Chapter 65 Who gave you permission to steal a kiss from me?
Jian Qinian looked at the university's name in large gold lettering at the top.
I was so dizzy from looking at it.
He knew all too well that what separated him from Shi Yang was more than just Ji Peiheng.
That's a class issue.
It is an insurmountable chasm.
Amidst the turmoil of complex emotions, he had actually made his choice from the very beginning.
"Okay, I promise you."
Ji Peiheng was not surprised at all by his choice.
Before leaving, Jian Qinian said, "Thank you, President Ji."
Ji Peiheng spoke coldly and indifferently: "Our relationship is a transaction, there's no need for thanks."
...
Shi Yang and Xiao Yan were shocked to learn that Jian Qinian had resigned to study abroad.
Before boarding the plane, Jian Qinian left her a message: "Xiao Yang, I'm leaving. My return date is uncertain. I wish you a peaceful, happy, and fulfilling life ahead."
Xiao Yan wondered, "Why did Senior Jian leave in such a hurry? Didn't he even say goodbye to us?"
Shi Yang took a sip of tea and sighed, "It's normal. We're all adults. Life's journey has no end. There are encounters and partings. Always believe that the next stop on the journey will be the most exciting."
Xiao Yan stroked her chin and guessed wildly: "Sister, do you think it's because he liked you, but left because he was heartbroken when he found out you got married?"
Shi Yang flicked her forehead: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"I'm not lying. I don't believe you can't tell that Senior Jian likes you. When President Ji came to the company to support you that day, you didn't even see how heartbroken Senior Jian looked."
Shi Yang glanced at her and said, "Have you been too relaxed at work lately? Do you want me to arrange something for you? When you're busy, you won't have time for gossip."
Xiao Yan immediately covered her mouth: "I was wrong, I promise I won't say it again..."
She went out and then came back in right away.
Before Shi Yang could speak, she said, "Sister, brother-in-law is here."
Shi Yang rubbed her temples, almost forgetting that she had to have dinner with her family after get off work.
Shi Yue has been discharged from the hospital.
As soon as she was discharged from the hospital, the Shi family began arranging for the two families to meet.
After Shi Xing ruined the hospital last time, the Shi family adopted an extremely humble attitude this time.
In the end, the Ji family reluctantly agreed to the meeting.
The meeting place was set at the largest hotel in Beijing.
The time is tonight.
The thought of meeting these people that evening made her unhappy.
So much so that he had a droopy face when he got on the bus.
Ji Peiheng rested his jade-like wrist on the car window, the veins on his wrist winding down his arm and disappearing into his sleeve, a stick of green smoke burning between his fingertips.
"Unhappy?"
Shi Yang leaned her head against the car window, feeling annoyed: "Meeting people I don't want to see is so annoying."
She paused for a moment after saying that.
She is not someone who easily shares her innermost thoughts.
He answered without hesitation when asked.
Have we subconsciously let our guard down?
The words Lu had spoken softly echoed in my heart.
Really?
Has she fallen for him?
He noticed that she was staring at him with a strange look in her eyes.
Ji Peiheng flicked his finger, sending cigarette ash fluttering out the window: "Am I that good-looking? Haven't you seen enough?"
The slender man leaned back in his chair, his features distinct and deep. The light before sunset shone on his long eyelashes, shimmering with tiny golden sparkles. His smiling, almond-shaped eyes seemed to ripple with emotion, his smile enigmatic.
Shi Yang's heart skipped a beat, and her expression went blank for a moment.
Ji Peiheng raised an eyebrow: "It seems that Mrs. Ji is quite satisfied with her husband's appearance."
Shi Yang hurriedly looked away and secretly touched his chest.
Thump, thump...
They jump very fast.
Ji Peiheng said casually, "If you don't want to go, then don't go. Go home?"
"No, you should go."
Now that she is a daughter-in-law of the Ji family, her every move represents the Ji family, so she can't be too ignorant.
...
This wasn't the first time the two families had met for a meal.
The last time was because of Shi Yang and Ji Peiheng's marriage.
Neither meal was very pleasant.
Ji Cheng'an was relatively normal, and he chatted with Shi Bin about their engagement.
Song Zhihua tried to strike up a conversation with her several times, and Qin Lan responded with a few lukewarm words.
Shi Yue nervously held Ji Jinyu's hand.
Ji Jinyu took her hand in return to comfort her.
His gaze, however, unconsciously fell on the area diagonally opposite the round table.
The girl was talking to the man next to her. After saying something, she scratched the man, seemingly both embarrassed and angry.
A faint, indulgent smile always graced the man's lips.
Ji Jinyu found the scene extremely jarring. According to his original thinking, Ji Peiheng disliked Shi Yang and treated her badly. Moreover, there was a first love whose story was widely known. Their relationship must have been very cold, and it was good enough that they hadn't broken up.
But now it presents a sweet and harmonious scene.
He forced himself to look away, but he couldn't help but look over anyway.
Shi Yang was furious. She had just picked up a bite of food when Ji Peiheng took it from her bowl.
No matter what she picked up, Ji Peiheng would try to take it from her.
She glared at him angrily: "Don't you have hands? Why did you have to take mine?"
Ji Peiheng said matter-of-factly, "Yours tastes better."
Shi Yang pinched his hard waist: "I'm warning you, you're not allowed to take food from my plate. If you want some, get it yourself."
She picked up another piece of food with her chopsticks, then circled the plate with both hands in the air, looking at him warily, as if afraid that the food on the plate would be snatched away again in the next second.
She's like a little wolf cub guarding its food.
A hint of a smile appeared in Ji Peiheng's deep eyes, and his heart stirred.
He bent down slightly.
A warm, smooth touch came across her face, and Shi Yang's watery eyes widened slightly: "What are you doing? Who told you to steal a kiss from me?"
Ji Peiheng looked across at the other side with a knowing look.
"If you want to kiss, then kiss. Besides, we're husband and wife, so this is a perfectly legitimate kiss," Ji Peiheng casually corrected her mistake.
Ji Jinyu managed to shift her gaze elsewhere.
Shi Yang felt the gazes from all directions. When she looked up, she saw that everyone was staring at her.
Ji Cheng'an coughed, feigning seriousness, "Pei Heng, stop bullying Yangyang."
Qin Lan covered her mouth with laughter: "Look at these two young people, they're so affectionate they don't even care about the occasion."
Song Zhihua and Shi Bin could only echo each other.
"Yes, seeing them happy makes us parents feel at ease."
Shi Yang was both embarrassed and angry, and glared at him: "Behave yourself."
A nonchalant voice whispered in my ear: "I couldn't help it, my wife is just too cute, I just couldn't resist."
Shi Yang turned her head away, feigning anger, but her heart was pounding, and a smile unconsciously curved her lips.
The main characters at this dinner party suddenly seemed to have become Ji Peiheng and Shi Yang.
The real protagonist, however, is lost in thought.
Ji Jinyu could not forget the look Shi Yang gave Ji Peiheng just now.
Bright and sparkling.
Her eyes sparkled like stars, and her lips curved into a slight smile.
That look in his eyes chilled him to the bone.
Eyes don't lie; she likes Ji Peiheng!
Even back then, she had never looked at me with such bright and radiant eyes.
"Ouch...it hurts."
Shi Yue exclaimed in surprise, and Ji Jinyu came back to his senses.
He quickly let go of her hand.
A red mark was left on the back of his hand from being pinched.
