SCHS - Chapter 60
Chapter 60
Qin Zhen stood at the door, looking at her like an adult watching a child, asking who taught her this.
Wen Shixue said with an innocent face, "Hanhan jie gave me the inspiration."
She said it so smoothly and naturally, very politely.
Qin Zhen was instantly speechless: "..."
What a "Hanhan jie". She hadn't even met her yet but was already calling her that. They had been together for so long, why hadn't she ever heard Wen Shixue call her "Zhenzhen jie"?
Qin Zhen rubbed her forehead in distress. She wondered if it was because she had been with Wen Shixue for too long that she was now unconsciously focusing on the wrong things. What Zhenzhen jie, what nonsense, was this the time to be concerned about that?!
Then, seeing Wen Shixue hand over a new small card with a bright smile, she was even more speechless—the Little Demon King had learned bad things from that Yu Hanhan!
She immediately picked up her phone to deal with the source of the problem, Yu Hanhan, to prevent a second accident where the Little Demon King would learn more messy tricks. She already had quite a few cheeky moves; if she learned new ones, wouldn't she be invincible?
Vice President Qin, whose heart was breaking: Sorry, Hanhan, the child's education is more important.
After hanging up the phone, Qin Zhen squatted down and confiscated Wen Shixue's tools of the trade on the spot. Her gaze inadvertently swept over the phone placed beside her. The bright screen clearly showed enlarged images of those hotel small cards, each one printed with women who were curvy, wearing revealing clothes, and in sexy poses. Some were labeled "sexy and hot," others "charming and alluring," truly everything imaginable.
They were clearly used for reference, but Wen Shixue's drawing skills were overly simplified, reaching a state of desirelessness that made people even more pure and ascetic upon seeing them—the phone was also confiscated, and all the messy pictures were deleted!
Qin Zhen stood up and pulled Wen Shixue up from the floor as well, saying, "Don't learn these messy things."
Wen Shixue's smile was pure and exceptionally righteous: "Solving physiological needs is understandable, how is that messy?" She then leaned close to Qin Zhen's ear and whispered, "I'm legal, want to give it a try?"
The result was that Qin Zhen wrapped her up tightly, person and blanket included, and carried her horizontally back to the bed in the master bedroom.
Qin Zhen placed her hand on Wen Shixue's forehead: "Sleep well. Don't think about anything else when you're outside."
Wen Shixue had an unusual number of thoughts about her today, both pure and impure, but as strict as Qin Zhen was, if she said it wasn't allowed outside, it wasn't allowed.
Wen Shixue struggled left and right in the blanket: "Why can't I think about it? I'm just doing my duty!"
Qin Zhen quietly held the opening of the blanket, letting her fuss inside: "What duty?"
Wen Shixue stopped and answered seriously: "Wanting to see my girlfriend's body and help my girlfriend solve her physiological needs."
Then she started to act spoiled in a sweet voice, saying "I want to" repeatedly, incredibly soft.
Qin Zhen was caught off guard by this direct hit, and her ear tips immediately turned red. She didn't know what to do with this direct Little Demon King. After much thought, she finally leaned down and kissed her into submission, then gently coaxed, "Shixue, be good, sleep well. We'll talk about these things when we get back."
Wen Shixue's eyes sparkled: "Definitely when we get back?"
Qin Zhen chuckled softly, not answering directly, but gently rubbing her head with eyes full of tenderness and placing a kiss on her forehead: "Good night." She added, "I won't be sleeping with you these next few days. Be good and sleep by yourself."
Wen Shixue's gaze followed her closely: "Then definitely when we get back."
She absolutely had to see Qin Zhen's body!
If that could really make her behave herself for the next few days... Qin Zhen smiled helplessly: "Okay, definitely when we get back."
Wen Shixue immediately showed a triumphant smile.
Before leaving, Qin Zhen also took the small cards with her, leaving no tools of the trade behind. After returning to her room, she originally intended to throw the cards directly into the trash, but at the moment she reached for the bin, she felt a strange reluctance.
Although the cards weren't elaborate, every stroke was Wen Shixue's effort. Maybe they weren't very proper, but they were cute enough to make her think of the child wrapped in a blanket sitting by the door, drawing with her head down, and her whole heart softened.
After a moment of hesitation, she didn't throw them away. She blacked out the phone numbers and put them away.
...
The next day, Jin Yue indeed asked Wen Shixue why she wanted to change people. It wasn't that she was dissatisfied with Wen Shixue having an opinion about her arrangements, but simply that she wanted to know her reason.
Liu Zhou and Jiang Rui stood beside Jin Yue. One wanted to know why he was suddenly favored, and the other wanted to know why she was suddenly opposed. Their purposes were different, but their curiosity was exactly the same.
Wen Shixue naturally couldn't directly state the reason, saying she didn't like her love rival. She tossed her long hair and said calmly, "Mr. Liu's tea is good. I like it very much."
Liu Zhou: "...?"
Who was the young lady who refused to drink tea yesterday and craved iced cola?
Liu Zhou was about to honestly say that Jiang Rui made better tea than him, but then he was swept by Qin Zhen's calm, emotionless eyes and saw her silently shake her head slightly. He wisely swallowed his words, absolutely not exposing Wen Shixue.
Jiang Rui was furious. What good tea? She simply didn't like her! She pursed her lips tightly, secretly clenching her trench coat. The next second, she met Qin Zhen's gaze, which was cast over unintentionally. This made her freeze for a moment, her eyes widening slightly, overflowing with joy. However, those eyes still held no emotion, not even a nod, and she calmly looked away, no different from seeing a stranger on the street.
She was stunned by this coldness and unconsciously began to doubt whether there was any possibility of them getting back together. But she quickly cheered up. Whether there was or not, she had to try to find out.
After lunch, Wen Shixue was pulled by Jiang Manwei, who happened to be free, for a chat. Jiang Manwei mentioned a natural heart-shaped lake nearby with a beautiful love story, which had become a sacred spot for couples to visit and make wishes. The scenery was also nice, and she suggested Wen Shixue could go for a walk if she was interested.
Jiang Manwei patted Wen Shixue's hand: "Although you're here to inspect the work, since you have so much free time, why not relax and go for a walk?"
Wen Shixue rested her chin on her hand: "I won't be staying long. I'll be back soon."
Jiang Manwei looked at her in surprise: "Our President Wen is really dedicated, thinking about the company all the time?"
Hearing this, Wen Shixue showed a meaningful smile.
Company?
No, this time she wasn't thinking about the company, but about her beautiful girlfriend—she was about to open the door to a new world. Thinking about it, she was a little excited!
Jiang Manwei looked at her smiling face and couldn't help but lean back: "Shixue, your smile is a bit perverted..."
Jiang Manwei: Why can your Chenfeng boss smile so pervertedly when thinking about the company???
Speaking of her girlfriend, Wen Shixue looked around but couldn't find Qin Zhen.
She said she was going to buy her hot coffee, why hadn't she returned yet? Could she have been intercepted by some seductive vixen or white lotus?
Thinking of this, Wen Shixue calmly stood up: "I'm going to find my Vice President."
Jiang Manwei laughed: "Vice President Qin is a grown woman, are you still afraid she'll get lost?"
Wen Shixue looked down at her, smiled slightly, and replied: "Yes, I'm afraid."
If she got lost, there would be no one to be her girlfriend.
...
After buying coffee for Wen Shixue, Qin Zhen ran into Jiang Rui as soon as she left the store. Jiang Rui moved whenever she moved, as if determined to block her way. So Qin Zhen spoke in a flat tone: "Please move aside, Miss Jiang. My President Wen is waiting for her coffee."
Jiang Rui had finally caught a chance to be alone with her, so how could she easily let it go? She immediately put on her usual sweet and amiable smile: "The road here is a bit complicated. Shall I take Vice President Qin back?"
"No trouble, I know the way." Qin Zhen lowered her eyes to look at her. Those eyes were beautiful, but they held no emotion, so calm that they gave people an inexplicable sense of dread. "Move aside."
Jiang Rui flinched at her gaze and instinctively dodged to the side.
Qin Zhen withdrew her gaze and walked forward without changing her expression. The hem of her crisp white trench coat fluttered in the slightly blowing cold wind, and her long, flowing hair was also blown open, revealing a pair of exquisite crescent-shaped earrings. Her demeanor was graceful and outstanding, generous and moving.
Jiang Rui stood behind her and looked at her with deep eyes, then followed.
"I'm sorry," Jiang Rui said, catching up to her.
Qin Zhen responded calmly: "What is Miss Jiang talking about?"
Jiang Rui's face showed guilt: "I'm sorry, Qin Zhen. I shouldn't have treated you like that back then..."
Qin Zhen was silent for a moment, as if thinking, and then slowly replied: "I'm sorry, I don't remember what Miss Jiang is referring to." She said it so genuinely that no one could detect a hint of a lie.
Jiang Rui looked at her in astonishment. More surprising than the expected questioning and anger was the forgetting.
She had thought Qin Zhen still remembered, thought she would be a lingering thought in her heart, and as long as there was a thought, they would have infinite possibilities. But she said she didn't remember?! This made all her calculations seem to have hit a piece of wood, completely meaningless.
Qin Zhen admitted that what Jiang Rui did back then was indeed extremely excessive, but she didn't think she should waste time dwelling on it with resentment, because Yu Hanhan and the others had already gotten revenge for her, and also because she wasn't worth it—she was hateful and wicked, but at the same time, she wasn't worthy of any of her emotions.
Moreover, Jiang Rui clearly hoped for a response from her now, whether angry or happy, but she didn't need to fulfill a stranger's hope. She wasn't a Buddha here to save all beings. Besides, for Wen Shixue, for Yu Hanhan and the others, she had to treat Jiang Rui calmly.
Jiang Rui quickly recovered from her disbelief and comforted herself inwardly: Qin Zhen must be lying, she's lying...
She followed Qin Zhen without stopping, putting on a smile again and actively looking for topics: "Have you been well these past few years?"
Qin Zhen ignored her.
She asked again: "Is being a Vice President very hard?"
Qin Zhen still didn't respond.
She wasn't discouraged and decided to continue talking to herself: "Is it not easy working under President Wen? But she's very good-looking, it must be quite pleasant to work with her?"
"Don't have any ideas about her," Qin Zhen finally spoke.
Jiang Rui paused, then smiled: "You're quite protective of this boss. What if... I have ideas about you?"
Qin Zhen still had no expression or reaction, as if she hadn't heard anything. Jiang Rui suddenly didn't want to endure it anymore. She grabbed her arm, forcing her to face her, and looked into her eyes with earnestness: "Qin Zhen, I really know I was wrong, and I really want to start over with you. Can you please give me a reaction, even just a little?!"
Qin Zhen's attention was still on Wen Shixue's coffee, and she slowly pulled her arm back: "Miss Jiang, please mind your behavior."
Jiang Rui was incredulous: "Do you really have no feelings for me at all anymore? Impossible, I don't believe it!"
The next second, Qin Zhen saw Jiang Rui pounce towards her—
Wen Shixue searched for a while before finding Qin Zhen, but she didn't expect her to be with Jiang Rui, and in this posture...
She saw Qin Zhen placing one hand on Jiang Rui's face, extending her arm to push her away, while the other hand firmly held the transparent takeout bag containing the coffee, even holding it a bit further away, as if afraid it would spill, be touched, or be snatched. And Jiang Rui, her entire body screamed the desperate words "rejected."
Wen Shixue rubbed her chin, unable to figure out what they had done to end up in this posture.
She thought to herself: Good heavens, is Jiang Rui so poor that she has to fight Lao Qin for a cup of coffee?
