly, but he didn't expect her to directly press the accelerator!

With a roar, the car shot forward like an arrow from a bow, straight onto the road.

Lei Qian and Lu Yu gripped the safety handles on the edges of their seats tightly. They both looked back at Bai Wanning simultaneously, their faces filled with shock, their mouths wide open in silent gasps.

This, this speed was too crazy!
