thank you, but it’s fine. I’ll go to the gym in front. It’s just a few steps away.
gu yi looked up and saw the gym not far away.
“the gym? cousin shi yan, are you here to work out or to look for someone?”
“I’m looking for someone.”
“I’m leaving,” he nodded to Gu Yi.
Gu Yi trotted after her. I’ll walk you. It’s only a few steps away, but it’s chaotic here at night. I’m not at ease until I see the person you’re looking for.
shi yan stopped and looked at him.
“jie, i’m your cousin’s friend. it’s fine if we didn’t meet, but since i’ve met him, i really can’t just stand by and do nothing. it’s not far anyway, so i’ll send you to your friend. otherwise, i won’t be able to explain to su mu if something happens to you.”
“i’ve been thinking of changing to another gym recently. it’s a good time to visit this one,” she added, as if she was afraid that shi yan would reject her.
Since he had already said so, she couldn’t reject him anymore.
After all, he had said that he would take a look at the gym.
“then i’ll have to trouble you.”
“younger cousin shi yan is too polite.”
“Speaking of which, I still owe younger cousin Shi Yan An apology. That day at the hot spring resort, my relative’s younger sister made you unhappy. Logically speaking, she deserved whatever happened to her, but her parents were kind to me. she came to haicheng alone, and her parents asked me to help take care of her. i can’t just leave yingluo alone.”
cousin Shi Yan, I’m very sorry. I’ve been helping you deal with the lawyer you hired these few days and have completely cleared Gu Yuanyuan’s name.
when he met shi yan’s gaze, gu yi smiled a little guiltily. ” but don’t worry, i will give you an explanation. in a few days, i will bring gu yuanyuan to you personally to apologize! ”
“No need.”
“president gu, if you have the heart, please keep an eye on her and don’t let her appear in front of me again.”
her words were tough, but her tone was neither fast nor slow, and her tone was not heavy. it sounded more like she was discussing.
But it only sounded like it.
Gu Yi didn’t think so. To him, it was a warning from her.
In just two short sentences, she was strong but not tough. She was really the eldest daughter of the Shi family.
“since it’s shi yan’s younger cousin’s request, i will naturally do as she says. i’ll keep a close eye on gu yuanyuan and won’t let her look for cousin shi yan again. if i can’t keep a close eye on her and give her another chance to cause trouble, i won’t interfere anymore. cousin shi yan can deal with it however she wants.”
from what he said, it seemed that his relationship with gu yuanyuan was also very ordinary.
Shi Yan didn’t say anything more. She glanced at him and continued walking.
three minutes later, he entered the gym.
jiang che was on the second floor, while shi yan took the elevator directly to the second floor.
She asked Gu Yi to leave, but Gu Yi said that he was worried about leaving until he sent her to her friend and insisted on following her. He also called a gym staff to ask about the gym and did not give Shi Yan a chance to refuse.
in the end, he still followed shi yan to the elevator.
the gym took up two floors, and each floor was very wide.
It was obvious that this was a large gym. At this time, there were many people working out in the gym, but Shi Yan still saw Jiang che at a glance.
Even though he was dressed in sports attire like many others here, Jiang che was definitely the most eye-catching one.
Gu Yi saw that after Shi Yan came out of the elevator, the smile on her face was more sincere than before. He followed Shi Yan’s line of sight and instantly understood.
So she was here to find a boyfriend.
From the looks of it, she must have taken a liking to this fifth Lord Jiang.
however, it was also understandable. a person like fifth lord jiang, who was so eye-catching with his appearance alone, was probably someone that no young girl would dislike.
jiang che was running on the treadmill. shi yan approached him but did not make a sound to disturb him. she stood a few steps behind him.
She only had Jiang che in her eyes and no longer cared about Gu Yi. Thus, Gu Yi sent the gym staff away and stood beside her without leaving. She didn’t care either.
gu yi didn’t say anything, but his eyes kept darting between shi yan and jiang che. no one knew what he was thinking.
about ten minutes later, the treadmill stopped. jiang che got off and was about to drink some water when he saw shi yan standing there.
her eyes instantly lit up with a smile. she raised her head and drank more than half of the bottle of water. then, she walked straight to shi yan and lowered her head to kiss her on the cheek.”how long have you been here? Why didn’t you wake me up?”
“i didn’t want to disturb you since you were running.”
As she spoke, Shi Yan took out a handkerchief from her bag to wipe his sweat.
jiang che bent down to stop her.
“Miss Shi, how can you use the word ‘disturb’ between us?”
“alright, i used the wrong words.” She helped him wipe his sweat and folded the handkerchief.
Jiang Che’s gaze fell on the handkerchief, and the corners of his eyes raised slightly.”the embroidery on your handkerchief looks like aunt shen’s handiwork.”
“i bought it from aunty shen’s shop. i bought it the day we met for the second time.” at that time, she had only taken a fancy to this handkerchief because she had seen the bamboo embroidered on it and thought of him.
He had a bamboo-like character.
“I bought it that day.”
jiang che actually knew.
that day in shen miao’s shop, she had picked out such a handkerchief and it was hard for him not to notice.
Shi Yan put the folded handkerchief back into her bag and asked him with a faint smile,”Do you still want to work out in the gym or go back?”
Jiang che raised his hand to look at the watch on his wrist. It was the couple watch that Shi Yan had given him.
“i usually train for an hour or two, but i’ve only been here for less than forty minutes. if you’re not in a hurry to go back, why don’t you stay here with me for a while? or you can practice with me for a while.”
miss Shi, you’ve been busy with your studies recently and haven’t been exercising much. You can’t go on like this.
“No, I exercise early in the morning too.”
although she only practiced boxing and fish for three days, she used to be like this too. in the past, the most she did was run. recently, she didn’t run, but she would take a walk after meals.
Moreover, when she was with Jiang che, she didn’t have that much energy to train. Jiang che often tormented her until she didn’t even have the energy to get out of bed.
Physical fitness?
She wasn’t worried at all. Her body was in good condition.
Seeing that she was still so self-righteous, Jiang che laughed and pinched her face.
“Then you’re going to sit here and accompany me?”
“alright,” he said.
The two of them were so intimate that they seemed to have completely forgotten that there was someone else beside them. Gu Yi coughed.
only then did jiang che release his hand from shi yan’s cheek and look at him. shi yan also looked at him. Although it was not obvious, Gu Yi could see what Shi Yan wanted to express in her eyes.
she was wondering why he was still here.
gu yi,”yingluo.”
“Fifth Lord Jiang,” he greeted Jiang che.
“since cousin shi yan has met her friend, i’ll take my leave first.”
After he finished speaking, he nodded at Jiang che and turned to leave. he didn’t meet jiang che’s gaze the entire time. it wasn’t contempt, but more like he didn’t dare to look him in the eye.
however, neither shi yan nor jiang che felt that there was anything wrong with this.
There were only a few people in the world who dared to meet fifth Lord Jiang’s gaze.
“why would he be with you?”
