Chapter 293 Sense of Crisis
When Yan Chengyu came out, Qu Jianhang said to him, "A friend of mine has returned from abroad and would like to have dinner together."
Yan Chengyu wiped his hair with one hand and hummed in agreement: "Go ahead."
"We'll all go."
Yan Chengyu then looked at her: "I want to go too?"
Although the two got married and Qu Jianhang met several of her important friends, she had so many friends that she had never met most of them before.
Yan Chengyu asked, "A very good friend?"
Qu Jianhang said, "He was doing well when he was young, but he went abroad and we haven't seen each other for years."
“Then I might…” Yan Chengyu took out his phone and looked at it: “I might not have time until the night after tomorrow.”
Qu Jianhang said, "Sure, I'll talk to him."
Yan Chengyu then asked, "He hasn't returned to China all these years? You haven't been in contact with him at all?"
Qu Jianhang didn't intend to hide it from him and said directly, "Back then, when he pursued me, I was almost smitten. But then something happened, and he went abroad."
Upon hearing this, Yan Chengyu couldn't sit still any longer: "You're tempted?"
When Qu Jianhang was young, Yan Chengyu, the man who had captured Qu Jianhang's heart, immediately felt threatened.
Qu Jianhang said, "Well, he was a good catch and pursued me very hard. At the time, I thought I'd give it a try. I wouldn't say I was smitten, but I just felt we were a good match."
Yan Chengyu had been pursuing Qu Jianhang for so long, he knew all too well how high her standards were.
If a man can be described as having good conditions and being a good match, he must be very outstanding.
Now he can understand the sense of crisis Pei Muye was talking about.
"Then why did you contact each other again?" he asked. "Haven't you been in touch for so many years? And you haven't changed your contact information?"
Sensing the jealousy in his voice, Qu Jianhang smiled and said, "Don't overthink it. I don't know where he got my phone number from. He just called me. But we have a lot of mutual friends, so it's not surprising that he got my number."
"You have many mutual friends, but you haven't been in contact for so many years and don't know anything about each other?"
Qu Jianhang said, "The incident back then was quite unpleasant, so no one mentions it to me."
"So, what happened back then?"
Qu Jianhang said, "Back then, someone plotted against him, causing him to have a relationship with a woman. When he was pursuing me, that woman came to our door, already pregnant. After that, they were pressured by their families to go abroad, and they've been there ever since."
"So, if that incident hadn't happened back then, you would be with him?"
Qu Jianhang glanced at him: "There are no 'what ifs' in this world. Isn't that what you always tell me?"
Yan Chengyu remained silent, sitting on the edge of the bed with a cold expression.
Qu Jianhang didn't even need to guess; he knew he was angry.
She sat down next to him and asked, "What's wrong? Don't you want to go eat?"
Yan Chengyu said, "Since you haven't been in contact for so many years, there's no need for us to meet again."
"He called and asked to meet, and said he wanted to see you, so I couldn't very well refuse, could I?"
"Want to see me? I think he has ulterior motives." Yan Chengyu said, "I don't see just anyone."
Qu Jianhang smiled and said, "Yes, who is Secretary Yan? He is high and mighty, unlike us ordinary people. Of course, he doesn't meet just anyone."
"Why are you being sarcastic with me?" Yan Chengyu was genuinely angry. "I don't want to see him, so what?"
After he finished speaking, he added, "No, I just don't want you to see him."
"Weren't you supposed to be quite magnanimous?" Qu Jianhang said, "Who said that before that I'm not jealous anymore? Besides, he and I are already in the past... no, we don't even have a past, I didn't even accept his advances."
"But you just said you're interested."
Qu Jianhang slapped him angrily: "I explained, it's not that I'm attracted to you, it's that we're a good match."
But Yan Chengyu was still very angry.
The words "moved" and "heart-stirring" are so beautiful, yet Qu Jianhang never uttered those two words to him.
Why should such a beautiful word be given to another man?
"That won't work either."
"Yan Chengyu, you really are..." Qu Jianhang said helplessly, "Forget it, if you don't want to go, I'll go see him myself."
"You're not allowed to go either!"
"I already promised them."
"Do you want to see him? Aren't you curious about what the person who made your heart flutter back then looks like now?"
Qu Jianhang looked at him and said, "What you're doing is a bit unreasonable."
Yan Chengyu was so angry that he didn't want to speak.
Qu Jianhang turned his face to make him look at him: "Why are you being so jealous? Let's go together. He's bringing his wife and kids. It's just the two families meeting."
"What's the point of seeing each other? We haven't seen each other for so many years. Can't we just continue living our own lives?"
Qu Jianhang could only say, "We'll just meet once and that's it. We won't contact each other again."
Has he added you as a friend?
"No, I just made a phone call."
"No more additions allowed!"
"Okay, no extra." Qu Jianhang smiled at him. "Still angry?"
"It's just a meal." Yan Chengyu made the final decision: "No further contact is allowed."
"good."
Qu Jianhang had originally planned it that way too.
We haven't been in touch for so many years, and any feelings we had before have long since vanished.
Besides, that affection was just friendship.
She really misspoke the word "moved"; it was just something she said offhand.
It was already past midnight when she realized the man was jealous over that word.
The man's thrusts were still very powerful.
Qu Jianhang couldn't help but remind him, "You have a meeting early tomorrow morning..."
"Don't worry," Yan Chengyu said in a low voice, "You should worry about yourself instead."
Qu Jianhang's back and legs ached, and her voice was weak: "Yan Chengyu, are you crazy..."
It was even crazier than the day they got their marriage certificate.
"Have you ever had feelings for me? Hmm? Hmm? Hmm?"
He would ask a question, and then his movements would become more forceful.
Qu Jianhang belatedly realized that he was jealous.
Honestly, apart from Lin Xiyin's father, Qu Jianhang has only ever been interested in Yan Chengyu.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have given him the chance to sleep in her bed.
They're both married, and he's still asking such a childish question.
But he wouldn't stop until she answered, each time harder than the last.
Qu Jianhang had no idea where his strength came from.
Her voice was broken: "Yes, yes..."
What is it?
"I'm... tempted..."
"To whom?"
"To you!"
"when?"
Qu Jianhang wanted to glare at him, but his eyes were red and he had no intimidating power at all.
She wanted to kick him, but he held her legs up and wrapped them around his waist, so she had no chance to kick him.
"Hmm, when?"
Yan Chengyu persisted relentlessly.
Qu Jianhang could only close his eyes and tell the truth: "The day before we got together..."
The day before we got together.
Yan Chengyu was pulled into his memories.
At that time, he had been pursuing Qu Jianhang for a long time.
Nothing major happened the day before the two slept together.
But as long as he was with Qu Jianhang, he remembered everything very clearly.
