Chapter 215: Being attentive
When they came out of the hospital, Shen Chaohuai and Su Qi remained silent.
"You and he have no emotional foundation. He started targeting you as soon as you came into his life. He doesn't really like you. Don't believe him."
Shen Chaohuai gripped the steering wheel and slowly accelerated.
Su Qi looked at him and smiled with relief: "Do you think I'm the kind of woman who would be troubled by love?"
Shen Chaohuai's gaze lingered on her out of the corner of his eye: "So it was impossible for you before, but now..."
He suddenly thought of the fact that Su Qi's emotional gene fragments had been unlocked, which was not a good sign, at least for her, who had once been a cold-blooded emperor.
"What Zheng Ran cares about is actually me as I am now."
Su Qi knew very well that the original owner's cowardice gave Zheng Ran a sense of control, which meant that the original owner, like the other women who had been close to him, was nothing more than a plaything that could be discarded at any time.
The current her is not the original owner, and therefore she will not willingly be controlled by him.
The feeling of being out of control fascinated him with the current Su Qi. Because he didn't understand her, the more interesting the adventure it represented, the more he wanted her to submit to him.
Upon hearing this, Shen Chaohuai gripped the steering wheel tighter: "Alright, that's not important. In short, we need to be wary of this man."
"Understood." Su Qi leaned back in his seat, wearing sunglasses, his eyes closed, a smile playing on his lips.
Su Qi has no announcements recently and is on vacation. In her spare time, she works out to pass the time.
After sweating profusely, she wanted to take a shower when she suddenly received an anonymous message.
Even if you delete me or block me, I can still find you.
Su Qi frowned: "They're like a persistent ghost."
An anonymous message popped up again: "Open the door, I'm at your door."
Su Qi put down her things and walked out, leaning against the door frame: "You should go home and get some rest, or you might fall in front of my house and try to scam me."
Zheng Ran's face was indeed somewhat pale, and although his lips were slightly pink, he still didn't look very healthy.
"It's been so many years, are you still angry with me?" Zheng Ran's round, clear eyes were filled with tears. He lowered his head slightly and said, "We broke up back then because I agreed to marry Shen Qingyue."
“I know you still care about this matter. Don’t worry, as long as you give me a chance, I will break off the engagement with Shen Qingyue.”
Upon hearing this, Su Qi unintentionally gained access to information about the original owner of the body and him.
She chuckled: "Why don't you just break off the engagement and then come begging me?"
Zheng Ran frowned, surprised that she would say that.
He took out a rose from behind his back and handed it to her: "Let's do what we used to do. The first time I confessed my feelings to you, I gave you flowers, and you gave me a kiss."
Su Qi raised an eyebrow slightly. What a joke! Kissing someone like that? Just thinking about it makes me feel disgusted.
"Forget it, I find things that other people have touched dirty."
Hearing Su Qi say this, Zheng Ran felt a slight pain in his heart: "I didn't, I'm completely innocent! I've never had anything with Shen Qingyue, nor with that Shu Yu."
"No? Then what about Shu Yu's child?"
Shu Yu has disappeared without a trace, so there's no point in saying anything now. She waved her hand and said, "Forget it, I don't want to argue with you. We'll get photographed by paparazzi. Please watch your words and your identity."
Su Qi walked in and suddenly remembered that the original owner was a substitute: "That's not right, Zheng Ran, you should be looking for your white moonlight now, not coming to find me."
"To you, I am just a substitute."
Zheng Ran broke off a rose stem, which fell to the ground, and stared at Su Qi in surprise: "Let me explain, I'm doing this now..."
The door slammed shut with a bang. He sneered, realizing that he had fallen in love with a substitute was probably the most painful thing.
Not long after Zheng Ran left, there was another knock on the door. Su Qi got up angrily and opened the door, but her expression softened when she saw that it was Shen Chaohuai.
"He gave you roses?" This was the first question Shen Chaohuai asked as soon as he entered the room.
Su Qi paused for a moment, then laughed at him, "Wow, really? Are you jealous? Here to assert your dominance? Is this the first thing you ask?"
Shen Chaohuai blinked, trying to cover it up, and said, "No."
"Don't you care about the damage I've suffered, both physically and mentally?"
"Zheng Ran said he wanted me to kiss him, which almost scared me to death."
Hearing this, Shen Chaohuai became anxious and quickly reached forward to hug her from behind.
"What are you doing?" Su Qi was so startled by his sudden hug that she froze.
Shen Chaohuai's biggest worry is that Zheng Ran will suddenly realize his true feelings and start pursuing Su Qi in various ways.
He was Shen Chaohuai's biggest and most feared rival in love.
Having exhausted all his tricks, Shen Chaohuai finally decided to feign fainting.
"Hey? Hey!" Su Qi crouched down to check: "You were fine just now, how come you..."
Su Qi moved his body left and right, but found that he was still fast asleep.
"I'm having a hypoglycemic episode. I'm sorry, is it alright if I rest at your place for a while?"
She shook her head helplessly.
[Master, I've investigated. This Shen Chaohuai is clearly faking illness.]
Shen Chaohuai heard this, but only peeked out with one eye, saying, "I can't take it anymore, my head is so dizzy. Do you have anything to eat? Can I have some?"
He freeloaded on food and sleep.
Su Qi got up and went to the coffee machine: "I don't need to eat anything, there's only coffee at home."
"also……"
Su Qi moved Shen Chaohuai to the sofa, but she couldn't wake him up no matter how she called him, so Shen Chaohuai slept at her house for one night.
The next day, when Shen Chaohuai woke up, he complained of back pain and couldn't move, needing to rest for a while longer, and Su Qi agreed again.
Shen Chaohuai was unaware that it was almost impossible to get free food and lodging at Su Qi's house, and he was the only one who had ever done so.
"Then you should rest well."
A moment later, there was another knock on the door. Su Qi went to open it, and Zheng Ran was there again.
Zheng Ran, with his sharp eyes, immediately spotted Shen Chaohuai sleeping on the sofa.
He glared at Shen Chaohuai, said nothing, then suddenly smiled at Su Qi: "I brought you some gifts."
He walked in without any ceremony, took out the items from his shopping bag, and the first gift was a classic cheongsam worth 60,000 yuan.
He measured her clothes: "They fit perfectly. See, I even remember your clothes size."
Su Qi's brow furrowed, and he stood frozen in place.
"Go on? What's wrong?" Zheng Ran glanced at Shen Chaohuai: "It's just sending a gift. Xiao Qi's birthday is coming up soon, it's normal to send a gift, right?"
The original owner's birthday was in July, while Su Qi's birthday was in December. Shen Chaohuai chuckled softly as she thought of this. It was July now.
"That's normal, I have no objection."
Zheng Ran's recent attempts to win his favor have become too obvious; he even gave him a ring on the third day.
When Su Qi refused to no avail, Zheng Ran forcibly grabbed her hand and put the ring on her finger.
As expected, Shen Chaohuai noticed the ring on her middle finger.
"A ring worn on the middle finger means, in human terms, that one is engaged."
Su Qi covered her mouth and laughed: "You've been trying so hard to stay at my house these past few days, are you afraid I'll actually agree to him?"
Shen Chaohuai covered it up: "No, it's fine if you agree to him, that's your own business."
On the fourth day, Zheng Ran came to see Su Qi again, saying he wanted to take her on a trip.
