Chapter 43

"Have you ordered yet?"

"not yet."

"What do you want to eat..."

"Anything is fine."

Shi Ye found that the person who was originally full of energy suddenly became listless and lost all energy.

"Are you feeling unwell?"

Jiang Zhinian glanced at Shi Ye resentfully, then raised his watery eyes, sweeping across people's hearts like a small feather.

"No..." He stood up in despair, "I'm going to the bathroom, you order first."

When she was buying cosmetics, the clerk gave her two makeup remover wipes for trial. Jiang Zhinian was stingy and wanted to save money, so she didn't buy a special makeup remover.

When I got to the bathroom and took off my makeup, I realized that there were not enough makeup remover wipes.

The foundation on my face and the eyeshadow on my eyes were removed, but the lipstick on my lips...

After Shi Ye ordered the food, he happened to see Jiang Zhinian walking back with her mouth covered.

"What's wrong?"

Jiang Zhinian shrank his neck and lowered his head, refusing to look up: "It's okay."

Just a bit of a social dead.

Shi Ye stood up and walked to her side, half squatting down to check her face: "Maybe you are allergic to the cosmetics..."

During pregnancy, hormones are unstable and the skin is easily irritated and allergic.

Jiang Zhinian had her chin pinched by him, and she raised her head tremblingly. She was so ashamed that she even closed her eyes, with only her butterfly-like eyelashes fluttering.

Shi Ye's gaze stopped on her lips that were covered with lipstick, and the image of her applying lipstick in front of the mirror seemed to appear in his mind.

A pure and innocent face, because of this touch of blush, was smeared with the traces of a woman.

Just like that morning, he came out of the bathroom and wanted to talk to her, but there was nothing left on the snow-white sheets except that red stain.

…

"Shi Ye..." Jiang Zhinian was pinched by him and felt pain, so he couldn't help but remind him.

Shi Ye came to his senses and let go of his hand.

"No allergies." He stood up and rubbed his fingers gently.

"Don't you think it's strange?"

"What's strange." Shi Ye returned to his seat and sat down. Jiang Zhinian then realized that Shi Ye's temperament at this moment was unexpectedly noble, completely different from his usual appearance.

Whether they are cool, casual, or carrying vegetables, their looks are all different.

It's like an upbringing that's ingrained in me.

"What's strange?" Seeing Jiang Zhinian in a daze, Shi Ye asked again.

"Ah, oh, it's just... doesn't it look weird without makeup but with lipstick and stuff?"

Hearing the word "lipstick", Shi Ye's eyes once again swept over the slightly opened lips in front of him, with some cold scrutiny, and then said: "Not strange."

He picked up the cup and took a sip of water, then said slowly, "It looks very good."

Jiang Zhinian couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat - Shi Ye said, it looks very good.

Are you saying that her lipstick looks good, or are you complimenting her on being...good-looking?

Jiang Zhinian lowered his head and raised his hand to stroke the long hair beside his ear, which was a touch of gentleness and touching.

The waiter came over and asked politely, "We're having a restaurant event, and we're offering free Polaroid photos. Would you like any?"

“Ah, no need…”

"Okay." Shi Ye stood up, walked behind Jiang Zhinian, and took her hand. "Stand up and take the photo together."

The shooting range of Polaroid cameras is limited, and it is difficult to be photographed while standing or sitting.

Jiang Zhinian was pulled by him to stand beside him.

The waiter held up a Polaroid camera and said, "Come closer, please."

Jiang Zhinian moved closer cautiously, but Shi Ye put his arm around her shoulders.

"Okay, smile. One, two, three..."

The flash went off and a white picture spat out of the camera.

"Cover it with your palm, and it will show up in a moment."

Jiang Zhinian took the photo and thanked him with a smile.

This was her first time taking a photo with a Polaroid camera, and she was very interested in it: "Shi Ye, look, it's out."

The colors in the photo gradually changed from light to dark, and the appearance of the two people gradually emerged.

They were like a real couple, celebrating their holiday in a romantic restaurant.

…

It was already past eight o'clock when they returned to the hotel. Jiang Zhinian felt sleepy and went to wash up first. Shi Ye said he had something to do and went out to make a phone call.

Shi Ye didn't come back until Jiang Zhinian finished taking a shower.

She felt vaguely uneasy, as if something had happened.

I went back to bed and lay down, intending to wait for Shi Ye to come back and ask him, but I ended up being so sleepy that I fell asleep in a daze.

When I woke up again, I didn't know what time it was, but Shi Ye had already finished taking a shower and was leaning on the bed reading a book.

"woke up."

"Hmm...how long have I slept?"

"It's ten o'clock."

Jiang Zhinian stretched and said, "Sorry, I can't sleep."

"Want to watch a movie?"

"Sure, but there aren't many movies to watch on the hotel TV."

"I have it on my iPad, want to check it out?"

Jiang Zhinian's hand, which was searching for the remote control, froze instantly.

Past? Where?

She turned back hesitantly and saw Shi Ye moved closer and lifted the quilt.

Jiang Zhinian licked the corner of his mouth, got out of bed with his heart pounding, and sat next to Shi Ye.

Shi Ye covered her with the quilt, took the iPad and opened the app.

"What movie do you want to watch?"

"Anything is fine."

Shi Ye chose a French romance movie.

Jiang Zhinian felt the body temperature of the people around her, and her hands were sweating with nervousness. She had just made up her mind to conquer Shi Ye today, and she wouldn't have the chance tonight.

The opening credits were a bit long, so Shi Ye didn't choose to skip it. Instead, he asked him in a casual tone, "Did you and Zhao Ze'an meet again later?"

Jiang Zhinian had never thought that he might be curious about Zhao Zean, but he had never thought that he would ask this question at this time and in this atmosphere.

"I met him last time when I went to apply for a family planning service certificate. We exchanged a few words then."

"Did he harass you?" Otherwise, I wouldn't have told him about the marriage.

Jiang Zhinian thought for a moment: "It's not harassment, it's just... I can't put my finger on it."

"What do you think of him?"

Jiang Zhinian quickly shook her head to express her sincerity: "I have absolutely no feelings for him."

Shi Ye smiled and said, "The soundtrack of this movie is very nice."

After the opening credits, the movie entered the main part. Jiang Zhinian was still immersed in the previous conversation and did not react for a while.

"Oh, oh..." She turned her head away and stopped looking at Shi Ye, pretending to watch the movie seriously.

"Then who do you have feelings for?" Shi Ye suddenly leaned close to her ear and whispered softly.

Her voice is like a cello in the night, low and gentle, slowly plucking people's heartstrings.

The room was dim at this time, with no main lights on. Only a reading lamp standing at the head of the bed was emitting a dim light. Everything was so incredible.

Jiang Zhinian was disturbed by the hot breath he sprayed on her ear.

Closing her eyes and making up her mind, Jiang Zhinian secretly hooked Shi Ye's fingers.

This, this should be considered seduction.

Can Shi Ye understand what he means?

Will he shake his hand off?

Jiang Zhinian didn't dare to open his eyes, but just waited quietly for the other party's reaction.
