Chapter 209 We Can Only Be Siblings and Brothers
Ever since she knew Sun Qi's thoughts, Jiang Shuya started to come to Leshan Road to supervise the work every now and then. She knew that Sun Qi would do her best to do the decoration work. Fortunately, Huang Minghao did not make things difficult for her these days. Maybe it was because Jiang Shuhuai lived downstairs, so everyone was living in peace.
However, Jiang Shuya could see from Huang Minghao's eyes that he disliked her, so she suggested that they move into the store's staff dormitory after the restaurant was renovated.
Huang Minghao only replied with a livid face:
''what ever.''
When she saw Li Xiaoru again, she found that she didn't want to talk to her anymore. Jiang Shuya realized that it was the dress that caused the trouble. She went to the bedroom and found the dress. She decided to try it on herself. If it didn't look good on her, she would give it to her.
As a result, once she put it on, the bright yellow color, the hollow design that made the waistline vaguely visible, and the comfortable and close-fitting fabric made her unable to take it off instantly. She looked in the mirror, gentle, graceful, lively and beautiful, and she really liked it. So she decided to be selfish for once and buy one from her cousin next time she met her.
The weather was too hot, so she tied her long black hair, which had been hanging loose, into a ponytail, which made her look instantly refreshed.
The rain in June came suddenly. Jiang Shuya was looking for another storefront on the east street of the city. She found a place to hide from the rain and waited for the rain to stop. At this time, Sun Qi came over from not far away. He was holding a black umbrella and walked around to Jiang Shuya.
"Sister-in-law, there is water on the ground over there, come here."
When Jiang Shuya heard this, she lowered her head and saw that her white shoes were half wet. She hesitated, wondering if she was getting too close to him under the same umbrella.
Sun Qi also knew that she had been avoiding him these days and didn't talk to him much. Every time, he would stand far away and not say anything, nor dare to get close. Even this time when they agreed to come to the East Station to see the storefront, the two of them walked one after the other and rarely spoke to each other.
Jiang Shuya lowered her head and stared at the ground, and found that where she was standing was a slope, and the rain was pouring from top to bottom from her feet into the manhole cover next to her.
Sun Qi reached out and pulled her, holding out the umbrella to her so that she didn't get wet. Jiang Shuya staggered and almost fell into his arms, but she held his sleeve and kept her distance.
The entire umbrella covered Jiang Shuya, but the rain wet Sun Qi's shoulders. He remained silent and continued to hold the umbrella for her.
Jiang Shuya pushed the umbrella towards him;
"Sun Qi, I think I need to explain to you that for the sake of our future cooperation, I only regard you as my friend and relative, but we can never develop into lovers. Our common goal is to make the restaurant better and stronger in the future."
Sun Qi managed a forced smile on his face;
"I know, sister-in-law, I will do my best, but I also want to say that you have divorced Brother Hao, and I will no longer call you sister-in-law from now on. In fact, we are the same age, so I don't think it's impossible."
Jiang Shuya didn't let him continue; "You can call me sister like Shuhuai."
Sun Qi frowned and moved his lips, but found that he couldn't shout at all;
"I will call you Shuya from now on. We are born in the same year, both rabbits, so we should have many common interests."
Jiang Shuya took a step back and found that she couldn't continue chatting with him. She glanced at the time. Today was the weekend and she had classes in the afternoon.
The rain became lighter. Sun Qi watched her walk away, followed her silently, and got on the bus. Jiang Shuya found that he also followed her, but he didn't get close, just followed from a distance, and didn't say anything.
Arriving at Sanshan Building, the rain gradually became heavier, Sun Qi held up the umbrella and walked in front of her;
"I'll take you in. There's still some distance to the stairs. I'll take the car back after you go in."
Jiang Shuya looked at the sky, which was covered with dark clouds. She sighed, and the two of them walked up the stairs quickly side by side.
After walking a few steps, she suddenly stopped and saw from afar Lin Moxiao standing at the door of the office building with one hand in his pocket, tall and slender, standing there firmly and steadily, silently looking in the direction she came from.
Jiang Shuya's eyes were a little dazed. She blinked, her spirit was tense, her heartbeat quickened, and then she turned her head to look at Sun Qi beside her.
"Sun Qi, hold me, hurry up!"
Sun Qi was a little confused. He raised his hand, hesitated for a moment, and gently placed it on her shoulders. The design of her skirt revealed half of her shoulders on both sides. They were white and smooth, and touched her skin, which was smooth, soft, and a little cool.
Jiang Shuya slowed down her pace and urged, "Hold me tighter."
Sun Qi held her in his arms tremblingly. Jiang Shuya stared at his nervous and slightly flushed face with her clear eyes and smiled.
The intimate behavior of the two was seen by Lin Moxiao who was walking towards them. He clenched his fists, pursed his lips into a straight line, and his blood suddenly boiled in his heart.
He didn't expect that the person he loved so much would fall into the arms of someone else again. He suppressed his anger and became furious. Finally, when he passed by them, he grabbed Jiang Shuya's arm, turned around, put his arm around her slender waist, and forcibly pulled her away from Sun Qi.
Before Sun Qi could react, he stretched out his hand to grab something, but it was empty.
Lin Moxiao gritted his teeth and lifted her chin to question;
"Jiang Shuya, how did you promise me that you would not be with other men?"
Jiang Shuya pushed him away angrily;
"Who are you to me? Why should I fulfill your promise?"
Seeing that she was fine, Sun Qi walked towards her. It turned out to be Mr. Lin, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
"Mr. Lin, what are you going to do? What does she have to do with you?"
Lin Moxiao glanced at the boy, looked up and down Jiang Shuya's skirt, and a weird smile appeared on his face;
"Huh, you're wearing the clothes I gave you and being with another man, don't you think it's ridiculous? It seems that the clothes I chose for you are very suitable for you! The fit is just right, and I know your size from head to toe clearly."
Jiang Shuya looked at him with eyes wide open, hesitating and backing away; "What nonsense are you talking about? Don't talk nonsense."
Lin Moxiao approached her, stared into her eyes, and sneered:
"Why, you doubt me, I didn't see clearly that night?"
Jiang Shuya was so angry that she couldn't breathe. Her throat seemed to be blocked. She covered her ears with her hands, closed her eyes deeply, and frowned.
That night was a nightmare for her, a nightmare of constant revenge by him. That rainy night, she was heartbroken and covered with scars. She thought that as long as she stopped provoking him and didn't bother him, this matter would pass quickly and would be gradually forgotten. She was also trying hard to forget it.
Her head began to spin. The nightmares and exhaustion of the past few days finally overwhelmed her. Time suddenly stood still, her brain seemed to be misfiring, her eyes went dark, and she slowly fell to the ground.
The rain water soaked the ground and stained her beautiful dress. The two men ran over. Lin Moxiao pushed Sun Qi away in panic, picked up Jiang Shuya from the ground, and quickly went to the car. Sun Qi followed closely behind. When he saw Lin Moxiao carrying her into the car and driving away, he hailed a taxi on the side of the road and followed closely behind Lin Moxiao's car.
