Chapter 218 How Are You Going to Compensate Me for a Fiancee?
The man had a cigarette in his mouth and asked the girl if she could light it.
Jiang Zhiyue was stunned for a moment, and Chu Junyue threw the lighter to her and asked her to come over.
The distance was maintained just right, with Jiang Zhiyue and Chu Junyue separated by a table, and both sides were in independent spaces.
She took it, and when the lighter touched her hand, she could still feel the warmth from the man's fingertips.
"come over."
Chu Junyue raised his eyes coldly, "I'm considering continuing to listen to you."
The empty carriage was extremely quiet, with wind and rain swaying outside the window.
Jiang Zhiyue could hear her own breathing.
The man's eyes were burning, and a gleam of sharpness flashed across his sharp eyes.
"You don't even have this much sincerity?"
He lost interest and got up and left.
"Master Chu, please wait a minute." Jiang Zhiyue finally convinced him that he was showing signs of loosening up and did not want to miss the opportunity.
It's just lighting a cigarette. It's not like I haven't done this before.
She walked quickly to the man, bent down slightly, pressed the switch lightly, and with a "click", the flame lit up instantly.
Chu Junyue leaned back in the soft seat, his cold eyelids slightly raised. The girl leaned over, her black hair draped over her shoulders brushed across his cold cheek, and she held the lighter close to the man's cigarette butt.
The flame is so bright that it burns people.
Smoke rises up slowly.
Chu Junyue's eyes were sharp and fierce. Jiang Zhiyue couldn't avoid his sight. The moment she got close to him, she smelled the strong scent of male hormones on him, mixed with the rich smell of tobacco.
Watching the flame burning the cigarette butt, Jiang Zhiyue breathed a sigh of relief for some reason. Just as she was about to return the lighter to the man, she saw his cold and sharp gaze still on her face. Their eyes met, and he grabbed her wrist with his big hand and pulled her forward fiercely.
She almost fell into the man's arms, but Chu Junyue grabbed her hand and pressed the bronze lighter again. The flame lit up and the cigarette butt burned more vigorously.
He took a deep breath, narrowed his eyes slightly, and exhaled a puff of smoke with satisfaction.
Chu Junyue slowly let go of the girl and said, "You continue."
After going through so much, Jiang Zhiyue's psychological quality has improved a lot. She ignored the little episode of the man holding her wrist and rubbing his fingertips between her wrist bones, and said: "The current situation of the three states is a great opportunity for Master Chu to inherit Mr. Chu's legacy. When people suffer from hardships, they will miss the grace they once received."
“Master Chu, you will find that people have never forgotten Mr. Chu, but some people are afraid of him and afraid of him. They dare not let people remember him, erase everything he did, and slander him.”
"Master Chu, if you don't think about yourself, don't you want to clear your father's name? If you keep retreating, aren't you afraid that your loved ones will follow in Mr. Chu's footsteps?"
By the end of her speech, beads of sweat appeared on the girl's cheeks and forehead, but the light was dim and it was hard to see clearly.
The hands hanging at his sides were clenched into fists.
She was not bringing up a topic that Chu Junyue hated, she was simply dancing in Chu Junyue's minefield, almost stepping on the red line in his heart.
Jiang Zhiyue didn't dare to look at him. The man's gaze was fixed on her and never moved. The gloomy feeling of impending storm was even more intense.
The cigarette burned wildly in his hand, and the ashes fell to the ground. It was so quiet that even the sound of a speck of dust could be heard.
It was as if something was burning wildly in those dark eyes.
Jiang Zhiyue took a deep breath and looked into his eyes. The ferocity in his eyes almost pierced through her.
Father Chu is the faith in Chu Junyue's heart.
I admire my father, but I have never thought about becoming him or surpassing him.
Jiang Zhiyue knew how heavy the weight of those words was. If she didn't say it well, Chu Junyue's card would be useless. If Chu Junyue held a grudge against her, her situation would be worse than it was now.
But when she looked at Chu Junyue's eyes, she knew she was right, so she bent slightly and moved closer.
The scarlet color on her fingertips dimmed for a moment, and Jiang Zhiyue lightly pressed the switch, and the flame touched the man's cigarette butt again.
"Master Chu, do you think what I said is right?" She said softly.
Chu Junyue grabbed the girl's wrist tightly, with enough force to crush her, and pulled it down, causing the girl to sit on his lap.
Jiang Zhiyue's whole body tensed up, and Chu Junyue smiled, "You dare to say that."
.....
Of course Jiang Zhiyue dared to say it.
She has lived safely to this day just by relying on her big mouth and fooling people around.
She was right again.
Jiang Zhiyue saw the faint curve at the corner of the man's mouth. Chu Junyue was not angry, but smiled indifferently.
Perhaps he had not heard anyone mention the word "father" for a long time. People in the three states had long forgotten his father. The Chu family wanted to erase his father, and the upper class also wanted to remove his father from the name.
What Chu Junyue saw was that everything his father did was meaningless. Even if he sacrificed his life, he did not change anything. How could the people who received his help remember him?
Most people in the world are ignorant, evil is in power, and good cannot prevail over evil.
My father insisted on his ideals and left behind an orphan and a widow.
All he saw was his mother's struggle. When she was being bullied, no one supported her. His grandfather warned him to be patient, to accept his fate, and not to try to challenge the unshakable rules, otherwise he would be abandoned by the rules.
He has been forbearing.
He didn't want to get involved in the dispute, he just wanted to wipe away his mother's tears and wish his family peace and health.
But he forgot his father's instructions.
After so many years, there are still people who tell him to clear his father's name and carry on his father's legacy.
Seems to understand his father better than he does.
Chu Junyue found it unbelievable.
How dare she do that? Where did she get the courage?
She was so small that Jiang Zhiyue's whole body would tense up at the slightest touch.
Chu Junyue saw the red marks on the girl's neck again and asked, "Was it done by Lin Jun?" he asked with certainty.
Jiang Zhiyue nodded.
Chu Junyue's eyes darkened. He knew that she had gone to great lengths to say so much just to turn him against the Lin family. He did not deny that he was a little shaken at that moment.
“It seems like your experience in the slums is unique,” he said.
Jiang Zhiyue nodded again.
Chu Junyue, "You might as well study international politics instead."
Jiang Zhiyue listened to the man's teasing and shook her head.
She was well-behaved and quiet. Chu Junyue hugged her, holding her tightly with his big hands, and asked, "How are you going to compensate me for a fiancée?"
Jiang Zhiyue raised her head and stared at him in disbelief.
Chu Junyue stared into her eyes and said, "I said, if you want to convince me, you have to work harder."
Jiang Zhiyue thought she had made it very clear, so she tactfully informed Chu Junche of his fate.
Chu Junyue didn't seem to take those words to heart at all. He stared at the girl's tightly pursed, cherry-pink lips again.
The man moved his thin lips closer, and Jiang Zhiyue was about to hide, but Chu Junyue held the back of her head with his hand, leaving her nowhere to escape.
His lips brushed against hers, touching the corner of her mouth.
The warm breath was overwhelming.
Jiang Zhiyue opened her eyes wide.
At this moment, the door curtain opened.
Not far away, a black figure could see their every move.
