In a state of confusion, Li Ziyan was awakened b...
Chapter 63 Tie up that sentimental scumbag (14)
007: "Host, are you leaving just like that?"
"If you're going to do something, do it thoroughly. If there's room for maneuver, there will always be omissions." Li Ziyan said in a light voice. He pulled his suitcase and looked back at the house where he had lived for quite some time.
007: "But according to my data analysis, Shen Zhuoyuan is not a person who can be caught up."
"Data is data, and feelings are feelings. The biggest difference between feelings and data is that there's a variable: people. People are always changing, and feelings are the most difficult to control. If you try to measure a person with a fixed set of data, you're completely wrong." Li Ziyan had a smile on his face, but his eyes weren't as relaxed as before, filled with a hint of sadness. He was also human, and wouldn't fall so easily or so deeply in love, but there was always a sense of reluctance. "Besides, if he doesn't catch up, it's useless for me to stay any longer."
007 was silent. He was just a created system, without emotions and without understanding them. During the time he and Li Ziyan were completing missions together, he was always amazed at the magic and versatility of human beings. Just like now, he felt that Li Ziyan had unknowingly developed feelings for Shen Zhuoyuan.
"Host, how do you feel about your capture target?"
"...I don't know, maybe I like him." Li Ziyan smiled and walked forward, recalling every little bit of his time with Shen Zhuoyuan. "After all, we've been together for so long, with so many intimate actions every day, there's always a time when you're tempted."
What's more, Shen Zhuoyuan always gave him a particularly familiar feeling. Although he was not sure what this feeling was, he subconsciously wanted to get close to him, just like the cocoa milk that Shen Zhuoyuan gave him, so warm that it could soothe his tired heart...
Li Ziyan left very cleanly and thoroughly. He did not leave his city, but found a suburb, rented a house, renovated it simply and moved in.
After all, he was an assistant in a big company before, and his salary for a period of time was enough for him to live. Although he did not resign according to the procedures and rules and paid some liquidated damages, he can still live a good life now.
Just like what he and Shen Zhuoyuan said, he was like an illusory dream, giving Shen Zhuoyuan the sweetest illusion, but it became empty and turned into an illusory bubble.
"Xiaoyan, tea." Shen Zhuoyuan ordered, but no one responded. He looked up and remembered that the office next to him was already empty.
"..." In silence, Shen Zhuoyuan stood up from the stool, moved step by step to the office where Li Ziyan used to be, stroked the still clean table, and sat in the seat that once belonged to Li Ziyan.
There was still a faint scent of camellia from Li Ziyan's body, but it seemed to be about to dissipate.
In three days, Li Ziyan completely disappeared from his world.
Three days, just three short days, but Shen Zhuoyuan felt that his life had become a mess and nothing was right.
The meal was clearly ordered according to his taste, but no matter how he ate it, he found it unpalatable. The meat was not as tender as Li Ziyan's, and the vegetables were not as fragrant as Li Ziyan's. It tasted... and it no longer had the feeling that Li Ziyan gave him.
As soon as I got home, I subconsciously wanted to call Li Ziyan's name, wanting him to appear in front of me. Just give me a hug.
But everything is impossible. Shen Zhuoyuan never thought that such a thing would happen, but he had to admit that Li Ziyan had long infiltrated into his life and became the most irreplaceable part.
Just like Wei Ning said, Li Ziyan is so good. He is like the perfect lover in Shen Zhuoyuan's heart. He is handsome, clean, obedient and well-behaved towards Shen Zhuoyuan. He always gives priority to Shen Zhuoyuan in everything. Even if he is injured, he will just run away without causing any harm to Shen Zhuoyuan.
He really is a bastard... The more he thought of Li Ziyan, the more heartbroken he felt. Those disappointed, shocked, red eyes became the pain in Shen Zhuoyuan's heart, making him unable to get over it...
"Mr. Shen, Miss Chen is here."
Shen Zhuoyuan was leaning back in his chair with his eyes closed. He slowly opened his eyes and walked out to keep his appointment after hearing the words of the temporary secretary outside the door.
This time, Miss Chen did not come alone, but brought a gentleman with her. He seemed to be about the same age as Shen Zhuoyuan, but his temperament was much more elegant, and his eyes showed the energy of a young man.
"Mr. Shen, long time no see." Miss Chen politely shook hands with Shen Zhuoyuan, but she was a little shocked by Shen Zhuoyuan's condition. "This is my boyfriend, Nanxun."
"Hello, Mr. Shen." Nan Xun was neither humble nor overbearing, nor wary when facing Shen Zhuoyuan. Although the man in front of him was his girlfriend's nominal fiancé, he was confident enough that his lover would only choose him.
Chen Mengzhu and Nan Xun were full of vigor and vitality, and their every word and action revealed the sweetness of love. However, Shen Zhuoyuan was alone, with an expression of decadence that could not be concealed.
"Mr. Shen looks a little tired, but has work been too busy recently? Why isn't the assistant next to you here?"
But just two sentences, full of pain points, if it were usual, Shen Zhuoyuan would have responded with sarcasm, but now he no longer had the high spirits he had when he first met Chen Mengzhu.
"Miss Chen, what brings you here today?"
The other party did not answer. Chen Mengzhu was not an ignorant person. She held the hand of the person next to her, and the two of them smiled at each other. Such a sweet and intimate gesture made Shen Zhuoyuan feel sour in his heart. "I told you before that the reason I agreed to our engagement was to buy time for my boyfriend. Now Nanxun's career is on the rise and has a good momentum, so I came to tell you so that I can explain to our family in the future."
"...Yeah, I know." Shen Zhuoyuan responded, his eyes fixed on the two people's indifferent smiles, "Ms. Chen, Mr. Nan, how long have you two been together?"
"It's been four years, but because I didn't have the ability at the time and wasn't worthy of Meng Zhu, I was afraid that my uncle and aunt would be dissatisfied with me, so I didn't dare to propose."
Shen Zhuoyuan nodded. The two people opposite him could see that Shen Zhuoyuan was not in a good state, so they knew what to do and stopped bothering him. They said a few simple words and left.
Before she took two steps, she was stopped by Shen Zhuoyuan, "Mr. Nan, Ms. Chen, I don't mean to offend you, I just want to know how you two maintain your relationship."
"Relationships naturally develop over time. As for how to maintain them..." The two exchanged glances, and Nan Xun continued Chen Mengzhu's words, "Trust, honesty, and loyalty. We are loyal to each other and to our hearts."
