Chapter 158: Are You Satisfied?

At this moment, Zhu Yuan wished she could bite Sheng Yu to death!

But the current situation did not allow her to tangle with him here; she indignantly used all her strength to push him away, picked up her bag, and stood up, "Brother Jingxiu, let's go."

"Alright." Zhuang Jingxiu also picked up his coat and followed Zhu Yuan's pace.

Sheng Yu leaned back against the chair with a calm expression. He was so exceptionally handsome that the female shop assistants looked over frequently, and pedestrians outside the floor-to-ceiling windows also noticed the handsome man in the coffee shop, stopping one after another.

Even more handsome than a celebrity!

With such broad shoulders and a tall, straight figure, one could tell his physique was superb without even looking, not to mention the sophisticated fabric of the coat he wore; his brows and eyes were cold, exuding an innate sense of nobility.

But this man radiated a coldness that kept strangers at a distance, and the people outside the window only dared to stand below the steps, not daring to approach.

Sheng Yu lowered his head, fiddling with the vermilion Hair Tie on his right wrist.

Leaving with another man right in front of him?

Zhu Yuan had only taken two steps when she heard the man's nonchalant voice from behind: "Yuanyuan."

The low, magnetic voice felt like an electric current passing through her chest; Zhu Yuan went completely numb, unable to take another step.

He had never called her that before.

It was clearly the same as how others called her, yet coming from his mouth, it carried a bit more lingering ambiguity.

Sheng Yu turned his head, looked at her stiff back, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

He stood up and strode forward with his long legs, causing the girls by the glass window to let out bursts of exclamation.

Too noisy.

Sheng Yu lowered his eyes and swept a cold glance over them; those girls were instantly frightened into stepping back.

Withdrawing his gaze, he walked slowly to Zhu Yuan's side and turned to look at her, "You want to go with him?"

"Sir, please stop harassing Yuanyuan. Your behavior is very unkind and very ungentlemanly. Please leave."

Zhuang Jingxiu poured out a string of words, but Sheng Yu didn't even give him an extra glance.

Instead, he stared straight at Zhu Yuan.

Zhuang Jingxiu noticed Zhu Yuan's nervousness.

"If you don't want to deal with him, you go first, I'll talk to him." Zhuang Jingxiu wanted to help her out of the situation, "If he continues to harass you, we'll call the police."

Sheng Yu raised an eyebrow.

A man who couldn't carry a load or lift a weight, whose only solution was to call the police, and who was completely useless—was he worth her spending time on a blind date?

Zhu Yuan gripped the strap of her backpack tightly, "Brother Jingxiu, you go back first."

How could Zhuang Jingxiu feel at ease leaving her alone to face that man? "If we're going back, we'll go together. If you have anything you need to make clear to him, you say it first; I'll wait for you."

He had a good impression of Zhu Yuan, but it hadn't reached the point of liking her so much that he couldn't live without her.

It was just that he could be considered someone who had watched her grow up; how could he feel at ease leaving her here alone?

People in this society nowadays were full of hostility, and even perfectly fine breakup scenes could easily escalate into murder cases, especially since this man was too overbearing and clearly not a good person to cross.

"Are you sure you want to wait for her?" Sheng Yu gently wrapped his arm around Zhu Yuan's shoulder.

Zhuang Jingxiu's face darkened, and he subconsciously took a step forward to rescue Zhu Yuan.

But alarm bells rang in Zhu Yuan's heart; she knew how crazy Sheng Yu could be, yet she could never predict what he would do next.

Just like now, Sheng Yu's hand held her shoulder, turning her body around without the slightest effort.

Before she could react, her vision went dark, and she felt a cool touch on her lips, along with the familiar, crisp scent of tobacco. She suddenly widened her eyes, her face burning as if on fire—it was both shame and anger!

She wanted to break free from his restraint, but one push failed, and she could only be pulled tighter into his embrace.

Sheng Yu raised his eyes to look at Zhuang Jingxiu, who stood frozen in shock opposite them, gave a contemptuous laugh, and moved his hot, damp lips to her ear, "Yuanyuan, tell this eyesore to disappear."

Zhu Yuan used all her strength this time and successfully pushed him away.

Thinking of being kissed in front of the brother who had watched her grow up, Zhu Yuan was overwhelmed with shame and anger, "Brother Jingxiu, you go back first, I'm fine."

Even though Zhuang Jingxiu had lived abroad for so many years and was long accustomed to seeing people kissing in public.

This was the first time he had seen such a barbaric and unreasonable kiss!

"I'm calling the police right now!"

Zhu Yuan hurriedly stopped him, "I can handle it, you go back first."

Zhuang Jingxiu asked again and again if she really didn't need his help.

Sheng Yu narrowed his eyes—what a long-winded man!

Zhu Yuan felt his anger and quickly said something to put Zhuang Jingxiu at ease, "He is not a bad person."

Not until she ensured Zhuang Jingxiu had walked out of the coffee shop and gotten into his car to leave did Zhu Yuan finally let out a sigh of relief.

She walked out indignantly, with Sheng Yu following behind her. Watching her hair ends sway gently as she walked, he reached out and lightly grabbed a small strand, "I haven't even gotten angry yet, and you're already giving me the cold shoulder?"

She suddenly stopped, but remembering what day it was, she swallowed the words she wanted to use to scold him and deliberately retorted: "You ruined my blind date, are you satisfied now?"

Sheng Yu toyed with that strand of hair and lifted his eyelids slightly to look at her face, which was suppressing its rage, "Something with no challenge to it; it's not a matter of being satisfied or not."

The meaning behind these words was that he hadn't taken Zhuang Jingxiu seriously at all.

Zhu Yuan ignored him and walked quickly out of the coffee shop. A taxi happened to be parked outside; she opened the door, sat in, and told the driver the address.

When she returned home, Zhuang Jingxiu's grandfather had already left.

Zhu Qi was sitting on the sofa drinking tea and watching the opera channel on TV, with its high-pitched, warbling tunes.

"How did the chat with Jingxiu go?" Zhu Qi set down his teacup.

Enzo, who was coming downstairs with a suitcase, pricked up his ears to listen carefully.

When he heard Zhu Yuan say that she still hoped to get along with Zhuang Jingxiu as friends and siblings, he let out a sigh of relief.

Indeed, after Miss Zhu had been with someone like Young Master Sheng, how could any other man possibly catch her eye?

Zhu Yuan had a flight that evening.

Zhu Qi wanted to stay in Yucheng and live in a place he was familiar with. Zhu Yuan couldn't win against him, and not wanting to go against the old man's wishes, she entrusted a relative to help find a housekeeper to take care of her grandfather's daily needs.

After Enzo dropped her and Ji Xiang off at the Airport, he left.

However, he did not leave the Airport, but instead went to the VIP lounge.

Seeing Situ, he said fawningly, "Tu Ge, I missed you."

Situ remained expressionless, "Get in."

Entering the VIP lounge, Enzo walked up to Sheng Yu.

"Young Master Yu, Miss Zhu and the others have arrived."

Sheng Yu gave a grunt of acknowledgement, his finger swiping across his phone screen; Enzo accidentally caught a glimpse, it was Miss Zhu's social media feed.

"I have something to show you."

As he spoke, Enzo pulled his phone from his pocket, opened the photo album, and presented the phone to Sheng Yu as if offering a treasure.

"This is a photo of Miss Zhu when she was little; I took it while Ji Xiang was looking at it, I just... happened to snap a picture."

Sheng Yu took it and glanced at it.

Looking at the pink, chubby little girl in the photo, he raised an eyebrow.

To be this fat and still refuse to admit she's a pig!

Enzo stifled a laugh, "Zhu Laoyezi said Miss Zhu was very fat when she was little, and her family called her Fatty Yuan, which sounds quite similar to the name of the Feiyuan you keep."

Sheng Yu stared at the girl in the photo, his gaze meaningful.
