Chapter 671 What if I say no?
Su Yan took a sip of red wine: "Are you so confident in yourself?"
Si Junzuo also took a sip of wine elegantly. He looked at Su Yan and said seriously, "Yan Yan, you are the girl I have waited for many years to meet. I will not give up easily."
"You've been waiting for many years?" Su Yan looked back at him, her hand holding the wine glass slightly tightened. "You haven't been in a relationship all these years?"
Si Junzuo shook his head truthfully: "No."
When he was nineteen, he was hypnotized and lost all his memories about Su Yan.
Over the years, Si Junzuo has met many girls.
There are many who are so outstanding that they match him in every aspect.
But he really didn't feel anything at all.
He didn't tell anyone either - he often felt empty inside.
It's like I've lost something.
It was not until Su Yan showed up and he learned that he had been hypnotized that he realized what he had forgotten.
When he met Su Yan again seven years later, his heart inexplicably beat.
He couldn't control himself.
When you like someone, the feeling will not change even if you haven’t seen them for many years.
So when he saw Su Yan again, he still felt moved.
So, in the hotel restaurant, Su Yan asked him a lot of questions, and he, who was always rigorous and paid attention to privacy protection, answered them one by one.
"Oh." Su Yan nodded casually.
She leaned back in her chair, her posture lazy.
Si Junzuo looked at Su Yan with a smile: "Miss Yan, can I pursue you?"
Su Yan looked at him quietly.
Seven years.
Si Junzuo's facial features were more handsome and firm than before. His narrow eyes hidden behind the gold-rimmed glasses were not only shrewd but also cunning like a fox.
He has matured a lot.
Once upon a time, she felt very relaxed and comfortable when she was with Si Junzuo.
Moreover, Si Junzuo always gave her a feeling of security.
Before, she didn't understand why.
Later, she understood.
Su Yan didn't answer immediately. She was silent for a while and said, "What if I say no?"
Is he still planning to lock her up like before?
Si Junzuo didn't expect Su Yan to refuse so quickly.
He adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses: "Miss Yan, are my standards for choosing a partner very different from yours?"
Su Yan was silent.
Si Junzuo added: "Tell me, what is your standard? I should be able to do it if I work hard."
Su Yan: "This time, when I rejected you, is this your reaction?"
Si Junzuo grasped the key point: "Have you rejected me before?"
Su Yan: “I refused.”
Si Junzuo was curious: "What was my reaction at that time?"
Su Yan just pulled the corner of her lip slightly, without saying a word.
Si Junzuo frowned slightly.
What else happened between them?
Both his fourth and third brothers told him that he and Su Yan had a very good relationship. Not only were they roommates in school, but they also lived together at The Bund during holidays. They even raised a large white tiger together...
What went wrong that made Su Yan hate him?
Seeing Su Yan's silence, Si Junzuo said sincerely, "Yan Yan, I don't remember anything about what happened before. I'm really sorry. Can you give me another chance?"
Su Yan's eyes slowly swept across the layout of the western restaurant. It could be seen that it was decorated with great care.
Roses are beautiful.
Her gaze finally fell on Si Junzuo's face, and she stood up: "Fifth brother, thank you for your hospitality tonight. It's late, I want to go home."
"You, what did you call me?" Si Junzuo opened his eyes wide in surprise.
She actually called him Fifth Brother.
So, they already had a close relationship.
How far have they developed?
Su Yan raised the corner of her lips: "Fifth brother, haven't I always called you that?"
Hearing this, Si Junzuo also laughed: "Really? Sorry, I don't even remember."
He liked it when she called him that.
In an instant, the relationship between them became much closer.
Su Yan didn't say anything else, picked up her bag and left her seat.
It is indeed late now.
It's time for her to go home.
Si Junzuo quickly followed, keeping a polite distance from Su Yan: "Yan Yan, let me take you home."
Su Yan walked out slowly: "My home is far away."
The refusal was very tactful.
"How far is it?" Si Junzuo asked curiously.
Su Yan said, "I live on an island."
"Island?" Si Junzuo was a little surprised.
He had heard of the island not far from Jiangcheng.
I heard it's a private island.
In the past few years, it was not open to the public.
It has now become a tourist check-in spot.
Su Yan nodded and paused: "I have to drive to the dock and then take the cruise home."
Si Junzuo: "I'll take you there."
Su Yan: "It's too troublesome."
Si Junzuo insisted, "Yan Yan, it's too late. I'm worried about a girl going home by car and boat. I'll take you there."
Su Yan thought for a moment and asked, "Will you take me to the dock?"
Si Junzuo smiled: "Okay."
It would be good to spend more time together as a couple.
The two went to the parking lot together.
Take Si Junzuo's car.
Si Junzuo was still driving a Mercedes-Benz, but it was no longer the same one as before.
He gentlemanly helped Su Yan open the passenger door.
"Thank you." Su Yan sat on it.
Her eyes moved around, observing the furnishings in the car.
It's very simple, there are almost no personal belongings, and you can't even tell the owner's preferences.
The car still had the familiar lemon scent.
Su Yan was casually comparing when her vision was suddenly obstructed.
She raised her eyes and saw Si Junzuo's overly clear jaw line.
Half of Si Junzuo's body was in front of her. Su Yan subconsciously pressed her back against the seat of the chair. She could feel her heartbeat slightly quickening.
Si Junzuo quickly helped Su Yan pull the seat belt over and fasten it.
Su Yan forgot.
Si Junzuo sat down, his eyes fell on Su Yan's face. His Adam's apple rolled around, and he said in a low voice: "Yan Yan, you... smell so good."
Su Yan: “…”
He had said this more than once.
I didn't expect that after not seeing him for seven years, he still said the same thing.
But Su Yan didn't wear any perfume.
Si Junzuo adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and said, "Sorry, that might be a little abrupt."
Su Yan's hand grabbed the seat belt: "Drive, it's late."
Si Junzuo started the car.
Su Yan leaned back in the chair, closed her eyes, and breathed in the familiar scent of lemon.
A familiar, reassuring smell.
Si Junzuo glanced at her sideways while driving: "Do you need to adjust the seat? The passenger seat can be folded down completely."
"No need." Su Yan said with her eyes closed.
Si Junzuo asked again: "What about the temperature of the air conditioner? Do you feel cold?"
Su Yan then opened her eyes and looked at him.
Si Junzuo just turned around and looked at him.
The two people's eyes met in the air.
Su Yan's eyes were full of mystery.
Si Junzuo's eyes were filled with concern and doubt.
But Si Junzuo quickly looked away.
Because he was driving.
His main focus had to be on the road.
Su Yan said: "The temperature is okay, I want to sleep for a while, please don't disturb me."
"Okay." Si Junzuo turned off the very light background music.
The black car was driving at a constant speed on the street.
Si Junzuo would turn his head to look at Su Yan from time to time. Su Yan seemed to be really asleep. Every time Si Junzuo looked at her, the corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up.
For the past seven years, he has felt empty inside.
At this moment, he felt very fulfilled.
His heart is filled with the girl beside him.
It turned out that just driving her home could make him feel extremely happy.
He had never been so happy in the past seven years.
An irrepressible joy.
Si Junzuo drives the car.
Su Yan closed her eyes and faced the car window.
The carriage was very quiet, so quiet that one could hear the two people breathing.
During these seven years, Su Yan spent most of his time in the laboratory and might meet Fu Yanlin, Xie Yuhan and others several times a year.
She puts all her energy into research.
At this moment, she was also able to relax for a rare moment.
Su Yan thought she wouldn't fall asleep, but she did.
Si Junzuo parked the car at the dock.
He called out tentatively, "Yan Yan?"
Su Yan didn't react.
Si Junzuo stared at the car window.
The girl's sleeping face was reflected on the glass.
The girl's facial features are delicate and beautiful. When she is a boy, this face has a bit of femininity, and when she is a girl, it has a bit of heroism. It is a flawless face.
Si Junzuo just stared at his reflection in the car window, and his heart couldn't help but beat.
This is the girl he has been looking for.
He met so many people, but there was never a girl who, after just a few meetings, he couldn't help but be moved again and again.
Si Junzuo almost wanted time to stop. He just stared at Su Yan's sleeping face silently, and he felt extremely satisfied.
But, it's already past nine o'clock in the evening.
Su Yan still has to take a boat back to the island.
By the time she got home, it was already very late.
Si Junzuo shouted again.
However, Su Yan still did not respond.
She was sleeping soundly.
"Yan Yan, wake up."
Si Junzuo approached Su Yan. He raised his hand, thought for a moment, and then placed his palm on Su Yan's shoulder, shaking her gently. "Yan Yan, we're here."
Su Yan suddenly woke up and grabbed Si Junzuo's hand, clenching her fingers almost subconsciously.
She is very strong.
"Ugh." Si Junzuo groaned in pain, his brows unconsciously frowned because of the pain.
When she saw the person in front of her, Su Yan finally came to her senses. She quickly let go of his hand and said, "Sorry, Fifth Brother, are you okay?"
Si Junzuo shook his hands, a helpless expression on his face: "I'm fine."
Su Yan added, "I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you."
Si Junzuo shook his head slightly: "I didn't expect you to be so strong."
The pain at that moment was almost heart-wrenching.
Su Yan: "I only used 30% of my strength."
Si Junzuo: “…”
Is he too 'weak'?
Su Yan turned her head and looked out the window, saying, "We've arrived at the dock."
Si Junzuo nodded: "Yeah, it's been a while."
Su Yan unbuckled her seatbelt and said, "Fifth brother, thank you for bringing me back."
Si Junzuo: "I'm happy to help."
Su Yan nodded slightly, opened the car door, and was about to leave, but Si Junzuo called her again: "Yan Yan."
Su Yan turned around: "Fifth brother?"
Si Junzuo said, "You already call me Fifth Brother. If I continue to call you by your full name, wouldn't that be too strange? How about I call you Yanyan?"
Su Yan thought about it and nodded: "Okay."
Si Junzuo smiled: "Yanyan, can I ask you out tomorrow night?"
Su Yan shook her head: "Not tomorrow night."
Si Junzuo: "Do you have an appointment or..."
"I have an appointment." Su Yan interrupted him, "I'm going to attend my friend's mother's birthday dinner."
Si Junzuo smiled: "Then can I make a reservation for the night after tomorrow?"
Su Yan: "Fifth brother, your law firm is in Jiangcheng. You must be too tired running back and forth like this, right?"
The smile on Si Junzuo's face grew even wider: "Yanyan, so, you are concerned about me, right?"
Su Yan said ambiguously: "If you think so."
Si Junzuo: "Then I'll take it as you caring about me."
Su Yan just smiled and said nothing.
Si Junzuo stared at the beautiful smile on her face and said, "Yanyan, I can feel that you are not opposed to me pursuing you, right?"
Su Yan held the car door tightly: "Fifth brother, it's late, I want to go home."
"Okay," Si Junzuo nodded. "By the way, Yanyan, I forgot to tell you that I also opened a law firm in South City, so you don't have to worry about me running around."
Su Yan was a little surprised: "When?"
Si Junzuo said, "I decided this a few days after I met you. After more than a month, the preparations are almost complete. The law firm is located in the office building across from your company."
Su Yan: “…”
Suyan originally decided to locate the company's office building there because it was in the suburbs and the price was cheap.
Seven years have passed and that area has developed.
There is a lot of traffic nowadays.
It must have taken a lot of effort for Si Junzuo to open the law firm within a month.
Si Junzuo waved his hand: "Yanyan, can we exchange contact information?"
"Okay." Su Yan left him her cell phone number and left with her bag.
Si Junzuo watched Su Yan board the ship.
Just before the ship was about to leave, Si Junzuo jumped onto the boat.
He bought a new boat ticket.
Su Yan stood on the deck on the second floor and saw Si Junzuo's actions clearly.
What is he doing?
The old problem comes back again?
Su Yan stood quietly on the deck, not moving.
Last time, it can be written off.
If there is a next time, then there will be no future for her and Si Junzuo.
The reason why she didn't express her feelings to Si Junzuo immediately was because she wanted to see if he was still as paranoid as before.
The sea breeze lifted Su Yan's shoulder-length hair, revealing her cold face.
However, after Si Junzuo got on the boat, he just found a seat and sat down.
He ordered a drink and just sat there quietly.
With his outstanding appearance and temperament, young girls soon came forward to chat with him, but they were all rejected by Si Junzuo in a distant manner.
Si Junzuo was holding his mobile phone and sending a WeChat friend request to Su Yan.
Su Yan stood on the second floor and found a good angle.
She could clearly see Si Junzuo's movements, but Si Junzuo could not see her.
She kept staring at Si Junzuo and ignored her cell phone ringing.
Si Junzuo sent her another message.
Su Yan naturally ignored it.
Si Junzuo just held the phone, waiting for Su Yan's reply.
