Chapter 80 The Same Straw



Ma Qi received Shen Yan's message and was still resentful. She then asked Shen Yan about other times.

Shen Yan did not reply to her message.

He found Ma Qi a bit annoying, and his previous tactful refusal was to save face for her.

But now it seems like it has given her hope.

Ma Qi sent another message, relentlessly pressing the issue.

[Ma Qi: Shen Yan, how about now? I really have something to tell you, about school.]

This time, Shen Yan hesitated. Regarding the school matter? But deep down, he resisted. If he went this time, Ma Qi would definitely confess to him again. If he rejected her, she would feel very embarrassed. But if he didn't make things clear, Ma Qi would keep bothering him.

Shen Yan made a firm decision and agreed to Ma Qi's request; it was time to make things clear.

The moment he stepped out, he bumped into Chen Yu, who was going out to use the restroom.

"Where...are you going?"

"Go down there for a bit, I'll be right back."

"oh."

Chen Yu watched Shen Yan leave, feeling somewhat suspicious. Shen Yan almost never went out again after 9:30 at night.

Why is today so strange?

The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt, so she put on her coat and followed them down.

Sure enough, I saw the chess pieces.

It's her again!

Chen Yu hid to the side and eavesdropped.

"Chen Yan, I really like you. Now that we've graduated, will you say yes?"

"I won't be with someone who didn't even finish college."

Upon hearing Shen Yan's words, Chen Yu's mouth formed an "O" shape. How could Shen Yan be so sharp-tongued?

These words struck Ma Qi hard.

Her smile turned into a bitter one.

"Shen Yan, I will go to college. Didn't you have feelings for me before?"

Ma Qi tentatively asked, "Why did things suddenly change now when I clearly felt a solemn response before? It's all Chen Yu's fault!"

She attributed all the problems to Chen Yu.

If it weren't for her, I would already be with Shen Yan!

Ma Qi got angry just thinking about Chen Yu; she felt like she was about to lose her mind from anger.

"That's your imagination. I've never had any feelings for you. Go back."

Shen Yan still politely refused, fearing that he might say something too harsh and, given Ma Qi's personality, might do something extreme.

Ma Qi looked at Shen Yan in disbelief; she clearly sensed it...

It must all be because of Chen Yu!

Ma Qi ran away crying, blaming all the blame on Chen Yu.

If it weren't for her, I would definitely be with Shen Yan by now!

Chen Yu felt a surge of satisfaction as he watched Ma Qi run away crying.

She took out her phone and sent a message in the group, telling Jiang Yanggang and Wang Yue everything she had seen.

The three were still mocking Ma Qi.

When Shen Yan walked back, he saw Chen Yu hiding in the corner playing on her phone. She was in a position where she could see him and Ma Qi.

Did she secretly follow us down?

Standing behind Chen Yu, Shen Yan could clearly see Chen Yu complaining in the group about the embarrassing incident of Ma Qi being rejected by him.

He looked up at Chen Yu's head, he rejected Ma Qi, and Chen Yu seemed very happy.

Chen Yu chuckled to herself, but as soon as she stood up, she felt her legs go numb and she fell backward uncontrollably.

She fell into a warm embrace, and there was a familiar scent—the smell of laundry detergent from home.

Chen Yu looked towards the gate. Shen Yan, who had been standing at the door, was gone. It was Shen Yan who had caught him.

She awkwardly looked up and, sure enough, saw Shen Yan's cold yet handsome face.

"When...when did you get here?"

"Just now, you were peeking at me?"

Shen Yan's lips curled slightly, and his words carried a hint of teasing.

"No, I just came down to admire the moon. Don't misunderstand me. I don't have any penchant for eavesdropping."

"Yes, it's cloudy today and there's no moon."

Chen Yu's face flushed red instantly. She looked up awkwardly and saw that there was indeed no moon in the sky outside.

Why didn't she check the weather forecast?!

Shen Yan chuckled softly, "Let's go back."

"oh oh."

Chen Yu blushed as she stepped out of Chen Yan's arms and followed him into the elevator.

The two people in the elevator remained silent in an awkward silence.

Shen Yan walked ahead and opened the door. Chen Yu followed behind him without saying a word. As soon as she entered, she ran back to her room.

She lay in bed, thinking over and over again how embarrassing she must have been!

"What the hell am I doing?!"

Chen Yu became increasingly frustrated, and she was even mocked by Shen Yan.

The next morning.

Chen Yu got up very early, ate breakfast, and went back to her room. She spent a long time picking and choosing before finally finding clothes she liked.

This outfit looks quite gentle.

She sensed that Shen Yan definitely preferred the gentle type, but that was just her guess.

After waiting all morning, it was finally time to leave.

Chen Yu skipped and hopped out of the room.

Shen Yan drove there.

As soon as I arrived at the movie theater entrance, they started checking tickets.

Chen Yu hurriedly bought two cups of cola and a large bucket of popcorn.

As soon as the two sat down, Chen Yu took a big gulp of cola.

Shen Yan assumed that the cup Chen Yu had just put down was for him, and that the other cup didn't have a straw.

He also took a sip.

At first, Chen Yu didn't think anything was wrong, but halfway through the movie, she realized that Shen Yan had just taken a sip of her Coke!

"Shen Yan, where's your Coke?"

"Here."

Shen Yan pointed to the glass Chen Yu had drunk the first time. Chen Yu peeked out to look at the side next to him, where there was a glass without a straw on the armrest.

She left in such a hurry that she only took one straw with her!

Shen Yan looked at her absent-minded expression and asked, "What's wrong?"

"You just drank mine."

Shen Yan was taken aback, then scratched his head somewhat awkwardly, "I'm sorry."

"It's okay, you drink it, give me the other one."

Chen Yu pointed to the Coke next to Chen Yan, took the Coke, opened the cap, and drank it.

She showed no outward reaction, but inwardly she was already incredibly excited.

The two even shared an indirect kiss!

Shen Yan also felt a little embarrassed.

After watching a movie.

The two went out and found a restaurant to eat at.

It's a crab meat stew that Chen Yu loves to eat.

She's been obsessed with this crab meat stew lately, wanting to eat it every day.

Shen Yan had no objections and would accompany Chen Yu to eat once every time they went out.

"I didn't mean to, I didn't see it..."

After thinking for a moment, Shen Yan explained it to Chen Yu.

He sensed that Chen Yu's mood was off in the afternoon; he couldn't concentrate on watching the movie.

I kept wondering if Chen Yu would mind this, since he was the one who was wrong.

"Huh? What are you apologizing to me for?"

Chen Yu looked at Shen Yan with a completely bewildered expression.

"That's right, that straw."

"It's okay, I just took one less than I should have. Besides, it's no big deal between siblings."

Chen Yu added "a" at the end, saying it was to test Shen Yan and see how he would react.
