Chapter 230: Background Cannon Fodder Who Died an Unexpected Death (10)
He does look like a decent guy - Lin Shichu looked at him for a while. It's a pity that no matter how outstanding he is, he can't get the woman he loves. He can only silently serve as a supporting actor to fulfill other people's love. How pitiful.
Lin Shichu no longer thought about the man she already had a crush on. She turned her gaze back and glared at Assistant Wen, saying, "Can you be more ambitious? He and I are over now. Just pretend you didn't see anything."
"I'm just angry that he dumped you when you were seriously injured. How heartless." Assistant Wen said indignantly, "You were still lying half-dead in the hospital bed, and he couldn't wait to break up with you! Even kicking someone when they're down is not this excessive. It's said that a night of love brings a hundred nights of love, but he has no gratitude or love for you, and it's like he has a grudge against you."
"Hey, let's be reasonable. He doesn't know what happened to me back then." Lin Shichu comforted him and pulled him away. "We are strangers now. I know you are standing up for me, but I don't care about this, so don't worry about it either."
Assistant Wen had seen Lin Shichu's miserable condition at that time, but he still couldn't get over the fact that Ye Congjian left her when she was in the most difficult time. People have their closeness and distance, and even though Ye Congjian's identity, status, and power were not on the same level as theirs, Assistant Wen still felt sorry for Lin Shichu.
On the other side, Ye Congjian, who was talking to his subordinates, suddenly had something in his heart. He looked forward and saw a very familiar figure. Was that - Lin Shichu?
Why is she in the capital? What does she want to do here? Ye Congjian frowned. His relationship with Lin Shichu has been over for several months. Even if she wants to redeem herself, she shouldn't wait for several months to do so, right? Ye Congjian knew very well that Lin Shichu liked him. When she saw him, her eyes would light up.
But he had seen too many such eyes of admiration. From childhood to adulthood, he had never lacked the admiration of women. So even though he knew Lin Shichu's feelings for him, he didn't take it to heart at all, because their status and position determined that they could not be together.
Moreover, he now has a woman he likes, and he doesn't want to create any complications that would hinder his pursuit of the woman he likes, so Lin Shichu should not be in the capital at this time.
Ye Congjian thought of all this in an instant and felt a little displeased with Lin Shichu. He hoped that she would be tactful and not bother him, otherwise don't blame him for being ruthless.
Lin Shichu had no idea that Ye Congjian was so self-indulgent. She had never thought of pestering him, but Ye Congjian had already thought of several ways to get rid of her.
Lin Shichu and Assistant Wen went to the booked hotel to rest for a night. Before the exhibition officially started, they strolled around the big shopping mall in the capital and inspected the home furnishing market there.
Linjia Home Furnishing Company is only relatively famous in Yucheng and several surrounding cities, but it is nothing in a place like the capital where famous home furnishing brands from all over the world gather. However, the capital happens to be a big market, and if one wants to build one's own company into a famous brand in the country and even the world, then one has to squeeze into the capital.
Lin Shichu was trying out a mattress in a famous Nordic home furnishings store when she inadvertently saw a very eye-catching couple walk in. She looked closely and saw that it was Ye Congjian and his heroine Wen Chuyu.
Wen Chuyu is cute and lovely, with red lips and white teeth. Her eyes are black and bright, revealing clarity and innocence, and she is very likable.
It turns out that Ye Congjian likes this style. After Lin Shichu came to this conclusion, she withdrew her gaze. She, as a cannon fodder, would not participate in the magnificent and heart-wrenching love drama between a talented man and a beautiful woman.
So she really treated Ye Congjian as a stranger and didn't even look at him. She tried the elasticity of the mattress she was lying on and said to Assistant Wen, "This mattress is very elastic."
Assistant Wen lay on the mattress, sliding his limbs on the mattress like a frog, hopping back and forth, and said, "It's quite comfortable. It won't be uncomfortable to lie down like this."
Lin Shichu also moved his body, here and there, constantly trying the condition of different parts of the mattress.
She raised her head suddenly and was about to continue the discussion with Assistant Wen when she saw Ye Congjian looking at her with an expressionless and sharp gaze, as if he was very disgusted.
Lin Shichu glanced at him calmly, just like she would look at any other stranger. She had no interest in exploring Ye Congjian's warning look, and didn't care whether his expression was ugly or not.
Then he continued to talk to Assistant Wen with laughter.
Ye Congjian, who was ignored by Lin Shichu, felt uncomfortable. He really hoped that Lin Shichu would be more tactful and not show that he knew him in front of Wen Chuyu, but when Lin Shichu really did so, he didn't know why, but he felt uncomfortable again, a little aggrieved and annoyed, and couldn't tell what he felt.
Lin Shichu didn't even glance at him from beginning to end, and Assistant Wen was lying down and didn't see Ye Congjian at all. So until Wen Chuyu and Ye Congjian passed by them, the two groups of people inadvertently passed each other like strangers on the street.
"Brother Ye, what do you think of this pillow? Isn't it cute?" Wen Chuyu asked Ye Congjian while holding a duck-shaped pillow.
But after a long while, she didn't hear Ye Congjian's answer, so she called out again in surprise: "Brother Ye! Brother Ye! Didn't you hear what I said just now? You didn't even answer me!"
"What did you say?" Ye Congjian finally came to his senses and asked apologetically.
"I was asking you if this pillow looks good, but you ignored me! Were you distracted because you were thinking about work? I told you not to skip work to accompany me shopping, but you insisted on doing so. After you came here, you were distracted all the time. Really..." Wen Chuyu said with a pout, as if she was angry and resentful.
"I'm sorry. I was just thinking about some things in the company. I was wrong. Can Chuyu forgive me this time? I promise I won't be distracted again." Ye Congjian said apologetically, and praised the pillow she chose. "Chuyu has a good taste. This pillow is cute and matches your temperament very well."
He hurriedly changed the subject because he felt guilty and because he had lied. He was not thinking about the company's affairs just now, but was wondering why Lin Shichu was so abnormal, whether he was playing hard to get and thinking of an alternative way to attract his attention.
Ye Congjian absentmindedly echoed Wen Chuyu's words, but while she was picking other pillows, his eyes involuntarily looked at Lin Shichu.
Lin Shichu was talking to Assistant Wen at the moment, lying on her side. I don't know what happy things she said, but her smile was as beautiful as a flower, as if her whole body was emitting a warm and joyful aura, and people couldn't help but laugh along with her when they saw her.
Ye Congjian's eyebrows were almost twisted into knots. How could she smile so brightly in front of other men? She was lying in the same bed with a man! It's okay to be in the same bed, but they were so close to each other. It was really indecent. Men and women should not be intimate with each other. Don't they know to keep a distance?
