Chapter 291, Chapter 289: Then Be My Boyfriend (Next Chapter Blocked)
She glanced at him as she spoke, then turned and left.

Shen Yan resigned and pulled her away.

Qin Zhao slapped him: "Don't touch me!"

The loud slap startled the pigeons on the nearby sculpture, who flapped their wings and flew away.

Shen Yanci's face was turned to one side, with a bright red handprint on it.

Shen Yanci's jaw was clenched, his eyes were dark.

Qin Zhao's palms felt a little numb. She looked away and struggled, "Let go."

Shen Yanci not only didn't loosen his grip, but tightened his hold on her wrist even more: "Before you lose your temper, can you at least get the facts straight? I told you it has nothing to do with her."

"It's okay, she'll stay in your villa. It's okay, she knows you're impotent!"

"..."

He pursed his lips and reached for his phone with one hand.

Qin Zhao struggled for a moment, and Shen Yanci's expression was one of suppressed tension before a storm: "Do you want to be forcibly kissed right now?"

Qin Zhao fell silent.

The call was connected.

Shen Yanci's voice was filled with displeasure: "Xia Shuang, what did you say to my girlfriend?"

Xia Shuang was stunned: "Where did you get a girlfriend? Don't you like boys?"

"..."

Shen Yanci: "Don't start spreading rumors about me."

"No, didn't you like that guy in the Polaroid photos? He's quite handsome. The photos are all worn smooth from being handled so much."

Shen Yanci glanced at Qin Zhao and pulled her over.

Qin Zhao vaguely realized something, and stopped struggling.

Shen Yanci held his phone up to her: "Is it her?"

"No, that's not it." Xia Shuang was speechless. She wasn't blind. "Short hair, a boy!"

Shen Yanci: "Go back to China and see your ophthalmologist."

"..."

Xia Shuang chuckled.

Shen Yanci didn't want to waste time talking to her, so he hung up the phone.

Qin Zhao glanced at him.

Shen Yanci pursed her lips and made a second call.

“Yan Ci.”

"Uncle, are you my real uncle?"

"..."

"Am I not your real uncle or a fake uncle?" Xia An was speechless.

"what's your name?"

"..."

"Yanci, are you alright?" Xia An's face was filled with mixed emotions. "Tell your uncle what happened."

Qin Zhao gently tugged at his sleeve.

"Just tell me your name, your sister's name, my mother's name, and your daughter's name."

Xia An was puzzled, but did as instructed: "My name is Xia An, my sister is Xia Ning, and my daughter is Xia Shuang."

"Thank you uncle."

How did such a good child turn out like this? Xia An scratched at the door. Is the pressure of studying for a master's degree in the UK really that high?
Shen Yanci hung up the phone, took out his mother's ID card from his phone, and pointed the screen at her: "My mother, Xia Ning."

He swiped the screen, revealing a family photo: "Second row, second from the left, my uncle, Xia An. Next to him is his daughter, Xia Shuang, the girl you saw at the villa."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Qin Zhao for two seconds, then released her hand, looking at her as if to say, "Let's go."

Qin Zhao's hand was still in the position where he was being held.

The lack of restraint only created a sense of discomfort, causing her fingers to twitch slightly.

Shen Yanci didn't look at her. He sat down on the bench, raised his chin slightly, and the handprint on his face was clearly exposed to Qin Zhao's view.

Stubborn, innocent, pitiful, angry.

Qin Zhao cracked her knuckles and sat down next to him: "I'm sorry."

Shen Yanci tilted his head slightly, making the red mark even more noticeable.

Qin Zhao awkwardly gripped the air with his fingers, wanting to touch it but not daring to.

She tentatively tugged at his sleeve one last time.

"Why are you touching me?" Shen Yanci turned her face away. "Didn't you say I couldn't touch you? Now you can touch me?"

Her voice was soft: "I'm sorry." "You did a great job, why are you apologizing?" Shen Yanci's lips were straight. "You blocked me whenever you wanted, without listening to a single explanation. I searched for you for two hours, and when we met, we didn't exchange more than three sentences and it was considered over. If I tried to pull you up, I'd slap you in the face."

Qin Zhao's eyes were filled with guilt and helplessness at having done something wrong: "I'm sorry."

Shen Yanci glanced at her, his face revealing an unmistakable sense of grievance.

Qin Zhao's eyes trembled, and he raised his hand to place it on the palm print.

Her hands were as cold as ice cubes.

Shen Yanci's eyelids twitched slightly.

Qin Zhao lowered his eyelashes: "Does it hurt?"

Shen Yanci: "It doesn't hurt."

Qin Zhao was taken aback.

Shen Yanci lifted his eyelids slightly and said indifferently, "You didn't use any force at all, slap me again."

"..."

Qin Zhao didn't dare to say anything about his sarcastic remarks.

"I thought you..." Qin Zhao's voice trailed off, "...why didn't you tell me you moved?"

Shen Yanci glanced at her sideways: "Didn't I say I was going back to London when I came?"

"I thought you meant airplanes."

Qin Zhao's voice was extremely soft because he felt guilty.

She didn't continue the topic.

She pursed her lips: "What do you mean by Polaroid? Is it me?"

"Besides you, do I have anyone else around me who is as good at cross-dressing as a man?"

What does "it has developed a patina" mean?

Shen Yanci closed his eyelids slightly: "Exaggeration, haven't you studied Chinese?"

"..."

The red mark on my hand hadn't faded yet, and the skin under my palm felt a little hot.

Qin Zhao pursed his lips slightly: "In these three years, have you been with anyone else?"

Shen Yanci's voice was very low: "No."

He clicked his tongue after he finished speaking: "I've been very busy. In my freshman year, I was busy getting over a breakup; in my sophomore year, I was doing an internship and working on projects; and then, in my junior year, you showed up, didn't you?"

He should really suspect that she came at the exact moment to torment him.

He paused for a moment, then added, "Many people are pursuing me, but I'm too busy to have time."

Qin Zhao felt a mix of emotions, and asked in a low voice, "You haven't made any appointments either, have you?"

Shen Yanci laughed in exasperation: "What kind of person do you take me for?"

Qin Zhao: "I was just asking, and I can tell you I didn't."

"No."

Shen Yanci raised his eyelids slightly: "I've only kissed you, I'm satisfied."

The gurgling water from the nearby fountain pool filled the air with its sounds.

Qin Zhao's heart felt as light as if it were floating: "Then, what did you mean by saying your girlfriend just now?"

Shen Yanci looked up into her eyes and asked, "And you, on what grounds are you hitting me?"

She held her hand on his face for a while; the back of her hand was so cold it felt like an ice cube, and it grew colder and colder.

Shen Yanci took her hand away.

Qin Zhao looked at him and suddenly said, "Shen Yanci, I don't want to pursue you anymore."

The nighttime temperature was so cold it seeped through your skin and made your bones ache.

Her hand was gripped so tightly it hurt. She frowned and looked at Shen Yanci, saying, "It hurts."

Shen Yanci's expression was indifferent, his eyes a dark abyss: "Is it interesting to play me for a fool?"

"I wasn't kidding you."

Qin Zhao: "Do you like me?"

Shen Yanci's lips were straight: "Do you want to hear what you said earlier?"

Qin Zhao looked at him: "You never said you liked me."

Her eyes were clear and bright, and she exhaled a little white breath.

Shen Yanci closed his eyelids slightly and said in a low voice, "I like it."

"Then be my boyfriend."
