C78 – Nothing Between Us

After leaving the hotel, Wen Shuyue was ready to drive home but unexpectedly found that someone pricked two tires of her car. Both rear tires were flat and she could not drive the car at all.

“Damn it, who did it?”

For a moment, Wen Shuyue couldn’t figure out who hated her so much and had her tire punctured. How abominable! Now that the car was broken down here, how could she get back?

It was easy to take a taxi at this time, but now she had become a bad woman in many people’s hearts. If the driver should do something to her, how would she deal with it?

Holy crap!

Wen Shuyue felt helpless. It seemed that now she could only find someone to take her home.

“Lin Lin, answer the phone!”

She called Lin Lin first, but there was no answer on the other end of the phone. She had called several times, but there was no answer. She didn’t know if Lin Lin was asleep.

In China, she really didn’t know whom to turn to except Lin Lin. After all, she was only a nodding acquaintance with her colleagues in the company. She couldn’t bother them to pick her up.

“Whew!” 

In desperation, Wen Shuyue could only take a deep breath and was ready to look for a hotel anywhere nearby. It would be okay to take a taxi back tomorrow morning.

“I’ve seen you standing here for a long time. What’s the matter?” He Siming saw Wen Shuyue a long way away. Seeing that she was still here, he came to check the situation.

At the moment of seeing He Siming, Wen Shuyue’s dull eyes suddenly lit up, but soon they seemed to be extinguished by cold water.

She smiled bitterly and pointed to the flat tires, “The tires were punctured, so I can’t drive home now.”

“I’ll take you back.” As soon as He Siming finished talking, Guan Yue hurried over to drive and didn’t give Wen Shuyue a chance to refuse.

Although she was still in some awkward situation with He Siming, it was better for her to have someone take her home than stay here. Wen Shuyue could only get into He Siming’s car.

The two were silent in the car. Guan Yue spoke from time to time to break the silence. But there was too much silence between them, and Guan Yue just said a few words and then stopped talking.

The atmosphere in the car became colder and colder. Although it was already winter, Wen Shuyue clearly felt that the atmosphere in the car had reached the freezing point. It was so cold that she could hardly breathe.

“Gu Ning seems very interested in you. You two work in the same company. Has he ever shown any affection for you?”

After a long time, He Siming finally opened his mouth to break the boredom. However, what he asked made everyone in the car shocked. Even Guan Yue didn’t think He Siming would say this.

Wen Shuyue tightened his lips and pondered it carefully for a moment. Then she replied lightly, “You must have misunderstood. I’ve been friends with him for years. If he were interested in me, he would have told me. Besides, Gu Ning has a girlfriend now. There is nothing between us.”

“Are you sure there’s nothing between you?” He Siming didn’t believe her and repeated her words to make sure.

“Yes, I’m sure there’s nothing between us. If so, how could he…” Wen Shuyue blurted it out without thinking, but in the middle of it, she realized she was wrong.

There were things she couldn’t tell Him Siming, and she wasn’t in a position to tell him now. After all, in He Siming’s heart, she was just Baobao’s mother. 

She didn’t finish her words as if she was hiding something. He Siming’s face darkened, and he looked so dangerous that no one dared to get close to him.

Wen Shuyue suddenly regretted getting in his car. She couldn’t understand his mood swings. Sometimes, He Siming lost his temper with her for no reason, and even she didn’t know why he did it.

Shouldn’t she be the one to lose her temper? She saw him flirting with other women. She could not even get the question out of her mouth. She was the one who felt the worst.

In the following period, neither of them spoke. He Siming sent Wen Shuyue home and left directly, without even a goodbye.

“Why send me back if you’re so reluctant?” Wen Shuyue couldn’t help muttering under her breath.

Looking at the rolls Royce speeding away, Wen Shuyue’s nose was so sour that she wanted to cry. Did she care more and more about him now?

Why did she still lose control of her feelings when she knew there was no possibility of them being together?

“Buzz…”

Just as Wen Shuyue was sad, the phone suddenly rang. It was Lin Lin calling.

“Hello,”

“Shuyue, where are you now? Just now He Siming’s special assistant called me and told me that we could go to see your dad tomorrow. Hurry up and put off the company’s affairs, and I’ll pick you up first in the morning.” Lin Lin said excitedly.

Wen Shuyue stood in a daze. She was stunned for a few seconds before she could react quickly and exclaiming excitedly, “All right! I’ll arrange it at once, and you can come and pick me up early tomorrow.”

It was terrific that she could finally see dad.

Wen Shuyue’s eyes were red with excitement. She didn’t expect He Siming to be so indifferent to her on the surface, but he secretly solved her dad’s problem. 

Regardless of their emotional conflicts and misunderstandings, she must thank him for this matter. If it had not been for He Siming, she might not even know where her father was now.

The next morning Lin Lin came to pick up Wen Shuyue, and they talked about it all the way.

“He Siming is so nice to you. He has suppressed all the rumors about you and him. There are no pictures of you on the Internet. Perhaps no one knows you now when they see you.” Lin Lin said with envy. How she wanted to get this kind of attention from He Siming! But her charm was not as good as her best friend.

Wen Shuyue felt warm in her heart and nodded, “Yes, so I owe it to him. When I finish my dad’s business, I will invite him to dinner to express my thanks.”

“You must thank him for this time. And I think he must like you, otherwise, he would never have done so much for an irrelevant person. ” Lin Lin began to inculcate Wen Shuyue with these ideas again.

Although Lin Lin stated the reasons very strongly, Wen Shuyue was quite clear about why He Siming was doing this. He is Baobao’s father anyway, and he did all this for her to make it up to Baobao.
