Chapter 542 Paranoia
She moved her hands as usual, but was surprised to find that the cold feeling of being restrained on her wrist was no longer there.
Shen Pianpian paused, then slowly moved her arm, and moved her hand to rest on her stomach without any hindrance.
The handcuffs are off?
Shen Pianpian blinked and slowly looked at the man.
Cheng Zhiyuan looked at her face quietly, but when he met her gaze, he turned away and lowered his eyes, closed the book in his hand, and spoke slowly in a low voice,
"Shen Pianpian."
"I'm sorry."
Why?
The girl opened her eyes wide in surprise, staring at him, unable to react.
The man never looked up. From this angle, only half of his profile could be seen. His features were deep and handsome, but his skin color was paler than hers, as her body had not yet recovered.
His voice sounded normal, calm and emotionless.
"Yan Yi is not dead, Cui Mao and Shi Yi have both returned safely to the imperial capital..."
After a pause he continued,
"The girl you picked up, named Chuyang, was taken back by her family after seeing the news. They didn't have time to leave their contact information."
Shen Pianpian was stunned as she digested the news in her mind.
Did this tell her all the answers she wanted to know?
After finishing speaking, Cheng Zhiyuan was silent for a while and continued,
"This is New York. You can stay here until you fully recover, or you can return to the capital to rest. When you want to leave, call Secretary Liu and he will handle the paperwork for you."
The man put the book in his hand on the cabinet and stood up.
He is tall and graceful, handsome and upright.
He turned and left, still looking the almighty and noble Boss Cheng.
Shen Pianpian couldn't help but speak hoarsely,
"And you?"
The man paused.
Shen Pianxian continued,
"where are you going?"
After a long silence, Cheng Zhiyuan's cold, mechanical voice slowly rang out.
"Does it have anything to do with you?"
During the brief moment when Shen Pianpian was stunned, the man had already walked out of the bedroom and closed the door behind him.
There was a slight click.
Shen Pianpian suddenly woke up.
Something was fermenting deep in my heart, urging some strange and sour feelings.
Is he angry?
The girl slowly got up from the bed.
The white quilt fell, and she looked at her wrists with messy hair. Sure enough, the handcuffs were gone.
She threw off the quilt and got out of bed.
Her frostbitten limbs were still weak and powerless. She fell straight to the ground after taking only two steps. After a hissing sound, she finally stood up by holding on to the cabinet. Miss Shen decisively admitted her defeat and climbed back into bed.
She leaned against the headboard, gently moving her arms while looking around.
I couldn't see my cell phone anywhere.
The girl scratched her head and picked up the book the man had just been reading with great boredom.
Perhaps the man had been flipping through the pages for a long time, and Shen Pianpian turned to a page with a small crease.
Black fonts were scattered on the pages, and the coherent cursive English looked very beautiful, but in the dim light without sunlight, it looked blurry and had a sad tenderness.
[I thought you were something I had lost for a long time.]
Even if my memory fades and I become unconscious, I will only remember you.
It's like a child stubbornly believing that a stolen beloved toy will come back on its own.
Now you're back, but I forgot that this toy never belonged to me.
I'm just a crazy person with delusions.
And you are the luxury that I see in the window and drool over but never have.
Even though I have given you all my time and feelings, and am ready to continue doing so,
I still can’t get you. 】
Under the dim light, Shen Pianpian made a swallowing motion and then slowly closed the book.
On the gray cover, black words, like shadows in the corners, form the title of the book.
——The love of a delusional person.
