Chapter 613 She looks so young, how could CEO Qi bring himself to do it?
"Yes, I can't wait." Qi Yue looked at Shen Anning, his eyes filled with undisguised doting affection.
Shen Anning gave an awkward twitch of her lips. "Qi Yue, there's something I haven't told you yet."
Qi Yue watched Shen Anning grow up from a young age, so he understands her well.
Her reaction has been very abnormal from the moment she spoke until now.
He was so perceptive that he naturally realized Shen Anning had another purpose in coming to see him.
Even before Shen Anning could speak, Qi Yue had already guessed it.
Qi Yue pursed his lips and sighed almost imperceptibly, "You want to tell me that you didn't apply to Peking University, right?"
Chen Anning's breath hitched.
After a moment, she nodded.
Qi Yue couldn't quite describe his feelings, but he just chuckled softly, "If it's not Peking University, then it can only be Beijing University."
Shen Anning was surprised, "You already knew?"
"No, not at all." Qi Yue said helplessly, "It's just that you don't like Peking University, so it's only Peking University left."
Shen Anning felt guilty, but she still wanted to make things clear.
"This is a goal I set for myself back in junior high, Qi Yue. I didn't mean to hide it from you. I just never imagined we'd be together so soon when I was filling out college applications..."
"Hmm?" Qi Yue frowned, picking out the key point in her words, "So you think we won't be together, that's why you chose Peking University?"
“It’s not like that…” Shen Anning frowned slightly, her tone serious. “I think whether we date or not doesn’t conflict with my going to Peking University, because I’ll still come back to Beicheng after graduation. It’s not like I’ll be in Beijing for the rest of my life.”
"Four years." Qi Yue stared into Shen Anning's eyes. "To be honest, I'm not very at ease about you going to university in Beijing all by yourself."
Um?
Shen Anning hesitated for a moment, then blinked.
"Is that what you're worried about?" Shen Anning breathed a sigh of relief. "Then don't worry, I'll take good care of myself."
Qi Yue felt a little jealous. "This is the first time you've ever been so far from home. Are your brother and Uncle Fu really at ease?"
“They’re very reassured!” Shen Anning laughed. “They’re very supportive of me!”
Upon hearing this, Qi Yue pursed his lips and remained silent.
In fact, he knew very well that going to Peking University was the best choice for Shen Anning.
She is very smart and determined to become a female lawyer, and has been working towards this goal since junior high school.
Now that she has been admitted to Peking University as she wished, he should be happy for her, both as her boyfriend and as the older brother who has watched her grow up.
However, he had had beautiful fantasies, and now that he knew she was going to Peking University, he couldn't help but feel disappointed.
But he didn't want his own selfish desires to affect the young girl.
It's just a four-year long-distance relationship. At worst, he can make time to fly to Peking University to see her once he's established himself at the company.
Qi Yue took a deep breath and quickly calmed herself down.
"Shouldn't we celebrate?" He put aside all his disappointment and looked at Shen Anning with a smile. "I don't have work this afternoon. I'll take you out to have some fun, as a way of celebrating your admission to Peking University, okay?"
Shen Anning was stunned.
She was still thinking about how to coax Qi Yue when she didn't expect him to accept it so quickly.
Isn't this man's self-regulation ability a bit too strong?
She stared at Qi Yue, "Qi Yue, are you really not angry?"
"Why should I be angry that you got into Peking University?" Qi Yue pinched her nose. "Am I the kind of unreasonable boyfriend in your heart?"
Shen Anning touched her nose and giggled, "Of course not! Our July brother is the best and most handsome boyfriend in the world!"
She reached out and took Qi Yue's arm, her worries completely dispelled. In a good mood, she unconsciously spoke in a sweet, soft voice.
It was so sweet it warmed Qi Yue's heart.
Young men, in the prime of their lives, are most susceptible to being provoked.
Shen Anning took his arm and leaned closer, a delicate fragrance unique to young girls filling her nostrils.
He watched as Shen An's small mouth opened and closed, his Adam's apple bobbing repeatedly.
I really want to taste what this little mouth tastes like...
However, reason was reminding him.
They'd only been dating for a month, so he couldn't act impulsively and scare the girl away.
Qi Yue gently pushed Shen Anning's hand away, stood up, cleared his throat, and said, "I'm going to the restroom, and then we'll go out for lunch."
Shen Anning didn't notice the man's unusual behavior and nodded with a sweet smile, "Okay!"
...
Qi Yue entered the break room of the president's office.
In the bathroom, he splashed cold water on his face.
He looked at his disheveled appearance through the mirror.
He closed his eyes helplessly.
He let out a long sigh.
Four years, let's just wait and see!
...
When Qi Yue led Shen Anning out of the office, Lin Yun was sitting at her workstation.
She looked up, her gaze sweeping over the hand Qi Yue was holding Shen Anning's, before calmly lowering her head to continue her work.
It's just that the fingers tapping on the keyboard become messy, and there seems to be some lag.
The screen was filled with gibberish.
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the well-matched couple gradually disappear into the distance, and I could hear the girl's clear voice beside me—
"Qi Yue, I want to go to that newly developed beach in the suburbs this afternoon. I saw online that a new couples-themed hotel has opened there, and it has many..."
"Is that Mr. Qi's girlfriend? She looks so young!"
People in the secretariat began to whisper among themselves:
"They have such great personalities, they look so good together. Even though they're just a young couple holding hands, I'm blushing!"
"I just heard a girl say she wanted to go to a love hotel. Oh my god, is it the kind I'm thinking of? But the girl looks so young, how can Mr. Qi bring himself to do it?"
“Even if she’s young, she must be an adult by now!” A female secretary looked at Lin Yun. “Lin Yun, aren’t you and President Qi alumni? Have you heard about President Qi’s girlfriend?”
Lin Yun was suddenly called out, and her thoughts returned to her. She looked at the female secretary who had asked her the question and smiled somewhat awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I'm not really sure."
"I see. But it's normal that you don't know. I heard that our Xiao Qi is a famously aloof campus heartthrob. Almost every month at Peking University, girls confess to him, but he always rejects them decisively. Now it seems that he's keeping himself pure for his girlfriend!"
"The person who can be with CEO Qi and enter and leave the company so openly must be a rich young lady from a similar social class. Maybe their parents even know each other!"
"So they're childhood sweethearts? If that's true, then I'm definitely shipping them!"
"You know what, I suddenly have a feeling that our young CEO Qi might get married young!"
"You could sense that?!"
"Did you see the way Young Master Qi looked at that girl just now? He practically glued his eyes to her! But why does that girl look so familiar? Which rich family's daughter is she?"
"Don't you know how to run away? There are so many rich young ladies in Beicheng, but quite a few of them are low-key. In fact, the truly smart and cultured daughters of wealthy families are all very low-key these days."
"Is it because you're afraid of attracting jealousy and being schemed against? So you simply keep it hidden and secretly pamper yourself!"
"That's right. That girl looks like she was raised in a wealthy family. She's beautiful and natural, but her voice is sweet and gentle. She seems very well protected by her family and has a pure heart..."
The surrounding chatter echoed in her ears, but Lin Yun couldn't get a word in edgewise. She could only try to maintain a smile and nod.
Where no one could see, her hand, clutching the hem of her clothes, showed prominent veins on the back of her hand and white knuckles.
