Accidental Love

The periodic yelling from the megaphone had too much of an impact on Shi Yan, he even wasn't too sure what was going on in Zheng Shuyi's brain right now.

And Zheng Shuyi's words made it quite impossible for him to come up with a reply.

After a moment of silence, Shi Yan took Zheng Shuyi's hand and decided to skip this topic.

"It's getting late, let's go home now."

"Mm, you're right, it's getting late."

Unexpectedly, Zheng Shuyi agreed with his words, "It's time to go home."

When things weren’t normal, there must be something wrong. Shi Yan stood still and took a few looks at her carefully. After making sure she wasn't trying to cause trouble, he called the driver over.

However, as soon as she got into the car, Zheng Shuyi said, "To the Imperial Palace."

The Imperial Palace was her apartment.

The driver didn't think much and stepped on the gas.

Shi Yan glanced sideways at Zheng Shuyi. He loosened his tie, and then asked carefully, "Aren't we going home?"

Zheng Shuyi looked away from his face, "Yeah, I'm doing what you said."

"Going back to my home."

Shi Yan looked at her for a moment, then retracted his gaze and calmly instructed the driver with his indifferent tone.

"Go to Bay of Clouds."

The driver said okay as he turned the wheel and went in a different direction.

Seeing this, Zheng Shuyi immediately raised her voice, "I'm going back to my Imperial Palace!"

The driver held the steering wheel at a loss and looked at Shi Yan in the rear view mirror.

But this time, Shi Yan just calmly nodded, "Okay, we'll listen to her."

Zheng Shuyi: ?

She turned her head over in surprise. Seeing that Shi Yan was also looking at her, she immediately looked away, pretending that nothing had happened.

Shi Yan did not beg her to stay as she expected, not one sentence.

Would it kill you to say a few nice words? 

Zheng Shuyi became even angrier.

At the entrance to the apartment complex, Zheng Shuyi stepped out of the car angrily. After taking a few big steps toward the gate, she found that Shi Yan was following her.

She turned her head and appeared in Shi Yan's eyes.

In the dark, the frame of his lenses reflected slims of light, but they weren't as catching as his eyes.

When staring straight at her, it was as if she was the only person in his whole world. His eyes showed a hint of heat that could only be seen in affection.

In a public place like this, he didn't say anything, but his look seemed to be flirting.

Zheng Shuyi felt disappointed in herself by blushing for a few seconds.

Then she turned around.

She doubted that he didn't know how to coax and only knew how to seduce.

At the elevator, Zheng Shuyi walked in, and Shi Yan silently followed her too.

The two didn't speak as the elevator slowly rose up.

Until a few seconds later.

"What are you doing?"

Zheng Shuyi turned her head over and raised her chin, "I'm going back home, why are you following me."

“No reason."

Shi Yan stood beside her as if they were just neighbors who happened to meet in the elevator, "Planning to sleep in pink sheets for a night."

"…Be ashamed of yourself, did I ever allow you to stay at my house tonight?"

"Then what should I do? Shi Yan stood upright as he held her fingers. He asked calmly, "Are you really not coming home with me?"

"No."

A few seconds later, Zheng Shuyi used the last bit of her moral principles and shook away his hand, "Shi Yan, let me tell you, I really care about my reputation. You made me look bad today in front of my idol, I'll never forget about this!"

After speaking, the elevator arrived and the door opened. Zheng Shuyi walked out directly. 

In the empty corridor, she stepped on her high heels loudly.

In short, she tried to make a strong imposing manner.

But when she arrived at her door, she suddenly paused.

She reached for her clothes, then patted her pants, then stopped.

Shi Yan was right behind her, looking patiently at her.

After a long time, he asked with a smile, "What, are you praying again?"

Zheng Shuyi: "…"

She didn't say anything and turned around for the elevator.

Shi Yan didn't continue to embarrass her and didn't ask more. He followed up to her, now showing the slightest impatience on his face.

When they reached downstairs and Shi Yan went to hold her hand again, she didn't pull away this time.

She just had her head lowered, still looking pretty angry.

Even after getting in the car, Zheng Shuyi just sat in the corner and didn't say anything.

The reason was that she ran to the hospital in such a hurry that she didn't bring anything but her phone.

Which made the half-hour runaway plan end in failure. 

——

"What do you want to eat tonight?"

After arriving home, Shi Yan took off his jacket and walked to the kitchen.

Without even taking a look at where he was going, she turned her back towards him and went for the rooms, leaving a cold sentence, "Don't want to eat. No appetite."

Shi Yan rolled up his sleeves and said without hurry, "You sure? I don't know when the next time I cook myself will be."

Zheng Shuyi paused and then turned around like a compass. Sure enough, Shi Yan was already standing by the cooking table.

"Are you apologizing?"

Shi Yan nodded calmly, "Can I?"

"Then that depends on how good your cooking skills are."

A smile was finally shown in his eyes as he turned to open the fridge, "I think it's alright, what do you want to eat? "

Zheng Shuyi: "Man Han Imperial Feast."1This is one of the most famous feasts in Chinese History. This dated back to the Qing Dynasty and was for the Emperor's birthday, composing of at least 108 dishes.

“……”

——

In the end, of course, Shi Yan didn't manage to create a Man Han Feast, only three simple dishes and a soup.

But after all this time, Zheng Shuyi’s anger went away a little and actually sat down.

"I'm not very hungry. If it doesn't taste very good, I won't eat."

"Mm."

However, she was stunned after just one mouthful of the Chinese cabbage soup, and then she quietly buried her head into her bowl.

She hated that her taste buds were so disappointing, hated that her mouth wasn't listening to her control, hated that Shi Yan had been hiding this trump card this whole time.

Half an hour later, Zheng Shuyi looked at her clean bowl and said while wiping her mouth with a napkin, "I'll forgive you this time. If you lie to me in the future, even if you become a Michelin chef, my anger won't go away in the slightest."

Shi Yan put down his chopsticks and slowly served her a bowl of soup. Then he said, "Actually, I'm not really lying to you, right?"

Zheng Shuyi froze and then carefully thought about it.

It seemed that he was right.

Shi Yan never said that "Song Lelan isn't my sister" or anything like that.

"Then you know that I like her so much, but why didn't you tell me?"

When she thought about it, she still felt angry, "Such a big thing and you didn't even mention a word."

"I didn't mention?"

Shi Yan pushed the bowl of soup to her, "Last time I went to eat noodles with you, I asked if you wanted to talk to her."

Shi Yan's words instantly pulled Zheng Shuyi back into the flashback of that night.

The happiness of that day replayed in her mind, but this time, now that the truth was unrevealed, the scenes turned black and white.

"Then since she doesn't work in your company, what does she do?"

"She? Just dance and sing every day, nothing much."

"What are you smiling at?"

"Nothing."

"Then can you let me see her picture? I'm a little curious."

"I don't have a picture of her."

Zheng Shuyi slowly clenched her fists.

"Shi Yan."

Hearing that her tone didn't sound right, Shi Yan paused for a second, and then raised his head.

But before she even said anything, she already saw the same smile on his face as that night.

At that time, she thought that Shi Yan was very happy because she was eating with him.

It turned out he was watching a comedy show for free.

"What is it?"

Shi Yan asked gently.

Zheng Shuyi quickly stood, "You're so annoying!"

Seeing her running back to her room angrily without even getting to wear her slippers, Shi Yan rested on hand on the back of the chair, relaxed, and then – laughed out loud.

But three hours later, when Shi Yan finished with work and was about to go to his room to shower, his laugh couldn't come out anymore.

When he turned the doorknob for the second time with some extra force, the door still wouldn't open.

Locked?

Shi Yan raised his hand and knocked on the door, "Shuyi?"

No reply.

"Shuyi? Are you asleep?"

"Shuyi?"

After a long time, a voice finally came from inside.

"The sofa in the living room is big. The pillow in the guest room is soft. You can choose."

“……”

——

During these three hours, Zheng Shuyi felt like she was an idiot. She rubbed the pillow with happiness and then grabbed her hair with anger.

The reason she was happy was that she now has such a close relationship with a famous celebrity.

Her boyfriend's sister!

The kind who usually sat and eat together during Chinese New Year and give her red envelopes!2It is a tradition during Chinese New Year to give children or the younger generation red envelopes, which usually contained money.

This was something that Zheng Shuyi never even dared to dream about.

The reason she was angry was that just after meeting her for the first time, she did such a stupid thing.

And Shi Yan just watched. He knew that Song Lelan was behind her and didn't even tell her.

The embarrassing scene in front of her boyfriend's sister/the famous idol, she still had goosebumps when she thought about it.

In these three hours, Song Lelan wasn't being idle either.

Since things have gone this far already, and the pictures were solid evidence, she didn't feel like doing useless struggles.

Even if it happened to be that 0.01% chance that the media didn't dig out Qin Xiaoming and her relationship, it would still create endless rumors.

After considering many aspects, Song Lelan finally decided to announce this secret she has been hiding for 20 years to the public at ten in the evening.

The second the message was sent out, it sent a shock to everyone except for a great number of Weibo users and some entertainment industry media workers.

Within ten minutes, everyone who had 4G network all knew about this news.

The relationships behind Qin Xiaoming weren’t that complicated. After the couple's relationship was announced, the media naturally figured out that Song Lelan was Shi Huaiman, Shi Wenguang's daughter, and Shi Yan's sister.

When all the social media apps were exploding, Zheng Shuyi had already pretty much accepted this fact. She was now sitting on the bed with her legs crossed and putting on body lotion.

But she was not at peace at all.

First, Kong Nan called her to confirm whether she read the information wrong. Then, Bi Ruoshan called, along with a shriek.

"Really!! Song Lelan!! She's your boyfriend's sister!"

Bi Ruoshan was very excited and her voice was very loud. Zheng Shuyi threw the phone aside, opened speaker mode, and continued to apply lotion.

"It's true, but you have to calm down my eardrum's breaking."

How could Bi Ruoshan calm down? If you suddenly learned that your bestie's boyfriend is a celebrity that everyone knew about, will you be calm?

In addition, she was drinking with a friend at the moment, and with the alcohol's help, it was taking a lot of effort for her just to say a complete sentence.

"Zheng Shuyi, you're such a bad friend!! Such big news and you kept it from me the whole time?!"

Zheng Shuyi sneered, "You might not believe me, but I just learned this today too."

“How is that possible! Shi Yan didn't even tell you this! That's going way too far!!"

"I know right!"

As she mentioned this, Zheng Shuyi's anger returned. She angrily threw the lid of the lotion on the side and said, "I locked him outside already. Before my anger goes away, don't even think about coming in."

Just as she finished, the room's door knob suddenly turned.

Half a second later, Shi Yan pushed open the door and walked in.

With the key still in his hand.

“……”

With almost a subconscious reaction, Zheng Shuyi jumped off the bed to get him out.

"Did I let you in! Get out get out! I'm still pissed!"

This time, Shi Yan was prepared and didn't get pushed away by her.

Seeing her doing useless motions in front of him, Shi Yan simply grabbed her hand, picked her up sideways, and threw her onto the bed.

With a "thump", before Zheng Shuyi realized, Shi Yan had already come over with his arms beside her shoulders.

The uneven breathing from the struggle hasn't calmed down yet, and now that the second her eyes met Shi Yan's, she held her breath.

With the dim light shining, the bedroom was very warm. The light also made Shi Yan's eyes seem deeper and deeper.

He calmly looked at her with his flashing bright eyes.

Being too gentle was a kind of seduction.

A second later, he reached out his hand and brushed away the hair on Zheng Shuyi's cheeks. He asked quietly, "What can I do to make your anger go away?"

Underneath his breathing, Zheng Shuyi felt the air was very thin and started to grow nervous from lack of air.

Shi Yan leaned even closer, with his breathing directly on her nose.

"Mm? Say something."

Then.

The phone beside the bellow suddenly came Bi Ruoshan's unscrupulous voice.

”Hahahaha, Mr. Shi, nice try with the make-up sex!"

“……”

At this moment.

Zheng Shuyi suddenly owned several suites.

――Dug all by her toes.3For those of you who forgot, this is referencing chapter 48 when Zheng Shuyi was being embarrassed by the screenshots Shi Yan sent and her "toes were digging into the ground and almost dug up a three-bedroomed house". Here, the scene is obviously much more embarrassing and that's why she dug out several suits! Haha o(≧∀≦)o
