Accidental Love

Chapter 51: How Far is Jiang City? Shuyi Doesn't Know.

Such a good atmosphere disappeared instantly due to the driver, and Zheng Shuyi gave him an angry glare.

And Shi Yan's expression suddenly turned serious too, not a trace of casualness just now remained.

Zheng Shuyi sighed and thought for a long time. But after not finding a chance to say what she wanted again, she turned it into a muffled sentence, "If you want to think that way, then I guess I can't help it."

But as soon as she finished speaking she was stunned for a second.

Why does my tone sound like I'm a scum?

And why does Shi Yan seem like an unreasonable and jealous woman?

Once she accepted this thought, she was immersed in her imagination and couldn't help but giggle. She didn't even realize how strange her current appearance was.

For a second, when Shi Yan watched Zheng Shuyi be frustrated for a while and then smile like that, he felt that her IQ might be the same as her age.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Nothing."

Zheng Shuyi covered her mouth, but her mind was still in the play between the scum and jealous woman. She couldn't help but add, "Anyway, he and I are just ordinary friends."

"You have dinner with ordinary friends on Valentine's Day?"

""

Is that why you're so hostile towards him after meeting him for the first time?

She blinked, "How did you know?"

Shi Yan pressed his hand against the window and leaned there while studying Zheng Shuyi.

"The best way to not let someone know about something is just to not do it at all."

Zheng Shuyi's calm and ease were replaced with a guilty conscience because of his self-righteous tone.

"Made it sound like we were dating on Valentine's day. It's just that day we met when I was applying for my Visa. After waiting in line all afternoon, we had dinner together before leaving. I didn't even remember that it was Valentine's Day that day."

Shi Yan's expression turned serious again. "What Visa?"

Seeing that Shi Yan was somewhat anxious, she purposefully curled her lips and said with a pitiful look, "To America. Those days I was so heartbroken that I have decided to leave this sad place and start a new life in America."

After this, the anxious and nervous look on Shi Yan's face has long disappeared. Instead, it was replaced by a trace of imperceptible frustration.

"For what? How long?"

"I'm immigrating!" Zheng Shuyi poked his shoulder with her index finger, "I said I'm going to immigrate, have you been listening?"

Shi Yan sneered coldly.

The look in his eyes seemed to say, "As if you're willing to".

""

Boring.

She lowered her head, fidgeted with a strand of hair, and said casually, "Business trip, an interview. But since I'm going there anyway, I'm going to collect some information too. I'd say seven eight nine or ten days."

"When?" Shi Yan asked.

After thinking for a while, Zheng Shuyi took out her phone to read the message from the organization where she applied for the visa. She read off the message, "The process went very smoothly. In normal circumstances, you should be good to go in two weeks."

"Are you going alone?"

He asked again.

"Of course, what else? You think I'll go with such a massive army like you?"

Zheng Shuyi was still reading the message on her phone. After saying this, she raised her head and said Shi Yan looking at her with a gentle look.

After a second, he said with a low voice, "Send me your hotel and flight information."

Zheng Shuyi pursed her lips and made a weird smile for a while before whispering, "Didn't know you were so caring before."

Shi Yan: ""

As soon as he looked at him, Zheng Shuyi immediately put away her smile and stopped joking around with him. She said seriously, "Yu You is going to America soon too. Maybe if we meet we can help each other."

Before Shi Yan could speak, she had already made an "X" gesture with her hands in front of her chest. She blabbered, "Don't be enigmatic with me you enigmatic wizard. Yu You and I are just normal friends, more normal than normal. Rather than imagining things between me and him, you should go worry about Qin Shiyue, she's the one who needs help here."

"I don't have such rich imaginations," Shi Yan looked out of the window and said flatly, "I don't have that much time to do so either."

After that, Zheng Shuyi suddenly leaned to his side and asked, "Why don't you care about your niece anymore?"

Coincidentally, Shi Yan received the message. He looked down beside him and said, "Do you really think I came here for her?"

The corners of Zheng Shuyi's mouth curled up mysteriously as she said, "Then you just let him get in another man's car?"

"What's wrong with that?" Shi Yan put away his phone and said with a hit of arrogance in his eyes, "You think our family raised a little fool?"

No, your niece, is super cunning.

Zheng Shuyi nodded honestly, "You don't know what stupid things your little fool has done today."

"Achoo!"

Without any warning, Qin Shiyue sneezed in the car.

"Do you want to turn on the heater?"

Yu You asked.

Qin Shiyue covered her mouth with a tissue and shook her head. But after looking at Yu You, she nodded again.

Yu You casually tapped the heat button, and soon, a warm breeze blew out.

They were already halfway there, and the amount of communication they had was almost zero.

After being blown by the warm air, Qin Shiyue could no longer sit still.

She adjusted her sitting position and leaned her upper body to one side. Her eyes drifted to Yu You over and over again.

"Mr. Yu, I heard that your company is in the CBD1CBD: Central Business District?"

"Yeah," Yu You turned the steering while at the intersection and looked out of the window, "What's wrong?"

Qin Shiyue nodded, "Oh, no wonder you looked very familiar. I often work in the CBD too, maybe we've met before."

"Maybe," Yu You's tone was flat, but he wouldn't want to end the conversation with her speaking last, "Which company do you work at in CBD?"

Qin Shiyue: ""

She lowered her head and scratched her nails, "Guo Jing."

"Oh? A business industry?"

"I guess, I can pull the entire country's GDP all by myself."

Yu You smiled, "Sales champion?"

"No, spending champion."

""

After a long silence, Yu You just smiled and didn't comment on Qin Shiyue's words.

Ten minutes later, the car stopped outside Bay of Cloud's gate.

Since Qin Shiyue returned, thinking that she was independent now, her family bought a house for her here.

But since Shi Yan also lived here, her house was empty most of the time.

However, Qin Shiyue sat in the passenger seat and didn't move for a long time.

Without urging her either, Yu You just tapped the steering wheels with his finger over and over again.

Qin Shiyue studied him with the corner of her eyes.

He knew everything, but he didn't do anything.

Looks like I can't expect him to take the initiative to add WeChat.

Qin Shiyue took out her phone and said, "Mr. Yu, can we add each other on WeChat?"

Yu You smiled and nodded, "Sure."

After adding him, she really couldn't stay any longer.

But Yu You's blurry attitude made Qin Shiyue feel uneasy.

She couldn't figure out his meanings nor understand his attitude.

He looked gentle and polite, but he also seemed to be a thousand miles away.

And, Qin Shiyue wasn't a very patient person either.

She had been living abroad for a few years and did not like these cat-chasing games. So when she got out of the car, she held the door with her arm, bent over, and poked her head in.

Her pair of smiling eyes were fixed on Yu You.

"Mr. Yu, do you have a girlfriend?"

Yu You looked up and said in a flat tone, "No."

Qin Shiyue raised her eyebrows at him. "Then what do you think of me?"

Yu You was still smiling, "You're great."

Qin Shiyue felt much more settled now.

Now all I have to do is

She looked at Yu You and smiled even bigger, revealing two small dimples.

In fact, she didn't have much experience in chasing men. When she was studying abroad, most of her classmates expressed their feelings directly, and she didn't even have the concept of "chasing".

Moreover, she had heard from Zheng Shuyi that Yu You have been traveling abroad for many years too. Maybe he would be more likely to accept the style they use overseas.

Therefore, regardless of her blushing face, Qin Shiyue whispered, "Then may I come to your house?"

A few days later, while Zheng Shuyi was busy working, she suddenly thought of Qin Shiyue.

During the lunch break, she sent a message to her while making herself some coffee.

Zheng Shuyi: Oh, by the way, I didn't get to ask you the other day, but what happened after Yu You brought you home?

Zheng Shuyi: Did anything happen?

Qin Shiyue: Don't mention it.

Zheng Shuyi: What's wrong?

Qin Shiyue: His family is too poor.

Zheng Shuyi: Huh?

Zheng Shuyi felt that Yu You's family conditions were excellent. One of his parents was a high school principal, another was the chancellor of a whole college department. His family conditions shouldn't be even related to the word "poor".

Of course, if Qin Shiyue insisted on having a suitable match, then there was nothing for her to say.

But when Qin Shiyue first met him, she knew his situation already.

Just as Zheng Shuyi was trying hard to figure it out

Qin Shiyue: Do you know why I said that his family is poor?

Qin Shiyue: Hehe, I feel that the atmosphere was about right, so I asked him if I came to go to his house.

Qin Shiyue: He said there was no door.2No door, or not even a door, is the direct translation of a way to say "No Way" in Chinese.

Qin Shiyue: [smile]

""

Unconsciously, she clenched her fists.

Zheng Shuyi finally realized the pain that Bi Ruoshan must have felt back then.

She immediately went to notify Shi Yan.

Zheng Shuyi: Go teach your niece a lesson. She's so dumb with relationships.

After a long time, Shi Yan sent some words that were extremely dazzling to Zheng Shuyi's eyes.

Shi Yan: Then why don't you teach her?

""

Shi Yan: I think you're quite good at it.

On the surface, it looked like he was praising her.

But since it was from Shi Yan, no matter how she looked at it, it looked very enigmatic.

Even her coffee lost its taste.

At the end of the month, Zheng Shuyi received her visa as expected.

This was the first time she was going to the United States, and she was going alone. Her nervousness far exceeded her excitement, causing her to barely get any sleep the night before she needed to go.

In her short sleep, she dreamed that she got lost in America. Standing in the strange streets, she didn't know what to do. She cried as she held her phone, but not a single call would go through.

This dream caused her to feel very drowsy the next day while boarding the plane. When she sat down on her seat in the economy class, she immediately put on her sleep mask and fell asleep.

Only when the plane was about to take off and the flight attendant came to check for safety procedures did she take her sleep mask off.

As she rubbed her neck, she fastened her seat belt.

She accidentally saw that the woman sitting next to her looked a little familiar.

Zheng Shuyi has always been good at recognizing people. After taking a few more looks, she was certain that this was one of the many secretaries outside of Shi Yan's office.

When she came to this conclusion, the secretary also smiled at her.

"Miss Zheng, long time no see."

"Long time no see," Zheng Shuyi nodded with a smile, "What a coincidence, didn't expect we'd be on the same flight."

The secretary pursed her lips and smiled again.

Zheng Shuyi slept very soundly on the plane. The secretary had to wake her up both for her meals and for her to fill in the entry card before landing.

She knew all the English words on the entry card, but after all, it was her first time in the U.S. Since this paperwork was also very important, she was very cautious while filling it in.

On the other hand, the female secretary next to her didn't take much time at all. She has obviously been to America many times before.

"Um, can I take a look at your entry card? I want to see if I made any mistakes."

"I can help you fill it in," replied the secretary with a smile.

"No no, it's okay, I can do it."

The female secretary gave her entry card to Zheng Shuyi.

As she double-checked the information on the cards, she suddenly said with surprise, "Oh! We're in the same hotel too! Are you here for a business trip too? What a coincidence!"

The secretary took a deep breath and nodded at her, "Yeah, what a coincidence."

A coincidence, meaning when she was sitting comfortably in the office, she was suddenly informed by Shi Yan that she had to go to the United States. In addition, she didn't need to do anything and all she had to do was to accompany Zheng Shuyi and make sure not to lose her.

Because she had a companion, her first trip to the United States gave her a really good experience. With her company, they didn't encounter any situations and smoothly arrived at the hotel.

Moreover, the female secretary went to school here, so she was very familiar with all kinds of delicious food and fun places to go. Zheng Shuyi always went to walk around and play with her whenever she had the time. It could be said that she was having so much fun she didn't really want to leave anymore.

Looking at all the photos that were updated every day on Zheng Shuyi's WeChat Moments, those who knew about it know that she was on a business trip. Those who didn't know would think that she was on vacation.

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye. After realizing that she was about to leave, she even felt a little reluctant.

Zheng Shuyi: 55555553The number 5 in Chinese is pronounced the same way as a crying noise (wu). When a series of 5s appear in texts, it means that one is sad.

Zheng Shuyi: What kind of fairy is your secretary? It's a pity that she had to be your secretary, she should really be a tour guide.

Shi Yan looked at his phone and sneered.

The secretary, who had a monthly salary of sixty or seventy thousand yuan, had to be a tour guide for her, and she didn't feel guilty about it at all.

Shi Yan: Had a good time?

Zheng Shuyi: What are you talking about? I came here to work.

Shi Yan looked out of the window. The clouds were thick and the morning light couldn't be seen.

Ever since Zheng Shuyi left, it has been raining for several days in a row in Jiang City. The weather was humid and heavy, and there was no sign of spring at all.

Shi Yan: How far is Jiang City?

Zheng Shuyi: Hmm?

Shi Yan: Shuyi doesn't know.

Zheng Shuyi connected the two sentences out loud, and then slowly smiled. She shook her head and continued the poem, "Shi Yan doesn't want to see me go."
