448 chapter 448-intimate as if no one was around
thank you, but itâs fine. Iâll go to the gym in front. Itâs just a few steps away.
gu yi looked up and saw the gym not far away.
âthe gym? cousin shi yan, are you here to work out or to look for someone?â
âIâm looking for someone.â
âIâm leaving,â he nodded to Gu Yi.
Gu Yi trotted after her. Iâll walk you. Itâs only a few steps away, but itâs chaotic here at night. Iâm not at ease until I see the person youâre looking for.
shi yan stopped and looked at him.
âjie, iâm your cousinâs friend. itâs fine if we didnât meet, but since iâve met him, i really canât just stand by and do nothing. itâs not far anyway, so iâll send you to your friend. otherwise, i wonât be able to explain to su mu if something happens to you.â
âiâve been thinking of changing to another gym recently. itâs a good time to visit this one,â she added, as if she was afraid that shi yan would reject her.
Since he had already said so, she couldnât reject him anymore.
After all, he had said that he would take a look at the gym.
âthen iâll have to trouble you.â
âyounger cousin shi yan is too polite.â
âSpeaking of which, I still owe younger cousin Shi Yan An apology. That day at the hot spring resort, my relativeâs younger sister made you unhappy. Logically speaking, she deserved whatever happened to her, but her parents were kind to me. she came to haicheng alone, and her parents asked me to help take care of her. i canât just leave yingluo alone.â
cousin Shi Yan, Iâm very sorry. Iâve been helping you deal with the lawyer you hired these few days and have completely cleared Gu Yuanyuanâs name.
when he met shi yanâs gaze, gu yi smiled a little guiltily. â but donât worry, i will give you an explanation. in a few days, i will bring gu yuanyuan to you personally to apologize! â
âNo need.â
âpresident gu, if you have the heart, please keep an eye on her and donât let her appear in front of me again.â
her words were tough, but her tone was neither fast nor slow, and her tone was not heavy. it sounded more like she was discussing.
But it only sounded like it.
Gu Yi didnât think so. To him, it was a warning from her.
In just two short sentences, she was strong but not tough. She was really the eldest daughter of the Shi family.
âsince itâs shi yanâs younger cousinâs request, i will naturally do as she says. iâll keep a close eye on gu yuanyuan and wonât let her look for cousin shi yan again. if i canât keep a close eye on her and give her another chance to cause trouble, i wonât interfere anymore. cousin shi yan can deal with it however she wants.â
from what he said, it seemed that his relationship with gu yuanyuan was also very ordinary.
Shi Yan didnât say anything more. She glanced at him and continued walking.
three minutes later, he entered the gym.
jiang che was on the second floor, while shi yan took the elevator directly to the second floor.
She asked Gu Yi to leave, but Gu Yi said that he was worried about leaving until he sent her to her friend and insisted on following her. He also called a gym staff to ask about the gym and did not give Shi Yan a chance to refuse.
in the end, he still followed shi yan to the elevator.
the gym took up two floors, and each floor was very wide.
It was obvious that this was a large gym. At this time, there were many people working out in the gym, but Shi Yan still saw Jiang che at a glance.
Even though he was dressed in sports attire like many others here, Jiang che was definitely the most eye-catching one.
Gu Yi saw that after Shi Yan came out of the elevator, the smile on her face was more sincere than before. He followed Shi Yanâs line of sight and instantly understood.
So she was here to find a boyfriend.
From the looks of it, she must have taken a liking to this fifth Lord Jiang.
however, it was also understandable. a person like fifth lord jiang, who was so eye-catching with his appearance alone, was probably someone that no young girl would dislike.
jiang che was running on the treadmill. shi yan approached him but did not make a sound to disturb him. she stood a few steps behind him.
She only had Jiang che in her eyes and no longer cared about Gu Yi. Thus, Gu Yi sent the gym staff away and stood beside her without leaving. She didnât care either.
gu yi didnât say anything, but his eyes kept darting between shi yan and jiang che. no one knew what he was thinking.
about ten minutes later, the treadmill stopped. jiang che got off and was about to drink some water when he saw shi yan standing there.
her eyes instantly lit up with a smile. she raised her head and drank more than half of the bottle of water. then, she walked straight to shi yan and lowered her head to kiss her on the cheek.âhow long have you been here? Why didnât you wake me up?â
âi didnât want to disturb you since you were running.â
As she spoke, Shi Yan took out a handkerchief from her bag to wipe his sweat.
jiang che bent down to stop her.
âMiss Shi, how can you use the word âdisturbâ between us?â
âalright, i used the wrong words.â She helped him wipe his sweat and folded the handkerchief.
Jiang Cheâs gaze fell on the handkerchief, and the corners of his eyes raised slightly.âthe embroidery on your handkerchief looks like aunt shenâs handiwork.â
âi bought it from aunty shenâs shop. i bought it the day we met for the second time.â at that time, she had only taken a fancy to this handkerchief because she had seen the bamboo embroidered on it and thought of him.
He had a bamboo-like character.
âI bought it that day.â
jiang che actually knew.
that day in shen miaoâs shop, she had picked out such a handkerchief and it was hard for him not to notice.
Shi Yan put the folded handkerchief back into her bag and asked him with a faint smile,âDo you still want to work out in the gym or go back?â
Jiang che raised his hand to look at the watch on his wrist. It was the couple watch that Shi Yan had given him.
âi usually train for an hour or two, but iâve only been here for less than forty minutes. if youâre not in a hurry to go back, why donât you stay here with me for a while? or you can practice with me for a while.â
miss Shi, youâve been busy with your studies recently and havenât been exercising much. You canât go on like this.
âNo, I exercise early in the morning too.â
although she only practiced boxing and fish for three days, she used to be like this too. in the past, the most she did was run. recently, she didnât run, but she would take a walk after meals.
Moreover, when she was with Jiang che, she didnât have that much energy to train. Jiang che often tormented her until she didnât even have the energy to get out of bed.
Physical fitness?
She wasnât worried at all. Her body was in good condition.
Seeing that she was still so self-righteous, Jiang che laughed and pinched her face.
âThen youâre going to sit here and accompany me?â
âalright,â he said.
The two of them were so intimate that they seemed to have completely forgotten that there was someone else beside them. Gu Yi coughed.
only then did jiang che release his hand from shi yanâs cheek and look at him. shi yan also looked at him. Although it was not obvious, Gu Yi could see what Shi Yan wanted to express in her eyes.
she was wondering why he was still here.
gu yi,âyingluo.â
âFifth Lord Jiang,â he greeted Jiang che.
âsince cousin shi yan has met her friend, iâll take my leave first.â
After he finished speaking, he nodded at Jiang che and turned to leave. he didnât meet jiang cheâs gaze the entire time. it wasnât contempt, but more like he didnât dare to look him in the eye.
however, neither shi yan nor jiang che felt that there was anything wrong with this.
There were only a few people in the world who dared to meet fifth Lord Jiangâs gaze.
âwhy would he be with you?â
