Accidental Love

Chapter 63: Zheng Shuyi Could Understand How Shi Yan Felt.

The rain gradually stopped, leaving only the faint insect sounds hidden in the rustling wind. Those who were sleeping wouldn't be able to hear these at all.

Inside.

Zheng Shuyi was lying on the pillow with her sweaty hair scattered all over.

Below the shoulders, half of her back was naked and exposed. Under the soft light from the chandelier, the redness of her cheeks was extraordinarily obvious. 

Her eyes looked at the clock on the side, the hands were pointing at 2:30, yet her flushed face still hasn't completely faded.

However, the person on the side still hasn't completely settled down yet.

Shi Yan hugged her from her side and kissed her back, bringing electric-like itchiness.

In the huge room, the air seemed to be very thin.

Zheng Shuyi closed her eyes. Her eyebrows were trembling and with every breath, she could smell the ambiguousness in the air.

"No more" She shrank towards the side of the bed and pushed Shi Yan away, "I still need to work tomorrow, you're so annoying.

Shi Yan's kiss stopped at the back of her neck. He brushed away the hair beside her face and then stood up.

Then take a shower and sleep."

But Zheng Shuyi laid there motionlessly.

Until she felt Shi Yan's hand touch her leg and was about to pick her up, she immediately sat up reflexively.

And then put on her night robe and got off the bed after pushing him away.

"I can do it myself, don't have to bother you."

Their inexplicable relationship like an old couple for the past few days collapsed completely in this one night.

When Zheng Shuyi stepped into the bathroom and closed the door, her last bit of strength was used. She leaned against the wall as her sore waist and legs slowly slid down.

Opposite the wall was a giant piece of marble. Under the bright reflection of the lights, it had the effect of a mirror.

Zheng Shuyi looked at the reflection of herself and the scenes just now returned to her head.

She took a deep breath, raised her hand, and saw the circle of a red mark on her wrist. Her breathing became scorching again.

She almost turned crazy trying not to think of the past. She put her palms against the wall, trying to use the cold feelings to ease the burning on her.

So Shi Yan wasn't like what she said he was.

But it wasn't completely objective.

It wasn't that he only had a reaction when she sat on her legs.

Kissing, caressing, even just the lingering touch between the neck, felt like a bomb about to be exploded.

What was even more unbelievable was.

Zheng Shuyi found out that she was the same.

Moreover, she felt like from now on, she could never respond to him calling her "darling".

Until now, every time she thought of how Shi Yan called her like that and the series of events that followed, she felt like she was about to suffocate.

Every time he said it, the more excited he became and the more she had to bear.

But she wished him to continue, using that extreme warmness when he said it.

He clearly knew that it would cast a spell on her, making her willingly satisfy his infinite desire.

Because of how exhausted she was, Zheng Shuyi just quickly washed herself and then walked out.

Back to the bedroom, she looked around, but Shi Yan wasn't anywhere to be seen.

A big living person couldn't possibly evaporate into thin air in his own house, so she didn't care much. But when she sat down by the bed and saw what was in the trash can, her emotions were aroused again.

But no matter how ashamed she was to face it, she still had to clean it. Otherwise, when the housekeeping lady sees this tomorrow, it would make her even more embarrassed.

So when Shi Yan came in, he saw Zheng Shuyi squatting by the trash can and organizing.

He silently walked behind her.

"I can do it."

Hearing him, Zheng Shuyi's hands shook and instead became faster. She quickly tied a knot, got up, then used her leg to push it further.

Then she pretended to be calm and raised her chin to ask him, "When did you buy them?"

Shi Yan looked at it, then seemed to try very hard to think before replying, "Don't remember."

Zheng Shuyi felt like he might be embarrassed, although this possibly wasn't very big, "Then you must have planned ahead really well."

Shi Yan looked at where her feet were and then looked back at her eyes. He nodded naturally, "Mm, I have been dreaming to be with you for a very long time."

Although this sounded a little pornographic, as long as she didn't think of what happened just now, it could be considered as a compliment.

Therefore, Zheng Shuyi's chin rose even higher, "Then you're sexually interested in me?"

"I thought my previous actions already gave you the answer."

Zheng Shuyi's chin went back down again.

She should've known when alone, this person never knew how to be embarrassed.

To hide her embarrassment, she reached out and pushed Shi Yan on the chest. But instead, she got grabbed by him and was pulled into his arms.

Now that their distance got closer, Zheng Shuyi smelled a faint smell of smoke.

Did you go smoking?"

"What's so surprising about that," Shi Yan lowered his head and rubbed his chin against her hair. He even had a sense of contentment in his voice, "Don't you think you're worth a cigarette after sex?"

Zheng Shuyi didn't expect that she could hear such a straightforward and a little unpleasant compliment from him.

But even so, she felt like his tone was as sexy as when he called her "darling".

The second half of the night, for Zheng Shuyi, was a rare deep sleep since many days.

For the past few days, the two haven't broken through the last level of intimacy, and Zheng Shuyi always felt somewhat restrained when she slept in his arms.

Today, she felt extremely tired, but still didn't forget to ask for hugs and be coaxed unscrupulously.

The last second before she lost her consciousness, she vaguely remembered that she was sticking to Shi Yan like an octopus.

Under such circumstances, it was impressive that they could still get up on time.

At dawn, Shi Yan stood in the cloakroom organizing his shirt. His expression was serious, back to his dignified appearance.

And Zheng Shuyi was half leaning against the table, watching him slowly wearing a tie with enjoyment.

When he turned around, Zheng Shuyi suddenly smiled and opened her arms to him.

Probably because of the look in these eyes last night, Shi Yan no longer needed to guess her intentions. He went up to her, hugged her, and kissed her on the forehead.

Zheng Shuyi smiled with satisfaction and then walked outside with him with a serious expression.

After all, she knew that as soon as she left this room, there was the lady who made breakfast and the driver waiting to bring them to the company who would be keeping an eye on them. Shi Yan's face immediately changed, showing a dead look of "we just slept on the same bed but we don't really know each other that well".

Sure enough, when Shi Yan sat at the dining table, he was a completely different person from last night.

After several minutes, Zheng Shuyi couldn't bear the silence anymore. She gave him several looks, but he didn't seem to have any intention to speak.

So Zheng Shuyi could only chat with her phone.

She took out her phone and glanced at it and saw that several people in a group chat were discussing something. She asked casually, "I saw my colleagues talking about how your Mingyu stop loaning to Chen Yao Real Estate, why is that? 

"Strict loan investment and capital use are the focus of bank risk control. Stopping the loan to Chen Yao Real Estate is a necessary step for banks to avoid financial risks, do you have a concern with that?"

Zheng Shuyi: ""

No, I just wanted to listen to gossip.

Those who don't know will probably think we lied in bed last night talking about the necessary steps for banks to prevent financial risks. 

"Nothing."

"Then eat."

Thanks to Shi Yan's heartless actions on the dining table, when Zheng Shuyi arrived at the office, no one could tell that she looked tired because she was half dead in bed last night, they could only guess that she stayed up all night and worked overtime again for some important person's interview.

Even working so hard while her finger was injured, everyone couldn't help but remark how hardworking she was.

After returning from seven days of leave, many colleagues who weren't very busy came to ask about her injury. It wasn't until the chief editor arrived did everyone fully enter work mode.

"Hey, let me tell you something."

Kong Nan rolled her chair over with a glass of juice and whispered, "This morning I heard Kan Weiyi and the others say that Xu Yuling is going to the branch company at Ning Zhou this June?"

"I know," Zheng Shuyi said with a nod, "After I returned home that day the editor-in-chief already told me."

"So it really was because of that?

Kong Nan looked at Zheng Shuyi with disbelief.

Until now, the story of Xu Yuling making rumors hasn't spread throughout the company yet. Kong Nan thought that the matters hadn't been solved and the executives were still thinking about what to do. She didn't expect that the consequences were already set a long time ago.

The reasons why the executives didn't tell everyone could be understandable. One was to prevent some unnecessary gossip, and another was to give some face to the old employees.

"Do you know, she told others that she wanted to change the environment and that the work pressure here at Jiang City is too big, so that's why she wanted to go to the branch company. Kong Nan rolled her eyes as she said "If I were you, I'd go tell my real boyfriend about this, then she could only leave in shame."

"There's no need," Zheng Shuyi took her coffee and clinked glasses with the juice in Kong Nan's hand, "I'm already very satisfied with the results, and, do you think my boyfriend's part of the mafia? Our magazine publisher has nothing to do with him, nor does he have any connections. What, you want him to come in and beat her up?"

Kong Nan laughed dryly, "What's the difference between your boyfriend's background and a mafia from 100 years ago?"

After this, the two finished chatting and returned to work.

Coffee has always been consumed more on Mondays. Many people brought their weekend laziness to work and combined with the natural Spring sleepiness, the entire office building was not as lively as usual.

Until 5pm in the afternoon.

As dusk approached and the sky grew darker, the sound of keyboards were particularly silent.

A girl who has usually been very noisy suddenly gasped "Oh!" as she looked at her phone. Then, everyone else's phone beeped one after another.

Zheng Shuyi was no exception, except that she picked her phone up a little later. When she finished reading the message, Kong Nan had already cast her eager gossip glances.

The news that everyone received was the same, coming from a few pictures posted by an ordinary person on Weibo.

The pictures had Song Lelan in the hospital hugging another middle-aged man.

It was normal for a famous singer's private life to explode the news, but what made the whole financial team shocked was the middle-aged man in the picture.

Zheng Shuyi looked through these pictures over and over again. Her eyes went from extreme disbelief to shock to tremor and couldn't even speak.

How, how come it's, Qin Xiaoming?

The posture of the two in the pictures confirmed their ambiguous relationship. One of them even showed Qin Xiaoming's arms around Song Lelan, his hands, his hands were even on her waist.

Zheng Shuyi and Kong Nan looked at each other for a second, and after confirming the information in her eyes, she suddenly ran for the balcony.

The call to Shi Yan was picked up after a long time.

"Where, where are you?"

Zheng Shuyi's voice trembled slightly. Before she even asked if he saw the news on the Internet yet, he said, "I'm at the hospital. Qin Shiyue got into a car accident."

"Ah?! What?!

Before the first wave of shock went, another one came already. Zheng Shuyi exclaimed, "Car accident?! Where is she? Is she okay?"

"She's alright now,

Shi Yan said, "It wasn't too serious."

But Zheng Shuyi couldn't tell from his tone whether he was trying to comfort her or it was actual information, "Which hospital?"

"Jiang City General Hospital."

"I'm coming."

Zheng Shuyi didn't even take her bag as she quickly went down stairs and reached her hand out for a taxi.

After getting in the car, she was still as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

One was because of the situation Qin Shiyue was in, two was because the man Song Lelan was hugging was Qin Shiyue's dad, Shi Yan's brother-in-law.

All the other colleagues were caring about how Qin Xiaoming's sudden appearance with Song Lelan would bring an impact on Mingyu's stocks, but Zheng Shuyi only worried about whether Shi Yan would get emotionally impacted by this.

After all, that time when she talked about his sister, he smiled so happily.

Twenty minutes later, the car stopped in front of the hospital.

Zheng Shuyi quickly got out of the car and rushed in with high heels still on. When she reached the third floor of Building B, she was already sweating.

Shi Yan was standing in the corridor waiting for her.

Zheng Shuyi ran towards him and asked while panting, "Is Xiao Yue really alright?"

"She's fine, she's just fainted from the shock. The doctor checked, it was just some skin injuries."

Shi Yan motioned her to look in the ward.

Through the visiting glass, Qin Shiyue was lying on the bed and talking to a nurse.

Zheng Shuyi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"I told you she's fine already, why did you come here in such a hurry?"

Zheng Shuyi wanted to glare at him after hearing this.

Do you think everyone can be as calm as you after running into a situation?

But thinking of something else, she didn't want to glare at him anymore.

"Oh right, you, have you seen the news?"

Zheng Shuyi knew that he must have received the news faster than her and didn't say it straightforwardly, "Those pictures about Mr. Qin."

"And Song Lelan?"

Shi Yan was still just as calm, "Yeah I saw."

Zheng Shuyi: "?"

"How can you still be so calm after this?"

Shi Yan pulled her towards him and kept silent after glancing at her.

Maybe people were like this after being emotionally impacted.

Zheng Shuyi could understand how Shi Yan felt.

She lowered her head, also with a lot of mixed feelings in her heart.

Shi Yan held her shoulders and tried to make her raise her head, "Are you okay?"

"I'm just like you, I also feel pretty uncomfortable."

"Why?

Zheng Shuyi was still shocked that the unreachable idol in her heart had such a relationship. She said to herself, "This is the closest I've got with my idol, and I can't believe that it's because she did such a thing with my boyfriend's brother-in-law. How did it turn out like this how come it's Mr. Qin and Song Lelan?"

"Everyone says that she was talented and virtuous, but she, how can she do such a thing?"

"And she says that she'll forever sing about love, ridiculous."

"Doesn't her face hurt from that?"

Shi Yan: ""

He looked up, towards the woman behind Zheng Shuyi, and said quietly, "Sister."
