After working for a week straight, Chen Yu finally felt like she had settled in. Some of her female colleagues were even inviting her to lunch.
She is quite satisfied with her current life. She has short working hours and long holidays, and she makes full use of most of her time.
weekend.
Chen Yu planned to go to the supermarket to buy some things. Eating out every day wasn't impossible, but she would get tired of it after a while. She watched some tutorial videos online and learned how to make something herself. The result was edible.
She walked around the supermarket, stopping and starting, picking up things and then putting them back down.
Actually, I felt it was too expensive.
Although she had her own savings and the money Shen Yan gave her, she hadn't touched it at all, thinking that she would have money to take out if she really encountered difficulties.
She spotted the blueberries in the freezer; each one was plump and large, and without a second thought, she bought four boxes.
When she got to the snack section, she realized she hadn't had any snacks in a long time. For some reason, she suddenly had a craving for potato chips. After looking around, she finally chose shrimp chips.
She stood on tiptoe to reach the top row of shrimp chips, but couldn't reach them for a long time.
Just as she was about to give up, a hand reached out and took the bag of shrimp chips from her. She stared at that familiar hand and suddenly turned her head.
"Chen...Chen Yan?"
"Yeah, long time no see."
His eyes showed little surprise, but rather calmness.
Chen Yu looked at this face that she could only see in her dreams, and her heart was filled with turbulent emotions.
Shen Yan put the shrimp chips into Chen Yu's basket, took a bag for himself, and then left the snack area on his own.
Chen Yu's eyes followed Shen Yan the whole time, but Shen Yan never looked at her once. Chen Yu shook her head. The two of them had now returned to the position of brother and sister, so it was normal that they no longer had that kind of lingering gaze.
But this is such a huge difference!!
Chen Yu scoffed and quickly ran to the cashier to pay. She never dreamed that Shen Yan would appear in France.
Since he left home, no one has heard from him again, and no one around him dares to mention him.
When I saw him again, I felt that he had changed. He seemed to have lost weight or gained weight, and his face looked more weathered.
Perhaps this is because they've been beaten down by society too many times.
Back home.
Chen Yu held her phone and opened her pinned chat history. She had never unpinned Chen Yan's chat history, and she would occasionally look through it to reminisce about the beautiful times they had together on campus.
Unexpectedly, these happy memories eventually became the source of her pain.
The more I look at her, the sadder I become.
But it was precisely these pains that made her realize the impossibility of their relationship; otherwise, she would have always felt that there was still a chance for them.
Chen Yu casually scrolled through the chat history, her mood gradually becoming irritable. She also increased the pressure on her hand, and accidentally clicked the "tap" button.
She froze completely on the sofa. She quickly tapped it again, then immediately pulled back and patted it.
"He probably didn't see it in such a short time..."
Chen Yu frantically tried to mentally prepare herself, concluding that Shen Yan was definitely still shopping at the supermarket and hadn't seen the bag.
However, the other side is solemn.
He was still debating whether to text Chen Yu. He had originally planned to pay the bill with her, but after walking around, he found that she had already left. He didn't know if she had enough money left.
Shen Yan had heard that Huang Xiaoni's company was doing better and better and would certainly not treat Chen Yu unfairly, but he was still worried.
Before he could even send his message, he received a pat from Chen Yu, but then withdrew it the next second.
Shen Yan didn't understand the operation. After thinking for a while, he decided not to send a message.
He still needs to find a place to stay.
Wait, find a place to stay? He suddenly had an idea.
When Chen Yu arrived at Shen Yan's location, she huffed and puffed as she ran downstairs to meet him.
"Why don't you want to find a place to stay even though you've come all this way?"
"I couldn't find it. I only remembered it when I got here. This secretary is inefficient."
Secretary: ? ? Is it my fault again?
"Xiaoying? She's very serious about what she does."
"I changed to another one."
Hearing the stern reply, Chen Yu assumed it was that Su Man, and his face darkened. He didn't continue the topic.
She returned to her small apartment with a solemn expression.
"My place is small, please don't mind."
"I won't mind."
Chen Yu nodded in relief, leaving Shen Yan to sleep on the sofa with a sense of grievance.
After tidying up the clothes on the sofa, I got a pillow and a blanket for Shen Yan. I was thinking of putting something on the sofa for him, but then I remembered Su Man. I figured I could just put a fart on him and make him die of stiffness.
"You should get some rest. I'm going to my room."
Upon hearing Chen Yu's words, Shen Yan turned around and gave her a deep look. He wanted to say something, but knowing that their relationship made it difficult to discuss, he could only remain silent.
He bent down and tidied his clothes.
Chen Yu listened to the sounds outside from inside the room.
Shen Yan was very quiet. He went to sleep after tidying up. He had taken a day-long flight to get here.
midnight.
Chen Yu was awakened by the urge to urinate.
She tiptoed to the bathroom, and spent the entire night in a half-awake state, probably because she kept thinking about it.
I always want to sneak out and take a peek at Shen Yan.
Looking at Shen Yan sleeping soundly, she suddenly wanted to go closer to take a look. She gazed at Shen Yan's delicate face.
It's a face I've seen since I was a child, but I never get tired of looking at it.
She reached out to touch Shen Yan's cheek, her fingers brushing against the tip of his nose.
His eyes slowly opened, and he reached out to grasp the fingers on the tip of his nose. "Does it feel good?" he asked hoarsely.
"you.."
Before Chen Yu could finish speaking, his mouth was covered.
The two moved into a room.
early morning.
Chen Yu slightly opened her eyes. The sun outside the window was particularly dazzling. She got up and drew the curtains.
Clothes were scattered all over the floor, as if telling her that what happened last night was not an illusion.
With a smile on her lips, Chen Yu picked up the clothes from the floor and went into the living room.
She needs to get ready and go to work.
I arrived at the company around 10:30 and ran into Yin Hao downstairs.
"morning."
"morning."
Chen Yu responded politely, but Yin Hao stared at her face for a long time without looking away. Chen Yu touched her face a little embarrassedly, "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"
"No, I'm sorry, I was being presumptuous."
Yin Hao quickened his pace up the stairs, and Chen Yu looked at his back with some confusion.
Although I had some doubts, they were all trivial matters.
All morning, her colleagues were watching her, but the smiles on their faces weren't mocking; rather, they were a little shy.
She reluctantly went to the bathroom to tidy herself up, and that's when she saw the hickeys on her neck. She was shocked and ashamed; how come she hadn't seen them this morning! No wonder everyone was staring at her.
And what Yin Hao said this morning!
She understood everything now, and was incredibly embarrassed.
Chen Yu took out concealer from her bag and patted it on her neck.
The more he teased her, the redder her face became...
