Chapter 1238: I can’t accept this
Translator: 549690339
Jing Zhi restrained his impulse. He didn’t forget his mission today. He deliberately said in a relaxed tone,
“Sister-in-law, I’m here on my brother’s orders to take you home. He said that you don’t want to see him now. Perhaps you’d be willing to come home if I had this cute and handsome face! If I can’t complete the mission, my only sports car will be confiscated, and I’ll have to walk wherever I go in the future. You can’t be that heartless, right?”
“Who said I don’t want to see him?” Shuyin asked, feeling a little strange.
She just didn’t want to rely on someone too much.
It did not cost her much to take a taxi to and from school, and it would be a waste of Jing Rui’s time to drive her back and forth.
!!Of course, it was good to have someone to pick you up, but you should get used to not having someone to pick you up.
“I can go back by myself. You don’t need to send me back in the future. I’m not a child, so it’s okay.”
Shuyin was on her period today, so she wasn’t feeling well and couldn’t lift her spirits. However, she still smiled faintly and said to Jing Zhi,””Your brother and I didn’t quarrel, and we didn’t have any conflicts. You don’t have to worry about us. You should worry about yourself!”
As she spoke, she stopped a taxi and got in. She left quickly, leaving Jing Zhi and Zheng yuluo some space.
Jing Zhi was about to catch up with the taxi when he heard Zheng yuluo call him in a delicate voice,””Jing Zhi, don’t go!”
He did not have much resistance to everything about Zheng yuluo, especially her tears and voice.
He turned his head and saw that her fair face was already covered in tears. In the end, he didn’t chase after Shuyin and stayed behind.
Seeing that he had not left, Zheng yuluo did not care about anything else. She carried her bag and directly opened the door and sat in the front passenger seat.
Jing Zhi opened his mouth, but he still couldn’t bear to drive Zheng yuluo out of the car.
He didn’t know when he had become such a soft-hearted person. Back in North America, not even a drop of blood could move him, let alone a tear.
Zheng yuluo only realized that she was being too bold after she got into the car. She sat there uneasily, her fingers twisted together. Seeing Jing Zhi staring at her with his calm eyes, she said in a low voice,””Jing Zhi, I want to talk to you. Please don’t chase me out of the car.”
Jing Zhi suddenly leaned closer to Zheng yuluo. Zheng yuluo thought he was going to push her out of the car, so she hugged his waist and cried,””I’m not getting out of the car!”
Jing Zhi’s body stiffened slightly. Zheng yuluo’s arm was tightly wrapped around his waist. He had never known that the slender and weak Zheng yuluo could have such great strength.
Her soft and fragrant body pressed against Jing Zhi’s body, making him feel greedy for her.
However, he still pried Zheng yuluo’s hand away, pressed her back into the seat, and leaned over to fasten her seat belt.
Zheng yuluo’s face turned red when she saw his action. She knew that she had misunderstood.
Jing Zhi didn’t want to push her out of the car, he just wanted to help her put on her seatbelt.
“Sit tight.”
Jing Zhi said calmly, then drove away from the University of X.
There were many students here, and people came and went, so it was not a good place to talk.
He drove the car far away and stopped at an empty beach. Then, he sat quietly and waited for Zheng yuluo to speak.
On the beach in the distance, there were couples walking side by side, some playing in the sea, and some people standing on the beach, kissing.
Jing Zhi looked at the couple on the beach, his expression dark.
Zheng yuluo also saw the couple expressing their love in the distance. She was both envious and sad. She wanted to ask him about Xiao Ling, but she was afraid that she had chosen the wrong topic, which would make Jing Zhi’s face turn even colder.
Fortunately, other than Xiao Ling’s matter, she had encountered something else today.
“Today, Lou ruofu came to the school to look for me. She knelt down in front of many people and begged me to help her plead for mercy to Shuyin. Did something happen?”
Jing Zhi was taken aback. He had no idea what had happened today.
Lou ruofu was sick? Why did he take such a big turn to ask Zheng yuluo instead of asking Shuyin directly?
What did this have to do with Zheng yuluo?
Jing Zhi didn’t answer her question, but asked,””Did you agree?”
“I didn’t agree to plead for her. I only agreed to help her pass on a message to Shuyin and help her apologize to Shuyin.”
“Yes.”
Jing Zhi’s eyes were still fixed on the distance as he said coldly,””Don’t get involved in this matter. It has nothing to do with you. It is a matter between the Lou family and the Jing family. My brother and I will handle it. You can just go to your class. ”
Zheng yuluo hadn’t seen Jing Zhi for a while, and she felt that Jing Zhi was a stranger.
His indifference seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, as cold as an Ice Mountain. The words he said were still considered considerate, but his tone was like that of a business man.
He wasn’t like this when he was talking to Shuyin just now.
Zheng yuluo suppressed the sorrow in her heart, nodded, and said in a low voice,””Alright, I understand. I won’t interfere.”
Even if she wanted to interfere, she couldn ‘t, right?
The car fell into a brief silence. The atmosphere was a little cold and suffocating, making people want to escape.
However, Zheng yuluo knew that if she ran away, she might not have a chance to clear things up with Jing Zhi in the future.
“Jing Zhi, about Xiao Ling …”
Jing Zhi frowned when he heard the name “Xiao mo.” He interrupted Zheng yuluo,””It has nothing to do with you. The dead can’t be brought back to life. Don’t mention it again.”
Zheng yuluo had already prepared herself for Jing Zhi’s rejection when she brought this up, and Jing Zhi’s reaction was within her expectations.
“I didn’t mean to bring it up. I had to bring it up. If you ignore me because of this, I won’t be able to accept it!”
It was rare for Zheng yuluo to be so sharp. She was usually gentle and easy to talk to, but she was really unwilling to give up on Jing Zhi.
He had long since taken root in her heart. It was simply impossible for her to like another man.
Besides, now that she knew that she had misunderstood the relationship between Jing Zhi and Xiao Ling, and that Jing Zhi had no feelings for Xiao Ling, how could she let this opportunity slip away from her?
“I’m also a victim. How would I know that someone would pretend to be Xiao Ling to meet me, send me messages, and send me photos? Besides, you were the one who sent her to North America to study. The person I saw at the airport that day was also you. You did hug her, so why can’t I be jealous?”
Zheng yuluo was a little emotional, and even her voice was raised a lot. However, her voice was naturally pleasant, and even when she spoke loudly, she still had the feeling of a delicate little girl.
Seeing that she was about to cry again, Jing Zhi patiently explained what he had just said.”When I said that it had nothing to do with you, I meant that Xiao Ling’s death had nothing to do with you.”
