Chapter 16 Isn't that my brother? You guys ran into him?
In the coffee shop.
Qin Shuzhi was wearing a knitted long-sleeved cropped top, paired with high-waisted denim shorts, and a baseball cap. She was sitting casually in a booth by the glass.
From her vantage point, she could see Qi Yishan on a blind date with a man in an outdoor booth.
Qin Shuzhi had often cooperated in such matters.
She just needs to wait until Qi Yishan can't handle it anymore and sends her a message, then she'll go out, pretend to bump into her by chance, and find a reason to take her away naturally, thus ending the blind date.
She could then report back to her father.
Seeing the impatience on Qi Yishan's face, Qin Shuzhi knew that the blind date was about to end.
After waiting a few more minutes, she indeed received a message from Qi Yishan.
The content, however, is somewhat different from before.
【This is a bit tricky, and it's hard to get away. Wait here for me for a bit; I'll come back for you in fifteen minutes.】
After Qin Shuzhi finished reading the message and looked up, she saw Qi Yishan and the man leaving the coffee shop.
She smiled and replied, "Okay."
Qin Shuzhi put down her phone, leisurely stirred her coffee, and planned to enjoy it before leaving.
Two sets of footsteps came from the stairs on the second floor behind.
High heels and leather shoes.
She didn't pay attention and continued drinking her coffee until the footsteps stopped beside her.
"Shuzhi?"
An affected voice rang out, and Qin Shuzhi frowned slightly. She looked up and saw Zhou Siyan, feigning surprise, and Shen Yichen, with a composed expression, standing in front of her.
Shen Yichen looked her over, then pursed his lips and remained silent.
Zhou Siyan, who was holding his arm, also noticed Qin Shuzhi's outfit today.
Wearing sneakers, shorts, and a hat, he looked like he was sneakily stalking someone.
"Shuzhi, you, what are you doing..."
Zhou Siyan deliberately glanced around at herself and Shen Yichen, then looked at Qin Shuzhi and began to explain, "Don't misunderstand, Yichen just came with me to meet a friend today, it's not what you think, we're not on a date."
Qin Shuzhi looked at her as if she were an idiot. "Are you sick? Whether you're on a date or going to a hotel is none of my business."
They've followed us all this way, yet you're still stubbornly refusing to admit it and pretending not to care?
Zhou Siyan scoffed inwardly.
Shen Yichen's face turned ugly. He subconsciously pulled away from Zhou Siyan's arm and looked at Qin Shuzhi, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Zhou Siyan, who was feeling smug, lost her balance and staggered. Her face froze on the spot.
Seeing that Shen Yichen's gaze hadn't left Qin Shuzhi since he discovered her, she felt extremely jealous, but dared not show it.
Seeing that Qin Shuzhi had looked at him with disgust from the very beginning and then looked away as if he were invisible, Shen Yichen was extremely annoyed.
"Come with me."
He stepped forward, grabbed Qin Shuzhi's hand, and tried to lead her away.
The moment Qin Shuzhi's right hand was grabbed, she reacted drastically and shook him off.
“Hey, Mr. Shen, we’ve already broken up. If you touch me again, I’ll sue you for indecent assault.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Yichen's face darkened, but when he thought of Chen Jin mentioning that she had bought him a wedding ring, he laughed in anger.
"Break up? Ha, Qin Shuzhi, are you sure you want to break up with me?"
Qin Shuzhi looked up at him with a mocking gaze, "Now that everything has gone your way, stop pretending to be innocent after getting the better deal from me."
Shen Yichen frowned. "What did you say?"
"What did I say? Isn't this the result you wanted?" Qin Shuzhi felt utterly disgusted just looking at him now.
"Ever since Zhou Siyan returned to China, you've given me the cold shoulder time and time again, and you've been showing off your love for her in front of me time and time again. Isn't that just to force me to break up with you so that you can get back together with your ex?"
It's really tasteless of a person to force the woman to initiate a breakup when they clearly want to.
Shen Yichen's face flushed red and then turned pale from these words. He glared at them and said, "Nonsense! When did I force you to break up with me..."
"Alright!"
Qin Shuzhi raised her hand to interrupt him, "I've already granted your request, so let's stop acting, okay?"
As soon as she finished speaking, her phone rang. Qin Shuzhi picked it up and glanced at it. It was a message from Qi Yishan, saying that she was waiting for her outside.
Seeing this, Qin Shuzhi picked up her bag and left. After taking two steps, she stopped and turned to look at Shen Yichen.
"I remember saying when we broke up that I would pretend I didn't know you if we met again, and I wouldn't even need to say hello, so..."
She glanced at the two of them with disdain. "Don't treat me like part of your play anymore. It's disgusting to see you always hanging around in front of me whenever we meet."
Shen Yichen felt a sudden tightness in his chest when he saw the deep disgust in her eyes.
Before he could react, Qin Shuzhi had already turned and left.
Watching her walk out of the coffee shop without looking back, he hurriedly chased after her, ignoring Zhou Siyan's calls from behind.
"Xiao Zhi."
He caught up with Qin Shuzhi and grabbed her arm, pulling her back. "Stop it, okay? Yan Yan and I are just friends now. We've never had that kind of relationship..."
Whether you have a relationship with her or not is none of my business.
Qin Shuzhi forcefully shook off his hand. "Shen Yichen, I'm saying this one last time—"
She said, enunciating each word clearly, "The moment you chose to descend the mountain that night, it was over between us."
Looking into her fierce eyes, Shen Yichen's heart trembled violently. He opened his mouth, but his Adam's apple tightened so much that he couldn't make a sound.
Seeing Qi Yishan's car ahead, Qin Shuzhi ignored him and walked towards it.
After she got into the car, Qi Yishan looked at the people chasing after her and asked, "Isn't that my brother? You guys ran into him?"
"Okay, let's drive."
Qi Yishan glanced at her best friend, who was fastening her seatbelt with a cold expression, then at her jerk brother who was almost catching up to the car, said "Okay," and stepped on the gas, sending the car flying.
Shen Yichen watched the car drive away, and since his car was parked not far away, he immediately turned around and walked towards it.
"Yichen".
Zhou Siyan limped after him, but Shen Yichen didn't even glance at her. He simply said, "Call a car yourself," and walked past her, unlocking his car.
"oops."
A cry of pain came from behind. Shen Yichen, who was about to open the door and get into the car, turned around and saw Zhou Siyan lying on the ground, looking at him with tears in her eyes.
"It's alright, Yichen," she said understandingly. "You don't need to worry about me. You go and chase after Shuzhi. Don't let her be angry with you. I... I can go back by myself..."
Shen Yichen watched the red Ferrari, which had already merged into the main road and sped away, slammed the car door shut in frustration, and turned to walk to Zhou Siyan's side.
"I'll take you home first."
After saying that, he bent down and carried her into the car.
Zhou Siyan wrapped her arms around his neck, lowered her head, and a triumphant smile appeared on her lips.
Qin Shuzhi, go ahead and do whatever you want.
This man will belong to me again sooner or later.
It belongs to me alone.
