Zhao Anyue received a text message from Qi Siwen, saying that she had sent the two documents to her.

So Zhao Anyue went out and came to the café two streets away nearby according to the address Qi Siwen said.

"How do you dress—"

It's not even October, and Qi Siwen is already wearing a long trench coat.

"Heh, a person is light and simple, and when the sky changes, he can add clothes casually. Doesn't it look too straight?"

Qi Siwen's smile was still gentle, but his face was so pale that it made people feel a little distant. And the glasses on the bridge of his nose today are not ordinary myopic lenses, but a touch of brown.

"No, it's just that your temperament is the same as usual...... It's not quite the same. ”

In Zhao Anyue's view, Qi Siwen dresses in light and cold tones most of the time. This trench coat is pure black, which makes his whole temperament look taboo and mysterious. Compared with the low-key plain dress on weekdays, it really has a special charm.

With a red face, Zhao Anyue lowered her head slightly. Reaching for the zipper on the file bag, he fiddled with it.

"I thought it would be good for you to help me deliver a few pieces of paper, or just hand them over to Xiaoyin. They also helped me come over. ”

Zhao Anyue said embarrassedly, and politely ordered with the waiter.

"It's okay, I'm not very busy anyway. Besides, didn't you also say it, Xiaoyin finally asked you for a favor, and you lost the manuscript and were very uneasy. If I give it to him directly, won't it be tantamount to selling you?"

Zhao Anyue: "......"

"Thank you then. Oh, Professor Yao's words...... Did he tell him why he left?"

"I didn't ask. Qi Siwen looked at Zhao Anyue and replied simply and casually, "You care a lot?"

"Not anymore. Zhao Anyue raised her hand and stroked the long hair in her ear, "It's just that Professor Yao mentioned it to me that day......"

When Zhao Anyue said this, she suddenly stopped. Because she didn't forget that she seemed to have mentioned it to Qi Siwen before, asking him if he knew Bai Luoya, and if he didn't know Bai Luoya and other topics.

And that time, Qi Siwen's reaction seemed to be a little abnormal.

He said that for the project of the Thai Scene, he had carefully understood Bai Luoya's design style, but he was not interested in Bai Luoya as a person.

Just when Zhao Anyue was suddenly a little embarrassed and didn't know how to answer, Qi Siwen suddenly coughed very badly.

"You, are you alright?"

Zhao Anyue looked at him with concern, and at the same time handed over her glass of light lemon warm water.

"No need to ......" Qi Siwen raised his hand and pushed it on the edge of the glass, "I'm sorry, I ......"

Qi Siwen stood up and turned to leave: "I'll go to the bathroom." ”

After Qi Siwen left, Zhao Anyue always felt uneasy in her heart.

She felt that something didn't seem right with Qi Siwen today, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.

Is it just a matter of physical discomfort?

Zhao Anyue recalled, his face was very pale, his voice was a little vibrato, his movements were stiff, and under the brown glasses, he seemed to be able to see a slight swelling at the corner of his eye......

However, it seems that he was discharged from the hospital early and did not recover from his injuries, right?

Zhao Anyue flipped through her phone, replied to Shen Yinhe, and flipped through the three drawings casually. On the back of the last one, a little dark red blood caused Zhao Anyue to gasp!

"Qi Siwen!"

Standing at the door of the men's bathroom, Zhao Anyue anxiously shouted inside.

A middle-aged man walked out of it, looked up and down at Zhao Anyue, who was about to cry, and said, "Miss, there's no one inside." ”

"No one?"

In the surprised eyes of the middle-aged fat man, Zhao Anyue broke into the door directly.

The toilet here is not very large, and there are indeed no Qi Siwen in the few pools and doors that you can see through at a glance.

It's just a paper basket under the sink, and the paper towels on it are all fresh red!

Qi Siwen ......

Wait for Zhao Anyue to return to the hall and return to the table where they had sat before.

He saw that Qi Siwen's cup of coffee had not yet dissipated the heat and steam.

And under his cup of lemon tea, there is still a water stain.

Zhao Anyue took a deep breath and looked at the unread message on her phone-

[I have something to do, so I'll go first.] 】

An inexplicable tear poured out of her eyes, and Zhao Anyue desperately called the phone back.

A deep and warm voice came from the other end of the phone: "An An, I'm sorry, I'm ......"

"Qi Siwen, don't lie to me, what's wrong with you? Are you injured or sick?"

"I'm really fine, there's just something to deal with on the other hand. ”

Leaning against the door of the fire escape in the underground garage of the mall, Qi Siwen held the phone between his shoulders and tightened the bandages on his shoulders with both hands.

"Qi Siwen, do you have any secrets or troubles? I know...... On the premise that I can't accept your feelings, if I say anything about treating you as a friend, it will seem that I hate you. However, I trust my instincts and feelings. You're being very bad right now, aren't you?Do you need help?Can I do anything for you?Even if it's a normal friend, I have a reason and a motive to care about you......"

"An An ......" Qi Siwen gritted his teeth and pressed back a small rib protruding under his shoulder and arm.

The nerve-tearing pain is almost beyond the limits of what a human can bear.

The sound of his breathing became very frightening, and the edges of his voice trembled.

"You can't help me, and I won't need you to help me...... If I could, I should ...... Should have known you earlier. In that case, maybe I could-"

Maybe I can teach you not to trust anyone easily, not to overdraw your own goodness......

"Qi Siwen!" Zhao Anyue's tears rolled in her eyes, "What trouble have you encountered, does it have anything to do with me?" If you insist on not saying anything, then I can only think that you are close to me, and everything you do for me is close to me with a purpose...... I...... Or Shen Xingye. Qi Siwen, if you use me to hurt me, I won't blame you, but only Hoshino. If you're coming for him, I'm not going to give up. ”

"An An, I believe...... You are the most persistent, strongest, and bravest girl I have ever met. ”

Qi Siwen hung up the phone and took out the small snow-white medicine bottle from his pocket.

An'an, I'm sorry.

If I don't, you'll be treated more cruelly. I'm so powerless that I can do whatever I can – to minimize the damage done to you. Even if it's done with your own hands.

Wait a little longer, okay?Shen Xingye's fault was the punishment he had to bear. You shouldn't have gotten involved in his feuds in the first place.

When I solve all this, I'll take you ...... Run away.

Zhao Anyue wiped the tears on her face, gritted her teeth, and when she called the phone again, there was only Qi Siwen's ruthless refusal to answer the busy sound.

At this time, she only felt that her heart was in a mess, and the few clues that had been clear in her mind had been broken into slag at this time.

Who is Qi Siwen, what is his purpose, and what kind of people has he provoked?

Zhao Anyue felt that behind all the concealment, if it was not calculation, it was protection.

She would rather believe that Qi Siwen has never given up protection for herself, and has never carefully calculated.

But...... She couldn't guarantee that he would do the same to Shen Xingye.

Zhao Anyue felt a little thirsty, she reached back and touched the cup of lemon tea on her table.

Just wanted to pick it up, but suddenly an inexplicable hand stretched out from behind her and snatched the cup directly!

"Zhao Anyue, what do you think is the difference between you and a green tea doing this?"

Zhao Anyue was stunned for a moment, turned around, and saw Shen Qianyi sitting in the position in front of Qi Siwen with red eyes.

She stared at Zhao Anyue, her teeth clenching her cherry-red lower lip. The beautiful nails scratched the edge of the glass, and the stubborn tears still fell down like beads that did not fight.

"Xiaoqian, aren't you abroad? Why did you come back suddenly......

Zhao Anyue was taken aback, and her heart froze into the freezing point.

To be honest, in the face of Shen Qianyi, she didn't feel that she had anything to stand by. But seeing the little girl's aggrieved and crystal tears, she really felt that it was not the right time to tell her about these things.

"Xiaoqian, calm down and listen to me first. ”

As a result, before the words fell, Shen Qianyi first pursed the corners of her mouth fiercely, and then took a big sip of Zhao Anyue's cup of lemon tea.

"I'm so calm. If that's not enough—" With that, she poured the rest of the water directly above her head and directly on her head!

"Xiaoqian!

"That's all right, right?"

After speaking, Shen Qianyi sneered and threw Zhao Anyue a wallet.

"Don't tell me anything about catching rape in bed, do you want to tell me that the person who drank coffee with you here just now is not Qi Siwen, but some other man?"

Zhao Anyue glanced at Qi Siwen's wallet, it turned out that he didn't come back from the bathroom to pick it up.

"Xiaoqian, listen to me explain to you......" Zhao Anyue's heart was messy, but her mouth was unprecedentedly playing the potential that she thought was not suitable for sales-as soon as she was nervous, she couldn't understand anything.

"I know Qi Siwen likes you. I've asked you before, haven't I?"

Shen Qianyi threw her wallet on Zhao Anyue's face, bit her lip vigorously and said, "But why don't you tell me that the reason why he has always refused to accept me is because he has always liked you?

"Xiao Qian......" Zhao Anyue took out a tissue and handed it to Shen Qianyi, "Can you wipe it first......?" I admit that Qi Siwen has a kind of good impression of me that is beyond that of a friend, but in my heart, except for Shen Xingye, he has really never been able to tolerate more than half of them. I admit that I didn't say no very bluntly, and that's because Qi Siwen didn't say very bluntly that he wanted to be with me. After all, legally, from the day I met Qi Siwen, I was already Shen Xingye's wife. Xiaoqian, to tell you the truth, I don't know what Qi Siwen thinks in his heart, but maybe he really tried to get along with you. ”

"Can you try to get along? He would dare to do such a thing as borrowing a knife to kill someone for your sake. Do you still have any thoughts about trying to get along with a girl like me? Zhao Anyue, don't play me like a fool anymore, what you can't get from my brother, Qi Siwen can give. How forbearant do you think you are, so that you have been obedient to my eldest brother for so long? In fact, you have already earned a sense of accomplishment in the spare tire of the next house!"
