Chapter 187: Which fish in your pond does he count as
"Damn, it's considered light if I didn't kill you."
Several people looked at Zhao Zhouyuan and then at Xie Qin, all pondering what Zhao Zhouyuan had done to make Xie Qin say such words that didn't sound like a joke.
The atmosphere fell into a dead silence.
As soon as this sentence was said, everyone inside and outside the office heard it clearly, and all eyes looked toward Xie Qin.
Seeing that the situation was wrong, Xu Zhouyuan put away his grinning face, stood up, and closed the conference room door, "What's the situation, did you eat gunpowder today!"
Zhao Zhouyuan pinched her palms tightly, her beautiful face showing some sadness, she looked into his eyes, moved her lips, and said with difficulty, "You... you... already know..."
Xie Qin spat out the last puff of smoke, stepped forward to extinguish the cigarette in his hand in the ashtray on the table, lowered his eyes, raised his gaze and continued to fall on her, the sinister aura on his body didn't decrease, his mocking tone, idle and spoken: "Where on earth did you get the confidence to think... without her, I would be able to fancy you?"
"I... I'm sorry..." Zhao Zhouyuan trembled her long eyelashes, the original emotion was replaced by a panic, her eyes were a bit moist, gradually turning red, "I know... I was very selfish to do this. Because of me... I delayed you for so many years."
"I just... like you too much."
"I thought... without her, I would have a chance to be with you..."
Xie Qin didn't have any extra emotions in his heart because of her self-moved confession. Xie Qin didn't know how many times he had heard such words from how many people. To him, these confessions were too ordinary, painless and irrelevant, and he was even too lazy to perfunctory when seeing her tears, and disdained to comfort her.
His brows frowned slightly, his eyes impatient, "Don't let me see you in Wuchuan again in the future, otherwise..." His tone paused, dropping a warning of a few words: "Consequences at your own risk."
Seeing him turn and leave, Zhao Zhouyuan chased a step forward, tears falling down, her throat choked with pain, "Seven years ago! Do you still remember, when you fought with people outside the school at Chengde University, the other party used a knife and almost hurt you..."
"It was me... it was me who called the police."
Xie Qin turned his back to her, his hand on the handle, and stopped the action of pushing the door out.
"That Friday after school... I heard about this, I was worried about you, so I secretly followed you, I was afraid you would be hurt..."
Zhao Zhouyuan said this as if to retain something, looking at his thin and cold back, her heart seemed to be tightly gripped by an invisible hand, all of which were obsessions that couldn't be dissolved, tears falling along her cheeks: "Xie Qin... I went to Chengde University because of you! I felt that only in this way could I be closer to you."
"I know... I'm not as beautiful as Shen Li, nor do I have her good grades, I can't compare to her in anything."
"But I... have really tried very hard to change, everything I did was just to be with you."
"Xie Qin... I like you..."
"I really like... like you so much."
"I liked you for a full eleven years..."
Xu Zhouyuan's pupils widened, inner heart: Wow! So explosive!!!
Zhou Mingyu: Eleven... eleven years? Really have something.
The two looked at each other tacitly, both seeing shock and disbelief in each other's eyes.
"And then?" Xie Qin laughed low, took his hand off the door handle, turned around, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took one out, threw it into his mouth and lit it, the corners of his lips curled, his posture idle and indifferent as he looked at her.
The air was silent for a while.
Zhao Zhouyuan's eyes were full of sadness, tears flowing continuously, staring at his cold eyes, wanting to say something but didn't know, what reaction she should have next, what kind of words she should continue to say.
Xie Qin spat out a puff of smoke, his eyebrows raised slightly: "Finished?"
"If you're finished, pack your things and leave!"
As the words fell, his gaze turned and landed on the other side: "Xu Zhouyuan."
Xu Zhouyuan was stunned for a moment, and immediately responded: "Ah? What's up?"
Xie Qin: "Handle her resignation."
…
In the public classroom of Jiangchuan University with dozens of people, Shen Li sat in the middle, feeling like she was dreaming from morning until now, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, she held her phone on silent and sent a message to Zhang Zixin, without too much foreshadowing, directly entering the theme.
Shen Li: 【Do you know how to pursue someone?】
Zhang Zixin just finished the live broadcast, her throat was smoking, she took a sip of water from the straw in the cup, and saw the message on the table, picked it up and looked: 【Sister, why do you say that?】
Then another one: 【You want to pursue Xie Qin? Does he... still need you to pursue?】
【Isn't it just a matter of hooking your fingers???】
Shen Li looked at the message in confusion, still thinking about how to reply, Zhang Zixin's messages jumped one after another: 【I don't even want to say it.】
【I just asked you to drink some alcohol last night to give yourself some courage to find him and talk clearly.】
【He called and scolded me so much that I didn't sleep all night.】
Shen Li frowned slightly: 【He scolded you?】
Zhang Zixin replied: 【Scolding wasn't scolding, it was just being lectured by the one in your family.】
【Thinking that I took you out to relax and drink some alcohol was not doing human things (smile).】
【We haven't seen each other for so many years, we are all adults, what's wrong with going to a bar to drink some alcohol?】
【Does it have anything to do with him (smile).】
【Which fish in your pond does he count as.】
Shen Li: 【Don't pay attention to him.】
Thinking about it, she replied a few more sentences, her tone carrying a bit of protection: 【Xie Qin is still quite easy to talk to.】
【He should have been affected by other things last night, so his temper wasn't very good.】
Zhang Zixin looked at the phone screen and choked on water, coughing continuously for several times: "Cough cough cough."
Easy to talk to?
She's crazy.
Should she go to the studio to inquire and understand Xie Qin's market?
Zhang Zixin: 【?】
【I can't explain it clearly by sending messages, I'll come to find you in a while (smile)】
Shen Li looked at the smile emoji, Zhang Zixin sent several, thinking it was used to ease the tone, so she followed up with one: 【Okay (smile)】
After the conversation with Zhang Zixin ended, she realized later that their topic had gone off track.
She hadn't answered her yet.
Thinking about it, she felt it was better not to ask again.
She was in a bad mood now.
Shen Li sent a message to Xie Qin: 【At noon, can I invite you to dinner?】 After editing the text, she felt that this was not very sincere, so she changed a way of language, deleted and re-edited, and then sent it over.
Shen Li: 【If you have time at noon, can you give your pursuer a chance to invite you to dinner? (smile)】
In the office, Xie Qin was typing code to catch up on progress, heard the phone ring, stared at the screen and picked up the phone, tilted his head and lowered his eyes to scan the information. After seeing the message and the expression behind it, his expression paused for a while, and after a while, he hesitated, and typed out a 【?】.
