Chapter 100 Please, let me go.
The once bustling venue fell silent briefly as everyone's gaze, following Madam Rong's, fell upon the young man in the center of the crowd, who was slightly bowing his head and seemed somewhat uneasy.
What's even more incomprehensible is that the moment Madam Rong saw him, she was completely stunned, staring at him without moving, as if she wanted to see right through him.
While stunned, Madam Rong couldn't help but murmur, "This is impossible..."
While everyone was puzzled, a young woman standing beside Madam Rong gently nudged her and asked, "Madam, what...what's wrong?"
Unfortunately, Madam Rong could not hear anything at this moment. Her world seemed to have suddenly become quiet. Her eyes were somewhat unfocused as she stared blankly at the young man whose clothes had been splashed with red wine.
She opened her mouth as if to say something, but no words came out.
"What exactly happened?" Everyone was bewildered and couldn't help but start discussing it amongst themselves. What was most puzzling was Madam Rong's attitude. She maintained a faint smile and a gentle demeanor towards everyone.
Who knew that at this moment she would suddenly lose her composure, staring at the unfamiliar young man as if bewitched. The crowd, not knowing what was going on, also glanced at him a few times. Many people could not see clearly, only a vague outline, but thought he was quite handsome.
Surely Madam Rong wouldn't be so old as to fall in love with a young man at first sight and have her heart flutter...
This idea was born in the minds of some people, who were inexplicably shocked, while the young man who was the protagonist was completely unaware of it. He seemed to have encountered something terrible, his face was pale, and his fingertips were trembling slightly.
Shen Jin felt his back was soaked with cold sweat. He didn't dare turn around to look at Yan Yu, and he didn't want to raise his head. He hoped that Yan Yu wouldn't recognize him...
Therefore, at this moment, because of Yan Yu's presence, he had no time to care about anything else, and he threw all those people's attention aside. Only one thought remained in his mind: escape!
If he could escape the first time, he can definitely do it a second time!
Just as Shen Jin's mind was in turmoil, his body trembling with fear, and he was trying to figure out how to avoid Yan Yu, Yan Yu stared blankly at his profile, his throat bobbing, and he called out hoarsely, "Shen Jin..."
The simple address made Shen Jin's already pale face turn even whiter, like a sheet of paper. He stiffly shook his head, his voice low and hoarse: "I...I'm not..."
Shen Jin suddenly pushed through the crowd, taking long, straight steps, intending to escape. But he had only taken a few steps when Yan Yu reacted quickly, grabbing his arm from behind and pleading, "Shen Jin! Don't go!"
"I...I already said I'm not, let go!" Shen Jin couldn't help but roar, his eyes were bloodshot, and he violently shook off Yan Yu's hand, his heart filled with fear.
He hadn't seen Yan Yu for a long time. Although Shen Jin would occasionally think of him and feel sad, he would try his best not to think about it most of the time. He wanted to live in the present and be happy with the people around him.
Especially after coming to this new city with Luo Zheng and Rong Lan, he thought deep down that the past could be quietly buried in his heart, and that it would be enough for each of them to live their own lives from now on.
But when he met Yan Yu again, he felt that it was all just his imagination, which made him feel deeply afraid and powerless.
Yan Yu was shocked to actually see him here. After the initial shock, he blurted out, "I know you're still angry! I'm sorry!"
Everyone present was dumbfounded, completely baffled. What was going on? It was supposed to be the young master of the Rong family's birthday party, but it seemed like it had turned into someone else's party. Was something wrong?
Madam Rong gradually snapped out of her daze, staring blankly at them, momentarily confused as to what was happening, while her gaze lingered on Shen Jin...
"I...I..." Shen Jin was stunned and at a loss, not expecting Yan Yu to apologize to him in front of so many people. He was especially afraid of the stares of everyone.
"I already said! I'm not!" Shen Jin suddenly roared, ignoring everything and pushing through the crowd as he took off running! Only one intense thought remained in his mind: escape! Get away from this person!
"Shen Jin!" Yan Yu's face turned pale when he saw Shen Jin escape. Afraid that he would never see him again if he escaped this time, he didn't care about his image and chased after him. "Don't run!"
When Madam Rong saw Shen Jin run away, she panicked for a moment and, just like Yan Yu, couldn't help but take off after him, calling out, "Wait!"
Everyone was completely dumbfounded, unable to figure out who that handsome young man was! Not only did he have to bow down and apologize to the high and mighty President Yan, but he was also being chased by the noble Madam Rong.
Someone couldn't help but ask, "Who is that? What happened?"
This was a question on everyone's mind, but at this moment, no one could obviously give them an answer.
"Madam Rong, be careful!" someone shouted, looking at Madam Rong who was trying to chase after the young man with great concern. "Someone of you should go and help her!"
Rong Lan, who had just finished greeting his other foreign friends, was unaware of what had happened. By the time he rushed over, he saw Shen Jin running quickly out of the venue.
Behind Shen Jin, Yan Yu chased after him frantically, and then his elegant and dignified mother also chased after him, carrying her grandson!
Rong Lan was completely stunned: "What the hell!"
"Mom! Stop running! Stop!" Rong Lan quickly pushed through the group of bewildered onlookers and chased after them, shouting to the other security guards, "What are you all standing there for?! Stop all three of them!"
As Rong Lan raised her voice and shouted, the security guards who had been stunned along with everyone else slowly reacted and rushed over to try to stop Shen Jin. At the same time, others tried to stop Yan Yu and Madam Rong.
Madam Rong was in poor health, so no one dared to be careless. Yan Yu, on the other hand, was strong and healthy. Several security guards tried to pull him back, but Yan Yu became so anxious that he almost kicked them to death: "Get out of the way! If he escapes, you're all dead!"
Perhaps he looked too frightening at this moment, and the security guards did not dare to make any rash moves. On the other side, Shen Jin, like a cat, bent down and slipped past the crowd, but was grabbed by the corner of his clothes.
"Let go!" Shen Jin roared angrily, forcefully pulling away the other person's hand. However, the other person held on tightly and wouldn't let go. He could only turn around and say fiercely, "Don't grab my clothes anymore! Let go of me!"
In the instant he turned around, Shen Jin didn't forget to glance at Yan Yu, wanting to know how far away he was. But when he looked over, he was startled to find that Yan Yu was already very close.
However, just as Shen Jin was about to turn around and run away again, he inadvertently saw the woman chasing after Yan Yu.
Just as the anxious Madam Rong was about to meet his gaze.
Shen Jin's pupils suddenly contracted, his heart skipped a beat, and he froze on the spot. His legs, which had been trying to escape quickly, seemed to be frozen.
"Shen Jin!" Yan Yu thought Shen Jin had stopped because of him, and felt a surge of excitement, realizing that he still held a certain place in Shen Jin's heart. He rushed over, "Shen Jin! I've been looking for you for so long! I know you care about me..."
Just as Yan Yu reached out to grab Shen Jin's hand, Shen Jin, who had been frozen in place like a block of wood, suddenly seemed to go mad. His eyes turned bloodshot, and he snapped out of his daze from Cong Rong's body, shouting, "Let go!"
Yan Yu was stunned by his outburst, feeling a pang of disappointment and hurt by his attitude, but he still managed to say, with feigned emotion, "Chen Jin, listen to me! I know you're still very angry! I—"
Who knew that she would violently shake off his hand, not even letting him finish speaking, and shove Yan Yu away with a slap, roaring with bloodshot eyes, "Get out of my way!"
Shen Jin felt like he was going crazy. He didn't know what was wrong with him, but at this moment he didn't want to see Yan Yu at all. His mind was in complete chaos, especially the moment he saw Madam Rong...
He couldn't help but wonder, who was he? Where did he come from? Why did he know nothing about his past?
A multitude of questions suddenly surfaced in his mind, making him feel more agitated than ever before. He didn't know how to calm down, so he cowardly wanted to run away, to escape from here...
Yan Yu was pushed hard and staggered back a few steps, somewhat unable to react. But Madam Rong behind him suddenly cried out, "You...you don't go! Let me...let me see you!"
The moment he heard that voice, Shen Jin's soul trembled. He clenched his fists tightly. He wanted to turn around and look at her, and he wanted to stop in his tracks, but for some reason, he couldn't.
He felt that everything was very distant from him, and he didn't even know who he was anymore. So he just wanted to escape, to leave this noisy place, and hide back in his own world.
Yan Yu panicked completely, his voice trembling slightly: "Shen Jin, wait for me! Let me finish what I have to say!"
"Let me finish speaking," a voice inside Shen Jin thought self-deprecatingly, "What's the point of listening to you now...?"
The venue descended into chaos, a delicate chase ensued, and Shen Jin escaped directly from the venue, with Yan Yu hot on his heels, unable to shake him off.
Shen Jin tried to run towards a crowded place, but Yan Yu chased after him closely. He tried to run to other streets, but Yan Yu still kept chasing him, calling his name from behind.
The wind was strong and a bit cold, and the sky was gloomy, as if it were about to rain.
Finally, Shen Jin's legs gave way, and he staggered and was about to fall, but he managed to steady himself by holding onto a nearby tree. His face was full of exhaustion, and he had an expression that was hard to tell whether he was crying or laughing.
"Shen Jin!" Yan Yu smiled slightly when he saw him stop, and also temporarily halted his frantic pursuit, letting out a soft breath. "I knew you wouldn't keep running! I've finally found you, Shen Jin, I..."
Before he could finish speaking, Shen Jin interrupted him with a smile, a smile both desolate and sorrowful. His body swayed slightly, and he murmured in a hoarse voice, "Let me go..."
Yan Yu's smile froze instantly, as if he doubted whether he had heard something wrong: "You said... what did you say?"
"Don't chase me anymore, I..." Shen Jin's face was pale, and sweat was still dripping down his forehead. He pursed his pale lips and lowered his eyes wearily. "I feel tired, don't chase me anymore..."
Shen Jin felt like his head was about to explode. He couldn't figure out what was going on. He wanted to squat down, hug his head, and scream his heart out, but he didn't know if he was too tired from running and didn't have any extra strength.
Aside from the fact that Yan Yu made him feel powerless, what exactly was Madam Rong to him...?
A gentle evening breeze blew by, and Chen Jin's body trembled slightly. As if he had lost his soul, he gently hugged himself, lowered his eyes sadly, and gave a self-deprecating laugh: "Who...am I, really?"
