Because I Cannot Hurt You

Chapter 306 - Complicated Generation

"Ah, damn!" Shuang kicked at the flat tire of her car.

"Why did it have to break down right now? I have not even reached my destination! Ugh…"

She was heading towards An Guoting's close friend's house, Guo Long, who lived in a neighboring city. He was her only hope of finding something about the relationship between her father and Han Zongying.

There was no other spare tire in her car, and neither was she able to connect to a mechanic just outside the city.

Her shoulders slumped.

Should I tell Driver Ji to bring another car and tow this one?

She sighed.

Forget it. It's too much trouble.. Guess I will go tomorrow…

*Honk*

Shuang turned and saw a car arrive in front of hers, honking a few times. Her car was blocking most of the road

Ughh…How will I move the car? This will be a mess.

She walked up to the driver's side's window and knocked on it. It slid down, and her gaze met a familiar pair of bluish-grey orbs. The slightly blond hair complimented the man's handsomeness.

Shuang blinked her eyes. "You?"

Jack Si was surprised himself. "Hey. What a coincidence."

She narrowed her eyes. "Yeah…"

"What? Don't you believe me? Or you thought I was stalking you?" He curiously raised his brow.

Shuang smiled. "You should take care of your balls if you try to do something dangerous like stalking me. Dr. Jack Si will end up in the hospital himself.

He heartily laughed. "That's more like it. You are a normal woman, it seems."

"Excuse me?"

Jack Si shrugged. "I haven't met any sane woman until now. Some of them have stalked me in the past, and when I asked to stop them, they instead complained that I wasn't stalking them. They would be so happy if I did."

Her brow twitched.

"And I was wondering what was wrong with their brains? I still do. Stalking is a crime whether the man is handsome or ugly."

Shuang raised a brow. "You seem to be a man of principles too."

"Thank you for the compliment."

"Though I am still salty about the Summit night," she said in disdain.

It was when he openly compared her messy love life to games. For him, it was an amusing way to expose her but really not at the same time.

Jack Si cleared his throat. "I couldn't help it. When I see people stuck in their past and who refuse to move on, I get this urge to... tease them a bit. Call me sadist if you wish."

"Huh? What kind of a fetish is that?"

"Well…"

"Also, what do you know about moving on?"

"Oh, trust me, I know plenty," he smiled.

She remained quiet. His smile seemed to be sorrowful for some reason. She felt a little curious to know the pain behind it.

Jack Si was nothing less than a dream man for any woman. They drooled at his sight and crawled for his attention.

Did such a man really face something similar to her?

"Anyway. I see your car is broken. Do you need my help?"

Shuang let it go.

"Do you have a spare tire? I got a flat one."

"Ah, unfortunately, I don't," he sighed.

There goes my last hope.

Jack Si gave it a thought. "Why don't I give you a ride? You call the tow company and get this sorted out. Then I will drop you off wherever you want."

Shuang looked beyond. "But you are going towards home while I am going away from the city. It will be too much of a bother for you."

He shrugged. "I don't mind. I was out of the city for a short doctor trip. I have taken a day off today anyway, so I don't have anything else to do."

"You have, and that is to rest at home and chill after your trip," she folded her arms.

He chuckled. "Is that concern I hear?"

"You bet. I don't want you to go back and forth because of me-"

He waved his hand. "You are overthinking. Just hop in. It will be my pleasure to accompany you. A sane woman, to be precise. It's such a breather."

Shuang widened her eyes but then burst into a chuckle. "Alright. If you insist, but don't come crying to me if you get tired."

Jack Si gave a thumbs-up. "Mark my words."

So she quickly called the towing company and gave the address to pick her car. As she sat on the passenger seat, he asked, "Where are we headed to?"

Shuang showed him the address on GPS.

"Cool," He took a U-turn and sped his car away.

A few minutes later, he asked, "Is it related to work? Your trip."

"Nah. He is my Dad's close friend. I have some questions to ask him about Dad and someone."

Jack Si's gaze was focused at the road, but his ears perked up in curiosity. "You are going to visit someone who will tell you about your father?"

"Yup."

"And you cannot ask your father."

"I would love to, and I tried as well. But he avoided my questions and ran away. So he pretty much doesn't want to reveal anything about his past. So I guessed his friend might know something."

Jack Si squinted his eyes.

"Is that someone else a woman?"

Shuang turned her head in surprise.

"Your reaction means that I am right," he smiled. "Well, I am not a brain doctor for nothing."

"I thought you only cut up and stitched back the brain," she commented.

He laughed. "Psychology is closely related to the brain and its functioning, so I know a bit about it."

"I see. Well, you are right. It's a woman. To be precise, it's about Zhiyuan's aunt. It's something related to them that ruined the relationship between our families."

He nodded. "Xiaosi told me about it. That the elder Han never liked the An family, and so he didn't like sister-in-law as well."

"Yup."

He tilted his head. "So...does this have any connection to what happened to my sister-in-law that night?"

"We all strongly feel so. But neither Zhiyuan's parents want to say anything nor my Dad," she sighed. "Our parents' generation is so complicated…"
