Kiss Rose

Chapter 10 Like Me
As a result, when he was waiting for Ji Linche to finish his work on the top floor to give him a surprise, he happened to run into Ji Linche and Cen Wan walking out of the elevator together. Cen Wan took Ji Linche's hand and stood on tiptoe to kiss him.

Jiang Qian'an was angry and rushed over to push Cen Wan, but Ji Linche grabbed his wrist with surprisingly great force.

Ji Linche said she was making a fuss, and Jiang Qian was so angry that he threw the thermos bucket on the ground, splashing the soup inside and scalding Cen Wan.

Ji Linche hurriedly checked Cen Wan's injuries, shook off Jiang Qian's hand and walked into the office without paying any attention to her.

But it was clear that it wasn’t just Cen Wan who wore a skirt that day; she was also there.

The red scars from burns on the calves are still faintly visible.

She loved Ji Linche, but in the end she was the one who got hurt.

Her head sank slightly, and a warm palm rubbed the top of her hair.

Zhou Shiyan came over with a medicine box and squatted in front of Jiang Qian'an.

The bright white light from the crystal lamp in the living room fell on him. He looked up, and his eyes, which were usually dull and deep, were rarely seen to be gentle.

"Treat the wound first before feeling sad."

Jiang Qian bit his lip. He had always been stubborn since he was a child. "I won't feel sad for him."

"Well, who was the person who got drunk and hugged me and cried last night?"

Thinking of Jiang Qian's appearance last night, Zhou Shiyan's heart sank again. He dipped a cotton swab in iodine and gently wiped the mud off Jiang Qian's wound.

The little girl was very spoiled and her skin was as delicate as porcelain. It glowed white under the light, but the slightest bump would break her skin and turn it red and purple.

"It definitely wasn't me." Jiang Qian'an denied it flatly, and his mind unconsciously recalled last night's dream.

Even if it's true, it's not her if she doesn't admit it.

"Yeah." This time the ending of "Yeah" was dragged out longer than before, with a hint of doting in the tone, "Jiang Qian'an, you just fell in love with the wrong person, it's not a big deal."

"Then how do I know who is the right person?"

Jiang Qian'an's voice was muffled. She lowered her head in boredom, watching the movements of Zhou Shiyan's hands.

The familiar scene lingered in her mind, but the difference was that Zhou Shiyan was more cautious and rarely even touched her.

The light hit his long eyelashes, casting a shadow under his eyes. Although he was a boy, his eyelashes looked longer than hers.

Jiang Qian'an thought that if it was Zhou Shiyan, he would definitely treat her wound in the same way. Even Xiao Shu, who was so nonchalant, would definitely choose to do the same.

Thinking about it this way, there is really nothing special about Ji Linche.

Zhou Shiyan raised his eyelids and glanced at her, then pretended to be calm and looked away, without stopping his hands, as if he spoke unintentionally.
"Like me."

"Is Brother Shi Yan like this?"

Jiang Qian'an's voice was like an invisible hook, full of laziness and a bit of curiosity.

Jiang Qian'an is still a girl in her twenties after all. The innocence and naivety in her eyes cannot be faked, they are bright and charming for no reason.

Her tone sounded like she was really thinking seriously about what Zhou Shiyan had said before, that he was the right person.

Flirting without knowing it.

Zhou Shiyan didn't expect that he would be caught in the trap he set on purpose. His whole body was tense under Jiang Qian'an's scrutinizing thoughts, and his heart beat louder than the sound of raindrops dripping on the eaves outside the window.

He even breathed carefully, waiting for the girl's next words. Jiang Qian sighed softly.

"Forget it. I have no plans to fall in love again. Managing the company is already troublesome enough."

Not the answer you want to hear.

Zhou Shiyan calmed down and realized that he was a little anxious.

The thoughts that had been suppressed for more than ten years burst out like bamboo shoots after rain after the little girl stood at his door that time, and they were out of control afterwards. Sometimes Zhou Shiyan was afraid that if he was not careful, he would reveal his thoughts to Jiang Qian'an and scare her.

Zhou Shiyan quietly acknowledged Jiang Qian's words as he packed up his medicine box. There was some subtle undertone in his words.
"Well, it's okay to have this idea. You are still young, and time will tell you whether those who stay with you are good or bad, and who is worthy of your lifelong trust."

After Zhou Shiyan packed the medicine box, he stood up and then gave a gentle instruction.
"Pay attention to the wound these days. Don't let it get wet for now. It will be fine once the wound is completely scabbed over. Also, you got caught in the rain today. I'll make some ginger soup for you later. Otherwise, you'll catch a cold easily."

Jiang Qian leaned back on the sofa, looking at Zhou Shiyan's figure, and sighed sincerely,
"Brother Shi Yan, you are so good. Whoever becomes my sister-in-law in the future will be blessed."

She is good at both being a lady in the living room and cooking in the kitchen. The most important thing is that she is rich and capable, gentle and considerate of others' feelings. If Jiang Qian'an really looks for someone according to Zhou Shiyan's standards as he said, he probably won't find her in his lifetime.

"Don't be so joking, go change into dry clothes first."

After being tapped on the forehead, Jiang Qian'an shut up obediently.

In Lingchuan, there is no one else except Zhou Shiyan who can make Jiang Qian'an so obedient.

Zhou Shiyan watched Jiang Qian'an's back as he left, with a slight smile on his lips.

She thinks he is a good person and that those who will be with him in the future will be happy, which is a big step forward.

Inside the Ji Group’s stand-alone office building.

After leaving Jiang Qian'an, Ji Linche came directly to the company.

In the huge top-floor office, Ji Linche sat in the boss chair with an irritable look on his face.

There was a document in front of him, which was the latest information about the Jiang family that he had asked Chen Li to collect on the way.

Ji Linche didn't turn a page as raindrops as big as beans hit the glass window behind him. He almost lost control and grabbed the edge of the chair.

He couldn't tell where this feeling came from, as if all his possessions were suddenly taken away by someone else, and that momentary sense of loss was disorienting.

He knew that Jiang Qian'an loved him deeply, and he had never thought that she would suddenly leave him one day.

Moreover, he has made preparations to marry Jiang Qian'an.

How did it suddenly become like this?
"Why else? Miss Jiang is trying to get your attention." Gu Yu's voice came from the microphone, and he said indifferently, "I'm used to this kind of trick. What Jiang Qian wants is for you to beg her to come back like this, to show how important she is to you.

Women are just cheap. Brother Ji, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you've come back to Lingchuan and asked me about these things again. You've played into my hands."

Gu Yu secretly spat in his heart, secretly cursing Jiang Qi'an for being such a high-level scheming bitch, using such clever tactics to trick Ji Linche into a circle.

No wonder Cen Wan couldn't beat her. No matter how pretty this scheming woman looked, he would still feel disgusted even if she took off all her clothes in front of him. How could she be as kind as Cen Wan? If she didn't still have some value to her, Gu Yu wouldn't even want to mention her.

Ji Linche tapped the table thoughtfully, feeling that what Gu Yu said made sense.

He had seen the humble things Jiang Qian'an had done for him, and he had also seen how respectful she was to her mother.

　It’s finished, don’t worry!
