Are all her actions under this man’s control?
This thought startled Shi Yi. If her guess was correct, then this man was too terrifying. Why was he doing this? Could he really be interested in her?
Shi Yi imdiately dismissed this idea. Would soone who liked you constantly put on an ice-cold face in front of you?
So, why was he doing this? Could it be that he was afraid that she, his fake girlfriend, would stir up so trouble? Or was it that this man had a strong desire for control and liked to have everything in the palm of his hand?
Shi Yi pondered carefully and felt that the last guess was the most likely. After all, there are all kinds of people in a big world, and soone like Feng Chengyu might have a special quirk.
Feng Chengyu didn’t say a word after dropping Shi Yi off at her apartnt complex. Watching the extended Lincoln disappear into the distance, Shi Yi beca even more certain of her speculation.
From Feng Chengyu’s behavior, he didn’t seem to have any interest in her. On the contrary, Shi Yi started to wonder if she had so unresolved grudge with him from a past life.
Shi Yi shrugged it off and decided not to dwell on it any longer. Feng Chengyu was a strange-tempered man, and it was none of her business. Anyway, it wouldn’t be long before she, his fake girlfriend, would leave for good.
In T City, Shi Yi didn’t have many friends besides Song Yi and Chu Yan. She called Chu Yan, hoping to arrange a get-together with her and Song Yi, but Chu Yan said she was going back ho to visit family this weekend, so Shi Yi had to give up.
Lying in bed, Shi Yi was bored and played with her phone for a while. She was contemplating whether to order takeout or go out for a big al when her phone suddenly vibrated.
Shi Yi looked at the screen and saw the na "Leng Yixiu." She frowned, wondering why she had his number saved when they had only t a few tis.
After listening to Shen Xu’s words, Shi Yi’s initial aversion to Leng Yixiu had turned into "extre dislike." So she didn’t hesitate to press the reject button.
She wanted nothing to do with a man like Leng Yixiu. But no sooner had she hung up than the phone rang again, it was Leng Yixiu.
"Is this ever going to end?!"
Annoyed, Shi Yi threw her phone aside. Finally, irritated by the persistent ringing, she decisively hung up and blocked Leng Yixiu’s number.
Finally, the world was quiet. Just then, her stomach started growling, breaking the silence of the room.
Shi Yi rolled off the bed and decided to go downstairs to get sothing to eat. But as she stepped out of the apartnt complex, she saw a familiar black car slowly pull up beside her.
The window rolled down, revealing a familiar handso face, "Miss Shi!"
Seeing Leng Yixiu, Shi Yi couldn’t hide her surprise, "What are you doing here?"
"Since Miss Leng didn’t answer my calls, I had to wait for you here."
"...."
Although Shi Yi found Leng Yixiu annoying, she didn’t show it on her face. Instead, she glanced at him indifferently and asked, "What brings you here, Mr. Leng?"
The man narrowed his eyes and gave a charming smile, "Is what you said to yesterday still valid, Miss Shi?"
"What did I say?"
"Hehe... Miss Shi, you really have a poor mory. It’s only been a day and you’ve already forgotten. Didn’t you say yesterday that you still owed a al?"
Owe him a al?
Shi Yi thought for a mont and recalled that indeed was the case, but wasn’t it because this man insisted on it?
"Mr. Leng, did you co all the way to my apartnt just for a al invitation?" Shi Yi replied with a forced smile.
"There’s no ti like the present, and I think today is perfect." The man smiled confidently.
"Sorry, Mr. Leng, I’m afraid I’m not available today."
"Oh? Miss Shi has other plans today?" The man frowned slightly and then said, "No worries, if Miss Shi is really busy, let’s do it next ti."
"That’s exactly what I think."
"Miss Shi, I see you’re all dressed up. Are you going out? It so happens I’m free today. Why don’t I give you a ride?"
Dressed up? Shi Yi frowned. She had just thrown on so random clothes and barely combed her hair. How was this dressed up?
Besides, if she accepted his ride, wouldn’t that give her away?
"No need, it’s too much trouble. I’ll just take a taxi," Shi Yi waved her hand.
"It’s not safe for a woman to take a taxi. Let give you a ride."
"No, no, taking a taxi is actually quite comfortable." Like she’d ride in his car - that’s even more dangerous.
Leng Yixiu insisted but then relented, "Alright, Miss Shi, if that’s the case, I won’t force you. I have so matters to attend to. Goodbye."
Relieved, Shi Yi waved to him happily, "Alright, goodbye!"
Watching Leng Yixiu’s car leave, Shi Yi finally exhaled deeply. She couldn’t understand why Leng Yixiu’s attitude towards her had suddenly done a 180. What was going on?
After sending Leng Yixiu away, Shi Yi was so hungry that her stomach was growling. She didn’t care about the environnt anymore and found a nearby western restaurant to satisfy her empty stomach.
Fortunately, the restaurant wasn’t busy, and the food ca quickly. Soon, she was enjoying a delicious steak. Just as she was savoring her al, a familiar male voice sounded above her.
"What a coincidence, Miss Shi. You’re here too."
Even though the man’s voice was low and seductive, in Shi Yi’s ears, it sounded like a demonic tone. Her fingers, holding the knife and fork, froze. After a long mont, she looked up at the man in front of her, forcing a stiff smile.
"Yes, what a coincidence, Mr. Leng. What are you doing here?" Shi Yi could almost feel how forced her smile was, with a thousand wild horses running through her mind.
This wasn’t a coincidence; it was fate playing tricks on her.
The man sat down opposite her and smiled, "I happened to be hungry and decided to grab a bite nearby. But Miss Shi, didn’t you have plans? Why are you here alone?"
