Chapter 374 Return to the Arena
Jiang Xu was really reluctant to leave Shi Yan, so the two of them finished their meal and walked back to the hotel.
Jiang Xu tried to get closer to Shi Yan several times but failed.
She was very calm.
"Shi Yan."
Before the two of them were about to enter the hotel, Jiang Xu suddenly grabbed Shi Yan's hand and said, "I, Shi Yan, I."
Shi Yan looked up at him.
Jiang Xu's eyes were shining. He didn't say anything, but his eyes revealed his emotions.
"Can I kiss you?"
A cold wind blew.
Shi Yan's palms were sweaty, and so were Jiang Xu's.
Shi Yan was not resisting, but she simply could not accept it. She convinced herself in her heart that she and Jiang Xu were now in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.
But she still couldn't take that step.
She felt guilty, "Jiang Xu."
Jiang Xu stared at her face, his gaze moving from her eyes to her lips. Finally, Jiang Xu couldn't help it and held her face to kiss her.
Shi Yan closed her eyes and her eyelashes trembled.
He stopped.
Shi Yan slowly opened her eyes, and Jiang Xu let go of Shi Yan. "I'll kiss you again when you stop resisting."
"Jiang Xu."
"I'm flying tonight. If you need anything, just give me a call and the branch office here will help."
Jiang Xu had a hunch that Shi Yan really had someone to help her here.
But this person is not him, it is someone else.
Shi Yan sent him to the hotel entrance.
Jiang Xu turned around and hugged her, "Shi Yan, I'll hurry up and take care of things over there."
"Well, I'll wait for you."
Shi Yan watched Jiang Xu's car leave and pulled her clothes tighter.
She turned around and saw Song Yuchen standing at the door of the hotel smoking. He was wearing sportswear and must have just come back from a run.
What a coincidence, what a coincidence.
The tip of Shi Yan's nose turned red. Her skin was a little sensitive, and it became red when the cold wind blew.
Shi Yan walked into the hotel, completely ignoring Song Yuchen.
Song Yuchen watched her walk further and further away, then reached out and grabbed her arm, "Shi Yan."
Shi Yan seemed to be bitten by something and quickly shook off Song Yuchen, "What are you doing?"
There was obvious disdain in her eyes.
"I have a boyfriend, please respect yourself!"
Song Yuchen curled up the corner of his mouth in a sneer. He exerted a little force and Shi Yan fell into his arms.
She struggled to push Song Yuchen away, and Song Yuchen suddenly pinched Shi Yan's earlobe.
Shi Yan was stunned.
Song Yuchen's eyes were red, and when he approached, Shi Yan smelled a strong smell of alcohol.
"You've had too much to drink."
"Does he know you're sensitive here?"
"Song Yuchen."
Song Yuchen's hand fell on Shi Yan's shoulder. Shi Yan looked up at him. He was enduring.
Resist touching her at this time.
Throat slide.
"Why do you have to pester me?"
"What do you think?"
Song Yuchen's voice was hoarse, as if it had been rubbed by sand.
Those dark eyes seemed to be able to speak.
He didn't say anything and they sat in silence. Shi Yan even forgot to push him away for a moment. The sadness in his eyes made Shi Yan hesitate.
Is it because of myself?
"Shi Yan."
Song Yuchen rested his head on Shi Yan's shoulder. Shi Yan wanted to move away, but found that Song Yuchen was silent.
Song Yuchen lowered his arms.
"Song Yuchen?"
Song Yuchen's face was pale and his lips were bloodless.
"What’s wrong with you?"
…
Inside the hospital.
Song Yuchen opened his eyes and looked at Shi Yan who was sleeping on the side of the bed. The two of them were so close that they could even see the tiny hairs on her body.
He pointed his finger at the tip of Shi Yan's nose. His movements were very gentle and Shi Yan frowned.
Song Yuchen wanted to rub her head.
Song Yuchen's hand fell on her hair.
Just then, Yan woke up.
The two looked at each other awkwardly.
Shi Yan stood up and poured a glass of water and drank it. "Do you want some?"
"Yes, help me up."
Song Yuchen met Shi Yan's gaze and spoke slowly, "Excuse me."
Song Yuchen, who always has a strong aura, showed such a vulnerable side in front of Shi Yan for the first time.
Shi Yan lowered her eyes, handed over the water, and shook the bed again.
"When did you get sick?"
"have no idea."
Song Yuchen really didn't know that his stomach problems were so serious that he needed surgery.
Shi Yan asked and found out it was a simple minor operation, and Song Yuchen looked very bad.
"Thank you for taking me to the hospital."
Shi Yan stood in front of the bed and sneered, "What? You think I'll throw you out on the street?"
"It's not impossible."
Shi Yan's eyes turned cold, "After all, I am a vicious woman who is greedy and vain."
Song Yuchen could hear the hidden meaning in her words, but did not refute it.
Shi Yan kept waiting for Song Yuchen's subordinates to come and take care of her so that she could return to the construction site and work with Li Xiangyun.
But Song Yuchen didn't give her this opportunity.
No one came until Song Yuchen had surgery in the afternoon.
"Where's your secretary?"
Song Yuchen raised his eyebrows weakly, "I came here alone, without bringing anyone."
"I still have work."
Song Yuchen's ink-splashed eyes dimmed, "Go back to work, don't worry about me."
Shi Yan's eyebrows were almost twisted into a knot. She really wanted to ignore him and leave him here alone.
Shi Yan closed the door and went out to call Li Xiangyun and told him about the situation. "Teacher, I may not be able to go back."
"I can handle this on my own, you take care of him."
"Shi Yan."
Li Xiangyun came out of the construction site wearing a safety helmet. "I know I shouldn't interfere in your affairs, but Song Yuchen is not a bad person."
"Things on the construction site..."
Li Xiangyun was called away before he could finish his words. "Let's talk about it when you come back. I have to get busy here."
