Chapter 102
Another message came through.
Shen Yan opened it and took a look.
Chen Hui posted a photo.
The woman in the picture has a cool and aloof profile, and her black hair is simply tied up.
Shen Yan's fingertips lightly traced across the screen, as if touching her face.
Those I dare not see, I only glance at.
A stinging, bitter, and resentful pain surged in his chest, plunging him completely into despair.
Shen Yan stood up; he was not wearing any clothes on his upper body.
The muscular lines of the male physique, brimming with testosterone, gradually came into view.
He got up and put on a long-sleeved shirt to cover the bruises on his arms.
Open the door and go downstairs.
......
When Shen Yan went downstairs, he saw Chen Hui giving him many meaningful glances, hinting that he should go to the kitchen.
Shen Yan scratched his slightly frizzy hair and walked straight over.
Unexpectedly, Shen Yan discovered that there was more than one person in the kitchen as soon as he stepped inside.
Yingning stood in front of the cupboard, seemingly wanting to take something.
Lu Yuzhou was also at the kitchen counter.
Judging from his movements, it seems he's planning to cut some fruit.
Just as Shen Yan was about to leave the kitchen, he felt a push from behind.
"Yingning, if you need anything, let Shen Yan help you get it."
Chen Hui gave Shen Yan a push, making him come to Ying Ning's side.
Shen Yan glanced at her furtively, and seeing that she seemed unaffected, he breathed a sigh of relief and said:
What do you need?
"Huh?" She was surprised to see someone suddenly appear beside her, and before she could react, she continued Shen Yan's words.
"The fruit platter in the cabinet on the left."
The cupboard was already quite high up, and the larger fruit plate she wanted was stored on the top shelf.
Shen Yan leaned forward and reached out, taking the fruit plate she wanted.
"Give."
Shen Yan handed it to her, and then saw her look directly at him and say, "Shen Yan, thank you."
He felt like he hadn't spoken to her in a long time.
Shen Yan's eyes stung, and his voice became somewhat hoarse.
"It's fine."
You see, even the most normal interactions from the past seem to have become a luxury at this moment.
I still can't escape it.
Just one glance at you and my defenses crumble.
Shen Yan's gaze was fixed on her, as if he wanted to take in all her beauty.
He seemed to only realize what was happening when Chen Hui spoke again.
"Chen Yan, come and help!"
Lu Yuzhou cut four portions of fruit and was cleaning the knives when Chen Hui deliberately called out to Shen Yan.
"Yingning, let's go to the living room."
"Just let Shen Yan go and get it."
Chen Hui immediately pulled Ying Ning to the living room, then winked at Shen Yan, giving him a hint.
Shen Yan had no idea that Chen Hui was trying to ease the tension between him and Ying Ning.
They immediately took the fruit and went outside.
Lu Yuzhou, the only one left in the kitchen, turned off the tap.
Beneath the slightly curled ends of her hair, the once dazzling brown color had dimmed considerably.
Today is our last date.
Lu Yuzhou picked up a tissue to wipe his hands, and only came to his senses when his fingertips were red from rubbing.
Since this is the last time.
We should still try to win it over.
Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't have much contact with her in the coming year.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuzhou left the kitchen.
Upon entering the living room, Shen Yan sat down beside her, with some distance between them. Chen Hui was sitting in the other seat next to her.
Lu Yuzhou simply sat down opposite her.
......
The staff of "The Mystery of Love" released the rules for the final date, which are that dates are freely invited.
Lu Yuzhou spoke first: "Yingning, may I invite you on this last date?"
Shen Yan, who was standing to the side, was taken aback. He had always thought that He Zhiqian was the hidden spy.
The last time Yingning and Lu Yuzhou were paired together was just the result of my impulsive actions at the time.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yuzhou then invited Ying Ning.
His aura immediately changed, and Shen Yan stared intently at Lu Yuzhou: "What's wrong?"
"You like her?"
His words startled Chen Hui, turning her face pale.
The cameras were rolling, and his tone was quite unfriendly.
But Shen Yan's patience had long been worn down by the torment of these past few days.
"Lu Yuzhou, do you like Yu Yingning?"
His tone was somewhat harsh, but then he heard Lu Yuzhou speak:
Whether I like Yu Yingning or not is none of your business.
With a single sentence, a line was drawn between Shen Yan and Ying Ning.
His unusually sharp tone almost instantly ignited the anger that Shen Yan had been suppressing.
"Lu Yuzhou!"
"I knew it..."
Shen Yan stood up abruptly and slammed his fist on the table in anger.
The atmosphere around them instantly turned cold.
His commotion was quite loud, attracting the attention of He Zhiqian, who had just come downstairs.
Shen Yan's eyes, though filled with shimmering peach blossoms, were filled with a wounded expression.
He grabbed Lu Yuzhou by the collar and said bluntly, "How can it be that it's not related?"
"How can Yu Yingning have nothing to do with me?!"
The cameraman hesitated, wondering whether to continue filming, but unexpectedly, He Zhiqian came over and gestured for him to turn off the camera temporarily.
Shen Yan became even angrier when he saw Lu Yuzhou's indifferent attitude.
How could he...?
How could this be...
"Chen Yan!"
He heard the person next to him angrily call his name.
Shen Yan did not let go of his hand. Compared to Shen Yan, who often went out to exercise, Lu Yuzhou was still a bit thinner.
"Shen Yan, are you going to continue acting crazy?" Ying Ning forcefully pulled Shen Yan's hand off Lu Yuzhou's collar.
Her fingertips left a red mark on the back of his hand.
Shen Yan pushed the stool away, turned his back to her, and sneered:
"In your eyes, everything I do is crazy, right?"
His back was almost bent from the corrosive effects of the aches and pains.
Shen Yan steadied himself and tried his best to control his tone, not wanting others to notice anything amiss.
After saying that, he turned around and went upstairs without waiting for Yingning's reply.
*
After Shen Yan returned upstairs, the atmosphere in the living room became somewhat quiet.
It wasn't until the staff member sneered and said, "Now, all guests can invite their favorite guests."
Lu Yuzhou straightened his collar briefly, as if nothing had happened, and said:
"Yingning, may I invite you?"
Lu Yuzhou's tone seemed to be trying to tie himself down to something, and there was a hint of unease in his brown eyes as he tried to maintain his composure.
Then he heard her say:
"Can."
......
Yingning opened the dormitory door on the second floor, preparing to draw back the curtains that hadn't been opened that morning.
Before she could even reach out, she was embraced by a male body exuding a powerful aura.
Shen Yan hugged her from behind, revealing her vulnerability beneath the shimmering pool.
The fear and anxiety he felt these days were like a curse, silently raging in his blood.
He was barely suppressing his anger when he was in the living room.
At this moment, Shen Yan really couldn't hold back anymore.
“Ningning…”
"I really...like you so much..."
He spoke, his voice trembling.
Shen Yan leaned close to her and left a sizable kiss mark on her neck.
He was Rose's most devout follower, and at this moment he could only pray that the gods would spare her gaze.
"Stop torturing me."
