Chapter 141
"You've been alone lately, right?"

"What?" Zhou Shu didn't quite understand what Li Jinyan meant and was stunned for a moment.

"Recently, whether you are meeting or going out with Yu Yan, you have always been in contact alone, right? Even the bodyguards I arranged couldn't keep up, right?"

Li Jinyan asked coldly, with a bit of displeasure on his face.

Zhou Shu was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized something. Was Li Jinyan doubting her?

"Are you doubting me?" Zhou Shu asked in disbelief.

The hand that was about to reach out suddenly fell and brushed against the man's arm.

Li Jinyan responded with silence, not speaking as acquiescence.

"No wonder? No wonder you are so angry today. That's why you always think that Brother Yu Yan and I have anything to do with each other?"

Zhou Shu sneered and snorted lightly.

He seemed to be so angry that he couldn't speak for a long time.

Li Jinyan was also angered: "Isn't it true? Do you two really have nothing? So much so that my people have to get rid of you."

Zhou Shu was also angered by his questioning attitude and stood up immediately.

She asked herself that she had a clear conscience and a confident attitude.

"Yes, we met in private, so what? I dare say we are innocent!"

"What about you, Li Jinyan? Why are you talking about me? Why am I the only one being monitored? What did you do?"

Zhou Shu suddenly smiled, with a hint of mockery: "You went to see Yu Yao today, right? Nothing happened at all, right?"

Zhou Shu didn't notice it yet when he was outside.

On the way back, he suddenly saw two long curly hairs on Li Jinyan's back.

Chestnut brown is Yu Yao's hair.

She had this hair color, and Zhou Shu also smelled a familiar fragrance, but unfortunately he didn't notice it in the restaurant.

Li Jinyan's eyes flashed with guilt: "Isn't it strange that the two families are cooperating?"

"This cannot be denied. You met Yu Yan in private, right?" Li Jinyan didn't think there was anything wrong.

His strong possessiveness made him unwilling to let go on this matter.

"Yes, I don't admit it, what about you?"

"What does it matter if you are entangled with Yu Yao? What does it matter if you let her spy on me and treat me wantonly?"

Zhou Shu's eyes were completely red, and tears slid down his cheeks desperately.

She could no longer restrain her emotions and shed tears.

Li Jinyan's pupils tightened, and he wanted to say that he actually didn't know this.

It's just that he sends people to monitor him every day, so it would be strange to say he doesn't know.

But he didn't get entangled with Yu Yao. Li Jinyan made it clear every time.

"I didn't get involved with her. The old man assigned her to this project, not me who agreed to it."

Zhou Shu's face became even more sarcastic. She didn't believe such words at all.

"Do you believe it yourself? This is a reasonable reason for her to treat me badly?"

Before Li Jinyan could explain, Zhou Shu continued: "No! It should be said that it was your handwriting. If it weren't for your acquiescence, Yu Yao wouldn't have dared to say those words in front of me."

Li Jinyan opened his mouth, but Zhou Shu didn't listen to the explanation at this time.

She nodded heavily towards Li Jinyan, her vision blurred by tears, and a slight pain arose in her chest.

The pain was so painful that she could barely see the face of the man in front of her.

"Okay, I accept everything you said, and I will treat it as if you have no choice but to do it."

"Then tell me now, do you regard me as a substitute, or do you regard me as a shady mistress?"

Zhou Shu wiped his tears and asked sternly.

Her eyes were stubborn, as if she wanted an answer stubbornly.

Li Jinyan couldn't answer, she was never anyone's substitute.

As for the mistress, it's even more nonsense. But if the Li family doesn't let go, Li Jinyan can't give Zhou Shu any protection.

He fell silent. Under Zhou Shu's expectant eyes, the man turned his head and said nothing.

Zhou Shu was cold, feeling indescribably disappointed. "It was because of the children before, but now?"

Li Jinyan still didn't answer, Zhou Shu took a deep breath, she had had enough.

Zhou Shu made a difficult decision in her heart and she was unwilling to continue.

"Everything is not what you think, don't think too much."

Li Jinyan had countless words of explanation on his lips, but in the end there was only one sentence left.

In fact, he didn't even want to explain it to himself.

Zhou Shu's heart fell to the bottom in an instant. After all, she was just a pet.

It was her wishful thinking that Li Jinyan was sincere to her.

"Okay, I'm overthinking it, but now that we have money and goods, I will leave."

Zhou Shu stood up, glanced at Li Jinyan steadily, and then stopped talking.

She turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly Li Jinyan grabbed her wrist.

The man pulled her back with a stern look on his face.

"Who asked you to leave?" Li Jinyan asked sharply.

"Why don't you let me go? I'm just a plaything to you. I can change it to someone else, right?"

"You are not allowed to leave without my permission!"

Li Jinyan grabbed her shoulders with such force that it hurt Zhou Shu.

Tears welled up in her eyes: "You are a double standard, because you are the one who is entangled with others, so you can treat me indifferently like this?"

Li Jinyan's heart tightened, and there was a complicated look in his eyes.

It's obvious that she's taking advantage of herself, right?Li Jinyan's eyes dimmed.

He made up his mind and spoke coldly.

"Zhou Shu, let me ask you again, are you sure you really want to leave?"

"What if I say yes, will you really agree to let me go?!" Zhou Shu said angrily.

Li Jinyan let go of his hand and turned slightly away.

"You decide for yourself. If you want to leave in your current situation, I won't stop you, but only I can protect you. You should know that, right?"

The man spread his hands and stepped aside.

Zhou Shu was stunned for a moment. When she met the man's meaningful eyes, she felt like she was being seen through.

Li Jinyan knew that Zhou Shu would not leave.

But Li Jinyan didn't like this.

He didn't like forcing Zhou Shu to do anything. He had always been the one worrying about gains and losses.

Zhou Shu's eyes became even redder, and she suddenly smiled as she lowered her eyes.

"I understand." After saying that, Zhou Shu went upstairs on his own.

In addition to being disappointed, she also felt a little guilty for no reason, and felt a little scared from the bottom of her heart.

These emotions piled up and rushed towards Zhou Shu overwhelmingly.

She couldn't bear it for a moment and went straight upstairs.

He covered himself in the quilt and bit his lower lip, looking painful and trembling uncontrollably.

Zhou Shu clearly felt that she was out of control emotionally. She had always been worried and afraid.

Does this mean that she has some inappropriate emotions towards Li Jinyan?

Especially the defense-breaking questioning just now made Zhou Shu feel bad.

She clearly felt that she was truly feeling her feelings at that moment.

She was so scared, all of this made her feel insecure.

Zhou Shu couldn't accept it either. She was afraid that she would forget why she did all this.

She doesn't want to fall in love.

Before finding out, Li Jinyan might be her enemy, and she couldn't let it sink in.
