TISHW 148




 Chapter 148 Hit a straight shot

Qin Shiyu chuckled lightly and handed the coffee cup to Jiang Yu. Jiang Yu quickly took it and wanted to throw it into the trash can. However, she hesitated and decided to take it away to throw it outside.

Watching this, Qin Shiyu laughed, "What? Do you think I will pick it out from the trash can?"

Jiang Yu did think so. She knew it was impossible, but before then, she felt it was impossible for Qin Shiyu to drink from someone else's cup? It was better to be cautious.

Qin Shiyu nodded in agreement upon seeing this, "Not bad, you have a very clear understanding of your own charm."

Jiang Yu:……

She stared at him expressionlessly, "I'm not sure about the lower limit of your perversion."

Qin Shiyu smiled and was about to speak when his cell phone rang. It was Assistant Ding calling. Qin Shiyu picked up the call, listened a bit, and responded, "En, nearly done."

When he hung up the phone, Jiang Yu wondered, "Are you in such a rush?" 

If she remembered correctly, he had received a call about the gold mine less than an hour ago. So he was going to handle it in person?

The efficiency was too high.

Qin Shiyu turned around and packed his luggage, "I have to go there anyway. Since there happens to be a buyer, it can be handled together. If lucky, it may directly be a smooth transaction. Even if it isn't suitable, if it’s taken care of this time, I won't need to go and handle it next time." 

At this point, he suddenly sighed.

Jiang Yu was confused, "What's wrong?"

Qin Shiyu turned around and looked at her, "I should have held back now."

Jiang Yu raised her eyebrows and heard him say, "Actually, I made such a tight schedule mainly because I wanted to come back and confess to you as soon as possible. But now..." His eyes fell on her face, "It feels like torture."

Jiang Yu's cheeks heated up and she muttered, "My fault?"

Qin Shiyu smiled, "It's my fault. I have poor self-control."

Jiang Yu felt that she couldn't stay with him any longer. Her head was so dizzy that she couldn't think clearly. So she coughed lightly, "You pack away then. I won't disturb you anymore. I have to catch a flight soon." 

Before leaving, she pondered and reminded, "That side isn’t as good as at home. You should be careful along the way and come back safely."

Qin Shiyu nodded, "Okay."

"Then I'm leaving." After Jiang Yu said that, she turned and walked toward the door. However, before she could reach the door, a strong force suddenly came from her wrist. Out of control, she turned around and fell into a broad chest in the blink of an eye.

A low voice sounded from above the head, "Sorry, let me hug you. I won't see you for the whole week."

Jiang Yu was a little stunned. Compared to the aggressive flirtation he had given, this real hug was actually more gentlemanly. His arms didn't even use much force, but pressed against Jiang Yu's body as if she could leave at any time. 

But Jiang Yu didn't know why she stood still. A chuckle sounded in her ears. A big palm caressed the back of her head. The arm on her body tightened for a moment, and then quickly released. The man took a step back, his eyes full of smiles and looking at her, "Don't worry, I'll be back soon."

Under his gaze, Jiang Yu felt embarrassed, turned away and muttered, "Who wants to mind your business."

Qin Shiyu rubbed her head again and suddenly said, "Actually, you..."

Jiang Yu looked up. When she saw his expression, she instantly felt wary, feeling that he was going to say something inappropriate again.

Sure enough, he said, "Want to take it back from me as a souvenir, right?" 

When he said this, his eyes fell on the coffee cup in her hand.

Jiang Yu unconsciously lowered her head and immediately saw the remaining lipstick on the rim of the cup. It was actually very light. Still, Qin Shiyu's expression instantly reminded her of the situation just now.

Jiang Yu's face that had recovered started to burn again. She felt that she was no match for Qin Shiyu in terms of perversion. So she glared at him and turned to open the door, "Bye!"

Qin Shiyu watched her almost fleeing back and touched his lower lip. Then he looked at his own hand and laughed unconsciously.

Since there was no rejection, that meant she like, right?

He lowered his head and sent a message to Jiang Yu: 【I hope you can give me the answer when we meet next time. 】

Jiang Yu threw the coffee into the trash can as if it was hot potato. When she saw the message from him, she gritted her teeth and typed quickly: 【What if my answer is rejection? 】

The other party quickly replied: 【I confessed to you to let you know my feelings, not to put any burden on you. If you don’t have feelings for me, I will leave voluntarily and it will definitely not affect your life. 】

A free and easy smiling emoji was added at the end. Still, it made people feel a little pity. 

Jiang Yu stared at this sentence, not knowing how to reply for a while. She couldn't tell which one was the real him. One moment he acted like an arrogant person, another moment he seemed like a considerate gentleman.

However, when she returned to City B, Jiang Yu looked at the compiled study and work schedule with an expressionless face, feeling that she was a fool for believing in him.

Especially when she saw the recording frame sent by the program team of 'Wonderful Holiday'. Compared to 'All Rounder', which was a high-spec, go-with-flow, and the audience shipping CP at will, 'Wonderful Holiday' had obvious sugar-making requirements.

Not to mention the interaction between CPs was more intimate, they would spend three days and two nights together day and night...

Jiang Yu didn't think much about it before. After all, she usually lived with Qin Shiyu and got along day and night. But now that she knew that he had been plotting against her for a long time and recalling the process of joining this program group, it was clear that she was induced step by step by him. 

When signing the contract, he deliberately emphasized liquidated damages...

Jiang Yu recalled what he said to the assistant director of 'Perfect Holiday', "I should be the one thanking the program team." No wonder he had been staring at her at that time...

Jiang Yu couldn't help but cover her face. This man was really...

Leave voluntarily? She could imagine that even if she refused, he would pull out this job and say that even if he wanted to leave, the job wouldn't allow it. And then...

The image of him raising his coffee cup and deliberately covering it on her lipstick mark suddenly appeared in her mind...

Jiang Yu ruffled her hair frantically and kicked her legs angrily, suddenly not wanting that guy to succeed.

The phone sounded. She picked it up at once. Sure enough, it was from Qin Shiyu. Counting the time, he should be changing planes.

Pursing her lips, she clicked on the dialog box and then saw the picture sent by the other party.

It was a pair of small cup pendants. Although the color was creamy yellow, the shape was the same as a coffee cup. There was a small red lip mark on the edge of the cup, but it was very obvious that it was painted artificially.

Then the second message was sent: 【I miss people when I see things. 】

Jiang Yu:……

She threw her phone down: Never let him succeed!

At the airport of a certain country, Xu Lehua hurried over, "Are your work arrangements so casual? Just leave as soon as you say it. Fortunately, I am handling things here, otherwise I would have to disappear for a week without seeing you in person."

Qin Shiyu came out of a store holding a pair of small pendants, "Why do we have to meet in person? If anything happens, just call?"

Assuming that he was bored from waiting for him and wandered around, Xu Lehua didn't pay much heed. He followed him and murmured, "Isn’t that side chaotic? In the first place, how did you get in touch with the governor there?"

Since the last time he saw Qin Shiyu and Abu confront each other, Xu Lehua felt more and more something was amiss the more he pondered about it.

He was similar in age to Qin Shiyu. When he was fifteen years old, he was still a kid in high school. What he worried about most all day long was how to get good grades and get rewards from his parents. While Qin Shiyu, he had already been to South Africa and bought a gold mine there.

No matter how smart he was, no matter how lucky he was, his experience was definitely not that simple since he could get a foothold in such a chaotic place.

Especially when thinking how his expression remained unchanging when stabbing Abu. If he didn’t have an emotional disorder or something like that, then he’s really experienced this.

So when he heard that he was going to fly to South Africa, Xu Lehua felt uneasy. Since he had time, he rushed to the airport to meet him, "How about I go with you? Do you need a bodyguard?"

Just as he was talking, he felt that the person next to him had disappeared. Xu Lehua stopped and turned around to find Qin Shiyu standing there holding a red watercolor pen and drawing something on a cream-yellow pendant cup.

Xu Lehua:......

No matter the little girl-like behavior or the cute-looking thing in the other person's hand, he was a little confused. What happened to Qin Shiyu during his absence?

It was indeed him who stabbed Abu with a dagger without changing his expression. Wasn't it his hallucination?

Xu Lehua couldn't help but move closer, "What are you doing?"

Qin Shiyu looked at the pendant in front of him with satisfaction, "Coffee cup."

Xu Lehua said, "This is a milk tea cup." 

His eyes fell on the small half-lip mark and he felt more and more that Qin Shiyu had been swapped, "Did you exchange souls with some wretched man? Why are you so perverted?" 

Qin Shiyu:...

He couldn’t be bothered to respond to him, picked up his phone, took a photo of the pendant and sent it.

Xu Lehua was used to his various anomalies and continued talking about business, "Did you hear what I said? I'll go with you."

Qin Shiyu put the pendant on his mobile phone, "No need, I can go alone. I go there every few years and am very familiar with it. There are reliable bodyguards."

Seeing Xu Lehua's distrustful look, Qin Shiyu continued, "Don't worry so much. I'll definitely be back before the recording of 'All Rounder 3' next week." After saying this, he paused and couldn't help but laugh, "Can't let a certain person escape.”

When he said this, he exuded a kind of vitality from the inside out, as if he was full of expectations for the return journey. 

Xu Lehua looked at him and his chest suddenly ached. The feeling that his heart had been hanging up for several years was suddenly put back into place made him feel a little distressed. Still, he was more happy and laughed, "What? You fooled Jiang Yu again." 

Before he finished speaking, Qin Shiyu started laughing uncontrollably, as if the word "Jiang Yu" was some magical switch that made him want to laugh when he heard it.

Seeing him caressing the pendant lovingly, Xu Lehua found it a little magical, "Is falling in love so great? You obviously didn't think anything was interesting before and said these were meaningless."

"En, I was narrow-minded before." Qin Shiyu looked at the pendant in front of him, his eyes full of joyful smiles, "Now I know that everything can have a unique meaning."

The phone finally rang. Qin Shiyu quickly clicked it. It was a photo, but the photo was of a telephone pole, and she put lipstick on it.

Below typed: 【This is all on the roadside, very convenient. 】

If you have the ability, hug the telephone pole and chew it all the way.

Qin Shiyu understood the implication of her words and couldn't help but be amused.

Look, from now on, the telephone poles suddenly became interesting.
