Crown Prince Jun Zechen, the Empress's legitimate son, was young and accomplished. At fifteen, he was honored as Crown Prince, and at seventeen, he led an army to war, achieving swift victory. ...
Jun Zechen had an appointment tonight, so Su Jingyao drove the pink Maserati that Jun Zechen gave her home by herself.
Cheerful music was playing in the car. Her studio work had been relatively slow recently, so she got off work on time at six in the afternoon.
At this moment, the rosy glow in the sky outside was like a gorgeous painting, shining gently on Su Jingyao's face through the car window, giving her fair skin a faint blush. The corners of her mouth rose slightly, and she felt particularly happy.
When they were about to arrive at the community, Su Jingyao stopped the car and prepared to go to the supermarket to buy some vegetables.
Tomorrow is Saturday, she thought to herself.
I must ask Jun Zechen to cook a meal for me.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong, and she suspected that Jun Zechen had lied to her when he said he could cook.
They have been dating for several months, but Jun Zechen has never done it to her once!
Before, every time after get off work, if Su Jingyao got off work early, she would drive to Huanyu to wait for him. If Jun Zechen left the company earlier, he would come to the studio to pick her up, and then the two of them would go home together.
But every time Friday came and she asked to cook at home on the weekend, Jun Zechen always found various reasons to refuse.
For example, this weekend was their one-month anniversary, so they had to go out for a meal to make it memorable; if it rained on the weekend, he said he would take her to a Jiangnan-style restaurant to experience the romance in the rain; if the sun was shining on the weekend, he said it was a good date, so he took her hiking to enjoy the beauty of nature; if the weekend date contained a number nine, he emphasized that they had to go out to celebrate, and said that every "nine" represented their long-lasting love in the future...
Su Jingyao shook her head helplessly, but the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously. Although she felt a little complaining in her heart, she also found it a kind of fun.
She decided to buy some vegetables today and ask Jun Zechen to cook tomorrow no matter what. She must try his cooking.
After Su Jingyao made her purchase, she carried an exquisite bag in one hand and a bag full of vegetables in the other.
As soon as she walked out of the supermarket, she was stunned.
The man in front of me was wearing a simple white T-shirt and black overalls, looking casual and handsome. His bangs were a little messy and scattered on his forehead, which added a bit of unruly charm.
His three-dimensional mixed-race face was as delicate as a sculpture, with a very Western handsomeness. His deep eyes were like a deep pool. At this moment, he was staring straight at Su Jingyao without moving, as if she was the only one in his eyes.
Su Jingyao frowned, her eyes were full of confusion and alertness, and her expression was very complicated.
It's never a good thing to run into your ex-boyfriend...
The two looked at each other in silence, and the air around them seemed to become heavy. After a long while, Xi Lin walked forward. His movements were very natural, and he stretched out his hand to help Su Jingyao carry the dishes in her hand.
Su Jingyao hurriedly took a few steps back, her movements a little flustered, and deliberately avoided the hand that Xi Lin extended.
Xi Lin's eyes drooped instantly, like a deep cold pond, making it difficult to fathom the emotions contained therein.
The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and he whispered, "Are you so polite?" There was a subtle hint of loss in his voice.
"Why did you come to Country Z?"
Su Jingyao raised her head slightly and frowned even more tightly.
"I came to Country Z for other things, and I came to see you by the way. How are you doing?"
Xi Lin's gaze fell on Su Jingyao's face again, with a hint of concern in his eyes, but he seemed to be trying hard to hide something.
"I am fine."
Su Jingyao answered briefly, in a calm tone.
"You... have a boyfriend?"
Su Jingyao nodded gently without any hesitation.
"Then your boyfriend is not good enough. Yaoyao's hands should not be used to buy groceries and cook." Xi Lin's eyes turned cold in an instant.
"Xi Lin, my boyfriend is very good, I like him very much."
Su Jingyao raised her head and looked straight into Xi Lin's eyes, her tone unquestionable.
"Also... he gets jealous easily. From now on, we... should not meet again."
Xi Lin's eyes suddenly changed, becoming fiery and dangerous, but Su Jingyao, who was looking down, didn't see it.
Over the past few years, the aura that made people afraid to approach him became stronger and stronger, and even revealed a murderous aura that made people shudder.
Xi Lin suddenly approached Su Jingyao step by step.
"Yaoyao, you liked me before, and we had a great time together. Leave him, and I have the ability to give you everything you want, whether you want to live in Country Z or Country M."
Xi Lin's voice was hoarse and mellow, sounding like temptation and threat.
"Xi Lin, we are done."
Su Jingyao's voice was very soft.
The moment she saw Xi Lin, the scenes of their past love affair emerged involuntarily in her mind, and those beautiful memories flashed by one by one like slides.
She had to admit that she had fallen in love with one person after another over the years.
Maybe it's because the other person is good-looking, maybe it's because he has good character, or maybe it's because he has a humorous personality, all of which are enough to make her like him.
However, she also knew clearly that the happiness and love she felt when they were together were real, and the letting go and indifference she felt now were equally real.
The past is past and can never be returned.
Su Jingyao was pushed into a corner by Xi Lin step by step, until her back was against the cold wall. His tall body stood in front of her like a mountain, completely covering her in his shadow.
She raised her head slightly and was able to look into Xi Lin's eyes, which were as deep as the endless night sky. His gaze was like two burning flames, locking onto her tightly.
