Gentle Beast [Entertainment Circle]

Chapter 55 - Zhiqiu



55

Jiangcheng’s enthusiasm is beginning to show in May.

The clouds change into various shapes and swim in the blue sky, and the soft posture like cotton candy makes people want to take a bite.

The breeze was blowing, Ye Liuying was hugged by the sun as soon as she stepped out of the apartment.

She wore an apricot-colored nine-point sleeved forest dress, and casually braided a ponytail around her temples, giving her a fairy-like air.

Meng Linzhou couldn’t come to pick her up temporarily because of something.

Ye Liuying didn’t mind either, and walked towards the subway entrance on light retro canvas shoes.

She didn’t sleep well last night.

Dazedly had a dream.

She doesn’t remember things in her dreams and usually forgets them when she wakes up.

But this time, Ye Liuying vaguely remembered a little boy.

In the dream, she seemed to have become very small.

The boy was wearing a black and white vertical striped shirt, about ten years old, and his facial features were particularly delicate.

When facing her, she was serious and indifferent. She chased after him and wanted to grab his hand, but he was quickly thrown away.

Ye Liuying felt a little weird in retrospect.

The most important thing is, why did the little boy grow a red mole like Shen Xingzhou?

This absurd dream tortured Ye Liuying so much that she didn’t get a good night’s sleep.

When I opened my eyes, it was about five in the morning.

So much so that she secretly made another note to Shen Xingzhou.

Ye Liuying went to Meng Linzhou’s hospital.

She held up a goose-yellow floral parasol and went to the convenience store to buy a bottle of mineral water near the subway entrance.

During this period, she also received a message from Wu Pei.

Are you afraid of heavy rain: [Waiting Baibai and waiting for this palace to spoil you at night]

Wu Pei’s film is already in the final stage.

After another ten days of filming, her role will be finished.

Ye Liuying just remembered her vacation the day after tomorrow, and decisively sent a cute emoji.

Then she put away her phone and picked up yogurt in front of the freezer.

The index finger of her right hand tapped her chin unconsciously, and her trembling eyelashes and amber round cat eyes were clean and transparent, and she couldn’t help but want to sink into them.

When she finally made her choice, a pair of slender and powerful arms suddenly appeared in front of her.

The blue and white shirt with good texture was rolled up by him at will, and the exposed skin was a cool white, with faint blue veins faintly visible.

He opened the freezer door and put his knuckled hand on the doorknob like an advertisement.

“Drinking ice early in the morning?” The young man lowered his head, and a clean and cold breath passed by her ear.

Ye Liuying turned her head slightly and silently asked Shen Xingzhou with an incredible look.

“What a coincidence.” Shen Xingzhou said with a smile, pretending not to see it.

“…” Trust you.

Ye Liuying rolled her eyes, turned her head and left.

Shen Xingzhou raised his eyebrows and took the most expensive bottle of mineral water from the freezer.

He watched Ye Liuying walking towards the door, and couldn’t help speeding up on his feet.

The young female cashier blushed when she saw Shen Xingzhou, her hands were a little sluggish.

Shen Xingzhou frowned slightly and quickly scanned the QR code to pay.

When Ye Liuying was about to turn a corner when he went out, he saw the sunshine beating on her apricot skirt, and he couldn’t help recalling the time he saw her in Jiang Ying.

She seems to have always been like this.

Clean and beautiful, soft but full of life.

Shen Xingzhou quickly chased after him.

He knew that she left Genting last night.

Recalling her apartment address, he spookedly settled in a house not far from her.

Guessing she was going to the hospital today, he got up early for a morning run in the neighborhood.

Then he saw the music she shared on the Moments in the morning, went back and took a shower and came out.

It is indeed a coincidence.

He saw her as soon as he went out.

Although there is a deliberate element in it, Shen Xingzhou still believes that there is a bond between them.

Eight o’clock in the morning is the time when the office workers are dispatched.

In the crowd of people coming and going, Shen Xingzhou saw Ye Liuying at a glance.

“Where?” Shen Xingzhou stepped forward and grabbed her wrist with his free hand, “I’ll see you off.”

“Let go.” Ye Liuying frowned.

“Didn’t you watch the latest news?”

Shen Xingzhou held Ye Liuying’s hand, there is no reason to let it go, “When the weather is hot, the subway will become more abnormal.”

The subway can’t get any more crowded at this time.

Ye Liuying didn’t know.

But she looked at Shen Xingzhou up and down, and asked deliberately, “Will you not encounter perverts if you don’t take the subway?”

This means taking him as a pervert.

Shen Xingzhou laughed angrily at her, and turned her around with force in his hand, “Then I’ll show you a pervert?”

“…” In terms of cheekiness, she lost.

Ye Liuying looked annoyed at Shen Xingzhou in front of her.

The golden sunlight kissed the profile of his face, and the angular lines were very superior.

Looking from Ye Liuying’s point of view, you can just see the mole at the end of his right eye. There are marks carefully carved by God everywhere.

Blessed.

The dream from last night jumped into her mind again.

Ye Liuying thought to herself that she was afraid that Shen Xingzhou had not been intoxicated, so how could she still dream of a miniature version of him?

What a hell.

“Just kidding you.”

Shen Xingzhou tilted his head to look at Ye Liuying. Seeing her thoughtful expression, he raised his lips happily, “Are you going to the central hospital?”

“Well…” Ye Liuying didn’t bother to ask how he knew, and followed behind him resignedly.

Shen Xingzhou did not intend to let her go.

He squeezed Ye Liuying’s hand and said proudly, “Why didn’t Meng Linzhou come to pick you up?”

“He’s not as busy as you.” Ye Liuying was pinched by Shen Xingzhou, and she tried to break free from his hand.

Not only did Shen Xingzhou not react, but he held on tighter, “I’m busy too, okay?”

He doesn’t say it convincingly, but it’s true.

“Today is Sunday.” Shen Xingzhou said dully.

This feels a bit miserable.

Ye Liuying didn’t know whether to be angry or to laugh for a while, so he sent her into the car.

“Chen Mei…do you need help?” Shen Xingzhou asked casually.

He didn’t hide his intention to help her.

Even if it’s bad intentions, it’s very ***.

But it wasn’t easy for him to say that.

Ye Liuying also understood this.

She could hear the rare sincerity in his tone, and his expression was calm, “No need.”

Shen Xingzhou didn’t know whether it was regret or discouragement.

He looked at the traffic in front of him and didn’t speak to Ye Liuying for a long time.

Ye Liuying opened the car window, and the cool breeze of early summer carried a just right kind of gentleness.

She couldn’t help yawning, and she still didn’t understand why she dreamed of Shen Xingzhou.

“Sleep for a while?” Shen Xingzhou estimated the distance and the condition of the car, and put a coat on her from the back seat, “It will take an hour to drive.”

Ye Liuying lowered her eyes in response, and the atmosphere was unusually harmonious.

She was really sleepy, she closed her eyes and took a nap in the light cedar aroma of Shen Xingzhou’s car.

Before losing consciousness, Ye Liuying seemed to see the annoying Shen Xingzhou again.

One time it was an adult, the other time it was a child, so annoyed that she wanted to die on the spot.

Then she fell asleep in a daze, unexpectedly sweet.

“I actually fell asleep…”

Shen Xingzhou turned his head to see Ye Liuying who was sleeping soundly, and couldn’t help but smile while covering her lips.

His good-looking eyebrows raised slightly, and his lowered voice was mixed with a little pampering.

It’s not the first time.

She slept defenseless in his car.

Shen Xingzhou felt a sense of achievement in his heart.

Satisfaction he had never had before.

It was also the satisfaction she brought him.

She said they were inappropriate?

Then he would have to be suitable.

after an hour.

The car arrived at the parking lot of Jiangcheng Central Hospital.

Ye Liuying hasn’t woken up yet.

She was still frowning in the dream, making him want to reach out and ease all her worries and unease.

“Aying?”

Shen Xingzhou leaned forward and approached Ye Liuying.

He looked at her face carefully, and his fingers lightly brushed the long hair from her temples.

Sunlight squeezed in from the car window, leaving a beam of light on her side face with nostalgia.

She tilted her head unconsciously, facing Shen Xingzhou’s face.

Shen Xingzhou looked down at her lips, his eyes darkening.

Ye Liuying put on light makeup, and her lip color was an attractive grapefruit color.

The lips are graceful like seagulls, with slightly protruding lip beads, which are very suitable for kissing.

The soft and sweet touch in his memory replayed in his mind.

Shen Xingzhou raised his hand to cover her eyes, lowered his head and kissed her.

He kissed carefully, dearly and hard.

Until the palm of his hand was swept by her eyelashes, and he felt that she was waking up, he raised his lips, and his teeth bit her lips very lightly.

Ye Liuying frowned uncomfortably after opening her eyes.

She blinked a few times and saw Shen Xingzhou in the driver’s seat in confusion.

“woke up?”

Shen Xingzhou pressed the lock screen button of the phone and looked at Ye Liuying with a smile.

His rising tail revealed his good mood, and the peach blossom eyes filled with sunshine.

“Yeah.” Ye Liuying just woke up and didn’t feel very comfortable.

Her thinking was slowed down, and she looked at Shen Xingzhou for a few seconds before straightening up.

She looked at him a little strange, but she couldn’t tell what was strange.

Ye Liuying thought that it was probably because of her weird dream, she pushed the door and got out of the car without saying anything.

When she saw Shen Xingzhou locked the car and approached her, she realized his abnormality.

Shen Xingzhou’s ears…seemed a little red.

After realizing this, Ye Liuying was even more puzzled.

Was she paying too much attention to him?

“Thank you for sending me here.”

Ye Liuying and Shen Xingzhou said hello, then turned to go to the inpatient department.

Shen Xingzhou had no plans to leave.

He followed Ye Liuying unhurriedly, keeping a distance of two meters from her.

“Why are you following me?” Ye Liuying suddenly stopped.

Shen Xingzhou said solemnly, “I’m also here to visit.”

Ye Liuying couldn’t tell the truth and couldn’t drive people away.

She simply ignored him and left on her own.

Meng Linzhou was called to the hospital just after three o’clock in the morning, and he was almost busy by now.

Not long after Ye Liuying got off the bus, she received a call from him and asked her to wait for him at the flower bed at the door.

Meng Linzhou’s time was just right.

Shen Xingzhou listened to Ye Liuying’s phone call, and knew who it was without asking.

“Drinking water?” Shen Xingzhou grabbed Ye Liuying, unscrewed the cap of the mineral water bottle and handed it over.

After drying for more than an hour, the temperature of the mineral water is just right.

“Thank you.” Ye Liuying pursed her lips, not rejecting his kindness.

“You don’t have to be so polite with me.” Seeing that she was well-behaved, Shen Xingzhou wanted to touch her head a little itchy.

“Then you have to be more polite.” Ye Liuying didn’t look at him, only said in a low voice.

“Okay.” It’s really hard to talk this day.

Fortunately, Shen Xingzhou was used to Ye Liuying’s style.

He shrugged nonchalantly, and out of the corner of his eye caught a glimpse of her sipping water. And thinking of her lips, I can’t help but feel a little bit confused.

The oncoming wind seemed to have passed through the wine, otherwise how could he be so wrong today?

But it doesn’t seem to be bad, he doesn’t want to wake up.

The answer lay in her, he wanted to take it but hesitated.

But no matter how hesitant, he couldn’t leave her.

Shen Xingzhou opened his eyebrows in relief.

Ye Liuying glanced at Shen Xingzhou when she put down the water bottle.

She frowned slightly, and her simple eyes looked at him as if condemning him.

“I didn’t do anything.” Shen Xingzhou made a wink at him, his handsome face was rare and innocent.

Ye Liuying lost her temper after being tossed by Shen Xingzhou, but her eyes became more and more strange, “If your brain is burned out, just go and have a look, just turn right here.”

Shen Xingzhou laughed, “But I don’t have a fever.” It was a rant.

“Ah Ying.” Meng Linzhou’s voice interrupted their unnutritious conversation.

Ye Liuying looked up and saw Meng Linzhou in white clothes and black trousers walking towards the light, her slightly tired eyes lit up, then slowly dimmed.

“Cousin.” Ye Liuying left Shen Xingzhou and walked towards Meng Linzhou.

A closer look at Meng Linzhou’s face was even more ugly, the bloodshot eyes were obvious, but when looking at her, he had to smile forcefully.

“Why don’t you go back to rest? I’ll go up and see her myself.” Ye Liuying advised.

“No.” Meng Linzhou shook his head, Xu Xu pulled Ye Liuying in, “I’m used to it.”

He smelled of disinfectant all over him, very different from someone behind him.

Ye Liuying turned her head subconsciously, and saw that Shen Xingzhou was hooking the corner of her lips at her, but strangely she didn’t catch up.

“Chen Mei hasn’t spoken to anyone since she was hospitalized. She is gloomy, don’t be frightened by her for a while…” Meng Linzhou turned around and saw Shen Xingzhou who was left behind.

At this moment, Meng Linzhou suddenly felt that being a cousin with Ye Liuying might be easier than being a lover.

Of course, he was still very happy to see Shen Xingzhou deflated.

After all, if you want to make such a tender and bright Chinese cabbage, you can’t do it without paying a price.

“Aying?” He called her again.

In fact, only a few seconds.

Ye Liuying retracted her gaze from Shen Xingzhou who was in the backlight.

“She should be scolding me in her heart.” When mentioning Chen Mei, Ye Liuying smiled indifferently.

Meng Linzhou also understood their entanglement, and he sighed again, “Actually, you don’t have to bear these burdens.”

Chen Mei spent nearly 100,000 yuan in the intensive care unit for so many days. Now I live in an ordinary six-person ward, and the later treatment and daily expenses are also indispensable. She didn’t stay in the hospital for long, and after she was discharged, Ye Liuying would not be able to live with her, so she would have to spend money on nursing homes and the like.

Although Meng Linzhou didn’t know Ye Liuying’s deposit status very well, he knew that she hadn’t received a very good role in the past two or three years, and the deposit was not much.

“One yard is one yard.” Ye Liuying would not abandon Chen Mei in this situation, no matter how bad her attitude was.

Thinking about it now, she didn’t know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing to be adopted by the Ye family.

“I’m just afraid that your burden will be too heavy.” Meng Linzhou said distressedly.

“That’s what I should do.” Ye Liuying muttered to herself.

She never looked back, so she missed Shen Xingzhou’s suddenly lonely eyes.

Ye Liuying didn’t look forward to meeting Chen Mei, just curious how vicious she would look at her now.

But she is her savior now.

The unwelcome savior.

But she didn’t expect that before entering the door, she heard the unharmonious voice in the ward.

“I see that her eyes are bad, so I kindly give her a hand. What is her attitude?”

“She shouldn’t be able to accept it… Didn’t she say she was just transferred to the hospital? Why didn’t the family members come?”

“Then who knows, I don’t look good at her.”

So Ye Liuying knew that Chen Mei’s current state of mind was even more unhealthy.

Meng Linzhou pushed open the door and walked in, and took Ye Liuying to Chen Mei’s bed.

Chen Mei lives in the bed against the wall and doesn’t speak to the wall.

When Ye Liuying saw her, she also looked over at the first time.

Chen Mei is the winner that money can’t buy old and thin.

Because of the illness, it has lightened a lot, and it looks more obvious in the loose blue and white hospital gown.

The white hair that used to be dyed black every now and then has grown up wantonly without the care of the owner.

Chen Mei wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses and stared at Ye Liuying resentfully through the lenses.

The next second, she said strangely: “What kind of wind is blowing today, why did you bring all my good granddaughters?”

She emphasized the word “good”, and she was dissatisfied with Ye Liuying inside and outside of her words.

Ye Liuying didn’t want to bother with Chen Mei either.

She didn’t plan to sit down either, and looked at Chen Mei condescendingly, “Don’t worry, I’ll leave right away.”

“Little hoof!” Chen Mei was immediately provoked by Ye Liuying, and said angrily, “The Ye family has raised you for so many years, is this how you treat us?”

Her anger has accumulated for almost a month, and she can’t wait to vent it at Ye Liuying, “If I knew this earlier, it would be better to have a dog in the first place!”

“Don’t be noisy.” Meng Linzhou listened to Chen Mei’s insult to Ye Liuying and stopped, “This is the hospital, not your home.”

“What kind of a good person do I still think you are, and dare I like this little hoof?” Chen Mei was not at all embarrassed, and snorted at Ye Liuying, “I have never seen you so shameless,”

Ye Liuying held Meng Linzhou down and looked at Chen Mei disapprovingly, “Have you forgotten who paid for your treatment?”

“You owe the Ye family this!” Chen Mei clenched her fists and said excitedly.

She didn’t have a good time at Chen Jianmin’s house. Earlier, Wang Xia was willing to coax her, but after seeing that she was willing not to take out a dime, her attitude changed.

Chen Mei was just kicked out of the big villa, how could she bear the small bungalow of Chen Jianmin’s house and do housework?

But even at this point, Chen Mei still didn’t realize her mistake, she just thought that Ye Liuying was unwilling to help them.

If she was Ye Liuying, she should be playing at home with her Jin Sun now, how could there be no one to take care of her when she is sick?

“okay.”

Ye Liuying was impatient with Chen Mei’s repeated remarks, “That’s what you’ve done for yourself, and it’s all like this. You still have this attitude, and you never thought about what you would do if I don’t care what you say?”

“You…!” Chen Mei was so angry at Ye Liuying that she pointed at her face for a long time without saying why.

Ye Liuying calmly met Chen Mei’s gaze with a cold expression.
