Chapter 121 Let Me Teach You Qin Zhao
Her eyelashes trembled, and she looked up, only to be met by a pair of dark eyes.

He stood under the moon, filling her vision.

Qin Zhao softly called out, "Brother Yanci."

She crossed her arms, rested her chin on her arms, and curled up into a ball, her already thin body appearing even more frail in the cold moonlight.

She looked up at him with wet eyes and called his name.

Shen Yanci felt his heart tremble, and an unknown current surged through his body, making him feel numb all over.

There's a voice in my head.

It seems like his life is truly over.

Qin Zhao lowered his eyelids and said softly, "You're blocking my view of the moon."

Shen Yanci looked up. The moon was cold and white tonight, appearing excessively lonely and desolate.

He said, "Why are you here looking at the moon in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"

As Shen Yanci spoke, he walked around to her side and sat down.

Qin Zhao remained lying down, without moving.

Shen Yanci turned his head to look at her: "I'm blocking your view of the moon, how should I make it up to you?"

He thought for a moment, then said languidly, "How about I let you hug the moon?"

Qin Zhao chuckled: "How could you possibly hug the moon?"

Her smile was faint, but it was much more lively than her previous dejected appearance.

"How is it impossible?"

Qin Zhao tilted his head and looked at him.

Shen Yanci looked at her, his deep, magnetic voice alluring in the night: "Didn't you say I'm like the moon? How about I let you hug me?"

He sat not far from Qin Zhao, blocking the night wind, and his shadow fell on her like a soft veil.

Qin Zhao didn't move. After a while, she turned her head and continued to look up at the sky: "Why aren't you asleep yet?"

Shen Yanci lowered his eyelids slightly: "Because I heard that someone went out by themselves in the middle of the night, I was a little worried. I sent her messages and called her, but she hasn't replied yet."

Is she already asleep?

“No.” Shen Yanci looked at her. “She’s looking at the moon.”

Qin Zhao's fingers curled up, and finally she faced him completely.

She took out her phone and saw the unread messages and missed calls.

S: "You went out?"

"Chef Fei made some small cakes, and they tasted pretty good. I've put them in your restaurant."

"Remember to eat early, it won't taste good if you eat it late."

“Lin Shi has already eaten three pieces. If you don’t come back soon, he will finish them.”

"When will you be back? I'm free today, so I'll help you with your IELTS exam."

"You haven't gone home yet?"

"?"

"Your phone's dead?"

"Where's your watch? Is it broken too?"

"Qin Zhao, send a message back."

He would send a message almost every ten or twenty minutes.

Interspersed among these were a few unanswered calls.

The latest one was posted at 12:9.

"I'll give you half an hour, or I'm calling the police."

"Your mother will find out you didn't come home last night."

There was also a text message confirming that 10000 yuan had been credited to my phone account.

She lowered her eyelashes, feeling a mix of emotions she couldn't quite describe, a bittersweet feeling.

She clutched her phone: "Did you tell my mom?"

Shen Yanci's temper flared up again, and he said with a half-smile, "Do you only have eyes for your mother?"

His face was tense: "No."

Qin Zhao chuckled: "Then why are you threatening me?"

Shen Yanci pursed his lips and stared straight at her: "Is that all you saw?"

Qin Zhao shifted her gaze: "Thank you for your concern."

“…” she explained, “My phone was on silent, so I didn’t see it. My watch… is out of battery.”

She had always used her watch to receive notifications.

I'm sorry for making you worry.

She smiled easily: "Brother Yanci, you don't need to worry about me so much in the future. What could possibly happen to me? I can protect myself."

After meeting her, his emotions and reason were constantly at odds, with emotions always winning.

It's not that he wasn't clear-headed; he was consciously being pulled along by her emotions and consciously falling into a state of rationality.

Lin Shi said that she was a man who was about to turn eighteen, so what was there to worry about? She was probably just going out for a walk after dinner or meeting up with friends.

You're at my house in the middle of the night, aren't you?
He had a point, but he just couldn't control his heart.

If it were Lin Shi or Chen Yu, he certainly wouldn't be worried.

But she is Qin Zhao.

From the moment his feelings changed, he would experience the feeling of being anxious and insecure from time to time.

He lowered his eyelids slightly: "Was my worry unnecessary?"

The wound on his face hadn't fully healed, and his long eyelashes cast a small shadow under his eyes.

Qin Zhao: "That's not what I meant."

"I just didn't want you to worry."

"Then teach me what to do so that I won't worry about you."

His gaze was direct and intense, and Qin Zhao felt as if he had been burned by it.

Shen Yanci's Chinese language skills are really bad.

His eyes are also easy to misunderstand.

She looked away: "Well, it's alright if you're not worried."

Shen Yanci: "I'll teach you, Qin Zhao."

Qin Zhao looked at him.

"Inform the other party about any sudden or unusual schedules that are different from your usual schedule. Make sure your electronic devices are charged before you leave home so that you can stay in touch with the other party and avoid losing contact."

"Don't do dangerous things, and don't let yourself get upset. Contact the other party immediately if something happens. This applies anytime, anywhere, and always."

He spoke slowly and deliberately, uttering each word with great care.

Qin Zhao lowered his head.

Shen Yanci: "Can't you do it?"

Qin Zhao pursed her lips, fiddling with her phone: "Is this the agreement you made with Lin Shi?"

"..."

Come to think of it, it seems like Shen Yanci knew every time Lin Shi went to the auditions secretly. He's the kind of person who doesn't keep any secrets; he just spills everything without anyone asking.

No wonder they are best friends.

Qin Zhao was lightly flicked on the forehead. She covered her head and looked at Shen Yanci.

He said, "I'm talking about the two of us now, Qin Zhao and Shen Yanci. Don't try to change the subject with him."

"Are you unwilling, or do you need time to become willing?"

Qin Zhao clenched her fingers; it wasn't a matter of willingness, but rather a question of whether she could actually do it.

What Shen Yanci said sounded like a promise, but Qin Zhao never dared to make promises to anyone easily, as making a promise was like voluntarily giving away a handle.

She did indeed lose; Lin Shi was truly honest and could completely crush her in this area.

No wonder Shen Yanci said he and Lin Shi were friends during the last tutoring session, which completely contradicted her statement that she wanted him to acknowledge them as friends as well.

Now he's given her a chance, but she can't seize it.

She said, "Can I try my best?"

Shen Yanci stared at her for a few seconds: "Give me your phone."

Qin Zhao placed the phone in his palm.

The screen was locked, and Shen Yanci glanced at her.

She volunteered the password: "220824".

She seemed very candid at that moment, without any guard up.

Shen Yanci tapped the screen a few times, and the phone was successfully unlocked.

The light shone on his face, making his features even more distinct, and he looked at the harmless-looking person.
