Chapter 36: It's not unrequited love, you like him too



"Ahem!" Cheng Ji looked a little embarrassed, "I thought you still wanted to wear it, so I took it away. I didn't want you to throw it away."

How could his little thoughts escape Shangguan Qing's eyes?

She put down her pajamas and said in a light tone, "Go back, you don't have to come here anymore."

The sea breeze outside the window blew up the white curtains, creating large waves and also lifted her long hair.

Cheng Ji stood in front of her, his reluctant gaze fixed on Shangguan Qing's face.

After a long time, he finally compromised and compromised with himself.

"good."

Without saying a word, he took off the red bracelet Shangguan Qing gave him, glanced at the jade beads on it with cold eyes, and then put it in her hand.

"Since we won't be in touch in the future, there's no need to take your things anymore. Bye bye."

Cheng Ji walked out of the antique shop without looking back, leaving behind only a lonely back and disappearing at the door.

Shangguan Qing stared at the bracelet in his hand with a complicated look and a sense of indescribable loss.

......

On the road near the beach.

Cheng Ji was sitting in the back seat of the car when he saw Mu Cheng standing on the side of the road.

He was waiting for Cheng Ji specifically.

The two of them made an appointment to go to a bar near their home because it was lunchtime and there were only two of them in the bar.

Li Yang glanced at his watch and felt irritated.

What will happen after drinking this wine at four o'clock in the afternoon?

It turns out that when the boss is unhappy, the assistant is the most anxious.

They sat at the bar, with two rows of whiskey in front of them. The light yellow bottles reflected the light in the dim room, looking sexy and charming.

Cheng Ji drank three cups in a row, and his stomach felt hot and burning.

Mu Cheng was not to be outdone and drank three cups in a row.

Cheng Ji's sharp gaze shot straight into his pupils, like an arrow hitting a target, and he asked in a cold tone, "Did Shangguan Qing sleep at your house last night?"

Mu Cheng sneered, his face showing an unconcealed smugness, "Isn't it ridiculous for the CEO of Cheng Corporation to get drunk for a woman?"

"Or does Mr. Cheng want to take her back?"

If he could have snatched it back, Cheng Ji wouldn't have to drink to drown his sorrows now.

Even without Mu Cheng, he couldn't be with Shangguan Qing, and this was what he cared about most.

Thinking of this, Cheng Ji gulped down another glass of wine.

He raised the cup in his hand, and his penis slid slowly down the wall of the cup, reflecting his distraught expression.

Mu Cheng added fuel to the fire, "You don't know how likable Shangguan Qing is. He calls me uncle and aunt all the time in my family."

He glanced at Cheng Ji indifferently, took a sip of wine, and pouted his cheek, "Especially at night, don't you know that Shangguan Qing has--"

"Bang! Da!"

Cheng Ji kicked Mu Cheng on the waist and knocked him to the ground.

"Say that to her again!"

Cheng Ji was drunk at this time and couldn't stand anyone provoking him, especially using Shangguan Qing as an excuse.

Mu Cheng supported his waist and stood up with difficulty.

Cheng Ji drank two more cups. He just wanted to numb his brain and stop himself from thinking about the fact that Shangguan Qing had left him.

He staggered to Mu Cheng and grabbed his collar with both hands.

"Who do you think you are? You are not worthy of mentioning her!"

"If it weren't for me..." The voice became smaller and smaller.

Cheng Ji's eyes were filled with helplessness and frustration, which finally turned into tears.

"Treat her well. If I find out that you have wronged her, I will make sure you can't stay in Beijing!"

Mu Cheng slapped his hand away.

Cheng Ji staggered and almost fell.

Mu Cheng endured the pain in his waist, raised the wine glass on the bar and brought it to his mouth, so fast that he couldn't tell whether he was drinking high-concentration wine or water.

He leaned his hands on the bar to relax, his voice hoarse, "Who are you to say this?"

......

Seeing that the situation was becoming increasingly difficult to control, Li Yang called Shangguan Qing in desperation.

The two men at the bar started fighting after saying something to each other.

Mu Cheng and Cheng Ji both suffered injuries of varying degrees, including bumps, collisions, and punches.

It took a long time for Shangguan Qing to arrive at Qingba.

She endured the pain in her heart and asked where Li Yangren was.

Li Yang took her to the bar.

The two men were wrestling on the floor next to the bar, and there were a number of overturned wine glasses nearby, with wine stains and glass fragments mixed together.

She covered her chest, feeling as if her heart was tightly blocked and she couldn't breathe at all.

She endured the discomfort, her brows furrowed, and the blue veins on her forehead bulged with pain.

Shangguan Qing grabbed Cheng Ji's arm and said, "Let go! Get up!"

As soon as Cheng Ji heard her voice, the strength in his hands disappeared immediately and he let her pull him up.

Cheng Ji's face was full of grievance, his voice still trembling, "You're here."

He hugged her tightly, and the smell of alcohol on his body rushed into her nose.

Mu Cheng straightened up with one hand, sat back in the seat next to him, and drank the last glass of wine that had not yet been broken.

He mocked Cheng Ji, "You might as well die if you've reached this point, you disaster star!"

A flash of determination and anger flashed across Shangguan Qing's eyes.

She turned around quickly and decisively, and with the wind in her palm, she slapped Mu Cheng's cheek fiercely.

This slap was like a thunderclap in the quiet air, crisp and loud.

Mu Cheng's face was knocked to one side by the blow, and blood slowly seeped from the corner of his mouth. He widened his eyes in shock, obviously not expecting Shangguan Qing to defend Cheng Ji so directly.

Shangguan Qing stared at Mu Cheng fiercely, his voice cold and firm, "Disaster star? Who the hell are you to call him that?"

If it weren't for the red spider lily pattern on his body, she wouldn't even look at him.

Now you dare to provoke Cheng Ji.

Every word she spoke was like a sharp blade, cutting through the oppressive atmosphere around her. Her mighty and domineering aura also stunned Li Yang who was standing beside her.

She is truly worthy of being the woman that Mr. Cheng likes.

The means are indeed unusual.

Shangguan Qing called out "Li Yang".

"Ah? Yes...yes." He withdrew his thoughts.

She handed Cheng Ji to him and told him earnestly, "He has scratches from wine glass fragments. Take him to the hospital for a checkup first. I'll be there soon."

Li Yang nodded, "Okay."

After Cheng Ji left, the bar returned to its quiet state from being noisy.

A man and a woman sat at the bar, with colored lights flashing over them from time to time.

The smell of alcohol permeated the air until it filled the entire space.

Mu Cheng lowered his eyes and glanced at the wound on his forearm, his eyes empty, "It seems that Cheng Ji is not in love with him alone, you also like him."

She just felt guilty towards Cheng Ji.

The disaster was caused by her, so she should solve it.

Shangguan Qing ordered a glass of tequila from the bartender and pressed his chest twice to try to relieve the pain.

She spoke calmly and indifferently, "Tell me, what exactly do you want to do with him?"

Then she stared into his eyes with cold eyes, chilling him to the bone, "Or should I ask, what do you want by getting close to me?"

"I admit that some of your characteristics meet my requirements for a man, but you are acting really stupid. Are you afraid that I don't know that you have an agenda?"

Mu Cheng gritted his teeth and removed the small fragment that had pierced his arm.

He let out a "hiss" sound in pain.

He stared at the bloody glass shards in his hand, his eyes flashing with a hint of coldness, "It seems that you really have lost your memory. You have forgotten everything you should and shouldn't forget."

Shangguan Qing's pupils widened, and he became emotional. "You know about my life?"
