Chapter 24: She tried to steal my man
@ShiYu: A love. Photo.jpg
"Sometimes when I compare Shi Yu's pictures to mine, it makes me suspect that we're not capturing the same world."
"It's such a beautiful hand!"
"But this hand looks like a man's?"
"I am pretty sure it's a man's hand."
"There's also the rarely seen accompanying text! It might be just an emoji, but with the picture, it feels like it's suggesting something!"
"Is Shi Yu in love?"
"……"
What followed was an endless discussion about the topic. Jiang Yu, on the other hand, didn't pay any attention to it. She simply followed Wenshuo to take the president's private elevator to the top floor. Although there weren't many employees walking around during lunch break, she still attracted some attention.
Wenshuo knocked on the door, and soon after came Shen Yuchuan's voice: "Come in."
He opened the door to let Jiang Yu in, then closed it without entering.
"Brother." As soon as Jiang Yu entered, then leaned back lazily on the couch.
Shen Yu Chuan raised his eyes to look at her and smiled, " I finally assigned you a project but it got messy. Did Su Huanxuan offend you?"
She snorted, " Looking at her made my eyes hurt!"
"It looks like you are still offended" He understands Jiang Yu the most. In fact, she's not fussy about a lot of things, so for her to say that means she must've been quite upset. "Do you want me to..."
"No need big brother ..." She cut him off while waving her hand, "Defeating my love rival is something I have to do by myself!"
"A love rival?" Shen Yuchuan wondered for a moment if he was hallucinating.
Jiang Yu leaned on the arm of the sofa: "She tried to steal my man ..."
"Your man? Since when do you have a man?"
"I will have one, very soon."
"Jiang Yu!" He spoke in a serious tone.
"Why are you yelling at me?" She pouted, with a look full of resentment and dissatisfaction.
Shen Yuchuan was at a loss for words as he rubbed his forehead: "What kind of man is he? Explain it to me clearly."
"It's the guy I like. ..."
"Who?" Hasn't she been back for just a couple of days?
"Huo Shiqian..."
"Huo Shiqian?" Shen Yuchuan calmed down, he knows Huo Shiqian and has dealt with him a few times, so he is assured of his character. Besides, Jiang Yu is 25 years old. It's time to fall in love, so as not to worry about her traveling around again. But ...
"How did you two meet?"
Jiang Yu gave him a vague look: "Our mom and his mom are old classmates, and they set us up on a blind date ..."
Shen Yuchuan laughed, "So you're interested in him, but he's not interested in you?"
"You're really my brother..."
"Ahem ..." he restrained his facial expression before saying "Be careful and don't mess around."
"Got it…"
……
Huo Shiqian didn't get back to Yujingjiang County until after 9:00 p.m., and as soon as he opened the door, Jiang Yu came running over, "You're back?"
He had a bit of a headache when he saw the person who kept popping into his head throughout the afternoon.
He's aware of all the emotions and sudden feelings that came up whenever he faced her, even today's vague displeasure towards that man. He knew what it was all about.
But... was it really her?
Then thinking of her natural familiarity and closeness with that man, the emotions in his eyes cooled again: "What's the matter?"
"I ...... I was going to ask if you wanted a late-night snack?"
Looking at her bright, expectant eyes, Huo Shiqian's original rejection got stuck. So by the time his mouth opened, the word that left his mouth was yes.
Jiang Yu's eyes lit up again, "Then wait for me, it'll be ready soon!"
……
Ten minutes later, she brought over a bowl of noodles. Huo Shiqian quickly opened the door and stepped back to let her in.
She handed him the chopsticks, " Do you want to try?"
