"There's such a saying?" Shang Xian was speechless.
"Since we're already here, let's make do for the night," Shen Yi said, pulling Shang Xian's arm as they pressed their palms together and entered the room.
"Sigh..." Shang Xian had no choice but to accept her fate. She always felt that Shen Yi was a gentleman, so it wasn't a big deal. Surely this guy wouldn't lay a hand on her.
After the lights were turned on, Shang Xian could finally see his house clearly.
The cold, stark black and white color scheme doesn't feel like a home at all; it's more like an equation.
"Your house is so deserted," Shang Xian said honestly.
"Yes, it's deserted," he himself knew it.
“It doesn’t look as comfortable as my house. Living here for a long time might lead to depression.” Shang Xian looked around, while Shen Yi quietly watched her pondering the problem.
Suddenly, Shang Xian turned her head to look at him and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Then let's go to your place." Shen Yi turned off the lights, pulled her out, put her in the car, and drove away.
The movement was executed in one smooth motion, so fast that Shang Xian couldn't react in time.
"Where do you live?" Shen Yi asked.
"Turn left, go straight then turn right, go straight then turn right and you'll be there in a kilometer," Shang Xian said quickly, not knowing if Shen Yi understood. After she finished speaking, she wondered why she had given him her address.
"You're going to my house?" Shang Xian was surprised.
"Didn't you say my family is prone to depression? For the sake of my health, I can sacrifice myself a little," Shen Yi said with a straight face.
Shang Xian replied coldly, "I did not agree."
“Then I’ll pay, so I can live in your house openly and legitimately,” Shen Yi smiled, though Shang Xian couldn’t see it.
"???" That makes sense, but... she doesn't need it at all!
"Can you bear to see me depressed?" Shen Yi is completely shameless now, I don't know where he learned this from.
"Eloquent!" Damn capitalism!
"We're here." Shen Yi parked the car steadily. Shang Xian opened the door angrily. Everything in the house was in her favorite style. Although she wasn't very girly, she still chose warm colors for her style.
“Your house feels like home.” Shen Yi looked around, his eyes filled with a hint of melancholy.
Shang Xian had already guessed some things about Shen Yi. Perhaps his family was even less happy than hers, from the beginning until now, while she had finally found happiness after all her suffering.
"It's okay, everything will pass. You'll have your own family in the future, one that has nothing to do with your original family. The person you'll be living with is your wife, not your parents, so don't worry. Someone will always give you all the kindness the world owes you..."
Before Shang Xian could finish speaking, Shen Yi hugged him.
Shen Yi even doubted whether he himself said the phrase "I hope that person is you." He did have this thought, but it wasn't that strong. Now, he was very happy to say it.
We've only known each other for less than a day... just one day...
"But I feel like we've known each other for a very, very long time."
"Shenyi?" Shangxian felt awkward calling him that and didn't know what else to call him.
"You can't let go of Li Ci," Shen Yi said, releasing his grip on Shang Xian. This was a statement.
"Yes, how can one day compare to twenty-three years?" She doesn't need any feelings. If she were to be forced into marriage in the future, her first choice would definitely be Li Ci.
Now a god named Shenyi has appeared, and she wants him to disappear, since his appearance has disrupted all her plans.
Shen Yi opened his mouth, but ultimately had nothing to say.
