Chapter 117 Are you sure?
It was confirmed that Yunzhi did not suffer any loss.
Cheng Shuyan wore his usual gentle smile and gestured with one hand, "Please go ahead."
If it weren't for his grandfather's repeated nagging and even threats against him with his own body, he wouldn't have been able to come and meet this young lady today.
Is this the intelligent, generous, and understanding granddaughter that Grandpa was talking about?
Cheng Shuyan even wants her grandfather to download an anti-fraud app.
"You!" Miss Bai trembled with rage, clenching her teeth, each word uttered with all her might, "Bastards, I won't let you two get away with this."
Miss Bai stood up, glared fiercely at the two of them, picked up her bag, and turned to leave.
Yunzhi breathed a sigh of relief.
Cheng Shuyan smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, I've dragged you into this."
Just as Yunzhi was about to jokingly ask Cheng Shuyan to treat her to dinner, Miss Bai, who had returned, suddenly did something that surprised everyone.
She rushed to Yunzhi.
Miss Bai picked up the coffee that Yunzhi hadn't finished drinking and splashed it towards her face.
Fortunately, Yunzhi turned to the side in time, thus avoiding a serious injury to her face. However, her shirt was soaked, and the sticky feeling of the coffee made her very uncomfortable.
After splashing the water, Miss Bai strode away in her high heels.
Cheng Shuyan didn't have time to chase after him. She quickly pulled out a tissue and wiped herself while asking, "How are you? Are you alright? This madman!"
Yunzhi shook her head.
"It's nothing, just regular coffee, Mr. Cheng. Your blind date is quite unique, but you really dragged me into this mess."
She shrugged, trying to ease the tension in a half-joking tone.
Ultimately, this matter is not Cheng Shuyan's fault.
She could only accept her bad luck, but she would remember this Miss Bai.
Cheng Shuyan's brows furrowed into a deep frown.
His voice was filled with disgust. "Don't worry, I will definitely give you justice in this matter."
Yunzhi didn't take it to heart, her eyes crinkling with laughter, "Okay, then I'll wait."
Yunzhi glanced down at her half-wet shirt and thought with some regret that her plan to sit here and watch the sunset today had failed.
“Miss Yun, I’m sorry, if it weren’t for me… My home is nearby, why don’t you come to my house and change your clothes? As an apology, I would like to invite you to dinner.”
Cheng Shuyan suddenly extended an invitation.
"No need, I'll just go back and change." Yunzhi remained silent for a long time before finally rejecting the tempting suggestion.
She is conflicted.
On the one hand, she wanted to get close to Cheng Shuyan, but on the other hand, she didn't want to disturb Cheng Shuyan's peaceful life.
Not to mention, Cheng Shuyan actually has a girlfriend.
Although she didn't know why Cheng Shuyan was unwilling to make it public, she should have been tactful enough to keep her distance from him.
Mingming initially just wanted to see Cheng Shuyan alive with her own eyes.
I've become so greedy without even realizing it.
Yunzhi couldn't control her wildly beating heart.
She could only control herself and try her best not to see Cheng Shuyan.
"It's very cold today, are you sure?" Cheng Shuyan glanced at the weather outside.
Yunzhi was about to nod.
It is indeed cold today, but she took taxis the whole way, so there shouldn't be any problems.
After all, given her current condition, she can't drive, and she doesn't want to meet her maker so soon.
In the past, Cheng Shuyan would never have insisted.
He might even avoid some trouble.
But this time, looking at Yunzhi's face, he stubbornly wanted her to go back with him.
I had no other intentions; I just wanted to make it up to her.
"I hope what just happened didn't leave a bad impression on you, making you reluctant to interact with me."
Yunzhi paused in her nodding motion.
She looked helpless. "How could that be, Mr. Cheng? Do you think I'm such a person who can't distinguish right from wrong?"
"Then come back with me." Cheng Shuyan pursed his lips. He rarely felt this way anymore, this sense of urgency to do something or accomplish something.
He knew it was wrong, but he couldn't control himself.
In the end, Yunzhi still couldn't refuse him.
Ten minutes later, Yunzhi got into Cheng Shuyan's car.
Yunzhi looked out the car window at the bustling traffic, her mind a jumble of thoughts.
She turned her head to look at Cheng Shuyan's sharply defined profile. Why did she always feel that Cheng Shuyan was a bit of a scoundrel?
She helplessly held her forehead.
Despise your own wavering stance.
"Miss Yun, I'm not sure if I should ask this, but what's wrong with your foot? You seemed perfectly healthy just a couple of days ago. Of course, if you don't want to tell me, that's fine too."
Cheng Shuyan, who was driving, kept glancing at Yunzhi out of the corner of his eye and couldn't help but ask.
Yunzhi blushed and recounted the story about the nail. She sighed softly.
"I've learned my lesson this time. I'll never go barefoot on the beach again. Who knows what kind of traps might be hidden on such a beautiful beach?"
Cheng Shuyan's expression was solemn. "How could there be such an uncivilized person?"
When the light was red, he tapped his fingers on the steering wheel.
Yunzhi noticed that Cheng Shuyan seemed to be thinking about something and didn't disturb him.
Yunzhi woke up too early today, leaned back in her chair, and fell asleep in no time.
When she woke up, the car had already stopped in front of Cheng Shuyan's villa.
Her eyes, which had been heavy with sleep, instantly snapped awake.
Yunzhi looked around but couldn't find Cheng Shuyan. She thought he had already gone inside, but when she opened the car door, she saw him standing not far away smoking.
He leaned against the tree and soon exhaled a smoke ring that obscured his eyes, making it impossible for Yunzhi to discern his emotions.
Yunzhi stood there, stunned.
Does my brother smoke? How come she didn't know?
In my previous life, I never smoked in front of him. In fact, he always had a clean and refreshing smell, never smelling of smoke.
Is the resurrected Cheng Shuyan still the same Cheng Shuyan?
Yunzhi even suspected that this was a parallel world, otherwise why would there be so many things that did not match her memories?
'System, is Brother still the same Brother as before?' Yunzhi couldn't help but ask herself silently.
Soon, the familiar static sound echoed in her mind again.
[Host, rest assured, Cheng Shuyan is still the same Cheng Shuyan you know.]
[A reminder to the host: Cheng Shuyan used to not smoke, but he wouldn't smoke in front of the host.]
Human emotions are strange.
It is something the system cannot comprehend.
Yunzhi breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart ached even more.
Just then, Cheng Shuyan turned his head and saw Yunzhi.
He subconsciously extinguished the cigarette burning between his fingers.
After the cigarette was extinguished, he felt a little strange. Why was his first reaction to Yunzhi putting out the cigarette? And this action seemed as familiar as if he had rehearsed it a million times in his mind.
He couldn't find the reason, so he could only temporarily ignore these unusual signs in his life.
"Are you awake?"
"Um, I'm sorry to have taken up too much of your time." Yunzhi's eyes were slightly red, as if she were saying this to someone else through Cheng Shuyan.
