The days went by smoothly. Besides going to work and treating Tang Chen’s leg, Shen Zhiyi had been improving her treatment plan in her free time.

Ever since she fell in love with Tang Chen, she had bid farewell to all entertainment activities. Even just looking at Tang Chen made her feel happy.

Before going home, Shen Zhiyi stopped by the market to buy some ingredients.

When she found out that Tang Chen was in the study upstairs, she went into the kitchen and personally prepared a candlelit dinner. She asked the maid to leave and clapped her hands in satisfaction.

“Done.”

After taking a shower in the bathroom downstairs, she changed into a sexy and elegant red dress. She let down her tied-up hair and walked upstairs to the study in her high heels.

“Young master, I just saw Miss Shen preparing a candlelit dinner. She even opened a bottle of red wine with quite a high alcohol content. I think it’s very likely that she wants to get you drunk and then… you know.”

Hearing Tang Qiang’s voice, Shen Zhiyi stopped pushing the door and seemed to be deep in thought.

A drunken mess?

She could consider it.

However, in the next second, Tang Chen’s cold words extinguished the romance in her heart.

“What I hate the most is pestering. Shen Zhiyi is too tactless.”

“Young master, Miss Shen only likes you.”

“There are so many people who like me. Do I have to respond to all of them?”

Tang Qiang’s tone was puzzled. “But your attitude towards her has become much gentler recently. I thought you were moved by her.”

“Heh.”

Tang Chen lit a cigarette. The side of his face reflected in Shen Zhiyi’s eyes was cold and cold.

“Tang Qiang, if you were me, what would you do? The premise is that you hate Shen Zhiyi’s pestering. You Can’t avoid her. She’s like a fly that circles around you all day long.”

… Fly?

Shen Zhiyi felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, and the color on her face faded.

Tang Qiang scratched his head. “I don’t know.”

Tang Chen exhaled a puff of smoke and said coldly, “In order to get rid of her, I can only pretend to be polite with her and then be cold and violent. When she can’t stand it anymore, she’ll leave.”

He rubbed his forehead, and his tone turned irritable.

“But I’ve already done this, and she still keeps pestering me. It’s so annoying.”

Hearing this, Shen Zhiyi’s body trembled slightly.

“Then what does young master plan to do next?”

Tang Chen hummed and seemed to be considering it. “Perhaps, I can pretend to agree to her confession and find a woman to act as a betrayal. I should be able to get rid of her. Isn’t that what the TV shows are all about?”

“You’ll hurt Miss Shen if you do that.”

“She was the one who rushed me to ruin her. It’s not my fault.”

”…”

Shen Zhiyi could no longer hear what they were going to say next.

She turned around and walked back step by step.

In the dining room, the romantic and warm candlelit dinner was like a joke, laughing at her self-indulgence and her pointless persistence.

Shen Zhiyi sat on the chair and lowered her head silently.

Suddenly, she felt a pat on her shoulder.

“Shen Zhiyi, what good thing did you encounter today that is worth celebrating?”

Shen Zhiyi raised her head and squeezed out a smile with difficulty. In a hoarse voice, she said, “To confess to you, is this considered a good thing?”

Tang Chen frowned and quickly smiled. “Yes.”

“Then do you agree?”

Shen Zhiyi stared at him, not missing the flash of rejection in his eyes.

“Shen Zhiyi, actually, I’m very happy to be with you. If you really don’t mind that I’m a cripple, we can just live like this for the rest of our lives.”

“Really?”

“Yes.”

“Then do you like me?”

“Yes, I like you.”
