Chapter 41 [Why don’t you try again? ]

Chapter 40 [How about you try again? ]

They took a taxi to the city center and found a large supermarket in a commercial district. Chen Yan took Lu Sisi directly into a brand of down jacket store.

It’s not a luxury brand - Chen Yan is not a real rich man, and the money in the card is so small that he will have to deduct hundreds of thousands of dollars to compensate for the house.

Don’t even think about big geese or anything like that.

I chose a mid-range brand and asked the clerk to come over and recommend a down jacket suitable for Lu Sisi as soon as I entered the store.

Lu Sisi blushed and refused repeatedly. Chen Yan whispered, "You already owe me several lives, do you still care about having one more piece of clothing? Just pay me back when you make money later."

After hearing this, Lu Sisi became quiet instead. She looked at Chen Yan deeply with a complicated look, then obediently went to the mirror to try on clothes.

She picked out a beige down jacket for Lu Sisi to change into, and put her own cream-colored down jacket into the bag and carried it away.

Buying clothes only costs less than a thousand yuan.

Chen Yan found a small hot pot restaurant and treated Lu Sisi to a meal.

At the dinner table, Chen Yan was putting a plate of beef into the pot while casually chatting with Lu Sisi: "You've finished your exams, so you should be able to go home for winter vacation, right? Your home is in Jinling Prefecture, so there's no need for you to stay in school."

Lu Sisi thought for a moment and said, "Mom and Dad are taking my brother to play in Hong Kong. There's no one at home, so it would be pointless for me to go back."

Chen Yan paused for a moment: "Last time we met on the plane from Gangcheng back to Jinling Mansion..."

"Well, that time I went back with my family to worship our ancestors, but I wasn't qualified to enter the Yang Family Ancestral Hall, so I just followed them and worshipped on the roadside. I bought a plane ticket and came back the next day."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yan frowned and looked at the delicate girl in front of him.

Lu Sisi smiled easily. The girl's smile was very peaceful. She whispered, "I'm fine, Chen Yan. I always had accidents before, so my family used to avoid me. I'm used to it."

"Everything will be normal for you from now on, and your family will slowly get better to you."

"..." Lu Sisi shook her head gently: "I don't care about these things anymore."

"It's impossible not to care." Chen Yan sighed softly: "People are all made of flesh and blood. Who can really be completely indifferent to who treats them well and who treats them badly? Remember, even if others treat you badly, you should be nicer to yourself."

Lu Sisi bit her lip and said softly, "Chen Yan, why do I feel like you seem to have a lot of experience with what you're saying?"

"I don't have any parents, my grandmother raised me." Chen Yan smiled.

Lu Sisi was stunned, her mind turning, and when she looked at Chen Yan again, there was a hint of something else in her eyes.

Chen Yan nodded, stretched out his chopsticks, and tapped the bowl in front of Lu Sisi: "Everything will be normal for you from now on. You don't have to be so cautious every day. Smile more often."

Hearing this, Lu Sisi gave Chen Yan a gentle smile, revealing her snow-white teeth, and then asked, "Such a smile?"

"Yeah, just smile like that! This smile is beautiful."

"Okay, I'll smile more next time." The girl nodded vigorously.

She thought for a moment and continued, "Actually, I've been feeling very relaxed these past few days. I don't have to worry about anything every day. When I walk on the street, I feel very comfortable. Sometimes I sit on the side of the road and watch people coming and going. I've lived for eighteen years, and for the first time, I feel that this world is actually very good..."

Having said that, she stared into Chen Yan's eyes and said seriously, "Thank you!"

Chen Yan picked up a few pieces of beef for the girl and said, "Don't you want to go traveling? You can go out for a walk during the winter vacation. Don't go too far at first, just walk around the surrounding area."

"Ah."

"You can make more friends at school. You've been suppressing yourself too much before."

"Yeah, okay, I'll remember that."

Chen Yan nodded with satisfaction. He had been having a hard time in recent days. He then feasted on the meal and ate a plate of beef and two plates of mutton rolls by himself.

Lu Sisi's posture while eating was still very graceful. Chen Yan specially ordered a grilled fish for her. The girl was picking out the fish bones with chopsticks and was enjoying the meal very much.

When Chen Yan was nine-tenths full, he put down his chopsticks, drank a sip of water, and then looked at Lu Sisi quietly with a serious expression.

"I have something to ask you... Do you remember the name of the master who read your horoscope and told you your fortune in Hong Kong?"

Lu Sisi thought about it seriously and shook her head. "I don't remember his name when I was five years old. But... I still have some impression of his appearance."

After a pause, the little girl said, "His eyebrows are very thick, like two big brushes, quite distinctive."

"Haven't seen him since he was five?"

"No more." Lu Sisi shook her head: "That kind of master charges very expensive fees in Hong Kong City. My family doesn't like me, so they won't spend money to hire such an expensive master for me."

Chen Yan thought for a moment and said slowly, "When you go back and see your parents, you can ask the name of the master in Hong Kong City. If you can find out, tell me... But don't be too deliberate when you ask."

Lu Sisi frowned and looked at Chen Yan: "Is there something wrong with that person?"

Chen Yan smiled and didn't plan to tell the girl in detail, fearing that she would worry and get scared. He said vaguely: "I suspect that man is a liar. There must be something wrong with the fortune he calculated for you that year. It's nothing serious."

"Okay, I'll tell you if I ask."

Chen Yan added, "Try not to go to Hong Kong City recently. If... I mean if, that master wants to look for you, tell me immediately."

"...Okay, I'll listen to you." Lu Sisi was as docile as a kitten.

At first, Chen Yan just wanted to help Lu Sisi change her luck.

He had done it in the shadows, using a deceptive technique to fake his own death, which only allowed Lu Sisi to escape bad luck, but it didn't alert the "expert" in Hong Kong. However, as the two spent the few days together casting the spell, their relationship grew closer, and Chen Yan had already begun to want to help this poor girl and eliminate all future troubles!

It's not that I'm attracted by her beauty, nor am I moved by any feelings, but... this girl is so gentle and lovely that I feel pity for her and feel some sympathy and compassion for her.

I guess it's about seeing injustice.

As a man, a young man of his age, who doesn’t have a hero living in his heart?

It is said that young people are passionate. Perhaps only young people have this kind of heroic thinking in their hearts.

If I were a few years older and the world smoothed my edges, I would probably become more and more indifferent.

·
Although Chen Yan felt that he had been very careful, what if the guy in Gangcheng noticed it?
What if he steals Lu Sisi's fate, what other actions will he take afterwards?

Since he has decided to intervene and help to the end, Chen Yan also wants to help Lu Sisi solve the hidden dangers in Hong Kong City.

But...first find out the other party's name, and then find out about the other party's ability from the side.

Given Chen Yan's cautiousness, he had to be very careful for a whole day to deal with Luo Yunzhai, and he never showed up.

That guy from Gangcheng must be a real capable person.

Even though he had received the feedback gift package and his cultivation had increased several times, he still wasn't necessarily a match for the other person.

It’s better to be cautious.

If you can trick someone, don't confront them head-on.

After the meal, Chen Yan took Lu Sisi to the roadside and called a car for her.

Before getting into the car, the girl suddenly turned around and approached Chen Yan, stretching out her hands and hugging him around the waist.

Chen Yan was stunned!
Before he could react, Lu Sisi, with a red face, stood on tiptoe and gave Chen Yan a light kiss on the cheek.

God have mercy on me, as a 22-year-old single mother, Chen Yan's body was frozen.

Lu Sisi's face was red and almost bleeding, and she whispered quickly: "This is my first kiss... You have done so much for me, but I have nothing precious to give you.

Actually, I had another idea...

When I woke up that day, I planned not to leave at night and give myself to you...but you left anyway.

I understand that even if I give it to you, you will definitely not be willing to accept it.

So... while eating, I kept thinking about what to give you...

Chen Yan, if you don’t like me disturbing you, you must tell me, and I promise not to bother you.

I, I’m leaving…”

The girl finished her speech incoherently, got into the car like a frightened rabbit, and drove away.

Chen Yan stood there with his face covered, stunned for a few seconds before coming to his senses.

My first thought was: I’ve lived for twenty-two years and only now do I know what it feels like to be kissed by a girl... Girls’ lips are so soft.

The second thought was...

Is it too late for me to regret now?

Don’t say I don’t accept it!
Don't be so sure!
How about you try again?
I'm not that determined!!!

Should I call her now and ask her to come back?
Anyway, this is the city center and there are hotels everywhere.

Why don't you take it back to the villa?
Damn, that's too shallow. Wouldn't that ruin his character?

I was too arrogant before and I couldn’t get down from that position!

·
Feeling a bit annoyed, Chen Yan hesitated on the side of the road, preparing to call a taxi to go home.

Forget it, let’s stop here for today’s shopping…

Go home, go home!!
Suddenly the phone rang.

Chen Yan looked at the caller ID and saw it was a lickspittle.

As soon as the call was connected, Chen Yan asked, "What's the matter, Old Hu? Is there any progress in discussing the compensation for the house?"

"Not yet. I plan to get an estimate first, and then go meet the owner." Hu Licking Dog's tone was a little cautious, and he seemed a little hesitant: "I just encountered another problem, and I thought I'd tell you about it."

"whats the matter?"

"I just passed by the Extreme Internet Cafe, which was closed. The owner of the roasted chestnut shop next door was chatting with me and said that something happened at the cafe owner's house."

The playful smile on Chen Yan's face faded, and his expression became more serious: "And then?"

"They say the police came to the internet cafe last night and took the boss's brother away. I don't know the details." Hu Licking Dog said slowly, "I know you have a better relationship with the boss than the rest of us, and she treats you very well, so since I met you, I wanted to tell you."
