After Ye Xinning finished speaking, Shen Nanxing lowered her head and remained silent for a long time. When she spoke again, her voice was even fainter than before, "Whether I love him or not is not important. He doesn't have me in his heart. We were never destined to be together in the end."
Shen Nanxing spoke calmly, but Ye Xinning could sense her disappointment.
"Why do you think that Chi Zhao has no feelings for you?"
"If we're talking about feelings, I liked him so much all those years ago, but he never even glanced at me. I know he didn't like me, and no matter how much time has passed, that fact can't be changed."
"Have you ever wondered why Chi Zhao has been appearing around you more often lately, participating in more group activities?"
Ye Xinning asked this question.
"Maybe it's because I found a boyfriend that he feels unbalanced. It's probably his vanity that's causing it. He probably thinks that I should always like him."
Ye Xinning, "..."
That's really hard to say.
Did Chi Zhao feel regret after losing Shen Nanxing and want to pursue her, or was it simply because Shen Nanxing no longer liked him and decided to love another man, that he felt he had lost the joy of being pursued?
She didn't dare give Shen Nanxing a particularly definite answer, after all, this was no small matter, and everyone had their own thoughts.
She could offer Shen Nanxing some tips for casual conversation, but that was all; she couldn't impose her own ideas on Shen Nanxing.
...
Ye Xinning and Shen Nanxing sat together until 10 p.m., when Shen Nanxing received another call from her boyfriend, Zhou Jiamu.
Zhou Jiamu's frequent phone calls made Ye Xinning want to say a few more words to Shen Nanxing. "Zhou Jiamu probably genuinely likes you. If you like him, then I have nothing to say. But if you don't have any feelings for him, then I think you should be more decisive."
Shen Nanxing gazed into the distance, seemingly pondering Ye Xinning's question, or perhaps trying to convince herself.
"I'm trying to fall in love with him."
I'm trying to fall in love, even though I don't have deep feelings for it now, but it's possible that I will fall in love in the future.
Loving Zhou Jiamu is much happier than loving Chi Zhao.
"Yes, it's good that you know what I mean."
"Thank you, sister-in-law, for taking the time to talk to me about these things."
Ye Xinning patted Shen Nanxing on the shoulder, "Don't say thank you. We're family, so we'll just say whatever comes to mind. I hope you don't think I'm being too talkative."
"Of course not, absolutely not."
It was getting late, and Zhou Jiamu kept calling, so Shen Nanxing suggested leaving first.
"No, we'll take you there later."
Shen Ting chimed in from the side, and when Chi Zhao heard Shen Nanxing say he was leaving, he also looked over.
“Zhou Jiamu called me and said he was out having a party with friends and had a few drinks. I have to go pick him up.”
Mentioning Zhou Jiamu, Shen Ting's expression changed. "So, you're going to pick up your boyfriend."
"Hmm." Shen Ting let out a long "oh," not knowing what else to say, and looked at Chi Zhao.
But Chi Zhao had already turned his gaze away at some point, completely ignoring the situation.
"I'm leaving, bye-bye."
Shen Nanxing had already stood up, and Ye Xinning just smiled and said, "Drive carefully."
"good."
Shen Nanxing got up and left. Chi Zhao sat on the sofa and found the days incredibly boring.
He stood up, and everyone looked at him.
"No way, Shen Nanxing just left and you're going to follow right after him?" Shen Ting teased with a smile.
Ye Xinning and Shen Lin also looked at Chi Zhao.
Chi Zhao twitched the corners of his lips and said lazily, "What are you thinking about? It's getting late, go home and sleep."
Shen Ting listened meaningfully, "Is it really going to sleep, or... leaving with someone?"
"If you're really curious, come with me."
Shen Ting shook his head.
"No way, I have things to do later."
Chi Zhao pursed his lips, said nothing more, and left first.
After leaving Ming Mansion, Chi Zhao drove away, but then she remembered what Shen Nanxing had just said. Was she going to pick up Zhou Jiamu?
Zhou Jiamu has been drinking. Should she take him home?
What happened after they got him home? A drunk man, and they were in a relationship...
Chi Zhao rubbed his temples, unwilling to think any further.
He wanted to go straight home, but at the intersection, he instinctively drove in another direction.
...
After Shen Nanxing and Chi Zhao left, Shen Ting also left, leaving only Ye Xinning and Shen Lin.
Ye Xinning rested against Shen Lin's chest, while Shen Lin was on the phone talking to Wen Zhu, probably discussing some work-related matters.
Ye Xinning didn't disturb him, but quietly leaned against his chest. Thinking of the last thing Huo Qijun said when she met him before, her eyes gradually deepened.
So, what exactly was Huo Qijun deliberately hiding when he said that? Or was it just something he said to unsettle her?
She was so engrossed in her thoughts that she didn't even notice when Shen Lin hung up the phone.
"What are you thinking about, so seriously?"
Ye Xinning looked up when she heard the sound and saw Shen Lin staring at her with a probing look in his eyes.
Ye Xinning explained, "It's nothing. Did you finish your call with Wenzhu?"
"Yes, it's over."
Ye Xinning smiled gently, but her eyes were full of warmth. "Okay, sure."
Shen Lin saw that she didn't say anything, as if she had nothing to say.
"Wenzhu said you went to see Huo Qijun?"
Ye Xinning paused, then spoke with a sigh, "Sigh, I knew you would find out, but I was thinking of not telling you yet. It's just a small matter."
Shen Lin lowered his head and kissed her eyes. "Why didn't you tell me honestly? You even told me you went shopping with Ye Xiaoxiao."
"I didn't want you to worry. Actually, I went to see Kenneth Fok just to ask some questions that I had in mind. I wanted you to know that you would definitely be worried and want to come with me. And there's a possibility that you wouldn't say anything to Kenneth Fok."
"Did you get the answer you wanted?" Shen Lin held her hand and played with it in his palm.
Ye Xinning nodded.
"That's good."
Shen Lin's gentle voice came from above her head. Ye Xinning looked up at him. The man in front of her was the man she loved most and the only man she had ever loved. Whether before or after losing her memory, Shen Lin made it impossible for her to escape this entanglement of fate.
If that's the case, why should she even think about it?
Regardless of what Huo Qijun meant by those words, she is currently most satisfied with her life.
"Did you see Huo Yanzhi?"
When Shen Lin mentioned Huo Yanzhi, Ye Xinning did not deny it, "I saw him, but perhaps because he has been busy, Huo Yanzhi seems a little different."
"You care about him?"
