Long Night

When she was young, he said, "When we grow up, I'll marry you, then no one will dare to bully you anymore."

Later, he did marry her, but it wasn't because of that promise; it ...

Chapter 15 Brother Ayu

Chapter 15

Shen Qinghuan narrowed her eyes and smiled, then said carelessly, "Jiang Yu, it's enough for you to just keep this kind of thing in your heart. It's so boring to talk about it out loud!"

"Shen Qinghuan!"

Jiang Yu opened his mouth slightly, and felt the anger in his heart bubbling out, unable to suppress it no matter what.

Shen Qinghuan curled her lips, feeling somewhat helpless. "You don't need to be so loud, I can hear you. As for why I'm with Li Mingzhu, you may not believe what I say, so go ask her, and whatever she says is what I believe."

"Since you don't want to say it, then I won't ask, but Shen Qinghuan..."

As if she had guessed what Jiang Yu would say next, Shen Qinghuan quickly interrupted him: "Give up on that idea! I will not apologize to her! Even if you kneel down in front of me and beg me, I will not agree to apologize to her!"

After all, she didn't feel that she had done anything wrong. She even felt that a cup of coffee was a bargain for Li Mingzhu.

Jiang Yu frowned in dissatisfaction, "Shen Qinghuan, you were the one who started it first, so you're wrong!"

Shen Qinghuan lowered her eyes, unconsciously clenched her fingers, and asked without hesitation: "What if I just don't apologize? If I just don't apologize to Li Mingzhu, Jiang Yu, what are you going to do to me?"

She raised her chin and stared stubbornly at the man in front of her, her eyes burning.

Jiang Yu's chest felt like it was burned and he couldn't utter a word.

Seeing Jiang Yu's silence, Shen Qinghuan raised the corners of her lips and smiled mockingly, "Why are you silent? Didn't you ask me to apologize to Li Mingzhu? Jiang Yu, beg me! If you beg me, I might apologize to her once I'm in a better mood."

Jiang Yu's expression changed slightly, and his brows furrowed even tighter. "Shen Qinghuan, if you do something wrong, you should apologize. This is what grandpa taught us when we were young."

Hearing this, Shen Qinghuan's smile grew even brighter, but that smile never reached her eyes. She said, "Jiang Yu, you still remember when you were little. I thought your heart couldn't hold anything else except Li Mingzhu."

"Miss, your coffee is ready!" The waiter just came over with the packaged coffee.

Shen Qinghuan quickly took it and said with a smile: "Thank you! Your Nanshan is especially delicious. I will come again next time."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Jiang Yu again.

"Jiang Yu, whether you admit it or not, I am your legal wife, Mrs. Jiang, so it's okay for you to apologize on my behalf. I think Li Mingzhu will be happy to accept this approach."

Shen Qinghuan left after saying that, took the packed coffee and turned to leave.

Jiang Yu choked and subconsciously wanted to catch up, but Li Mingzhu just came out of the bathroom and called him.

"Ayu!"

"Sorry! She had something urgent to do and left first." Jiang Yu calmly explained for Shen Qinghuan, "I apologize to you on her behalf."

Li Mingzhu smiled bitterly and shook her head, saying softly, "Ayu, you don't need to apologize to me on Huanhuan's behalf. I know in my heart that Huanhuan doesn't like me, but I didn't want her to misunderstand you because of my presence, so I invited her to have coffee together."

"I was wrong about what happened that night. I wanted to apologize to her, but she..."

Li Mingzhu lowered her eyes and smiled self-deprecatingly, but it was also extremely bitter.

Jiang Yu frowned slightly and said coldly, "You don't have to apologize to her for what happened that night."

"Ayu, you and Huanhuan..." Li Mingzhu hesitated, looking at Jiang Yu with desolate eyes, then lowered her head helplessly, "I'm sorry! I asked too much, I shouldn't have asked. Ayu, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first."

The corners of her eyes were red, and she looked pitiful.

Li Mingzhu hesitated as if remembering something, then said firmly, "Ayu, I, I don't want to go out anymore. I want to stay."

Jiang Yu didn't take Li Mingzhu's decision to heart, nor did he care. He just said, "Sister Mingzhu, this is your own business. Just think it through. If you need any help, you can call me."

"I know, I'm just worried about Huanhuan..."

As Li Mingzhu spoke, a hint of crimson appeared at the corners of her eyes.

Jiang Yu frowned slightly and said, "Sister Mingzhu, the innocent will be innocent."

"You're right! The innocent are innocent. Why should I explain so much? Those who believe in you will always believe in you. If someone doesn't want to believe you, even if you explain it a thousand times, they may not believe you."

Li Mingzhu chuckled, as if hinting at something.

After leaving the cafe, Shen Qinghuan took a taxi directly to his home.

She sat quietly on the sofa in the living room, drinking coffee and watching TV, and specially ordered a spicy duck dish.

The next day was Black Monday, and I went to work.

Although she and Jiang Yu worked in the same company, one was the boss and the other was the general assistant, they had never worked together. Jiang Yu had a driver to pick him up, while Shen Qinghuan either took a taxi to work or took the subway.

Because he drank coffee yesterday, Shen Qinghuan didn't fall asleep until midnight, so he naturally couldn't get up in the morning.

"Um, Jiang Yu, can I take your car to go to the company today?"

When he was young, Jiang Yu told him that if he needed help from others, he must act as if he was asking for help.

Shen Qinghuan smiled just the right amount, thinking that there was a hint of flattery in her smile, but not to the point of being overly humble.

Jiang Yu turned his head and glanced at her lazily, raised his lips and said, "Shen Qinghuan, is this how you usually ask for help?"

Shen Qinghuan choked and clenched her fingers tightly. Her attitude was already very good.

But she was under someone else's roof, and now she wanted to take a ride! Shen Qinghuan took a deep breath, a soft smile spread across her delicately made-up face, and she said in a delicate voice, "Brother Ayu, can I take your car to the company today?"

Fearing that he would not agree, she added, "When the time comes, just ask the driver to drop me off at the intersection." The words "Brother Ayu" made Shen Qinghuan feel so sick that she wanted to vomit. God knows how long it has been since she called him that.

Jiang Yu frowned slightly, his eyes narrowed slightly, hiding the throbbing in his eyes.

He said nothing and walked straight into the yard.

Shen Qinghuan was stunned. Was he agreeing or refusing? After weighing the pros and cons, she gritted her teeth and followed him.

Seeing Jiang Yu sitting in the back seat, she hesitated for a moment and decided to sit in the passenger seat.

She didn't want to forgive him for what happened yesterday afternoon yet.

No conversation along the way.

When they reached the intersection closest to the company, Shen Qinghuan quickly said, "He Xian, please just put me in front."

He Xian: "...Sorry! Madam, this is up to Mr. Jiang."

Shen Qinghuan opened her mouth, turned her head to look at Jiang Yu, who had been resting with his eyes closed, and asked, "Can you ask He Xian to stop at the intersection ahead?"
