Chapter 465 Wen Zhixia x Shen Jiachen (Thirty-six)
Wen Zhixia stared at his face. Just looking at that face, it was hard for her to say that she had no feelings, but she was rational.
She said, "I don't want to lie to you. It's normal for me to be attracted by beautiful things."
Shen Jiachen showed a shy smile on his face. Why did Wen Zhixia suddenly praise his good looks?
Before he could stop laughing, he heard Wen Zhixia say, "But I want to take everything home, unless it's something nice or exciting."
Shen Jiachen looked at her, and Wen Zhixia asked in confusion: "And senior, all in all, we have only met a few times, and we have very little time to spend together. You don't know me, and I don't know you."
"I also wanted to start off as friends with you." Shen Jiachen was a little embarrassed: "But you're too smart and saw through it at a glance."
"...It's hard not to see through it." Wen Zhixia couldn't help but mutter.
A colleague on the day shift had said that Shen Jiachen coming to the store three times a month was considered frequent, but it seemed that after she and Shen Jiachen got to know each other, Shen Jiachen would clock in at the store every night, order a drink and a cake, and sometimes he would sit there all night long, but in fact he hardly touched anything.
Wen Zhixia has also received many confessions, and it would be a lie if she said she couldn't tell, but Shen Jiachen was the only suitor who was different.
"Senior, with your conditions, it's easy to find someone with any qualifications you want, but why me?" Wen Zhixia looked at him.
"Who can tell if someone likes this kind of thing?" Shen Jiachen lowered his eyes: "Others are others, but Wen Zhixia only has you."
He took a slow, deep breath, raised his eyes again, and looked at Wen Zhixia very seriously: "I know that everything I say sounds like sweet talk. But I tell you sincerely that I have never been in a relationship before, nor have I been entangled with anyone else. You are the first girl I like."
"If it were me, I would also find these words ridiculous, but I am serious. It takes time to understand each other. Can you give me this time?" Shen Jiachen said, "If after understanding each other, you still don't trust or accept me, I promise that I will never bother you, okay?"
Wen Zhixia picked up the cup again, and drank a sip of water slowly under Shen Jiachen's gaze, then she put the cup down: "I'm very busy every day, I have to go to class and work part-time, I'm sorry, I don't have time for you."
"Just give me this opportunity." Shen Jiachen smiled and said, "You don't have to set aside time for me. I will find a way myself."
Wen Zhixia looked at Shen Jiachen and didn't answer him. She just said, "Let's eat."
Shen Jiachen nodded, picked up the chopsticks, and prepared to eat the frog again.
Wen Zhixia said: "If you can't eat it, don't eat it."
"It's edible." Shen Jiachen took a breath and said, "I just didn't prepare it."
Now he is mentally prepared. Even if it is a knife, as long as Wen Zhixia likes it, he wants to try it.
The frog had cooled down a bit in the bowl, not as hot as it was at the beginning, so it was more acceptable.
Wen Zhixia looked at Shen Jiachen eating the frog silently, and felt an indescribable emotion in her heart. She knew that he did it on purpose, so why did he still do this?
She really was a little unsure of Shen Jiachen.
The meal was quite "relaxing". It was Wen Zhixia who paid for the meal, and Shen Jiachen did not compete with her for it. After all, there was give and take, so didn't this mean more opportunities?
He walked to the car and opened the passenger door: "I'll take you back to school."
Wen Zhixia shook her head: "No, I can just go through this alley, it's very close."
Halfway through the meal, Shen Jiachen's phone kept ringing. When asked, he just said it was unimportant company matters, but why would he make so many calls for such unimportant matters?
Wen Zhixia said: "You should go back to the company soon. Aren't they urging you over there?"
Shen Jiachen took a deep breath. His phone rang about every ten minutes or so. He turned it to silent mode, but Wen Zhixia still noticed it.
Some things really need to be dealt with as soon as possible, so he didn't insist: "Okay, then I'll leave first. I'll treat you to dinner next time you're free, okay?"
Without waiting for Wen Zhixia to refuse, he quickly said, "You treated me to a meal today, so I have to treat you back."
Understanding what Shen Jiachen meant, Wen Zhixia just smiled and said, "Let's talk about it next time."
Shen Jiachen raised his hand, waved, and asked cautiously: "Now that you're here... can you send me a message? To make sure you're safe."
"Okay." Wen Zhixia said, "Go quickly."
Shen Jiachen smiled happily: "See you later Zhixia!"
"See you later, learn..."
Before she could finish her last word, Shen Jiachen said, "Just call me Jiachen."
Wen Zhixia paused: "See you later, Jiachen."
Then looking at Shen Jiachen's super bright smile, is it really necessary to be so happy?
Wen Zhixia lowered her eyes, kicked the small stones beside her lightly with her toes, and then walked towards the school.
She crossed the road, but finally couldn't help but look back. Shen Jiachen was still standing there. He saw her turning her head to look at him, and waved with a smile.
Wen Zhixia withdrew her gaze, turned around and left quickly.
Shen Jiachen got into his car only after Wen Zhixia disappeared. He did not forget to turn on the car music and fastened his seat belt before driving back to Shen's.
When he returned to his office, Shen Fang was already waiting for him, with the best tea on the coffee table in front of him.
He saw Shen Jiachen coming back, snorted, and continued to sip his tea.
Shen Jiachen walked over and sat on the other side of the sofa. He asked, "What do you want from me?"
Shen Fang put down the teacup, and he said, “Good thing, let me talk to you about my marriage with Mingxue.”
Shen Jiachen pushed the frame of his glasses on his nose and said, "I will not agree to a marriage. Give up."
Shen Fang didn't care about his rejection at all: "Ah Chen, I know that children of your age are all pursuing true love, but true love is not worth mentioning in front of interests. Marrying the Yu family will benefit us in every way. Their family has developed so well overseas. If our two families tie the knot, the company's overseas development in the next 20 years will definitely be better than you can imagine."
He couldn't help but feel happy just thinking about it. He had no ability, but his son was very capable. Shen Fang crossed his legs and said, "Besides, you and Mingxue are childhood sweethearts. You know each other very well. It's simply double happiness."
"I said, refuse." Shen Jiachen looked at Shen Fang: "Let's not talk about anything else, have you forgotten one thing."
Shen Fang smiled and said, “What else could I forget?”
Shen Jiachen looked at Shen Fang, his tone never changing: "I stayed for Jiazhou, not for Shen's, and certainly not for you. You can't make the decision on my marriage, and you can't make the decision, so don't pretend to be a loving father in front of me all day long, okay?"
