Chapter 162 Chapter 162 Wen Qian looked down at his hands...
Wen Qian looked down at her phone. Chu Lingyu had sent her a message before coming, saying that he would wait for her downstairs in the community, but she walked around here and didn't see anyone.
Did she miss it?
Wen Qian looked around in confusion, picked up his phone and sent a message to Chu Lingyu.
Jiang Zhi had already entered the residential complex. Before leaving, he seemed to have something else to say, but he didn't say it in the end. He only told her that it was getting dark and to go home early.
Wen Qian felt that Jiang Zhi's mood just now was not right, but he couldn't tell what exactly was wrong.
She looked down at her phone screen, put it in her pocket, and walked a few steps along the street, wondering whether she should go to the noodle shop and sit for a while to wait for Chu Lingyu.
When turning the corner, the person standing by the wall reached out and grabbed Wen Qian's arm. She subconsciously raised her head to look at the person.
"Chu Lingyu?" she asked with some surprise.
She was just looking for him, but she didn't expect him to be so close to her!
"When did you come here?" Wen Qian asked in confusion.
Chu Lingyu didn't say anything, but just stood up slightly and took two steps towards Wen Qian. The shadow cast by the vending machine standing nearby obscured his expression.
Wen Qian couldn't see his eyes clearly, he could only see the corners of his lips tightened.
Chu Lingyu didn't know what he was thinking at the moment. His blank mind made him feel powerless. When he saw the man walking on the street holding Wen Qian's hand, his breath stopped.
I subconsciously took a step forward, wanting to move forward, but froze in place the next second.
The expression on his face slowly disappeared. When he saw Jiang Zhi's hand fall on Wen Qian's hair, his numb fingers hanging at his side slowly clenched into fists.
The night breeze was just the right temperature, but it only made him feel a little chilly. The moment Jiang Zhi leaned closer to her, he almost wanted to interrupt it all without hesitation.
This feeling of unwillingness suddenly turned into a bitter taste when he saw Wen Qian. The bitterness spread from the root of his tongue and rolled down his throat, causing him to feel fear.
Will Wen Qian choose Jiang Zhi?
He watched almost numbly as Jiang Zhi bent down to straighten Wen Qian's collar and watched them talking in low voices.
As Jiang Zhi turned to leave, Wen Qian looked down at his phone. At the same time, the phone in his pocket vibrated slightly.
The message alert tone that used to excite him now made him panic.
He didn't dare to look, for fear that he would see her saying that she couldn't come to see him.
What should he do, what should he do now?
He wanted to get close to Wen Qian, but he didn't dare to get close to her. He didn't want to hear any words of rejection from her. Covering his ears and stealing the bell was a true reflection of his mentality at the moment.
But when Wen Qian really walked past him unconsciously, he couldn't help but instinctively grabbed her hand.
Wen Qian paused, looked at the person in front of him who didn't say a word, and blinked in confusion.
"Chu Lingyu?" She called him again.
The person in front of her seemed to wake up from his deep thoughts and took a step closer to her, then another step closer.
Wen Qian looked at the person who suddenly approached him, his gaze moved, falling on the corners of his eyes, the tips of his eyebrows, and finally on his tightly pursed lips.
Coming out from the shadows, she saw his expression clearly, which was far from happy.
His eyes suppressed emotions that Wen Qian couldn't understand. She turned slightly to the side, raised her head and moved closer, as if she wanted to see the emotions she didn't understand more clearly.
As she got closer, she heard his breathing become ragged.
Wen Qian clearly felt this tiny change, and then what happened? The heartbeat changed.
Unsure, she stretched out her hand, wanting to feel the change more intuitively.
The fingertips that fell on the chest were caught on the spot by the owner of the body. Chu Lingyu lowered his eyes and did not look at her, but his palm tightened little by little, completely grasping her hand.
"Your heartbeat is indeed very fast." Wen Qian nodded. Her judgment was indeed correct.
Only separated by a layer of cloth, she could clearly feel the completely different heartbeat frequency.
...seems to be faster?
"Do you want to take a break?" She looked at the person in front of her, "Your heart is beating so fast."
Could it be that he got the time wrong and was late, so he had to run here? Wen Qian silently guessed.
Chu Lingyu's Adam's apple moved, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't say it.
Wen Qian waited patiently, waiting for the words he had been about to say but had never spoken.
Chu Lingyu pressed the tip of his tongue against hers, leaned down slightly, and called out her name very slowly.
"Wen Qian..." His voice was hoarse, "Can you please like me for a moment?"
The sound was not loud, and was even less clear due to the noise of the car passing by behind.
But Wen Qian heard it.
In this small corner, she heard his breathing, his heartbeat, and his labored voice.
Wen Qian looked up at Chu Lingyu, he seemed very sad.
"You think I don't like you?"
She felt the hand holding her tighten for a moment, and the person in front of her tightened his lips and looked at her solemnly.
Wen Qian exerted a little force and pulled his hand out of the other person's hand.
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but at that moment she seemed to see a look of panic in his eyes.
"But I don't dislike you."
When Wen Qian pulled his hand away, Chu Lingyu's breathing stopped for a moment, and the chaotic thoughts that had been suppressed deep in his mind suddenly burst out.
The roaring brain suddenly became silent when it heard that extremely natural answer.
He slowly raised his eyes, his expression somewhat bewildered, and he even wondered if the words he had just heard were a reply he had imagined.
This doubt suddenly dissipated when he felt Wen Qian put his hand, which he had just withdrawn, on the back of his hand again and held it tightly.
"Okay, okay, I'm not sad anymore." Wen Qian took the person and took a step outside.
The person behind her didn't react at first. He slowly followed her movements and took two steps before catching up with her.
"It's normal to feel bad." Wen Qian said lightly, "Just eat something and you'll be fine."
Wen Qian took Chu Lingyu, who hadn't reacted yet, into the store and found a seat to sit down.
"Why do you think I don't like you?" She leaned on the table and looked at the person in front of her doubtfully, "You haven't offended me."
After changing the place and breaking free from his previous emotions, Chu Lingyu pursed his lips and felt a little embarrassed about what he had done just now.
"I thought..." He paused, his expression unnatural, and tilted his head slightly, "I thought you were with Jiang Zhi."
"Together?" Wen Qian was stunned.
"You two shouldn't be dating, right?" Chu Lingyu looked at Wen Qian steadily.
"You're talking about this, of course not." Wen Qian suddenly realized.
Wen Qian understood that Chu Lingyu must have misunderstood her relationship with Jiang Zhi and mistakenly thought that she would stand on Jiang Zhi's side, so she distanced herself from him because of the bad relationship between him and Jiang Zhi.
She said naturally: "Even if I dated him, I wouldn't dislike you because of this kind of thing."
There are only a few people whom she dislikes, and she will exchange them for gold coins.
Wen Qian tried his best to comfort his sentimental friend.
After hearing her words, my friend's hand trembled and the chopsticks in her hand fell into the bowl.
Chu Lingyu was shocked: "But, but..."
Is that so?
His mind seemed to be in a mess again.
