ffect.... while Cang Ming looked as if he was completely unaware of it all, ...How could he possibly speak of his own embarrassment.Before Ning Shu could even get to his feet, a hand reached out and p...Ning Shu paused for a moment, suddenly remembering the encounter with Yuanzhu's ex-girlfriend earlier today. The other party had wanted to hug her, but she was refused.
Lin Qingqing looked dejected.
It must have been around then that he picked up the scent of perfume. Ning Shu's heart tightened involuntarily, and she opened her mouth to lie subconsciously: "Maybe I accidentally brushed against it in the elevator."
He knew Shen Ji's temper very well; if the other party knew about the original owner's ex-girlfriend, they definitely wouldn't let him have an easy time.
Shen Ji is just such a person.
As expected, the young man looked at him with a dubious gaze. His face was grim, especially when he caught a whiff of that sickening perfume – the kind that only women wore.
Shen Ji wanted to scrub the man clean from head to toe.
He grabbed Ning Shu, his tone turning cold: "Really Brother Ning, don't lie to me."
Those phoenix eyes gazed over with such depth, fixating on the man without relent. The jealousy in her words was like something spreading and overflowing, threatening to suffocate him.
Ning Shu's heart tightened more and more.
He choked slightly, knowing he couldn't lie to Shen Ji. Once he gave away any hint, Shen Ji's suspicions would be magnified tenfold, so he didn't avoid the handsome young man's gaze.
Instead, she looked straight at him and pursed her lips, trying to speak in the most gentle tone possible: "Yes, there were a lot of people in the elevator today. I don't know who bumped into me. Xiao Ji, don't you trust me"
Shen Ji just stared at the person for a while, his fingers relaxing.
Staring at the man, "Brother Ning, how could I not believe you"
He lowered his head: "Ning Ge, why don't you go take a shower I want to..."
As Ning Shu blushed slightly, yet helplessly turned and walked into the bathroom.
Shen Ji walked straight into the living room without any expression on his face.
Then she began to flip through Ning Shu's things.
There is nothing suspicious.
He even lowered his head, sniffing at the item brought back by the other. His eyes were dark and lifeless.
It didn't smell like much else.
Shen Ji opened the other person's phone again.
Men are generally honest and gentle, lacking cunning or malice.
So the password he set, Shen Ji had guessed long ago, it wouldn't be that complicated. He unlocked it almost immediately. He usually didn't bother checking these things because Shen Ji was certain.
Once she followed him, she lost that so-called courage and didn't dare to steal someone else behind his back.
And now, Shen Ji is like a wife who suspects her husband is having an affair because she smells perfume on him, scrutinizing his every contact, messaging history, and even all his software.
He had no expression on his face, but his eyes were deep and inscrutable.
Ningshu's contact information is simple.
Besides my colleagues at the company, there are also some classmates I hadn't been in touch with for a long time. That's about it.
Shen Ji quickly discovered that Ning Shu's note for him was no different from others, all with both name and surname.
Realizing this, Shen Ji's face suddenly turned extremely ugly.
...Xiaoji, Xiaoji, that's what he always calls himself. ...
Yet, he was noted by name, Shen Ji. To the man, he appeared no different from anyone else
Shen Ji's expression became very strange, like being extremely cold, yet also extremely enraged.
A little distorted.
He looked at it for a while, then indifferently put the phone down.
Ning Shu didn't frequently contact anyone, only for work-related communication. And he didn't have many female colleagues to chat with, they were all very ordinary relationships.
This was exactly what Shen Ji had expected.
He had already guessed that Ning Shu probably didn't have the guts. But even so, even if a man accidentally got scented with another woman's perfume, it would be enough to make Shen Ji very displeased.
So when Ning Shu came out, she saw the young man in his room, his face slightly sullen.
He paused, wondering if Shen Ji had noticed something
Shen Ji just stood there, staring at him, and said: "Come here."
Ning Shu walked over and lowered her eyelashes. She couldn't guarantee whether Shen Ji had seen through her lies when she lied, and felt a little uneasy in her heart.
Shen Ji lowered his head and embraced the person.
Then she sniffed the man's scent, besides the smell of soap, there was no other person's odor.
His face softened slightly.
Then he stared at the person and said, "Brother Ning, go lie down on the bed..."
......
Ning Shu also didn't know what had gotten into Shen Ji. He woke up this morning and saw that his complexion wasn't very good. He couldn't help but purse his lips, the soreness all over his body was unbearable.
He took a deep breath.
Shen Ji only turned eighteen, but this kind of thing even made him, an adult who had already entered society, unable to cope....
Every time, Ning Shu felt like she was about to be killed by Shen Ji, not to mention that Shen Ji had learned so many tricks from somewhere.
Ning Shu remained silent. If he continued following Shen Ji, he would sooner or later reach his limit....
...not to mention that since Shen Ji had tasted the sweetness of being with him almost every day....
He tidied up and then went to the company.
Relieved that Shen Ji hadn't doubted her further, Ning Shu let out a sigh of relief.
When Ning Shu arrived at the company, she realized that something had happened.
A colleague muttered, “I don’t know what madness has come over the company. They announced this morning that office romances are now forbidden. I don't have a girlfriend anyway, and I was hoping that the new single female colleague would help me find true love...”
Ning Shu pursed her lips slightly, can't help but think if this matter might be related to Shen Ji...
He didn't believe such a coincidence could happen.
And to be fair, Shen Ji also possesses this ability.
Hearing the people next to him grumble and complain about the rule, Ning Shu didn't know what to say. She felt a little guilty and ashamed.
....
Shen Ji probably has a bit of paranoia and rabies, perhaps because he doesn't allow others the possibility of betraying him.
And all those who betrayed Shen were dealt with and eradicated.
Shen Ji waited for him every day for several days. Then, she would check if he smelled like a woman's perfume and did this for several days in a row. Meanwhile, Lin Qingqing didn't contact him again.
Shen Ji then dismissed his suspicions about him and returned to his usual self.
Only then could Ning Shu draw a breath.
Because Shen Ji has been acting strange these past few days, he always likes to be tough in bed.
He was afraid his colleagues at the company would notice anything, so he always wore clothes that were more expensive and formal than usual.
And Lin Qingqing got back in touch with Ning Shu a week later.
When Ning Shu received her call, she was at the company.
Suddenly seeing a strange number, Ning Shu was at a loss for a moment. But Ning Shu still answered the call, and immediately, Lin Qingqing's voice came from the other end.
"A Shu..."
She stammered, her voice trembling with fear: "...Can you come and keep me company I've met a man recently who keeps following me."
Lin Qingqing's voice was choked with tears: "I'm so scared to be alone, but I don't know who could help me..."
Ning Shu was listening to her voice on the phone, opened her mouth and asked: "Have you called the police"
Lin Qingqing shook her head: "I'm afraid to call the police, I'm afraid he'll retaliate against me...."
She bit her lip. "And there aren't any cameras here, either. It's just a small guesthouse.... not like a hotel."
Upon hearing the address she mentioned, Ning Shu immediately understood why Lin Qingqing had gotten herself into such a predicament.
That place wasn't safe to begin with, and Lin Qingqing, being a young girl and pretty, was bound to attract trouble.
He hesitated for a moment, but then quickly asked: "Stay there and don't move. Close the door, and I'll be right there."
Lin Qingqing immediately nodded and murmured a few "ums," seeming terribly frightened.
She regretted it more and more, why she had left her boyfriend in the first place. Clearly, Ning Shu was the one who truly cared for her and loved her...
.....
When Ning Shu rushed over, Lin Qingqing was locked in her room alone. She didn't open the door until she heard his voice.
At that moment, Lin Qingqing immediately rushed into his arms.
"Ah Shu..."
Ning Shu's scalp went numb. In that instant, he thought of Shen Ji smelling the perfume on him, those eyes that made his skin crawl. He immediately pushed Lin Qingqing away and said, " ...Did you...see what that pervert looked like"
Lin Qingqing shook her head. "He always wears a coat, he must be middle-aged, and kind of short..."
Ning Shu stopped talking. In a place where you can't see people's faces and there is no monitor evidence, it's hard to catch someone. And it's risky. For a moment, she was speechless: "...why don't you stay in a hotel"
Lin Qingqing's face was flushed, and she stammered, "You only gave me two thousand yuan. I still need to eat... I can't afford to stay in a hotel for that long."
Ning Shu suddenly realized that she had nowhere to stay, and two thousand yuan wouldn't last long.
He glanced at Lin Qingqing and had an idea, so he said to her: "Pack your things up, I'll take you somewhere."
....
Lin Qingqing felt a glimmer of hope in her heart. She had originally thought that Ning Shu would take her back to the house they used to live in.
After all, they used to live together and were once in love.
As soon as she thought of this, she felt a twinge of guilt and remorse. To be precise, Ning Shu had been good to her in every way, but she hadn't known how to cherish it.
Ning Shu used her own ID card to book a hotel for half a month.
Let Lin Qingqing move in.
Lin Qingqing took her things and moved into the hotel, wanting to speak but holding back.
Ning Shu said to her, "Stay here first..." He paused for a moment: "I can only help you this much. It's not safe for you to live there alone. Staying in a place like this is fine for now, but in the future, you need to think carefully... You should find time to apologize to your parents..."
"Lin Qingqing looked at him and said, "Ashu...have you gotten a new girlfriend" himself"Ning Shu's eyes widened in slight surprise.His heart skipped a beat, but he had never considered this before. In Ning Shu's eyes, he was using a preconceived notion. In his world, these piano...
