Chapter 364: Can Never Go Back
During the peak dinner hour, the Western restaurant was packed, yet it exuded a quiet and peaceful atmosphere everywhere.
Teased in such a way, Shen Yan reached out and pinched Huniu, who was asking for it; Wu Yue'er only felt that Shen Yan's hand seemed to possess a magical power that always made one's legs go weak.
In no time at all, those peach-blossom eyes became brimming with moisture, filled with shyness and allure.
"Ah!"
Wu Yue'er couldn't help but let out a soft cry, coquettishly saying, "Hubby, don't pinch me like that, I won't be able to take it."
Hearing this, a look of playfulness appeared on Shen Yan's face; he deliberately increased the pressure of his hand, making Wu Yue'er's delicate body even softer and weaker.
Accompanied by a soft moan, Wu Yue'er leaned her entire body against Shen Yan's shoulder.
Her breathing gradually became disordered.
Chen Shanni's eyes darted away, somewhat unable to look directly at this scene that would put others to shame.
Suddenly, she discovered that at some point, a young girl who looked like a fox had appeared beside the dining table.
The girl's expression was currently uncertain, her fox-like eyes gloomy as water, as if it were the calm before a storm; furthermore, she also looked at Chen Shanni with bewilderment.
She did not understand why the other party would turn a blind eye to this.
Wasn't she Shen Yan's girlfriend?
With a boyfriend flirting with other women right in front of her, shouldn't she be burning with rage?
"Ahem!"
Chen Shanni coughed lightly twice: "Shen Yan, someone is here."
Shen Yan looked up in confusion, then immediately gave a start; standing there looking pretty was none other than Hao Anqi, and not far behind her stood Wen Qingqing.
Judging by their expressions, they seemed to be hesitating whether to come over.
He awkwardly retracted his hand and laughed dryly: "An Qi, you came here to eat too."
Noticing Hao Anqi's presence, Wu Yue'er couldn't help but feel a bit guilty, but she immediately regained her composed posture; Hao Anqi had already broken up with Shen Yan.
She was no longer that mistress who couldn't see the light of day, so what was there to be afraid of!
Hao Anqi glared at him, her voice devoid of any emotion: "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
Shen Yan felt the environment here was not appropriate, thinking he would explain to Hao Anqi later.
However, Hao Anqi had no intention of buying it; her eyes welled with tears as she looked at Shen Yan stubbornly: "I won't, you explain it clearly right now."
Chen Shanni kicked Shen Yan under the table and advised: "Shen Yan, you should go out with An Qi first, we will wait for you to come back here."
Seeing Hao Anqi pouting with a stubborn look in her eyes, Shen Yan didn't say anything more.
He stood up and pulled her toward the outside.
After the two left, Wu Yue'er stuck out her tongue cutely and said with a giggle: "Shanni, do you think An Qi might get so angry that she stabs Shen Yan?"
"Isn't this all the trouble you caused!"
Chen Shanni rolled her eyes at her.
At a time like this, this girl was still grinning.
Sometimes fate is indeed mysterious; some people might never meet in their entire lives even if they are in the same city, yet Hao Anqi could always run into Shen Yan on various occasions.
And it just so happened that she saw that absurd scene.
Chen Shanni was not worried about Shen Yan's safety, nor did she have other concerns; she believed Shen Yan could handle everything, only hoping that the matter would subside as soon as possible.
"Shanni, Shen Yan still can't let go of Hao Anqi in his heart; you say, if Hao Anqi knows the situation, what if she keeps pestering Shen Yan? Is it possible... we are going to have another sister?"
Wu Yue'er said with a bitter face; Chen Shanni's expression stiffened, her voice sounding slightly hesitant: "That shouldn't be, how could she accept such an absurd thing."
"Pfft!" Wu Yue'er curled her lips: "What's impossible about it? Aren't you and I the precedents."
Uh...
Now Chen Shanni was at a loss, silently praying that this situation would never happen.
On the bustling commercial street, the shouts of vendors filled the air everywhere; a crescent moon hung high above, and the twinkling stars shone with a faint light, reflecting off the various neon lights.
Unable to find a suitable place to talk, Shen Yan brought Hao Anqi to the parking lot.
Sitting in the car, facing Hao Anqi's burning gaze, Shen Yan chose to get straight to the point: "I don't know how to explain it to you; a lot of things have happened during this period, and the facts are just as you saw—Wu Yue'er and I are in that kind of relationship."
Although she had guessed this situation long ago, hearing it from Shen Yan's mouth was another matter; her eyes turned red instantly, and she questioned: "Then who exactly is your girlfriend? Didn't you get together with Chen Shanni?"
The corner of Shen Yan's eye twitched slightly, and he said somewhat awkwardly: "How should I put it, actually... both of them are my girlfriends."
"Huh?" Hao Anqi was dumbfounded; she suspected that something was wrong with her ears just now.
To actually hear such an absurd thing.
From the situation just now, it could be judged that both sides were aware of each other and had accepted each other's existence, which made Hao Anqi feel that her brain wasn't enough to process it.
Why would the two women accept such a thing?
What on earth happened to make her devoted "ex-boyfriend" change so much?
Having one in each arm, isn't this blatant scumbag behavior?
Hao Anqi sorted out her thoughts, and only after a long while did she speak: "So you three are together now, and you don't mind each other's existence?"
Shen Yan nodded silently.
"Aren't you going to tell me what happened?" Hao Anqi couldn't care about being sad; she urgently wanted to know the cause and effect.
Shen Yan scratched his brow, thinking he couldn't just stupidly confess that he was cheating.
He simply said: "I can't explain it to you; the reasons inside are too complicated. In short, the situation is like this now; what should have happened, and what shouldn't have happened, have all become reality."
There was another long silence in the car; Hao Anqi just stared blankly at Shen Yan.
As if she didn't recognize the person in front of her.
After a long time, she said firmly: "You must have some hidden reason, won't you tell me?"
No matter what, she didn't believe Shen Yan was the type of person who was fickle and promiscuous.
She only believed in her own most real feelings.
"Those things are no longer important. I am not a good man; there is no need for you to be sad or upset for me anymore. Let it be this way. I wish you... happiness."
After saying this, Shen Yan pushed open the car door and walked out.
Hao Anqi, whose mind was a complete mess, did not know what to say at this moment. After taking a deep look at the interior of the car, she followed Shen Yan out of the vehicle.
Watching that tall, straight figure gradually walking further and further away, Hao Anqi's face was filled with bewilderment.
Not until this moment did she truly feel that the two of them could never return to the kind of relationship they once had.
