C1 (1/2)
In the human world, April was the most beautiful time of the year.
It was also a cloudy day. There were very few customers in the Western Restaurant, so the biggest reason should be that there were new chefs in the restaurant recently. Their cooking skills were not as good as the unknown chef from before.
When Shen Chuxin came in from the outside, her trench coat was already half soaked. As soon as she entered the door, she saw a beautiful receptionist walking towards her. She gave her a perfect smile 45 degrees, ”Excuse me miss, do you have an appointment?”
It was a pleasant voice that could captivate a person's heart.
Even though Shen Chuxin is a woman, she suppressed her gentle voice, saying, ”This is the place that Mr. Chen has reserved.”
”Miss Shen, this way please.” The pretty hostess brought Shen Chuxin up the spiral staircase to the second floor.
After a cursory glance, he realized that this place seemed to have changed quite a bit. It was no longer as prosperous as it was a few years ago, and the guests were all men and women dressed as elites. While she was retracting her thoughts, the hostess in front of her had already stopped at the door of a private room and lightly knocked on it, opening the door for her.
”Sir, Miss Shen is here.” The pretty young miss nodded at Shen Chu's heart, then turned around and left.
Shen Chuxin took off her wet coat and casually put it on her arm, lifting her leg to take two steps forward. When her eyes met with the man sitting inside like a statue, she was stunned for a moment …
His raised left foot was stuck in the air for a full minute.
Her brain was always more responsive than her body. When Shen Chu's mind cleared up, she realised that her wrist was being tightly gripped by someone.
She stared sleepily at the hand that was even more beautiful than a woman's for a few seconds. Then, with a somewhat dry voice, she said, ”Let go.” However, he no longer raised his eyes to look at him. He didn't know if it was his body's instinctive fear or the fear that was carved into the depths of his memories.
The man didn't let her go just like she wanted him to. He was determined … Or rather, the tyranny in his bones would not allow her to do as she pleased.
He swung the door shut with one hand, his whole body movement was strange and discordant, the hand holding Shen Yuxin's wrist was even more forceful than before. Anyone who didn't know would be mistaken for someone who was afraid that she would slip away. But in fact, Shen Chuxin who has been a nurse for many years can see the difference in his body at a glance.
His right leg... He was as stiff as an unconscious machine.
What's wrong with your foot? This question almost popped out of his mouth. When he realized his foolish appearance, Shen Chuxin stood up and turned her head away, unwilling to look at this person any longer.
The man pulled her towards the sofa in a stiff manner. With a cold voice, he said, ”Let's talk.”
The moment he said that, Shen Chuxin sneered, ”Mr. Sheng, it seems like there's nothing between us to talk about?” When she said that, she looked at his face, the face that had attracted so many women, and the face that had stunned all the girls in the school. ”Seven years ago, when you personally destroyed my family, there was nothing left for us to talk about. No,” she paused, her eyes revealing her fiendish joy, ”there are still five lives worth of blood and hatred to talk about.”
Shen Chu didn't know what kind of strength she had to be able to break free of Sheng Rui He's power. When she slammed the door, she heard the person behind her say, ”Seven years have passed, but you still don't understand.”
When he left the Western Restaurant, Shen Chuxin immediately made a call to her uncle. He used almost all the strength in his life to suppress the roiling anger and hatred in her chest. ”Ruan Zongwei, you'd better give me a reasonable explanation!” Why would the target of her blind date be the demon that caused her to become like this!
As the drizzle hit her body, she still felt as if every part of her body was burning with endless flames.
When the voice on the other end of the phone rang, it wasn't her uncle.
”Beginner, what's wrong with seeing Mr. Chen today? Even if he is an orphan, so what? After you married him, you didn't even have to ask about your mother-in-law, and we were so worried about you, how could you not be grateful and come to question your uncle? You can't be so heartless! ”
Shen Chuxin's voice weakened a little in her astonishment, and she asked dryly, ”Mr. … Mr. Chen? Isn't it Sheng Rui He? ” What was going on? Had she entered the wrong room and found the wrong person?
