C13 A Look of Disgust Flashed Across His Face

"You suspect her? What kind of good acting is needed to perform the tragic effects of that night? " Ji Shaowen's voice came from the phone, "Is it because you are too paranoid? With your condition, it makes sense to plant this kind of infatuation fruit outside."

"Also, didn't you find out about her car accident? She drove into the hospital because you forced her to drink. She didn't take this to talk about anything in front of you, did she? " Ji Shaowen came to a conclusion. "I think she's different from those girls who pounced on you. What else is there to test?"

Xi Yechen flipped through the documents in his hands. They were all sent to him by his assistant last night. There was still nothing worth pondering about.

Ji Shaowen was still nagging on the other end. He interrupted him mercilessly. "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Do you think I invited you to give my acceptance speech? Help me keep this Nick company. I'm hanging up."

"Hey, hey!" Ji Shaowen spat on his phone. "If you don't want to socialize, just say it. Let me take the bag." He turned around and saw a foreigner walking towards him. He instantly switched on business mode. He extended his hand and welcomed him warmly. "Nick!"

Lin Yan changed her clothes and went downstairs. When she walked out of the elevator, she saw Xi Yechen. He was very conspicuous and could not be ignored.

The front passenger's door had already been opened for her. Xi Yechen raised his chin and said to her, "Get in the car." Then he bent down and entered the driver's seat. He casually stuffed the documents to the side.

Lin Yan pinched the space between her eyebrows and hesitated for a while, but still sat in the car.

"Where... where are we going?"

Xi Yechen said, "I'll take you out to relax. You'll know when we get there."

Relax? Lin Yan turned her head and looked at him. The suspicion in her heart became heavier. Xi Yechen's cold words and attitude towards her were the norm. Although she had looked forward to relaxing, she also knew that it was impossible. At least for now, it was impossible.

Would Xi Yechen change his attitude towards her because of that night's short interaction?

Impossible.

Lin Yan gently said." She leaned her head against the window and stared at the rapidly retreating scenery outside, lost in thought.

At one of the red lights, Xi Yechen suddenly leaned over and gave Lin Yan a scare. She pulled back and said, "What are you doing?"

Xi Yechen smiled faintly and looked at her indifferently. "Put on your seatbelt."

Lin Yan heard a sound of "Oh," and then she moved closer to him, giving him space to move his hands. She pulled down the seatbelt and fastened it on the side of her legs.

"With a light click, Lin Yan woke up from her daze. She pushed out the familiar memories from her mind and whispered, "Thank you.

Xi Yechen looked at her and fell into deep thought.

The two of them got out of the car in the downtown area and slowly walked with the crowd. They looked like the most ordinary couple, but they were one in front and one behind. There was a narrow space between them.

Lin Yan followed behind him. Her mind was in a mess. Xi Yechen's actions today had completely messed up her.

The man finally stopped walking. Lin Yan looked up and saw that it was a playground.

"Your grandfather said you like this place very much." Xi Yechen looked at him.

The sunlight shone down from his back, but he still looked cold. Lin Yan secretly dug her fingers and said, "That was in the past."

Xi Yechen noticed her small movements and stretched out his hand towards her. Lin Yan vigilantly moved backwards, making that hand with clear joints stop awkwardly in the air.

Xi Yechen did not mind. He walked over and pulled her hand in. "I heard that there is an ice cream shop here. It is not bad."

He bought two and gave one to Lin Yan. He opened his own one and took a bite. Then he stretched it in front of Lin Yan and said, "The fiercest mango taste. Try it."

He did not know whether it was intentional or not, but the gap after the bite was facing Lin Yan.

Lin Yan stared at him for a few seconds and raised her head to look at him. "I don't like dessert."

Xi Yechen did not give in. "Just a bite." He paused and said lightly, "Or do you dislike me?"

Lin Yan looked at the gap and her fingers tightened. She took a step back with a face of resistance. "I don't like it, but I don't like it."

Xi Yechen's eyes darkened and he said with a faint smile, "Then I will change my method."

He reached out and grabbed Lin Yan's wrist, pulled her, and kissed her face.

Lin Yan immediately widened her eyes but did not struggle.

The phone rang at a bad time. Xi Yechen let go of his hand and pressed his thumb on her moist lips. He then walked to the side and lowered his head to look at the phone.

It was his assistant who asked him for instructions on a certain project. He briefly said a few words and his gaze returned to Lin Yan. He was surprised to find that she was raising her arm to wipe her mouth. A flash of disgust appeared on her face, but he still caught it.
