Chapter 177 Are you very tired lately?

They met at the club where Shen Yan had resigned.

Shen Yanci noticed a slight change in Qin Zhao's expression, tinged with a hint of resentment: "Long time no see, do you still remember me?"

Lin Shi frowned and said with disdain, "Are you alright? I was only a few minutes later than you."

"Let's go change our clothes first."

Qin Zhao followed Lin Shi toward the dressing room, while Shen Yanci lagged behind and took her hand.

Qin Zhao jerked away as if electrocuted, and whispered, "Don't do anything rash."

“Holding hands is inappropriate,” Shen Yanci said, somewhat displeased. “We haven’t held hands for several days.”

"Shen Yanci".

"I understand," Shen Yanci said in a breathy voice. "It should be just the two of us on a date."

"When will we finally be able to do this openly and honestly?"

Lin Shi turned around: "Are your legs so short? Why do you walk so slowly?"

"coming."

Go-karts are very easy to operate; the instructor explained it to Qin Zhao once, and he learned it.

It's a bit stimulating, but bearable, and quite addictive.

As Qin Zhao accelerated and turned, he suddenly crashed into the guardrail.

The coach brought her back on track, and after confirming her safety and condition, Qin Zhao continued playing.

After three laps, Shen Yanci frowned and looked at her: "Did you bump into anything?"

"It's nothing," Qin Zhao said nonchalantly. "If we do it again, I'm sure I can beat you."

Lin Shi: "Great! Let's have a competition, and whoever loses pays."

Once back on the starting line, as soon as the gun fired, Lin Shi accelerated and charged forward.

Qin Zhao followed, thinking that Shen Yanci had caught up, so she pressed the accelerator harder. Then she realized that Shen Yanci didn't seem to be chasing after her.

She pursed her lips and eased off the accelerator.

Lin Shi: "Shen Yanci, you're no good! Even an old man can drive faster than you."

Shen Yanci: "I'm paying the bill and you're still talking so much."

Lin Shi: "Let's buy the ice cream together, it's too hot today."

Shen Yanci looked at Qin Zhao: "Would you like another cup of milk tea?"

Qin Zhao lowered his eyelids: "No need."

Qin Zhao ordered a scoop of ice cream.

Lin Shi ordered three, took a bite, and complained, "Too sweet."

Qin Zhao took a bite; it was icy cold and had no sweetness.

Lin Shi: "You definitely don't think it's sweet."

He said he was going to find a trash can to throw away the trash.

Shen Yanci lowered his voice: "Want to go for a walk tonight? It'll just be the two of us."

The ice cream melted and dripped onto the back of his hand. Qin Zhao lowered his eyelids and wiped it with a tissue.

The watch vibrated twice; a phone call had come in.

Qin Zhao glanced at it for two seconds and then answered the call.

"Hello, is this Mr. Jiang Ye? Ms. Xia Yaoyao has suddenly fainted and is bleeding heavily. She's in the emergency room at the First Hospital. Can you come here right away?"

"Mr. Eno?"

"How is she?"

"The situation must be serious. She listed you as her emergency contact, so..."

"I see."

Qin Zhao: "I'll be right there. You guys have fun."

"I'll take you there." Shen Yanci looked at her. "I'll drive you there; it's not easy to get a taxi here."

Shen Yanci thought she would be worried or anxious, but her emotions seemed to have been detached, and she stared out the window expressionlessly.

The hospital was bustling with people, and the air was thick with the smell of disinfectant.

Qin Zhao felt a little breathless.

After her condition stabilized, Qin Zhao saw Xia Yaoyao, who was lying in bed, her face pale.

Qin Zhao: "How are you?"

When Xia Yaoyao saw her, she just cried and said, "I'm fine."

Qin Zhao felt that she was quite cold-hearted. She should have said something comforting, but she couldn't say anything.

It was as if her soul and body had separated. There was only a sudden wave of exhaustion and an awkward need to make conversation.

She simply fell silent.

Xia Yaoyao spoke, but tears preceded her words: "Jiang Yan sent my photos to someone else."

"what?"

“He sent our intimate videos to their group chat.” Xia Yaoyao was also suppressing her emotions, but she couldn’t help breaking down. “It was one of the boys’ girlfriends who found out and then told me.”

"He clearly said he liked me back then, but he just kept it to himself."

"They're all talking about me."

"It was clearly his idea to do that."

Does love truly exist in this world? Or am I simply unworthy of it?

"Love is all bullshit! Men are all the same. My dad isn't, my brother isn't, Jiang Yan isn't, Jiang Yan's dad isn't... everyone I know isn't! They're disgusting! They're so disgusting!"

Nurse: "Patient, please calm down. You've just calmed down. Do you want to bleed again?"

Xia Yaoyao: "You are Jiang Ye, you are the best boy I have ever met. You are different from all of them."

Qin Zhao: "I'm no good either."

"what?"

Qin Zhao: "Have you obtained any evidence?"

Xia Yaoyao: "There's a WeChat screenshot that the girl sent me."

"If you call the police, you need to record a video of the group chat, including the group name, members, and time, to preserve evidence. Then contact the platform to remove the video and prevent its dissemination."

"..."

Shen Yanci stood outside the door waiting. When he saw her, he instinctively reached out and took her hand: "Are you alright?"

Qin Zhao pursed her lips and withdrew her hand: "I'm fine."

She curled her fingers slightly: "Let's go."

Shen Yanci walked alongside her like that, and only after they got into the car did he try to take her hand again: "Zhaozhao."

Qin Zhao: "Aren't you leaving? I want to go home."

“I overheard their conversation at the nurses’ station.” Shen Yanci blinked slightly. “I understand how you feel right now. I don’t condone that person’s behavior, and I wouldn’t do such a thing. I won’t do anything to hurt you.”

Qin Zhao smiled and said half-jokingly, "Who can say for sure?"

Shen Yanci's pupils were dark as he stared at her without saying a word.

Qin Zhao turned his head away: "Let's go."

The air was frozen.

The car starts.

Shen Yanci's lips were straight: "Even if you don't believe in my character, you should know that I understand the law."

Qin Zhao lowered her eyelashes and turned her head away.

Perhaps due to exhaustion, Qin Zhao fell asleep in the car and woke up when it was already dark.

When she opened her eyes, the folds were very deep, and it took her several attempts to lift her eyelids before her vision cleared.

She closed her eyes again, adjusted them for a moment, and then opened them.

She stirred, saw Shen Yanci with his eyes closed beside her, paused for a few seconds, and then, as if possessed, put her finger under his nose.

After confirming that he was breathing again, he tried to open his car door.

"Are you just going to abandon me like this?"

Qin Zhao's voice was hoarse from just waking up: "You weren't asleep."

Shen Yanci rested his hand on his forehead, his tone languid: "Have you been very tired lately?"

Qin Zhao: "There might be a little today."

She added, "You can just wake me up."

"I'm going home first."

"You slept for five hours and 13 minutes."

Qin Zhao paused for a moment.

Shen Yanci lifted his eyelids slightly: "What do you do after saying goodnight every day?"

Have a good night's sleep everyone!
