◎It doesn’t matter if you have a boyfriend◎
Are you crazy?
Shen Lie doesn't think so. He has always been like this. Since he wants it, he should get it. He doesn't care about the process, only the results. He just wants to achieve his goal. He didn't mind doing more if necessary.
Chen Jing'an stared at him closely, her eyebrows were darkened, her face was cold and aloof, her chest was rising and falling violently, she was afraid and wary, her red and stubborn lips were biting to the point of turning white, indicating that she was in a bad mood.
Shen Lie didn't care: "It seems tonight is not a good time to chat."
"Ji Hong, whether Miss Chen agrees to get in the car or not, or wants to take a taxi herself, you have to see her return to school intact."
"Okay, Don't worry, Mr. Shen."
Ji Hong stretched out his hand again: "Miss Chen, please."
Chen Jing'an was so angry that her lips trembled. No matter how she straightened her shoulders and neck, it was just an empty shell of bravado. Shen Lie turned around. When she left behind a figure, her strength was instantly relieved. She was like a deflated balloon, deflating at a speed visible to the naked eye, without any vitality at all.
The dark night was like a densely woven net, which had been caught before she even noticed it.
Chen Jing'an regained her composure and her usual politeness, and told Ji Hong that she would not get in the car and would instead take a taxi back to school. In the rearview mirror, the Bentley kept following closely. She closed her eyes and pretended she didn't see it.
Looking back later, maybe everything has been traced for a long time.
Why was Qin Yinian suddenly transferred to Bincheng? Before that, Shen Lie had never paid attention to Qin Yuanming's overtures. The timing was so coincidental that it was a teacher and then a roommate. So what about meeting Qin Yuanming... She didn't She knew that there was something written by Shen Lie in it, but just an idea already made her tremble.
How could a person, how could he, calculate to such an extent? !
—Zhou
Zhengqing was discharged from the hospital on Friday.
Chen Jing'an had already completed the discharge procedures. There were not many things in the hospital, so it was useless to take them back, so she packed her toothbrush and other small items. Some family members of the patients saw Chen Jing'an busy and praised Zhou Zhengqing for having a good daughter. The master and the apprentice looked at each other and smiled. Zhou Zhengqing raised his eyebrows: "No, my daughter is excellent, right?"
"Excellent, long-term She's pretty, do you have a boyfriend?"
Zhou Zhengqing looked at the other party's attitude of introducing someone, waved his hand and said to leave now.
After being discharged from the hospital, Zhou Zhengqing was obviously in a good mood. He smelled the air outside and sighed that the smell of disinfectant was finally gone. On the way, he asked Chen Jing'an how she was practicing for her next performance. She was talented and calm enough to practice hard. He was not worried: "It's just that you have to rely on yourself during this period."
"Teacher, you are responsible for practicing well. , The rear is stable and the front is at ease."
Zhou Zhengqing smiled.
Chen Jing'an lowered his eyebrows, as if he mentioned it unintentionally: "Teacher, have you grown up watching Shen Lie?"
"Why do you ask so suddenly?"
"I'm just curious."
Zhou Zhengqing frowned and thought about it seriously, then shook his head. : "No, actually speaking, I am more familiar with his second uncle. His second uncle is half a fan of mine and half an expert. We have known each other for more than thirty years. Besides, Shen Lie studied abroad with his mother since he was a child. He returned to China later.
"I was a little surprised that he took care of me this time, probably because of his father and uncle's instructions. He is a good young man, excellent and humble."
Chen Jing'an just nodded. He may be excellent, but he is modest. impossible.
She hadn't slept well these past few days. She always had nightmares. She suddenly saw being chased by a wolf, being attacked by a tiger, and being bitten by a hunting dog. She woke up in the middle of the night and broke out in a cold sweat. When she was in a state of shock, she suddenly remembered that night with Shen Lie. He said "I want you", his dark eyes were that of a predator who was bound to win, and she suddenly felt that nightmares were not that scary.
It was also the same weekend. Ruan Ling saw that Chen Jing'an had been absent-minded these days, so she wanted to invite her to go out for a walk, eat some delicious food, meet people, and bask in the sun. Maybe she would feel better. She thought that Chen Jing'an was in a different place. Lian and Qin Yinian were at odds, so he took the initiative to explain a few words, saying that long-distance relationships require more communication, and you can't keep things in your heart alone.
Chen Jing'an smiled bitterly.
The problem she had with Qin Yinian probably couldn't be solved through communication. She wanted to take the initiative to ask, but he couldn't show it off. The situation was embarrassing, and it had been like a joke in the past few years.
Ruan Ling answered the phone call midway, smiling like a little girl. After hanging up, she confessed to Chen Jing'an: "It's the boy from the hotel last time."
"Are you together?" Chen Jing'an had a vague impression that he was tall and fair-skinned.
"Not yet, but it should be soon." Ruan Ling stuck out his tongue.
Chen Jing'an nodded and only told her to pay more attention and consider it. Ruan Ling nodded and did not want to continue talking about this issue. Suddenly he remembered something: "Do you know? It turns out that he and Shen Lie know each other. What a coincidence. He and I It's a pity that he was a handsome guy, but he didn't know what he looked like. He said he would meet him next time. " Ruan
Ling said to himself, "But it's normal. It's not strange for rich people to know each other."
Jing'an was stunned.
She suddenly remembered that Ruan Ling told her that she didn't hear any calls from her mobile phone in the bar, and that she must have accidentally pressed it when she turned it off. She was drunk and couldn't remember anything.
What if the phone was turned off deliberately?
And this person happened to know Shen Lie.
The sun was shining brightly, at two or three o'clock in the afternoon, it was clearly the highest temperature of the day. Chen Jing'an stood there, with students coming and going around her, walking past her, like shadows in a movie lens. She was dizzy and felt that she was in a In the cellar, a stinging chill ran down my back.
Ruan Ling noticed something was wrong with her and asked, "Jing'an, are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Chen Jing'an held her hand, her fingers were cold. She tried her best to stay calm and looked at Ruan Ling: "I feel a little uncomfortable. I want to go back." Rest in the dormitory."
"Okay, go back to the dormitory. Do you want me to go to the infirmary to buy you some medicine?"
"No, your blood sugar is probably low. You just need to rest for a while."
"Okay, if you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me! " Ruan Ling emphasized again and again.
Chen Jing'an stayed in the dormitory all day and thought more clearly. So what if Shen Lie was really powerful? In today's society, could he really cover the sky with one hand? She doesn't want to, and no one can force her.
As for Qin Yinian, if the bottom line is really crossed, it is just a breakup, and anyone who leaves can move on. She will continue to move forward. She has a pipa, a teacher, and parents. She will stand on a bigger and bigger stage. When she looks back, it will all be a passing cloud.
She soothed herself, calmed herself, held her pipa, and stayed in the practice room for several days in a row. The music healed her heart, and she felt as impetuous as she had never started.
At least that was the case a week before hearing Shen Lie's name again.
—
Ruan Ling is experiencing a new relationship and often goes out. When she returns to the dormitory, Chen Jing'an is rarely there. She has been in the practice room for the past few days. Now she is sitting at the table with a movie playing on the computer screen. Looking closer, she sees the actor. Only then did she notice that she was watching an old movie. In the picture, the heroine Knightley's green dress was incredibly beautiful.
Chen Jing'an was a little lost in thought and didn't really look into it.
"What's wrong? I feel like you don't look well these past two days. Are you sick?" Ruan Ling probed her forehead. Her body temperature was normal, but there was no blood on her face.
"fine."
Ruan Ling stood beside her and said, "Jing'an, someone is looking for you."
"Who."
"Mr. Shen." Ruan Ling was also curious why Shen Lie was looking for Chen Jing'an. In her opinion, there was not much between the two of them. After deep communication, "Jing'an, why is Mr. Shen looking for you?"
Chen Jing'an's face turned paler, and the blood on his fingertips solidified: "What did he say."
Ruan Ling went to the other party's company because of the issue of the balance after the filming, but was People invited people to go to the top floor. She was nervous when she saw Shen Lie. This was the first time she saw his appearance clearly. It instantly corresponded to the vague image after being drunk. She was so surprised that she lost her voice. Why is he so rich and not bald?
Shen Lie asked her to do a favor.
Ruan Ling was even more surprised after hearing this: "You're looking for Jing'an? What happened?"
"She owes me something."
"I owe you something. What do I owe you?" Ruan Ling asked curiously. She really didn't expect such a huge disparity in status. How could the older two have any debt relationship? She thought of one thing and quickly denied it. Jing'an was not that kind of person and she would never betray Qin Yinian.
Shen Lie raised his eyes and half-smiled: "Why, do you want to pay it back for her?"
Ruan Ling immediately shook his head in silence, not daring to ask any more questions. She didn't dare to ask Shen Lie, so she had to ask Chen Jing'an: "He said you owed him something. Jing'an, what do you owe him?"
Money? Impossible. Not to mention how good Chen Jing'an's family is, they are also wealthy. She has never seen Jing'an in financial embarrassment.
Chen Jing'an looked at the umbrella she had put away, and Ruan Ling also looked over.
"Mr. Shen lent you this umbrella?"
"Yes."
Ruan Ling breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled: "No wonder, this umbrella is not cheap, and you can't buy it if you have money. No wonder people are anxious, you should return it as soon as possible. "
It's time to give it back."
Chen Jing'an was at the school courier station. The umbrella was already wrapped. She even filled in the order number. Shen Lie's driver called her and asked if she had classes in the evening. If it was not convenient for her to go out of school, he came to get the umbrella.
"Don't bother, I'll send it directly."
"Ms. Chen, this is Mr. Shen's arrangement. Don't embarrass me." The driver sighed.
Chen Jing'an hardened her heart and replied that she was not the one who was embarrassing him. She wanted to bite the bullet and send it directly. The driver asked: "Ms. Chen, you actually know, is it important whether you have this umbrella?"
Is it important?
As long as Shen Lie wants to see her, there are always various ways.
"Miss Chen, don't make it difficult for yourself."
Chen Jing'an was silent for a long time, and said in a cold tone: "Nine o'clock, if it exceeds the time, I will send it directly."
"Okay, Miss Chen."
At nine o'clock sharp, Chen Jing'an left the school gate. The temperature dropped sharply in the past few days, and the weather forecast predicted three consecutive days of heavy rain. She found a thick sweater jacket. The jacket was loose and made her figure slimmer. There was no trace of joy on her palm-sized face, which was cold and sad. The steps are a little heavier, and each step is a little slow. The lights at the school entrance had been there for several years, and the dim yellow light enveloped her faintly. She raised her eyes and saw a car parked on the roadside.
The logo on the car was exactly the same as the one on the umbrella, it was the Rolls-Royce on the rainy day.
This is the first time I’ve seen him in so many days. Intentionally or unintentionally, I don't want her to find out.
A luxury car parked outside the school gate, naturally attracting a lot of attention. Unless she wanted to become famous overnight, she did not walk over, crossed the car, and continued walking forward. The car followed, but the road to the school was blocked, and the speed was reduced to ten. The code, started and stopped, was consistent with her walking speed.
One person and one car, a strange harmony.
The car detoured to a nearby branch road and stopped. The area where this road led was still under development. It was dusty and there were few people and cars. Shen Lie pushed the door and got out of the car. There was a step between the two of them and they looked at each other with dark eyes. But he smiled: "This is Miss Chen's attitude towards creditors."
Chen Jing'an handed over the umbrella and said politely and distantly: "It's intact. If Mr. Shen is worried, you can check it."
"You're welcome."
The driver took the umbrella. , opened the car door, put the umbrella in, walked aside to smoke, and returned the things to their original places, as if everything had never happened. If possible, Chen Jing'an would rather get caught in the rain that day than accept this umbrella.
Chen Jing'an still said thank you: "Thank you for the umbrella. Now that the things have been returned, Mr. Shen, can I leave?"
"Why not, as if I can tie you up?" Shen Lie smiled, "Maybe, if You've been talking to me like this against your will, maybe I'd like to make an exception, and thanks to the place I picked with Miss Chen, there are very few people here, so it's a good place."
He was clearly dressed in formal clothes, and his whole body was neatly ironed, without any wrinkles that would be an eyesore. He looked decent and gentle, with a gentle smile on his face and a smile in his eyes, but under this face, what he said in his mouth was complete bastards.
Chen Jing'an scolded you without thinking, "You bastard!"
His smile deepened, and Shen Lie asked, "Do you want to talk here again, or somewhere else?"
"I have nothing to talk to you about." Chen Jing'an crossed his arms. , in psychology, it not only reflects nervousness, but also a kind of self-protection. She raised her head and looked directly at Shen Lie, "Mr. Shen, I have a boyfriend."
"I know."
"I have a good relationship with A Nian. We will get married, start a family, and have children."
"Really?" Shen Lie asked calmly.
Chen Jing'an's eyes flashed and she insisted: "With Mr. Shen's status, there is really no need to spend time on me. I am just an ordinary student. I just want to have a stable job after graduation, just like other ordinary people."
"No more?"
"..."
Chen Jing'an seemed to be pierced, and the calmness and reason she had pretended to be disappeared at this moment. She pursed her lips, stubborn and stubborn, and looked at Shen Lie: "I know that men are very possessive. Desire and competition, I know there is a disagreement between you and Qin Yinian. I have no control over your affairs, but they have nothing to do with me. I am not a thing, I am a human being. "You
can't have it just because you want it ." Just throw it away.
Shen Lie closed his eyelids and suppressed his smile. The street lamp shone on his face. As soon as he lowered his eyes, there was a faint shadow on his eyelids: "You mean Qin Yinian?"
Since birth, he has not been comparable to others. He was thinking , is this considered an overstepping of boundaries?
"Do you think it's because of him?"
He smiled, and Chen Jing'an felt that there was a hint of laughter in her innocence.
Chen Jing'an didn't answer, there was a brief silence.
Shen Lie seemed to suddenly be addicted to cigarettes. He took out a cigarette from the cigarette case but did not light it. He just held it between his fingers and twisted it lightly or lightly. There was a very faint smell of tobacco in the air, which was different from the smell of lighting. , failed to get relief, but he felt that it aroused a deeper addiction.
He took a step forward, from the light to the dark, and got closer to her.
But Chen Jing'an was frightened and instinctively took a step back.
Shen Lie lowered his eyes and looked at her: "The first time we met was in the theater. You are not someone's girlfriend, not Qin Yinian's, or anyone else. You are holding a pipa on the stage. I don't even know who you are. My second uncle Ask me, what do you think of this little girl? I asked which little girl I knew."
He smiled, as if he could still remember her appearance on the stage, "I'm curious about how such a thin body can explode. So much energy. It was interesting the first time we met, but later I found out you were Qin Yinian’s girlfriend, which was a bit disappointing, but it didn’t hurt. "
Chen Jing'an couldn't say a word, Shen Lie's shadow was reflected in her pupils, he blocked all the light, he merged with the darkness, her heart was grabbed, she held her breath, as if she would drown in the next second.
"It doesn't matter if you have a boyfriend."
Shen Lie curled his lips in an extremely elegant manner: "After all, he will be gone soon."
