Chapter 27 Throwing Herself into His Arms



The couple in front of him looked as good-looking as the couple posters posted outside the mall. The salesperson looked between them for two seconds, pretending not to see anything, and interrupted at the right time: "Comrade, are you still buying?"

Zhou Yunwan acted on impulse, and now that she had come to her senses, she felt very embarrassed. She buried her chin in her scarf and shook her head gently, "No need, just do as he said and take two boxes."

"Okay." The salesperson said, and turned to get the goods.

Zhou Yunwan hid half of her face in the scarf and slowly calmed herself down, but the faint fragrance she smelled in the room kept rushing around in her nose, disturbing her thoughts.

She was so excited not because Chen Yanli was willing to spend money to buy so many things for her. What good things had she not seen in her previous life? There are countless men who spend money to please her, so she won't be so happy about such a small thing that she loses her mind.

It was because Shen Yanli had such a cold personality that he actually remembered every word she said unintentionally and quietly put it into action.

I remember that she was afraid of the bitterness of taking medicine, so I prepared candies for her in advance; I remember that she said her skin was too dry, so I bought her cold cream; I remember that she didn't want to owe anyone a favor, so I bought things for her in a roundabout way.

He would not deliberately talk about how good he was to her, but would just give silently. Unlike some people, who would talk about it over and over again if they were a little bit nice to you, for fear that you would not remember his kindness and would not repay him in the future.

Although she is a super face-obsessed person, she is also touched by the small details in life. If someone has both, she will certainly be moved.

...

...

Even if Chen Yanli only has a good impression of her now, and it doesn't reach the level of love, so what? She has never failed to get anything she set her eyes on.

People are no exception.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yunwan's beautiful eyes moved slightly, and she shifted her gaze to the extremely handsome face of the person next to her. The lines of his profile were smooth, and his facial features were three-dimensional and upright. She looked at him for a long time, and the more she looked, the more satisfied she became, and a hint of determination flashed in her eyes.

Shen Yanli keenly caught her gaze, not knowing if it was his illusion. For a moment, he felt that the way she looked at him had changed, but he couldn't describe what had changed. He only instinctively felt a sense of aggression and possessiveness.

But he didn't reject it, he even liked it a little.

He knew clearly that he shouldn't have such feelings, but he couldn't control his heart. Realizing this, his forced calmness and composure almost collapsed. His heartbeat, which had not yet returned to normal, became erratic again, stopped for half a beat, and then uncontrollably accelerated.

He pressed his thin lips into a straight line, his eyes darkening, and he couldn't help but think that if the two of them were still in the same intimate posture as before, with her face pressed tightly against his chest, she would definitely hear his heartbeat that was crossing the line.

"Thank you." The girl's sweet voice interrupted his thoughts and brought him back to reality.

Suddenly coming to his senses, he lowered his eyes and saw her taking the bag handed to her by the salesperson, then turned around and smiled at him prettily: "Brother, let's go."

Her black eyes were clear and round, and there was a charming smile at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, which made people swallow unconsciously.

Shen Yanli's Adam's apple rolled, and he hummed nonchalantly.

When the two were about to walk out of the department store, Zhou Yunwan suddenly slapped her forehead, stopped and asked him to wait for her at the door. She forgot to buy something. He wanted to go with her, but she waved her hand and insisted on going alone.

There was no other way. He couldn't persuade her, so he could only find a secluded corner at the door to wait and tell her to come back quickly.

Zhou Yunwan nodded obediently, then turned around and quickly walked into the mall, found the handkerchief counter and picked out two simple dark silk handkerchiefs, then went to the pen counter and bought a pen and ink, intending to use it as a return gift.

She didn't bring much money today, but it was more than enough to buy these things.

After asking the salesperson to simply pack it, she carried the things back, walked out of the door, and headed straight towards Shen Yanli. He seemed to be chatting with an acquaintance and did not notice her.

She was walking in a hurry and didn't notice a bicycle parked on the side of the road. She walked straight past it from behind. The owner of the bicycle didn't notice her passing by when he was reversing, and the accident happened.

With a click.

The wheel of the bicycle hit Zhou Yunwan's right leg directly. The impact caused her to stagger two steps. She subconsciously dodged to the side, but the pain in her calf made her frown.

She lowered her head to check and saw that her pants were covered with mud mixed with snow water. They were dirty and she couldn't tell whether the wound was serious or not, but the burning pain reminded her of the tragedy that had just happened.

"Comrade, are you okay? It's all my fault for not paying attention to the road."

While she was busy checking her pants, she heard a young boy's apology voice above her head.

Zhou Yunwan pursed her lips and said nothing. Not only did he not look at the road, she didn't look at the road either. Her eyes were fixed on Chen Yanli not far away. Alas, male beauty is harmful.

"It's okay, I didn't look at the road either." She said, and raised her head to look at the owner of the bicycle.

He was a boy who looked about the same age as her, about eighteen or nineteen years old, tall and thin, with a tough and deep appearance, a healthy wheat-colored skin, and short hair in a crew cut. He looked a bit like the athlete that is commonly seen in later generations.

A pair of dark eyes were staring at her with a hint of surprise.

While she was looking at him, Meng Shuchi was also looking at her.

In his entire life, he had never seen such a beautiful girl, with black and fluffy hair, beautiful and delicate facial features, a clear mind and a beautiful figure, pure, lovely, lively and fresh.

Every one of her facial features was perfectly in line with his aesthetic standards; even the most inconspicuous strands of hair looked incredibly beautiful.

In the past, he always believed that love at first sight in stories was fake and was made up by the authors to deceive girls. He didn't believe that anyone would fall madly in love with someone they met for the first time. At least, he wouldn't.

But now, he just wanted to slap his former self twice.

My God, he looked like he was in love.

The first heart-pounding experience in his life made him feel at a loss. He was annoyed that he had accidentally bumped into her, but also grateful that he would not have met her if it had not been for the accident. He was filled with mixed feelings and did not know how to react for a moment.

He was hesitant and finally said, "I will be responsible."

As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that there was something wrong with this sentence. He scratched the back of his head and explained frantically: "I, I didn't mean that. I meant, that, I, you..."

After hesitating for a long time, he couldn't make any clear words. Instead, his whole face turned red, which combined with his dark skin color made him look like a burnt chestnut, which was very interesting to look at.

The young boy's immature and awkward thoughts are not easy to understand. Zhou Yunwan saw through it at a glance. She held it back for a long time, but finally burst out laughing accidentally. But after laughing, she still kindly helped him out: "It's okay, it's just a minor injury, you don't have to be responsible."

The girl's bright and charming smile dazzled Meng Shuchi's eyes. His face turned even redder and his heart beat so fast that it seemed like it was going to explode.

He asked tentatively: "Well, my name is Meng Shuchi, what's your name?"

Zhou Yunwan was about to speak, but she saw the boy's face suddenly change. He stared at the position behind her and said respectfully: "Second brother, Sister Jin Ning, why are you here?"

Zhou Yunwan turned her head away, the corners of her mouth that were originally raised slowly converged, and a hint of vigilance appeared in her eyes.

Shen Yanli had a gloomy face and was walking towards her in big strides, followed by a young lady dressed maturely and beautifully. The two of them walked one in front and one behind, and stopped half a step away from her.
