TISHW 146




 Chapter 146 Hit a straight shot

The scene was a little quiet. It was unknown whether it was due to the shock by the Qin Family's heir dropping his air with Jiang Yu or by Jiang Yu's calmness when facing the Qin Family's heir.

The man next to Qin Luochuan thought Jiang Yu didn't know who Qin Luochuan was and quickly introduced him, "This is Young Chief Qin of Sheng Qin Group, Qin Luochuan."

Jiang Yu nodded politely, "Hello." 

Still, she didn't stand up.

People around her looked at each other in confusion. Sun Lingqian’s unsettled heart was now at ease. With her pampering and arrogant behavior, even if Qin’s heir liked her at the beginning, he would still hate her in the future. Did she think she was pretty, she could do whatever she wanted? 

"Jiang Yu..." Just as Sun Lingqian was about to teach her a lesson for Qin Luochuan, she saw Qin Luochuan smiled politely at her, "Miss, apologies, can you give way?"

Sun Lingqian was stunned and quickly stepped aside, "Oh, okay, Young Chief Qin, please."

Qin Luochuan sat down opposite Jiang Yu and then raised his head to direct to the people around him, "I want to talk to Miss Jiang alone. Can you all go and do your own business?"

A man immediately responded, "Okay, Young Chief Qin, please talk." 

He notified everyone to leave. At the end he instructed Jiang Yu, "It's rare for Young Chief Qin to show appreciation. This is your opportunity, so make the most of it."

After that, everyone in the store left one after another. Only a bodyguard was guarding the door.

Jiang Yu was stunned to see this. This domineering CEO was to the max. Under normal circumstances, shouldn't he take her to an office to chat? Cafes were public places.

But Qin Luochuan obviously thought this was his charm. He looked at Jiang Yu, "How is it? They won't dare to bully you again in the future."

He probably thought Jiang Yu would be moved, but he didn't expect her to tilt her head and think, "You know they bully me?" 

She seemed to understand something, "So you actually saw them targeting me, but you waited aside for a while. Then appear at the right time to embody your heroic role in saving the beauty."

Qin Luochuan looked at her in surprise. She guessed right. He couldn't help but smile, "You are a little different from other girls."

Jiang Yu held the coffee cup and said calmly, "I guess you have said this to many girls." 

She used an affirmative sentence.

Qin Luochuan seemed to find it interesting, "You seem to be hostile to me?"

Jiang Yu felt confused, "I don't even know you."

Qin Luochuan laughed, "You want to be the eldest madam of the Qin Family, but you don't know me? This doesn't make sense, does it?"

"I know there is such a person. But your mom won't mention it to me. Qin Shiyu never told me." Jiang Yu responded. Then with a slight hesitation, "Second Younger Brother?"

Qin Luochuan choked before laughing, "You seem to be really interesting." 

He stared at Jiang Yu, "My eldest brother never mentioned me at all? Then he never mentioned that I’m the heir of the Qin Family?"

"Oh, really?" Jiang Yu took another sip of coffee. She didn't dare to drink more now, for fear that she wouldn't be able to hold it in for a while.

Qin Luochuan stared at her for a while and was surprised to see that she was still calm, as if this matter was of no importance to her, "You really don't care?"

Jiang Yu shook her head. Care my ass. It had nothing to do with her.

Qin Luochuan smiled, "It seems that you have been misunderstood by everyone. You actually love my Eldest Brother sincerely." 

He said with admiration, "There aren’t many pure women like you nowadays."

For some reason, Jiang Yu felt that the words coming out of his mouth were so greasy that she wanted to hit someone.

Qin Luochuan continued, "My Eldest Brother does have the capital. Growing up, countless women have been attracted to him, but no one can successfully stay by his side. Do you know why?"

Jiang Yu continued to sip the coffee. Still the same words, what did it have to do with her?

Qin Luochuan didn't mind her coldness and continued, "Because he has no heart."

"My Eldest Brother is a monster. Even his mom hates him, so he hates this world. Due to this he doesn't love anyone..."

Jiang Yu paused her action on sipping the coffee and looked up at Qin Luochuan.

Qin Luochuan saw the coldness in her eyes and raised his eyebrows, "Are you feeling distressed? Since you are pursuing him, you should know that what I said is true."

At this point, he suddenly looked outside, "Shall we make a bet? Will he come to you after seeing me here?"

The cafe in the building had a glass partition. The two of them could clearly see the handsome man coming out of the elevator. The other man had one hand in his pocket, while his expression was the usual laziness. His appearance attracted everyone's attention at once.

When he saw the people outside the coffee shop, he revealed a slight surprise. Soon, he noticed Qin Luochuan and Jiang Yu.

Qin Luochuan smiled provocatively at him and looked back at Jiang Yu, "Did you know that he once had a fiancée?"

"Childhood sweethearts who grew up together and were engaged for a few years. However, he couldn't bear to share a cup with the other party. Later, the other party fell in love with me because she couldn't stand his coldness. Then the engagement with him was broken off at the engagement party and he was disgraced. He simply gave up without saying a single unnecessary word."

Qin Luochuan seemed to recall the scene at that time and found it very funny, "Don’t you find him helpless and pretending to be cool. Does he really not care?" 

As he spoke, he leaned closer to Jiang Yu, "He even gave up on the childhood sweetheart heiress, do you think he will fight for you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a voice drawled out from the door, "Please make way."

Qin Luochuan was stunned for a moment, turned around in surprise, and saw Qin Shiyu standing at the door of the coffee shop.

Not only him, everyone else looked at him. Although Qin Luochuan said that everyone should do their own thing, there was even a one-in-a-thousandth chance of catching up with Heir Qin. How could these people who want to join the entertainment industry give up so easily?

But they never expected that Qin Shiyu would dare to confront Qin Luochuan's bodyguard.

Sun Lingqian told him with a complicated gaze, "That's the heir of Sheng Qin Group. He admires Jiang Yu very much and wants to chat with her alone." 

She felt very strange now. She was jealous of Qin Luochuan's regard for Jiang Yu as well as satisfied that Qin Shiyu was about to be dumped by Jiang Yu.

Wasn’t he quite proud? Now in front of capital, wasn’t he a pitiful creature?

However, Qin Shiyu still didn't look at her. He stretched out his hand and pinched the bodyguard's wrist holding the door handle. It was unknown how much strength he used. The bodyguard's expression changed and he released his grip instantly. Qin Shiyu pushed the door open and went in.

The bodyguard immediately wanted to give chase when hearing Jiang Yu's voice clearly sounding, "Is Young Chief Qin's bet by relying on the bodyguard to block the door? Is it because you can't afford to lose, or afraid of him?"

Qin Luochuan came to his senses. Upon hearing this, he immediately waved to the bodyguard. The other person withdrew again.

Amidst everyone’s shock, Qin Shiyu walked straight to Jiang Yu, reached out and naturally rubbed her head before sitting down next to her. Even though Qin Luochuan was sitting across from him, his aura strangely didn’t become inferior.

"What are you talking about?" he asked Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu said, "Betting to see if you will come to me." 

She looked at Qin Luochuan, "Second Younger Brother, you lost. What's the prize?"

Qin Luochuan didn't look at Jiang Yu, but looked at Qin Shiyu curiously, "This is the first time I see you caring so much about a woman? Is it because you can only catch such a woman? Or have you reduced yourself to the point where you are willing to bend at the waist to coax a woman for 50 million?”

Before Qin Shiyu could speak, Jiang Yu spoke first, "It's probably not the first time you've followed your Eldest Brother’s butt to pick up things. Is it because you know his things are good? Or is it because you have such low self-esteem that you can only do this to find your presence?”

Qin Shiyu and Qin Luochuan were both stunned. Qin Shiyu didn't expect that Jiang Yu, who had been quiet, would stand up for him.While Qin Luochuan was confused by what Jiang Yu said.

After coming back to his senses, he couldn't help but laugh, "Are you not mistaken? Me with low self-esteem?" 

He seemed to have heard some big joke, "I, the heir of the Qin Family, have low self-esteem?"

Jiang Yu spoke slowly, somehow similar to Qin Shiyu, "But the way your defense broke through says everything."

"Do you want me to help you prove it?" Without waiting for Qin Luochuan to speak, Jiang Yu said: "The known conditions: your mom is a mistress and you are an illegitimate child. Because of the disgusting things your parents did, Qin Shiyu, the eldest son became suppressed like this and you are now the heir of the Qin Family."

"According to public order and good customs, the heir of the Qin Family should be Qin Shiyu, but now it is you. This proves that you being the heir of the Qin Family is a mistake in itself. This is one of the conditions that causes you to feel inferior."

"Based on the principle of 'showing off what a person lacks', you show off that you are the heir everywhere and even come to me, an insignificant person, to say something to show off. This indicates you have a guilty conscience for holding the title of heir and worry it can be lost at any time.”

"Similarly, when it comes to Qin Shiyu's fiancée breaking off the engagement, you clearly only need to say that his fiancée dislikes his coldness and breaks off the engagement at the engagement party. However, you superfluously emphasize that it was because the other party is in love with you. You feel proud. Why are you proud? Because that was someone who loved Qin Shiyu. In fact, you know deep down in your heart that he is the best, so the things he had had were the best. "

"But the fact is, Qin Shiyu's fiancée isn't with you. She hadn’t fallen in love with you. And even if Qin Shiyu was cold and inhumane, there are still many people who love him. So as long as he shows that he cares a little, you rush to follow behind him and try to pick up whatever dropped, hoping to prove that you have the same charm as him. The people who love him will love you. It's a pity..."

Jiang Yu picked up the coffee cup and took a sip, "Even if you're a woman like me and even if Qin Shiyu doesn't love me, I still won't like you. After all, I've seen the perfect match, nothing else can catch my eye."

"In the end, the conclusion is: not only is your reputation improper, you also have no charm. So it’s natural for you to feel inferior."

Qin Luochuan never expected that his dazzling light in front of Qin Shiyu would turn out like this in Jiang Yu's mouth. Uncontrollable anger arose in his heart. He laughed out in anger, "Jiang Yu, do you think you are very smart? Or do you think that as long as you love him, your life will be complete? Why not ask, does he really love you? "

Jiang Yu couldn't hold it in any longer and said concisely, "What does it have to do with you?"

"I don't think I have anything to talk to you. So let's leave it at that." After saying that, she stood up and motioned for Qin Shiyu to leave.

Seeing that she was impatient, Qin Shiyu followed her and planned to leave.

However, Qin Luochuan couldn’t give up after being humiliated like this. He stood up in front of them and stated coldly, "Did I let you go?"

As he finished speaking, the door of the cafe opened and his bodyguard rushed in.

Jiang Yu was startled and felt like crying without tears. She wanted to go to the toilet. Why was it so difficult?

Qin Shiyu noticed her expression was amiss, lowered his head and asked, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Yu no longer cared about being reserved and whispered in his ear, "Nature’s call."

Qin Shiyu was stunned for a moment and then couldn't help laughing.

Jiang Yu glared at him, "Is it funny? If you keep laughing, I will become a joke."

"Of course not." Qin Shiyu smiled. The next second his eyes suddenly sharpened. Before Qin Luochuan could react from the coldness in his eyes, he felt the world spinning. Then there was severe pain in his arm. He couldn't help but scream.

The bodyguard was instantly startled, "Young Master!"

Others were shocked. No one expected Qin Shiyu to take action.

Qin Shiyu got closer to Qin Luochuan, who had a dislocated arm, and lowered his head and whispered in his ear, "Qin Luochuan, I don't care how you mess with other matters, but Jiang Yu... I’m solemnly telling you once, she is my bottom line.”

There was a bone-chilling coolness in his tone. Even in pain, Qin Luochuan could hear clearly, not only his tone, but the content of his words. Qin Luochuan raised his head in shock and looked into Qin Shiyu's cold eyes.

He was sure that no one had ever seen Qin Shiyu like this. There was a chilling anger in his eyes that had never had much emotion. It was as if they could pull him into a lower level at any time. Qin Luochuan couldn't help but feel a wave of chill in his heart. It was so cold that he couldn't move.

However, the next second, his good-tempered Eldest Brother laughed again, leaned over and emphasized every word in his ear, "Bottom line, do you understand? That is, if you touch her, you will die!"

In a daze, Qin Luochuan got thrown aside. Qin Shiyu suddenly became the careless and carefree young man again. He lazily said to the anxious bodyguard, "Send your young master to the hospital quickly. If you are late, your job may not be guaranteed."

The bodyguard really couldn't care about him anymore and anxiously went to help Qin Luochuan. While Qin Shiyu hugged the stunned Jiang Yu and they walked out quickly, "Hurry."

Jiang Yu came to her senses and ran quickly. But when she reached the door and saw the stunned Sun Lingqian, she suddenly stopped and turned to ask Qin Shiyu, "Did you just talk about the script? Do you want to be the leading actor?"

Qin Shiyu couldn't help but looked at her, who looked for stage presence in such an emergency. He couldn't help be amused and pretended to be confused, "What script? Oh, Chief Zhang mentioned it to me, but that script is a big production. There aren’t any official investments yet, only a few scattered individuals have mentioned it to him. The scattered amount isn't enough. They want to take advantage of the dividends. Whether it could make any profit, it was another matter.”

Sun Lingqian's expression changed. Others looked at her in confusion.

Jiang Yu nodded reservedly, "So that's it." 

After speaking, she walked out steadily. Qin Shiyu followed. When she was sure to be out of everyone's sight, she quickly thrust the coffee cup into Qin Shiyu's hand and ran quickly toward the bathroom. She endured to death.

Qin Shiyu watched her hurried back, couldn't help but chuckle, and walked slowly outside the bathroom to wait for her.

Recalling the way she had stood up for him, his heart felt as if it was soaked in a hot spring, feeling soft. One must know that she had never spoken in an unfamiliar environment and in front of unfamiliar people. Just now, she loudly helped him out and even berated Qin Luochuan into speechlessness...

Jiang Yu... Qin Shiyu recited this name silently in his heart. An oasis seemed to emerge from his desolate chest, full of joy.

Looking down at the coffee cup in his hand. There wasn't much in it. She probably brought it out because she was nervous. There was a pink lip mark somewhere on the edge of the cup. Qin Shiyu could imagine her sipping it obediently. Drinking coffee...

Jiang Yu finally came out of the bathroom feeling very relieved. She immediately saw Qin Shiyu sitting on the sofa in the hall waiting for her. She was about to speak, but couldn't help but be stunned.

She saw him lazily slumped on the sofa, still holding the coffee cup she stuffed in his hand, and gently rubbing the rim of the coffee cup with his thumb. This was actually a very common action, but maybe it was because of his thin lips. Or maybe it was the look of lowering his eyes that made it difficult to see clearly. For some reason, this action seemed a bit abstinent and sultry.

Jiang Yu pursed her lips subconsciously, then quickly shook her head to drive the messy thoughts out of her mind. To abstain from sexual desire, one must first have desire before one can abstain. Emotionless people like Qin Shiyu can't do that. Probably because that was her coffee cup, she had a strange association...

Quickly get him to throw it away. Jiang Yu thought this when Qin Shiyu raised the cup to his lips and drank the coffee directly...

Jiang Yu couldn't help biting her lip.
