The plane landed at the airport, and Ye Xinning and Ye Xiaoxiao got off the plane together.
In the lobby, Ye Xiaoxiao was about to go get her luggage, and Ye Xinning was about to go with her when Wen Zhu's voice came from behind, "Miss Ye and President Chen can wait here. Miss Xiaoxiao and I will go get it."
"Okay, sis, just wait here for me, I'll be there soon."
After saying that, Ye Xiaoxiao left with Wenzhu.
Ye Xinning was left standing in the huge airport hall, somewhat bewildered.
“Sinking down.”
"Um?"
She stared intently at Shen Lin's acting, half-seriously and half-jokingly saying, "You didn't come to France with me, did you?"
She always felt that all of this was too much of a coincidence.
Shen Lin took a few steps forward and came to her side. Without saying a word, he raised his hand towards her, and Ye Xinning subconsciously took a step back.
Shen Lin's hand remained suspended in mid-air, as if time had stopped. After an unknown amount of time, Shen Lin lowered his hand and said in a low voice, "Your hair is messy."
Ye Xinning raised her hand and hurriedly tidied herself up.
Shen Lin looked away and began to answer her question, "The company's branch in France has run into some problems. I'm here for work, you can check if you don't believe me."
"real?"
"I told you, if you don't believe me, you can check it yourself."
Ye Xinning nodded slowly. So, it really wasn't because of her that I came to France; it was just a coincidence.
That's good.
Ye Xinning breathed a sigh of relief.
Ye Xiaoxiao quickly retrieved the luggage. "Sister, we've got all our things. Let's go."
Ye Xinning helped Ye Xiaoxiao with the load, but the luggage she had just picked up was snatched away by Shen Lin.
"Where do you live? I'll have my people take you there."
Ye Xinning refused without even thinking, "No need, we can go by ourselves, you can go and do your thing."
"Ye Xiaoxiao, where do you live?" Since Ye Xinning didn't answer, Shen Lin turned to ask Ye Xiaoxiao.
Ye Xiaoxiao told Wen Zhu which hotel they were staying at, and Wen Zhu said, "Oh, you're staying at that hotel too."
"Also?" Ye Xinning caught the key point of the sentence.
Wen Zhu smiled perfectly, "I also booked this hotel with President Shen. What a coincidence! I didn't expect to be with you all. Now, let's all go together."
"Let's go." Shen Lin left those two words and took the lead, walking forward.
Ye Xinning felt a throbbing pain in her temples. "Wenzhu."
"Yes, Miss Ye, please go ahead."
"You're really here for work? Are you on the same flight and staying at the same hotel as us?"
“Ms. Ye, we are indeed here to handle some work matters. It can only be said that you and President Shen are very destined to meet.”
Ye Xinning, "..."
She gave up. It was impossible to get anything out of Wenzhu. Wenzhu was Shen Lin's person, so naturally she would say whatever Shen Lin told her to say.
...
Back at the hotel, Ye Xinning took a quick shower and lay down on the bed. Although she had slept for a while on the plane, nothing was as comfortable as being in bed.
She was woken up again by the doorbell. She got dressed and went to open the door.
It was a hotel staff member who came to deliver breakfast.
"Hello, is this Ms. Ye?"
"Um."
"Your breakfast."
The staff pushed the cart into the room, and Ye Xinning was still a little confused. "I didn't order breakfast."
"It was ordered for you by the guest in room 1612."
"One six one two?"
Ye Xinning knew immediately that it was Shen Lin. Besides Shen Lin and her, were there any other people here?
"OK, thanks."
Ye Xinning thanked the waiter, and after he left, she picked up her phone to call Shen Lin. The phone rang for a long time before someone answered.
“Sinking down.”
"Hmm, what's wrong?"
"What exactly do you want?" Ye Xinning asked, rubbing her temples, somewhat impatiently. "I've already told you, we're divorced, and I don't want to have anything more to do with you. What more do you want? Can you stay away from me? You're already causing me trouble, you know that?"
"I thought you knew what I wanted to do."
"Mr. Shen, you always think that everything you want to be. You're just as naive as ever."
Ye Xinning said sarcastically, his tone cold.
She thought back to her marriage with Shen Lin, how she had explained things to him countless times, but he had never believed her even once.
He was so convinced of his own correctness that he couldn't listen to anyone else's opinions. Chen Lin's words at that moment reminded her of those less pleasant times.
"I know you're angry about what I did in the past, but Ningning, it's impossible for me to let go."
"Then you should also know what kind of person I am. Once I've made up my mind, no matter what you do, you can't change my decision."
Ye Xinning paused for a second after saying this, then said, "Shen Lin, don't you understand? My love for you has been exhausted. There's no way we can get back together."
"If we can't get back together, we'll start over. If the love is all gone, I'll make you fall in love with me again. Anyway, let me tell you, I will never let go in this lifetime."
Shen Lin is obsessive and domineering, a fact Ye Xinning had long known.
Seeing that she couldn't explain these things to him, Ye Xinning simply stopped talking and said, "Chen Lin, I said it's impossible, and that's final. I'll change hotels now and stay away from you."
After saying that, she hung up the phone, sent Ye Xiaoxiao a message to change hotels, and started packing her things.
The doorbell rang, and Ye Xinning thought Ye Xiaoxiao was alright, so she grabbed her things and dragged her luggage towards the door. But when she opened the door, the person standing there was not Ye Xiaoxiao.
Ye Xinning looked at Shen Lin, who appeared at the door. The man's face was gloomy, clearly showing his displeasure. "What are you here to do..."
Before Ye Xinning could finish speaking, the man suddenly reached out, took her luggage, walked directly into the bedroom, and slammed the back door shut.
Ye Xinning was startled by his actions and stammered, "Chen Lin, this is my room, you... get out."
Shen Lin raised his eyes, his gaze falling on her small, delicate face. He took a long stride, getting even closer to her.
"Are you leaving?"
Although Ye Xinning was afraid, she still said firmly, "Whether I leave or not is my business, and it has nothing to do with you."
"Yeah?"
Shen Lin moved forward again, and Ye Xinning hurriedly stepped back, but she lost her balance. As she fell backward, Shen Lin caught her waist and pulled her into his arms.
The intimate contact startled Ye Xinning, who reflexively tried to push Shen Lin away, but the natural difference in strength between men and women made it impossible for Ye Xinning to push him away.
"Chen Lin, what are you doing? Let me go!"
"What can you do to me if I really want to do something?"
