She was still as he remembered her, gentle and charming when she smiled.

But...

Maybe he felt that something was amiss, Jian Ning immediately raised his head and looked at Shang Jin.

She couldn't help but tremble. She clenched the fork in her hand tightly and whispered, "Let's go back now. I'm a bit tired."

Actually, she was really tired. She didn't want to see Shang Jin now and was even more afraid of what kind of conflict they would have again.

Song Xi subconsciously nodded, "Alright, we'll leave now." After saying that, she called the waiter to pay the bill and the two of them quickly left.

Upstairs, Shang Jin could only watch as the two left. Their legs were already fixed, making it impossible for him to leave.

When Hu Cheng walked out from inside, he naturally saw the two back figures in a hurry. He only felt that the backs figure looked somewhat familiar, but after seeing Shang Jin's expression, he became even more curious about the two.

"What, the CEO has taken a fancy to someone else?" He leaned against the railing, curiously watching him.

"Nope." Shang Jin remained cold.

However, Hu Cheng could still feel that those two girls definitely had something to do with him.

"If you like her, you have to say it. Otherwise, how would others be able to feel it? It won't be long before she might be chased away." he joked, but it was true.

After the two of them had completely disappeared from his sight, Shang Jin then looked at the smiling man again, "I hope that Mr Hu has not seen today's incident."

His heart was in pain, as though Jian Ning was supposed to belong to him in the first place. But now, someone else had snatched her away.

"I heard that there's already a Heavenly Immortal in Chief Shang's house. Judging from that woman's back, she's not bad either. How about you give her to me?" He continued to speak fearlessly.

In any case, in front of Shang Jin, he no longer had his initial nervousness, but rather liked this young man in front of him.

Thinking of the Liu Yiwei who was becoming more and more presumptuous, the cold energy around Shang Jin's body became increasingly cold, and Hu Cheng tactfully shut his mouth.

After Jian Ning and Yue Shuang came out, they went straight home. The current Jian Ning needed to calm down a little.

After Jian Ning returned home, she quickly closed the door. She touched her chest that was beating intensely, her mind was in a mess.

Her mind was filled with the scene of seeing Shang Jin today. Her heart was telling her that she really missed Shang Jin.

"Why aren't you letting me go?" It wasn't easy for her to forget about it, but that person suddenly appeared again.

The man in his room was squatting on the floor, his eyes lifeless.

"Knock —"

After an unknown period of time, a series of knocks came from outside the door. Only then did Jian Ning slowly sit up and wipe away the tears on her face.

Seeing that it was Zhang Xianzhe, she opened the door and asked, "Why are you here?"

Hearing her hoarse voice, Zhang Xianzhe felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he still continued to smile.

"I'll be your dustbin." He waved the item in his hand and walked in sideways.

"Go wash your face first, I'll go cook for you." He pushed Jian Ning into the bathroom and carefully did not wipe the tear stains from the corner of her eyes.

He did not look at Jian Ning anymore and directly went to the kitchen to familiarly prepare dinner.

When they had first arrived, Song Xi had already explained it all to him, and naturally knew that Jian Ning had not eaten much that night.

Jian Ning looked at her sorry state in the mirror as she covered her face with her hands and started crying silently.

After Zhang Xianzhe finished preparing dinner, she walked out of the bathroom with a normal expression and sat down without a word.

After a few bites, he had lost his appetite.

"No need to force yourself. If you're not happy, how about we go drink?"

He extended his hand to stop Jian Ning who was about to continue drinking and took out the bag of alcohol.

Seeing the wine, Jian Ning was suspicious for a moment before carefully receiving it. She smiled and said: "I didn't expect your heart to be so thin."

"If it isn't thin, how can I make you laugh?"

After he cleaned up the kitchen, Jian Ning was already sitting on the sofa and drinking. Hearing the footsteps, she finally raised her head.

"Come on, let's get drunk tonight."

She hadn't noticed it herself, but now that she was so red, it made people want to take a bite out of her. She was extremely adorable.

Zhang Xianzhe's expression darkened, he did not do anything excessive, but quietly sat beside her and watched her drink.

Gradually, Jian Ning's eyes became blurry, and she smiled idiotically while holding the bottle of wine.

"I saw that man again today. Why did he appear again when I was about to forget about him?"

She suddenly pulled on Zhang Xianzhe's hand, and a hot tear fell onto his hand, making his heart boil.

"A man like that doesn't deserve you to be so sad for him." He put his arms around her and comforted her softly.

It was unknown whether it was because his embrace was too comfortable or because she did not want to move, but Jian Ning was unable to move at all.

Jian Ning's sobs grew louder and louder. In the end, she simply hugged Zhang Xianzhe tightly and lay on his shoulder in pain.

"But my heart hurts. I hate him. I don't want to see him anymore."

Her long eyelashes swept across the exposed skin on Zhang Xianzhe's shoulder. This feeling was very strange, but Zhang Xianzhe had never thought of pushing her away.

On the contrary, he hugged her even closer, his lips brushing past her ears as he lowered his voice. "That kind of man isn't worth your nostalgia."

With this consolation, Jian Ning finally felt a lot better.

Drunk, he also fell asleep quietly.

After bringing her into the room, only then did Zhang Xianzhe carefully size her up. From the tears on her face, it could be seen that she was really sad right now.

"Jian Ning, how can I walk into your heart? Let me share your worries." He bent her head and kissed her forehead, not hiding her feelings.

And it was only now that he could unreservedly reveal himself, without reservation, to prove to the sleeping Jian Ning that he truly loved her very much.

He watched for a long time, and only when he saw that she didn't have any other reactions and really just fell asleep did he feel at ease to leave.
