Chapter 142 What am I like in your heart?

On the way back, Zhou Yunjie kept looking at Shen Zhiyu secretly.

She pretended to glance out of the car casually, but her eyes always fell involuntarily on his well-defined profile.

The man had slightly raised eyebrows, a high nose bridge, and even his jawline exuded a cold sharpness.

Fortunately, it was late, which concealed her little movements.

The man held the steering wheel steadily with one hand, and his other arm was casually placed on the armrest of the center console. His cuffs were slightly rolled up, revealing a wrist with well-defined lines and texture.

His arm was only an inch away from hers, and they were very close, so close that she could smell the faint scent of cedar on him. The cool breath seemed to wrap around her, making her heart beat inexplicably faster.

Zhou Yunjie couldn't help but turn his head to peek again, but when he was about to look away, he suddenly met Shen Zhiyu's gaze.

The man's eyes were calm, but with a hint of teasing, as if he had already seen through her little actions.

Her ears felt a little hot, and she smiled awkwardly, pretending to look at the street scene passing by outside the window and quickly turned her head away.

"Do you have anything to say?"

Shen Zhiyu's slow voice sounded in the quiet car, breaking the silence first.

Zhou Yunjie then turned his head to look at him.

The soft light from the street lamp outside the car window shone in through the car window, casting fine shadows on his profile.

"Thank you."

"Thank me for what?"

"Thank you for giving me a chance to clear Xue Na's name!" Zhou Yunjie raised his face, his eyes sparkling, and the smile on his lips could not be hidden. "I told you that you are a good person..."

After listening to this, Shen Zhiyu raised his hand and stroked his chin, with the corners of his mouth curling up almost imperceptibly, "Is this the highest praise you can give to a person?"

"ah?"

Zhou Yunjie was stunned for a moment, then realized the teasing in his words. His ears turned slightly red and he muttered softly, "It's hard to be a good person, okay?"

Shen Zhiyu's expression paused slightly, then he nodded, "Indeed, good people and bad people are often separated by a thin line of thought."

"Yes, just like I originally thought you were a high-ranking dandy who didn't care about the lives of the lower-level employees. But in the eyes of Xinglai's employees, you are a very outstanding boss who treats your employees very well."

Zhou Yunjie spoke seriously, but he didn’t notice the change in Shen Zhiyu’s expression.

"What about you?" Shen Zhiyu suddenly asked, with a hint of casual inquiry in his voice, "What kind of person am I in your heart?"

Zhou Yunjie was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then the moments when he was alone with him suddenly flashed through his mind. The vine that broke out of the ground in his heart gradually grew bigger and spread all over his body.

That was a different feeling from being with Cheng Hongwei.

It was her sudden mature emotion after going through all those unbearable things.

It was a sudden epiphany she had after a failure.

At this moment, she clearly understood why the rationality in her body always reminded her to stay true to her heart.

That's because she had already lost her heart while getting along with Shen Zhiyu.

But she knew clearly that he married her only because of the inherited shares.

After the one-year period, the two had no more contact.

When I thought of this, the vines in my heart that had just grown tentacles quietly shrank back.

After all, he and I are no longer from the same world.

"Is it so difficult for you to evaluate me that you haven't been able to come up with the right words for such a long time?"

Shen Zhiyu's question interrupted Zhou Yunjie's thoughts. She came back to her senses, glanced at him, and replied in a light tone, "Romantic and suave... handsome and unrestrained... tall and mighty... are you satisfied?"

Shen Zhiyu sneered when he heard this, "Perfunctory."

Zhou Yunjie smiled and said nothing more.
