Chapter 391 She ran towards him
Zhou Yi froze, then subconsciously looked out the window.
Sir, would you like to come here?
Sir, aren't you going on a blind date at 11 o'clock? You should be almost at the meeting place by now.
But now that you've said that, what about Yu Yu?
Did you bring Yu Yu with you, sir?
Was Yuyu crying?
In an instant, a multitude of questions flashed through Zhou Yi's mind, and she quickly asked, "Sir, do you mean you're here to see me?"
"Ah."
Zhou Yi frowned immediately, his worry and tension evident in her eyes: "Sir, is Yu Yu crying?"
"not yet."
not yet?
It means that Yuyu hasn't cried yet because she hasn't gone to the blind date location, but she might cry if she goes there and sees the person she's going to meet.
Zhou Yi understood Wenren Chen's meaning. The master planned to pick up Yu Yu before she started crying. He also felt sorry for Yu Yu, so he was willing to postpone the time to pick her up.
Immediately, Zhou Yi gripped her phone tightly and said, "Okay, sir, when will you be arriving?"
Wenren Chen looked at the buildings outside the windshield and said, "Five minutes."
five minutes?
Wow, that was fast!
Zhou Yi looked at the sky outside the window and said, "Okay, sir, I'll get ready and come down."
"Ah."
Put down your phone and hang up.
Zhou Yi looked at the person sitting opposite her who had been watching her, but his expression was no longer the same as before.
He felt a chill.
It wasn't because of her, it was because of Wenren Chen.
Zhou Yi looked at Qin Shi, her eyes filled with apology: "Brother, I'm sorry, the teacher was afraid Yu Yu would cry, so he came here first and is on his way. He'll be here in five minutes. I..."
Zhou Yi pursed her lips slightly, twisting her hands together in self-reproach: "I'm sorry, I can't have lunch with you anymore. Next time, next time, okay?"
The old lady said that the husband had been on blind dates for a week, and that should be enough after a week.
Next week, she will ask the old lady and her husband for leave, and then cook a nice meal for her brother and eat with him.
Looking at that innocent face and the purity in those clear, bright eyes, Qin Shi said, "It's alright, I'll take you down."
After saying that, he put down his chopsticks, took a tissue to wipe his lips, and got up to leave the restaurant.
Zhou Yi watched Qin Shi leave, knowing he was disappointed, and immediately followed with her phone: "Brother, the master shouldn't be so busy next week. I'll find a day then to ask the master and the old lady for leave, I..."
Before he could finish speaking, Qin Shi stopped, turned around, and placed his long, jade-like hand on her head: "Yiyi, don't call me brother anymore."
In an instant, the previous topic returned, and Zhou Yi was stunned. Then, she said what she hadn't finished earlier: "Brother, is it because your mother knows you were transferred to Jinlan Hospital and have been taking care of Grandma that she told you not to get close to us anymore?"
That's the only reason; otherwise, I wouldn't have said that.
"No."
“We are not siblings, we are not related by blood, and I have never treated you as my sister.”
He lowered his head and gazed deeply at her; his glasses were like a clear pool, cold yet full of emotion.
Intense, profound.
Zhou Yi was stunned, then her eyes showed confusion and bewilderment. She parted her lips slightly and said, "We... in reality, we are not siblings, but from a certain perspective, we are. It is reasonable for me to call you brother, and you are older than me, so according to seniority, I should also call you brother."
If that's not the reason, then why is that?
Why did you suddenly say that, brother?
Or is there something she did wrong?
Thinking of this, Zhou Yi's heart tightened instantly.
Yes, it must be my fault, I did something wrong. For so many years, my brother has been taking care of her and Grandma, and he has given so much, but she hasn't given much back to him.
Everyone gets tired.
Therefore, I need to keep my distance from her.
Zhou Yi panicked immediately: "Brother, I..."
"I mean."
With his fingertips gently stroking her hair, Qin Shi's voice softened: "You've grown up. You're no longer the little girl you were in your teens. You're an adult now. In my eyes, you're not a little girl anymore, you're—a woman."
Zhou Yi was speechless.
Her eyes filled with a moment of confusion; she couldn't understand Qin Shi's words.
It seems that my brother doesn't mean to distance himself from her; he means something else entirely.
However, she couldn't understand what this other meaning meant at all.
Seeing her dazed and confused expression, Qin Shi smiled and said, "From today onwards, don't call me brother anymore."
After saying that, he took her bag and led her out of the house.
Looking at Qin Shi's expression, Zhou Yi could tell that he was in a good mood.
at this moment.
For some reason, her lips moved, as if she wanted to ask.
But just as he was about to speak, the phone in his palm rang.
She picked up the phone.
It was Mr. [Name] on the phone.
Has the gentleman arrived yet?
Without thinking twice, Zhou Yi quickly answered the phone: "Sir."
"I have arrived."
"Okay, sir, I'm coming downstairs now and will be out soon."
"Okay, I'll wait for you at the door."
"it is good."
Without saying anything more, Zhou Yi hung up the phone and said to the person leading her downstairs, "Brother, the master has arrived. You don't need to see me down; I can go down by myself."
"Go eat, the food won't taste good if it gets cold."
"It's okay, I'll eat later."
He held her hand tightly and led her downstairs.
The neighborhood is an old neighborhood, and the area is not valuable. Naturally, the streets and houses here are worlds apart from those in Yunzhou City.
The black Bentley came to a smooth stop outside the community gate. Its noble black color made it seem like a king had arrived, and everything here knelt down, submitted, and fell silent in an instant.
The driver got out of the car and opened the back door. Wenren Chen, holding his phone, came out and stood outside the residential area.
His eyes fell inside, looking at the old buildings.
Without expensive building materials, without the work of master architects, without the splendor of land worth its weight in gold, this place seems to be a corner abandoned by the world. Over the years, it has been washed and corroded, and the old residential buildings are covered with the marks of time, dilapidated and worn.
But when that person with a bun hairstyle, wearing clean clothes, and a slender figure came out, everything changed.
Wenren Chen stared at the person who came out of a building. Under the blazing sun, her face was fair and clear, her eyebrows and eyes were delicate and clean, and her lips, nose and chin were soft and obedient.
She was talking to the person next to her, her big eyes focused intently.
But when she saw him, her eyes crinkled, her lips curved upwards, and she immediately ran towards him.
Wenren Chen stood there, gazing at the person running towards him. The wind blew the stray hairs at her temples, and the sunlight fell on her, making the light dance.
Everything around him seemed to form golden waves at that moment, crashing towards him wave after wave.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and the deep, dormant depth within them surged terrifyingly in the bright sunlight at that moment.
